late night song

Chapter 7 Goodbye Jingnian
The first task assigned by the leader was successfully completed. Although Gu Yuchu did not take action, Yuan Xin was involved in a life-threatening lawsuit and was dismissed from office and imprisoned.

An important member of the imperial court was involved in the case. After the Qijing government had prepared all the evidence, the case was transferred to Dali Temple for handling.

In addition to this matter, after an in-depth investigation by Dali Temple, it was also found that Yuan Xin was attached to Hong Wang Qi Jinye and had been guilty of official misconduct, disregard of human life, corruption and bribery for many years. Finally, after consulting Emperor Ming, Yuan Xin was sentenced to death and imprisoned. Qiu Hou asked to behead.

But there was no mention of the old case in the official newspaper.

Emperor Ming was very angry about the fact that Yuan Xin formed a party with King Hong for personal gain.

In order to protect King Hong's status, Concubine Xian forcefully resisted all the blame for her son's crimes. In the end, she was deprived of her title by Emperor Ming and was thrown into the cold palace. Although King Hong escaped, he was still punished to spend half a year in seclusion.

Yuan Xin is the key to the Yuchilin case. Gu Yuchu thought that if he were caught, he would be able to clear up the clouds and wipe out the family's injustice, so she really couldn't accept the current result.

But she thought that Yuan Xinren was still in prison, and with King Qin's strength, there was always a chance for him to speak, so she advised herself not to be upset and just wait patiently.

There is another little thing, which is strange to say.

After Gu Yuchu returned home from Yinyun Temple, his maid Jiu'er disappeared without a trace.

Liansheng inquired from the housekeeper Xu Zhang and said that she was sent out of the palace because she broke the vase given to the prince by Master Zhongshu Ling.

After taking care of this little trouble and not having to do it himself, Gu Yuchu's depression over Yuan Xin's case dissipated a little.

These days, she carefully thought about everything that happened before and after Yinyun Temple, and suddenly discovered that there was another mystery in it.

That day when she was in Yipinju, she noticed someone was following her. When Yuan Xin was about to kill someone and silence him, Princess Nanxi suddenly appeared to stop her. It didn't seem like a coincidence, but why could she know her whereabouts so clearly?

Judging from Princess Nanxi's hostility and bossy attitude towards her on the cliff, she admired Qi Jian extremely.

Gu Yuchu recalled that Liansheng once told her that Princess Qin went to Jiangnan to recuperate after getting married. Except for Emperor Ming and the Queen, no one had seen her true appearance in the past three years.

Perhaps Princess Nanxi learned that Princess Qin had returned from Jiangnan, and out of curiosity, she bribed Jiu'er, who had just entered the palace, to monitor Princess Qin's every move for her.

That day, she learned from Jiu'er that Princess Qin was leaving the palace, so she quietly followed her. Unexpectedly, she accidentally broke into the murder scene in Yinyun Temple.

Thinking about it this way, the previous question was explained.

Yuan Xin was in charge of Dongqi's criminal law, and the girl involved in the case was an insignificant servant, so whether she was silenced on the spot or not, he would naturally be able to conceal the truth with his power.

Therefore, in order to cut off Yuan Xin's escape in one fell swoop, this case must have circumstantial evidence that witnessed the entire murder process and is not afraid of the power of the Minister of Punishment.

As the Princess of Qin, Gu Yuchu naturally has this ability, but she was involved in a murder case as soon as she returned to Qidu, which inevitably arouses suspicion. Therefore, Princess Nanxi is the best candidate.

Firstly, because of her noble status, Yuan Xin did not dare to make a move against her. Secondly, because of her aunt's old grudge, she had been hating Yuan Xin for a long time. If such a big thing happened, she would not let it go easily.

In this way, Xun Shadow Order's assassination mission was just a hook. King Qin used Gun Nanxi's curiosity about Princess Qin to draw her into this carefully designed situation.

Finally, when the plan was accomplished, Jiu'er was sent out of the palace and gave Princess Nanxi a warning to prevent her from finding anyone to monitor the palace again.

All linked together, achieving multiple results with one move, so powerful!

Gu Yuchu was so impressed that he fell to the ground.

…………

After this incident, the weather gradually became hotter, and the princess's life became more busy.

The various course arrangements are hundreds of times more tiring than practicing Qigong. Calligraphy, poetry, ritual music, tea art, female celebrities, costumes, and even business management and accounting are required to be studied.

Is it possible that King Qin really wants to hand over the management of the palace to himself?

Gu Yuchu thought irritably, and then when he saw his ugly handwriting on the case, he got so angry that he twisted into a ball and threw it out of the window.

It was really uncomfortable to have to dress neatly in such a sultry weather. Anyway, there was basically no one in the room. Gu Yuchu threw away the wolf hair, took off his shoes and socks, and then raised his hand to pick up the lotus. It’s so satisfying to eat a few bites of cut cantaloupe!
This is the beautiful life that rich and powerful people should enjoy!

She put her hands under her head, crossed her legs, and indulged in this moment of freedom.

