Naturally, there will be someone from the eldest princess to pass on the news, and Gu Yuqi has been living in seclusion, probably not knowing the news, so Jiaxi rushed over immediately, but she didn't expect that Gu Yuqi's side was unusually calm. Not only did Gu Yuqi look ready, but even the maids around her all had a calm expression, which made Jiaxi feel admiration secretly even though she was shocked.
After Gu Yuqi and Jiaxi met, they walked towards the eldest princess' room.
At the gate of the courtyard, I met King Fu and Gu Siyu who came after hearing the news.
King Fu was still dressed in a blue robe, with a light veil covering his face, and he was in a hurry to leave. His breathing was uneven and he couldn't help coughing, but he tried his best to bear it.
The capital was attacked, and three of the four gates were resisting. One gate had been forced to open, and a large number of bandits poured into the capital. People are killed when they see people, and houses are burned when they see them. Today's capital city is in chaos.
Gu Siyu also had a flustered expression on his face, and even his steps were a little unsteady. He almost tripped over his long skirt a few times.
As soon as the three groups met outside Furongju, Fu Wang couldn't help but take a deep look at Gu Yuqi and Jiaxi, and silently praised him from the bottom of his heart. Under the influence of Gu Yuqi, Jiaxi has completely put down her previous panic. Become calm, Gu Yuqi is as calm as water, without waves, compared with the calmness of the two of them, and Gu Siyu, who is walking staggeringly, seems a bit weak.
One is worthy of being the queen of the general, the daughter of the Hou family. There is another one who is also worthy of the demeanor of the clan's daughter, but this concubine of the Hou's mansion seems a bit out of place.
King Fu was looking at Gu Yuqi, but Gu Yuqi's gaze passed King Fu and landed on a guard following him.
Although he has tried his best to restrain his aura, Gu Yuqi still recognized him at a glance, Du Xia!
It turned out that Yun Ke valued King Fu so much that he even sent Du Xia to protect him. When did he come
Gu Yuqi's eyes lit up, then dimmed.
She looked away, pretending she didn't see anything.
Since I can't give him anything. It is better not to meet each other.
Du Xia obviously saw her too, but his eyes, like Gu Yuqi's, only stayed on each other for a moment, and then moved away.
Gu Yuqi smiled self-deprecatingly from the bottom of her heart, it's so good, isn't that what she wanted? To Du Xia, she is just a passer-by, and she can no longer continue to influence and participate in his life, because he is rising like the rising sun and has a bright future, but she is already decaying like the setting sun.
Gu Yuqi's expression was completely caught by Gu Siyu's eyes. She wanted to prevent Gu Yuqi from looking more at King Fu, but she didn't expect that instead of looking at King Fu, Gu Yuqi would look more at a guard behind him. Could it be that the eldest sister has an old relationship with this guard
Liu Yue's words finally had an effect, Gu Siyu's mind towards Gu Yuqi has completely changed now.
The more she got along with Fu Wang, the more she felt that Fu Wang was kind, gentle, and funny and gentle. Although she couldn't see his face, she could see Fu Wang's eyes. People with those eyes shouldn't be ugly. Looking at his other brothers, which one is not handsome and outstanding.
After only a few days of getting along, Gu Siyu's heart was completely lost on King Fu.
So she was very afraid that Gu Yuqi would take away everything that belonged to her, after all Gu Yuqi was so strong.
Mother was right, she really wanted to grow up and couldn't stay any longer.
Thinking of this, she leaned in the direction of King Fu.
Yun Ling noticed that Gu Siyu approached her intentionally, and didn't care. After all, they were already married, so he simply raised his hand and held her sleeve generously, "Be careful, walk through the threshold." He reminded aloud.
Yunling's actions instantly stained Gu Siyu's face with a faint scarlet color, and even his heartbeat accelerated several beats, and he almost didn't jump out of his mouth.
They met almost every day in the mansion, and they would chat for a long time, but he had never touched her proactively, and now he just held her sleeve, and she already felt as happy as if she was going to fly to the sky.
As soon as she was distracted, her foot was really tripped by the threshold. Fortunately, Yunling held her back, so she didn't make a fool of herself on the spot.
Realizing that Yunling held her hand in desperation, Gu Siyu blushed even more with embarrassment, she didn't even dare to lift her head, and pink bubbles kept popping up in her heart.
Yun Ling originally wanted to let her go, but seeing her dumbfounded look, he was afraid that she would accidentally fall down on him again, so he simply and generously led her along. After all, they are already an unmarried couple, and now is an extraordinary moment, there is nothing to avoid.
After entering the Furong Residence, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess was already sitting on the grand teacher's chair, holding tea. Although she looked calm and composed, Gu Yuqi observed that her hands were half covered under her sleeves and trembling slightly.
