Looking at Gu Qingci's half shy and half angry appearance, mu xuanjing's eyes were slightly bent, and his heart's condensed emotion which had been pressed for a few days immediately disappeared.

Maybe this cat is his fault and weakness, but no matter where he is and what kind of things he meets, as long as he thinks that there is such a corner in his heart, he will soften down in a cold and hard mood, and he just wants to give her his tenderest side.

Soon, the dinner was on the table one by one. Due to the hot weather, there were several cold dishes and dried porridge. Mu xuanjing helped Gu Qingci with a few chopsticks and ordered her to eat hot dishes. "I have asked the doctor. If you are too greedy for cold, you will easily eat bad stomachs."

Gu Qingci slowly drank porridge and turned her mouth away. Anyway, according to the man's recent work intensity, she seldom had a meal with him. If she was restrained, she would be restrained.

After dinner, Liangjiang and her maid cleaned up the table. Gu Qingci looked at mu xuanjing, who was wiping his hands slowly. Holding his chin, he asked, "what's the situation of the witch clan?"

Although he asked, Gu Qingci knew that mu xuanjing could be so busy. It must be very difficult.

Mu xuanjing slightly raised his eyes and said, "there are three grottoes of cunning rabbits. The witch clan has always acted treacherously. What's more, the cold night is more cunning. These days, the king has investigated several witch strongholds, but even the shadow of cold night and Bai Yingxue has not been found."

Gu Qingci wrung his eyebrows anxiously and asked, "I heard that the Wu clan was once a famous clan in ningzhao state. Now ningzhao state has been destroyed, but I didn't expect that the Wu clan has survived to this day."

Mu xuanjing poured a cup of tea for Gu Qingci. Although it was the most common movement, it was still elegant and free. He pushed the tea cup to Gu Qingci.

"In those years, Ning Zhao was destroyed, and the Wu clan retreated. At the first time, they drew a clear line with Ning Zhao and lived in seclusion for nearly 20 years. If they had not started to act in these two years, the world would have forgotten that there were also witches."

Thinking of the prophecies of the sorcerers heard in Tianjian City, and the strange poisonous insects used in the cold night, Gu Qingci was subconsciously tight in his heart. If this was only the tip of the iceberg of the sorcerer, how much more terrible things would there be?

Seeing Gu Qingci's brow locked, mu xuanjing stretched out his slender finger and gently pressed it on her brow, as if to coax a cat and rub her forehead. "No matter what the world is like, as long as you stay by my side obediently."

Gu Qingci felt as if she had been touched by a feather in her heart. She turned her mouth and got up calmly. Half tentatively, she asked, "I don't believe that the king is really not interested in this world?"

How could mu xuanjing hide his position as a sick and weak Prince for many years if he really wanted nothing? And the power in his hands should not be underestimated.

Mu xuanjing took Gu Qingci's wrist and pulled her into his arms with a little effort. He looked at her eyes like an abyss, "what do you want from this king?"

Gu Qingci is stunned. What does she want mu xuanjing to do?

Looking at mu xuanjing's soft and handsome face, Gu Qingci suddenly felt relieved.

If there is no such a specific person, she will have expectations and requirements for her future partner, but when mu xuanjing stands in front of her, many languages are powerless and pale.

When a person is squeezed into her heart, many concrete things are blurred, and only dim vision is left. In fact, no matter what mu xuanjing does, what she wants is to be able to stand side by side with him and face all the things together, so that she can go on hand in hand.

Like the most trusted comrades in arms, the friendship is deeper and stronger than this.

Come back to God, Gu Qingci sees mu xuanjing still looking at her, as if waiting for her answer.

With a smile, she held mu xuanjing's face in her hands and said, "I hope you can do what you think is worth it. No matter what, I don't care what the world is like or what other people think. But I hope that this road is going down hand in hand with us. What I want is to stand side by side with you..."

As soon as the words fell, mu xuanjing had pressed her on his leg with his palm. Their eyes were flat, and the distance was instantly narrowed. They could hear each other's breath.

"Qingci, I promised to give you a home. I will do what I say. But now I still have some things to finish. I will give you a little more time."

Gu Qingci bit his lip, but still nodded his head.

She knew that mu xuanjing was a secret person, but she knew that mu xuanjing would not hurt her, which was all her trust in him.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Qingci, as a rule, could not see mu xuanjing when she woke up. She rubbed her forehead and laughed with self mockery. In the past, she could wake her up with a little wind and grass around her, but now she sleeps so soundly. It seems that her self-protection ability will degenerate after marrying mu xuanjing.

Hearing the news inside, Liang Jiang asked outside the curtain, "it's still early. Do you want to go on sleeping for a while?"

Gu Qingci shook his head, "don't sleep, I'll go to the pharmacy today."

Seeing that Gu Qingci said so, Liangjiang quickly brought hot water in and waited on Gu Qingci to wash and gargle.

After combing and washing, Gu Qingci drank some bird's nest porridge. Before putting down the spoon, he heard the sound outside.It was Zhuling's voice, "miss is still having breakfast."

Gu Qingci put down the bowl and asked, "what's the matter?"

Suddenly, Xie Tian's voice sounded outside, "princess, I have something to tell you."

Gu Qingci walked to the door and saw Xie Tian standing in the yard, looking like he was in a hurry, "what's the matter?"

Xie Tian relieved his breath and said quickly, "when my subordinates were searching for information in the tea house outside, I ran into old general Gu and his men rushed to the gate of the city. Only then did they know that Deng liangdeng, a subordinate of the old general, had died at the gate of the city and had been hanged at the gate."

Gu Qingci brows a tight, facial expression is not too good, "Deng Xiaowei?"

She knew that Deng Liang's No. 1 figure was also due to the former Prince Duan's rebellion. At that time, her grandfather took Deng Liang and his party against Prince Fu Duan.

Xie Tian continued: "yesterday, Feng Zhencai's case had not progressed. Today, another person related to Prince Duan died. Now people in the city are in a panic. Many people say that the ghost of Prince Duan is asking for his life. When his subordinates see general Gu worried about these things, they want to report to the princess."

Gu Qingci's eyes were tight, and his eyes were full of sharpness. "Nonsense, it must be someone who is playing tricks behind his back."

With that, Gu Qingci asked again, "can the cause of Deng Liang's death be ascertained?"

Xie Tian said: "it looks like suicide. At present, there are no more clues. General Gu insists that Deng Xiaowei can't commit suicide. Besides, Deng Xiaowei still has two half year old children."

Gu Qingci tightened his fingers. "If we say that yesterday's incident may be a coincidence, plus today's case It seems that some people deliberately want the capital city not to be peaceful... "
