Chapter 21
Gu Qing woke up.

The strong will that has been tempered by years of crisis and assassination enables him to maintain vigilance and instinct beyond ordinary people no matter if he is sick or seriously injured.

He sat up and looked down. Someone had wrapped a bandage on his chest, ointment for promoting blood circulation and removing stasis had been applied to his wrist, and his leg injury had also been immobilized.

It seems that last night was not in vain.

After being in a coma for two days, the careful handling and bandaging of his body showed that he was well taken care of.

Gu Qing raised her hand, with her five fingers spread out and held tightly, the palm seemed to still have the warmth of the girl's wrist, the soft touch made her palm a little itchy.He vaguely remembered that he was in a coma, mistook the woman for an enemy, and almost hurt her out of instinct.

Fortunately, no flaws were exposed.

Looking at the entire Changyuan, there is no better hiding place than the General's Mansion.Her eyes recognized her, but how many times did she save herself?Although it was dangerous, it was far more convenient to be by her side than to be outside, so we had to find a way to stay.

From the corner of the eye, I caught a glimpse of the well-fed kitten, lying comfortably in the quilt, Gu Qing's eyes were deep.

But before that, he had more important things to do.

Gu Qingyun died, and the county prince's mansion was wiped out. Presumably, the man in the palace has found Shui Yuntian by this time...

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed across Gu Qing's eyes, she propped herself up on the bed, limped around the sleeping attendant on the floor, and left through the back door with a hard mark.

On the way, a figure flashed across the rockery and hid in the rockery, avoiding patrols, climbed over the wall and landed, his complexion suddenly turned pale after finally recovering, and "uh" spit out a mouthful of blood.

I saw him calmly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, as if he didn't feel any pain, walked under a tree, raised his finger and whistled.

It didn't take long to hear wings flying across the sky, and a gray falcon with a message came from the moonlight and landed firmly on his arm.

The night is like a thick inkstone, so deep that it cannot be melted, Zhang Yuan is sleeping in silence.

She didn't see her father all day, subconsciously she thought of the case of the county prince's mansion.

Lying on the bed, she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, and sent troops to surround Shuiyuntian, the tragedy of the county palace.Shen Ange couldn't figure out how this had anything to do with Gu Qing.

There were more and more thoughts in her mind, which disturbed her so much that she was extremely irritable. With an "oops", Shen Ange gave up thinking about these messy things.

"What does he do to me?"

Only then did Shen Ange calm down and gradually fell asleep.

In the direction of Yong'an Street, in a luxurious carriage, a man in a yellow robe took a cup and drank it down, and then a very faint voice sounded.

"General Shen, Liu Yushi, thank you for your hard work. I will accompany Gu to investigate the case."

When the two heard this, they clasped their hands together and said: "Your Highness is sympathetic to the people, and has worked tirelessly to get rid of this disaster. It is His Highness who has worked so hard. I will definitely assist His Highness."

A muffled smile came from the carriage.

After lunch, Shen Nantian was about to dispatch troops, but he met Gu Chong who came with an imperial decree, saying that he asked the emperor to handle the matter on behalf of the emperor. Although Shen Nantian felt a little strange, he had to obey, so he came With this scene now.

A subordinate came out of Shui Yuntian and said: "My lord, all investigations have been completed, and all the people are detained in the front yard. Do you want to examine them one by one?"

Shen Nantian turned around and reported: "Your Highness, the investigation has been completed, do you want to arrest them all?"

At this time, the people in the carriage were ups and downs. When the curtain was lifted, the guard immediately bowed and knelt in front of the carriage, waiting for the man to step off the carriage.

"Let's go and have a look."

Two long rows of guards held torches in their hands, illuminating Shuiyuntianjia Alley brightly.

When the man entered the front yard, the attendants immediately brought chairs for him to sit on. Now as long as the man speaks, he can take them all back to the Yamen.

Shen Nantian and Liu Yushi stood by each other, they couldn't understand what the prince in front of him meant.

Gu Chong glanced from left to right, and looked at it carefully again, then lowered his eyes, and said calmly: "Check it out, don't miss any corner, all suspects without household registration will be detained."

