Princess Jing and Gu She were both at the cemetery, and when they saw Tao Mo coming, they both looked at the wet mark on his chest. Princess Jing just smiled, but Gu She turned her face away after taking a look, expressionless.

Tao Mo felt uncomfortable, so he just said, "Miss Qiu is willing."

Princess Jing smiled and said, "I knew Master Tao would be successful in no time."

As soon as the middle-aged man gave an order, a group of people came to dig up the sealed soil.

Not long after I saw the tomb, the middle-aged man only broke the opening on the right hand side.

As soon as the coffin was lifted out, Princess Jing stood up and went to the coffin.

Gu Shetao Mo stood alone, and waited a little distance away.

As soon as the coffin lid was opened, Princess Jing murmured: "Sister!" and passed out.

A group of followers gathered around and called: "Princess! Princess!"

Tao Mo anxiously looked at Gu She: "Gu She, don't you know some medical skills? Look at the princess!"

Gu She looked at him sternly, and Tao Mo couldn't help shivering.

It is true that Gu She is a cold-hearted person, but he has never looked at Tao Mo with such eyes, this is the first time.

Tao Mo felt as if ice water was pouring from head to toe, and he even suspected that Gu She wanted to break up with him.

Fortunately, Gu She's gaze didn't last too long, although he was still full of resentment, he turned his head away.

Just when Tao Mo's heart was extremely cold, he heard Qiu Shuining call him softly: "Tao Mo!"

He turned his head to look, turned and walked over.

Qiu Shuining looked at him questioningly.

Tao Mo looked at this ignorant young girl, thinking of her fate being turned upside down at this moment, he couldn't express what he felt in his heart, and he didn't know whether to be happy or sad for her.

He just said a fact: "Your mother is indeed Princess Wei."

"Now that you know, then bury my mother back quickly! Why is it open?"

"Your aunt, Princess Jing, has fainted. We have to wait for her to wake up."

"How can I have an aunt?!"

Tao Mo asked in surprise, "Princess Jing is your mother's younger sister, isn't she called Auntie?"

Qiu Shuining looked reluctant: "I don't even know her."

"Won't we get to know each other later?"

Gu She's voice came suddenly: "Miss Qiu is not willing to recognize relatives, why is Master Tao so enthusiastic?"

On the official road, Princess Jing held on to Qiu Shuining: "It's fine if you really don't want to recognize me as your aunt, just recognize me as a foster mother."

"My foster mother is dead."

Princess Jing smiled helplessly: "You don't want to have an identity related to the royal family?"

"I don't want to." Qiu Shuining was categorical, "When the stepmother was alive, every time she saw me, she said, don't ask about my background, don't get involved with my parents' past acquaintances, just live in seclusion for the rest of my life."

Princess Jing looked at Tao Mo in the distance: "If you recognize your relatives, your uncle the emperor will give you a marriage!"

Qiu Shuining said without hesitation, "I don't want a marriage, I just like Tao Mo."

Princess Jing had a deep meaning: "I will marry you and Tao Mo."

Qiu Shuining was surprised: "Then you still need to give a marriage? The person Tao Mo likes doesn't like him. I chase him every day and try my best to treat him well. I don't believe he won't be tempted!"

Princess Jing hesitated to speak: "Silly girl, I still want to find your Uncle Chang's child. Let's see you later. Maybe you won't think so at that time."

"Why is there another Uncle Chang? The affairs of the emperor's family are so troublesome, thanks to the fact that I don't want to be a relative of the emperor's family!"

Princess Jing looked at her in a daze, and suddenly smiled wryly: "It's quite annoying, but it's actually quite nice of you to be like this."

Princess Jing left, but it was impossible for them to chase Princess Jing's carriage. By the time Princess Jing left completely, it was almost dark. If you force yourself to go on the road, you will have to spend the night in the wilderness. The group had no choice but to go back home, unpack the bedding, and stay in Danyang for another night.

Gu She went straight back to the mansion, he walked so fast that Tao Mo didn't even have time to stay. Looking at the shadow of Gu She's carriage going away, Tao Mo felt as if a knife had stabbed him in the heart, and the cool breeze was exhaling in pain.

