Chapter 140 The Third Prince Takes Action

Gu Mingxuan's mood was agitated, and after a moment of shock, she immediately walked to the door and wanted to catch up, but the figure she felt familiar with had disappeared.

Gu Mingxuan's heart was full of great disappointment.

"Xiaofeng, have you seen Cousin Qingli?" Gu Mingxuan suddenly turned around, looked at Xiaofeng, and asked.

His Royal Highness King Yong?Xiaofeng was startled, she also hoped that she could see His Highness King Yong, but...

"Miss, this servant knows that you miss His Highness, but Your Highness... If you are like this, His Highness will not feel at ease under the Nine Springs." Xiaofeng comforted in a low voice. After hearing this, Gu Mingxuan's face was dazed. After a long time, she sighed sadly. Because I miss you too much?
Maybe, yes.

Seeing that Gu Mingxuan stopped talking about other things, Xiaofeng hurriedly dragged Gu Mingxuan back to the quiet room. It was still too cold outside, and the young lady's body had not recovered yet, so she had to minimize the wind.

Gu Mingxuan stared blankly at the corner door, then lowered her eyes, and returned to the quiet room. This time, after she sat in the quiet room for a while, a young monk led an old monk over.

He is Master Huikong as they call him.

"I've met Master Huikong." Gu Mingxuan put his hands together, and after meeting with Master Huikong, he quickly explained the purpose of his visit.

She doesn't have much time to avoid others, although Xiaofeng can also let Xiaofeng do it without anyone noticing, but she insists on doing it herself.

It was the only thing she could do.

When Master Huikong heard that Gu Mingxuan was going to light the lantern for Feng Qingli, King Yong, he couldn't help being a little surprised, and looked at Gu Mingxuan with a slightly weird expression, but he agreed.

When he heard that Gu Mingxuan wanted to keep it secret, Huikong's complexion returned to normal. He agreed and took Gu Mingxuan to do it himself. , Master Huikong was really shocked.

I have never seen a little girl who can spend so much money!

However, it also proved her importance and concern for His Royal Highness King Yong. Huikong looked at Gu Mingxuan, nodded slightly, and said: "Nv Tanyue, don't worry, I will definitely not disappoint Nu Tanyue's entrustment."

Gu Mingxuan thanked Master Huikong again. She really didn't have time to watch Master Huikong finish his work, so she had no choice but to leave first and reunite with Gu Mingling and the others.

After staying for a while, Mrs. Sun had already chatted with the acquainted noble ladies who came to the temple together, and the little girls around them were sent out, so as not to let them listen to the lawsuit in the back house.

Gu Mingxuan followed Gu Mingling and the others for a few steps, and found that there were still a lot of people in the temple, especially the Meilin where a few people were going. , I followed slowly behind.

A group of little girls chattered and left first, Gu Mingxuan smiled and slowly hung behind them.

Not long after, those little girls who seldom came out for a walk disappeared. Afterwards, Gu Mingxuan came to a fork in the road. When she was worrying about what to choose, she saw a girl dressed as a maid hurriedly walking at the intersection on the left. Come on, after seeing her, Gu Mingxuan stopped her and asked, "Do you know which road the young ladies from the Gu family of Marquis Shun'an are heading for?"

The little maid lowered her head, as if she was a bit shy and did not dare to look up at Gu Mingxuan. Instead, after saluting respectfully, she said, "Returning to Miss Gu, the other Miss Gu and our lady went up the mountain from this road. They said it was the mountain. There is a very good place to enjoy the plum blossoms, and it is very good to make tea in the pavilion there, so my young lady asked the servants to go back and get a big cloak, so as not to catch the cold for a while."

The little maid immediately explained Gu Mingling's whereabouts and plans clearly. When Gu Mingxuan heard this, she smiled and asked Xiaofeng to reward the little maid with a silver bean. Gu Mingxuan didn't want to join in the fun, so she said to the maid: : "In that case, please send a message to the second wife of Shun'an Hou Mansion for me, and ask the second wife to send some thick clothes up. As for me, I will not go up the mountain because I am not fully recovered. Walk down there."

The little girl was very happy to get the silver beans, she hastily complied with Gu Mingxuan's words, and quickly went to spread the word after resigning.

Gu Mingxuan smiled, thinking of an exquisite and beautiful place that she accidentally discovered when she was in Baoming Temple in her previous life. After pondering for a while, she took Xiaofeng to turn a corner and walked towards the way she came. Afterwards, she turned again at an intersection. past.

