As the sun sets, the bustling capital city gradually quiets down.

After dinner, Gu Yanqing went to the study alone as usual.

He didn't take what happened in the imperial city today to heart. That old bastard Meng Xiang wanted to embarrass him, but his tricks were too simple.

Gu Yanqing sat on the chair and casually opened the "Geography of Kyoto". He found that Jiang Jiang had written a diary early today -

[In the third year of Jianping, on March 16, the weather was sunny.

Today is destined to be a turbulent day. My mood is like a roller coaster, up and down, up and down. I was originally quite happy going to Butterfly Garden with Sister E'er. The happiest thing is that I met Gu Yanhuan and became friends with her. Gu Yanhuan is so beautiful. The Gu family has good genes. Before she turned evil, Gu Yanhuan was also very gentle and kind. I really want to be good friends with her, and I also want to try to change her fate. Liu Cheng'an should have seen her in the Butterfly Garden attic today? I wonder what his impression of Gu Yanhuan is? To fundamentally change Gu Yanhuan's fate, either she needs to fall in love with someone else, or make Liu Cheng'an fall in love with her completely. Now that Chu Yunyue has some problems, it is a perfect opportunity for Gu Yanhuan to make a comeback.

Butterfly Garden?

My sister did go to the Butterfly Garden today, but I didn’t expect Liu Cheng’an to go there too?

Gu Yanqing's eyes fluctuated a little. This little girl Jiang Jiang was quite discerning and knew that her sister was better than Chu Yunyue.

Speaking of which, Yan Huan really didn't have a single close friend in the capital, but...

Ginger?

Gu Yanqing couldn't help but frown——

In his impression, Jiang Jiang was a quirky little girl with a mysterious identity and a lot of tricks up her sleeve.

For a moment, Gu Yanqing couldn't imagine what it would be like if his sister and Jiang Jiang became good friends -

Let's go squat on the street and eat melon seeds together?

amount.

Gu Yanqing regained consciousness and continued reading the diary——

Speaking of Chu Yunyue, my head is spinning. What on earth is wrong with this heroine's plot line? She doesn't fall into the water when she should, and she doesn't recover her memories when she should. Instead, she appears where she shouldn't be! I strongly suspect that all the luck points God gave me were used up by my eldest brother. Otherwise, how could he have been so successful recently? He even barely made it through the palace exam, and he can easily pick up a heroine just by going out. And on the other hand, there's a lady like Sister E'er who is so devoted to him! This is outrageous!

Luck value? What is that?

A person's luck?

After reading this part of the diary, Gu Yanqing's eyes darkened.

You know what, Jiang Chaosheng was able to make it to the palace examination thanks to Jiang Jiang.

Originally, among the ninety tribute students who took part in the palace examination, more than half were from the aristocratic faction. Although Jiang Chaosheng had a chance to be on the list with his talent, he had no power and influence, and no official would choose him.

According to common sense, the most normal outcome would be for Jiang Chaosheng to fail in the palace examination.

However, Gu Yanqing had made a reservation in advance, so Jiang Chaosheng was selected, no more, no less, exactly at the 50th place.

This is a ranking that will not attract anyone's attention and is also the best protection for him.

Everything seems to be predestined by God.

This……

Is this the luck value that Jiang Jiang mentioned?

Gu Yanqing seemed to have some enlightenment, and at this moment his eyes were attracted by the following sentence [Pick up a heroine at home]. Could it be that the meaning of this sentence is...

"Gu Xiang!"

At this time, a familiar voice came from outside the study.

"Minister Gu, I have something important to report."

Bai Tan'er's voice was very urgent.

"come in."

Gu Yanqing put down the Kyoto Geography in his hand. He waved his hand lightly, and the door of the study opened without wind. Bai Tan'er's petite figure immediately appeared in front of Gu Yanqing.

Bai Tan'er looked a little embarrassed at the moment, and she was holding a humanoid creature in her hand.

Well, it seems to be a person, and... a little familiar.

"Prime Minister Gu, I caught a killer with evil intentions!"

Bai Tan'er spoke coldly as she entered the room, and then threw the unconscious Lin Jing to the ground as if to seek credit.

Gu Yanqing raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression unchanged.

Lin Jing.

Beaten badly.

"Ow."

Being thrown to the ground, Lin Jing cried out in pain. He slowly opened his eyes and saw a familiar place.

Ah this...

"Prime Minister, I am guilty."

Lin Jing didn't dare to look up. He rolled over and knelt on the ground. His movements were quick and agile, and he prostrated himself in a very standard way.

Bai Tan'er: ...

and many more.

What's going on?

Bai Tan'er, standing by, widened her eyes. She looked at Lin Jing, who was kneeling on the ground with no hope in life, and then at Gu Yanqing, who was sitting on a chair with a calm demeanor. She opened her mouth and let out an awkward smile, "Minister Gu, this... this is your... your person?"

"Lin Jing, from my house."

Gu Yanqing introduced it casually.

"Prime Minister, I have embarrassed you."

Lin Jing, kneeling on the ground, wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

He can't even beat a little girl... If this gets out, will he still be able to live as a human being?

"Ah, so it's Prime Minister Gu's people. How rude, how rude! Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Bai Tan'er stood aside and spoke awkwardly, while secretly observing Gu Yanqing's reaction with her eyes.

She was really afraid of Gu Yanqing.

The last time she was slapped away by Gu Yanqing, she recuperated for a month. After she recovered, her grandfather warned her not to provoke Gu Yanqing in the future.

She can't afford to offend that person.

"Lin Jing, you go down first."

Gu Yanqing didn't mean to blame Bai Tan'er at all. In fact, he didn't expect Bai Tan'er to capture Lin Jing alive.

This little girl...seems to be much stronger than before.

After Lin Jing left, only Bai Tan'er and Gu Yanqing were left in the study.

In fact, Bai Tan'er was very curious——

Since Lin Jing is Gu Yanqing's man, then did he appear in Liuquan Lane to protect Chu Yunyue?

wrong.

If it was for Chu Yunyue, why would he attack himself?

Moreover, Bai Tan'er has been protecting Chu Yunyue for some time. She has never seen Lin Jing before, nor has she felt the presence of other people around her.

Is it...

Does Lin Jing have another mission?

So curious!

but……

Don't dare to ask.

Bai Tan'er felt like she was being scratched by a cat, she was extremely curious, but facing Gu Yanqing's cold face...

Ok.

She was scared.

"Tell me." Gu Yanqing's voice interrupted Bai Tan'er's messy thoughts. She came to her senses and immediately told her how she had protected Chu Yunyue all the way today.

"Chu Yunfei is truly lacking in virtue. She actually sent someone to abduct Chu Yunyue to the dilapidated temple in Qili Lane, where a bunch of hooligans and thugs gathered, as well as some rioting refugees. When those guys saw the beautiful little girl, they were like hungry wolves seeing fresh meat, their eyes gleaming green..."

Bai Tan'er told the story vividly and passionately.

After hearing Bai Tan'er say that Jiang Chaosheng happened to pass by and rescued Chu Yunyue and brought her back home, Gu Yanqing couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He thought of the "luck value" mentioned by Jiang Jiang in his diary -

Could it be that Jiang Chaosheng really has great luck?

If this is the case……

There was a dark tide in Gu Yanqing's eyes, but the next second, it returned to silence.
