Volume 1: Swan Goose Chapter 434: People’s hearts are unsmelling, dreams are frightening (2)
——Coercion——
Hu Qi sat over with a smile, put the back of his hand on her smooth forehead, and sighed softly: "Fortunately, I don't have a fever. However, you have to keep warm tonight. If you get sick at this time, it will not be easy to recover."
Lu Ning gently held his hand and sighed softly: "Xiao Qi, thank you for saving me again. Without you, I would not have survived this time."
"I said before, there is no need to say thank you between you and me." Hu Qi looked at her and deliberately showed a hearty smile.
Lu Ning lowered his eyes, leaned on his shoulder silently, and couldn't help but sigh.
The aftermath of the disaster made her feel that everything before her eyes was a little unreal. But the violent heartbeat and the pain from her ankle reminded her that this was not a dream!
"Little deer! The porridge is here!" Toto's voice came in before he even entered the door.
Lu Ning hurriedly left Hu Qi's shoulder and smiled at Totuo who pushed in the door: "Great, I happen to be hungry."
Seeing Lu Ning's face flushed and her voice a little hoarse, Toto stared at her and asked anxiously: "Xiaolu, how are you? Are you sick?"
Lu Ning forced a smile and shook his head: "I'm just tired and hungry."
"Then eat some quickly! These are the only vegetarian porridges in the temple!" Toto handed over the porridge bowl in his hand.
Lu Ning looked at Hu Qi with the bowl and asked, "Xiao Qi, do you want some?"
Hu Qi shook his head and declined, "I'll eat later. If you're hungry, just eat first!"
Lu Ning smiled slightly and stopped refusing: "Then I won't be polite!"
The porridge that was usually bland felt heart-warming and delicious at this time. Lu Ning was so hungry that he drank the porridge in the bowl in one go.
Toto also drank up all the porridge in the pot in three gulps and wiped his mouth with unsatisfied thoughts.
The three of them talked for a while, and suddenly they fell asleep. As they talked, Lu Ning fell asleep on the bed.
The sky is dark, the sky is low, everything in the temple is quiet, and snoring can be heard everywhere.
People who experienced the great escape seemed to quickly fall into a dream and sleep deeper than before.
A figure quickly crossed the courtyard, quietly walked to the door of the temple, looked around, and then opened the door.
Immediately, one black shadow after another entered the courtyard with lightning speed, and rushed into the side room where the officers and soldiers were sleeping.
The entire operation was quiet and orderly, as if everything had been arranged in advance...
----------------------------------------
The wind blew heavy rain, crackling on the window lattice. The strong wind roared, ran in through the gaps in the house, and lifted up the pages of the books on the table.
Yu Fengjin put down her book, stood up and went to close the window.
But outside the window, I saw dense clouds, continuous heavy rain like a curtain, and the wind and rain threads weaved pieces of curtain in the sky.
He frowned, feeling vaguely uneasy. In such weather, there must be a lot of wind and waves on the river, and he didn't know if Lu Ning and the others were safe and sound.
But no news had been sent back to the mission, so he could only regard no news as the best news.
But he was really worried and couldn't write a word with his pen, so he had to take an umbrella and go out.
When I walked to Gu Jiyun's room, I found that the door was locked and he didn't seem to be in the room.
After a slight hesitation, Yu Fengjin walked towards Jin Jiawei's room.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard rustling sounds inside. Yu Fengjin took a private look, then leaned close to the door and held her breath to listen.
Gu Jiyun's voice can be vaguely heard: "Give them these antidotes and they will wake up soon!"
Then, a man's voice sounded: "Hey! It's a pity that those brothers who were kidnapped by the Chishui Sect were buried here in that way!"
"Hmph! If you want to achieve great things, you have to make sacrifices! However, those dead brothers still need to be taken care of!" Gu Jiyun's voice was cold and vicious.
"Yes! Don't worry, this matter will be handled well by my subordinates!" The man was very respectful and sounded like Gu Jiyun's confidant.
Yu Fengjin saw a crack in the door, so she put her eyes over it and looked inside carefully.
Gu Jiyun took out a letter from his arms, handed it to the man beside him, and whispered: "Go back to Beijing quickly and give this secret letter to my father! Tell him that everything is going well here, and let him
He doesn’t need to worry, just follow the plan!”
The man carefully collected the letter and said, "Yes, I will set off now. Please don't worry!"
When Yu Fengjin saw the man coming this way, she immediately hid behind the pillar.
After a while, the door opened, and a golden-armored guard left in a hurry. Not long after, Gu Jiyun also left.
When no other strange noises were heard around him, Yu Fengjin walked out from behind the pillar. At this time, he already had a guess in his mind:
It seems that Gu Jiyun followed here, and there is indeed a conspiracy!
Presumably, he seemed to have had a hand in what happened along the way. But it is still unknown whether this was the idea of the Gu family and his son or Wang Su's idea.
I don’t even know who they are targeting with this action?!