There are tall trees on both sides of that intersection. It would be interesting in summer, but in winter, after turning to this side, there are very few people to be seen.

Gu Mingxuan herself was depressed in her previous life, she spent time in Baoming Temple and didn't want to see others, so she turned to this place, but instead she found a place with a beautiful scenery.

After walking through a small path, he walked out of the woods, and his eyes suddenly opened up!
In front of me, there is a long plum grove, plum blossoms are like topaz, and the mountain wind blows, sending bursts of fragrance.

But here, most of the plants are wintersweet, so the fragrance is tangy and intoxicating.

Standing in the plum blossom, overlooking the plum forest, no one disturbs you here, but you can feel the quiet atmosphere of plum blossoms. Gu Mingxuan remembered that there was a pavilion not far in front, so she planned to go there.

However, Xiaofeng stopped Gu Mingxuan and said, "Miss, there is someone in front."

Gu Mingxuan was startled, is there anyone in front?

At this moment, Gu Mingxuan heard a pleasant sound of the piano. Gu Mingxuan stopped, and after listening for a while, she planned to retreat. She wanted to be quiet. Since there were people here, forget about that.

However, deep down in her heart, Gu Mingxuan felt a little lost, as if her things were being taken over by someone.

But in fact, she just discovered this place by accident. If others can discover it, they can come here too.

Slightly melancholy, when Gu Mingxuan was about to retreat, he heard a pleasant male voice from the sound of the piano, and he said, "Since we met, it is fate, I wonder who it is?"

Gu Mingxuan was startled, then turned around and hurried to leave. It was a man, and she felt that she had enough troubles with her, so she didn't plan to spread any bad rumors.

However, Gu Mingxuan always felt that this voice was a bit familiar.

I couldn't help but looked back, and found a man in white embroidered green bamboo brocade clothes turned out of the woods.

He has an elegant appearance, and as he walks, the wind brings the fragrance of plum blossoms around him, making him look more gentle than elegant.

When Gu Mingxuan saw his face, she couldn't help but startled.

It turned out to be him!

She couldn't help but take a deep breath!

This person is still unknown, and he has made great contributions to the third prince's ascension to the throne. However, at the beginning, others did not know it. They only thought that he was just an ordinary staff member next to the third prince, but in fact He is the most vicious and powerful adviser around the Third Prince.

It wasn't until after the third prince ascended the throne that he later became the head of the Tongzheng Envoy, that his other side hidden under the gentle and elegant behavior began to be known to everyone.

Min Qinghe!
It's a waste of a good skin, but it has a vicious heart and a hot hand.

Gu Mingxuan lowered her eyes, saluted, then turned her head and left without making a sound.

In his heart, he was very strange, why is Min Qinghe here?He should be closely following the third prince, but if the third prince is there, it is impossible that there will be no news in this temple--the nobleman is here, and Baoming Temple will also be closed to avoid any accidents.

Then, Gu Mingxuan wanted to laugh a little, this place is not her own, if she can come to Baoming Temple to enjoy the plum blossoms, Min Qinghe is naturally allowed.

But in his heart, he became completely wary of Min Qinghe.

Min Qinghe glanced at Gu Mingxuan who was gradually disappearing in the forest, with an inexplicable smile on his lips, and then said to the third prince who appeared beside him: "Your Highness, Miss Gu is really young Some, when the time comes, I'm afraid His Highness will make up for it."

The third prince also looked at the place where Gu Mingxuan had disappeared, and his complexion was not very good, he said: "What's the matter, anyway, the prince is not short of a woman, so what if he has raised her for a few years."

If he wanted beauties, there were plenty of them, but Gu Mingxuan's status and dowry were what he really needed.

Hearing this, Min Qinghe smiled and bowed to the third prince, and the third prince also glanced at Min Qinghe and said with a smile: "I'll leave everything to Mr. Min... When the time comes, Mr. Min will have to search for it."

He has searched for the dowry of Princess Huaqing many times, but found nothing. This time, when all the things have entered the Third Prince's Mansion, he will ask Mr. Min to lead someone to search for it himself.

Mr. Min is also the number one scholar, but unfortunately he was framed by others, and he was no longer able to take the imperial examination, so he voted under the third prince's sect and became an aide. It took only three years for Mr.

After gaining the trust of the third prince, Mr. Min, with the help of the third prince, did a great thing - he poisoned the entire family of a county magistrate who ruined his family because of a calligraphy, and made the other party accidentally poisoned However, under the intervention of the third prince, the case was quickly closed, and some officials who had doubts about the case also closed their mouths under the hint of others.

