First Lady of the Crown Prince

   Chapter 678

  After Gu Jiao returned to the outer city in the afternoon, she went to Tianxiang Pavilion and changed her medicine to Gu Chengfeng. She arrived home late in the evening.

  As soon as I walked to the street that intersects with my alley, I saw Ma Wang and Mr. Meng Lao.

  The horse king is different from the other horse in the family. He has to go out every day for a walk, otherwise he will lose his temper and bully another horse in the backyard.

  Ma Wang saw Gu Jiao, and decisively did not slip away from the old man.

  It bit the rein, dashed to Gu Jiao, and then handed the rein to Gu Jiao.

  It wants to slip Gu Jiao.

  ...

  The rain in the outer city came earlier and heavier than the inner city. It was a torrential rain. Gu Jiao and Mr. Meng found a restaurant with stables to take shelter from the rain.

  This avoidance lasted more than an hour, and it was dark.

   "The rain stopped." Gu Jiao said, looking out the window.

  Mr. Meng stood up: “Then go back quickly, don’t get off again soon.”

  Gu Jiao said, "I'm going to lead the horse."

  The horse shed is next to the backyard of the restaurant, and Gu Jiao leads the horse king out.

  There was a sound of horseshoes from far and near on the street. Gu Jiao didn't care. The road was very wide and there was no need to give way to anyone.

  But when Gu Jiao led Ma Wang to the entrance of the restaurant, a child suddenly ran out of it.

  Seeing that he was about to run under the horse's hooves, Gu Jiao leaped forward and rolled to the other side of the street with the child in her arms.

  The horseshoe fell heavily, and the water splashed everywhere where Gu Jiao snatched the child!

  The person apparently saw the child who rushed out. He used the greatest strength to tighten the reins, but ran too fast. If it weren't for Gu Jiao's pounce, the child would have died under his horse's hoof.

  He looked at the drenched teenagers and children coldly, and said fiercely, "Don’t look for death next time!"

   Several of his companions chased up, and one of them said humanely: "Okay, let's go quickly, don't delay things."

   "Huh!" He grabbed the rein, hit the horse with a whip, and the horse went away.

   "Son! Son!"

  A woman in the restaurant stumbled over.

  Gu Jiao handed the child to her.

  Gu Jiao protected him with her body when he rolled over in the water. He didn't have any serious problems except that his clothes got wet a little.

   "Thank you young man! Thank you young man!" The woman thanked her child again and again.

  Gu Jiao didn’t speak, she walked across the street with a faint expression, and came to Mr. Meng Lao: “Go.

Mr. Meng looked weirdly at the few figures that gradually disappeared at the end of the street: "Weird, what are the people in the Prince's Mansion going to do at this late hour? Isn't that direction the South Gate of the outer city? They are going out of Shengdu ?"

  Gu Jiao said, "Those who were from the Prince's Mansion just now?"

  Mr. Meng nodded: "It's the Jinyiwei of the Prince's Mansion."

Although he did not wear Jin Yiwei clothes, he had seen one of them in the Prince's Mansion.

  Gu Jiao paused, and said: "They have murderous in their eyes, they are going to kill."

  She was a killer in her previous life and is very familiar with this state.

   "Killing?" Mr. Meng frowned and looked again in the direction where the few people were leaving. They were extremely fast, and they were long gone on the street.

   "That direction seems to be..."

  The imperial tombs.

  The next day, the sky cleared.

  Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun go to the academy for classes.

  Won another game, Gu Jiao deeply felt the enthusiasm of the students in the academy. From the moment she entered the gate of the academy, she felt like she was walking on a flowery road.

   "Rokuro!"

   "Rokuro!"

   "Rokuro Rokuro! Handsome turn the audience!"

  Gu Jiao glanced at the welcoming people.

  ...Not necessarily.

  Master Wu sympathized with the hard work of everyone in the competition, and did not let them stay for training today. Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun returned home early.

  As soon as he arrived at the door of the house, a small glutinous rice dumpling rushed over.

   "Jiaojiao!"

  Gu Jiao caught him with one hand: "Clear space. Hey, the speed is faster again."

   Xiao Jingkong raised her head and said cutely, “That’s because I practice the exercises every day!”

  Afterwards, he greeted Gu Xiaoshun: "Brother Xiaoshun!"

  Gu Xiaoshun squeezed his face.

  Gu Jiao took his little hand and walked in, looking at the hall as she walked.

   "Don't look, Xiao Heng didn't come."

  With a familiar voice, Gu Chengfeng swaggered out from inside.

  He glanced at the small clearance that was being led by Gu Jiao, and said, "I went to the inner city to pick him up."

Xiao Jingkong immediately said solemnly: "Jiaojiao, I have no class today! I am not playing truant!"

   "Hmm." Gu Jiao nodded believingly.

  Having Xiao Heng in, won’t let you play truant.

   "Are you hurt?" Gu Jiao asked Gu Chengfeng.

   "Jiaojiao, I'm going to find Xiao Eleven!" Xiao Jingkong tilted his head and said.

  Gu Jiao touched his little head: "Go."

