Chapter 1001 Invitation to Prince Xuan’s Mansion

He first used his internal energy to test it and found the presence of two people in the room downstairs.

Gu Er thought: You can’t run away now.

He carefully lifted the tiles on the roof, thinking that he could see the contact person's face clearly, but he never expected that there was such an erotic scene inside.

There was no one inside whom he was following.

Gu Er: “…”

He immediately realized that the man had left long ago. Perhaps he had noticed that he was being followed, or perhaps they had always been cautious in their actions.

Having lost the person, Gu Er returned to the Gu Mansion dejectedly to report.

"Master, I lost the person!"

At that time, Gu Si was reporting the situation in the study. When he heard Gu Er's apology, he subconsciously wanted to plead for Gu Er.

It's ok for them to just play around on weekdays, but when it comes to serious matters, it's extremely dangerous. This time, all eighteen of their top secret guards were dispatched to carry out the mission, and several of them failed. The master is in a very bad mood.

Now that Gu Er hasn't brought back any useful information, I'm really afraid that the master will take out all his accumulated anger on Gu Er.

Fortunately, although Gu Qingjue was in a bad mood, he did not lose his temper.

"You have worked hard these past few months. Go back and have a good rest. We will have a tough battle to fight next. You must not take it lightly this time."

"Yes, Master."

Gu Er was not happy about escaping punishment. Instead, he regretted that he should have been more careful.

After coming out of the study, Gu Er pulled Gu Si aside to talk.

"This is the first time I've failed in all these years. The opponent was stronger than I expected."

Gu Si nodded: "Indeed, this is the first time we have carried out such a difficult mission. The other party is very cautious and seems to know us well."

Gu Er looked at Gu Si and said, "You mean there is a spy among us? Impossible. We have been brothers through thick and thin for so many years. If there was a spy, I don't know how many times we would have died."

"I'm not saying he's a spy. I mean he knows us very well, or he knows the master very well. It seems like he can accurately predict every move the master makes, and he has thought of a countermeasure in advance."

Gu Si could feel it, and Gu Qingjue's feeling was even more obvious.

Coming out of the ear room and lying on the bed, Gu Qingjue was still wondering who this Xiao Yingsu was.

They must be familiar.

They were so familiar with each other that he didn't even realize the other person's identity.

Fortunately, he also boasts that he can see through people's hearts.

Su Yixin didn't say anything, and dived into Gu Qingjue's arms like a fish: "Don't think about it, go to sleep first, maybe when you wake up tomorrow morning, you will figure out all the things you can't figure out!"

Gu Qingjue has hardly slept these days.

Severe lack of sleep.

Gu Qingjue hugged Su Yixin, smelled her body fragrance, and kissed her forehead: "Madam is right, the world is big, but sleeping is the biggest."

Gu Qingjue fell asleep quickly.

Instead, Su Yixin lost her sleepiness.

He knew what he was busy with these days. It was not that easy to lure Xiao Yingsu out using the military deployment map.

This man is a perfect match for Gu Qingjue.

They are in the open, so they need to be cautious with every step.

Someone who is very familiar with Gu Qingjue and has been lurking for so long, who is that person?
Su Yixin didn't know when she fell asleep. When she woke up in the morning, Gu Qingjue was gone.

The weather is getting colder and colder. This winter is longer than previous years. It looks like it's going to snow, and it's only November. Su Yixin has always asked Su Hui to pay attention to the movements of the Lu Mansion.

After receiving the letter sent by Mrs. Lu San, Lu Gongzhu, who was away on a work trip yesterday, finally came back to attend the funeral.

When Lu Gongzhu came back, he was called into the palace before he had time to change his clothes.

After returning home, they immediately arranged for the burial. Today is the day that Lu Gongbi and his wife will be buried.

The funeral procession was very long, stretching for several miles.

Gu Qingjue and others were also in the funeral procession. He was a colleague who saw Lu Gongbi off for the last time, while Su Yixin was sitting in a teahouse nearby.

She heard that there were rumors recently that Lu Gongbi was murdered, and it first came from this teahouse. She came today to listen to how the story of Lu Gongbi's death was told.

He described it with such detail, as if he had seen it in person.

The rumors have spread so widely, and Lu Gongzhu arranged the burial as soon as he came back. Didn't he do any investigation?

What if it really is poisoning!

Moreover, he died of poisoning. Gu Qingjue said that the coroner had secretly conducted an examination and it was confirmed without a doubt.

What Su Yixin was more curious about was that since Leng Zhongyan was already investigating in secret, how did the rumor spread? Once it spread, wouldn't it alert the enemy and tell Xiao Yingsu that they had begun to suspect Lu Gongbi's death?
Su Yixin really didn't understand the series of operations.

After the funeral procession passed, Su Yixin returned to the mansion. Lian Qiu said that Prince Xuan's Mansion had sent an invitation and that the Princess Xuan's fiftieth birthday party would be held in five days.

Looking at the content of the invitation, Su Yixin sighed: "Time flies so fast, so many years have passed in the blink of an eye!"

Lian Qiu put the invitation away, poured a cup of tea for Su Yixin and brought it over: "It is said that Prince Xuan's Mansion rarely holds banquets. This seems to be the first time."

"Ok?"

Su Yixin asked, "The Prince Xuan's Mansion has never held a banquet?"

Su Yixin really didn’t notice this.

She has been in Kyoto these years, but she has also participated in the sect's training in the meantime. Sometimes she was away for several years, and she didn't know about the banquets in Kyoto during this period.

However, even though she is not here, the invitation should be delivered as usual, and Gu Qingjue will consider whether to attend.

As for the replies to these invitations and the return gifts, Dai Feihe and Lian Qiu were in charge at the time, and Lian Qiu knew the most about it.

"That's right. King Xuan holds a high position and has great power. He was named King Xuan at a young age, but he retired at the right time without fighting or competing. Not only the late emperor, but also the current emperor relies on him very much. The people of Kyoto all say so! King Xuan has such a good reputation, but he never holds a banquet. The first time he held a banquet was for the princess' fiftieth birthday. The two of them are really in love."

"Yes!"

Su Yixin was also very emotional.

Given Zhao Jin's status at that time, he could have married anyone even if he was a princess, but he chose to marry an orphan and doted on her so much that he never took a concubine in his entire life.

In the whole Kyoto, besides her, Xiaodie is the most enviable person.

However, Xiaodie rarely socializes, and the mansion never holds any banquets. She rarely appears in public, so no one mentions her much.

November 7th

It was the fiftieth birthday of Princess Xuan.

Because of Gu Qingjue's relationship with King Xuan, she and Xiaodie also had contacts during the New Year holidays. She also reminded her of the flower-viewing banquet hosted by Xia Xunwei last time.

So Su Yixin went there early.

After arriving at Prince Xuan's mansion, Mu personally took her to the backyard.

Madam Mu: "Princess, you are here really early. But mother has been thinking about you all the time. She will definitely be very happy to see you later."

Su Yixin smiled and said, "I haven't seen her for a while. But why do I smell medicine in the yard?"
