Gu Liangyue chose the song with Gu Qingyuan in mind, so she didn't choose a difficult one. She chose a relatively medium one. As the last majestic piano sound fell, at the end of the song, it seemed that she turned around and shot at the swallows. At the end, she looked back and smiled, all kinds of charm. Around the eyebrows, the dance ends.

Gu Qingyuan staggered a little when he stood up, but luckily he didn't lose his composure.

"It's ugly."

He brushed the hair beside his ears with his hand, and the place was quiet for a while. It was obvious that everyone had not recovered yet, and then applause broke out, and the sounds of surprise and praise could not be heard.

"Good! General Gu has really raised two good daughters. They are amazingly talented and beautiful, and they will be rewarded!" Emperor Yuan Jing was amazed and applauded repeatedly.

"My lord, thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Qingyuan panted slightly to express her gratitude.

After the palace banquet ended, the names of the Gu family's twin sisters spread throughout the capital, and Miss Gu even moved the capital.

Gu Liangyue looked at the numbers on the display screen showing that Gu Qingyuan's luck had rebounded, feeling unspeakable.

{Host, if you can't bear it, your big plans will be messed up. }007 sounds a reminder.

Gu Liangyue took a deep breath to comfort herself, this was all for Pan Mengzhu.

However, everyone has not forgotten the purpose of the southern Xinjiang envoy coming this time.

Two imperial edicts from Emperor Jing of the Yuan Dynasty were sent to the palace where Jin Guiren was staying: "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: The fifth princess will be granted the title of Jinghe because she is diligent and obedient and has a prudent nature."

Feng Hanqiu and Jin Guiren looked at each other, unable to hide their happiness.

Immediately afterwards, Shunde took out the second imperial edict and read out: "My dynasty governs the world with benevolence. My Princess Jingle has both talents and virtues, a soft and bright appearance, and a gentle temperament. I specially give Princess Jinghe a marriage to the southern border."

Hearing this, Feng Hanqiu suddenly raised his head and looked at Shunde in disbelief. He stood up and grabbed the imperial edict, reading it word by word.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could my father ask me to get married!"

"No, I'm going to ask for clarification!"

Feng Hanqiu wanted to rush out to find Emperor Yuan Jing, but was stopped by Shunde: "Princess Jinghe, this is the imperial edict written by the emperor himself, and the servants are watching. If you really want to find the emperor, you might as well wait. The Emperor is busy at the moment."

No matter what Shunde said, Feng Hanqiu couldn't listen to it at this time.

"Hanqiu, come back." Jin Guiren's gentle voice sounded, but Feng Hanqiu shivered all over.

"Mother..."

Jin Guiren looked at her coldly, and his tone was gentle but with a hint of coolness: "Have you forgotten what my concubine told you before?"

Feng Hanqiu calmed down and stood beside Jin Guiren with red eyes.

Jin Guiren put a smile on his face again: "Mr. Shunde, please tell me why you suddenly asked Hanqiu to go and get married."

Shunde shook off the dust and put it on his arm: "Jin Guiren's holy will is unpredictable. How can we slaves know it?"

Jin Gui felt relieved, took off a jade bracelet from her wrist and stuffed it into Shunde's hand: "Father, please be accommodating."

Shunde flipped the jade bracelet and put it away before saying, "Well, to tell you the truth, the Emperor had already discussed and finalized the marriage with the Queen before the envoy arrived. It was not decided suddenly."

"Southern Xinjiang is a long way and a barren land. Princess Jinghe has been growing up in the palace since she was a child. Lord Jin, it is better to prepare for the princess first."

After Shunde finished speaking, he put down the imperial edict and left.

Feng Hanqiu cried and followed Jin Guiren into the inner room: "Mother and concubine, what should I do now? I don't want to go and get married..."

"Concubine, please help me think of a way..."