But at this time, he was more worried about Lu Ning's safety, so he walked towards the government office without thinking too much about it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door of the government office lobby, he saw Gu Jiyun again.
Gu Jiyun was also surprised when he saw him, and asked solemnly: "Is something wrong?"
Yu Fengjin made some calculations in her mind, then stepped forward and said, "Commander Gu, it's very windy and rainy today, and I'm afraid the river won't be calm either. Is there any news from the mission?"
Gu Jiyun only said "hmm", then turned around and sat down, picked up the tea cup and drank tea, and made no other movements.
It seemed that he was going to sit back and watch, not wanting to pay attention to Yu Fengjin.
Yu Fengjin could only endure it temporarily and continued: "Master Gu, with such strong winds and waves, the mission will most likely encounter a storm. If someone can be sent to help earlier, they will have more hope of survival!"
Gu Jiyun raised his eyelids, glanced at him lightly, snorted, and had a very cold attitude.
Yu Fengjin finally lowered her face and spoke no longer politely: "Commander Gu! There are not only your relatives on this ship, but also the current chief minister! If something happens, aren't you afraid of the emperor's punishment? You are
This time, as the leader of the protection mission, something happened to the person he was protecting, but you are safe and sound. You must not be able to escape responsibility!"
Gu Jiyun frowned and looked at him displeased, feeling unhappy in his heart.
After a long time, he smiled coldly, stood up, cursed: "Mind your own business!" and turned around to leave.
Yu Fengjin stood there with a sinking face, cursing in her heart: It turns out that Gu Jiyun's target this time is Xia Yunqing!
But at the moment, he still can't see the true purpose of the Gu family and his son, so he doesn't plan to reveal his identity right now. He decides to observe secretly first and then wait for an opportunity to act!
However, given the current situation, he must get these people to take action to check on Lu Ning and the others!
"Stop!" Thinking of this, Yu Fengjin suddenly shouted loudly, which was quite intimidating.
Perhaps he didn't expect that a small commoner would dare to yell at him.
Gu Jiyun was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned around and looked at him with extremely angry eyes: "You kid are tired of living?!"
Yu Fengjin calmly took out her badge, showed it in front of him, and asked in a deep voice: "General Gu, do you recognize this?"
Gu Jiyun narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately widened his eyes: "Prince Yi's belt?"
"That's right. Before departure, King Yi specially gave this to me and asked me to show this badge at the critical moment. No one dares to disobey!" Yu Fengjin looked at Gu Jiyun's sickly face and spoke calmly.
And calm.
"Who are you? Why did King Yi give you his belt?" Gu Jiyun narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the man in front of him again, his tone was a little unhappy.
"His Royal Highness, King Yi, is inconvenient to leave the capital, but he is worried about Miss Lu, so he arranged for Mu Qianqian and I to escort him and gave him a waist badge in case of emergency." Yu Fengjin said coldly.
He stared at him for a long time before looking away.
"How come I don't know about this?" Gu Jiyun touched his chin and asked thoughtfully.
"Then you have to ask yourself! Why would His Highness King Yi rather trust an outsider than trust you? But now it seems that King Yi's worries are right!" Yu Fengjin smiled coldly and replied in a sharp tone.
road.
"Then what are you going to do now with this badge to show off your power?" Gu Jiyun's eyes widened and his cheeks twitched slightly.
Yu Fengjin paused deliberately in a serious manner, and then waved his waist badge in front of him: "Of course I want to make sure Miss Lu is safe!"
Gu Jiyun glanced coldly and asked in a provocative tone: "The sky is high here and the emperor is far away. If I refuse to obey your order, what can you do to me?"
Yu Fengjin seemed to have expected that he would say this, so she smiled calmly: "His Royal Highness King Yi asked me to tell you something - the sky is high and the roads are far away, so of course he can't control it, but your father is here
Whatever His Highness Prince Yi of Shengjing wants to do is very easy, so you should carefully consider it before making a plan!"
Gu Jiyun said nothing, his whole face was twisted unpleasantly, looking both angry and embarrassed.
After pondering for a long time, he shouted out the door: "Here comes someone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several golden-armored guards ran in and bowed to him.
Gu Jiyun glared at Yu Fengjin and ordered to Jin Jiawei: "Send all the people to inquire about the situation of the mission. If you cannot inquire about their situation, no one is allowed to come back!"
"Yes!" Several golden-armored guards turned around and ran out.
"How is it? Mr. Liu, are you satisfied?" Gu Jiyun stared at him and asked calmly.
"If Miss Lu is fine, we can communicate with each other, and everything will be fine! If something really happens, you must also know the serious consequences!" Yu Fengjin smiled slightly, but there was a warning in his sharp eyes.
Seeing that he was so arrogant, Gu Jiyun did not dare to disobey even though he was angry. He could only say with anger: "Then let's hope that Lu Ning is safe!"
After saying that, he snorted and slammed the door.
Seeing that Gu Jiyun was fooled by him, Yu Fengjin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. However, he could not feel at ease until he got the news that Lu Ning was safe.
