"Is there any movement in the palace?"

Gu Qingqiu carefully tucked the child's quilt, her face was full of mother's warmth.

Just turning around, the warmth on her face quickly disappeared, leaving only cold and stern eyes.

Ban Xia has long been used to her changing face, and at this moment she told the news one by one: "In the past few days, there are only two important news from the palace."

"Firstly, the Zhaoyang Palace was rewarded by the emperor to Concubine Chen, and several secret guards were also given to Concubine Chen to protect Concubine Chen's safety. According to the diagnosis of Concubine Chen, Concubine Chen is pregnant with the prince."

"Secondly, it's about the Pei family... General Pei was seriously injured and has now been sent to the capital."

These two news made Gu Qingqiu's complexion instantly ugly.

She frowned and said in a deep voice, "Is there no other good news?"

Ban Xia lowered her head: "I haven't heard about it yet."

Gu Qingqiu stood in the hall and walked slowly: "Concubine Chen is quite courageous, she dares to spread the news with great fanfare if she is not a dragon! Isn't she afraid that one day things will be revealed and the nine clans will be implicated?"

Ban Xia whispered: "Crown Princess, this is a good opportunity for us to strike!"

"I know." Gu Qingqiu nodded, "Find a way to insert her into the Zhaoyang Palace! Be sure to capture the evidence of her adultery!"

What better way to deal with the emperor than the emperor's pillow man?As long as Concubine Chen uses such a small means, it is enough to make the emperor die unknowingly!Isn't this the trick that the Empress Dowager used against the First Emperor during the Qichen Incident?

When Gu Qingqiu thought of this, the smile on his face became much more obvious.

Beside her, Ban Xia had been paying attention to the changes in her expression, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Then what's the matter with General Pei?" Gu Qingqiu's smiling eyes became much colder just now, "Isn't he dying of illness in Cihuai Temple? Didn't the emperor send several groups of killers there? Can he come back alive? Have you ever seen the injuries on his body?"

A series of questions caught Ban Xia by surprise.

She thought about it for a while, and then answered carefully: "It is said that General Pei was strong-willed, and he pulled out the poisonous arrow in time to prevent the poison from spreading. In the Cihuai Temple, there is a Master Zhiming, an eminent monk, saved General Pei's life by taking action, but the slaves heard from those who saw General Pei that General Pei has already vented more energy than breathed in, and I'm afraid he will soon..."

Ban Xia's words only made Gu Qingqiu's face look a little better.

She closed her eyes, and after thinking about it in her heart, she opened them suddenly, and looked at Banxia coldly: "What about Gu Ning? Where is Gu Ning?"

"The Lord Changning has also followed General Pei back to the capital." Ban Xia said softly, "Many people have seen it."

A haze flashed across Gu Qingqiu's eyes, and soon she made a decision: "Go to Pei's mansion! I'm going to visit General Pei!"

Ban Xia was taken aback, and subconsciously stopped Gu Qingqiu's move: "Crown Princess, the Pei family has always hated you, if you go, they will definitely not treat you well! Plus General Pei just beat you If you win the battle, I'm afraid even the emperor won't stand by your side!"

Ban Xia tried her best to persuade him, but Gu Qingqiu's eyes remained firm: "What's the matter? I'm just being blamed by a princess! I'm going to visit General Pei and appreciate his integrity for the country! If General Pei How can you be worthy of so many people's love if you don't even have such a heart?"

These words fell into Ban Xia's ears, making Ban Xia shudder.

The Pei family and Gu Qingqiu are not in an ordinary hostile relationship. The Pei family must take revenge. Gu Qingqiu has plotted against Gu Ning so many times. It can be said that he has repeatedly violated the bottom line of the Pei family.

And their Pei family has always disdain to pretend, they hate Gu Qingqiu, they will never give Gu Qingqiu a good face, Ban Xia racked his brains and couldn't understand, why Gu Qingqiu insisted on doing this!

She followed Gu Qingqiu out worriedly, and met Chu Yunyi who was about to go out.

After a period of cultivation—actually Gu Qingqiu used blood to feed the subgu in Chu Yunyi's body, Chu Yunyi's complexion improved a lot.

When he saw that Gu Qingqiu was about to go out, Ban Xia was carrying a large bag in his hand, and immediately walked up to Gu Qingqiu: "What is Qingqiu going to do?"

"General Pei was seriously injured, and he is still in a coma. I am worried about him." Gu Qingqiu sighed, "I thought about taking the ginseng from the East Palace and giving it to General Pei to nourish his body."

Chu Yunyi frowned: "The Pei family has always disrespected you, you are the princess, there is no need to please them!"

"Your Highness, you need their support." Gu Qingqiu shook his head slowly, his tone was soft, and there was a hint of grievance, "I can't just sit and watch Your Highness being targeted by the Pei family! Just give it a try." ! The worst result is being turned away!"

Chu Yunyi was greatly moved by Gu Qingqiu's words.

