Chapter 252 Progress
When camping the next day, Gu Mingshu went to the stream to tidy up her appearance, and Ruan Meiniang followed by handing out a towel and wrapping her cloak.

Gu Mingshu smiled and said: "If I were a man, I would also like to marry a considerate, capable and good-looking girl like you. Qin Yue doesn't know how lucky he is."

Ruan Meiniang was startled when she heard the words, her desire to survive immediately came up.

"For the prince, only you are his blessing. If you are by his side, he is considered to be in the blessing. A slave is not worthy. Other women besides you are not worthy either."

"Tsk," Gu Mingshu trembled for a moment, then raised his arm to show her: "Look, give me goosebumps on this arm."

Ruan Meiniang pretended not to understand: "Perhaps it's cool by the stream, so I tied a cape for you."

Gu Mingshu has something to explore today, so how can she be fooled.

She found a brook stone and sat down, took out the "letter from home" she received yesterday from her arms, put it on her lap, and patted it repeatedly.

"You said that you married Qin Yue in the past for the sake of your future. I believe it. No matter from the Zuichun Tower to the Hailing Palace, or from the subjugated princess to the side concubine of the powerful prince, this is a kind of progress. But you always A subjugated princess with her own power and a generous dowry is really too modest to say that she is not worthy of Qin Yue."

Ruan Meiniang's pupils shrank slightly, it turned out that those military maids were busy flying pigeons recently, they were checking her!

Her gaze fell on the letter on Gu Mingshu's lap again, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

"You offered treasures and suggestions, and you cried and begged to follow me. Before I make a decision, I must know that you are following me." As he spoke, Gu Mingshu waved the letter at her: "Do you mind?"

Ruan Meiniang quickly adjusted her mood and smiled brightly: "Your Excellency is willing to understand Nu, I am very happy. If you have anything else you want to know, why don't you just ask Nu."

"What's your real name?" Gu Mingshu smiled at Yanyan, as if she didn't need her to answer: "The blood of the Moon Worshiping Court should be named Mu, right?"

Ruan Meiniang shook her head: "I'm not of the blood of Emperor Baiyue, and my surname is not Mu. Now I use my real name."

However, Gu Mingshu said firmly: "If you don't have a surname of Mu, but you can fish under the banner of a subjugated princess, then you should be someone with a lot of connections."

Ruan Meiniang pondered: "Although I want to be honest, this question involves the secrets of the old master, so I can't talk about it." She cautiously probed: "My lord, you don't want me to be a big mouth who talks about everything, right?"

"Well, it makes sense." Gu Mingshu rested her chin on one hand and looked at her leisurely, "But I want to know your footsteps, so I can't avoid involving your old master. If there are secrets of your old master everywhere, I still ask what?"

Ruan Meiniang looked at the guarded maidservants in the distance, and then at the envelope on Gu Mingshu's lap, knowing that she was going to get to the bottom of it today.

She sighed, and said as if resigned to her fate: "The slave says so."

"Nu was born to be Princess Wanwan's shadow guard. After the collapse of the Full Moon City, the royal blood has been hunted down by the rebels. Later, there was no way to escape. In order to protect the last blood of the royal family, the Jingu let Nu Yirong become the princess's son. Look, lead the pursuers away."

"Nu Xunsi, it's dead to follow the princess. If you change into a princess, you have more hope of living with some hidden guards with high martial arts skills, so you took this job." Ruan Meiniang said.

Gu Mingshu smiled and said, "It seems that you made the right bet."

"Yes, I got the support from the old master, and came to Dazhao together with everyone. After entering Beijing, I went to Zuichun Tower, and finally lived a life without hiding in Tibet." Speaking of this, Ruan Meiniang raised her eyes and apologized to Gu Mingshu With a smile: "You will know everything after that."

The time when Ruan Meiniang rose to fame in Zuichun Tower was indeed about the same time as when Gu Mingshu returned to Beijing from the frontier, and then the two of them took care of Qin Yue overtly and secretly.