Jin Guiren wiped away Feng Hanqiu's tears and sighed: "Now that the imperial edict has been issued, what's the point of asking your father for help, not to mention that the mother and concubine are not favored in the first place."

Feng Hanqiu lay on the table and cried loudly.

There was a sinister look in Jin Guiren's eyes. The queen was really kind. In order to prevent her daughter from scheming against her, if Shunde hadn't told her that the queen already knew, she would still be kept in the dark.

"Okay, don't cry, my mother-in-law will just find a solution for you."

Feng Hanqiu looked up with tears in her eyes, stopped crying and nodded. Now she can only place her hope on Jin Guiren.

Jin Guiren never wanted to give up on Feng Hanqiu. She had no heirs and only had a daughter, Feng Hanqiu, who was her last and only one.

If Feng Hanqiu was really sent for marriage, the fate would be the same as that of the dead eldest princess. She would never have a place in the palace.

Jin Guiren looked at Feng Hanqiu and motioned for her to sit over, and then whispered in her ear. Mother and daughter looked at each other and decided to give it a go.

General's House.

"Miss, you are finally back." Yuetao took over Gu Qingyuan's cloak, with a look of joy on her face that could not be concealed.

"What are you so happy about?" Gu Qingyuan asked casually.

Speaking of this month, Yuetao's smile became more and more unrestrained: "I heard that Aunt Jiang had a conflict with another lady and was taken away by people from the Yamen."

"The old lady is also angry right now. The second lady is making a lot of noise over there and is trying to figure out how to get Aunt Jiang out."

"I heard that the old lady doesn't want to come forward because she feels embarrassed."

The corners of Gu Qingyuan's lips curled up. Look, what she said last time was going to bring misfortune to Mrs. Jiang.

"But it's strange, Miss. Why didn't Aunt Jiang have such courage before? Now she dares to conflict with those ladies."

"Well, maybe you are getting braver."

Yuetao scratched her head, not understanding.

Recalling what Yu Niang had said to Wu Xi a few days ago, and what Wu Xi had told her, it seemed that something really happened between Gu Liangyue and Fu Huaian, and the Jiang family knew about it.

In this way, Mrs. Jiang felt that it was certain that Gu Liangyue would become the Crown Princess in the future, but she was just a Crown Princess and she really treated her like a dish.

Gu Qingyuan followed Yuetao into the inner room to bathe and change clothes.

Yuetao wiped her body, and when his eyes touched her arm, she exclaimed: "Miss! Why are you injured?"

Gu Qingyuan, who had closed her eyes to rest, opened her eyes and followed Yuetao's line of sight, only to see a medium-sized circle-shaped scar on her arm.

"Ahem, um, maybe I bumped into it accidentally." Yuetao felt something strange, so she got closer and took a closer look: "Hey! Miss, were you bitten by something?!"

"My slave, it looks like tooth marks. If you think about it carefully, if you are really bitten by something, we have to look at the doctor quickly. If it is poisonous, it will be bad."

It doesn't matter if Gu Qingyuan is laughing or not laughing when he hears this. If Pei Qingci hears Yuetao saying that he is poisonous...

Gu Qingyuan put her arm in the water: "Okay, okay, Yuetao, please go out first. I'll call you when I'm done washing."

"Oh, miss, your injury is really unnecessary..."

"Oh, no, no, no, let's get out."

As soon as Yuetao left, she relaxed, took out her arm from the water, looked at the teeth marks on it and sighed, Pei Qingci was really cruel.

It's been a few days and it's still not fully healed. This injury was bitten by Pei Qingci that night at Jiuwan Temple.

On the way down the mountain that day, she unexpectedly ran into Pei Qingci and his party, and he was in a state of illness at that time. The people sent by Jiang's mother and daughter were dealt with by Ling Su.

Seeing that he had helped her, Gu Qingyuan took the initiative to let him suck blood. It was only then that she realized that only her blood had an effect on Pei Qingci.

