Chapter 134: It’s the Empress!
Originally, Mengyao Gu wanted to leave one alive.
However, her body reacted too quickly, and she directly twisted the opponent’s neck without control.
Fortunately, there was still one assassin left on Xiao Hong’s side, which made Mengyao Gu quickly call out “put down the sword” and finally saved the last assassin’s life.
Leaving the assassin’s life was not because Mengyao Gu’s good-natured personality acted up, but because she wanted to ask about the other party’s background.
Who exactly wanted to attack the Gu family.
If it were the Witch Priest, then the opponent was truly detestable… attacking them every few days, and they couldn’t continue to sit idly by, but had to fight back!
“Your Gu family drove the Wang clan to a dead end, and you will definitely face retribution!!!”
After the assassin spoke with great grief and indignation, thinking that he could not take revenge now, he might as well die!
Anyway, the Wang clan was finished.
Thinking of this, before Xiao Hong could react, the assassin directly rammed into the sword tip.
After stabbing the sword tip into his chest, he no longer breathed the next second.
Xiao Hong frowned when she saw the other party actively seeking death, then turned her head to look at Mengyao Gu’s position, and then knelt down with a ‘thump’.
“Madam, Xiao Hong accidentally killed the assassin, losing important clues! Please punish me, Madam!”
“Get up, the Gu family has no habit of kneeling! You should remember this in the future.”
“But, I…”
“There’s nothing to say. The other party wanted to die, and you couldn’t stop him! However, when he mentioned the Wang clan, I already knew who the mastermind was.”
Mengyao Gu did not expect Xiao Hong to suddenly kneel down. When she spoke, she immediately reached out to help Xiao Hong up, saying that she would not blame her.
However, after mentioning the Wang clan, Mengyao Gu had deep doubts in her heart.
Given the background of the Wang clan, even if they made a mistake in the disaster relief grain matter, they would not be so easily overthrown.
After all, the person behind them was the Empress Dowager.
But the assassin who attacked her just now said… they had already pushed the Wang clan to a dead end?
This was unlikely!
If Gu Yu were here, he might be able to figure out the reason, but now Mengyao Gu did not understand the matter, so she couldn’t figure it out and decided not to trouble herself anymore.
“Zhuo Fei, did you see the methods the assassin used to attack just now? If it were you, how would you counterattack?”
“Uh… I would first dodge the opponent…”
Then, Mengyao Gu directly used the assassin as an example. While she was talking to Zhuo Fei, Xiao Hong nimbly moved the assassin’s body to the door and handed it over to Xiao Hei for disposal.
Afterward, she wanted to quickly return to Mengyao Gu’s side, not only to protect her safety but also to see if she could learn something.
Xiao Hong admired Mengyao Gu’s martial arts very much!
Moreover, with Mengyao Gu’s permission, there were no obstacles at all now! It was just a matter of whether she could learn it…
“Xiao Hong, this is a letter from above, specifically for Mengyao Gu to receive.”
“I know.”
However, before Xiao Hong could return to the courtyard, a voice suddenly sounded.
When Xiao Hong returned with the letter in her hand, she couldn’t help but sigh, thinking that she would never be able to live a peaceful life after all.
Living in the Gu family, Xiao Hong felt very satisfied.
She experienced a different life, as if she was living another life.
It was like a dream.
But now it was back to normal.
The dream had woken up.
However, if the alliance had not extended a helping hand back then, she would not have survived… so her life belonged to the alliance.
She must prioritize the alliance’s missions!
She was now just a guard protecting Mengyao Gu, and she should not worry too much about other things.
“Madam, this is a letter from the alliance.”
Hearing Xiao Hong’s words, Mengyao Gu did not say much, but directly took the letter in her hand. Then, after letting Zhuo Fei train by himself, she opened the envelope and took out the letter paper inside.
To my friend Mengyao:
I apologize for disturbing you at this time, but there is a very important matter that requires both of you to be present.
As for Gu Yu, I will send someone to greet him.
As for you, the person sent will arrive the day after you receive this letter… I hope you will not refuse, as the following matters are very important to me.
I also hope you can witness all of this.
Bai Qian
There were not many words on the letter. After Mengyao Gu finished reading it, she immediately put the letter away.
Then she did not continue to train Zhuo Fei but directly let him go home and not come for a while.
Zhuo Fei did not ask any further questions about Mengyao Gu’s words, but nodded to show that he understood, and quickly left the Gu family.
He planned to go home and continue practicing the martial arts moves he learned today.
After Zhuo Fei left, Mengyao Gu also asked Xiao Hong to pack her things, preparing to leave Yang Family Village the next day.
When no one was around, Mengyao Gu couldn’t help but sigh, thinking that her little husband had guessed it right!
Before Gu Yu went to Lianzhou, he had already told Mengyao Gu about what might happen in Yang Family Village.
When she mentioned that people might come from the Imperial Palace in the capital, Mengyao Gu felt that Gu Yu was overthinking.
After all, they were living well in Yang Family Village, so why would the Imperial Palace come to pick them up!
They hadn’t committed any crimes.
However, because Gu Yu was being vague and didn’t finish speaking, Mengyao Gu thought… it would be the Empress Dowager who would first reprimand them and then ask them to go to the Imperial Palace.
But now, it seemed she had misjudged completely!
It was actually the Empress!
She didn’t know what kind of development there would be this time…
Regarding Empress Bai Qian’s important matters, although Mengyao Gu had some vague guesses in her heart, she also felt that her thoughts were too preposterous.
Bai Qian wouldn’t usurp the throne, would she!
After all, after establishing the alliance, Bai Qian’s ambitions should be great.
With her personality, she was not an ordinary woman content with the harem…
However, it was just a guess.
The specific situation was not yet clear!
It was all Gu Yu’s fault for saying some things usually, which made her have a preconceived notion and always couldn’t help but think in this direction.
She raised her hand and patted her cheeks. After Mengyao Gu suppressed this thought, she didn’t bother with anything else but returned to the room to pack her things, preparing to go to the capital later.
Although there wasn’t much to pack, there were many things needed on the road, so it was better to be fully prepared.
As for Gu Yu, Mengyao Gu didn’t need to worry too much.
With the space, it was much more convenient… at least she didn’t have to carry luggage in large bags, which was incredibly easy!
She didn’t know… when the two of them would be able to meet. If it could be earlier, that would be great!
She really missed her little husband!
