It was April, late spring, and the weather was neither cold nor hot. Many people along the way came to the capital with their bags on their backs just to get something to eat. After all, there was famine everywhere. Linglong Pavilion could help one place but could not help the people across the country.

The emperor only cared about internal fighting and ignored the plight of the common people. Or, there were many civil and military officials in the court, but no one was willing to solve the plight of the common people. The loyal officials who were willing to do so either died or had their ambitions wiped out and dared not to participate again.

"Miss, we will be back at the General's Mansion in three hours. Please have some snacks to fill your stomach first." Liu Yue said, taking out all the snacks from the food box.

Seeing that the young lady was feeling a little depressed, Durian acted out the second aunt's ugly behavior vividly.

Second Aunt Chenxi got up as usual, but when she opened her eyes, she saw a heart hanging on the bed. She screamed immediately and called her personal nanny in.

As soon as the nanny stepped into the inner room, what she saw was Nanny Rong's ripped body. She instantly fell to the ground and backed away screaming.

In this way, word spread, and everyone in the Gu Mansion came to Second Aunt's yard early in the morning. The servants were all discussing who was so crazy. Second Aunt repeated loudly like a madman, it must be her, it was Gu Qianyue, this lunatic, she actually cut open Rong Mama's heart, only she would do that, only her.

Gu Yunshen went into the inner room and saw that it was indeed a body and a human heart, but how could Second Aunt, a woman, recognize that a human heart looked like this? Just as he was about to question it, he heard the servants whispering and discussing.

Could it really be the Second Young Lady? Two years ago, Erya was also cut open in the same way. For a time, everyone was in a panic, fearing that they would be the next soul to be killed.

My grandmother kept muttering to you not to let that disaster star come back, but you didn't listen. Now look what happened. This kind of thing happened before he even came back.

Grandfather just told grandmother to shut up and asked mother how she planned to solve the problem. After all, this was her daughter and he needed her attitude.

The mother's face was not very good, and indirectly she no longer had a good impression of Gu Qianyue. With the attitude of sacrificing relatives for the sake of justice, she arranged for someone to report to the police, and said that if Gu Qianyue really did such a thing, she would never tolerate it and would definitely hand her over to the authorities for severe punishment.

Gu Yunshen wanted to stop them, wondering what if Yue'er did it. His grandfather asked the secret guards to take him away by force.

"Haven't you already found out what happened two years ago?" Grandfather asked sternly.

"But she is my sister, I..." Grandfather stopped him from finishing his words and made his attitude clear at the same time. Since she disdains our Gu family, we should find a day to get married when she comes back.

We can't let her ruin our Gu family's century-old foundation. Gu Yunshen was speechless. His grandfather had obviously given up on Gu Qianyue. He could only accept his grandfather's arrangement. He was forced to do so. He probably thought that this way his sister couldn't blame him, and he would feel better.

Everyone was relieved after receiving their mother's promise, but Gu Meng in the corner smiled coldly, thinking to herself, Gu Qianyue, Gu Qianyue, even your biological mother is going to give up on you. What should you do if you come back?

After reading the letter, Durian felt a little depressed. He didn't expect that the eldest lady would ignore the relationship between mother and daughter and not even leave any way out for the young lady.

"Miss, I will definitely protect you." Durian said decisively.

But Gu Qianyue didn't say anything, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Xiao Lan knew that she must be thinking about her parents in her previous life, and she thought that she could complete Qian Qian's family affection here and not let Qian Qian be too indifferent and lonely. There is still someone who cares about her.

Unexpectedly, I pushed Qian Qian into another hell and endured this heart-wrenching pain again.

If Gu Qianyue knew about this, she would definitely say, "So, brother, I'm not familiar with them, how could I possibly hope to be bullied again?"

Liu Yue took the letter and read the end, then asked, "All the old lady's money has been robbed, what should we do with it?"

