Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain
Chapter 40 Can it still count?
It was slightly bright, but unlike the tranquility in the city, the dock was noisy with people coming and going, making it very lively.
An inconspicuous small fishing boat docked on the shore, and tall men stepped off one after another.
Others cast curious glances, but as soon as these people squeezed into the crowd, they disappeared without a trace like a drop of water flowing into the sea.
In the deserted alley, there are high walls everywhere, and only a few serious-looking people are waiting here.
The man took off his hood, and a handsome face was revealed at this moment. His majestic aura forced the guards around him to lower their heads unconsciously - it was Chu Yunyi.
"What's the situation in the city?" Chu Yunyi's deep eyes swept over several people, "Does the eldest princess have any other actions?"
"Your Highness, there has been no disturbance in the city since the Yuan family was imprisoned." One of them quickly replied, "But there seems to be something unusual about the Chen family."
Hearing this, Chu Yunyi's eyes darkened and his tone became sharp: "What do those idiots want to do?"
"this……"
"They want to escape."
A soft and melodious female voice sounded in the alley.
This sound alone can make some men freeze half of their bones.
But Chu Yunyi was obviously not one of them. His handsome face turned completely gloomy.
"Your Highness, the Chen family is not a good thing. You should be more careful." Xu Qingqing moved lightly and walked to Chu Yunyi's side with a soft waist.
When looking at Xu Qingqing, Chu Yunyi lowered his eyes and looked at her deeply.
"Why are you here, Qingqing?" Chu Yunyi said softly, "Jiang Ning is not peaceful these days. You shouldn't show your face."
Xu Qingqing raised her head and looked at Chu Yunyi.
Whenever this happens, she will see all kinds of tenderness in Chu Yunyi's eyes.
But at this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and her hands clenched tightly.
She looked at the handsome and stalwart man in front of her, and she held countless words in her heart, but she couldn't say them out.
She was about to ask him whether he came to Jiangning this time because of the Chen family or because of the assassinated head of Changning County!
However, her red lips quivered several times, but she was still unable to ask.
Chu Yunyi was keenly aware of her strangeness and immediately asked: "Qingqing, what's wrong with you? But what difficulty have you encountered?"
"No." Xu Qingqing's smile was still gentle, and her eyes looking at Chu Yunyi were also very sentimental, "I just want to remind His Highness that the situation in Jiangning has changed. Since the Yuan family and Jiang Zhizhou were arrested, the Ling family
The Chen family is trying to escape because of their unclear attitude. Otherwise, I would not have taken the risk of coming to Jiangning."
Chu Yunyi's brows relaxed slightly, but he knew Xu Qingqing very well and knew that Xu Qingqing came to Jiangning not for these things.
However, facing such a woman who worked hard and did countless dirty things for him, even though he was very dissatisfied with her unauthorized actions, Chu Yunyi could not reprimand her.
Chu Yunyi could only follow Xu Qingqing's words and nodded slightly: "On the surface, the Ling family has no contact with us, but they have taken a lot of advantage from the original family, and the Chen family even more..."
His eyes suddenly turned cold at this moment: "Those who betray me can only have one fate."
Xu Qingqing looked at him infatuatedly and murmured: "What your Highness said is absolutely true. We must eradicate them before they rebel against the Lord! We must not ruin your great cause because of these few ants!"
After saying that, she got closer to Chu Yunyi and said softly: "Your Highness, you might as well go to my concubine's other courtyard. If you act in secret, you will be able to catch them all!"
However, Chu Yunyi raised her hand and stopped her next move.
His tone was gentle, but he did not allow Xu Qingqing to refute, "Qingqing, I have more important things for you to do."
Before Xu Qingqing could speak, she looked into his deep and affectionate eyes: "I can only rest assured if I leave this matter to you."
Faced with such a look, Xu Qingqing simply couldn't refuse.
She clenched her hands and nodded heavily.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, as long as it is a task assigned by you, even if the road ahead is difficult, I will do my best to help you overcome all difficulties!"
"I always feel at ease when you do things." Chu Yunyi personally placed a note in her palm.
Holding the note left by Chu Yunyi in her hand, Xu Qingqing stood there with her eyes lowered, covering the sourness in her eyes: "Is Your Highness going to visit the Lord of Changning County?"
Chu Yunyi paused for a moment and spoke in a calm tone without any emotion: "Since I have come to Jiangning, I naturally want to visit my great-aunt. As for Ning'er..."
Xu Qingqing's heart skipped a beat. Her keen intuition of wandering among men for many years made her feel uneasy.
Ning'er...
She had never heard Chu Yunyi call Gu Ning so affectionately before!
Some complicated emotions spread from the bottom of Xu Qingqing's heart. She made some mistakes and pretended to be unstable, and fell into Chu Yunyi's arms.
Some powder stuck to Chu Yunyi's clothes.
Chu Yunyi had no doubts, he just frowned and helped her up: "Be careful."
Xu Qingqing quickly stood up and turned towards Chu Yunyi: "Your Highness, just go visit the eldest princess, I will definitely take care of the matter."
