famous eldest daughter

Chapter 199
When he arrived at the door of Prince Duan's Mansion, Xiao Yu made a grand entrance and went to knock on the door.

Anyway, he has always been bold and reckless in front of others, and he has done all kinds of ridiculous things, not to mention that it is not yet Wu Shi, so it is not an excessive thing for him to visit Prince Duan.

When the gatekeeper of Prince Duan's Mansion saw that the visitor was His Highness the Fourth Prince, he didn't bother to inform him. He only asked someone to go to the backyard to inform him, while welcoming Xiao Yu into the manor with a flattering look on his face.

Who doesn't know that this prince, who is favored by the emperor, spends a lot of money, and whenever he is served, he feels comfortable, and the reward is several times his monthly salary.

"Your Highness is here to see our prince? What a coincidence. Just a while ago, our prince took his concubine Cheng out, saying they were going to Xishan to soak in the hot springs." The boy led Xiao Yu toward the second door. Said with a flattering smile.

Xiao Yu's hurried steps suddenly stopped, and he turned to look at the boy with a smile in his eyes, "You said my uncle is out?"

The young man nodded, "No, you said this happened, it was more of a coincidence than anything else. Just a moment ago, my servant opened the door for the prince himself."

A trace of suspicion flashed through Xiao Yu's heart.

Is this a coincidence or premeditation!

However, no matter what, without Prince Duan, Gu Yuqing is a little safer. Even if the dead soldiers in the study are activated, without Prince Duan's order, their interception and killing will not exceed the scope of the study.

The few people he sent were enough to ensure that Gu Yuqing's master and servant left safely.

As for Xiao Duo... Xiao Yu gritted his teeth and cursed silently. It would be best if he was shot through the heart with an arrow and died on the spot.

Xiao Yu raised his feet and walked towards the second door. Behind him, he took out a piece of silver and rewarded it to the young man. "You are quite smart. Next time our Highness comes again, if you have any news, you can tell him in advance. The reward will be silver." More than this.”

As soon as the boy saw the ingot of snowflake silver, his eyes immediately shone brightly. He took the silver and quickly hid it in his arms. He nodded cheerfully and assured, "Don't worry, Uncle Minglu. I know everything I can say."

This ingot of silver is not only his monthly salary, it is simply more than he earns in a year. Sure enough, meeting His Highness the Fourth Prince will be a good thing!

Prince Duan was not here, so Xiao Yu went directly into the inner courtyard without any hesitation to chat with Princess Duan.

He had a valid reason anyway.

Princess Duan is acting as a matchmaker for Dong Xueruo and Murong Hao. As a relative of the Dong family, it is natural for her to come to inquire.

In this room, Xiao Yu is sitting in Prince Duan's Mansion, while in that room, Gu Yuqing and Xiao Duo have safely entered the study.

Because they were afraid of the reflection on the window, they did not light any candles, but relied on the clear moonlight to rummage through what they were looking for. For a while, the study was completely silent except for the sound of people rummaging through the bookcase.

Xiao Duo has a clear goal. He wants to find the secret letter that was sent back by Eunuch Mu.With that secret letter, he was [-]% sure of knocking down Prince Duan in one fell swoop.

As for Gu Yuqing, she wanted to find some clues about the tragic destruction of the Gusu family, as well as traces of the Miao woman.

In the study room, there are more than a dozen bookshelves as high as two people, and they are full of books and volumes. If you look through them one by one, you will probably use up all the summer nights. Find.

Scanning around the room, when Xiao Duo rushed towards a box in the room, Gu Yuqing moved lightly and walked to Prince Duan's desk. Ji Xiang Ruyi followed closely behind, not daring to relax for a moment, with a pair of vigilant eyes from time to time. Shooting towards the door and window.

As I approached the table, I was immediately attracted by a piece of rice paper placed casually on the table.

It was ordinary Luoyang paper. The ink on the paper had not yet dried completely and exuded a strong fragrance of ink. However, the two large words on the paper made Gu Yuqing's hand holding the rice paper tremble.

Xiao Yu!

Prince Duan dipped enough ink, but only wrote such a name. This made Gu Yuqing not frightened.

She could even imagine Prince Duan's sinister gaze when he wrote these two words.

I don't know since when, Gu Yuqing didn't even notice that she started to care about everything related to Xiao Yu.

Gu Yuqing was holding the rice paper to try to figure out what Prince Duan's intention was in writing this name. Xiao Duo, who was rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, noticed something strange on her side. His eyes immediately lit up and he turned around. "What did you find?" he asked in a low voice. road.

Gu Yuqing raised the corner of her mouth and gave a sneer. While folding the rice paper and handing it to Ruyi on one side, she said to Xiao Duo, "His Highness has nothing to do with what he discovered."

Xiao Duo immediately said angrily: "Gu Yuqing, don't forget, I risked my life to bring you here."

Gu Yuqing tilted his head, with a calm smile on his face, but the smile was cold, "Since you are risking your life, your highness should make this trip worthwhile, so don't waste your time with me here. .”

As he said that, Gu Yuqing ignored Xiao Duo's face that turned green with anger, and continued to look through the desk carefully.

Xiao Duo immediately stepped forward, and when he was in front of Gu Yuqing's feet, he was pulled away by Ruyi, "Your Highness, respect yourself." Ruyi looked directly at Xiao Duo with her murderous eyes.

In her heart, the only master was Gu Yuqing.

As for the others, she didn't recognize them at all.

Whenever someone wants to be disrespectful to Gu Yuqing, she is the first one who cannot bear it.

Xiao Duo never expected that the maid next to Gu Yuqing would be so bold. He was suddenly pushed away by her and stumbled immediately. Chang Shun quickly stepped forward to support him and said with concern: "Your Highness, are you okay?" It made him look even more embarrassed.

Xiao Duo immediately said angrily: "Gu Yuqing, you are presumptuous! Do you know that just because of her action just now, this king can make her die without a place to bury her!"

Gu Yuqing raised his eyes and smiled, "I have been arrogant many times, does your Highness think I am arrogant now?" There was deep contempt in the sarcasm. He paused for a moment and then said: "Your Highness, you are a noble prince, you want me to This servant girl died without a burial place, she is really ambitious, I really admire her!"

"You..." Xiao Duo was immediately so angry that Gu Yuqing felt pain in his chest, but he was still concerned about the dead soldiers and secret guards outside who could be touched at any time. He did not dare to make any big move, so he could only grit his teeth and glare at Gu Yuqing. After a long time, seeing that they didn't seem to care at all, I had no choice but to give up and turn around to find what I was looking for.

But I hated Gu Yuqing enough in my heart.

Xiao Duo didn't understand why Gu Yuqing always poured a basin of ice water on him while giving him hope and opportunities.

Every time he was so confident that he could take Gu Yuqing for his own use, Gu Yuqing would always make him so angry that his teeth ached.

Gu Yuqing treated him like a cat playing with a mouse. He allowed her to manipulate and humiliate him, but he couldn't use all his strength to express it.