"Then donate her. By the way, mention the old lady's name and help her do good deeds and accumulate virtue." Gu Qianyue said.

"Miss, they treated you like this, why bother giving them a reputation of being kind?" Durian said angrily.

"The master is not trying to leave them a good reputation, but to make it impossible for them to be held accountable later. It is like a dumb person eating bitter herbs and unable to express his pain." Liu Yue added.

After a while, Gu Qianyue ordered Durian to check Gu Meng's whereabouts in recent years and his relationship with the prince.

But Durian doesn't understand why the eldest lady wants to kill you, her master. What does she want?

Oh, yes, what does Gu Meng want? She has been bullying the original owner since she was a child, and even made her dress ugly and ruin her reputation. It seems that the person behind her is not simple, Gu Qianyue thought about it and her eyes gradually turned cold.

"Whoever can take down Master Jiang's head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold." said the leading man in black.

Jiang Yubai went to the White Horse Temple to worship Buddha as usual, but he didn't expect there would be assassins, and they appeared so blatantly. I just don't know who they are this time?

"Prince, you go first, we will hold them back." Mu Huo was killing the men in black while anxiously letting Jiang Yubai leave.

But there were too many men in black, and Muhuo and Mushui were all injured to varying degrees.

It seems that Mu Feng was led away by someone. Who is that person who could hold Mu Feng back for so long?

The leader of the men in black saw that they had persisted for so long without succeeding in capturing Jiang Yubai, and that he had also lost many men, so he increased the bounty. The masked men were rewarded and tried even harder to hunt down Jiang Yubai, and they all bypassed Muhuo and stopped fighting with him.

"Boss, you don't need to take out all the bounty for killing a sick guy." The younger brother was puzzled. He didn't want to pay so much money. Wouldn't he be left with nothing after paying it all?

The boss gave his men a warning look and thought to himself that Prince Jiang was indeed not a simple person. No wonder the people above him kept sending people to kill him.

At the same time, I don't understand whether Prince Jiang is lucky or just pretending. There is always someone who jumps out to save him when he is dying. It's very strange.

"Who are you? Who sent you here? My grandfather is the King of Wisdom. If you don't want to die, get out of here." Jiang Yubai shouted fearfully. It's not that he didn't want to fight, but he didn't know who his opponent was this time. He could only continue to pretend to be a useless prince who couldn't fight and was afraid of death.

"I never thought that the famous prince of Ming Palace is actually a useless guy who can't even lift a hand." Gu Qianyue watched them fight with lack of interest.

Gu Qianyue lowered the curtains, glanced at Liuyue and said, "Didn't you say that there's no one here?"

"Master, I didn't expect that after avoiding being hunted by my own people, I would encounter others being hunted." Liu Yue's usually cold face, with an awkward smile, was so incongruous. The picture was so beautiful.

Durian covers his face to show that he doesn't want to see the eye-irritating sight.

The servant driving the carriage outside was very scared. It was the first time he saw the assassination scene and he looked at Nanny Chun with weak hands and feet.

Nanny Chun asked outside, "Miss San, what should we do now?"

"Turn around and take another route." It's better to fight against your own people than to get into big trouble.

"Who's in that carriage over there?" the man in black suddenly asked.

At this time Jiang Yubai also discovered the carriage, so he used his Qinggong to fly into the carriage, but his direction was not right. Jiang Yubai's face was facing Gu Qianyue's chest. The scene stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at each other in embarrassment.

Jiang Yubai didn't dare to move, not knowing what to do. Gu Qianyue said coldly, "How long are you going to hold me, Master Jiang?"

"Hahaha, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Miss, I didn't mean it. It's just that the situation is urgent and I want to ask you to save my life." Jiang Yubai explained weakly.

When Jiang Yubai raised his face, Gu Qianyue was truly amazed. He had a charming appearance, his face was fair and delicate, without any flaws, as if it was a piece of finely carved jade.

