famous eldest daughter

Chapter 536
Xiao Ke, however, quietly followed the queen all the way and sneaked into the queen's palace again.

The investigation just now was interrupted because of Gongsun Qi's accident. At this time, his investigation started again.

It was a matter of Miao territory and the Chinanhou Mansion, and he could not relax at all.

After leaving Concubine Hui's place, dusk had soaked the stone steps, dyeing the huge forbidden palace as bright red as blood.

After helping Ji Xiang Ruyi, Gu Yuqing left the palace all the way.

After getting on the carriage of the Marquis of Chinan and Zhou Bingde driving away, Ruyi lowered his voice and said: "Miss, your words have been told to Qinghong, but what Qinghong means is that she does not want to leave the palace at this time. .”

Just now at the palace gate, Gu Yuqing gave Ruyi some instructions, and she turned around and left, quietly meeting Qinghong next to Xiao Jingyu.

Qinghong was the maid that Gusuyan placed in the palace to spy on the Chinanhou Mansion. After Gusuyan passed away, Qinghong was loyal to Gu Yuqing.

During several incidents in the palace, Gu Yuqing was able to seize the opportunity, plan in advance, and pull the strings time and time again to make the queen and Xiao Jingyu suffer the consequences. Qinghong's contribution was second to none.

But things have been done too much, and traces will inevitably show up. In addition, after the Chenxiang Pavilion incident, she was severely beaten. Xiao Jingyu was still unconscious at this time. Qinghong was beaten several times in the palace, and Gu Yuqing I really feel sorry for her.

She wanted to let Concubine Hui take care of her, but after all, she was the person in front of Xiao Jingyu, and Concubine Hui couldn't keep her safe all the time.

Entering the palace this time, Gu Yuqing asked Ruyi to send a message, hoping to find an opportunity to take Qinghong out of the palace.

Unexpectedly, Qinghong refused, frowned slightly, and turned to look at Ruyi, "Why?"

Ruyi sighed and said in a deep tone: "Qinghong said that now the young lady is getting married to His Highness the Third Highness, and the number of visits to the palace will become more frequent in the future. However, the empress and the princess are full of resentment towards the young lady. If she leaves the palace , who will be the lady’s eyes, to keep an eye on those evil tricks for the lady.”

When Gu Yuqing heard this, he was immediately startled. He felt that the tip of his nose was sore and his eyes were swollen.

In the previous life... In order to protect her, Qinghong did not hesitate to expose her identity and was beaten to death by the queen. The death was miserable.

No matter what she does in this life, she cannot let tragedy happen again.

Qinghong thought of her wholeheartedly, but she couldn't put her life above Qinghong's pain like this.

Gu Yuqing knew exactly what kind of temper Xiao Jingyu had.

Even though she was the most favored maid in front of Xiao Jingyu, her days were still difficult.

Shaking her head and letting out a breath, Gu Yuqing said: "No, next month Gongsun Qi and His Highness will get married, so I will look for an opportunity to take her out."

Ruyi bit her lip, remained silent for a moment, and said: "Miss, I think what Qinghong said makes sense. She is no longer in the palace. Who will deliver the news for us?"

Gu Yuqing's face was decisive and firm, "It doesn't matter whether you give it away or not, I can't let Qinghong suffer those hardships again."

More importantly, she didn't say that she couldn't wait until a tragedy happened and everything was irreversible before she remembered to take Qinghong out. It was too late.

Ruyi wanted to persuade her again, but Gu Yuqing waved her hand to interrupt her, "Okay, there is no need to talk about this matter. I have made up my mind. Next time I enter the palace, you can tell Qinghong that she is mine when she comes out of the palace." Orders must be carried out.”

Ruyi had no choice but to nod.

She knew that once Gu Yuqing decided on something, he could not change it.

Taking a deep breath and letting out a long sigh, Ruyi felt uncomfortable in her heart. Suddenly she remembered something Qinghong mentioned, her eyebrows moved slightly and she said: "By the way, miss, Qinghong said that the queen has been raised in the palace recently. A white cat.”

White cat?

Surprise suddenly appeared in Gu Yuqing's eyes.

Although Xiao Jingyu loved kittens and puppies very much, the queen had no love for these animals that were shedding their fur, and even hated them.

Why did I suddenly get a cat...

A person's habits will never change suddenly, unless there is something that she needs to use this cat to complete.

"Qinghong mentioned that the queen keeps cats. Has she ever done anything strange to the cats?"

Hearing Gu Yuqing's question, Ruyi's lips twitched into a smile, "Miss is really amazing, Qinghong said, the queen feeds the kitten oranges every day."

"Orange!" Jixiang couldn't hold it back and blurted out with surprise on his face.

After that, he looked towards Gu Yuqing and asked for confirmation: "Miss, cats don't eat oranges... right?"

After a long sound, he said the last word "ba".

Gu Yuqing nodded, "Usually, it's natural not to eat oranges, but if the queen added something else to the oranges, it's unknown!"

"Miss, you are saying that the Queen is training the cat to eat oranges?" Realizing the weight of this sentence, when Ji Xiang said it, his heart tightened and his face became more serious.

Ruyi heard the words and fell into deep thought, but his eyes were looking at Gu Yuqing.

"Whether it's training or not, I don't know, but it's always abnormal for a cat to eat oranges." Gu Yuqing said.

"Young lady, you should be more careful. The Queen may be doing this to you," Ji Xiang pouted and said angrily.

Ruyi nodded vigorously.

Gu Yuqing smiled and glanced at Ji Xiang Ruyi, "I know!"

But my mind was in turmoil.

Because of her rebirth, because of Xiao Duo's early death, because of the chance between her and Xiao Yu... everything has changed in this life.

Even though she and the Queen were sworn enemies in the last life, the Queen was not as stubborn and cunning towards her as she was in this life.

In this life, Xiao Jingyu and the Queen were simply lingering ghosts to her.

After letting out a deep sigh, Gu Yuqing closed her eyes, thinking about the weird kitten eating oranges. Unknowingly, the carriage entered the second gate of Chinanhou Mansion and stopped steadily.

As the car curtain was opened by Ji Xiang, a cold wind mixed with the refreshing fragrance of osmanthus blew into the carriage. Gu Yuqing shuddered and opened his eyes.

Wrapping up his cloak, he got out of the carriage.

Returning to Tongyuan, I washed up and had dinner. As usual, I placed the three Miao items on the table. There was a rosewood box containing a glazed bottle sealed with bright yellow brocade and emerald osmanthus. A rich rosewood box, a heavy and huge Miao sword inlaid with pearls and agate gems.

Just after they were placed side by side, Ji Xiang Ruyi laid out fruit snacks and a pot of hot tea for Gu Yuqing, closed the door and left, and the "Heavenly Secret" jade hanging on Gu Yuqing's waist made a roaring sound.

"Ah, yeah, but I'm exhausted!"

It suddenly let out a loud cry, which startled Gu Yuqing. She put her hand on her chest and patted it a few times before regaining her breath. She stretched out her hand to untie it and placed it on the table side by side with the three Miao border things.

Just as he put it down, before he could speak, "Tianji" burst out with a harsh and sharp cry, "Ah! I'm going to die, I'm going to die!" The voice was filled with panic that Gu Yuqing had never seen before.