Recalling the stupid things he did back then, Gu Mingshu was a little embarrassed, but she was not caught by such petty emotions.

She nodded in the old spirit: "Well, it's not very different from what I understand. But there is one thing I'm curious about."

"Back then you were fishing in the Drunken Spring Building under the banner of the princess of the previous dynasty, and you should have caught Duan Wang Qin Song who needed your money and power to increase your chances of winning the throne. In this way, Duan Wang will achieve great things in the future, and you will become a concubine. Only by maximizing the benefits. Why did you end up in Prince Hailing's mansion instead?"

After a pause, her eyes sharpened: "You choose Qin Yue over him, do you think Qin Yue has the possibility of rebellion?"

Ruan Meiniang's eyes flickered slightly, and she lowered her eyes and said: "At that time, His Royal Highness Duan Wang was a person who loved his wife like his life, so it was impossible to accept me, but the prince was trusted by him very much, so I entered the Hailing Palace."

Gu Mingshu recalled the oil that Qin Song poured out on her way of chasing people back then, and sneered with a "huh": "I'm afraid it's more than that."

Ruan Meiniang was also straightforward, nodded and said: "Yes. His Royal Highness Duan wanted to use the power behind my identity, but he didn't want to take risks. He was afraid that something would happen and my 'identity' would be exposed and become a stain on him. Before anything happened, the relationship between the two of them turned upside down."

Gu Mingshu said indifferently: "In the royal family, there have been a lot of brothers fighting against each other. What's so strange about a pair of cousins ​​turning their faces? You said you didn't expect it, but it seems to be covering up something."

Ruan Meiniang: ...

Gu Mingshu waved his hand: "Forget it, I'm not interested in what you're covering up. The last question - when I first fell in love with Qin Yue, you didn't show any sign of me at all. Is it the meaning of King Duan or your old master?"

Ruan Meiniang didn't even think about it: "It's His Royal Highness Duan's intention. At that time, he wanted to help the prince regain his military power and work in the court, so that he himself can be counted as a reliance in the military."

"He wants to push Qin Yue back to take over the military power. Is this power intended to be taken from the Gu family?" Gu Mingshu's expression was calm, and his tone was a little cold.

Ruan Meiniang said: "I don't understand these things, but at a banquet, His Royal Highness Duan Wang did complain that the Gu family held a large army but refused to enter. Everyone was old and stubborn. He also said that it would be easy to dismount the Gu family, because His Majesty is narrow-minded. .”

Gu Mingshu: "Qin Song wanted to sell Qin Yue a favor, and he also wanted to have military power after selling the favor. But I fell in love with Qin Yue and chased after him fiercely. Qin Song was worried that after I chased him, Qin Yue Being reinstated through Gu's family, he directly entered the neutral camp and did not participate in his plan to seize the heir apparent. That's why you made all kinds of criticisms and slanders against me, blocking me and Qin Yue. "

"Indeed." Ruan Meiniang said.

"Back then, after Qin Yue and I were married, Qin Yue was attacked when he went out of Beijing to relax, and I was injured for saving him. You took advantage of my injury and killed me, and then pretended to take the credit for saving people, so that he made up his mind to marry Are you also an order from King Duan?"

Ruan Meiniang was not surprised that she remembered the past, so she immediately admitted: "Yes."

"Lie." Gu Mingshu mercilessly exposed her: "If you marry Qin Yue, it is really for the benefit of Qin Song, and keeping a distance from Qin Yue is what you should do. Even, the child that Hong'er was pregnant with back then , should also grow in your stomach. Otherwise, why would Qin Song think that you are loyal to him?"

"Your goal from the beginning was Qin Yue. Qin Song helped you deal with me. He really didn't want to see Qin Yue get along with the Gu family in harmony. It might be true that he let you enter the Hailing Palace for the sake of keeping you safe. But you guys The target is Qin Song, this is an absolute lie."

"Then the question is, what exactly do you want from Qin Yue?"
