Chapter 161 - Bewitched
"It's true that I didn't come." Mrs. Xiao looked at Xiao Ruyan and said word by word, "Since she has conspired with you to plot against County Lord Changning, she must have hated her! But why didn't she come to see County Lord Changning's joke today? Don't you understand it in your heart?"
A terrifying light flashed through Xiao Ruyan's eyes, and then she covered her mouth, and her delicate little face became distorted because of anger: "No! This is impossible! Why did she harm me? I and her..."
Mrs. Xiao was extremely disappointed: "You are a noble girl carefully trained by our Xiao family. You are also smart on weekdays. Why do you become stupid when you go through these things? Gu Qingqiu used a knife to kill someone, and you are the knife that came to your door!"
"If the County Lord Changning really had an accident at the flower-welfare banquet you held, do you know what the Xiao family will face? Did you finish the Mrs. Zhenyuan who was sent to Yuqing Temple?" said Mrs. Xiao, and then slapped the table hard, "Xiao Ruyan, I put my words here. If you cause a big disaster, the Xiao family will not protect you!"
Xiao Ruyan's body trembled and looked at Mrs. Xiao in disbelief: "Grandma, you..."
"But I was poisoned by Gu Ning!" Crystal tears rolled down Xiao Ruyan's wide eyes, which was very pitiful, "Don't you ignore me?"
"You are such a elm-head!" Mrs. Xiao put down the teacup with a grudge. "The imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital say that you are not poisoned, why don't you believe it? Even if it is poisoned by the southern Xinjiang Gu, there will always be traces. But the Imperial Physician has not diagnosed you with poison! I'm afraid that you had a ghost in your heart just now, so I feel that County Lord Changning is harming you."
Xiao Ruyan shook her head desperately, and the cold touch on her neck seemed to be still there. She grabbed Mrs. Xiao's sleeve tightly and refused to let go no matter how old Mrs. Xiao scolded her.
"Grandma, you want to believe me!" She cried and her eyes turned red, and she burst into tears, "I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
"Unreasonable!" Mrs. Xiao left, "You stay in the room yourself. Tomorrow morning, the Marquis of Weiyuan will invite a matchmaker to propose marriage. It is best to put away your little thoughts. If you ruin the marriage between the two families because of your willfulness..."
If the rest is left, there is no need to say clearly that Mrs. Xiao Ruyan has already experienced it.
She covered her chest and felt that she was about to lose breath.
"Miss!" Chen Yue knelt beside the bed and cried, "Just listen to the old lady! Then Commander Thank you really is not your good match! You are a noble lady from a noble family, and you should marry into a high school!"
"Will you marry me and wait for death?"
Xiao Ruyan had a blue face, and had strength from somewhere. She waved Chen Yue's hand away and stumbled out.
No, she must find Gu Qingqiu to get the antidote!
Outside the Gu Mansion, in the restaurant.
Gu Ning held his chin and almost kept flying birds several times. Finally, he heard Chunyu's excited voice.
"Miss Xiao is here indeed!"
Gu Ning immediately stood up, stood outside the railing, looking at the movements over there from a distance, and instructed: "Send someone to keep an eye on Gu Qingqiu, and be sure to find the person who gave her the insect."
Chunyu nodded quickly: "Don't worry, county lord, I have already given instructions. There are people in each door, and our spy in the mansion also has our eyes, so there will never be any omissions!"
"It's done well." Gu Ning blinked at her, "If there is any situation, report to me immediately!"
"Yes!" Chunyu responded excitedly.
At this time, at the side door of Gu's mansion, Xiao Ruyan's carriage firmly blocked the exit.
Gu Zhiyuan's carriage when he returned home was blocked outside and could not enter at all. However, when he saw the Xiao family's emblem, he had to swallow his anger and ask the coachman to ask.
When Xiao Ruyan saw Gu Zhiyuan, his eyes lit up.
She pretended to bow to Gu Zhiyuan, very gentle: "Sir Gu, I'm here to find Qingqiu."
Gu Zhiyuan was very helpful and waved to the servant beside him: "Ma San, don't lead the way for Miss Xiao."
