Sweet pet: The queen is delicate and soft

Chapter 71 Gu Nian is in danger

When Ye Bai finally cautiously and furtively landed on the shore, he was sure that there was no trace of the bluebird around.

But Ye Bai didn't dare to let go of the hard-earned fish easily, so he took it to collect firewood and light a fire. He didn't relax completely until the fish was roasted and delivered to Gu Nian's hands.

Seeing Gu Nian eating happily, Xiao Mobai decided to let Ye Bai go.

Xiao Mobai put aside the memorial that Kuai Ma had just been looking at and took a handkerchief to carefully wipe Gu Nian's hands after finishing the grilled fish.

The atmosphere between the two is very warm and harmonious, but they don't know that a conspiracy is quietly approaching...

A few hours ago, Gu Nian was having fun. In a luxurious mansion on the outskirts of Beijing, a hand wearing a jade ring held a letter that had just been received, approached the candle, and burned it.

After burning it, the man wrote a reply and asked the boy to send it away again.

Gu Nian, because he played all afternoon and had a delicious meal, fell asleep in a happy mood with Xiao Mobai's company.

After confirming that Gu Nian was asleep, Xiao Mobai tiptoed out of the palace.

Looking at the evidence that had been neatly arranged on the desk, Xiao Mobai began to read carefully without saying a word.

Ye Zhao did not leave either, and kept standing beside Xiao Mobai, waiting for his master's next order.

Looking at the pieces of evidence about the Shandong governor collected by Ye Zhao in his hand, Xiao Mobai's anger level also increased little by little.

"Presumptuous! He has collected so many bribes in just these two years, so he must have accumulated more money during his years in office than my Daliang treasury!"

Xiao Mobai slammed the document in his hand onto the desk in front of him. Because he left Gu Nian's bedroom, Xiao Mobai didn't worry about waking up Gu Nian and vented his anger to his heart's content.

"More than that, the master only saw the evidence that he accepted bribes, and the evidence that he plundered people's wealth and anointing."

Ye Zhao stood aside. He participated in collecting these evidences. For accuracy, he also verified it himself. Therefore, what is now sent to Xiao Mobai's desk are all conclusive evidence of Gou Weisheng's crime.

Xiao Mobai suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to read the notes on the desk...

"Cough cough."

Gu Nian was awakened by the thick smoke in the room. Only then did she feel that Xiao Mobai's warmth was no longer around her.

In the darkness, Gu Nian could only feel the thick smoke in the room, but could not find the source of the smoke.

She tried to fumble to open the door, but after pulling it several times but it didn't open, Gu Nian realized that the door must have been locked from the outside...

Just an hour ago, Gou Weisheng received a reply from the Eighth Prince.

There is only a simple poem in the letter: "Yan Dan's affairs are not established, and the Qin Emperor's Palace is in vain. Wuyang is ashes, peace and success?"

With just this sentence, Gou Weisheng knew that the Eighth Prince was a warning to him.

If this is the case, then we will never stop doing it! Now that the prince has discovered evidence of his crime, don't blame him for siding with the Eighth Prince.

In the afternoon, he saw with his own eyes how the prince treated the girl. There had been rumors in the capital that the prince was extremely doting on the future princess.

In this case, he will start with this girl first!

After all, although I didn't see too many guards around the prince, since he was on a patrol, he definitely wouldn't bring only girls with him. So Gou Weisheng concluded that it must be difficult to attack the prince.

And killing that girl would be a warning to the prince, who asked him to meddle in his own business.

He had quietly investigated just now, and now the prince was in the study, leaving the girl alone in the palace, which was a good time for him to take action.

What's more, compared to the young and vigorous prince, he believed that the wily eighth prince could win this battle for the throne. Why not take this rare opportunity to express your loyalty to the Eighth Prince!

But he never expected that he not only underestimated the prince's strength, but also underestimated the importance the prince attached to the future princess.

At this moment, Xiao Mobai was only surrounded by Ye Zhao, who was reporting, and the remaining three people were all around Gu Nian's bedroom.

Only when Xiao Mobai was around, the secret guards would stay a little further away in order to avoid hearing something they shouldn't hear.

Because Gou Weisheng used the secret passage in the room to put the thick smoke in the palace, and it was completely dark at the moment, Ye Bai and Ye Mo did not notice the thick smoke in Gu Nian's room.

Gu Nian felt that his body was gradually becoming softer, and secretly guessed in his heart that maybe the thick smoke was mixed with mist.

After guessing like this, Gu Nian knew that she couldn't sit still and wait for death. The person who did it must be trying to do her harm! She had just experienced the last time she was killed, so she must not make Brother Mo Bai so anxious this time.

Gu Nian thought like this, raised the stool in the room with all his strength, and smashed it towards the door.

Gu Nian knew that although Brother Mo Bai was not in the room at this moment, Ye Bai and others must be around the palace. No matter who it was, she would definitely attract their attention if she made this unusual noise.

Sure enough, almost the moment she smashed the stool against the door, Ye Bai's voice came from the door.

"Mother, is it you?"

"It's me, save me."

Gu Nian heard Ye Bai's voice, but because he was about to faint, he only made a little sound in his throat, and Ye Bai didn't hear it at all.

Because he didn't hear Gu Nian's answer, Ye Bai knocked on the door again, the rhythm obviously much faster than before.

"Mother! Are you okay?"

Ye Bai asked again, but still got no response from Gu Nian.

But Ye Bai didn't dare to break in without permission, after all, this was the mistress's palace. Ye Mo, who had witnessed the whole process, flew directly to Xiao Mobai's study without Ye Bai saying anything.

"Master, there was a sudden movement in the mistress's palace, and my subordinates dare not break in."

Ye Mo didn't even knock on the door and went directly into the room to report to Xiao Mobai.

Xiao Mobai didn't even finish listening to Ye Mo's words. He only heard that Gu Nian had a problem and quickly left the study.

When Xiao Mobai pushed open the bedroom door, a thick smoke blew into his face.

Xiao Mobai rushed straight into the palace without taking precautions.

Gu Nian was found lying on the ground not far from the palace door.

The moment his eyes touched Gu Nian who had fallen to the ground, Xiao Mobai's heart was so nervous that it almost stopped. He was very afraid that Gu Nian might not be breathing at this moment.

When he got closer, he realized that Gu Nian had just fainted, so he relaxed a little.

Xiao Mobai hugged Gu Nian and walked out of the smoke-filled room first.