Mr. Min gave the third prince a reassurance, which is actually equivalent to a certificate of honor. With such a big deal in the hands of the third prince, it is easy for the third prince to want Mr. Min to die. Even more trustworthy, until now, Mr. Min has become the most trusted counselor around the third prince, bar none.

Mr. Min nodded with a smile and said, "I would like to die for Your Highness."

"There are quite a lot of hidden guards around Gu Mingxuan." The third prince sighed, although it was worse than traveling by himself, but it was enough for pomp. From the side, it proved how much Gu Mingxuan was valued by the Marquis of Shun'an, and how much the former personal guard of Princess Huaqing recognized Gu Mingxuan.

Soon, these things will all become his own, the third prince's heart is extremely hot.

Gu Mingxuan didn't know what the two were talking about. She was in a bad mood just because she met Min Qinghe, so she went back to her room, while Gu Mingling and the others didn't come back until more than an hour later. After the Sun family, Gu Mingling came to thank Gu Mingxuan, saying that if she hadn't ordered someone to send a letter to her mother and sent a cloak, they would have suffered from the cold too.

On the second day, Mrs. Sun went to do morning class. Naturally, Gu Mingling and the others were impatient, but they had to follow suit. Excited to stop.

Gu Mingling also encouraged Gu Mingxuan: "Eldest sister, go up too. The scenery above is very beautiful. When the elder sister stands under the plum blossom tree, how about I draw a small elephant for her?"

Gu Mingxuan was so persuaded by her that she had no choice but to agree, but she was weak and rested halfway.

Gu Mingling and the others went up first.

When Gu Mingxuan rested for a while and was about to continue going up the mountain, she found that there was no one in sight on the mountain road where there would always be people coming and going intermittently.

Gu Mingxuan lowered her eyes, and then squeezed Xiaofeng's hand tightly.

Xiaofeng was also a little nervous.

On the side of the mountain, a figure appeared on the fork road.

Brocade clothes and jade belts, dragons walking and tigers walking, and the majesty is compelling.

It's a pity that these things that make people feel awed or intoxicated, in Gu Mingxuan's eyes, she only feels an indescribable disgust.

It's the third prince!

She lowered her head and saluted with blessings: "I have seen His Highness the Third Prince, please greet His Highness the Third Prince."

"Cousin Xuan, why do you need to be so polite..." The third prince looked at Gu Mingxuan with a smile, as if looking at the dishes on his own plate, and said, "Cousin Xuan is the daughter of Aunt Huaqing, so she naturally has a different relationship than ordinary people, so she should be called Ben." The prince said that the third cousin is the one."

"Your Highness is honorable, and my courtiers dare not make mistakes." Gu Mingxuan lowered her eyes, seemingly respectful but resolutely rejected the words of the third prince. The gaze of the third prince made her feel very uncomfortable, but when the third prince did not do anything, she felt very uncomfortable. Before anything, she could only endure it.

The third prince's expression was a bit gloomy, but this emotion only passed by for a moment. He waved his hand and said indifferently: "We are all a family, why is Cousin Xuan so polite?"

"I don't dare." Gu Mingxuan felt something was wrong in her heart, because she was afraid of the endless things, so when she went out, even if she felt that it was a safe place, there would be hidden guards secretly guarding her. Now, Where have all these people gone?
"My daughter has been out for a long time, and I feel a little unwell, so I will leave first. Please feel free, Your Highness the Third Prince." Gu Mingxuan pursed her lips, and after a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, she bowed to the Third Prince again and said goodbye.

"Wait a minute!" The third prince stretched out his hand and grabbed Gu Mingxuan's arm. He looked at Gu Mingxuan with a half-smile, with a playful look on his face when he saw a prey that fell into a trap and couldn't resist. It seemed that, in his In his eyes, Gu Mingxuan was the prey, and he was a shrewd and powerful hunter.

"Your Highness, Third Prince, please let go of your servant." Gu Mingxuan's heart sank, and her expression also sank. She looked at the Third Prince coldly, and scolded in a low voice.

An angry look flashed across the face of the third prince, and he also looked at Gu Mingxuan coldly, and said, "Why, if cousin Xuan is called Xiao Jiu, she should be called cousin Qingli, and if she calls me the prince, she should be called the third prince. Could it be that cousin Xuan looks down on me? Is it?"

Gu Mingxuan's heart has sunk to the bottom, and her hidden guard has not appeared yet, so it seems that something must have happened.

Needless to say, the person who designed all this must be the Third Prince.

What is he trying to do?