   Xiao Jingkong waved her little hand and ran over: "Little Eleven! I'm coming!"

  The horse king who was grazing in the backyard exploded, and the horse's body was shocked!

   Immediately came to the grinding disc and put on the cover.

  It has to be polished!

  The conversation between the two continues.

  Gu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows and said: "My injury has been fine for a long time. Didn't you see it yesterday?"

   Indeed, when Gu Jiao went to change Gu Chengfeng's dressing yesterday, she found that he was almost recovered.

  Gu Jiao said, "It's just right that you are here, and the stitches of the wound will be removed in a while."

  Gu Chengfeng: "..."

  Gu Chengfeng was pushed into the house, but Gu Jiao had no resistance.

  His martial arts this year was actually very profitable, but compared with the speed of this girl's progress, it was not enough.

  What happened to this girl? Skills change every day.

  Gu Jiao put down the scissors and began to pack things.

  Gu Chengfeng said respectfully: "Don't you ask me how I got into the inner city?"

  Quickly praise my ability, quickly praise!

  Gu Jiao said, "Oh, Feishuang, the number one thief in Beijing, stealing a child is not a problem."

  Gu Chengfeng: What does it mean to steal a child out! Is he such a person!

   But there is a saying that entering the country of Yan is the most difficult, and there is almost no possibility of sneaking in. The barriers of the outer city of Shengdu are also strict, but it seems that as long as you enter, you will not be interrogated all the time.

  After all, everything that should be blocked is out.

  Gu Chengfeng feels that she has no sense of accomplishment in Gu Jiao’s use of verbal skills, because Gu Jiao will never pick up the stalks that people throw away. She is the king of the cold, the chat terminator.

   "Xu Fengxian gave me a new identity and an inner city talisman." Gu Chengfeng said.

  Gu Jiao looked confused, and even Gu Chengfeng has an inner city talisman?

   "I want it too," she said.

   "Then can you sing?"

  No.

   "Do you know how to tell a book?"

  Neither.

   "Or do you know how to play music?"

  This she will.

  "To a group of lusty and stinky men, no punches are allowed."

  Gu Jiao: "..."

  She is going to beat.

  Gu Chengfeng knew it would be like this. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I have something to tell you today."

   "Say." Gu Jiao put the used cotton swabs into the special basket.

  Gu Chengfeng seemed to say casually: "I have inadvertently inquired about some news in the past few days in Tianxiang Pavilion."

   He was humble when he said that he had no intention of it. He was clearly racking his brains, doing everything he could, and using his life to inquire about the news.

   "I'm listening." Gu Jiao put the used gauze into the same basket again, and these things will be burned in a while.

  Gu Chengfeng said: "It was the Nangong family who assassinated Xiao Heng in Zhaoguo last time, right?"

   "Well, didn't you know?" Gu Jiao didn't hide the story from him.

  Gu Chengfeng continued: "But do you know that the Nangong family is very close to the Prince's Mansion, and Nangong Li is the confidant of the Prince?"

  The conversation between Nangong Li and the shopkeeper that I heard at the pawnshop that day flashed in Gu Jiao’s mind—

   "His Royal Highness is very angry, saying why he can't handle even this little thing."

   "This is no small matter! The general's arm is gone!"

  So, the highness in the mouth of the shopkeeper is Prince Yan Guo?

  Is the prince Yan Guo wanting Xiao Heng's life?

  Why did Prince Yan Guo do this?

What is the relationship between Xiao Heng and the royal family of Yan Kingdom?

  Gu Chengfeng said: “The Nangong family and the Han family are both families of the prince’s camp, but the relationship between the two does not seem to be harmonious.”

  He suffered so much in the hands of the Han family, and it was inevitable that he would also inquire about the Han family when inquiring about the news.

  He continued: "I heard that the two sons of the Han family were beaten one after another. Could it be the Nangong family?"

  Gu Jiao said: "No."

  Gu Chengfeng asked weirdly: "Why are you sure that you are not from the Nangong family?"

  Gu Jiao pondered for a moment, and said honestly: "Because I did it."

  Gu Chengfeng's mouth twitched, and sure enough, this girl is still so fat...

   "Any other news?" Gu Jiao asked.

  Gu Chengfeng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It seems that there is no useful news for the time being."

  The news he inquired in Tianxiang Pavilion was not a lot, but most of them were gossips from aristocratic families. When the conversations before and after the tea and dinner are good, the value is nothing.

   "Oh, wait."

  He suddenly thought of something, and said thoughtfully: "There is still a major event. The prince is coming back. It is said that the monarch allowed her to come back."

  "Monarch, Madam." Gu Jiao paused when she arranged the small medicine box.

   Seeing her paused, Gu Chengfeng couldn’t help asking, “What’s the matter with you?”

  Gu Jiao said, "Madam, it may not be so easy to come back."

  Gu Chengfeng asked: "Why?"

  Gu Jiao looked at the medicine in the small medicine box and said, “I ran into the assassin of the Prince’s Mansion last night. If the prince’s lady is to come back, then she should be killed.”