His blue eyes were as clear and deep as the sea. He also had a faint scent of ebony on him, which was particularly pleasant.

But it doesn't smell good to have blood on your body, and Gu Qianyue felt a little regretful.

Gu Qianyue looked at Jiang Yubai for a few seconds and then regained her composure, which Jiang Yubai also noticed.

"Please get off the carriage, Prince Jiang!" Gu Qianyue began to drive people away.

Durian opened her mouth in shock, and finally it was Liu Yue who lifted her chin.

Liu Yue stood at the edge of the carriage and asked Jiang Yubai to get off. The nanny and the servant hid nearby and watched secretly.

Nanny Chun found out that it was Prince Jiang, and advised, "Miss San, this is not appropriate. After all, Prince Jiang is your fiancé."

When Nanny Chun saw Master Jiang, she felt as if she had seen a living Buddha. She thought that with Master Jiang around, Miss San would not kill her. After all, unmarried women are particularly concerned about their reputation.

At this time, Nanny Chun was especially grateful to the old lady. It was all thanks to the old lady who had brought her to the palace before and she had met the prince by chance, otherwise she would have been doomed.

Jiang Yubai just realized that this was Gu Qianyue, his fiancée. He didn't expect that after two years of separation, Gu Qianyue had become prettier and also much more indifferent. He just didn't know if she would chase after the prince again.

"So it's Miss Gu San. I'm your fiancé, how can I just stand by and watch you die? I..." Jiang Yubai said pitifully.

Gu Qianyue interrupted him and asked, "Are we familiar with each other?"

The man in black also chased after them, but he couldn't see through Liu Yue's martial arts, so he didn't dare to act rashly. He said, "We only want to kill Master Jiang. If you hand him over, we will let you go."

The carriage was surrounded by men in black. Muhuo and Mushui also came over, but stopped outside the carriage waiting for Jiang Yubaidao's order. At the same time, they also secretly took a break. After all, they had been fighting for so long that even a dog needed to take a break.

Gu Qianyue coldly told him to go down, but Jiang Yubai didn't seem to understand. He hugged Gu Qianyue's arm and said pitifully, "Can you really bear to let me die at such a young age, when I'm as beautiful as a flower?"

At this time, Jiang Yubai was sick for many years, his face was pale, and there were wounds and bloodstains on his white robe, which made him look even more pitiful.

With tears in her eyes, she continued, "You are indeed the same as them. You all want me to die. I..."

Mu Huo and Mu Yun looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes. They didn't expect that the master was such a person.

Jiang Yubai secretly observed that Gu Qianyue was looking at him with interest. Knowing that his beauty trap had failed, he could only bite the bullet and say, "Then I'd rather die. I just hope that I won't implicate you, Yue'er." After Jiang Yubai finished speaking, he stood up resolutely.

"How much are you offering?" Gu Qianyue asked.

Jiang Yubai was stunned when he heard this.

"What the lady means is how much money you are willing to spend to ensure your safety." Durian explained. After all, the lady really didn't want to talk, and she usually gave very little, so she could only explain it herself.

Jiang Yubai looked up and saw Gu Qianyue staring at him. Her meaning was very clear: How much do you want to pay?

Gu Qianyue also complained: "Look at all the people outside. They can't even deal with your useless guards. If we take action, the price will be higher. It depends on how much your life is worth."

Mu Shui's mouth twitched, and the thought "I am a loser" kept repeating in his mind.

Mu Huo retorted: "I'm not a loser, I..." Then Liu Yue put a knife to his neck and he dared not speak anymore.

Jiang Yubai sat lazily in the carriage. Although he didn't know how strong Gu Qianyue was, he knew that Liu Yue and Durian's martial arts were not simple, so he started to negotiate the price.

"Ten thousand taels." Jiang Yubai said.

"You are only worth ten thousand taels? I remember the reward on the assassination list was ten thousand taels of gold." Gu Qianyue looked at him with a smile.
