Qin Gentiana hid in the dark and listened furiously in his heart. This trash can be found everywhere. Seeing the tall woman in plain clothes running closer and closer to them, Qin Gentiana patted Long Ya's buttocks and whispered, "Go!"
Long Ya let out a low growl, and rushed towards those men.
"Ah! There are tigers, tigers!"
When the drunken gangsters saw the tiger appearing all of a sudden, they woke up a lot from the wine. At this time, of course, life is important. How could they want to get a woman, and they ran for their lives like crazy.
Long Ya flicked his little tail triumphantly, and walked back to the house step by step.
The woman in plain clothes thought she was safe when she saw a white shadow chasing those gangsters away, but when she saw the huge white tiger stepping towards her, she backed up a few steps in astonishment, and when she was about to cry out in panic, she was thrown to the ground by a soft body, and her mouth was tightly covered by a soft and delicate hand.
"Hush, stop barking, it will attract the patrolling people."
A faint fragrance lingered in the nose, Gu Yan's tense emotions relaxed, and his whole body softened slowly.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Qin Gentian let go of her hand, sat down on the ground, and opened his arms towards the slowly approaching Baihu, "Longya stick is stunned!"
Long Ya couldn't understand what she said, but he could understand that she was in a happy mood, so he also became happy, ran over in small steps, and smeared her face disobediently with his big tongue.
Qin Gentian pushed it away with a smile, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the plain-clothed woman secretly looking at the white tiger, a little envious, she couldn't help smiling, and reached out to grab her wrist, "Longya is very good, do you want to touch it?"
She grabbed Gu Yan's hand and stuck it on Baihu's head.
Although Longya was a little displeased by strangers touching him, but with Gentiana Qin present, he didn't lose his temper and lowered his head obediently.
Gu Yan felt the white tiger's hard hair in the palm of her hand, and the back of her hand was pressed by that delicate little hand. Her heart softened, and a smile slowly appeared on her cold face, just like the first bloom of epiphyllum in the middle of the night, the beauty is astonishing.
Qin Gentiana stared blankly for a moment, then blushed slightly, "It's so late, it's not safe for my sister to be out alone."
"It's been fine in the past, maybe it's because of bad luck today." Gu Yan lowered his head, looked deeply at the reddened ears of the veiled woman beside him, the corners of his lips curled slightly, and was quickly smoothed by her. She supported Qin Gentiana to stand up.
Only then did Qin Gentian realize that this girl was really tall, a full head taller than himself.
She was in a trance, a little surprised.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of some scars on her exposed arms. She had also been whipped, and she saw that they were whip marks. She wanted to ask, but seeing that the girl quickly rolled down the sleeves on her hands and avoided her sight, she obviously didn't want her to see them.
Qin Gentian was silent for a while, pretending not to see it, and asked her with a smile, "Is there anyone here to pick me up? Do you want me and Longya to give you a ride?"
"My family calls me Ah Yan." Gu Yan turned to look at her, her softened face made her look less cold, "There are people, they just left for a while, and they will come back to pick me up soon."
"One should be kept by Ah Yan's side." Qin Geng felt wronged for her, and she wanted to tell Ah Yan her name, but she was afraid of causing trouble to the palace, so she hesitated, and she said her nickname in this world, "My family calls me Xiaojiu, so Long Ya and I will accompany Ah Yan until someone comes over before leaving."
Gu Yan nodded.
The two of them sat chatting in front of this deserted house together.
After a while, several people came on fast horses, "Long..."
They caught a glimpse of the white tiger and the mysterious woman wearing a veil, and were about to draw their swords. Seeing Gu Yan's eyes, they quickly stopped their movements, and quickly changed their words, "Miss, it's great that you have no facts."
Qin Gentiana immediately stood up and said goodbye, "Ah Yan, Long Ya and I will go back first."
Gu Yan took off the grass clippings on her head, smiled, "Yeah."
She watched Gentiana Qin turned over and sat on the white tiger. The white tiger leaped a few times, and the person and the tiger disappeared. The smile on her face gradually faded, and her eyes were deep. "Follow and see, which woman is that?"
One person took the lead and hurriedly followed.
Only then did the rest of the people kneel down, "Eldest Princess, this subordinate has neglected his duty and lost his footing."
After Gu Yan came out from Kaiyuan Temple, he came directly to attend King Kang's wedding. She hadn't returned to the palace to see Concubine Shu. She planned to hurry back to the palace to meet Concubine Mu, but who knew that there was an assassin attacking on the way, and all the guards around her were distracted.
She thought that the people behind the scenes wanted her life, but who knew that they were so ruthless, not only wanting her life, but also her innocence.
If Bai Hu and Xiao Jiu hadn't appeared, she, the eldest princess, would have died.
The nails were firmly pinched into the palm of the hand, and Gu Yan's eyes were filled with coldness.
She stepped into the carriage and kept thinking about whether all of today's events were a coincidence or the result of someone with a heart.
Concubine Shu has been in poor health since she gave birth. In the past, she had already rested at this hour, but she still hasn't rested today for some reason. Her personal maid, Jinxiu, was standing at the gate of the palace waiting for her. When she saw Gu Yan coming back, she greeted her with a smile.
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, and an uncontrollable smile appeared in his eyes, "Has the concubine mother been waiting for me?"
Every time in the past, she took the initiative to approach Concubine Shu, wanting Concubine Mother to hurt her, but Concubine Mother always backed away with a cold face, and scolded herself for not looking like a Royal Princess. It was the first time that she waited for her until midnight like tonight.
With a smile on her cold face, she followed Jinxiu into Concubine Shu's Yuyang Palace.
"Mother and concubine." Gu Yan entered the hall with light steps, and saw Concubine Shu who was looking sleepy in the main seat, and quickly stepped forward, "Why don't you rest earlier?"
"I haven't seen you for a year." Concubine Shu's expression was indifferent, she avoided her outstretched hand without a trace, and stood up, "Did you just come back from King Kang?"
Gu Yan responded lightly, "Tonight is the day of the third brother's great joy, and my son came back from the temple to give a congratulatory gift."
"You're right." Concubine Shu finally had a smile on her face, "Liu Xiang's concubine is still a bit close to matching King Kang."
"You are at the scene, are there many courtiers who went to congratulate today?"
Gu Yan lowered his eyes, the smile on his face faded, and his agitated heart slowly cooled down.
It's not that she is sensitive, the mother and concubine waited for her until now, but all she wanted to ask was King Kang. She didn't understand, what should be concerned about the marriage of the eldest son of the empress? Was she worried that King Kang would inherit the throne and worry about their future
"For the marriage of the eldest son of the empress, there are naturally many courtiers." Gu Yan replied in a low voice. Seeing Concubine Shu looking at her eagerly, she wanted to say more, but Concubine Shu's face was already tired, and she couldn't bear it.
Concubine Shu's face darkened, and the thin armor tightly grabbed her arm and twisted it, "Just say what you want, what are you doing to prevaricate Bengong?"
