A large group of people immediately gathered at the entrance of Lingyin Pavilion, saying that they wanted Gusu Liang to come out and bear their losses.
Gusu Liang was shot by a bow and arrow when he entered the city. Although he was not unable to get out of bed, he felt panicked when he saw so many people gathered in front of the door of Lingyin Pavilion. If there were two households in one household, he would You could use money to solve the problem and put an end to the problem, but with so many people coming together, there is not enough manpower in Lingyin Pavilion, so there is no way to disperse them.
"What can we do?" The voices outside are noisy, saying that no one is organizing it, who will believe it? Gu Qiang had just come out of the secret room. King Cheng's injuries were very serious. It was already difficult to maintain his consciousness. Gu Huaian was still applying medicine to King Cheng underground. The situation was not as good as everyone thought.
"It won't work like this all the time. Shen Zhongbai should have already known that King Cheng is hiding here with us. Otherwise, these rumors in the city would not have spread so quickly."
Gusu Liang could see clearly that these small merchants usually made a lot of money relying on the name of Lingyin Pavilion. Before Lingyin Pavilion opened, the low prices here were not as high as they are now. They have no conscience and should not come to cause trouble at this time. There must be someone behind them inciting their emotions.
The storm is about to come and the wind is filling the building.
"What should we do now?" The people outside are ordinary people anyway. Even if they are incited to cause trouble, it is impossible for a few of them to really take action against this group of people outside.
"Find a way to stabilize them first. If they continue to make trouble at the door like this, it might be even more trouble." Gu Suliang felt that his movements were a bit too big just now, and the wounds on his body seemed to be involved. Later he found out I felt pain afterwards, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on my forehead.
"Are you okay?" Gu Huaian's sharp eyes quickly noticed the blood oozing out of Gu Su Liang's body. Although it was not a serious wound, Gu Su Liang's condition was even more important at this juncture. How many of them were there? All of them are considered outsiders of Lingyin Pavilion, and the only person who can truly speak on behalf of Lingyin Pavilion is Gusu Liang.
"It's okay, it's okay." But Gusu Liang is so emotional now, can he really go out and solve these things? Gu Huaian looked at Gu Qiang beside him. No matter what, Gu Qiang's current identity was the young master of Lingyin Pavilion. Gusu Liang was so excited now, it was best for Gu Qiang to come forward.
"Let's calm down first and discuss how to deal with these things." Gu Huaian was a little upset when he heard the noisy sounds outside. To be honest, these small businessmen and hawkers are easily incited. If it weren't for the people around Lingyin Pavilion, There is some mechanism, and they are afraid that they will break in directly.
"By the way, you don't know, right? Fortunately, you are not in the capital during this period, so this matter is none of your business. I don't know what happened to those friends of yours, but they were obsessed with taking in the traitor. The leader of the army! The entire Lingyin Pavilion has been sealed off now. Fortunately, we still have this relationship with Master Gu Huaian, so the emperor spared their lives."
After hearing this, Shen Qianshan became alert. Sure enough, he was right as he thought. Gu Huai'an and Gusu Liang were very likely to help King Cheng. After all, they were in such a situation. , it is impossible for them to watch their former friend being hunted down by Shen Zhongbai.
The fact that Gu Huai'an and the others would rescue Chawan was not unexpected for Shen Qianshan, but since King Cheng's body was already closed at the city gate, it meant that something must have happened to them. It's over.
A lot of things really happened during Shen Qianshan's absence.
After hearing what the guards said at the city gate, Shen Qianshan could not hold back his anger. If he had known it earlier, even if he went to Northern Xinjiang, he would not be able to persuade King Cheng to give up his bigger thoughts. He might as well stay Stay in the capital.
Lingyin Pavilion has become deserted now, but according to the guards, the place where the war took place has been almost cleaned up. Lingyin Pavilion has been sealed up because of hiding the matter of King Cheng. Gusu Lianghe If Gu Huaian also lives in the Nine Princes' Mansion, it seems that Shen Zhongbai is really determined to attack them.
"Qianqiu, we will go back to the palace right away. I'm afraid we still have a lot of things to deal with."
anyway? She was still carrying Xiao Xi behind her. Although King Cheng was dead, he had helped her with so many things before. Even though she couldn't bring his body back now, she should still take good care of her daughter.
From Shen Qianshan's point of view, both King Cheng and Princess Cheng were a little selfish. When they were alive, they clearly regarded their daughter as a treasure and treated her so well, but they were so decisive when they left Xiao Xi behind.
