In the courtyard, six men in black moved their hands together, and one of them immediately raised his sword to the neck of Huang Fu, who was able to climb onto the carriage frame.

Several mute servants were stunned when they saw this, but they instinctively surrounded the car to resist. Several men in black effortlessly kicked the servants aside. One of the young mute servants also received a scratch on his arm. When a few people saw the blood, they looked around for obstacles and fled towards the door, not caring about the owner of the car.

Gu Lintan placed Chuan'er in the car, patted Su Xi on the shoulder with a sullen face, then quickly stood up and stepped towards the car door, as if he was driving out of the hospital when a few people were unprepared.

Seeing this, a man in black flew up to him and kicked him out of the carriage. Su Xi in the carriage heard the sound and jumped out, her little face turned white with fright. She couldn't care about anything at the moment, so she He ran towards Gu Lintan on the ground.

Among them, the man in black was the leader, approaching Gu Lintan and Su Xi in a few steps, speaking with a thick voice that was obviously deliberately disguised.

"We are following the Lord's order to take this woman and child back. Sir Gu, are you disobeying your order?"

After saying that, he took out an iron token and displayed it in front of Gu Lintan.

The moment Gu Lintan saw the token, his face suddenly turned pale, as expected.

It was the reason why he rushed here in a hurry and sent Suxi mother and son away from the capital at the risk of being discovered - that person knew.

Within a moment, the man in black collected the token and drew his sword towards Su Xi.

Gu Lintan didn't have time to think too much, and subconsciously stretched out his large sleeves to protect Su Xi. Su Xi was frightened and couldn't help shouting in fear: "Tan Lang!!!"

In an instant, there was a huge buzzing sound from the sword's edge. The sword seemed to have been hit by something and flew towards the eaves of the house. It was deeply embedded in the eaves wood.

The next moment, four men dressed as guards entered the courtyard and started fighting with several men in black.

Gu Lintan suddenly raised his head and looked towards the courtyard gate. When he saw Jiang Xue with a look of astonishment on his face, his heart tightened suddenly.

How did she get here so quickly!

Gu Lintan's mind felt like a thunderbolt falling, and he was blank for a moment, but suddenly he felt a little lucky.

That is - Jiang Xue is here!

With Princess Changle here, they would never dare to kill in front of her!

Moreover, Jiang Xue is followed by guards when she goes in and out every day. Her guards are all transferred from the palace to serve in the Gu Mansion. In any case, their skills are several times stronger than those of ordinary guards - not to mention compared to these useless mute servants. !

Gu Lintan quickly looked around and saw that Jiang Xue's men were already fighting with the men in black. He gritted his teeth and shouted in the direction of Jiang Xue: "Your Highness the Princess!!!"

When Huang Fu saw this, he cried bitterly and stumbled towards Jiang Xue, shouting as he climbed: "Your Highness! Your Highness, help!"

Several men in black glanced at each other upon hearing the sound, and seemed to realize that there was no way they could gain the upper hand from Jiang Xue's guards. They heard the leader shout "Back off!" and they quickly flew over. The eaves are hidden in the woods behind the yard.

Seeing that the "killer" had retreated, Gu Lintan quickly raised his eyes to look at Jiang Xue at the courtyard gate.

He quickly made up a story in his mind and planned to explain it to Jiang Xue.

Several Wu Anlang showed no intention of fighting. They all retreated behind Jiang Xue and looked around cautiously.

Jiang Xue had a look of disbelief on her face and said in a trembling voice:

"Consort, she——"

She stretched out her hand and pointed at Su Xi, her fingers trembling slightly.

"What did she call you just now?"

Gu Lintan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Just then, Suxi called him "tanlang" in fear. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xue also heard him.

The rhetoric he had originally prepared was no longer vulnerable.

Seeing that he was silent, Jiang Xue had a thought in her mind, and suddenly tears like raindrops fell down from her pale little face.

"I didn't expect it to be true!"

"You really hid it from me, outside, with people -"

Jiang Xue roared, and the last words seemed to be too angry to speak. Her body trembled in response, as if she was extremely angry and in pain.

Lu Qiong was hiding in a tree, taking a handful of melon seeds from somewhere in her hand, chewing them and marveling at them.

"Wow," she gave Jing Ye a look, "When did my cousin become so good at acting? If I didn't know the truth, I would probably think that she was a poor little lady who was deceived by her husband and just found out about it. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it’s too miserable.”

"You don't know?" Jing Ye said calmly, but his eyes kept looking in Jiang Xue's direction, "She is used to doing this."

Lu Qiongshuang glared at him with contempt and muttered: "It sounds like you are very familiar with my cousin. This is my cousin! I have never seen her like this."

Jing Ye still didn't turn to look at her, and just said coldly: "Shut up."

Lu Qiongshuang consciously closed her mouth. After the baptism of her last experience, she already knew how ruthless Jing Ye was to her junior sister.

It's not that she's a coward, Master said that those who understand current affairs are heroes.

She curled her lips and turned to look at Jiang Xue's yard.

In the courtyard, Jiang Xue had already walked up to Gu Lintan and Su Xi. Huang Fu was panicking and wanted to step forward to explain something to them, but suddenly he heard the cry of a child in the car.

"Aniang, I want Aniang!"

Jiang Xue turned her head to look at the carriage with a face full of disbelief, her red lips slightly opened, and she was stunned in place.

When Gu Lintan saw this, he quickly made a choice in his mind.

He could only take a gamble.

The current situation is that the person already knows that he deliberately concealed it, and just as he guessed, if he knows the existence of Suxi mother and son, he will definitely take the person away and use it as a chess piece to manipulate him.

In terms of strength, the people he currently raises in private are far from being able to compete with that force.

As for Jiang Xue, she relies on the entire Daji royal family. The royal family has the most elite and reliable military force in Hebei. As long as Xunxi mother and son can enter the Gu mansion——

The situation is already at its worst, and this choice may be the only chance for Su Xi and her son to have a chance to survive!

Gu Lintan thought about it and immediately got up from the ground, knelt straight and kowtowed to Jiang Xue.

Seeing this, Su Xi imitated Gu Lintan's example and knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly, with tears streaming down her face.

When Jiang Xue spoke, her voice was hollow, making people feel that she was already heartbroken and weak.

"Can you, Prince Consort, give me an explanation?"

Gu Lintan rested his head on the ground, closed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please forgive Lintan for the sin of ten thousand deaths!"

"This girl was Lin Tan's romantic partner a few years ago."

Su Xi, who also knelt on the ground, couldn't hide her heartache after hearing this, but she could only bite her lips tightly and try to suppress the sobs at the bottom of her throat.

"Fair love?" Jiang Xue's voice was mocking, and when she opened her mouth again, there was a broken and choked voice, "Since the consort has already been in love for a long time, why did he agree to the marriage granted by the father? The father is kind, as long as you I must make it clear that I will never force this marriage on you!"

"It's not what I want in my heart," Gu Lintan raised his head, his eyes filled with tears. "Years ago, I left Hedong alone and went to Linzhou to study, just to win the chance to return to Linzhou in seclusion. Mr. Fu, the deceased sect, once gave me some advice."

"But I was born in poverty, and I didn't have much money. I even encountered bandits on the road and robbed me of all my money."

"I had no clothes to cover my body and no food to eat. I traveled for several days and almost died of illness. It happened that Suxi girl went out and met my dying man. She took him home and treated me with mountain herbs before I could return to him. life."

"Tsk." On the tree, Lu Qiongshuang tilted her head and looked at Jing Ye, showing a look of disdain that she couldn't bear to listen, and said, "Why does this story sound so familiar to me?"
