Seeing Cui's insistence, Gu Lian'er walked out and said, "I don't want to continue to have trouble with you. If dad drives us out of the general's mansion, we will have nothing."
She resented Gu Qingying, but she didn't want to continue the trouble. Without the support of the General's Mansion, her life would really be over.
Ms. Cui took Gu Lian'er's arm and said, "Why are you so stubborn, girl? Can't you listen to me? Let's try again. After Gu Qingying leaves, you can complain to your father properly. Even if nothing can be changed,
You also have to ask your father to give you a lot of dowry."
Now Gu Lian'er's heart was moved.
yes!
Even if the marriage cannot be changed, the dowry will still have to be obtained.
"Then just listen to mother. As soon as that bitch Gu Qingying leaves, we will go and talk more in front of dad."
Ms. Cui breathed a sigh of relief. How could she just give up?
So what if they got engaged! The Zhao family's marriage was canceled before, and she still didn't believe that the Xu family's marriage couldn't be canceled.
Besides, a seventh-grade official would not dare to say anything even if they broke off the engagement.
Everything will be easy as long as Gu Lian'er is stabilized now.
In the evening, Gu Qingying specially accompanied General Gu and Gu Xiao to have dinner.
Gu Xiao and General Gu both looked particularly relaxed today.
Gu Qingying asked tentatively: "Are you going to see the emperor today?"
She asked because she saw that the two of them seemed to be in a good mood today, unlike last night.
General Gu smiled and nodded, took a piece of meat to Gu Qingying and said, "You need to eat more to make up for it, you are still too thin."
Lu Qingying ate the meat obediently. Strangely enough, as long as she couldn't eat anything particularly fishy, she had no reaction to anything else.
Seeing Gu Qingying eating, General Gu smiled and took two more pieces of meat before saying: "Your brother and I went to the emperor today and told him about the generals being squeezed out. After hearing this, the emperor was furious and summoned the generals to inquire about the situation. I guess
Some officials in the DPRK are going to be punished. If the generals are in a good mood, I will be in a good mood too."
It makes my heart happy to see my brothers being treated well.
Gu Xiao said: "What is my sister doing at home today?"
Naturally, Gu Qingying wouldn't talk about going to Jucai Lane, and then she briefly explained: "My cousin said he arranged for me to have a servant who knows kung fu. I plan to leave tomorrow. It will take more than a month to walk to Lizhou City.
, I will slowly show my pregnancy by the time I get to Lizhou City, and it is not good to delay it any longer."
You will always meet Li Cangjue in the imperial city, just like today, you were obviously just with Li Jingyi, but you still met Li Cangjue.
She really didn't want to deal with Li Cangjue.
Gu Xiao said: "You really can't delay. I have also arranged guards for you. These guards are carefully selected by me and will definitely protect you."
General Gu also said seriously: "I know you know Kung Fu, but I don't know when you, girl, learned it. I heard that your Kung Fu is quite good."
Gu Qingying felt guilty for a while, and said perfunctorily: "I practiced it in a fool's errand. Didn't my father say when I was a child that women should not be allowed to be men? He also said that women can also go into battle to kill enemies. After my mother passed away, I practiced more diligently. Besides, the tiger father has no dogs.
Female!"
She is now very happy that Mrs. Cui sent away all the maids who took care of the original owner.
Otherwise, the secret will really be revealed.
General Gu was in a good mood. He laughed and said, "You girl is good at talking. You make me happy every time. It makes sense for a tiger father to have a dog daughter. Your brother and I knew you were good at kung fu, so we made a little gift for you.
."
Gu Xiao stood up with a smile, walked to the shelf, took down a wooden box, and put it on the table: "Dad and I decided to make these things for you after discussing them for a long time. Open it and see if you like it."
After saying that, he pushed the treasure in front of Gu Qingying.
Gu Qingying raised her head and glanced at Gu Xiao doubtfully, then opened the box, only to see a row of concealed weapons neatly arranged inside the box.
"This is a hidden weapon!" She looked at the two of them in surprise.
I really didn't expect that the two of them would give her a hidden weapon.
The hidden weapons are in the shape of darts, nine in total.
General Gu smiled and explained: "I heard from the Prime Minister that you performed in the Prime Minister's Mansion and were proficient in all eighteen martial arts. Dad knew that you must have other preparations, so he didn't prepare those knives and swords for you, and your brother
We prepared concealed weapons for you as soon as we discussed it. I believe you will know how to use concealed weapons. I even taught you how to use concealed weapons when you were a child."
Lu Qingying liked darts very much, and she really never thought about making some hidden weapons to carry with her.
It must be said that General Gu's gift made up for her shortcomings.
With the hidden weapon in hand, there really is nothing to be afraid of.
"Thank you, dad and brother. I like hidden weapons very much."
After saying that, he held the concealed weapon between his two fingers and shot it out.
I saw the dart cut off the candle and nailed it to the wooden stake.
Gu Qingying stepped forward and pulled out the darts. She liked it very much. She put away all nine darts and said with a smile: "The darts are very easy to use."
Gu Xiao saw that Gu Qingying was happy, and he was also happy: "You can use these nine darts sparingly. I asked the master to make them. It will be difficult to replace them if they are lost."
Gu Qingying rolled her eyes at Gu Xiao: "There is no reason to take back the darts used to kill people. Don't worry, I won't use darts unless it is absolutely necessary. Brother, please worry."
This gift was sent to her heart.
General Gu's expression became much more serious: "Do you know why your cousin and we arranged for guards to protect you?"
Gu Qingying thought for a moment and said, "Isn't it because Lizhou is a long way away and there are many dangers?"
General Gu shook his head: "This is not all the reasons. There are many horse bandits for one reason. There is another reason that you can probably guess. You were assassinated by Huayulou's killer before. We are worried that Huayulou has not completed the task. Continue
Someone takes over the mission."
He already knew that the killer of Huayulou was hired by Mr. Cui.
The previous assassination failed, but the mission of Huayulou is still pending, after all, the silver reward has not been taken away yet.
What if someone else takes over the task?
Always be alert when you have a guard.
Gu Qingying had really forgotten this incident and said: "The Huayulou assassination failed. Is there anyone who dares to take over the mission?"
She showed no mercy last time and killed the killers directly.
I thought this matter was over, but it turned out not to be.
The three of them finished their meal and sat aside.
General Gu said: "The mission of Huayulou cannot be removed. As long as the mission is not completed and remains hanging, someone will take it. The mission will not be removed until someone completes the mission. I failed to assassinate you before, but the mission remains the same."
Hanging in Huayulou, your cousin knows about this, so he arranged for servants to protect you."
Gu Xiao said: "Yun Zheng is very attentive to you. The people he arranged are nominally servants, but in fact they are not ordinary servants. They are all thugs he hired at a high price, and their skills are quite good."
