Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After getting along for a short time, Shangguan Ru was convinced that the group of Jinpeng killers were definitely not invited to the Central Plains by Princess Huaping.  The princess did hate the Gu family. Because of Gu Lun's constant pressure, the palace maid who taught her martial arts was forced to commit suicide. However, the princess's anger had little to do with this. She had no special feelings for the palace maid, and even felt that she was in the way.  What can't be let go is Gu Lun's "slander".  Gu Lun was deeply trusted by the emperor during his lifetime. It was at his suggestion that Princess Huaping had to leave the palace and her favorite brother and hastily marry Pang Jing, a man she could never fall in love with. Just because of this  She wanted to cut Gu Lun's body into thousands of pieces.  When the emperor died, the princess was busy fighting for power and let the Gu family go for the time being. As soon as the situation stabilized, she began to prepare for revenge.  After consulting many opinions, the princess heard the rumors about Jinpeng Castle and her interest in the killer immediately increased, so she sent her confidant Luo Pingji with a large amount of gold and silver to Biyu City to buy the murderer. Her only regret was that she could not see the killer, let alone see it with her own eyes.  Gu Lun's entire family was killed.  When the news came that the Gu family was wiped out, the princess felt a little satisfied, and then put the matter behind her. It wasn't until the Dragon King's life story gradually became clear that he realized that he had been deceived by the old bearded Luo Pingji, and that there was still one queen left in the Gu family.  people.  The princess tried to pick up the deep hatred of the past again, but found that she had long since lost this passion. Hatred was exhausting and torturous, and she no longer wanted to bear it, so she put it down after belittling Luo Pingji.  .  She never thought that Gu Shenwei would dare to come to the capital to seek revenge one day, so.  She never prepared for a fight.  Although there is not much clear evidence, Shangguan Ru still believes in the princess.  She soon discovered that although the princess wanted to defeat the empress dowager in the palace struggle, she did not have much ambition in her heart. She just hoped to retain her current power and life.  The princess is surrounded by a group of sycophants who like her. They wear various beards and assume majestic and loyal postures. They are all using the princess for their own benefit.  Very few people actually gave her advice.  Shangguan Ru is no stranger to this. If the descendants of the Gu family hadn't accidentally sneaked into Jinpeng Castle, she would have successfully grown into the tenth son. She would have an important place in the stone castle and Biyu City, and she would be surrounded by many people who please her.  people.  With the increase of experience, Shangguan Ru finally reluctantly admitted the fact in his heart: his best friend in childhood, Shangguan Yushi, had actually been pretending.  Mr. Yu's arrogance, aggressive character, and habit of wearing men's clothing are mostly to cater to the most favored Tenth Young Master.  ¡°It is impossible for a person like Princess Hua Ping to formulate a watertight plan, let alone plan ahead and start buying killers years in advance.  The princess once had a strong hatred.  But it was difficult for her to understand other people's hatred. When Gu Shenwei came, she was surprised and angry, but not afraid at all.  She believed that the descendants of the Gu family had neither soldiers nor power.  He didn't dare to do anything to her at all.  She invited Shangguan Ru and Red Bat, basically on a whim, to demonstrate to Gu Shen that she was not someone to be trifled with. However, after meeting, the princess developed a great liking for these two women from the Western Regions.  , Their experiences in the Western Regions were so fascinating that the princess was willing to listen to them without sleep or food.  "If I were born in the Western Region, I would definitely be king." The princess held up the wine glass in her right hand. Before she drank much, her whole body was already feverish, as if she had returned to her girlhood many years ago. "Your Shangguan instructor is too honest, why not  Monopolize the country of Xiangji and lead the female soldiers to sweep through the Western Regions? " Red Bat pursed his lips and smiled, "The instructor is not 'honest', otherwise how could she defeat so many enemies and keep Biyu City? She is just not interested in being a queen. "  Shaking her head, she expressed disbelief. Taking advantage of Shangguan Ru's absence, she asked the doubts she had been holding in her heart, "Your name is a bit strange. Who gave it to you? How did it come about?" "It was the name given to me by the instructor.  , she said this was a story she heard when she was a child. It said that there was a heroine who could fly over the walls and walk on the walls. She wore a red cloak and stayed day and night like a bat. She was silent, so she was called the red bat. She specialized in robbing the rich and giving to the poor. Even the palace  The instructor said it was her favorite story, so she gave me this name. "The princess was stunned for a while, "Who told her this story?" "The instructor didn't say it, but I guess it was.  Mr. Gu, the look on the instructor's face when telling the story it must be him, he is from the Central Plains, so he would come up with the story about the palace." The princess was stunned again, and suddenly she became very interested in the descendants of the Gu family.  "Tell me the story about your teacher and the Dragon King." "I don't know much." Red Bat said, but she still told it. Most of them were rumors that were difficult to distinguish between true and false. The two of them drank a lot every time they talked about it.  A glass of wine, one can speak frankly.?, one listened carefully, and the princess asked questions from time to time. The red bat couldn't answer, so he made up his own stories to make the princess happier.  Therefore, when a maid came to spoil the fun, the princess had already had many fantasies and puzzles about the relationship between Gu Shenwei and Shangguan Ru, "Why aren't they together? Is it because they are the daughters of the enemy? But  To be honest, the Dragon King¡¯s real enemy is in the Central Plains, and it¡¯s not Jinpeng Castle.