Seeing these people coming in, Princess Pinghu forced a smile, "You are all here. It's fine as long as you come, it's a mess outside. One of the four gates has been broken. There are many bandits and bandits on the street now. Come here, my lord." Don't worry."
"Yes, aunt, we already know the general situation." King Fu said with his hands clasped.
Princess Pinghu nodded, and her eyes fell on Gu Yuqi. Seeing her attire and the spear in her hand, she couldn't help being slightly startled, "What are you going to do?"
"It is to protect the princess." Gu Yuqi said lightly. Yun Ke requested it. It's just that she didn't say it. "Is there any safe place to hide in the Princess Mansion?" Gu Yuqi asked.
"Do we want to hide too?" Princess Pinghu asked with a frown. "There are so many guards in the Princess Mansion, I don't believe it. Those thieves are so powerful that they can break into the Princess Mansion and commit murder? Besides, there are also guards from the capital." Princess Pinghu said pretending to be calm.
"One of the four gates was broken." Gu Yuqi replied flatly, "This gang of thieves will not be a mob. Although there are many guards in the Princess Mansion, the area is too large to guard. "
Gu Yuqi's words surprised everyone present, and then they all looked at each other in blank dismay. Yes, the guards in the capital have always been tight. If a city is broken, it proves that the bandits are menacing. Although there are many guards in the Princess Mansion, they can't stand the Princess Mansion. The place is big. A large place means scattered troops. Once scattered, how can the enemy beat those thieves.
Gu Yuqi got to the point with one sentence, which made Princess Pinghu, who had always felt that she was quite calm, feel a little cold in her hands and feet.
"Then what should we do?" Jiaxi was the first to react and asked Gu Yuqi directly.
"If there is no place to hide, we will all retreat to Linglong Building." Gu Yuqi said quickly, she cupped her hands at the eldest princess, "It is still too late to shrink the front line and deploy defenses around Linglong Building."
Princess Pinghu immediately lost her mind when Gu Yuqi said this. She could only look at Gu Yuqi, and then looked at King Fu blankly.
Here is a man named Fu Wang, if the words come from his mouth, they must have weight, but from Gu Yuqi's mouth, Princess Pinghu doesn't know whether to listen or not.
Although Gu Yuqi has been reclusive these days, her maids are not idle. Bai Fu is good at light work, and has already visited the princess mansion at night. Low array skills.
If Bai Fu can come and go freely in the Princess Mansion, Gu Yuqi can say that the guards in the Princess Mansion are not as strong as Yun Ke and Princess Pinghu think. After all, the days of peace have been lived for a long time. Even after the plague, no one will come to harass Princess Pinghu. The guards of the Princess Mansion were also a little bit unconcerned.
Gu Yuqi would not put her life on these careless guards.
The Linglong Building is the place where the Princess Mansion keeps treasures. It can be said to be a large warehouse. The building is seven feet high and has five floors. It is the tallest building in the entire Princess Mansion. The Linglong Building has a good view. There are high walls around the Linglong Building , and there is also a heavy door made of black iron, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you really want to shrink the battle front, withdrawing everyone to Linglong Building is the best choice.
They only thought that Gu Yuqi slept with the door closed every day, but they didn't know that she had been observing secretly.
Gu Yuqi explained to everyone the reasons why she wanted to go to Linglong Building, and Yun Ling nodded, "Aunt Huang, just follow the method of taking care of the eldest lady of the family. Withdraw all the guards and shrink them all to Linglong Building Arm."
"Okay." With Yunling's affirmation, Princess Pinghu slapped the table, "Just do as you say." After she finished speaking, she asked the maids and guards next to her to deliver the order. And he got up and led to Linglong Building surrounded by a crowd.
"Don't take money." Gu Yuqi reminded, "It's true to bring some food and water in."
This chaos is not something that can be resolved in a day and a half. It will take several days. Money is outside the body, and disaster is imminent. Only food and water are life-saving.
The people in the Princess Mansion are not just a star and a half, they are all in the Linglong Building, I am afraid that water and everything will be a big problem.
"That's right." Yunling nodded and said, "Come here, take all the food you can find to Linglong Building. Hurry up."
"Yes," the servant next to him bowed.
"What else should I prepare?" Princess Pinghu asked Gu Yuqi as she walked. Now Gu Yuqi has become the core of everyone.
"Bows and arrows, you can bring in as many as you can." Gu Yuqi said. "It would be even better if we could bring some kerosene in."
"Okay." Princess Pinghu nodded and asked the people around her to prepare.
Here, Princess Pinghu and her party brought some guards into Linglong Building, and saw a guard covered in blood running over desperately, "Back... If you go back to the eldest princess, the eldest princess's mansion has been broken, and there are thieves and bandits rushing over." enter."
After he finished speaking, he suddenly fell to the ground, with a bright and trembling feather arrow sticking out of his back.
"Close the door!" Gu Yuqi roared, "Quick, quick!"
