After seeing off Mrs. Gu, it was getting late and she had to comb her hair early tomorrow morning. Xinghong made a bed for Gu Xiyan and Huilan back to the wing where they lived.

Duan Yingluo was wearing a light yellow underwear, and closed her eyes and meditated on the couch with her legs crossed.

This is her compulsory homework every day, and it is said that she can clear the spirit and qi.

Gu Xiyan looked at Duan Yingluo's peaceful and quiet expression, and couldn't help but think of Guanyin's image of picking flowers.

Wang Guowei once said that there are three major realms of knowledge. The last level is "I searched for him in the crowd for thousands of times, and suddenly, the man was in the dim light."

Gu Xiyan felt that Duan Yingluo seemed to have reached this level, and was calm in his actions, giving people a sudden feeling of enlightenment.

She was looking at Duan Yingluo and sighing in a daze. Duan Yingluo suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were calm and calm, and she smiled and said, "Are you worried about tomorrow?"

I'm a little worried!

Gu Xiyan nodded.

Duan Yingluo smiled: "It depends on people, and it depends on heaven!"

Gu Xiyan sighed helplessly: "Best we can leave the city tomorrow with our sword."

Duan Yingluo smiled and showed her snow-white and neat teeth: "Do you think the Yulin Army, the Imperial Guards, and the Jinwu Army in Shengjing are all idle food?"

Gu Xiyan couldn't help but mutter in her heart: Why did Qi Maosheng get in?

Duan Yingluo seemed to see her thoughts, and her expression was dim: "Seven Olds Yunze, Lian Yun Shisan Swords, Liuye Double Swords... Many people couldn't go back to Yandi!"

Gu Xiyan was moved.

Duan Yingluo's eyebrows gradually became Qi Wan: "It's okay for those disciples who have made a name for themselves in the world. Those who have not yet left the school have lost the protection of their elders and will become robbers or thieves..."

Is this blaming Qi Maosheng?

Gu Xiyan pursed her lips and said, "They can join the army! With all their skills, will they be able to play their strengths better when they serve in the army..."

Duan Yingluo smiled and stared at Gu Xiyan for a long time.

Although she could feel no malice, Gu Xiyan was still a little uncomfortable when she saw it and said, "Did I say something wrong?"

Duan Yingluo smiled and shook his head: "No, you said nothing wrong."

She looked at Gu Xiyan's face as pure as a lotus and smiled calmly: "Miss, let's take a break early. After leaving the mansion, there is no such convenience outside."

Gu Xiyan also felt that this topic should not be discussed any further. She pulled a thin quilt to cover her body and smiled pretty: "Good night!"

Duan Yingluo nodded with a smile.

Gu Xiyan turned over and her breathing slowly became stable.

Duan Yingluo looked at the graceful body in the Qingsha tent and slowly closed his eyes.

Miss Gu Er, you are not wrong. That's why I am here to protect your safety and exchange your safety for the future of our 500 disciples under the Shura Sect. If things are really bad, I will do it too...

Duan Yingluo slowly calmed down the distracting thoughts in his heart and quietly waited for tomorrow's arrival!

*******

The moonlight rose little by little, and Wuyuan was shrouded in silver. The noisy laughter with silk and bamboo strings and strings came from the outer courtyard on the east side, which further set off the tranquility of the small corner of the inner courtyard.

Duan Yingluo, who was smiling like Guanyin, suddenly opened her eyes, and her eyes clearly distinguished from black and white were as sharp as an eagle.

She heard a very familiar slight trampling sound.

Only those who have learned light skills have such light steps.

Duan Yingluo knew everyone around Gu Xiyan, and no one had such skills.

The sound gradually approached and stopped outside the door.

Duan Yingluo did not dare to be careless and gently sucked a sweat towel from his waist.

The silver-red sweat towel reflects colorful needles like gems in the moonlight.

The person hesitated for a moment, and the footsteps gradually turned one aspect and walked towards the wing room to the east.

Huilan and Xinghong live there.

Duan Yingluo looked at Gu Xiyan hesitantly.

The moon was as bright as a training, Gu Xiyan's mouth was slightly raised and she was sleeping soundly, and her white face was as sweet and pure as a flash of cereal that bloomed quietly at midnight.

A soft knock came from the east wing, and a woman's voice was also mixed: "Huilan, open the door quickly."

Soon, a light clattering sound came from the east wing.

Although the sound is slight, it is very clear to the ears of experts like Duan Yingluo.

Duan Yingluo raised his ears.

When the door of the east wing opened with a creaking sound, Duan Yingluo also took advantage of the sound to open a gap in the window frame.

There was no light in the east wing room. Taking advantage of the moonlight, she saw a black figure flashing into the east wing room.

Tomorrow is the day when Huilan married on behalf of others. Things are too sudden and too weird.

Duan Yingluo did not hesitate, and his body was as light as a swallow, and he leaned against the skirt of the east wing wall. She looked sideways, and under the bright moonlight, she could clearly see the movements in Gu Xiyan's house through the wide open window lattice.

She breathed gently and adjusted her breath for six times.

All the conversations of the people inside the house were heard.

I heard Huilan say, "...Auntie, I know I'm sorry for your teachings, but please follow Huilan this time for ten years of education?"