Qiu Shuining didn't notice that Tao Mo was in a bad mood at all, and wanted to pester Tao Mo to talk. Later, seeing Tao Mo's lack of energy, he realized that he might be tired.

Tao Mo was really tired, but he really couldn't sleep. He didn't think that Qiu Shuining was interested in him. Now that he thought about it, he could see the clue very early on, but because he only had Gu She in his heart, and he regarded Qiu Shuining as an ignorant little sister, so he ignored it.

And Gu She, what happened today? When Gu Xiaojia was asked to pick him up, he treated him the same as before, why did he turn his face when he saw Qiu Shuining for a while? If it was because Qiu Shui Ning hugged him, then with Gu She's temper, seeing him would make him feel ashamed, but Gu She was just not happy at that time.

Gu She turned his face completely, it seems that it started when he asked Gu She to treat Princess Jing who was fainting.

Thinking of this, he suddenly realized that since seeing Princess Jing, Gu She has shown disgust and hatred for Princess Jing. But Princess Jing's appreciation for him and his concern for Princess Jing made Gu She even more unhappy.

He secretly made up his mind: when he sees Gu She tomorrow, he will never mention Princess Jing again.

As for Qiu Shuining... He wanted to tell Qiu Shuining that he only regarded her as his younger sister.

Just when I sorted out all this and was about to get a good night's sleep to cope with everything tomorrow, I heard a "puchi" laugh in my ear.

Tao Mo was taken aback, and Hao Guozi screamed even more.

"Hey! Why are you so timid even though you're a man?!"

With a "crash", Qiu Shuining pushed open the window and jumped in.

"How can this be cowardly?!" Hao Guozi was furious, "Where did someone stand outside someone's window in the middle of the night and suddenly make a sound?"

"Oh—" Qiu Shuining felt that something was wrong, "Then I'll go out again."

As she turned around, she glanced at Tao Mo with a smile on her face, her eyes were filled with the tenderness of the first love.

Tao Mo only wished that it would be dawn soon so that he could explain clearly to her.

Qiu Shuining returned to the house, bounced to the bedside, kicked off her shoes with shaking feet, and fell down with her arms outstretched.

An Ran looked at him amusedly: "Are you looking for Tao Mo again?"

Qiu Shuining turned sideways, looking at An Ran with piercing eyes: "Sister An Ran, who do you think Tao Mo likes? Is it really good?"

Without waiting for An Ran to answer, she said again: "I don't think Danyang County can find anyone better than you, but it should not be you... Isn't that girl in Danyang County?"

An Ran lowered her eyelashes, and said calmly: "You like him, just treat him well. If you have fate, you can impress him; if you don't have fate, it's useless even if he doesn't have anyone in your heart."

"Well—my sister is right." She was silent for a moment, then asked again: "Then—how can I treat him well?"

"..."

Did not hear An Ran's answer, she looked at An Ran carefully, only to find that An Ran had fallen asleep!

This is really not like what a martial arts practitioner should do!

Qiu Shuining sighed in frustration, and after tossing and turning a few times, she also fell asleep.

Tao Mo got up very early, and he wanted to make it clear to Qiu Shuining before everyone else got up.

He went to the well to draw water, and just started to wipe his teeth with green salt, when a soft voice came from behind: "Tao Mo."

Tao Mo choked on the green salt and coughed.

Qiu Shuining hurriedly patted him on the back.

After finally stopping coughing, looking back, Qiu Shuining's hair has not been combed, and the black hair is only tied loosely on the top of the head, but the whole person is not sloppy from getting up early, but looks radiant.

Seeing Tao Mo looking at her, she smiled sweetly: "I'll wash your face for you."

Tao Mo took a step back in fright: "No no no."

Qiu Shuining smiled "puchi": "Why are you so scared? Don't be afraid, you found out the real culprit who killed my adoptive mother and Ai Shan for me, and because I was almost poisoned to death, I should repay you .”

Tao Mo saw that she didn't seem to have any intention of forcing it for the time being, so he stood still and said to her, "The case was solved thanks to Gu She. It wasn't because of his tricks, I couldn't solve this case. Besides, I am the magistrate of Danyang County. Everything I did because of the Kuang Mansion's extermination case is what I should do, not for Miss Qiu."