After all, Xiaoxi is still just a child. How can she bear the pain of losing her parents all at once
Even if he could give her the best conditions, there was no way he could make up for the fact that she had lost her parents forever. Besides, Xiaoxi was now at this age and not as completely oblivious as they imagined. Even if she Without seeing her mother die in front of her, would she be completely unwary of herself? Would she believe that the death of her parents had nothing to do with the person who took them away
Without much hesitation, Shen Qianshan took Shiyi and Qianqiu with him and hurried to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, because although the news they received was not complete, it was also very clear. Now in the Ninth Prince's Mansion, only Chu Tiankuo, Gu Huaian and Gusu Liang did not mention Gu Qiang. Shen Qianshan had a vague premonition in his heart, but he didn't know why. He always felt that there was something wrong. Something happened.
If Shen Zhongbai was really determined to take action against them, would it really be the end of just sealing up the Lingyin Pavilion? So many innocent people in northern Xinjiang are involved. If they really don't focus on the crime of harboring King Cheng and harboring crimes, will they just have Lingyin Pavilion closed down? Shen Qianshan didn't dare to think any more and quickened his pace.
If he was really right, wouldn't Gu Qiang be trapped in the palace now? Shen Qianshan has no place to stay now, so he can only return to the Nine Princes' Mansion. He doesn't know what the situation is in Lingyin Pavilion now. At most, he can only rely on his own guesses and hope that nothing major will happen.
When Shen Qianshan rushed to the Nine Princes' Mansion, he had already noticed that the area around the Nine Princes' Mansion was even more tightly guarded than usual. It seemed that Shen Zhongbai was more strict with the Nine Princes' Mansion than before. He asked Qianqiu to pack their things. , he walked into the Ninth Prince's Mansion alone, and saw Gu Huai'an, who was still covered in blood.
When Gu Huaian saw Shen Qianshan, he also smiled bitterly. He swayed slightly and was about to fall down.
When Shen Qianshan saw him like this, he quickly stepped forward to help him up, "What's wrong with you? Where is Qian'er?"
Gu Qiang had indeed entered the palace, and was indeed detained by Shen Zhongbai, but all this happened after they failed to stop Cheng Wang's behavior in time.
King Cheng would never let Shen Zhongbai go no matter what. In his eyes, this opportunity was too important for him. If he missed it, it would mean that he would not be able to replace him for a long time. To avenge his good brother, in everyone's eyes, he seemed to take Jiang Yu's death very lightly, but in fact, only a few people knew clearly what Jiang Yu's role was in King Cheng's heart. How important.
Qi Bai hasn't woken up yet, will Xiao Xi really believe in herself? Unlike Qi Bai, she has always been cold and cold with Xiao Xi. Even if she had a very good relationship with his father, it does not mean that she can completely trust him. This is the most difficult thing she has to face now. Gu If Qiang really enters the palace now, she will have to face even more problems. Even what should he do now to rescue Gu Qiang
After a while, Gu Huaian woke up. It could be seen from the injuries on his body that too many things had happened during this period.
"You are finally back."
While Gu Huaian was treating the wounds on his body, he told Shen Qianshan what happened during this period. It was probably after the commotion that day that they thought of a way to temporarily alleviate the situation, which was to use some of Gusu Liang's men and Gu Huaian's men. The store was temporarily reopened for them. Fortunately, several of them had the habit of leaving a way out for themselves, so those who made trouble at the entrance of Lingyin Pavilion dispersed for the time being.
However, this situation can only be alleviated for a while, and cannot remain like this forever. After all, even if Gusu Liang is the richest man in the capital, it does not mean that he can cope with one wave after another. King Cheng knows that he cannot stay in Lingyin Pavilion to recuperate for long. Yes, after all, if this continues, it is very likely that it will drag down several of them.
Gu Qiang felt that she had gone too far when she said that she would be the queen that day, but she was very sure that what she said was correct. She had no way to send people out to inquire about news about Bei Xin now, but she could almost imagine that Bei Xin The situation in Xinjiang will definitely not be much better than that in Beijing.
But Gu Qiang was still kind-hearted after all. She was afraid that what she said that day would hurt King Cheng, but she never thought that King Cheng was already injured like this and still had the ability to escape from the secret room alone... Gu Qiang Huai'an discovered that when King Cheng disappeared, it was already the early morning of the next day. King Cheng was seriously injured. The slightest movement would leave blood stains on the ground, which was still a bit oozing.
