When Yin Ning and Gu Qingtang walked out of the Shaofu Prison, it was already dark and the moon was dim.
In the alley opposite the Shaofu Prison, several men in black have been lying in wait for a long time.
"Get ready to take action!" The leader, a man in black, ordered in a low voice, "There is a corner ahead. As soon as they turn around, take action. Remember to be gentle with the prince consort, and don't hurt the princess."
"Yes!"
"Huh?" Gu Qingtang stopped suddenly. She glanced around the corner subconsciously, "It's strange. I remember there was an old lady selling lotus candy here on weekdays."
"Lotus candy?" Yin Ning glanced at Gu Qingtang, "Is it as delicious as the one in the palace?"
Gu Qingtang nodded and smiled: "This folk food is definitely more delicious than the palace food, especially these snacks." After saying that, Gu Qingtang looked back at the door of the Young Mansion Prison, "Let's wait here first. Xiao Xi, wait for her to drive the carriage, and we can go home quickly."
On the eaves, the man in black glanced around and whispered: "What should I do, boss? They suddenly stopped leaving?"
"What else can we do? Just do it! Otherwise, if the lady blames you, there will be nothing good for you and me to eat!"
"Then..."
"Do it!"
"Who?!" Gu Qingtang heard something moving on the eaves, and quickly protected the little princess behind him, staring warily at the four black figures jumping down from the eaves, "What do you want to do?"
"Hit him!"
Huh? You obviously didn't provoke anyone?
Gu Qingtang felt a chill in his heart, and instantly understood that the target of these four men in black was her, "Slow! Slow! Slow!"
"Don't listen to the consort, do it!"
"You actually know who I am?!" Gu Qingtang straightened his back and shouted, "You know who I am and you still dare to do it, are you all tired of living?"
Yin Ning pinched Gu Qingtang at this moment, "You deserve it because you have done so many things. Look, retribution has come, right?"
Gu Qingtang smiled bitterly, "Don't be afraid, An Ning, I think I can win...hiss..." Gu Qingtang blocked the man in black's fist with his backhand, feeling his arm numb from the shock, and couldn't help but take a breath , had to shout seriously, "You guys are serious! You forced me to do this!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qingtang started to take action. He waved his fists and blocked the attacks of the men in black from left to right. Instead of being at a disadvantage, he gradually gained the upper hand.
Yin Ning was so excited that he rolled up his sleeves, made left and right hook gestures on the side, and shouted: "Behind! Behind you! Gu Qingtang, be careful behind you!"
"Hiss——!" Gu Qingtang took a wrong step to avoid it, only to feel his waist flashing. He couldn't help but sucked in a breath, and pain spread from his waist.
"Boss, what a great opportunity!" One of the men in black winked, and the man in black hit Gu Qingtang's chest mercilessly.
"Tsk, tsk! You are such hooligans!" Gu Qingtang hurriedly avoided it. He really didn't want to fight with these people any longer. He looked back at Yin Ning and said, "Princess, please leave quickly. Our thirty-sixth plan is to move away!" ”
"What a joke, how could I do such a useless thing as running away!"
"You...really insist on forcing me to show off my power!" Gu Qingtang sighed. This time, she was ready to fight these people, "Aning, watch out!"
This time Gu Qingtang was serious. The four men in black finally knew that in addition to his great brains, Gu Shaofu was also not weak in Kung Fu and boxing. He was even...much better than them!
Sure enough, in just a few blows, Gu Qingtang easily defeated the four men in black.
"Consort, be careful!"
Just as Gu Qingtang was about to bend down and pull away the black scarf on the face of one of the men in black, he heard a familiar voice and a strong man wearing a bamboo hat emerged from the corner.
"Sure enough... I still provoked this guy..." Gu Qingtang secretly screamed something bad and kicked the man in black on the ground a few times, "Get out of here! I didn't see my shadow guard coming. I can tell you that if you fall into his hands, it will be a thousand times worse than death!"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" The man in black rolled and crawled on the ground and gradually ran away.
Gu Qingtang quickly waved his hand and said: "I'm fine now, please step back!" With that, he gave Qin Zhongyu, a man in a bamboo hat, a wink, signaling him to leave quickly so that the princess wouldn't see clearly. Something happened. It's not time to let the princess know yet.
"Yes!"
"Slow down!" Yin Ning stopped Qin Zhongyu first. She glared at Gu Qingtang sideways, "You can clearly beat those people, but you still let me escape? Tell me, how many things have you hidden from me?"
"Princess, the consort is actually..."
"Stop talking! Get out of here!" Gu Qingtang looked around cautiously. Although there was no one here, she was still worried that Qin Zhongyu would be recognized.
This was the first time that Yin Ning saw Gu Qingtang looking so nervous. She walked around Qin Zhongyu, raised her head and took a closer look at his face, and exclaimed: "Master Shadow Guard, you seem to have lost your beard? ”
"Ah!" Qin Zhongyu pressed the beard on his face in panic, turned around and bowed apologetically to Gu Qingtang, "I...I'm just worried that you, my consort, will be bullied...I obviously had a good time when I went out. of..."