So the two of them made a deal. Pei Qingci gave her Longlian, and she could let him suck blood when Pei Qingci became ill, and she would be on call until the golden silkworm Gu on Xie's body was lifted.

As if he was afraid that she would regret it, Ling Su even wrote a special agreement.

Long Lian is now estimated to have been delivered to Dr. Ren.

……

The afternoon sun was just right, and the sunshine took away a lot of the coolness. There was a chaise longue in the yard, and the beautiful girl was lying on it, reading a storybook, and teasing the little maid next to her.

It's so uncomfortable.

This book was just bought by Yuetao from the store. I don’t know who wrote it. I haven’t written a new one for a while, and I didn’t have a new one until today.

The story about the little fox demon and the scholar who became a spirit made Gu Qingyuan unable to hold back his lips.

"Miss, miss, do you think there is someone there?" Yuetao's expression suddenly became serious and she called Gu Qingyuan in a low voice.

Gu Qingyuan calmly moved the notebook away, and through the cover of the book, he could see the clothes of a person hiding behind the wall not far away.

She carefully took out a dagger from the side and threw it at the man with lightning speed.

The man who was hiding did not realize that he had been discovered. The dagger pierced his calf, causing him to scream in pain that he could not control.

"Catch it."

Several servants went up to catch the man, but the man was still struggling on the way, trying to find an opportunity to escape.

The man was thrown in front of Gu Qingyuan's eyes. Ningdong stepped forward and pulled out the dagger. The man howled again in pain.

Ningdong handed the cleaned dagger to Gu Qingyuan.

"Raise your head." Gu Qingyuan played with the dagger and looked at the man in front of him trembling like chaff.

Seeing that he turned a deaf ear and still lowered his head, Gu Qingyuan winked at the servant.

The servant was not so gentle. He grabbed the man's hair very roughly and ordered him to look at Gu Qingyuan.

"What's your name?"

"Ah, Ah Cai." The man seemed obedient.

"If this lady guessed correctly, you must be Gu Liangyue's person."

She said this abruptly, and cold sweat broke out on Ah Cai's back, but he still shook his head vehemently.

"Okay, okay." Gu Qingyuan nodded three times in a row: "Then let me change the question, what are you doing sneakily in my yard?"

Ah Cai hesitated and couldn't explain why.

When Gu Qingyuan heard this, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, like a poppy blooming: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it now, I have many ways to make you speak."

"I have a new guard here. Do you know what he likes most?"

Ah Cai shook his head in confusion. He didn't know why Gu Qingyuan said this.

"What he likes most is skinning, especially skinning living people bit by bit." Gu Qingyuan said mindlessly, as if he couldn't see the fear on Ah Cai's face.

"It just so happens that I've seen it twice, tsk tsk, that's cruel."

Gu Qingyuan walked around Ah Cai and said, "When peeling the skin, cut through the spine first."

"Cut the skin on the back in half with one knife, and then use the knife to slowly separate the skin and muscles, tearing them apart like a butterfly spreading its wings."

"By the way, do you know what is the most terrifying part of this kind of punishment?"

Ah Cai's body was trembling non-stop, and cold sweat dripped down his cheeks and fell to the ground. Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, his face and lips were surprisingly pale.

"No, no, I don't know."

Gu Qingyuan's voice was drawn out, not slow or urgent: "Often the person is still alive after the execution, and he has to watch his skin being peeled off bit by bit."

"How about that? Isn't it interesting?"

Ah Cai completely collapsed on the ground and fainted from fright.

"Tsk, it's so useless to wake him up." Gu Qingyuan glanced at him with disdain.

Ah Cai woke up not long after he fainted. When he opened his eyes, he saw the girl in front of him trying to put a grape into his mouth.

The movements are elegant and pleasing to the eye.

"You're awake. Now that you're awake, do you want to try the guard's skinning technique, or do you want to decide on your own?"

Ah Cai was undecided and folded his hands together to rub them. (End of chapter)
