"Auntie...... Are you alright......?"

Licorice was not at ease, reached out and tugged at her sleeve, and Gu Ruan Ruan raised her head as if she had suddenly come back to her senses.

However, the frenzy in his eyes that had not yet subsided still scared Licorice!

This kind of gaze is too strange.

It should be said that since arriving at the Hou Mansion, Gu Ruan Ruan has become more and more strange to her......

Gu Ruan Ruan didn't notice Licorice's fear, she just suddenly felt very comfortable.

All the while, she trapped herself in her old shell, always thinking about things with the same way she used to think, and it was only now that she really realized that everything had changed.

The times she lived in had changed, and so had her identity.

In this era when imperial power is heaven, human life is as cheap as mustard, and she is still resting on her laurels in her former thinking!

It turns out that it is like to have a backer who holds power in his hands......

Everything that hinders her can be solved so easily, but it's ridiculous that she is still worried because of such a subordinate.

She didn't even dare to imagine what kind of happiness life would be if this power was in her own hands!

Those things from those love and love, Gu Ruan Ruan Ruan actually felt a little boring at this moment.

If......

If she could have such power one day, wouldn't everything she wanted be at her fingertips?

Wouldn't everything she hated be easily erased?

Her gaze wandered wantonly, and there were many things that licorice couldn't understand in a flash, and finally calmed down.

However, this calmness made Licorice shiver from the bottom of his heart.

She couldn't help but speak, "Auntie...... Did the people of the second prince go too far today, or let's distance ourselves from the second prince after this time......"

Gu Ruan Ruan withdrew his hand and looked at her with a smile: "It's just the life of a despicable person, what's the matter, are you scared?" ”

Licorice subconsciously shook his head: "No...... There is no ......"

Gu Ruan Ruan stared at her eyes: "That's good, you are my confidant, you want to follow me to enjoy glory and wealth in the future, don't be frightened by this little thing." ”

"Besides, people like Zhang Ming deserve such an end, have you forgotten how he threatened us just now?"

Licorice did not dare to speak.

Gu Ruan Ruan retracted his gaze: "Okay, you bring the pen and paper, and I will write the rest of the Fat Field Fangzi to the second prince." ”

Hearing this, Licorice breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought that Gu Ruan Ruan had finally listened to it and was going to dissociate herself from the second prince and others, but she didn't know that at this moment, there was already a seed called ambition planted in Gu Ruan Ruan's heart.

After licorice got the recipe, he immediately sent it to the person sent by the second prince to connect, but when he went back, he saw a few familiar faces, pulling passers-by as if asking something.

Licorice was shocked and immediately returned to the place where she lived.

"Auntie, the slave maid saw that there were people from the Hou Mansion asking questions everywhere, should they find us here?"

Gu Ruan Ruan looked very indifferent: "What are you afraid of, what Zhang Ming, do you know it?" Is there still this person in this world? ”

Licorice was stunned, yes, Zhang Ming was dead, just an hour ago.

She saw with her own eyes the blood stains all over the floor, and she cleaned it with disgust.

"The slave and maid keep the bloody soil a little farther away......"

"No," Gu Ruan Ruan waved his hand and said, "Isn't there a pear tree in the yard?" I remember that once upon a time there was one in my sister's yard, and when the season came, the fruit was big and good. ”

"I have heard that this man's blood, his flesh, is the most fertile of these things, so bury the bloody earth under the pear tree in the courtyard. Maybe the pears I have here this year will be bigger and sweeter than those in my sister's yard. ”

Licorice looked at Gu Ruan Ruan and said these words with a smile, and her fingers trembled during the rest.

However, she didn't dare to say a word of rebuttal.

"What if, the people of the Hou Mansion find this place and dig up the soil......."

Gu Ruan Ruan laughed lightly: "So what? It's just a disobedient wild dog, and I want to bite my beast and kill the fat soil, is it also a crime? Who would dare to say that it was human blood? Who has the proof? ”

Until this moment, licorice did not dare to say a word more.

The fear in her heart had reached the extreme.

It was as if there was still a sticky and disgusting feeling on the fingertips of the soil mixed with human blood when it had just been cleaned.

But......

No one can say for sure if she will be next......

......

Gu Baiyu ran into some trouble.

I have been looking for Zhang Ming in the city for a whole day, but there is no clue.

"Master Hou, do you think Zhang Ming will hide from Gu Ruanruan?"

Gu Baiyu was holding a book in his hand, a little worried.

Xiao Yanlin had just come back from the barracks at this moment, and he still had some coldness on his body, when he saw Gu Baiyu coming over, he turned his body slightly sideways: "It's dirty, wait for me to change my clothes." ”

In the gap between changing clothes, there was a message from the secret guard.

"The last person appeared at the intersection outside Gu Ruanruan's yard?"

The Dark Guard nodded: "Then there was no trace." ”

Xiao Yanlin nodded: "Got it, go down." ”

Gu Baiyu frowned: "She's really so bold?" If you hide people from yourself, you won't be afraid that I will bring them to find them? ”

Xiao Yanlin thought a little further than she thought, hesitated for a while, and still opened his mouth to say his guess.