A crisp female voice said, "Huilan, do you know that if something happens, they can shun everything on you, saying that the second girl of the Gu family is young and ignorant, and it is all because she is confused by you..."

"I know, I know. But if I give up this opportunity, I will never be able to live the life I want to live." Huilanyu choked with sobs, "Others don't know me, don't you even know me? I followed my aunt from Longzuo to Shengjing, and I don't know how many miserable things happened in the world. I still remember clearly that when we were Gukou, because we didn't even have to eat leaves to dirt, the mother killed her daughter and stewed a pot of soup for her husband and son to eat... Aunt, I don't want one day, my children will also encounter such a fate, and I will do such a thing... Aunt, I beg you, I beg you..."

There was a thumping sound of kowtows in the room.

"Hey!" sighed, "Get up!"

The sound of kowtow disappeared.

"I can't help you," there was a sense of inconsistency in the crisp female voice, "You can walk the road ahead by yourself, I just hope you don't regret it!"

"Auntie," Huilan shouted excitedly, "As long as my aunt knows, I will not be afraid of anyone pointing at my backbone in the future..."

The man who was called Huilan's aunt sighed again, and the room fell into a brief silence.

As long as it does not affect tomorrow's arrangements, don't let her go out of the capital with her sword, Duan Yingluo doesn't want to meddle in other people's business.

She was about to leave, but she heard Huilan say, "Auntie, I have carefully checked Gu Xiyan. She doesn't have the book you mentioned by her side."

Duan Yingluo was stunned and listened to the conversation in the room with breath.

"Are you sure?" Huilan's aunt said in a deep voice, "You have asked her tone."

"I've inquired." Huilan's voice was disdainful, "She didn't seem to know that this was the case. No matter how literary talent is, she is a world of difference than Miss Gu!"

"That book is not in Rongyuezhai nor in the palace," Huilan's aunt murmured, "Is it possible to be with Miss Gu?"

Huilan said, "Auntie, I found something strange."

"Hurry up!" Huilan's aunt said anxiously.

"In February this year, two servants named Gui Guan and Bainian disappeared from Rongyuezhai. Mr. Gu also killed another servant named Shuxiang in Rongyuezhai. At that time, Mr. Gu not only sent a guard to search for him, but also paid 20,000 taels of silver from the tent. It was said that he gave a gang to Shengjing and asked people from the world to come forward to find these two servants... In previous years, people often escaped, and people were often beaten to death, but they never did this. Look at this matter, will it be related to that book!"

There was another silence in the room.

In the room with a wide window lattice opposite, Gu Xiyan turned over and sat up suddenly, her face full of fear, as if she was scared by something.

Duan Yingluo could see clearly through the moonlight and felt anxious.

I wonder if the woman who talks to Huilan has companions?

I am now more than twenty feet away from Gu Xiyan. If Gu Xiyan makes any noise and causes their attention and changes, I am too far away!

Duan Yingluo adjusted his internal breath, and his dantian rushed into the room like lightning, which scared Gu Xiyan, who was awakened by a nightmare, and stayed there. Seeing this, Duan Yingluo swayed in the air, and Gu Xiyan felt a numbness on her neck. She couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that Duan Yingluo's skill was indeed much higher than Ding Cuiniang. Thinking back to the beginning, when Ding Cuiniang pointed her, she pressed her hard with her fingers...

When Duan Yingluo saw Gu Xiyan's face calm, he shook his finger in the air again.

Gu Xiyan blinked at her and was about to speak, but Duan Yingluo put her index finger on her lips and made a silent look. Gu Xiyan looked at her inexplicably.

After all, this is the Gu family's family's business, so let Gu Xiyan solve it himself.

Duan Yingluo hesitated for a moment and possessed Gu Xiyan's ear and whispered.

Gu Xiyan showed a look of surprise.

My aunt? Could it be Cui Baoyi? I really can't tell that she has such a high skill to be able to enter and exit the Forbidden City in the curfew? What kind of book are you looking for? Why don't you come early or late? But Huilan will come tomorrow when she marry into the Zuo Mansion on her behalf?

Gu Xiyan couldn't help but look at the large window frame in confusion.

Will tomorrow's arrangements change?

She was worried, but Duan Yingluo suddenly pounced on her and pressed her on the bed.

Gu Xiyan was shocked and was about to ask why, but she saw Duan Yingluo's body that seemed stiff due to tension. She couldn't help but look at Duan Yingluo's face, but saw her looking outside with sharp eyes. Gu Xiyan turned her head slightly and looked over Duan Yingluo's gaze.

Through the wide open window lattice, Gu Xiyan saw a woman walking out of the east wing.

Her body is slender and has a strong and slim fit. The alloy scabbard sheath sheath exposed on her shoulders emits a cold light in the moonlight.

Gu Xiyan's head buzzed, and long-lasting memories came to her mind.

It was her, it was her, the woman who flirted with things in Rongyuezhai on a stormy night two years ago!

The shadow of the eaves was projected on her face half-light and half-dark, with her snow-white jaws and her lips as bright as petals.

Gu Xiyan is already sure of it.

She is Cui Baoyi!
Chapter completed!
