Chapter 22

 Gu Qingling handed her branch over.

"So heavy!"

Gu Chenying couldn't lift it with one hand, so she had to hold it tightly with both hands.

He looked at the branches in front of him in disbelief and found that he actually rejected this thing from the bottom of his heart.

"Where did you get this?"

Gu Qingling blinked and whispered: "Well, that's right, I picked it up in Qingmengze."

Gu Chenying frowned and looked down at the branches in front of her, but couldn't see anything, so she could only return them.

When he saw the soft little breasts, he lifted the branch with one hand, and his face turned dark.

Could it be that I am weak? I can’t even lift a branch?

Gu Chenying couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

Inside the Wanji Hall.

"Second Young Master, so you mean that the young lady suddenly went to a forbidden place because she was framed by an unknown person?"

Gu Cangyin: "Well. This note can explain everything."

Bian Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.

Gu Yunye crossed his arms across his chest and leaned lazily against the doorpost: "Humph. I think you are all old fools. We are such a small group like Qingling. If someone hadn't deliberately lured her, she would have had the guts to enter the dense forest.

?Let alone destroying the barrier!"

His straightforward and mocking words made the elders who advocated punishing Gu Qingling turn pale.

Gu Sheng said coldly: "No matter what the reason, she violated the family rules after all, and she should be punished!"

Gu Cangyin raised her eyes lightly: "Dad, there is no need to punish Ling'er in such a hurry."

"What, do you want to protect her?"

The father and son were at war with each other, while the elders in the Wanji Palace looked at each other, and no one dared to persuade them to make peace.

Gu Cangyin suddenly said: "You are too entangled in the theory of rewards and punishments, and you have ignored another possibility."

"Ha... what other possibilities are there?" Gu Sheng's tone was full of sarcasm, and he seemed to insist that it was Gu Qingling who ran into the dense forest because she was naughty.

As for Gu Cangyin's words, they were just to exonerate her.

"What if 'that person' in Qingmengze wants her to go in?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wanji Palace fell into deathly silence.

Gu Sheng had a cold face, but there was already a storm in her heart.

If it was really "that person" who wanted her to go in, then she must not punish Gu Qingling.

Otherwise, if you anger it...

The terrifying power that destroyed the world in his memory was like a wake-up call, making Gu Sheng wake up from his anger.

Gu Cangyin looked at everyone's expressions and lowered his eyes without saying a word.

After a while, Gu Sheng pinched his eyebrows tiredly.

He said: "This matter does not need to be discussed further. Gu Qingling broke into the forbidden area without authorization, but because he saved Xiao Wu, his merits and demerits are equal to each other. He will be punished by hand-copying the precepts twice and will be personally examined by Elder Bianji. Please step aside."

Gu Cangyin's eyebrows darkened slightly.

"Dad, what is sleeping in Qingmengze? Why are you still unwilling to tell me?"

Gu Sheng said coldly: "When you become the head of the family, I will tell you naturally."

He waved his hand and everyone dispersed, passing by Gu Cangyin.

Only Elder Mancao stopped.

She whispered: "Second Young Master, the little lady's behavior this afternoon is obviously related to the power of the divine koi."

"I know."

Elder Mancao: "You'd better pay more attention. If that power is so strong that even the young lady can't control it, it will lead to a big mistake sooner or later."

Gu Cangyin curled her fingers hanging by her side.

Children are not scary, and sharp blades are not scary either.

The most terrifying thing is the child holding a sharp knife.

He covered up the darkness in his dark eyes and nodded: "I know."

Silence returned to the Wanji Hall.

Gu Yunye stepped forward: "Second brother, all the monsters in the dense forest have been cleared away. However, that strange power has not disappeared. Is it related to the Pei family?"

Gu Cangyin said softly: "Do other families have this situation?"

Gu Yunye shook his head.

"I know, I will let Rujing investigate this matter. Let's go back to Tingyun Pavilion first."

……

Gu Qingling held the brush and frowned.

There are a few ink stains on the pink cheeks, like a little tabby cat.

She wrote the last word carefully, finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat back on the chair.

"Phew, I've written it, Sister Baiyin!"

Baiyin saw the small handprints one after another on the rice paper and covered his lips and smiled.

Caiyin came over and laughed mercilessly.

"Pfft... Hahahaha! My lady, are these the commandments you copied by hand? Why does it look like a painting?"

Gu Qingling held the writing brush and looked at them with her big black round eyes in confusion.

"I'm not drawing, I'm writing very seriously!"

Baiyin stepped forward and wiped Gu Qingling's soft cheeks with a handkerchief.

"Don't laugh, Caiyin. This is what the lady has worked so hard to write. I will collect it and send it to the Lu Ge."

Ayin held back her laughter and put the rice paper away.

Gu Qingling raised her face: "Sister Baiyin, I'm sleepy and want to sleep."

"Okay. Let's go wash our hands and go to bed."

After cleaning up, Baiyin closed the door softly.

But Gu Qingling opened her eyes quickly and quietly put the pillow under the quilt.

From a distance, the quilt was bulging, as if she was really curled up in it to sleep.

She quietly slipped out of Tingyun Pavilion and returned to Qing Mengze.

The barrier is intact and as long as someone tries to break in, a warning will be issued.

But the little guy followed what Master Yunji said, squatting in a corner with his little butt sticking out, digging in the soil with the twigs in his hands.

As she dug, she saw a small hole, just big enough for her to crawl in.

"Hoo!"

She wiped the dirt off her hands and whispered: "The sky is round, let's go!"

The branch in his hand trembled slightly, and almost in the blink of an eye, the scene around the little guy changed!

She stood up happily and shouted: "Master, I'm here!"

A shadowy figure slowly walked out of the white mist.

Yun Chi was dressed in aqua blue robes that danced in the wind, and her long black hair hung lazily on her shoulders.

"Well. Have you remembered everything I taught you before?"

"Remember!"

Yun Chi nodded with satisfaction: "Show it to me once."

Gu Qingling immediately stood still and waved the small branch in his hand in accordance with the teachings of Yun Chi.

At first, Yunji just leaned on the branch and looked down lazily.

But when he saw that the little guy finished a set cleanly and neatly, his expression gradually became serious.

"You...have learned everything?"

Lu Qingling's cheeks were as red as an apple.

She smiled and said: "Yes! It's just that I still have to copy the commandments by hand, so I'm a few days late..."

Commandments?

Yun Chi frowned: "How dare those people from the Gu family punish you?"

You are so brave!

Or do they think they can no longer pose a threat to them while they are recuperating in Qingmengze?

Realizing that his master was really angry, the little guy quickly stepped forward and pulled his sleeves.

"Master, Master, are you angry? Don't be angry, I brought you delicious food."

As she spoke, she took out a piece of flower cake that had been broken into pieces.

Pieces of cake kept falling from between her fingers.

Gu Qingling: "Ah! Broken, broken."

Yun Chi: "..."

Yun Chi was a little disgusted: "You can eat it yourself."

The anger in my heart also disappeared and turned into waves of helplessness.

Is this little thing...smart or stupid?