He held Gu Qingqiu's hand firmly, and said excitedly: "Qingqiu, what more can I ask for a wife like you?"

"Don't worry, I will never let you face the Pei family's sarcastic remarks alone!" Chu Yunyi's voice was quite firm, "No matter how ugly the Pei family said, I will always face it with you!"

Gu Qingqiu's face became stiff for a moment, she thought of what Yun Tian had said.

She wasn't sure if Chu Yunyi really had that kind of thought for Gu Ning. If it was true, the child Gu in Chu Yunyi's body would turn back again, would the people in the Pei family see the clue?

"Your Highness, you are a man of gold, how can you be reprimanded by the people of the Pei family?" Gu Qingqiu shook his head quickly and said, "The people of the Pei family have never known how to save face, you are the prince! If someone else If someone saw it, wouldn’t your reputation be ruined?”

Hearing this, Chu Yunyi shook his head, his attitude remained firm: "Qingqiu, don't worry, I will never leave such a dangerous thing to you alone!"

After all, he led Gu Qingqiu and was about to go outside.

Gu Qingqiu's face was livid, but when Chu Yunyi turned around, she still showed a gentle smile, and when she reached the door of Pei's residence, her face almost froze with laughter.

"Remember, you must not let His Highness see Gu Ning later!" Gu Qingqiu gritted his teeth and told Ban Xia beside him.

Knowing Gu Qingqiu's worries, Ban Xia nodded immediately: "Don't worry, this servant will lead His Highness to General Pei's bedroom after a while! His Highness will never be allowed to stay in the front hall for a while!"

Gu Qingqiu nodded, but there was still a trace of worry in his eyes.

She took a step ahead of Chu Yunyi and walked to the door of Pei's house.

Unexpectedly, the door of Pei's house, which was still open just now, closed when she was about to lift her foot to walk in. She couldn't dodge in time, and bumped into the hard door.

However, the concierge of the Pei family said confidently: "The county lord has ordered! The princess and the dog are not allowed inside!"

"Bold!" Ban Xia immediately scolded, "Your Pei family are just courtiers! How dare you disrespect the Crown Princess?"

Gu Qingqiu's face was extremely ugly. In front of Chu Yunyi, she had to endure it, trying her best to maintain her gentle image. She rubbed her red nose and said to Chu Yunyi aggrievedly: "Your Highness, You should go back first! There are more and more people around you!"

She was only thinking about Chu Yunyi, and didn't care about her own reputation at all. Chu Yunyi was even more moved, and hurriedly said: "Qingqiu, don't worry, with me here, they dare not embarrass you!"

After finishing speaking, Chu Yunyi said loudly: "This king is here, do you still have to close the door? This king specially brought the century-old ginseng from the East Palace here, just to treat General Pei's illness and wounds." !"

At this time, the door was suddenly opened.

Chu Yunyi had only spoken halfway before his throat was blocked.

It was Chunyu standing at the door.

Chunyu smiled at the two of them: "His Royal Highness is generous! Now the general's injury needs a hundred-year-old ginseng to replenish his vitality! Where is the century-old ginseng?"

Her words made Gu Qingqiu, who had already prepared the draft, unable to speak, so he could only wink at Ban Xia who was on the side.

Banxia sent the brocade box in her hand to Chunyu, Chunyu's movements were extremely fast, and before the three people in front of her could react, she had already completed the two actions from opening the brocade box to closing the brocade box.

Chunyu smiled and said, "His Royal Highness and Princess Concubine are invited to have a cup of tea in the front hall! My county magistrate will come out to entertain you two soon!"

Speaking of this, she explained again: "The eldest princess has passed out because of the injury on the general, and now the entire Pei mansion is the head of the county!"

When Gu Qingqiu heard the name Gu Ning, she immediately became vigilant. She was a step behind Chunyu, leaning into Chu Yunyi's ear and said: "Your Highness, you should go visit General Pei, Ning'er has a grudge against us, you It's a man again, if she finds an opportunity to rely on her, it will be hard to explain, so let me go see her."

Chu Yunyi's impression of Gu Ning was still the same as before. In his heart, Gu Ning was still that stupid idiot who worked so hard to marry him, so he nodded and walked towards Pei Anlin's yard almost quickly.

Chunyu's eyes were full of sarcasm when he saw the two people's secret actions.

At this moment, Gu Qingqiu walked up to Chunyu.

"Miss Chunyu, where is the county master?" Gu Qingqiu asked warmly.

Chunyu had always had a bad mood towards her, and walked forward without saying a word.

But at this moment, Gu Qingqiu who was beside her suddenly let out an "ouch" and fell to the ground.

Chunyu stood where she was, looking at Gu Qingqiu who was only a step away from her, and she was in a battle between heaven and man in her heart—to help, or not to help?

Ban Xia hastily squatted beside Gu Qingqiu, trying hard to help Gu Qingqiu up, but told him that he failed.

She yelled at Chunyu: "Hurry up and help her! If something happens to the Crown Princess, your Pei family will never get away with it!"