¡± Red Bat could no longer make up a story and was hemming and hawing when the maid arrived in a hurry. After she confessed, she said, ¡°Shangguan¡¯s guest is a little uncomfortable.  , I want Miss Red Bat to go back and accompany her." Red Bat immediately stood up, "I just said that she didn't look right today" The princess also stood up, "I'll go with you and send someone to ask for the royal doctor immediately.  "Come on." "No need for now, let's take a look first. The instructor is very skilled, and minor illnesses usually won't have much impact." Red Bat vaguely guessed that the instructor had ulterior motives in asking her to go back. After thinking about it, he decided to take the princess with him.  .  Shangguan Ru was sitting at the table, resting his chin on his hands. His face was a little pale, and he did not look well. When he saw the princess, she immediately stood up and apologized. Red Bat walked over, helped Shangguan Ru, and touched her forehead gently.  , immediately understood what was going on.  "It's still the same old problem. Let me make you some medicine that I used to take." Red Bat said.  "It couldn't be better." Shangguan Ru looked weak.  The princess ordered the maid to go with the red bat and use the spare medicinal materials in the house.  "Are you suffering from a disease caused by martial arts training?" When there were only two people left.  The princess asked, she had a good impression of Shangguan Ru.  So he seemed very concerned.  Shangguan Ru apologized again, "Your Highness, I forgive you. In fact, I am not sick. I just wanted to take the opportunity to meet with Your Highness alone." The princess suddenly remembered the relationship between Shangguan Ru and Gu Shenwei. She was shocked and blurted out: "You want to kill me?"  Me, avenging the Gu family?" Shangguan Ru smiled, "How can I avenge him if I don't even want to take revenge on myself?" The princess felt a little relieved and then became interested in this unexpected meeting, "Wait.  Wait." She walked to the door and ordered the maids outside to bring the fruit wine, and then went to the kitchen to order some side dishes. "It's enough for them to help for a while." Shangguan Ru didn't expect the princess to trust her so much.  Your Highness is trustworthy. I won't beat around the bush, Mr. Gu has just arrived." The princess was startled again and looked around, thinking that Gu Shenwei was hiding in a corner.  "He was persuaded to leave by me. It would be better for me to say some things." The princess smiled awkwardly, sat down again and whispered: "The Luo family lives up to its name. They also said that there are masters secretly guarding them.  , the whole Prince Consort's house is leak-free, but people come and go at will, and they don't even respond. Huh. What do you want what is he going to tell me? " "He said that King Xiao invited the Jinpeng killer back.  The emperor was unfortunately killed in the assassination. " "But Prince Xiao is also there" The princess is not stupid.  As soon as he said these few words, he understood something in his heart, "Oh, this is so insidious, but why does Prince Xiao want to harm Your Majesty? He has Your Majesty's trust the most." "Mr. Gu hasn't investigated clearly yet, but he found that various factions in the world have  The gathering in the capital is also related to Prince Xiao. There is a man named Cheng Yi who has already been loyal to him and has won over a large number of people in the world. He is probably going to take some kind of action. " "Cheng Yi? This name seems to me.  I've heard of him." "He is called Mr. Cheng Jiu both inside and outside the capital." "Cheng Jiu, I remembered. Isn't that the Luo family's in-laws?" Shangguan Ru shook his head, "Observe from Mr. Gu.  Judging from the situation, it was Cheng Yi who betrayed Luo Family Village. He tried every means to squeeze the Luo family out of Cheng Family Village. "The princess thought for a moment, "There is a possibility. Big Beard - the person who is often around me, named Luo Qihong - he once.  I told you that Cheng Yi married his daughter to the Luo family, thinking that he could take advantage of it, but the Luo family had always been wary of him, so he was a little unhappy and complained, but he never showed it in front of outsiders. Well, King Xiao killed him.  Jun intends to rebel. He wants to be the emperor himself. Of course he will not be satisfied with it. What can a group of killers from the Western Regions and a group of Jianghu people do to assassinate me and the empress dowager? But after this, he still can't do it?  It's strange to see the support of the ministers" The princess turned to herself and suddenly raised her head, "What else did Mr. Gu say?" "He said that no matter what King Xiao's purpose is, he will take action soon.  "The drunkenness and fantasy all disappeared, and the princess asked: "Why did he tell me this? Wasn't Prince Xiao his friend before?" "It's this friend who will be charged with assassination.When it comes to Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu is a person who must avenge his enemies.  " "Hey, how do you settle his grudge against me?  " "We will talk about it later, Mr. Gu knows the priorities.  " "I understand, thank you. As for Gu Shenwei, let's wait until later.  "The three maids who brought the fruit wine came back. The princess stood up and said goodbye, "I'm not interested anymore. The guests need to rest, so you are not allowed to disturb them.  "The maids were confused and no one dared to ask more questions. Shangguanru sat at the table and watched the oil lamp burning slowly, "I have to lie as soon as you come here. Will this help you?  " Gu Shenwei stepped out and said, "Well, what the princess said is right. Prince Xiao cannot get the support of the entire court just by relying on killers and figures in the world. He must have another conspiracy. I have to find out immediately.  " "What exactly are you seeking revenge for?  " Shangguan Ru asked, expressing the confusion in his heart. " I owe you a drink, I will remember it.  "After that, Gu Shenwei quietly left the room without answering her question. The capital was quiet, and few people knew that the chaos was coming, but Gu Shenwei felt that the brewing chaos was not big enough, and he had to continue to stir it up. This was his  The only chance.
