Chapter 310 The Prime Minister’s Little Jiaojiao is a Black Heart Lotus 93

Chapter 310 The Prime Minister’s little Jiaojiao is a black-hearted lotus (93)

Bai Wu's words were like a basin of cold water poured on Gu Mo's head.

As if he couldn't believe what she said, the astonishment in Gu Mo's eyes gradually deepened.

He knew that Bai Wu had hatred for Zhao Xuanyun because of the Su family's affairs.

The Jiang family incident also made him see Bai Wu's desire for revenge.

The reason why he kept seeing through the situation but not revealing it was because he had selfish motives.

I used to think that just letting her let go and be that carefree and unrestrained person would be fine.

But later he realized that it was almost impossible.

Those bloody feuds brought pain and suffering, just like the darkness he experienced, like the gangrene attached to the bones, which cannot be eradicated at all.

Instead of enduring it silently, it is better to welcome it happily.

So as long as she thinks about it, he will be the sharpest sword she can use to cut down her enemies.

But Gu Mo never expected that she would attack Zhao Xuanyun so quickly.

Even if she were to take action, she wouldn't be able to use such a risky method.

What was it that forced her to confess?

While Gu Mo was thinking, Zhao Xuanyun's eyes had already turned into waves: "Gu Mo, I believe that you are an important minister entrusted by the late emperor, so I rely on you very much, but you have repeatedly challenged my trust in you, and you are so protective in an attempt to poison me.

Do my people also want to oppose me like the Jiang family?"

Zhao Xuanlang was horrified.

Not to mention whether Gu Mo did it or not, if this word got out today, there is no guarantee that it would not cause some turmoil in the capital.

He quickly stepped forward, holding back his numb scalp to dissuade him: "Brother Huang, Gu Mo is not that kind of person, and neither is Miss Bai. There must be some misunderstanding..."

"Misunderstanding?" Zhao Xuanyun sneered, "She herself has confessed her guilt, but you keep saying it's a misunderstanding?"

"Come here!" Zhao Xuanyun lowered his face and said sternly, "Arrest Bai Wu and put her in the sky prison. The first floor in the world will be sealed immediately."

Then he looked at Gu Mo and said word for word: "Those who disobey the order will be killed without mercy."

Gu Mo's body trembled almost imperceptibly, but he still stood in front of Bai Wu and did not leave.

Bai Wu bit her lips and pulled him: "Gu Mo, don't do this. I don't want you to be implicated. Get out of the way."

Gu Mo looked back at her and held her hand tightly: "Ah Wu, tell me, I want to hear the truth."

Bai Wu looked into his eyes and was already crying: "I did it, there is no misunderstanding, I was dizzy, I couldn't hold it back, I..."

"Ah Wu, why are you so stupid?" Gu Mo smiled bitterly.

If we really want to take action, he should do it.

Bai Wu opened Gu Mo's hand, wiped away her tears, and looked away: "His Royal Highness King Qiyang, please take Master Gu back."

Then she said in a hoarse voice, almost begging: "Please..."

Although Zhao Xuanlang couldn't bear it, he knew that the fewer people involved in this kind of thing, the better.

So he grabbed Gu Mo's arm and tried to pull him over.

But no matter how hard he tried, Gu Mo still knelt on one knee in front of Bai Wu and didn't move.

Zhao Xuanlang was so anxious that he could only squat beside him helplessly and whispered: "Gu Jingxing, please wake up. Your being so stubborn now will only make Brother Huang even more angry. We still have a chance to save Bai Wu. You come back with me first."

Okay?"

Gu Mo clenched his fists.

Although he was unwilling to do so, he knew that this was the safest way at the moment.

He leaned forward and held Bai Wu tightly in his arms, his eyes full of determination: "Wait for me, and I will definitely rescue you safe and sound."





As soon as Zhao Ziqing got the news, he immediately rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But Gu Mo was not there, so she only saw Zhao Xuanlang who was pacing anxiously in the study.

Zhao Ziqing gritted his teeth and said, "What's going on? How could Bai Wu, who is so good, be kidnapped by the emperor's brother?"

Zhao Xuanlang told everything that happened during the day:

"...Sister Huang, don't worry too much, Gu Mo will enter the palace in the afternoon, he must have something to do..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the study door was pushed open, and Gu Mo walked in with a tired face.

Zhao Ziqing clenched his fists angrily and rushed forward: "Didn't you say you could protect her well? This is the result of your protection?!"

Zhao Xuanlang hugged her in his arms with quick eyes and hands: "Sister, please calm down, this really has nothing to do with Gu Mo. Let's sit down calmly and discuss countermeasures."

Zhao Ziqing took a deep breath and tried to suppress his anger, then sat on a chair nearby and looked at Gu Mo with a sneer: "Okay, calm down, right? I want to see what Mr. Gu has to say?"

Gu Mo walked over numbly and sat on the chair in front of the desk.

He lowered his head and held his forehead with one hand, as if he was trying to restrain something, and all the veins on his forearms popped out.

Zhao Ziqing had never seen him look so on the verge of collapse, and most of his anger disappeared immediately.

Zhao Xuanlang also became uneasy and asked anxiously: "What's wrong? What happened? Didn't you go to see the emperor's brother? What did he say?"

Gu Mo was silent for a long time, and then his voice came out from his dry throat: "Your Majesty... he knows Bai Wu's true identity."

"What?!" Zhao Ziqing stood up in shock, "How could this happen? How could the emperor..."

Gu Mo's eyes narrowed as he blamed himself: "It's all my fault. I should have been more firm and not let her enter the palace."

Or if he had been more ruthless and sent Bai Wu out of Tianyuan Kingdom directly, he would not have caused the current situation.

Zhao Xuanlang felt his heart sink when he heard this: "Then according to what you said, regardless of whether Bai Wu has been poisoned or not, Brother Huang will not let Bai Wu go, right?"

Gu Mo tightened his hand and continued for a long time: "The Emperor has given an order that at noon the day after tomorrow... the execution will be carried out."

The last three words seemed to take all Gu Mo's strength. He covered his eyes and tried hard not to let his collapse be exposed to the air.

Zhao Ziqing and Zhao Xuanlang were also shocked and speechless for a long time.

"How could this happen? How could this happen..." Zhao Ziqing fell down on the chair in panic and kept mumbling.

The three of them never said a word again, even their breathing was stagnant, and the study fell into a deathly silence.

Finally, Gu Mo stood up, and the moon shadow outside the window enveloped him. Zhao Ziqing could not see his expression clearly, and could only hear him saying in a low voice:

"It's getting late. You should go back first. I'm sorry for causing you to worry."

Zhao Ziqing opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end no sound came out.

She saw all Gu Mo's pain.

Yes, after all, it was the person he loved deeply, and now that he was killed, his collapse would only be worse than theirs.

But the last thing we need right now is collapse.

As long as there is a glimmer of hope, even a glimmer...

Zhao Ziqing tried his best to calm down, stood up unsteadily and said: "There will definitely be a way. Don't be too anxious. As long as it's not the last moment, I will do my best to save her."

"Yes, and I." Zhao Xuanlang also said firmly.



Zhao Ziqing and Zhao Xuanlang left, the study door closed, and the last glimmer of light was taken away.

Gu Mo hid in the darkness, the darkness in his eyes was actually darker than the night.

It's not impossible.

There is another way that will surely rescue her safely.

"Ah Wu, you must wait for me..."