Qi Jian was passing by the lake on his way down, and the thrown paper happened to fall at his feet. When he opened it, he saw that the word "Gu" was written in such an ugly way. He couldn't help but frown, wondering if this girl was serious. practise? !
He originally wanted to go back and change into regular clothes and take a look around, but in this case, he might as well go there now.

Before he entered the door, he looked at the girl from the window looking carefree and barefoot, and he laughed helplessly.

Qi Jian took very light steps and gently pushed the door open.

But Gu Yuchu immediately noticed that someone with profound internal skills was approaching, and she instinctively became alert. The moment she opened the frame and stepped into the Nuan Pavilion, she stood up and took to the air, and quickly put the dagger at the throat of the uninvited guest.

"Who is here?" she threatened bluntly.Before the man under the knife could reply, she looked down and saw the ferocious unicorn pattern on the sleeves of the uninvited guest, and was shocked.

Damn it, it’s King Qin.

Gu Yuchu quickly put away the knife, then took a big step back, hesitating on how to speak.

"We haven't seen him for a few years. His skills are getting better and better, and he has grown a lot taller."

Qi Jian reached out and gently touched Gu Yuchu's forehead.

"My lord forgive me."

The woman in front of him knelt down on one knee in a panic and saluted, saying only four words and no more words.

When Qi Jian saw her bare feet, he raised the corners of his lips, bent down with his hands behind his back and joked, "How come I lost my shoes and socks while writing?"

Gu Yuchu blushed in embarrassment, thinking that she was really embarrassed. She lowered her head and remained silent.

Qi Lian stepped forward, picked her up, and weighed her strong but thin body. Thinking back to her explosive power when wielding the knife, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed. She had indeed suffered a lot in these years.

Gu Yuchu was in his arms, not daring to move. His body was completely rigid, as if it would break into pieces at the slightest touch.And this face was even more heated, as if it could set the entire Prince Qin's palace on fire.

Qi Jian gently placed her on the pillow. It was really funny to see her embarrassed and panicked look. He couldn't help but scratch her nose and said caringly:

"Don't be greedy for coolness."

After that, he began to look for the shoes and socks that were thrown aside, as if he was going to put them on for her himself.

When Gu Yu first saw this, he rushed forward, grabbed the shoes and socks, and put them on quickly, and then stood stupidly in front of the frame, not knowing where to move his hands, not knowing where to look.

Qi Zhen finally couldn't help but laugh. It seems that time cannot change a person's nature. She was so naughty and unruly when she was a child.

After coughing twice and adjusting his mood, the man sat on the sofa and asked, "Are you still used to living here these days? Are your injuries better?"

Gu Yuchu huddled in the corner, rubbing his toes on the ground, lowering his head in silence, thinking about what to say to him.

Seeing how nervous she was, Qi Zhen stretched out his hand to pull her towards him, and then held her hands.

Although this hand is small, it is rough. There are many calluses on the palm from holding the sword for a long time.

He couldn't help but think of those peaceful days in the past. When he was pretending to be sick, his once soft and tender little hands reluctantly handed over the half piece of hawthorn cake in his mouth, and for a moment he regretted sending her away so cruelly.

"Xiaochu, don't be afraid, raise your head and let me take a good look." Qi Jian said very gently.

These words were like a glass of rice wine drunk in winter, which moistened the body and occupied the consciousness domineeringly. Gu Yuchu slowly raised his head and met the bright but deep eyes that he had longed for for many years.

Qi Jiazi looked at her carefully. This child had really grown up. She had beautiful features and was as calm as water, but her brows were brave and determined, and her almond-shaped eyes were as bright as stars, but they hid too many thoughts.

Although Gu Yuchu and Gu Yuxin are half-sisters, they look very similar, but one is bright and charming, and her every move is charming, while the other is elegant and elegant, making people feel like they are taking a breath of spring breeze.

Qi Jian suddenly felt that he was not alone, at least they were always there.

"Your Majesty, where is Yu Xin? How has she been doing these past few years?"

Gu Yuchu was worried about his sister and couldn't help but ask.

Over the years, although she had complained about this cruel man when she was hurt and exhausted, and she had also complained about her sister who could not help but love her, but no matter what, they were her last known relatives in this world.

"She is very good. She stayed by your side every day when you were in a coma, but you need to rest for your injury, and she is always crying, so I don't allow her to disturb you. I will let her come over when your injury is completely healed. Meet you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."

Gu Yuchu was filled with gratitude. She raised her head slightly, glanced at the good-looking man in front of her, and lowered her head shyly, secretly happy.

Not to mention whether she was a real or fake princess, Qi Jian's handsome appearance pleased her very much.

"You have a good rest. I still have things to deal with. I will see you another day." Qi Jian stood up, touched Gu Yuchu's hair, and gently held her in his arms.

Gu Yuchu stood there in a daze, his heart still fluctuating for a long time until Qi Zhen left.

This is the first time since I grew up that I have had such close contact with him. This feeling... is so happy!
She laughed like a fool alone in the room.
