The ignored brother of the guard stared at the two of them dumbfounded, thinking that young men and women these days are really open-minded. They dare to hug me and kiss me in broad daylight. They really don't treat bachelors as human beings!
Qu Le frowned: "It hurts."
Hearing this, Li Changfeng let go of his arm, opened his cloak and looked at her chest. Sure enough, he saw that the dried blood at the skirt was showing signs of moisture again. His expression became panicked for a moment, and he quickly asked: "What happened to the wound?"
Cracked."
He must have accidentally touched the wound when he pulled her into his arms. Li Changfeng lowered his eyes and said with great remorse, "I'm sorry."
Seeing his uncomfortable look, as if the person with the open wound was not her but him, Qu Le couldn't find a chance to scold him, so she had to look away and said angrily: "Injure someone first, and then
You have the audacity to apologize again, you really have the same habits as a certain pervert, I will introduce you two to each other later if I have a chance, and you will definitely be able to chat."
"Some...pervert?" Li Changfeng didn't know why, but his attention was soon drawn to the blood on Qu Le's chest again. He said with concern, "I'll take you back to the car to change your dressing."
Qu Le endured the pain and said: "Forget it, you'll get used to the pain, so don't bother with it anymore."
"You..." Li Changfeng was about to say something when a guard led a middle-aged man out of the palace.
This middle-aged man was wearing a scholar's long shirt and had a three-inch black beard. He was tall and thin, with a gentle and elegant temperament. As soon as Qu Le saw him, she immediately showed surprise and shouted happily: "Mr. Han?"
Hearing her cry, Mr. Han also laughed. He walked quickly to Qu Le and smiled happily: "It is indeed you! As soon as I saw the jade jade, I knew it must be you.
Got it!"
Qu Le was overjoyed to meet an old friend again unexpectedly: "I came here to see Mr. Jing Ling. I didn't expect you to be here too. It's such a surprise. By the way, where are Mrs. Han and A Mu?"
"The bitch lives in the palace. I will take you to see her later. Amu followed the prince into the palace and will not come back until dark. They will be very happy to know that you are here," Mr. Han turned sideways
Shenzi said, "It's cold outside, please come and talk first."
Qu Le hurriedly said: "I came here this time and brought a few friends with me. I wonder if you can..."
Mr. Han smiled and said: "Since you are a friend of A Le, you are also a friend of Han, please come in!"
Qu Le happily turned around and said to Yan Jiu who was standing next to the sleigh: "Please help bring A Lang and Mr. Gu in with us."
Under the guidance of Mr. Han, everyone walked through numerous courtyards and small buildings, bypassed several corridors and paths, and finally arrived at the hall specially used to receive distinguished guests.
The house was very warm after the earth dragon was burned. Qu Le and others took off their cloaks. The maids stepped forward and took the cloaks with both hands, then silently stepped aside to dry the cloaks on the fumigation cage. Their movements were very careful, and they did not make any noise.
From the sound of their children, it can be seen that they have been well trained.
While Mr. Han warmly invited them to sit down, he asked everyone to bring them tea and water, and also ordered the kitchen to bring some fresh fruits.
After both parties had exchanged greetings, Mr. Han finally asked about the purpose of their visit to the palace this time.
Qu Le did not go around in circles with him, she said straight to the point: "To tell you the truth, we actually arrived in Xiya City a few days ago, but we accidentally offended King Yu, and he arrested two of my friends. We spent a lot of time
After going through all kinds of hardships, I escaped from Prince Yu's Mansion. Now people from Prince Yu's Mansion are searching for us all over the city. I am really desperate, so I have to shamelessly ask for your help."
Mr. Han asked again carefully about the details of their grievances with King Yu, and Qu Le told him everything in detail.
After listening to Qu Le's narration, Mr. Han said to her seriously: "King Yu is a wealthy man with a moody temperament. If you offend him this time, I'm afraid your life in the future will not be easy."
Qu Le's expression was heavy: "I know, that's why I'm even more troubled."
Originally, she just wanted to come to Xiya City to bring her grandpa back, but she didn't expect that not only did she fail to see her grandpa as she wished, but she was also targeted by the moody King Yu. This was truly a blessing and misfortune that never comes singly. Thinking about it, she felt a headache.
Mr. Han said: "Although King Yu is difficult to deal with, our Prince Ling's Mansion is not a vegetarian. You and your friends will stay here for the time being. When the prince comes back, I will report the matter to him and see what he can do."
Is there any solution?"
Having said this, he paused again and said in a more serious tone: "This is Prince Ling's Mansion. No matter how audacious Prince Yu is, he would not dare to come here to act wild. You just need to live peacefully, and the prince will make the decision for you."
Qu Le was very moved: "Thank you."
Mr. Han asked someone to take them down to rest first. He said, "I will inform you when the prince comes back."
Qu Le thanked him again and again, and they left the hall and moved into the guest rooms arranged for them by Mr. Han. The rooms were exquisitely decorated and had everything in them. Not long after Qu Le sat down, two handsome young men appeared.
The maid knocked on the door and walked in.
