Chapter 97 Send Your Majesty to the Funeral Day (24)

Shi Yu didn't care about Zhuang Xianyou and Yun Shang's embarrassing appearance at all, and wanted to lure her here to get rid of them quickly, so he didn't hesitate to put himself in danger. He really hated her to a certain extent.

It's a pity that even this can't hurt her at all.

She just liked the way Zhuang Xianyou wanted to kill her but couldn't.

Shi Yu wiped the hairpin from her dress and put it back into her hair. She watched as the guards carefully folded a few flowers and wrapped them up, and surrounded the others.

The face scarves of the men in black on the ground had been torn off, and they looked like faces, and their bodies were all transported down.

Two or three people stayed here, and the rest all went to report back.

Shi Yu also followed them.

When Zhuang Xianyou asked Shi Yu to accompany her to the backyard for a stroll, he originally wanted to refuse, but Zhuang Xianyou insisted. He thought that he could not offend her now, and Shi Yu would definitely understand him, so he agreed. A team of guards was specially sent to watch.

Gu Beiting originally thought that nothing would happen like this, but in the end...

Hearing the hurried footsteps outside, Gu Beiting immediately walked out of the house, and saw Zhuang Xian walking towards the water tank in a hurry, without even noticing that he was here.

Gu Beiting frowned unhappily.

But... what happened to their blood?

Gu Beiting called the guards who followed him to stop, seeing that he was also injured Gu Beiting immediately became vigilant, "What happened?"

The guard immediately knelt down and told everything about what happened just now.

Gu Beiting's alarm rang loudly.

"How could there be assassins here! How did they get in here! Quick, find those villains in the sealed temple! Send more people here to guard!"

He hurriedly ordered to go down.

"Yes!"

The guard hurried to pass the order.

Shi Yu, who came down from the back mountain, happened to see this scene, she twitched the corners of her lips, as expected, the person Gu Beiting cared about most was himself.

The friendship of sharing weal and woe, and the people next to him who can benefit from sharing the same bed are not as important as his own safety.What's more...

Those people were not coming for him.

Gu Beiting was wandering in the corridor very uneasy, just as he was about to go back to his room, he saw Shi Yu standing there, her body was covered in blood, and her face was also splattered with blood.

Seeing her like this, Gu Beiting suddenly thought of the scene where she directly killed Yun Lu.

His pupils shrunk slightly, and Shi Yu's eyes were not escaped by the fright that flashed across him.

Shi Yu lowered her eyes and walked briskly to Gu Beiting.

"emperor."

"You..." His expression was complicated for a moment and then immediately switched to a concerned expression, "Ayu, are you okay? Are you not injured?"

"No, it's all other people's blood, don't worry, Your Majesty." Shi Yu said softly.

Seeing that Gu Beiting didn't intend to continue asking Shi Yu, he was puzzled and said, "Your Majesty, those men in black on the back mountain seemed to be targeting the empress. I was standing next to the empress to protect her. Those people are very fierce."

Only then did Gu Beiting listen.

Queen?

The queen is the prime minister's daughter, why would anyone want to do something to her?Picture what?
"But the servant girl can't figure it out."

Gu Beiting was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Where can't you figure it out?"

Shi Yu looked at Gu Beiting with soft eyes and said softly, "Your Majesty, poisonous water was splashed on the flower thorns on the back mountain. Those people seem to know that the empress will go."

"Fortunately, the queen asked me to pick them. I thought those flower thorns would hurt my hands too much. I used a silver hairpin to cut them. Only then did I find out that they are poisonous."

"Your Majesty, we still need to investigate this matter carefully."

Hearing these words, Gu Beiting had a guess in his heart, he suppressed his guess and looked at Shi Yu tenderly.

"Ayu, aren't you..."

Although he didn't say what he said later, both of them knew each other well.

Shi Yu had a feud with the Prime Minister's Mansion, so she should be happy to see Zhuang Xianyou in danger, and she would be happier if she died, but she actually saved Zhuang Xianyou.

This seemed strange to Gu Beiting.

"Yes." Shi Yu looked up at Gu Beiting's eyes, "But the emperor still needs her, and everything I do is to make the emperor better."

"I also hope that the emperor can remember what he promised his servants."

Gu Beiting was moved in his heart.

That's right, from the cold palace to the present, only she has been helping him, and everything she does and what she says are for his good.

"Ayu, don't worry, I will never forget!"

"Ayu, I will investigate this matter carefully, you go to take a bath and cleanse first, so as not to feel uncomfortable."

Shi Yu saluted and nodded, "Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Seeing the back of Shi Yu leaving, Gu Beiting called the guard who was on the scene just now and asked for details.

"At that time, the queen asked Shi Yu to pick the flowers?"

The guard lowered his head and said, "Yes! Those flowers have thorns, and Aunt Yu wanted us to pick them. But the Empress insisted that Aunt Yu pick them herself."

Gu Beiting frowned, "And then?"

"Aunt Yu tore a piece of fabric and used a hairpin to get one off, and later found that the hairpin turned black and the flower thorns were poisonous."

"Your Majesty, that flower is very common and non-toxic, but suddenly it was poisonous and Aunt Yu became alert, and then the man in black came out. Aunt Yu has been protecting the empress."

Gu Beiting frowned even deeper.

"Your Majesty, Aunt Yu told us to look at those flowers. Your Majesty, what should we do?"

"Burn it, so as not to accidentally injure others."

"Yes!"

The guard went to do it immediately.

Gu Beiting stood on the spot and slightly looked up at Tianmanmu in thought.

It was Zhuang Xianyou's suggestion to ask Shi Yu to accompany her to pick flowers in the backyard, emphasizing that it was Zhuang Xianyou who asked Shi Yu to pick flowers by herself.

He remembered that Shi Yu said just now that those men in black were all heading towards Zhuang Xianyou, and she had been by Zhuang Xianyou's side to protect her.

But is there a possibility that those people in black will attack Zhuang Xianyou precisely because Shi Yu is standing beside Zhuang Xianyou.

He clenched his hands slowly.

Shi Yu was so considerate of him that she even put aside her genocide for the time being to protect Zhuang Xianyou. Her kindness to him was genuine.

His mother was gone, and he couldn't lose Shiyu anymore.

Zhuang Xianyou, you are too much!

in the bedroom.

Shi Yu washed the blood off his face and hands before taking off his blood-stained clothes and stepping into the steaming bathtub behind the white curtain.

She closed her eyes and felt the relief after physical fatigue.

Squeak.

The sound of the door opening and closing sounded, and Shi Yu opened her eyes. Through the white curtain, she could vaguely see the figure coming in, tall and straight.

She chuckled.

"My lord, it's not right."

Gu Zhan stood with his back to her, "It's safe at this time."

Shi Yu was noncommittal.

Gu Zhan sneered, "You still have expectations of him now?"

"What?" Shi Yu was puzzled.

"I saw it when you were talking to him just now. You deliberately wanted him to realize that Zhuang Xianyou was responsible for this assassination, but have you guessed how he will deal with it?"
