349 Anxiously happy, starting from the Cheng family
The road ahead was smooth, and Mrs. Cheng's mind was on Cheng Rui again, and she didn't notice Wu Liulang's absence at all.
The rest of the Cheng family only thought that Wu Liulang was leading the way. Even if they found out that Wu Liulang was not there, they would only think that Wu Liulang was the first step and would not think too much about it. They would only say...
Yan Qing noticed Gu Qiancheng's strange movements and immediately noticed something unusual. However, he did not say it out loud. Instead, he summoned his own soldiers and asked them to search for the person.
After Mrs. Cheng and the others walked away, Yan Qing waved to Gu Qiancheng and motioned for her to follow him.
Gu Qiancheng guessed what Yan Qing wanted to ask, so he stepped forward without hesitation and followed Yan Qing to an open space not far away.
"General Yan." Gu Qiancheng was blessed.
"Miss Gu, don't call me general, just call me Yan Qing." Yan Qing said bluntly, not giving Gu Qiancheng a chance to say no, and said, "Miss Gu, what's going on with Miss Cheng?"
Gu Qiancheng knew that Yan Qing was not a talkative person, and he would definitely have a reason when he asked. Gu Qiancheng did not hide anything, but just stepped forward and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "She has had a miscarriage."
The two of them were very close. Yan Qing was a head taller than Gu Qiancheng. Gu Qiancheng had to stand on tiptoe to whisper to Yan Qing...
Yan Qing's body froze the moment Gu Qiancheng came closer. Yan Qing didn't know how to react at all, and he didn't know where to move his hands and feet. Fortunately, Gu Qiancheng immediately stepped back after finishing speaking, realizing that Yan Qing didn't know how to react.
Zi Zi, Gu Qiancheng explained: "Yan Jiang... Yan Qing, please don't mind. I didn't mean it, but it's just not something that should be publicized."
"I understand," Yan Qing responded stiffly, looking a little uncomfortable, "Who is the man who left?"
"It is said that he is a distant relative of Mrs. Cheng and calls himself Wu Liulang."
The word "it is said" has a profound meaning. Yan Qing nodded in understanding. He understood what Gu Qiancheng meant.
Thinking of what Gu Qiancheng said just now, Yan Qing followed Gu Qiancheng's example and took a step forward, whispering in Gu Qiancheng's ear: "Is the child his?"
There was a fist distance between the two, but in the eyes of others, they were hugging each other. Fortunately, everyone was waiting to enter the city at this time, and no one else saw it except Yan Qing's personal soldiers.
After Yan Qing finished speaking, he followed Gu Qiancheng's example and took a step back, but his bright eyes betrayed his mood at this moment, like a child who had succeeded in his prank, secretly laughing happily.
Gu Qiancheng was a little confused. Why was General Yan so happy?
Scratching his head, Gu Qiancheng couldn't think about it and stopped thinking about it. He nodded honestly, "I accidentally bumped into him once at Baiyun Temple. But, I didn't expect that they would cause death. If I had known... that day
It’s time to give a hint.”
Although the two-month-old child was just a blood clot, it was still a life. Gu Qiancheng felt very sad to lose it like this.
"Everyone has to pay for what they have done. This matter is not your fault. Even if what happened today had not happened, the child would not have been able to keep it." Yan Qing was very sensitive and noticed that Gu Qiancheng was in a low mood, and immediately
comforted.
Gu Qiancheng smiled and said nothing more. This topic was really not suitable for two strangers to discuss. Gu Qiancheng pointed at Yan Qing and said, "Is your injury okay?"
"It's okay, the person who was beaten was not harsh." Yan Qing did not hide Gu Qiancheng's intention at all, and told him about the punishment he received from the emperor. "The emperor asked us to find the assassin within a month."
"A month? It's not a short period of time, we will definitely find it." This topic was also very dangerous, and Gu Qiancheng had no intention of discussing it in depth.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if the assassin can come and go freely in the palace, he must be supported by someone. As for who this person is, it is hard to say, because...
There are too many people who want the emperor dead.
Yan Qing also knew that this topic should not be discussed too much. He and Gu Qiancheng were not familiar enough to talk about everything. Yan Qing saw that the carriages lining up to enter the city had returned to order, so she motioned to Gu Qiancheng to go back.
Yan Qing slowly took half a step towards Gu Qiancheng. The position he was standing in happened to be the best defensive position. Although there was no danger now, Yan Qing's thoughts were rare. Gu Qiancheng thought to himself: General Yan looked at him with a cold face.
In fact, she is still very enthusiastic in her heart, otherwise she would not help Mrs. Cheng.
Gu Qiancheng's pace was not slow. Considering that Yan Qing was injured, he deliberately slowed down. But with such a short distance, Gu Qiancheng could not reach it no matter how slow he walked.
About ten steps away from the carriage, Gu Qiancheng stopped. Just as he was about to tell Yan Qing not to give it away, Yan Qing took the lead and said, "Miss Gu, do you still have the medicine you gave Cheng Huan?"
It was clearly a cold and masculine voice, but there was a hint of shyness. Gu Qiancheng smiled and nodded: "Yes, I will ask my servant to send it over when I get back."
"No, I'm going to see Cheng Huan tomorrow and pick up the medicine." Yan Qing applauded his wit. His reason was really useful.
"It will be too late until tomorrow. I'll have someone deliver the medicine when I go back. Tomorrow, General Yan can also visit Cheng Huan." Gu Qiancheng's smile was gentle, but it was irresistible. Yan Qing just wanted to take the opportunity to visit the Gu family.
, so I didn’t say much.
"Chenghuan will be very happy to know that General Yan is visiting him." Gu Qiancheng pointed to the carriage not far away, "General, I'm here."
"Yeah. Let's go slowly." Yan Qing was immersed in the joy of going to Gu's house. She didn't notice that Gu Qiancheng called her "general" again.
Gu Qiancheng got on the carriage and continued to move forward in the team. She did not ask Yan Qing to give her the privilege to go first into the city. Yan Qing did not realize this either, until after returning, the soldiers looked at him with hatred.
, Yan Qing realized that at this time, he should show off in front of Gu Qiancheng, but...
Too late!
As the coachman expected, Gu Qiancheng did not enter the city until noon, and the secret guard had not returned yet, which made Gu Qiancheng very uneasy.
It doesn't matter if Wu Liulang is not found, but nothing can happen to the secret guard.
Gu Qiancheng wanted to send a message to Qin Jiyan, but besides the coachman, there were only four flower-like maids around her, so there was no one to help her run errands.
There was no other way, so Gu Qiancheng had no choice but to look back at home first.
After getting off the carriage, before Gu Qiancheng could decide who to call to send the message, the secret guard came back, and Gu Qiancheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She really didn't want to take another life, it was too heavy.
"Girl, we haven't found him." The secret guard walked up to Gu Qiancheng, lowered his head and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Gu Qiancheng was not surprised at all and nodded lightly, "Go back and tell His Highness the King of Qin what happened. Also, ask His Highness the King of Qin if I should start with the Cheng family?"
Gu Qiancheng didn't know whether the Cheng family knew about the Goddess Tower, but she was certain that Cheng Rui knew...
