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

Chapter 335 Solving the Trouble

He left those words behind and his figure disappeared outside the door. Since there were no instructions from Gu Lingzhi and Mo Jiuxiao, no one stopped Mo Ying.

Gu Lingzhi lowered her head, not daring to turn around and look at Mo Jiuxiao.

Because she once again chose a situation that was disadvantageous to herself.

She is not decisive enough; one could even say she is indecisive.

Knowing full well that the other person wouldn't give up, letting them go was her biggest mistake.

"I'm glad I know what you're thinking."

Mo Jiuxiao held Gu Lingzhi in his arms, his eyes full of doting affection.

"No matter what, I will stand with you in this battle. I believe that if we join forces, we will be able to overcome all difficulties."

His eyes were cold and aloof, his lips were tightly pressed together, and he lowered his head and closed his eyes: "And no one can separate us!"

"Mother, Mother..."

Two voices came from the side. Gu Lingzhi opened her eyes in surprise and immediately saw two children standing at the door.

Xing'er and An'er, travel-worn, rushed towards Gu Lingzhi as soon as they saw her.

Mo Jiuxiao was pushed aside with a dark face, and Gu Lingzhi's side was completely occupied by the two little ones.

Jiang Ping bowed to Mo Jiuxiao with a helpless expression.

"Your Highnesses are so eager to see their mother that they have come so quickly. We hope Your Majesty will not take offense."

Mo Jiuxiao would never blame Jiang Ping.

He was always insecure, afraid that Gu Lingzhi would suddenly decide to leave, and then he wouldn't even have time to cry.

Now that these two little ones are here, Gu Lingzhi will definitely think of them no matter what she does.

Thinking of this, Mo Jiuxiao gave a helpless bitter smile. His original pride and confidence were completely useless at this moment.

The shadowy figure he had just encountered had instilled in him a profound sense of crisis, making him wish he could make the other person disappear on the spot.

However, since Gu Lingzhi let him go, he must be someone very important to Gu Lingzhi.

He couldn't be a part of Gu Lingzhi's past life, but he would accompany her through all the time to come.

……

Mo Ying left Bei Mo, and the people who were following him were shaken off. The guards who returned to report all looked guilty.

Gu Lingzhi was not surprised at all. Mo Ying had learned the ability to hide his whereabouts, so shaking off those who were trying to find him was a piece of cake for him.

However, Gu Lingzhi still felt a little sad.

If Gu Lingzhi had known Mo Ying's identity back then, and even understood how Mo Ying knew how to return, what choice would she have made?

I guess she'll end up like him.

After all, Gu Lingzhi at that time had no good feelings towards this world.

The matter in the Northern Desert has been resolved, and Gu Lingzhi and Mo Jiuxiao have boarded the carriage and returned to the capital with their two children.

The area outside the imperial city was already packed with people, all waiting to welcome the victorious emperor and empress back.

The city was bustling with activity, and people crowded the streets. Gu Lingzhi lifted the carriage curtain and took a look, feeling a surge of joy in her heart.

You might not be used to it at first, but over time, you'll inexplicably develop a sense of responsibility towards these unfamiliar people and things.

Leaving Mo Jiuxiao to deal with a large group of visiting court officials, Gu Lingzhi took Xing'er and An'er to rest in the backyard of the palace.

A quiet bamboo grove stood nearby, with a hot spring running alongside it. Gu Lingzhi sat in the pavilion, leaning gently against a chair, a slight smile playing on her lips.

So much has happened during this time, and now that I'm back in Beijing, I can finally relax.

Gu Lingzhi looked at the two children sitting quietly beside her, and a hint of curiosity appeared in her eyes: "An'er, are you tired from the journey?"

An'er shook her head, though she sat there yawning with tears in her eyes.

"You two look exhausted. You don't need to stay with your mother. Go and rest."

An'er stretched out her hand and opened her eyes: "Father said that An'er should stay with Mother at all times."

"Why should I keep Mother company? Go and rest with your sister."

After finally getting rid of the two children, Gu Lingzhi sat quietly in the woods for a while. However, not long after, a maidservant from her side came over.

"Your Majesty, it will take some time to finish dealing with the Emperor's situation. Are you really going to leave the palace?"

Gu Lingzhi hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"Hmm, I'm going out for a walk. It's too stuffy staying in the palace!"

That's just an excuse she's making for herself.

Gu Lingzhi didn't discuss it with Mo Jiuxiao mainly because she was afraid he would worry.

After leaving the palace, Gu Lingzhi headed straight for the Swallowtail Tower.

This place was secretly built by Jiang Ping and others under her arrangement, mainly for intelligence gathering, and the main targets of intelligence gathering were beggars from all over the country.

Depending on the magnitude of the news, rewards were given based on merit. After learning about this, the beggars basically recounted everything they had heard in the streets and alleys over the years.

"Your Majesty, we have found out that the person you are looking for has gone to Nanhua. Some of your men have been secretly following him, but he is cautious and vigilant, and we do not yet understand what he is up to."

Gu Lingzhi rubbed her forehead, feeling it throbbing wildly.

“Before, he only wanted to turn everything back, and he never did anything out of line. I’m afraid this time…”

She wasn't sure herself.

However, Mo Ying's abilities are definitely stronger than hers.

If he's determined to destroy everything, even she probably can't stop him.

That's what she's always been most worried about.

"Your Majesty, the reason I summoned you here in such a hurry is because... someone brought back a letter, written in their own handwriting, for you to review in person!"

Gu Lingzhi opened the letter and was immediately stunned.

She silently finished reading the letter, lowered her eyes slightly, but couldn't help wanting to laugh.

"Jiang Ping, you don't need to follow Mo Ying anymore."

"My lady, why?"

Gu Lingzhi tore the letter to shreds: "I believe him, and it seems he has something to hold onto now, so he probably won't do anything wrong in the future!"

Jiang Ping looked completely bewildered.

Gu Lingzhi smiled gently, as if a weight had been lifted from her heart: "The subordinate you sent to follow her is quite good. If she returns, she will be richly rewarded!"

"what?"

Jiang Ping was shocked and didn't understand Gu Lingzhi's meaning at all.

However, since Gu Lingzhi didn't say anything, he couldn't press her for an answer.

Gu Lingzhi was in a very good mood after leaving Swallowtail Tower.

With her last worry resolved, the weight that had been pressing on Gu Lingzhi's heart finally lifted.

She quickened her pace back to the palace, and as soon as she entered, she saw Mo Jiuxiao waiting for her.

Knowing that the other party had found out about her leaving the palace, Gu Lingzhi blinked and, before Mo Jiuxiao could speak, quickened her pace to walk to his side.

With both hands wrapped around his neck, Gu Lingzhi took the initiative and gave him no chance.