"Wait, why is your voice so familiar?" Yin Ning looked at him carefully again and suddenly said, "I remember, you were the assassin of the Prince Consort's house that day!" After thinking about it again, Yin Ning Ning discovered another thing, "You guys are in the same group. In other words, the night Gu Qingtang ran into the room to protect me was all a show by the two of you!" After saying that, Yin Ning glared fiercely. Turning to Gu Qingtang, "Gu Qingtang, you are so brave!"
"I...I was wronged!" Gu Qingtang really felt that she was wronged this time. She really broke into her room unintentionally that night, and even more unintentionally saw the pair of Yingying spring peaches that she still can't forget.
Qin Zhongyu hurriedly took off his bamboo hat and bowed to Yin Ning, "Princess, the general really wanted to assassinate the consort that night, and he really did not collude with the consort to tease Her Highness the Princess." As he said that, he knelt down. Coming down, he raised his head and said to Yin Ning, "Your Highness, Princess, do you still remember the last general?"
Yin Ning looked at Qin Zhongyu carefully again, and a person gradually emerged in his mind, and exclaimed: "You are... you are... Cavalry General Lin... Qin..."
"Shh..." Qin Zhongyu quickly signaled the princess not to say it. He bowed respectfully to Gu Qingtang, "If it weren't for the prince-in-law, I'm afraid I would be a ghost in hell."
"Gu Qingtang, I remember that my father ordered you to deliver poisoned wine to General Qin's mansion. Why..." Yin Ning looked at Gu Qingtang in disbelief, "You...what on earth...are you... …Who?”
My heartbeat suddenly became joyful.
If Gu Qingtang is really not a sycophant, then he has been wrongly blamed these days.
A touch of inexplicable joy surged into her heart, and Yin Ning couldn't help but raise her lips, "Don't be afraid, Prince Consort, just tell me!"
Gu Qingtang shook his head seriously and said, "Rong Qingtang, go back and talk to you slowly, okay?" After saying that, Gu Qingtang said anxiously to Qin Zhongyu, "Go back quickly, if your identity is exposed, My little life will be paid in minutes."
"Yes!" Qin Zhongyu quickly flew up to the corner of the eaves and disappeared from Yin Ning's sight.
"Aning, let's go home first." Gu Qingtang rubbed his temples and stepped forward to hold Yin Ning's hand. "I'll tell you slowly tonight, okay?"
Yin Ning held Gu Qingtang's hand tightly and smiled at Gu Qingtang, "Tonight...I will make an exception and call you into the palace to serve..." After saying that, Yin Ning warned again, "Say it first! You sleep under the bed. , I’m sleeping on the bed! Don’t take this opportunity to belittle me!”
Gu Qingtang nodded, smiled, and murmured, "It's okay...under the bed...haha..."
Yin Ning caught a glimpse of the evil smile on Gu Qingtang's face, and immediately her face turned red, "Gu Qingtang, the bad water in your stomach has begun to overflow again, isn't it? Look for a fight!" With that, he raised his fist to fight. Come and fight Gu Qingtang.
Gu Qingtang stepped aside and said with a smile: "Princess, have mercy! Have mercy!"
"You! Stop!" Yin Ning was not reconciled to not being hit by a single punch, and immediately stamped his feet and shouted, "Gu Qingtang, I don't believe I can't hit you tonight!"
Gu Qingtang grabbed Yin Ning's pink fist, winked at Yin Ning, and said with a smile, "If the princess is very angry, Qingtang has a way to calm her down."
"Oh?"
"Come!"
Gu Qingtang suddenly carried Yin Ning on his back and looked at the road ahead with a smile, "Xiao Xi is really too slow, why not let Qingtang be An Ning's horse and carry you home."
"Aren't you... afraid that people will laugh at you?"
"As long as the princess is not shy, the joke will be a joke!"
Gu Qingtang smiled openly and walked towards the Prince Consort’s Mansion with Yin Ning on his back——
Yin Ning smiled slightly, couldn't help but hugged Gu Qingtang's neck, and gently leaned on Gu Qingtang's shoulder.
The faint body fragrance from the Prince Consort penetrated into her nose. Yin Ning looked sideways at Gu Qingtang's cheek. Maybe in those days she always felt that the Prince Consort was disgusting, so she didn't take a second look at him. Now she calmed down and took a closer look. On the Prince Consort's face, he actually felt that this man's skin was extremely supple and tender, much whiter and tenderer than those of ordinary men.
If the prince-in-law was a woman, she would be considered a beauty who would conquer the entire country...
This thought suddenly appeared in his mind. Yin Ning quickly stopped it and subconsciously tightened his arms. A sentence that had been dusted for many years rang in his mind.
"Can't I love you or miss you?"
Under the envious eyes of the people on the street, Yin Ning suddenly felt so cold that he couldn't help but shiver.
"A Ning..." At the entrance of the alley, a black figure punched the wall hard and called out hoarsely, "I can do anything for you that Gu Qingtang can do, but you and I will always do it for you." It’s too late, isn’t it?”
"Subordinate..."
"Useless things!" The black shadow turned around and scolded the four embarrassed men in black, "When did Gu Qingtang raise a shadow guard? You go and investigate carefully. If you can't handle this matter again, , you don’t have to come back!”
"Yes!"
