Gu Xi carried Wei Rou to the gate of the palace, and Wei Rou in his arms opened his eyes.

She quietly glanced behind her, seeing no one else, then patted Gu Xi on the shoulder, motioning him to put her down.

Gu Xi raised his eyebrows.

"Not drunk?"

Wei Rou bent her lips and smiled: "No. If you don't do this, how can the general escape?"

As she spoke, Wei Rou took Gu Xi's hand.

"You put that assassin in?"

When she spoke, she deliberately lowered her voice.

She had already guessed that something would happen at the birthday banquet today.

When the two people from Siyou Kingdom were caught in Quling Mountain before, they told about their plan to do something at the birthday banquet.

Since they have this plan, there must be more than one person to assassinate.

But now there is only one person, and it seems that Gu Xi is responsible for it.

Gu Xi nodded.

"Rou'er is really smart."

Wei Rou was used to being praised by him, she couldn't help but rolled her eyes, it was really nothing to praise.

"Will that find you?"

"Don't worry, I've dealt with it cleanly, and I won't be found out. The emperor will only know that it was Si Youguo's fault. By the way, I blamed the newly promoted beauty in the palace."

Wei Rou opened her eyes wide, and quickly figured out Gu Xi's intentions.

She had promised Wan Ping to help her with the marriage.

Gu Xi naturally knew it too.

Now it is just a chance to kill two birds with one stone, which not only makes the emperor suspicious of Siyou country, but also dispels his idea of ​​wanting Wanping to get married.

This trick to borrow a knife to kill people is really clever.

Wei Rou couldn't help applauding Gu Xi!

She was about to say something when a voice came from behind her.

"General Gu, wait for me!"

It is Ye Xing, king of Yu.

Wei Rou immediately fell into Gu Xi's arms and continued to pretend to be drunk.

Gu Xi hugged her waist, his eyes were full of tenderness.

Ye Xing walked over quickly and saw Wei Rou lying in Gu Xi's arms, he wondered, "Madam Gu is drunk?"

Gu Xi glanced at him.

"What is King Yu's order?"

Ye Xing hurriedly waved his hand: "General Gu is serious, how dare I tell you! I just want to tell you something, I wonder if I can take a step to speak?"

Gu Xi hugged Wei Rou horizontally and nodded.

"It's better to just say it here."

Ye Xing looked hesitantly at Wei Rou who was in Gu Xi's arms.

Gu Xi's expression became lighter.

"It's okay."

Ye Xing had no choice but to look around, seeing that no one had come yet, he stepped forward and said in a low voice, "General Gu, save me."

Gu Xi's eyes were slightly puzzled.

"What does King Yu mean by this?"

Ye Xing gritted his teeth and said, "When I return to the fief, I'm afraid something will happen to me. Please protect me, General Gu."

Gu Xi thought for a moment, then understood the deep meaning, and did not agree to Ye Xing immediately, but said: "Why didn't His Highness King Yu inform His Majesty of this matter? Your Majesty will surely relieve King Yu's worries and problems."

Ye Xing lowered his voice.

"General Gu knows in his heart that there are many eyes and ears in the palace, and my fiefdom is so remote that even His Majesty can't reach it. What's more, he may not believe what I say."

Gu Xi fell silent.

Ye Xing looked a little anxious.

"General Gu, I'm not exaggerating with you. Siyou Kingdom is eyeing a tiger. If my fiefdom falls, it will be easy for them to invade. General Gu, please promise me!"

While Gu Xi was still thinking, someone poked his waist twice.

He looked down at Wei Rou in his arms, and raised the corners of his lips.

Seeing Gu Xi's expression, Ye Xing was a little inexplicable.

Gu Xi has already nodded in response.

"King Yu, don't worry, I will order someone to protect you secretly and keep your life safe."
