Chapter 215 The Emperor Summons

It turned out that it was Ye Yun herself and Liu Yanshu who were competing in swordsmanship.

This was the first thing that came to Gu Junqing's mind, but when he heard Liu Yanshu's last words, his fingertips moved slightly, and he turned his thoughts to what they had said before they came.

Of course, I didn't expect anything. The two people in front of me actually wanted to stand here, as if they wanted to start quarreling in front of me.

Gu Junqing quickly diverted the two's attention to herself. She was afraid that the two would start fighting while arguing, and it would be difficult for her standing here.

In fact, the ending was very simple. He was about to accept Liu Yanshu's almost provocative invitation just now, but was stopped by Ye Shan and did not have time to interrupt. Now he had to interrupt.

She said, "Okay, I understand. Since Master Liu has said it, if I don't accept it, you will think I am not giving Master Liu face. In this case, let's set a time..."

As soon as these words fell, the attention of the two people who were about to quarrel was indeed attracted. After hearing her words, Liu Yanshu stopped talking. It was obvious that he wanted to decide the time and place by himself. He thought for a while, then replied:

"I remember that the day after tomorrow General Gu will teach everyone swordsmanship at the National Academy. How about asking for instruction at the National Academy the day after tomorrow?"

Gu Junqing naturally had no objection and nodded in agreement.

This was simply a conversation between two people, and they didn't care at all about what the third person, Ye Yun, wanted to say.

Seeing Gu Junqing nod and still looking at them, Liu Yanshu realized belatedly that she was so childish that she almost fought with Ye Yun in front of Gu Junqing. It was so embarrassing.

Glancing coldly at Ye Yun, who looked unyielding, Liu Yanshu snorted coldly, turned around and left without saying any superficial words of farewell.

It can be said that they are unwilling to maintain even the superficial calm.

Gu Junqing was too lazy to maintain such a hypocritical relationship. He clearly disliked the other party but had to pretend that they were harmonious like relatives, friends and brothers. It would be better to just break up directly. It would not harm either side anyway.

Liu Yanshuren had left, and Ye Yun didn't know what to say to Gu Junqing, after all, the two of them were not very familiar with each other.

At the beginning, he listened to a lot of slanderous words from Liu Yanshu against Gu Junqing, so his first impression of her was that she was a general with nothing but pretense. What he despised most was a fool who only had pretense but could do nothing.

Then, after carefully observing Gu Junqing for a while, he realized that he had misunderstood her. He was already dissatisfied with Liu Yanshu, and now he was even more dissatisfied with her.

In fact, to be honest, although Ye Yun acknowledged Gu Junqing's strength, his main purpose was to challenge Liu Yanshu, or the Liu family behind Liu Yanshu.

He had an instinctive dislike for the Liu family, and he didn't know why.

Ye Yun thought to himself as he said goodbye after exchanging a few simple greetings with Gu Junqing.

After he walked away and his back could no longer be seen, Gu Junqing focused on the things he needed to pack.

After packing up, Gu Junqing was thinking about leaving the palace, but before she could take a few steps, she was startled by Li Yuan who appeared out of nowhere.

There was no expression on her face, except that her eyelids twitched. Then she turned around and looked at Li Yuan who stopped her from behind.

Recently, she seemed unable to face the emperor directly, so when she saw Li Yuan, Gu Junqing felt a little confused subconsciously, but she quickly calmed down.

Gu Junqing pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, lowered his eyes to look at Li Yuan, and asked, "What do you want to see me for, Eunuch Li?"

In fact, Gu Junqing controlled her facial expression perfectly. Even if she was thinking about something in her heart, or had other emotions, she could control herself perfectly and not let others see any clues. So Li Yuan just saw her smiling at him, thinking that General Gu was in a good mood now, and he saw that the smile on her face naturally became more sincere.

"The Emperor wants to discuss something important with you," he said with a smile. I don't know if it was his illusion, but I always felt that after he said this, General Gu seemed to be a little unhappy.

Maybe it was his illusion.

Li Yuan looked at the bright smile on Gu Junqing's face and subconsciously defended her in his heart.

Gu Junqing walked in front of Li Yuan on the left. She knew how to get to the Qinzheng Hall, so Li Yuan didn't need to say much or lead the way.

The two soon arrived at the gate of the Qinzheng Palace. Gu Junqing glanced at Li Yuan, who was standing outside the palace gate and seemed to have no intention of going in, and frowned and asked, "Eunuch Li, aren't you going in?"

Eunuch Li shook his head, saying that he would be a redundant person even if he was standing inside the palace, and it would be better for him to be more comfortable outside the palace gate. He was not sure whether the emperor would be willing for him to follow General Gu in.

But he couldn't say the above words in front of General Gu. He smiled and said slowly: "I won't go in with you. After all, the emperor has other things to arrange for me. I can only leave after seeing General Gu go in."

Gu Junqing had no choice but to push open the door and go in. As soon as she entered, Li Yuan who was standing outside closed the door, as if he was worried that she would come out the next second.

Gu Junqing was speechless, but he didn't say much. He just walked into the hall and looked for the emperor to see which corner of the Qinzheng Hall he was in.

However, Gu Junqing had walked back and forth in the Qinzheng Hall countless times but had not seen the emperor. She couldn't help but wonder in her heart. The Qinzheng Hall was not big, but not small either. She had walked there several times, but couldn't find where the emperor was in the hall.

He almost searched the entire palace, except for the inner hall, which Gu Junqing had never been to. Could it be that the emperor was in the inner hall? If so, Gu Junqing thought he should wait in the outer hall for the emperor to come out.

Of course, just as this thought came to mind, someone in the inner hall started speaking.

"Come in" was Qi Yunjin's voice. Perhaps because the distance was a little far, his voice sounded blurry and unreal.

Gu Junqing didn't think much about it. Since the emperor wanted her to go in, if she continued to procrastinate, she didn't know what the emperor would do to her. She was afraid that the emperor would say something strange.

There was actually a pearl curtain between the outer hall and the inner hall. Gu Junqing reached out and lifted the pearl curtain that blocked the view of the inner hall.

She slowly stepped into the inner hall, her eyes slightly raised, as if she was looking around.

In fact, Gu Junqing had only come in once, when he was poisoned. However, his mind was a mess at that time and he didn't remember much about the layout and location of the inner hall. Now that he came in again, his memory of the last time came back instantly.

A strange look flashed across Gu Junqing's eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and no one here saw anything.
