Achieve Rivers and Mountains - C227

Gao Guyu was lying on his bed, which was carved with purple sandalwood. This was something bestowed by the Emperor. Apart from himself, everything in this room was bestowed by the Emperor. So what if it was a JinWa Jade Bed? The final destination would still be the thin coffin underneath the ground. Who exactly was the assassin? Whether he came or not was not something he cared too much about. What he was worried about was what was hidden behind all these movements. What kind of plan was this? Was that little hoodlum Qin worth trusting? Now that things had come to this, what could they do? Gao Guyu laughed out loud, and just as he was about to recite a poem, he smelled a burst of fragrance. It was refreshing, and all the grudges in the world were put down; there was nothing left to resent. Just as his eyes were about to close, a blurry figure slowly approached the bed. It was so familiar yet completely unfamiliar. When he saw that the man’s outstretched hand was about to touch his still beating heart, he suddenly realized and understood everything.

“So it was … so it was …” He no longer had the strength to speak, and his mind no longer rotated. He didn’t even feel the slightest pain from being stabbed into his body.

At this moment, he was lying on top of the bed, kowtowing and drinking wine. There was a circle of guards standing around him, and none of them could be bothered to look at her appearance. She could only look at her subordinates who were standing in front of her. She nodded and signaled for her subordinates to find a place to sit. The constables quickly looked around, but had no choice but to wade through the beans and sit on the floor. Mingxiao looked at the group of people, big and small, that were not in tune yet, and wailed in grief. What kind of soldiers would a commander bring? Qin Xiao finished the last drop of wine and threw it to the mansion steward, wiping his mouth and said: “No, go get another jug.” “Hey, by the way, get some tea for our bros, it must be tiring to come all the way here.”

Housekeeper Gao unwillingly made a sound of acknowledgment. Ming Xiao Yuan looked at the door and asked, “What do you mean by that?”

“Block the door, there are also people outside the window. I’ll give them to him so that they won’t be able to escape. Let’s see which assassin can transform into a bug and enter.”

“Even if I become a flying insect, it won’t escape your notice!” Constable Liu came up to flatter him in time. Qin Xiao was very much used, so he nodded his head in satisfaction. The other constables hated themselves for coming up late.

Ming Xiao Yuan really couldn’t stand her face. He got up and was about to walk away when he was stopped by the little hoodlum. “Teacher, your student has been waiting here for a long time. Isn’t it about time for you to change shifts?” You can keep watch for a while. “Don’t worry, you’ll get your fill of good wine and good dishes. I’m sure you won’t be bored.”

“Ignorant of duty.” Mingxiao rolled his eyes at her and said, “Why is there no sound from inside?”

“I was bored staying here, so I didn’t bring my pretty sisters in. I just fell asleep.” As he spoke, he winked at the four maidservants.

“Censor, the old man is sleeping — snoring.” The butler came out in time to clarify that no one was willing to share the bed with him for this snoring problem. It was said that he wasn’t just snoring, he was also glaring with his eyes wide open. Once, a servant girl was woken up by him, and when she first opened her eyes and saw him, she immediately became scared and had a soul-leaving disease. It took her a year to cure it.

“What are you still standing there for? Why don’t you go in and take a look? ”

Looking at Ming Xiao Yuan’s furious expression, Qin Xiao couldn’t help but mutter under his breath. He couldn’t even hear the noise coming from the door? With that thought in mind, he kicked open the door and rushed in with Ming Xiao Yuan by his side. Following Ming Xiao Yuan’s call, the constables, the guards, the butler, and the maids outside rushed in.

Gao Gu Yu lay motionless on the bed, blood still dripping from the hole in his chest.

“Hubby!” One of the maidservants had broken down in emotion. As she cried, she was about to be stopped and pushed to the other maidservants by Qin Xiaolian. “Before you can examine the corpses, don’t destroy them.” He turned to Deng Jiebo and said, “Master Deng, the inquest, don’t let anyone touch the corpse.”

“Didn’t you say that as long as you’re here, everything would be fine?” The servant girl looked at Qin Xiao with misty eyes. If Ganggu Yu died, what about them? Was he going to return to that cold and terrifying palace?

