Chapter 124 She Was Under House Arrest

A big change occurred in Beijing. Overnight, almost everyone knew about Gu Jiuqing's assassination of the Queen Mother.

What was even more frightening than this was that the Bai family father and son led troops to surround the emperor overnight.

Although no conflict occurred, the Bai family was deprived of military power.

There are divergent opinions in the capital, and people are in panic, as if something is going to change.

But at this time, Gu Jiuqing, who was locked up in a separate garden, knew nothing about it.

When she woke up, she found that she was under house arrest.

The huge mansion has all the facilities, so she can go wherever she wants, but as soon as she wants to leave, a few secret guards will appear from nowhere and drag her back again.

These people were like logs. No matter how much she tried to make insinuations, they would not reveal any information to her.

Even if she used hypnosis, these people would not respond at all.

Gu Jiuqing even tried to roll around, but it didn't work at all.

Various poisons have been used, but they are of no use to these people!

Gu Jiuqing spent three full days of such frustrating days!

This is the first time that she has tasted the feeling of living like a year. It is really unnatural!

Just when sores almost appeared on her mouth, finally, a familiar person appeared.

Mu Canling? How could it be him!

It would be a lie to say I wasn’t surprised!

Gu Jiuqing looked at him, stunned for a moment, and then immediately became alert.

"fraud!"

Seeing Gu Jiuqing's appearance as a sky eagle, Mu Canling couldn't help but laugh.

"What did I lie to you about?" He still smiled warmly, but unfortunately in Gu Jiuqing's eyes, he was just a smiling tiger.

Gu Jiuqing didn't want to talk to him, but said coldly: "I wonder what the King of Yue's purpose is in putting me under house arrest here? There should be nothing in me worthy of your plot!"

It was true that Mu Canngling was ill at the beginning, and it was also true that she had been treating him for so long.

The sad thing is that she always thought that he was a hostage sent from Xiliang and a soft persimmon to be manipulated.

Now it seems that this is clearly a wolf in sheep's clothing.

She really underestimated him!

While in trance, Mu Canling sighed helplessly: "I have no ill intentions in keeping you here! I just want to protect you and repay your life-saving grace!"

"That's not necessary." Gu Jiuqing said with a smile, "The life-saving grace was not small at first. If you hadn't done it intentionally, King Yue, this life-saving grace would not have fallen on me."

It's very possible that this guy used a trick.

"I know you won't trust me for a while, but it doesn't matter. When this disaster in the capital is over, I will naturally let you go." Mu Canling looked quite sincere.

"What calamity? What are you going to do?" Gu Jiuqing suddenly raised his mind.

She knew that Xiliang had no good intentions.

Thinking of Xiliang, he has not had much contact with the other three countries for many years. He is mysterious and does not interfere with others.

In the past few years, they suddenly launched an attack on Daliang, and later many generals suffered defeats at the hands of Xiliang.

But when it was the Bai family's turn to go to war, they were lucky enough to win.

This time Daliang was proud and proud, Xiliang even voluntarily sent the proton.

Now that I think about it, maybe they were all conspiring.

This is a plan to insert the chess piece into Daliang's heart!

As if he had read her thoughts, Mu Canling said with a helpless smile: "Don't worry, we are not as miserable as you think. Moreover, I didn't do anything! But didn't the princess learn from this incident?

Can you smell anything?"

What happened this time was naturally referring to her murdering the Queen Mother and being imprisoned in a prison.

Moreover, there are people who want to take the opportunity to kill her in the prison!

Thinking of this, Gu Jiuqing's expression became more solemn.

Mu Canling struck while the iron was hot and said: "The real mastermind should be the person behind the scenes against you.

You are not in Beijing recently, so naturally you don’t know the news in Beijing. However, I can tell you a little bit. I wonder what you want to hear?

What about the King of Jin, the Bai family, or the emperor and queen?"

"What happened to the Bai family? How is my uncle and cousin?" Gu Jiuqing didn't want to care about the lives of those insignificant people.

When Mu Canling heard this, he smiled lightly and said, "They are either good or not!"

Gu Jiuqing, "..."

There's no need to be pretentious, she doesn't want to listen to his nonsense.

But after all, this person was her only source of information, so she still said patiently: "Please explain it to me in detail."

"The good thing is that they are now at ease and will not be feared by the emperor for the time being." Mu Cangling said,

"It's not good. Naturally, their military power was taken back by the emperor. But as generals like them, they are more useful than the military power. Therefore, the emperor will not touch them for the time being."

"Why were they deprived of their military power?" Gu Jiuqing frowned, "Is it because of me?"

It stands to reason that on the surface, she is more likely to be involved in the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion, which is still far away from the Bai family.

It’s really not that bad!

Mu Canling immediately answered her doubts, "Because there was a fire in the prison, they led the troops in to save you.

They were lucky that they were not charged with rebellion on the spot!"

Hearing this, Gu Jiuqing's eyes moved slightly.

She knew that no matter what time, her uncle and cousin were her closest relatives and would never give up on her!

She was moved and moved, and she also understood the seriousness of this matter.

Now that their reputation is high, the emperor naturally does not dare to deal with them easily.

But I can't help the queen to settle accounts. The current emperor is not a generous person. I'm afraid he will find a way to deal with them in the future!

As if he saw her worries, Mu Canling sneered: "Don't worry! What you are worried about will not happen. Your Majesty, he doesn't have the energy recently."

"What's wrong with him?" Gu Jiuqing asked.

"I'm sick, I've contracted the epidemic, and I can't get up!" Mu Canling sneered, "Many people in Beijing have been infected with the epidemic recently. The plague that you tried so hard to stop finally dispersed!"

Gu Jiuqing said with a very ugly face. He had personally been exposed to such a disease and knew how terrifying it was.

With such a huge population base in Beijing and such a large flow of people, it would be a very scary thing for it to spread.

It was obviously almost under control back then!

"Don't worry, it's not that you don't work hard enough, it's that the people behind the scenes need this plague!" Mu Canling said sarcastically, "Since ancient times, there has been no change of political power without bloodshed and sacrifice. Just get used to it!"

The result of working hard for so long fell short all of a sudden. It would be a lie to say that I am not sad.

But now is not the time to be decadent, she must leave here.

In that most dangerous place, there are the relatives she cares about the most, and...

"I want to go back! Let me go!" Gu Jiuqing said seriously.

"Now that we have withdrawn from that whirlpool, why go back? Wouldn't it be nice to live a simple and happy life?" Mu Canling's eyes were a little cold.

"It won't be that time." Gu Jiuqing said seriously, "I promised him that I would give him no worries."

"He?" Mu Canling was slightly startled, then suddenly said clearly, "Cang Liyuan?"

Gu Jiuqing said nothing, Quan took it as acquiescence.

The plague had not yet been eliminated in Beijing, and important things happened on the border, so she had to stay.

Since you stayed, since you promised him, you can't break your promise.

As his thoughts flew, Gu Jiuqing's eyes fell on Mu Canling again.
