Although there is a waning moon in the sky, the moonlight is bright and clear. This bright moonlight shines on the earth, giving the vast world a hazy beauty.
Two black shadows jumped quickly on the roof, flying past like dragonflies in the water, flying towards Prince Jing's Mansion.
Gu Chengyu looked at the small clock in the space and found that only an hour and a half had passed. He took off the paper full of fonts and replaced it with another one.
"Boom!"
Just when Gu Chengyu picked up the tea bowl and was about to take a breath, there was a knock on the study door.
Gu Chengyu's eyes narrowed slightly, he held the BS in the space in his hand, and then planned to ask aloud.
Unexpectedly, the person outside the door spoke first, "Sir! It's already dark, are you still awake?"
Gu Chengyu put the BS back and said, "Is it the beginning of spring? I still have some things to do, so you should go and rest first!"
It's so late, why hasn't Li Chun gone to bed yet? He doesn't need servants to serve him at night, Li Chun should know that.
He never asked Li Chun to stay overnight, but Li Chun knocked on the door in the middle of the night. This was really strange.
Li Chun did not listen to Gu Chengyu's words. She pushed the door open and walked in.
Gu Chengyu found that she was holding a tray in her hand, and the bowl on the tray was still steaming.
"Sir! I saw that you were still up so late, so I cooked a bowl of mushroom and chicken porridge for you." Li Chun entered the room and placed the tray in his hand on the table.
Gu Chengyu frowned and said, "Leave it alone! I'm not used to eating late-night snacks, why haven't you fallen asleep yet?"
Li Chun smiled and said, "My lord has not slept up so late, how dare I sleep?"
After Lichun finished speaking, he handed the bowl to Gu Chengyu.
"Your Excellency is busy with official duties, so you have no time to spare when you come back. You should pay attention to your health."
Li Chun stood in front of Gu Chengyi and looked at him with a smile. The tenderness in his eyes made Gu Chengyu's eyebrows frown even more.
"Ahem! You go and rest first! I still have things to do." Gu Chengyu didn't touch the bowl of porridge, and his tone was a little impatient.
A hint of hurt flashed in Lichun's eyes, and then he glanced at the big letter on Gu Chengyu's desk.
"Then, sir, drink the porridge while it's hot and rest early! I'll take my leave first."
Li Chun saluted to Gu Chengyu, then picked up the tray and walked out of the study slowly.
Gu Chengyu watched Li Chun leave the study with cold eyes, and set his eyes on the steaming bowl of mushroom and chicken porridge.
By some strange coincidence, he took out a silver needle and put it into the porridge.
After a long time, he found that the silver needle had not changed color. Gu Chengyu laughed at himself.
He remembered the way Li Chun looked at him just now. Could it be that Li Chun was interested in him?
"Ah! There is a ghost!"
This scream broke the peace in Prince Jing's palace, and chaos suddenly broke out in the palace.
Ming Mo's breath was a little unstable. He didn't expect to avoid these secret guards, but fell into the hands of a daughter-in-law.
Originally, the two of them searched several houses, but with the smoke, they were able to go anywhere.
Who would have thought that this wife was actually planning to sneak into this room.
The two of them stunned a man in the house and just checked that there were no children in the house.
When I came out and saw that there was no one around and there was no sign of a secret guard, I planned to close the door and then look for the next room.
The daughter-in-law saw a flash of light in the house from a distance and hurriedly hid in the dark. Then she saw two black shadows flashing under the moonlight.
In panic, he screamed, thinking he had seen a ghost.
Mingmo and the others were in the house just now, and the wife was far away, so she came here secretly, so naturally they didn't notice.
Ming Mo and Ming Yan secretly screamed, this would definitely alert the guards in the mansion.
"Evacuate quickly!" Ming Yan whispered. He had already heard someone coming.
"Where to go?"
"Come here, there's an assassin!"
Several figures rushed over quickly, and one of them had already stabbed them with a sword.
Within a moment, several people were fighting together.
"Your Majesty! There is an assassin in the house!" Xiao Chengzi hurriedly entered Prince Jing's bedroom and said in a panic.
"Come here, protect the prince!" There was a mess outside, and Tang Shenling's voice sounded outside the house.
Ming Mo and Ming Yan were scolding their mothers, why was it such an unlucky coincidence?
More and more guards gathered, and Ming Mo felt more and more strenuous.
"You go first, I'll hold them back." Ming Yan and Ming Mo defended the enemy back to back, Ming Mo said in Ming Yan's ear.
"No, you can't hold them off by yourself."
"Go and see the little baby, don't let anyone take him away." Prince Jing got out of bed and ordered Tang Shenling.
"Change my clothes, let's go! Let's go meet the assassin too!"
The corners of Prince Jing's lips raised slightly, and the fish finally took the bait.
Ming Yan's hand holding the hilt of the sword became increasingly difficult, his breath was already very unstable, and Ming Mo's condition was not much better.
Both of them knew they had to find a way to escape, otherwise they would die or be used to blackmail you.
Mingmo was breathing heavily, and the wounds on his legs made him stand a little unsteady.
Gu Chengyu glanced at the clock. The time had come, but Mingmo and the others hadn't come back yet. It seemed they had been discovered.
He stood up and paced back and forth in the room. If he was discovered, there was no need to worry because the letter saved his life.
He has thought about it in the past few days. The emperor is getting older and he cannot remain a pure minister. He will always have to choose someone to be loyal to him in the future.
Although Prince Jing's calculation made him very unhappy, he had to admit that Prince Jing's ability was not inferior to that of other princes, or even worse.
It's just such a coercive method that it's absolutely impossible for me to willingly loyal to him.
However, he still included Prince Jing as the object of investigation.
The officialdom will never follow his preferences, nor can he help anyone become the emperor by himself.
If Prince Jing really becomes the new emperor, can he still resign and return to his hometown?
Suddenly, Gu Chengyu stopped and said, "These two idiots!"
He took down the sword hanging on the wall of the study room, and without even having time to change into his night clothes, he stepped lightly and flew quickly towards Prince Jing's Mansion.
Although Gu Chengyu's Qinggong was not as good as walking on the snow without a trace, his speed was extremely fast.
He passed over the roofs and treetops, and in just a few breaths, Prince Jing's Mansion was already in sight.
It is now the second watch. Logically speaking, the palace should be dark, but at this time, the palace of Prince Jing is brightly lit with candles.
"I advise you not to resist stubbornly. As long as you put down the sword in your hands, I will protect your lives."
Xiao Chengzi supported Prince Jing and stood aside to watch the battle, while Prince Jing covered his pale face with a handkerchief.
He looked at the two masked men, but his eyes were as sharp as sharp knives.
Mingmo and the others didn't speak. There were more and more wounds on their bodies, and they couldn't hold on much longer.
"You have heard clearly what the prince said. As long as you put down your sword, the prince will not kill you."
Xiao Chengzi's feminine voice sounded along with the sound of swords clashing, but Mingmo and the others still turned a deaf ear.
Originally, the guards were pressing forward step by step, and Mingmo and the others could no longer resist it, but they knew in their hearts that it was time for them to kill themselves.11