After he finished speaking, he got up and walked out, walked out of Shuiyuntian with the guards clearing the way, and the flattering attendant who drove over hurriedly greeted him, "Your Highness, you have worked hard."

As soon as he got into the car, and as soon as General Shen and Liu Yushi took him out of custody, a fire broke out in Shuiyuntian. The fire was so fierce that before he had time to react, it surrounded the whole Shuiyuntian with the gauze curtains of the house.

There are also some things that are extremely easy to ignite. Although people were immediately arranged to put out the fire, it was of no use, and what should be burned has already been burned.

In the panic of fighting the fire, the black shadow on the roof in the distance escaped in an instant.

The waning moon in the sky was reddened by the overwhelming flames.

Shen Ange was awakened by the noise of gongs, and her heart sank slightly. She quickly got up and asked, "What happened?"

Yun Zhi hurriedly put on her clothes and said anxiously: "Miss, it seems that there is a fire in the direction of Shui Yuntian. The fire is a bit fierce. Look, the sky over there is red!"

Shen Ange's heart tightened and said: "Go, go out and have a look!"

She put on a cloak and went to bed, walked out of the room to the porch to have a look, black ash was flying all over the sky, she took a piece and twisted it with her hands, it was the ashes of the gauze curtain.

Looking up, the sky in the direction of Yong'an Street was half red.

How could it catch fire?Two fires followed within days.

Shen Ange finally remembered what he had forgotten. In his previous life, Shui Yuntian's destruction was not at this time, but it happened ahead of time.

Only this time, she was still in the majestic General's Mansion, not in the desolate and desolate backyard of her uncle, and she was not tied up.

My own rebirth reversed my marriage and reversed the first turning point in my destiny, but in the end I could only save myself but not others, and it also failed to change the disaster that should have occurred in Changyuan City.

"There have been many bad things in this city this year, two fires in a row, it's really appalling."

Yun Zhi sighed for a while, leaned closer to Shen An and said, "Miss, it's cold in the night, let's not look at it and go back."

Seeing thousands of prosperous and extravagant go up in flames, covering half of the sky, Shen Ange thought of something, and said in a low voice: "Pick up the lantern and go to the backyard."

Not long after, the sleeping attendant heard the sound of pushing the door, rubbed his eyes and said vaguely, "Who is it? It's so late..."

Shen Ange's voice sounded outside the door, "Me."

The attendant woke up in an instant, and quickly got up to open the door for the two people outside.

"Miss, it's so late, you haven't rested yet?"

Shen Ange skipped over the flustered attendants, walked directly to the bed and stood still.

She took the gauze lantern from the handmaid and put it on the table, the dim light covered the bed, hitting Gu Qing's handsome and delicate face, his eyes were still closed, quiet and fragile.

"He...hasn't woken up?" Shen Ange asked.

The attendant didn't dare to say that he was lazy, so he fell asleep after changing the medicine, quickly shook his head and answered: "No, no, the little one has been guarding in the room, and I haven't seen him wake up."

The attendant thought to himself, anyway, he never heard anything, and he was injured like this, so... he shouldn't have woken up, right?
The fire made Shen Ange terrified. Driven by a sense of ominousness, she subconsciously wanted to confirm the relationship with Gu Qing. Seeing him like this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Qing was injured like this, probably because she thought too much.

Looking at his slightly red face, he hesitated for a moment, then reached out to touch Gu Qing's forehead.

I still have a fever, and I don't know if I can survive it.

Gu Qing lay awake, and the kitten he rescued was left unattended, Shen Ange knelt down and stroked it a few times, and said to the attendant, "It's good to take care of it, if there is a problem, you are the only one to ask."

The attendants nodded repeatedly in response to "yes" and sent them out respectfully.

Almost at the same time, the attendants sent Shen Ange out, and the boy woke up on the bed.

He raised his hand and gently touched his forehead, as if he was reminiscing about the delicate and soft touch of his forehead just now.

Is this how a woman's hand feels?
In the palace before, when he was beaten half to death by that man, the woman who gave birth to her had never taken care of him like this.

Gu Qing raised a smile, as if he had found something interesting, and there was a feeling of anticipation in his eyes, the days of staying in the general's mansion seemed to be expected.