After successfully entering the Gu family, Xiao Ruyan couldn't control her anxious heart and walked in with great strides, ignoring Gu Zhiyuan behind her.
Xiao Ruyan's appearance made Gu Zhiyuan start
Get uneasy.
Could it be that something big of a big deal to look for Qingqiu in such a hurry?
Outside the yard where Gu Qingqiu was, several nannies were cleaning. When they saw Xiao Ruyan walking in with great momentum, their faces immediately changed.
As soon as Xiao Ruyan arrived, Gu Qingqiu received the news and ordered it early, so he must stop Xiao Ruyan outside the mansion, but why could Xiao Ruyan come in?
A nanny had already sneaked in to report the news, and the others looked at Xiao Ruyan, who was not kind to him, and each of them raised their spirits.
Only Ma San, who brought Xiao Ruyan to the scene, nodded and bowed, "Miss Xiao, this is my eldest lady's yard. If there is no other order, the young man will go and report to the master."
"Thank you for me, Lord Gu." Xiao Ruyan smiled softly.
As soon as Ma San left, the smile on her face immediately restrained. Regardless of the people around her, she stepped into the yard with great strides and headed straight for the room in the middle.
Just as she walked in, the door in the middle creaked, and a figure appeared in the crack of the door.
"You all retreat." Gu Qingqiu ordered the people around him. The maids were very afraid of Xiao Ruyan and hesitated for a moment and did not move. Gu Qingqiu's voice became a little cold, "Can't I shout you anymore?"
Banxia left first, she took away the maids, and only two were left in the yard.
No matter what movements were happening around, Xiao Ruyan's eyes were always locked on Gu Qingqiu, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "Gu Qingqiu, is there any worm in the bracelet you gave me back then?"
"What do you mean?" Gu Qingqiu frowned, "I naturally put the insect in the jade bracelet."
"But nothing happened today!" Xiao Ruyan walked step by step, with a ruthless look in her eyes, "Gu Qingqiu, you lied to me!"
Gu Qingqiu had known about this for a long time, and this was also the reason why she didn't want to see Xiao Ruyan.
Xiao Ruyan is stupid and stubborn, and will not listen to her explanation at all.z.br
The impatientness flashed in Gu Qingqiu's eyes was caught by Xiao Ruyan, which made her even more sure of her guess: "You plot against me! You gave me a bracelet without a worm!"
"This is impossible!" Gu Qingqiu immediately retorted, "You saw it at that time, and the insect was in the jade bracelet! Gu Ning did not have an attack today, it must be that you made a mistake in doing things!"
Gu Qingqiu's decisive words made Xiao Ruyan even more angry.
"You dare to argue!" Xiao Ruyan said angrily, "I did it according to your instructions. After the matter is done, you also said that the worm is no longer in the jade bracelet. Could it be that Gu Ning has the method of enlightenment to predict what I want to do in advance?"
Suddenly, Xiao Ruyan stopped.
At the moment when she was stunned, Gu Qingqiu also noticed something was wrong.
At this time, Xiao Ruyan's body tensed up unconsciously: "Where is the one who gave you a worm? I want to see her!"
Before Gu Qingqiu could answer, Xiao Ruyan grabbed her neck: "I want to see her! Today, Gu Ning also brought a jade bracelet, and she touched the side of my neck!"
In Xiao Ruyan's eyes, with desperate madness, Gu Qingqiu's heart sank.
"You mean Gu Ning took the worm away and fell on you again?" Gu Qingqiu said, then shook his head, "This is impossible! How could Gu Ning have such ability?"
"Don't worry if she has such ability!" Xiao Ruyan said angrily, "You hand over that person first! If I really get a ghost, you can wait to be broken off!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingqiu's gentle disguise disappeared at this moment.
Her eyes were extremely cruel, but Xiao Ruyan didn't care at all: "If that person can remove the Gu on my body, I can still do it without any blame. If I can't... My Xiao family will submit a memorial tomorrow and make your actions public!"
Seeing Gu Qingqiu being stunned and as if he was scared, Xiao Ruyan roared angrily: "Why don't you go find someone!"
"Okay." Gu Qingqiu lowered her head, and her long eyelashes covered the murderous aura in her eyes.