Qin Xiaoliu ignored her complaints. She quickly walked to the window and knocked on it. The people waiting outside all looked terrified, claiming that no one was going to escape.

“Sir Qin, didn’t you say that we can’t get through?” Ming Xiao Yuan quickly scanned the surrounding walls, but did not find any hole to ask.

Ming Xiao knew what she was thinking and ran out with her. The butler wanted to order someone to carry the ladder, but Qin Xiao quickly ran and pressed his toes on the wall. He agilely flew up, grabbed the eaves with one hand, and flew up to the roof tiles. Just as the butler wanted to ask Ming Xiao Yuan if he needed it, Ming Xiao Yuan had already arrived beside Qin Xiao. Do you see anything? ” Qin Xiao couldn’t tell if his words were full of contempt, schadenfreude, or pure indifference.

“No, there are no traces at all. No one would have entered from the roof.”

“Shouldn’t you have known this long ago? “Sir Qin.” Once Ming Xiao Yuan finished, he jumped down and looked at the still stunned butler and said in a deep voice, “Get ready for the aftermath.”

Qin Xiao stood up straight. Listening to the clamoring and wailing coming from below, she raised her head to look at the blue sky. “The clouds swirl around her. The Great Thousand World is right in front of her, and all she can do is fall into a quagmire.” I will make it all come to an end as soon as possible. I will, I will. ”

she whispered.

“Butler!” Bring me some wine, bring me some wine! ” Qin Xiao shouted loudly as he sat down on the roof.

The four servant girls, Ling Kong, Heng Luo, and Heng Fei, sat with Bai in the mourning hall. It was time for them to be buried tomorrow. This name was given to them by Gao Guyu after they had entered the mansion. The four of them were more sorrowful than Qin Xiaoliu had imagined, and he could only hear the whispers of the other servants.

Cross Ripple’s eyes were red as he whispered something into Ling Kong’s ear. Ling Kong’s expression turned cold, but he did not reply. The other two only raised their heads to look at Ling Kong. She was the oldest here, and was Heng Bo’s cousin. The three of them usually treated her as their leader.

Although their voices were soft and Qin Xiaoliu had good hearing, she could faintly hear the words “What should we do in the future” and “Escape”. In her heart, she had a rough understanding of the situation of these four people.

He stood up and walked towards Qin Xiaoliu, who knew the purpose of her visit. Since she no longer took liberties with him as per usual, he seriously asked: “Did Sister Ling Kong look for me for my future destination?”

Seeing that her thoughts were already known, Ling Kong neither explained nor admitted it as he replied faintly, “The world has always believed that the Old Master has enjoyed great fortune for ten thousand of years. His Majesty has bestowed upon the palace maids immense amounts of luck with women. In fact, he and the four of us — his servant, his master, his teacher, and his friend — never had any feelings for each other. We sisters have always regarded the old man as our savior and benefactor. If His Majesty hadn’t given us away as gifts, he would have spent the rest of his life in vain, having nothing to say. But now that we are living a human life, we will never be able to return to that cage again. ”

“Aren’t you afraid of being punished, Miss Ling Kong?” Qin Xiao interrupted her.

“What’s the difference?” What’s the difference? Let alone being a maid that everyone could drive, even I, the consort, disdained to be one. The four of us don’t want wealth, we just love freedom. “On the surface, the censor is unscrupulous and frivolous, but since the old man has trusted him, he must be an extraordinary figure. I wonder if —”

“Beauty trap?” Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows.

“If the censor likes it, of course he can. I also know that there are no benefits in this world for nothing.” Ling Kong said coldly, but the compromise in his mouth did not seem to be disdainful at all. He had an awe-inspiring and inviolable look on his face.

Qin Xiaoliu stepped forward, and just as her face was about to touch his, he suddenly burst out laughing, “We do not seek wealth or honor, we only love freedom. Good! There are probably not many people as clear-headed as you in the world. Saying that, he pouted at the other three, “Stay here honestly, watch over them and don’t think about all this nonsense. Could it be that in this world, there is no way you can escape?”

Ling Kong lowered his head, not saying a word, his face flushed red.