"I'm afraid Zhang Ming won't be able to find it."

Gu Baiyu raised his head suddenly: "What does Master Hou mean......"

Then he shook his head again, incredulous: "No, it shouldn't be possible, she only brought licorice, how could two girls give a man in the prime of life to ......"

"Don't forget, she also has the help of the second prince."

Speaking of the second prince, Xiao Yanlin's tone was rarely a little disdainful.

"His usual method, when he encounters something unsatisfactory, he must eradicate it."

Gu Baiyu still couldn't believe it.

If Gu Ruan Ruan was an ordinary person, she would believe it.

But she didn't know Gu Ruanruan's origin.

Although Gu Ruan Ruan had those naïve thoughts in her heart that she had never heard of, it was undeniable that it was that naïve idea that made her feel that Gu Ruan Ruan would not cause trouble.

She is a little smart, but Gu Baiyu remembers it clearly, life in the previous life was Gu Ruanruan's bottom line.

It is precisely because of this that no matter how much Gu Baiyu dislikes her, he never thought of asking for her life.

If Xiao Yanlin's guess is true, and Gu Ruan Ruan really broke the bottom line in his previous life, then ......

Gu Baiyu's eyes became cold little by little.

Zhang Ming made a mistake, and he should be punished by law, instead of allowing those who have power in their hands to be so careless of human life!

"Master Hou, you have to help me with this, whether Zhang Ming is alive or dead, we have to find him."

Xiao Yanlin had already changed his clothes at this time, and took the person in his arms.

He could see the fierceness in his little wife's eyes just now, and it was very cute.

He had felt that Gu Baiyu was a little too kind to Gu Ruan Ruan before, so it was better to be fierce, and the little paws would benefit more, so that he would not be bullied in the future.

Although under his protection, no one dares to bully.

Gu Baiyu didn't get Xiao Yanlin's answer for a long time, and when he raised his head, he saw that he was staring at him motionless.

Gu Baiyu was a little embarrassed: "Didn't I ...... just now?" Murderous ......"

She did have the idea of being ruthless just now, Xiao Yanlin is so sensitive, she must be able to detect it.

Gu Baiyu was a little apprehensive.

Shouldn't it annoy Xiao Yanlin?

However, what she didn't know was that she was like this, but Xiao Yanlin liked it very much.

"How so? It's good to be fierce, and it's rare to recruit people. ”

"Master Hou!"

Gu Baiyu was a little embarrassed by her, but Xiao Yanlin lowered his head to kiss her at this time, and the beard that he had not had time to shave off was a little prickly, Gu Baiyu wanted to hide, but he was firmly controlled in his arms, and there was no escape, so he could only let the beard prick her a little itchy and painful, and even the bottom of her heart rippled.

After making trouble for a while, Xiao Yanlin regretted it.

Gu Baiyu has a thin skin, which is thin in the real sense, and her face is delicate, and after making trouble for a while, her cheeks are pricked red.

Xiao Yanlin's tone was a little distressed: "Does it hurt?" Blame me. ”

Gu Baiyu touched his face, it was hot and hot: "No...... It doesn't hurt. ”

She felt like she was getting weird.

She doesn't like sloppy men, but Xiao Yanlin's slightly bearded face is handsome, and she has the charm of a mature man, which makes her blush and heartbeat.

Xiao Yanlin understood too well what his little wife was thinking.

Seeing the water in her eyes, she smiled softly: "Madame likes it?" ”

Gu Baiyu was embarrassed: "I don't like it!" Sloppy! ”

Xiao Yan turned around: "Then I'll go to clean my face and go to the ......."

"Don't!"

Gu Baiyu hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled his sleeve: "Today, it's too late today, let's go tomorrow morning, clean up tomorrow morning and go to the court." ”

Xiao Yanlin glanced up at the bright sun.

It's "Too late?" ”

Gu Baiyu also realized that he had said the wrong thing, this time he was really embarrassed, and he stomped his feet and turned around to leave.

How could Xiao Yanlin give her this opportunity?

One hand easily picked the person up.

"Where?"

"You put me down!"

"First of all, where are you going?"

Gu Baiyu was annoyed by her mistakes and omissions, and felt that it was particularly embarrassing to be controlled by someone with one hand, and her eyes turned red somehow during the struggle.

"What are you doing! Put me down! I'm so angry! ”

Xiao Yanlin immediately put the person down, but he didn't want to let go.

"What kind of red eyes are you?"

Gu Baiyu raised his hand to cover his eyes: "I don't know!" ”

She felt strange to herself.

Recently, I have always had a lot of emotional ups and downs because of a little thing, and sometimes I have a little temper with Xiao Yanlin, and then I feel that I am making trouble unreasonably.

While warning herself that she can't do this next time, Xiao Yanlin is busy enough, and she should be a good helper;

On the one hand, I can't control my sudden emotions.

Her mood was wrong, and Xiao Yanlin also noticed it.

He put aside his playfulness and helped the man to sit next to him.

Then he knelt on one knee, his eyes at eye level with Gu Baiyu.

"What's wrong? Tell me. ”