Qiu Shuining pouted: "I don't care, I want to repay the favor anyway!"

After saying that, he went to wring Tao Mo's towel.

Tao Mo hastily stretched out his hand to stop him: "No way!"

Qiu Shuining's hand seemed to have performed a magic trick, before Tao Mo could see clearly, the towel was already in Qiu Shuining's hand.

"Come on! I'll help you wash your face!"

"Miss Autumn!"

Tao Mo was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. Qiu Shuining's hand seemed to be attached to his face, and he couldn't dodge it no matter what. He got a little annoyed, and finally stopped moving altogether.

Qiu Shuining wiped his face for him, slowly and softly, and finally wiped Tao Mo's furrowed brows over and over again, as if to open those furrowed brows.

Tao Mo said softly, "I only think of you as my younger sister."

The towel left Tao Mo's face, Qiu Shuining said seriously, "It's okay to be a younger sister, I will treat you well for the rest of my life."

"But I can't, I want to be with the person I like."

"Isn't she missing you in her heart?" Qiu Shuining cried out aggrievedly, "Then why can't you be nice to me?"

"He doesn't have me in his heart. I just want to live my whole life alone, but there is no way to take my sister as his wife."

Qiu Shuining pouted and looked at Tao Mo for a long time, his eyes gradually turned red: "Who is it that you like? Have I seen it?"

"You know him." Tao Mo raised his head to look at the peach tree that had grown fruit, "It's Gu She."

Qiu Shuining instantly turned into a stone.

Tao Mo lowered his head and took the towel from Shi Shi's hand, turned around to wash up, Qiu Shuining held him back, "Gu—Gu She? You just said it was Gu She?"

Tao Mo turned around and said seriously, "It's Gu She."

Qiu Shuining looked around the rooms and asked in a low voice, "Isn't Gu She a man? Could it be that he is a woman disguised as a man?"

"He is a man, not a woman disguised as a man."

"Two—men." Qiu Shuining swallowed, and said with difficulty, "How do you get married?"

"I don't know." Tao Mo really didn't know, "But I think there must be a way to be together forever."

Qiu Shuining's eyes turned red again: "Smelly Tao Mo, you will make me cry!"

Tao Mo felt that he had also become fragile, so he could imagine her crying like that, "I'm sorry."

"But what I want is not to be sorry!" Qiu Shuining twitched, "Why am I not as good as a man? Is it because I came late?"

Tao Mo had no way to answer her. How good would it be if he had a way to stop himself from loving Gu She

The door was slammed, and the night watchman mumbled to open the door.

Tao Mo and Qiu Shuining hurried away, Tao Mo pretended to be washing his face, and Qiu Shuining went back to the house.

As soon as he put the water on his face, he heard the surprised voice of the yamen servant: "Hey! Mr. Gu! It's so early today!"

Tao Mo picked up the towel, wiped it carelessly, and turned his head to look, only to see Gu She striding in in a suitcase. Seeing him washing his face, he frowned: "Why haven't you packed it yet?"

Tao Mo mumbled: "Isn't it just past Mao?"

At this time, the people in each room seemed to have just heard the movement, and they all pushed open the door and walked out.

Gu She flicked his sleeves: "I'll wait for you in the car."

Turn around and go out again.

Old Tao said: "It's too early to leave now, isn't it?"

Gu She frowned and said, "The county government has something to do every day, and if it's an hour and a half later, I don't know what it will be entangled in."

Lao Tao was right when he thought about it, so he urged everyone to speed up, and the county government soldiers panicked for a while.

When Tao Mo got into the carriage, Qiu Shuining was holding the horse beside him, looking at Gu She's carriage with resentful eyes.

Tao Mo bit the bullet and didn't look at her, and got into the carriage.

After sitting down, he saw bloodshot eyes in Gu She's eyes, and was startled: "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Gu She glanced at him, noncommittal.

Tao Mo felt embarrassed, lowered his head and sat there for a long time, then asked without words: "You seem to hate Princess Jing?"

"It's not just disgusting?!"

It was only five words, but Gu She spoke for a long time, each word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, and his eyes also showed a cold light.