They held two sets of brand-new clothes in their hands, as well as some gauze, wound medicine, and hot water, which they said were all prepared under Master Li Changfeng's instructions.
Qu Le took off her blood-stained clothes and let the maids help her clean her wounds. After changing the medicine, she put on a bright yellow dress with furred edges. The hem of the skirt was sprinkled with large pieces of white peony petals.
It looks very delicate and soft from a distance.
Qu Le lifted up the hem of her skirt and looked at it, a little curious: "Are these clothes for the women in the palace?"
A maid smiled and replied: "No, Master Li Changfeng brought this."
Qu Le was stunned for a moment: "Where did he get women's clothes?"
The maids covered their mouths and snickered: "We don't know this either."
After the maid left, Qu Le opened the window a crack. She sat next to the brazier, warming herself while looking at the snowy scene outside the window. As a result, Li Changfeng appeared not long after looking at it, and he stood outside the window without anyone noticing.
It blocked Qule's view of the snowy scene.
He said: "You are really in a good mood. You can sit in the room and enjoy the breeze on a cold day, and you are not afraid of catching cold and getting sick."
After saying that, he closed the window without asking any questions.
Li Changfeng pushed the door open and walked in. He looked around and said as if unintentionally: "Although your room is a bit small, it is well decorated. It seems that your relationship with Yu Ling should be very good."
Qu Le ignored his harsh words. She frowned and said, "The doors and windows are closed, and the room is very stuffy."
After hearing what she said, Li Changfeng reopened the window, and then moved a screen to block the window. In this way, the air in the room became more circulated and fresher, and it also prevented the cold wind from blowing on people. He left
He sat down in front of Qule: "Shall we talk?"
Qu Le was noncommittal: "What are you talking about?"
Li Changfeng did not answer her directly, he said: "Whatever you want to know, we will talk about it."
Qule: "I want to know your true identity."
Li Changfeng: "I thought you would want to know the relationship between me and Suyue."
"That's a private matter between the two of you. I don't want to know too much."
"You are really ruthless. Just a word of 'private matter' completely separated me from you." Li Changfeng helped her lift the blanket covering her knees, "But even if you don't want to know, I have to
Let me explain this matter clearly to you."
Li Changfeng looked into Qu Le's eyes and said clearly word by word: "Actually, I am..."
"Ale, I have something to tell you," Gu Fuzhou pushed open the door and entered, interrupting what Li Changfeng was about to say.
Li Changfeng stared at Gu Fuzhou with an unkind expression: "What's the matter?"
"So you're here too," Gu Fuzhou saw that he was in a bad mood and smiled at him, then strode over to Qu Le and sat down. He said to Qu Le, "I suddenly remembered something.
, it may be related to you, so I came to tell you."
Qu Le did not look at Li Changfeng's gloomy expression. She looked at Gu Fuzhou and said, "I just have something to ask you."
Gu Fuzhou: "Then you ask first."
Qu Le was not polite to him. She asked straight to the point: "Why did King Yu poison you and Alang?"
Hearing this question, Li Changfeng's eyes changed. He had also felt strange about this matter before. If King Yu wanted to kill Gu Fuzhou and Qu Lang, he only needed one sentence, so why bother to do so?
Poisoning the two of them? Unless there's something hidden behind it.
Gu Fuzhou smiled bitterly: "King Yu threatened us. If we want to save your life, we have to do something for him. In order to control us, he forced us to take the heart-eating Gu."
Qule: "What does he want you to do?"
"Kill someone."
Qu Le looked stern: "Who to kill?"
Gu Fuzhou lowered his voice slightly: "The saint of southern Xinjiang."
Hearing these five words, Qu Le's expression suddenly became a little strange. She asked: "Does he have any grudge against the Saint of Southern Xinjiang?"
"I don't know. He didn't tell us anything. He just told us to kill the saint and hang her head on the city gate."
The corner of Qule's mouth twitched: "He is really quite poisonous."
Li Changfeng said thoughtfully: "Voodoo poison is something unique to southern Xinjiang. How could King Yu have it in his hands?"
Qu Le then said: "Not everyone can make poison in southern Xinjiang. There are very few people who can get poison." When she returns to southern Xinjiang in the future, she will have to check who dares to use poison.
Who is the person who secretly leaked the poison?
Li Changfeng glanced at her: "How do you know there are very few people who can get the poison? Are you familiar with southern Xinjiang?"
Qu Le was choked, and she pretended to be calm and said slowly: "I have a friend who is from southern Xinjiang, and she told me these things."
"Friend?" Li Changfeng's eyes changed slightly and his tone was dangerous, "A man?"
Qu Le twitched the corner of her mouth: "Female."
Li Changfeng's tone immediately became gentle again: "Oh."
Gu Fuzhou finally found the opportunity to interject: "It's time to talk about business. If you want to flirt, please do it when I'm not around. Thank you."
Qule immediately defended loudly: "We are not flirting!"
"Okay, okay, you are not flirting, you are very innocent," Gu Fuzhou looked at her with an expression that said, "You don't need to say anything, I understand." (To be continued)
