The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

Looking at the pile of Yinyang flowers in the middle of the martial arts training ground, Gu Anqing's face was like a piece of cloth soaked in ink, so heavy that it seemed as if the ink could be wrung out at any time. At the same time, a deep sense of powerlessness also emerged in his heart.

Lin Nanyue stood beside Lin Qiuer, looking at the servants rushing around the scene, full of confusion.

He came to the training ground early in the morning to train with the guards who had gotten up early to practice martial arts, and had no idea what was going on.

I couldn't help but whisper to Lin Qiu'er, "Little sister, what happened?"

Lin Qiuer did not intend to hide it, so she told Lin Nanyue the whole story, even telling him that this might be a conspiracy against the entire Nalan Kingdom.

Although Lin Nanyue was simple-minded and couldn't think about complicated things, she knew from Lin Qiuer's explanation that the matter was very serious.

He began to worry whether Nalan Village was also being plotted against secretly, and said anxiously, "Will those people also want to harm the people in our village?"

"It's hard to say." Lin Qiuer felt that Nalan Village might have been targeted by someone a long time ago, but when it came to dealing with poisonous insects and snakes, witch doctors were the forefathers, so this method didn't work.

Nalan Village is strong. After all, it has survived for a thousand years under the watchful eyes of the powerful people of the four countries.

One of the reasons is the awe of Nalan Village, but it is undeniable that the strong fighting power of later generations is also a reason.

However, it might have been these people who plotted behind the scenes and killed the young and middle-aged people in Nalan Village more than ten years ago, which is why they have so few people now, most of whom are women, children and the elderly.

"If we want to keep the people in the village safe, we must work hard to improve our martial arts and make preparations in advance before the danger comes." Lin Qiuer never forgets to brainwash Lin Nanyue. No matter how hard she tries, she cannot save a group of stupid people who don't want to save themselves.

Lin Nanyue was aroused by Lin Qiu'er's words, and was even more eager to learn the martial arts of the Gu family. A guard who played well with him hurried past him, and he changed his mind and walked up to the man, put his arm around his shoulder and talked, and then left with the guard.

His actions were decisive, as if telling Lin Qiuer that he understood what she meant.

Lin Qiuer felt very happy and thought to herself that Lin Nanyue was also a smart person who understood things quickly.

"The relationship between Miss Lin and Brother Lin really makes me envious." Gu Anqing stood beside Lin Qiuer without knowing when, and said with melancholy.

Lin Qiuer raised her eyebrows. Did he envy the relationship between her and her brothers?

This is really interesting. Who doesn't have one or two things that others envy?

"Mr. Gu, you don't know that I envy you too. You are dressed in fine clothes and fed with delicious food, surrounded by maids and servants, and your servants are loyal to their master. Even though you are almost fainted by the meaning of my words, you still emphasize that your whole family will not betray your master."

Gu Anqing smiled, with a hint of self-mockery and sadness in his tone, "This is probably all I have."

"You really don't know how to appreciate your good fortune." Lin Qiu'er didn't want to continue talking to Gu Anqing. After all, hatred of the rich can easily make people lose themselves. The more she counted the things he had, the more she saw clearly that as a resident of Nalan Village, she was just a poor loser.

"You have elders to teach you, and a vast territory for you to realize your ambitions. People are in awe of your status and dare not disrespect you in the slightest. These alone are things that many people cannot obtain in several lifetimes. But you have them since you were born. So you deserve that there are some things that you cannot obtain in this lifetime."

"Hahaha... Miss Lin sees through me so clearly. She knows me better than I know myself." Gu Anqing couldn't help but laugh out loud. He had never met someone who understood him so well in his life.

"Miss Qiu'er is so smart, is she also clear about what she has and what she lacks?" A desire to get to know her better arose in his heart.

Lin Qiuer noticed that Gu Anqing was a little out of control, but she didn't care.

She thought for a moment and then replied seriously, "I just need a trustworthy ally."

Gu Anqing's heartstrings seemed to be plucked by a hand. This was a strange feeling he had never experienced before. His inner thoughts made him say inexplicably, "I wonder if I have the honor to become Miss Qiu'er's ally?"

He said this seriously, as if he had rehearsed it many times in his mind.

Lin Qiu'er was secretly delighted: This is what I've been waiting for.

However, she still had to put on some airs, lest Gu Anqing think that she had to get close to him, and she had to let him know that he was not the only choice.

She tapped her left palm with the scallion-white fingers of her right hand and said calmly, "That depends on Mr. Gu's sincerity. Verbal promises can never compare to actual actions."

Each word was separated by a certain amount of time, as if each word was carefully considered.

Gu Anqing was extremely excited when he heard Lin Qiu'er's agreement, but he suppressed it with great willpower. However, the corners of his mouth still curled up involuntarily, "Then I will ask Miss Qiu'er to give me some advice next."

"Mutual." Lin Qiu'er was in a good mood because she had found a powerful ally for the village. The joy she felt was no less than that of having secured a big project in her previous life.

Her obsidian-like eyes looked at Gu Anqing, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she was admiring her own work.

Chang Qing stood not far from the young master and heard the conversation between the two clearly. He was surprised but also expected that the young master and Lin Qiuer would reach a cooperative relationship.

It took a whole morning to clean up the Yinyang flowers in the Gu Mansion. They were piled up in the middle of the martial arts training ground and burned. A huge fire rose into the sky.

The orange-red flames reflected on everyone's faces, as if to burn all illusions to ashes.

The people living nearby were very concerned about the fire in Gu's mansion and immediately sent their servants out to find out what was going on. However, no matter how hard the servants tried, they could not find out any information.

It was also at this time that they realized that the secret agents planted in the Gu Mansion had been cleared out at some point.

"It feels like a storm is coming," the heads of various families sighed in unison. They looked at the flames rising into the sky and knew that this was no ordinary fire.

At this time, after Lin Qiu'er told them to keep the ashes for her, she returned to Old Master Gu's courtyard accompanied by Gu Anqing and under Gu Zhong's distrustful gaze.

In the flowerbed outside Old Master Gu's room, the servants are still cleaning the area where the Yinyang flowers had been pulled out, and new flowers are planted there from time to time.

When I stepped into the room, the windows were covered by curtains, making the light inside dim. In this airtight room, the air was filled with an indescribable sense of oppression.

Lin Qiu'er stood by the bed, frowning. She felt that the air was like a pool of stagnant water, so she said,

"First, have someone open all the windows."

"How can this be done? The old master is sick, how can he be exposed to the wind?" Gu Zhong immediately objected, but because he was worried about disturbing the old master Gu who was resting, he spoke in a low voice.

Lin Qiu'er looked at Gu Zhong and motioned him to go ahead. She said in a provocative tone, "Are you the doctor or am I the doctor? You come if you can do it."

Gu Zhong felt humiliated, his anger burning uncontrollably like fire, his voice rising by two degrees, "I know medical skills, why would I need a brat like you to come to me?"

Lin Qiu'er had anticipated Gu Zhong's reaction, and she raised her eyebrows. Her voice was gentle, but anyone could hear the contempt, "So you're not a doctor. I thought you were very reasonable. You must have practiced medicine for decades and have great medical skills.

Since you are not a doctor, please shut your old lips and let me, a little girl who is still wet behind the ears but still knows some medical skills, take a look. Is that okay?"

At this moment, Old Master Gu's voice suddenly rang out in the room: "Gu Zhong, listen to this little girl."

His voice was weak but firm.

After these words were spoken, the whole room fell silent.
