Zhao Yan looked at her with a slightly startled expression, and those beautiful eyes were full of confusion.

Gu Linqiao asked again, "What? You don't believe in my skills?"

Although there is no high technology like in the Mustard Seed Space, she will never forget the things she has learned in her mind, it is just a little more laborious.

Zhao Yan shook his head, "Even my grandfather recognized your medical skills, why should I not believe in you?"

Gu Linqiao asked, "Then what are you hesitating about?"

Zhao Yan stared at Gu Linqiao and said word by word, "I was wondering, why do you suddenly want to help me? I thought you would be happy if I died in the palace."

"Why should I be happy when someone dies for no reason? Besides, you are considered a partner now. Why don't you keep your smart mind and help me do something else? Why should I let you die in vain?"

The corner of Gu Linqiao's mouth curled up with a hint of ridicule, "Besides, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Zhao Liquan will be unhappy if you are alive, so why not?"

Zhao Yan laughed dumbly, "Your purpose is so straightforward!"

Gu Linqiao said, "We can't kill Zhao Liquan for the time being, but if we can make him unhappy, we will definitely not make it easy for him."

Zhao Yan fully agreed with this point, "Some of the things he said are indeed outrageous, but I really hope he dies!"

"He is our grandfather. Without him, there would be no us. But why can he be so cruel and insist on driving us all away and killing us?"

Gu Linqiao said, "Because he didn't regard you as his descendants at all. You were just his little pawns. Although the truth is very cold, you and Zhao Ying have to accept it."

"Brother doesn't want anyone's life, let alone fight for power. My brother doesn't like the sixth prince, and he won't be able to sacrifice his life for the queen. He just wants to live."

After Zhao Yan finished speaking, he laughed self-deprecatingly, "But I was just too stupid before, and I couldn't see the situation clearly."

Gu Linqiao asked, "What about now?"

Zhao Yan said, "I can't kill Zhao Liquan, so I can only surround Wei to rescue Zhao and destroy his plan."

"Is the plan done?"

When Gu Linqiao asked, Zhao Yan stared at her and said word by word, "If I die and deliver another message to the Seventh Prince, the seed will definitely break the ground."

Gu Linqiao asked straight to the point, "When will you die?"

Zhao Yan said, "Originally, it had to be delayed for a while, but since you are here tonight, the time has to be moved forward."

Gu Linqiao frowned, "Don't tell me, are you planning to die?"

Zhao Yan's eyes were covered with a faint mist of sadness, "With my current means, I can't hide it from Feng Mingye and Zhao Liquan. Apart from real death, what else can I do? I have worked so hard to bury the corpse in the shortest possible time. I don’t want to fall short of the next thunderbolt.”

"You didn't say that you entered the palace to save your life, how could you die?"

Seeing what Gu Linqiao said, Zhao Yan looked at her and said, "If you were here, I wouldn't have to die!"

Seeing her like this, Gu Linqiao asked again, "What can you help me with?"

Zhao Yan said, "At least Feng Mingye will not attack King Qi, let alone my brother."

Gu Linqiao did not hesitate and nodded directly, "Deal!"

The two sat quietly for a while, one reading a book and the other drinking tea. Zhao Yan looked at the time and saw that Gu Linqiao still had the intention of leaving, so he took the initiative to ask, "Are you... okay?"

Gu Linqiao shook his head, "It's okay, I'm waiting for them to change shifts. It won't be difficult to go out at that time."

Zhao Yan said "Oh" softly. She thought she had something important to say, but after fussing for a long time, she was actually waiting for the change.

Just as she lowered her eyes to read, Gu Linqiao's voice suddenly sounded, "Actually, I have always been curious about one thing."

"What?" Zhao Yan looked at her doubtfully.

Gu Linqiao asked directly, "Your father is also the commander-in-chief after all, and he has been guarding the border for so many years, and his blood must be incomparable. But so many things have happened to your Zhao family, why don't you see him come back?"

"You are all his children, and what happened to the wife and children one after another, didn't he get touched at all? There was nothing going on at the border at that time. If he really came back for this matter, the emperor wouldn't be able to punish him!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yan burst into laughter.

"I thought you really had something important to ask me, but I didn't expect you wanted to inquire about my family's gossip!"

Gu Linqiao didn't deny it. He admitted it openly and said, "Isn't this human nature?"

Zhao Yan nodded, "You're right, everyone will think so. My father is a decisive and majestic general. He has killed countless people with the knife in his hand. With him here, who dares to do nothing to the three of us brothers and sisters?" good?"

"But that's not the case!"

Zhao Yan said solemnly, "My father is indeed a general, but he is stupid and filial. He is more like a ruthless killer trained by Zhao Liquan, as if he was born to be a general. Apart from the battlefield, there is no other way. He doesn’t care about anything.”

"My brother can kill enemies with my father on the battlefield, and I have seen him many times. Zhao Kun and I rarely see my father. All we can feel is his great reputation."

"I used to think that he had a big responsibility and couldn't take care of us, but later I realized that it wasn't that he couldn't take care of us. He really didn't care. All he cared about was Zhao Liquan's order."

When Gu Linqiao heard what Zhao Yan said, she understood it completely. No wonder Zhao Liquan looked so dismissive when she talked about General Zhao. It turned out that Lord Zhao was the most obedient chess piece he had cultivated. No, he should Said it was a puppet.

Just like Feng Mingye training Feng Yunsu to be his chess piece, he would pamper him when he was useful, but once he sensed danger, he would immediately silence him.

But Zhao Liquan was obviously more successful than Feng Mingye. Even if he killed Zhao Kun, Master Zhao did not react at all.

"Actually, my brother is also a chess piece that he cultivated. It's just that my brother refuses to accept his fate. He has a tough character and is not something that Zhao Liquan can manipulate at will. As for Zhao Kun, because he can't support the wall with difficulty, he doesn't care about it and doesn't bother to train me. She's a girl, so he doesn't even bother to look at her."

"Zhao Kun is the shit he cultivated, so he can be considered a success."

Gu Linqiao suddenly spoke up, and Zhao Yan looked at her in surprise, "Your Zhao family is powerful. If everyone is outstanding, the emperor shouldn't distrust him, so there must be a second-generation ancestor who is rotten to the core as a cover."

Hearing this, Zhao Yan was slightly startled, then smiled sadly, "You're right, my thinking was too narrow-minded."

Gu Linqiao didn't say anything else, he stood up directly and looked at her condescendingly, "Zhao Yan, tell me when you are ready to escape. Even if you die, you have to die where you want to die, not this narrow place." In a cage.”

"Okay!" Zhao Yan agreed softly.

Gu Linqiao turned around and left quietly.

Zhao Yan looked at the window she had closed with a sad expression and a faint tone, "I really hope we can still have a chance to fight side by side!"
