Businesswoman Chenghuang

Chapter 130 Death News
Finally, after repeated inspections by Xin Xiu, Gu Wanyue had a delicious lunch after she was sure it was safe.

Originally, my stomach was growling with hunger, but when I moved the chopsticks, I felt that I didn't have much appetite. After this trouble, I was a little dying of energy, and I couldn't eat after just flipping it a few times.

Gu Wanyue put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hand, waved to the maid on duty, "Take it away."

The maid on duty looked at Xinxiu innocently, why didn't the master eat it after a few mouthfuls?

Xinxiu looked at the food, and then at the lack of interest on Gu Wanyue's face, that's right, it's all the master's favorite, didn't she just urge herself to hurry up?
"Master, don't you agree? Why don't you make the small kitchen redo something you like?"

"No, I was so hungry just now, but I can't eat it this time. Take it away and share it. They are all precious ingredients. It's a pity when they arrive."

Xin Xiu frowned, and waved to the maid on duty, signaling for her to withdraw and do as the master wanted.

"If the master wants to eat later, tell the servant, and the servant will cook something delicious for the master." Xinxiu was worried, and specifically asked Gu Wanyue.

"Yeah." Gu Wanyue nodded, stood up, her waist was a little sore after doing it for a long time, "Xinxiu accompanied me to walk around, move my body, if I sit or lie down every day, my whole body will get moldy."

"Look at what the master said, you still smell good even if you lie down every day, how can we make you moldy with us waiting by your side?" Qingluan said with a smile from the side.

"You're a no-brainer. Master means that lying down every day without exercise is not good for your health. Could it really be moldy?" Qing Yuan sounded disgusted, and gave Qing Luan a funny look.

"Didn't I just talk about it casually? How can you think so much?" Qingluan retorted.

"Okay, you two don't quarrel. Xinxiu and I go out for a walk, and we are not far away in the yard, so you don't have to follow." Gu Wanyue watched the two bickering and said.

"Yes." Qingluan nodded.

"Master, the snow has melted a lot these days, so be careful on the road." Qing Yuan was a little worried, and said to Xinxiu, "Sister Xinxiu, carefully support the master, don't fall, there are two masters now , I still have a little prince in my stomach, but I can't afford to be careless."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention." Xinxiu held Gu Wanyue's arm firmly, and said to Qingyuan with a smile.

Perhaps it was because of Gu Wanyue's long-term confinement, His Highness has never let this side go, so the cleaning staff in Cangluo Palace are no longer diligent. Anyway, they are mixed day after day, and the snow on the road is cleaned. It was not clean enough, water was everywhere after the snow melted, and the eaves were also dripping down, so the whole small garden was full of water.

Xinxiu carefully supported Gu Wanyue to avoid the melted snow and some frozen ice, so she didn't walk very fast, and kept walking on a path covered by sycamore trees in the courtyard.

Therefore, the maids who had just been rewarded with lunch did not see her on the other road, only a wall and a row of sycamore trees were separated in the middle.

"Hey, do you think we can eat these things? The sisters in the backyard are hiding here now." said a wooden palace lady.

"Who said you want to eat it? If we let it go before, it would be a great honor, but now, let's avoid it. If we don't pay attention, we might lose our life." The other cheek was thin and mean. said the palace lady.

"Chengwei Li's death was really wronged. I heard from the sisters outside that it was because he met the person inside that day, was touched by His Highness, and was implicated, so His Highness strangled him to death on the spot." The age of the lady who spoke It's not big, with a scared look on his face.

"Isn't it? Now the sisters outside are spreading the word that our Highness wants to let the one inside to fend for himself and not allow outsiders to come in. Isn't that just a cold palace? It's just a pity for our Cangluo Palace. Originally, all the sisters wanted to enter the yard because they were all overwhelmed. I don’t know if we will be implicated, but now I hope that the one inside will die soon, so we can get rid of it as soon as possible.” The maid who spoke first mourned herself Said self-pityingly.

"Okay, let's not say a few words, let's understand it in our hearts, let's deal with these things first." The maid with thin cheeks raised the plate in her hand, with a look of disgust.

The three of them muttered a few more words before walking away.

On the other side, Gu Wanyue's face was calm and unwavering, but Xinxiu knew that Gu Wanyue's heart must be uncomfortable, because the arm held by her was a bit sharp!
It was Gu Wanyue's nails piercing through the clothes and into the flesh because of too much force!
"Master, don't take it seriously, they just talk casually, it's not like this." Xinxiu looked at Gu Wanyue worriedly, even though she knew her words were weak, she still tried her best to persuade her.

"Xinxiu, tell me, is Mrs. Li really dead?" Gu Wanyue's voice was flat, as if she was asking about an unimportant matter.

"This..." Xin Xiu pursed her lips, her mouth was a little dry, they wanted to hide it from the master, but she still heard it.

"Say." Gu Wanyue turned her head to look at Xin Xiu, her eyes were fiercer than Xin Xiu had ever seen before, a little sinister and vicious.

Xinxiu was with Gu Wanyue since she was a child, and this was the first time she felt a cold breath in her eyes. She not only shrank her neck, but said with some fear: "Since Li left us, he died not long after. He died in a side room in the garden of the mansion, and some people said that His Highness appeared before, as if he was strangled to death by His Highness himself."

After Xinxiu finished speaking, she raised her head timidly to look at Gu Wanyue, her voice was a little trembling, with a crying voice, "Master, this is just what they said, and there is no evidence to prove that His Highness killed you. Don't think about it, maybe it's a joke. wrong."

Gu Wanyue's eyes were empty, and her mind was blank. Li Shi is actually dead?Died silently?So what is the promise I made to her?
Ye Yan, why did you kill her?She doesn't believe him because she wants to let her fend for herself. He is not the kind of brutal person. He has principles, everything has its own measure, and he doesn't kill people without reason. So why?Did you know about Li's deceit, did you kill for your own reputation?Or is there another reason I don't know about?
Gu Wanyue's mind was buzzing, she couldn't tell the difference, even Ye Yan's face became a little strange, when will this game end, a living person dies as soon as he says he is dead, like a wave, Disappeared without a trace, is this the beginning, and then, people will disappear, one after another, until there are no more eyes-obscuring women in the entire Prince's Mansion!
