The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack: The Evil King's Doctor Consort's Ent

Chapter 29 Is She Going to Die?

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Li felt a chill run through his body and spat out another mouthful of blood.

"Who is it?"

"It's the Ninth... Ninth Prince!"

These words, spoken by the guard, caused everyone present to change their expressions, and all eyes turned to Gu Lingzhi.

Gu Lingzhi was caught in the narrow encirclement and was stunned when she heard these words.

Mo Jiuxiao is already twenty miles away and hasn't returned for more than ten days, has he?

Why did it suddenly appear here?

Gu Lingzhi pondered in her heart, but for some reason, she felt confident.

"Eunuch Li, I advise you to release me, otherwise, the Prince will definitely not spare you."

Eunuch Li clutched his chest: "Gu Lingzhi, you really have some tricks up your sleeve. The Empress should have killed you back then to avoid leaving any future trouble."

The scene of Gu Fuling visiting her in prison flashed through Gu Lingzhi's mind. The slave mark on the back of her hand seemed to hurt again. A feeling of resentment filled her eyes, making Gu Lingzhi's eyes slightly red.

"Is that so? Don't think I don't know what your empress is up to. If I die, how will you report back?"

"you……"

Eunuch Li's face turned even paler.

A sinister, grotesque smile spread across his face: "Of course, our family has plenty of ways to make you, a woman, wish you were dead!"

Looking at her expression, Gu Lingzhi felt nauseous all over, and her hair stood on end. She really didn't know how Gu Fuling could use such a vicious eunuch so skillfully.

Treating a woman like this is truly cruel.

Whoosh!

A loud bang suddenly rang out not far from Eunuch Li, who was so startled he almost rolled off the bed.

"Father-in-law!"

The subordinates around him looked anxious, but they noticed that an arrow was deeply embedded in the ground next to Eunuch Li's stretcher.

Everyone's face turned pale. Gu Lingzhi looked up in the direction from which the arrow had come and saw a figure standing on the distant courtyard wall.

Mo Jiuxiao was dressed in silver armor, and the sunlight cast a long shadow on the ground.

He held a bow and arrow in his hand, looking down at everything with a cold expression.

Eunuch Li had no idea why his plan was so easily seen through, or why such a hidden place was discovered so early.

"Ninth... Ninth Prince."

"Release my men, and I will grant you a complete corpse."

The clear voice, imbued with inner strength, traveled from top to bottom and reached everyone's ears.

Gu Lingzhi naturally heard it too.

She raised her chin, her face slightly pale, but she curved her lips into a faint smile.

Unexpectedly, she actually stumbled upon this scene of a hero saving a damsel in distress.

Knowing she had a way out, Gu Lingzhi swayed slightly.

She was still a little dizzy, having only managed to stay awake by sheer willpower.

Eunuch Li gritted his teeth, his heart trembling violently.

"Block them for us! Block them!"

Block?

It can't be stopped at all.

Outside the small courtyard, there were thousands of people surrounding it. The hundred or so people inside the courtyard were completely like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

"Father-in-law, hand him over. Talk to the Prince properly; maybe he'll..."

What can it be?

Eunuch Li rolled his eyes, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. He sent someone to the door to deliver a message to Mo Jiuxiao.

"Ninth Prince, this is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

Mo Jiuxiao leaned his long sword against the wall, his left hand lightly gripping it, his eyes icy cold.

"Misunderstand?"

His voice was cold and his killing intent intensified: "You said you moved my men and entered my military tent, is that a misunderstanding?"

The messenger was about to explain when, before he could even finish, a gleaming silver arrow was driven into his forehead.

When Eunuch Li saw this, his eyes turned bloodshot. Immediately, someone stepped forward and pressed a long sword against Gu Lingzhi's neck.

Gu Lingzhi was exhausted and unable to break free, but her eyes remained fixed on Mo Jiuxiao without any fear.

That man seems to be doing well today.

Her heart skipped a beat, but she stood motionless, completely unaware that she was being held hostage.

"Ninth Prince, do not act rashly, or I will kill this woman."

With a flick of his longsword, a flash of light dazzled Eunuch Li's eyes.

The person holding Gu Lingzhi subconsciously closed their eyes. Just then, a figure suddenly pounced from the side.

Gu Lingzhi was hit hard and fell to the ground.

Sensing danger, the man with the longsword stabbed wildly, striking the little girl squarely in the heart.

Upon seeing this, Gu Lingzhi was momentarily stunned.

Her gaze lingered on the little girl's face, which seemed somewhat familiar.

She was in a daze all day and didn't even glance at her, always mistaking her for someone from Eunuch Li's household.

But now, a fleeting memory suddenly brought up the little girl's face.

"Xiaohuan?"

The little girl opened her mouth, but vomited a mouthful of blood. Half of her tongue prevented her from speaking, but her eyes were full of worry and tension.

Gu Lingzhi finally remembered.

This was her former maid in the Zhenguo Marquis's mansion.

When the Gu family's property was raided, even the servants in the mansion were implicated. Some of the higher-ranking servants were all beheaded and their heads displayed to the public. On that day, the entire Meridian Gate was stained red with the heads of 127 people from the Marquis's mansion.

As for the lowly maids, most of them had their tongues cut out and were driven out of the palace.

Gu Lingzhi never expected to run into one here.

Thanks to her good memory, she was able to recognize the little maid, but unfortunately, it was the last time the two of them saw each other.

She touched her wound, her eyes somewhat bloodshot.

"Don't be afraid, I'll help you stop the bleeding, I'll save you!"

But that sword struck right into his heart.

Her heart was damaged, and only a heart transplant could save her life, but... she had no options right now.

This left Gu Lingzhi feeling utterly hopeless.

Blood kept oozing from the wound, and Gu Lingzhi quickly tried to stop the bleeding.

Xiao Huan grabbed Gu Lingzhi's hand.

With her blood-stained hands, she wrote slowly and firmly, stroke by stroke, in her palm.

Gu Lingzhi's heart clenched instantly as she looked at her crooked and scraggly words.

This was the first time she had ever felt cared for since she came into this world.

Unexpectedly, it was a young girl who brought it to her.

But she didn't finish writing.

"Young Master didn't..."

Nothing happened?

Gu Lingzhi held her wrist tightly.

By this time, Eunuch Li had already reacted. Seeing Gu Lingzhi and Xiao Huan still lying on the ground, he angrily said, "What are you all standing there for? Quickly grab her!"

Xiao Huan has completely stopped breathing.

Gu Lingzhi clenched her blood-soaked hands, her eyes bloodshot as she stared at Eunuch Li.

She suddenly picked up the long sword that had been tossed aside and strode towards Eunuch Li.

The ghostly gaze terrified Eunuch Li, who involuntarily shrank back. He shouted with wide eyes, "Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!"

A eunuch kept shouting that he was protecting the emperor.

Gu Lingzhi wanted to laugh, but she couldn't even be bothered to give him a single expression.

The guard who had just killed Xiao Huan immediately rushed up and blocked Gu Lingzhi's path. Gu Lingzhi made a quick decision and thrust her sword at him.

She has a keen eye and can easily spot flaws in her opponent's movements.

Then, the sword tip sliced ​​through the man's heart and landed in the exact same spot as Xiao Huan.

As she drew her longsword, a trail of blood appeared. Gu Lingzhi tried to move again, but her body suddenly stiffened.

In an instant, a mouthful of dark blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.
