Back in time half an hour ago, Qin Lin and Ning Jiuwei took Long Yurong and Mrs. Gu out of Ziyuan Palace, and He Lanxuan was outside to support them.
Soon they arrived at Zhuque Street, but unexpectedly they were stopped by a group of men in black on the way. Qin Lin could tell at a glance that the men in black were secret guards raised by the emperor.
Qin Lin quickly figured out that the emperor wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of him and He Lanxue and others. Those men in black were not only numerous in number, but also fierce in their moves.
He Lanxuan only had one arm, so his martial arts was greatly affected. Coupled with Mrs. Gu and Long Yurong, it was very difficult.
Ning Jiuwei and Qin Lin were protecting two people while facing off against the enemy. When they saw that the people chasing behind them were all Di Qingchen's, they were suddenly in a dilemma.
This time the emperor must also know that if he fails to succeed, he will have no chance to take action again, so those dead soldiers are almost mobilized.
Soon, Qin Lin and Ning Jiuwei's bodies were covered with small wounds, and Qin Lin's abdomen had been cut open and the blood was flowing.
Ning Jiuwei frowned slightly, and killed the dead soldier with the long sword in her hand. Because she was worried, the dead soldier behind took advantage of her, and the black silver needle went straight to the back of her heart.
By the time Ning Jiuwei turned around, it was already too late. Before she could react, she was blocked by the sudden appearance of a black shadow. Her pupils dilated and she stared stupidly.
When Mrs. Gu fell, she was still looking back at her, with reluctance and love in her eyes. Ning Jiuwei, as if she suddenly reacted, hurriedly reached out to hold Mrs. Gu's sliding body in her arms.
"Jiu...Jiuwei..." Mrs. Gu looked at Ning Jiuwei, but blood kept flowing from the corner of her mouth.
Ning Jiuwei kept shaking her head. She wanted to touch Mrs. Gu again and again, but she seemed to be afraid to do so. She frowned, shook her head with scarlet eyes and said, "No, don't talk, I'll go right away." Find Le Xuan, she will definitely be able to cure you."
When Mrs. Gu heard Ning Jiuwei's words, there was a smile in her eyes, but she suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood and said, "Jiuwei, I know I'm afraid I won't survive. I cough...can I call you Yue'er? ?”
"Okay, you name me, you are my mother, I agree to whatever you call me..." Ning Jiuwei said, wiping her face randomly, and then she realized that her face was already stained with tears.
"Yue'er, my Yue'er..." Mrs. Gu said as she raised her hand to gently caress Ning Jiuwei's cheek with reluctance.
Ning Jiuwei saw Mrs. Gu's face getting greener and greener, took her hand and said, "Stop talking, I will take you to find Le Xuan now."
"Jiu Wei, don't bother. If you really care about me, just promise me one thing. OK... OK." Mrs. Gu pulled Ning Jiuwei's sleeve and asked.
With Mrs. Gu like this, how could Ning Jiuwei say no? She nodded and said, "You say it."
"Can...can you call me mother?" Mrs. Gu looked at Ning Jiuwei with tears in her eyes and said.
Hearing Mrs. Gu's words, Ning Jiuwei felt like a lump in her throat. The grudge between her and Mrs. Gu could be said to last two lifetimes. It was impossible to say that she didn't resent Mrs. Gu. The word 'mother' was stuck in her throat. I just can't get out.
Seeing Ning Jiuwei's expression, Mrs. Gu's eyes darkened and she said, "If you don't want to scream, just don't scream. I know you will still blame me after all."
"...Mom." Ning Jiuwei finally shouted.
Hearing Ning Jiuwei's words, Mrs. Gu's eyes filled with tears and she said, "Yue'er, my child, I have been looking forward to this for nearly ten years, but now I am willing to die..."
"Mom, don't leave me. I don't blame you. Don't you want to make it up to me? You haven't seen me get married yet..." Ning Jiuwei shed more and more tears.
When Mrs. Gu heard Ning Jiuwei's words, she seemed to have thought of something and said, "Yue'er, listen to mother, you and Qin Lin, cough... you..."
At this moment, a cold arrow suddenly shot out from behind. Mrs. Gu's words disappeared in the air before she could finish her words. When Ning Jiuwei reacted, she looked up and saw Su Yu holding a bow and arrow, pointing in her direction.
"Mother, mother..." Ning Jiuwei cried and shouted loudly.
However, Mrs. Gu's blood-stained hands dropped, her eyes were dilated, she had long since stopped breathing, and her body had begun to stiffen under the howling of the cold wind.
"Di Qingchen, I want you to pay the price." Ning Jiuwei looked in the direction of Su Yu, her eyes filled with bone-gnawing hatred.
… ….
In the Ziyuan Palace, Di Qingchen let out a long sigh of relief when he heard Su Yu's words, and said to Su Yu: "You did a good job. I will give you a big reward when you go back."
Di Qingchen was really scared. He couldn't imagine how big a commotion it would cause if that matter was leaked. He couldn't let Mrs. Gu tell it, which was why she had to die.
Su Yu was naturally happy, but suddenly he thought of Ning Jiuwei's hateful eyes before he left. He couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine and asked: "Your Majesty, after this incident, Miss Ning completely hated you. I want to…”
"It doesn't matter, she will forgive me sooner or later, but the person who hurt her must not be let go." Di Qingchen said, narrowing his eyes, not knowing what idea he was brewing.
"What does your Majesty want?" Su Yu asked tentatively.
Di Qingchen sneered and said, "Isn't Qin Su always eyeing the throne? Then let's help. It can be regarded as inheriting the kindness that Dali helped me in the past."
"I will invite the second prince to come over now." Su Yu said.
"No, if Qin Su is not 90% sure, he will not act rashly. You go and bring Mu Xiaoxiao first." Di Qingchen said.
Su Yu's face stiffened and he said, "Your Majesty, Mu Xiaoxiao... Mu Xiaoxiao is dead."
"Dead? When did it happen? What happened?" Di Qingchen asked with a frown, obviously not knowing that Mu Xiaoxiao was dead.
Looking at Di Qingchen's ugly face, Su Yu said cautiously: "On the day Mrs. Gu was sent here, she was killed by Princess Shen Rongxi, the daughter of King Zhenbei."
Di Qingchen frowned slightly and asked, "Why?"
"I heard that it was because Mu Xiaoxiao found someone to taint Shen Rongxi's innocence and told her personally, so Miss Shen was so anxious that she killed the person in a moment of confusion. Now she is crazy. "Su Yu said.
"It's her own fault. It's ridiculous that she still wants to be compared with Jiu Wei." Di Qingchen said with contempt in his tone.
After hearing Di Qingchen's words, Su Yu lowered his head and did not dare to comment. Instead, he asked: "What about the Emperor and the second prince?"
"Let me think about it carefully. You can go down first." Di Qingchen waved his hand and said impatiently.