Watching Chu Yunyi leave, the reluctance and jealousy in Xu Qingqing's heart were all printed on her face.
She didn't look back until the figure disappeared.
She leaned against the wall, the cold wall just like her heart.
Feiyun complained in a low voice: "The girl has done so many things for His Highness, but Your Highness still wants to see that stupid county head! It's really unfair!"
"The gap between people is like a chasm." Xu Qingqing raised her head and looked at the gradually clearing sky above her head, "Some people are born with rich clothes and fine food, with a good son-in-law by their side, but some people... are like a gutter.
The mouse can only touch that ray of sunshine by working hard."
Chu Yunyi is the only light in her life!
Xu Qingqing's eyes became extremely sharp at this moment: "First do what His Highness ordered, and the rest... I will take care of it myself!"
"Girl!" Feiyun said in a very firm voice, "Whatever you want to do, I will support you!"
"You are His Highness's best friend! That Changning County Lord only has a title for nothing!"
Xu Qingqing clenched her hands tightly, and the fire of jealousy in her heart burst out like an erupting volcano.
But soon, she suppressed her murderous intentions: "That's it, you continue to send people to keep an eye on her."
"My slave has given the order a long time ago!" Feiyun was all proud, "Her whole yard is under my control!"
The sun gradually rose, Xu Qingqing reached out to touch the invisible sunlight, and her eyes gradually became firm.
At the same time, a pair of slender white hands held a handful of sunshine.
"The weather is quite good today."
Gu Ning raised his head and stared at the dazzling sunshine. He had never felt so eager to go out as he did today.
"County Master, you don't have to look any further." Chunyu interrupted her reverie coldly, "The eldest princess said that you did not hesitate to hurt yourself in order to thank the guards. In order to make your memory long, only you can completely heal the injury.
OK, then you can go out."
"Chunyu, you and I have been together for a few months..." Gu Ning squeezed out a few tears, "Are you really so cruel?"
Chunyu remained unmoved, watching her nose and heart: "I dare not disobey the eldest princess. Besides... His Highness Prince Duan has already gone to the other courtyard. I believe he will come to you after seeing the eldest princess.
"
"Huh." Gu Ning rolled her eyes and waved her hand impatiently, "If he comes, just say that I am recovering from my injuries and it is not convenient to see guests."
These days, she was working hard to increase her luck at Xie Yan's place, but she couldn't let the scumbag ruin her good deeds.
Gu Ning made a quick decision and closed the window.
Unexpectedly, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Chu Yunyi walked in under the leadership of the maid.
The two looked at each other, and Gu Ning made a move.
Chu Yunyi was already walking towards her in a hurry.
"Ning'er." Chu Yunyi called affectionately, "Why have you been so haggard these past few days?"
Gu Ning lowered her eyes and fell into Chu Yunyi's eyes, showing her shyness.
Chunyu coughed slightly and reminded: "Your Highness, the county master's injury has not healed, so I'm afraid he won't be able to stay in the wind for a long time."
"It's because I didn't think well." Chu Yunyi said angrily.
However, he did not leave as Gu Ning expected, but walked straight in, as naturally as returning to his own bedroom.
Gu Ning's mouth twitched and she rolled her eyes secretly.
Chu Yunyi was acting so abnormally because he must have wanted to get some news from him.
So what should I do to maintain my character and send Chu Yunyi away at the same time?
Before she could come up with a two-pronged solution, Chu Yunyi had people scattering gifts all over the floor.
He looked at Gu Ning affectionately and said softly: "I heard that you were injured, so I came from Yangzhou day and night. The original family was so brave! Thanks to the kindness of my great-aunt, they actually spared their lives!"
"Ning'er, don't worry, I will definitely vent your anger for you!"
Chu Yunyi was firm in every word he said.
Gu Ning was greatly moved and nodded with tears in her eyes.
Just when Chu Yunyi felt that his plan was successful and wanted to continue to pry out information from Gu Ning, he saw Gu Ning's face became solemn and her beautiful eyes widened and stared at him.
"Have you met anyone before Your Highness met me?"
"I've only met my aunt." Chu Yunyi asked doubtfully, "Why would Ning'er ask like this?"
Gu Ning sneered, raised her bright face, and raised her peach blossom eyes high, glaring at him coldly: "Grandma has been worshiping Buddha for many years and never uses rouge and gouache. The smell of rouge and powder on Your Highness's body is what Jiang Ning is most excited about right now!"
She changed her shy look just now, and her raised eyebrows looked particularly domineering.
Chu Yunyi's heart thumped, and he suddenly felt that something was not good.
"Your Highness, don't say it's on me!" Gu Ning shook his hand away perversely, "I've been recovering from illness, so I can't use these things!"
"I'm afraid His Highness went to have a private meeting with some woman before meeting me! Did His Highness come to Jiangning for me? Or for that woman?" Gu Ning stared at him and asked irritably, "Why did Your Highness come to Jiangning in the first place?"
Can the promise still count?"