She walked to the door and whispered a few words in Banxia's ear, Banxia's face
The color left solemnly.
Outside a simple house on the outskirts of the city, Banxia lowered her head guiltily and knocked carefully outside the door.
Three long and two short, very rhythmic.
The person inside quickly opened the door. Shortly after Banxia entered, a petite figure followed behind him.
In the dark, Chunyu took all this in her eyes, looked at the house again, and remembered it deeply in her mind, and then said to the people around her: "I think of a way to stay near this house and pay attention to the people who come and go with this house."
Above the restaurant, Chunyu drew a petite girl on the paper.
When Gu Ning saw this, he almost sprayed out the tea he had just drunk.
"Is this the person Gu Qingqiu went to invite?"
Chunyu nodded, her expression was very complicated: "Just a little girl, I can't tell anything strange."
Gu Ning blinked and swallowed the guess that was about to his mouth.
The book says that the saint of southern Xinjiang uses the technique of Gu in a superb way. They can unknowingly lay Gu on people and raise many puppets. When Chu Yunyi was in trouble, she became interested in this man and wanted to train him into the next puppet.
She thought that such a saint in southern Xinjiang should be a beautiful woman, but the little girl suddenly appeared...
Gu Ning lowered his eyes, and from Chunyu's perspective, he could only see her slightly trembling eyelashes.
After a while of silence, Chunyu whispered: "County Lord, it's very strange in the southern Xinjiang. I heard that everyone in southern Xinjiang can use Gu. Maybe this little girl was found by the eldest lady from southern Xinjiang."
Gu Ning held his chin and asked in a low voice: "I heard that there are saints in southern Xinjiang. From what you see, does that little girl look like a saint in southern Xinjiang?"
Chunyu paused for a while, thought carefully, and lowered her head in embarrassment: "I don't know. I'm afraid that the news about southern Xinjiang will not be known until spies from all over the country return to Beijing to report."
Gu Ning didn't force it, but she already had a strong premonition in her heart.
The little girl's status in southern Xinjiang must be not simple. You must know that using Gu technology also requires talent. She can come to the capital alone at such a young age and make a Gu insect like Hongyan Gu, which shows her outstanding talent.
"Let's go!" Gu Ning turned around and went downstairs and smiled sly, "Let's go back home and take a look, and find out the details of this little girl!"
The little girl Gu Ning was muttering, sitting on the chair with an obedient look on her face, wrapping her chest with her hands. She was clearly a small person, but she looked at the two people in front of her proudly.
"Yun Die, can you tell what's wrong with her?" Gu Qingqiu suppressed the unhappiness in her heart and asked softly.
"She was caught in a gang." Yun Die nodded and said innocently, "I still hit the gang of beauty that I gave you before. Why? Is the gang you want on her? Is the one you want? "
Gu Qingqiu almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face. She was far away from Yundie without any trace and whispered softly: "No, it's just that she was plotted against. The Gu that should have been planted on someone else was planted on her by that person."
"Okay!" Yun Die clapped her hands excitedly, "Where is that person? I want to see her!"
Gu Qingqiu's words came to his mouth and swallowed them back.
She didn't expect that this little girl would be so difficult to communicate with, and every word was not as expected by her.
Xiao Ruyan, who was standing aside, had already exhausted her patience, and turned a cold face and pinched Yun Die's neck hard: "Why don't you take out the antidote! Otherwise I will kill you!"
"You dare to rape me!" A ruthless murderous aura suddenly appeared on Yun Die's face, which was not consistent with her age.
The next moment, Xiao Ruyan felt the pain spread from the nerves to various parts of her body. She stumbled and retreated. In a hurry, she saw her face in the bronze mirror.
"Ahhhh!"
Xiao Ruyan screamed and covered her face in pain, but when she touched the folds on it, she raised her hand in horror again.
Gu Qingqiu felt a thrill in his heart when he saw Xiao Ruyan's miserable situation.
She calmed down after a moment of panic
, gently coaxed Yundie: "Yundie, she is my good sister. Don't be as knowledgeable as her. If you remove the Gu for her, I will buy you all the things you want."
