Chapter 104 We have a traitor among us

Lu Xiaofeng was washing his hands. He had already washed them ten times, but he wanted to wash them ten more times.

Gu Qing half leaned back on the recliner and took a sip of wine happily. Gu Qing was not a person who loved drinking, but sometimes when he saw something happy, he would have a few sips, such as Lu Xiaofeng's unlucky look now, and seeing the incident of the Embroidered Thief, and the more than 200 good deeds he had gained.

"Strengthen your heart..."

In addition to drinking, Gu Qing applied his good deeds to strengthen his heart.

Gu Qing's merit system can strengthen everything about Gu Qing. Now Gu Qing is looking for the connection between acupoints. In addition to martial arts scriptures, he has also used good deeds to memorize a lot of medical books. He feels that before exploring the connection between acupoints, he should first strengthen his body in all aspects to make his body more durable.

The heart is the main organ of the human circulatory system. Strengthening the heart can allow Gu Qing to better control his body, enhance his body's resistance, regulate his body temperature in extreme cold and heat, etc. Gu Qing's one-time strengthening does not give him very advanced abilities, but his skin, eyes, and hair will gradually become white, clear, and black.

"There is no tree in Bodhi, the mirror is not a stage, and there is nothing in it, where can it cause dust."

Hua Man Lou listened to the sound of the water and tried to persuade Lu Xiao Feng, "Why do you have to make your mind and body uncomfortable?"

Now Lu Xiaofeng just can't let it go.

In this small house, besides Gu Qing and Hua Manlou who were drinking, there were also Xue Bing and Shi Xiuxue, who also advised Lu Xiaofeng at this time.

Lu Xiaofeng then turned around, very unhappy. In this incident of the Embroidered Thief, Lu Xiaofeng did not get to the limelight, but was instead tricked by Gu Qing to the point of wanting to vomit blood.

"Have I offended you?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked gloomy and stared at Gu Qing.

When being kidnapped by Jin Jiuling, Lu Xiaofeng felt pure malice.

"Yes!"

Gu Qing admitted it frankly.

This surprised Lu Xiaofeng. He stared at Gu Qing and asked, "When?"

During the incident of the Jinpeng Dynasty, Lu Xiaofeng knew that Gu Qing would take revenge and deliberately avoided conflicts with Gu Qing.

"The day when Master Bitter Melon held a vegetarian banquet."

Gu Qing said calmly: "You listened to what Xue'er said and actually thought that I would do something to a child. At that time, you offended me."

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly thought of the situation on that day. At that time, he spoke a little harshly because of Shangguan Xueer's words and Gu Qing's defeat of Gusong, which made Gusong very embarrassed. However, afterwards, Lu Xiaofeng had expressed his concern.

"You don't think that by making a bland speech, the matter will be over."

Gu Qing spread his hands.

Lu Xiaofeng took a long breath, he never thought that Gu Qing could be so petty. He stretched out his hand and pointed at Gu Qing twice. He wanted to say something, but swallowed it back. He felt that there must be a reason why people like Gu Qing had no friends.

"Xue Bing, let's go!"

Lu Xiaofeng slammed the table and prepared to send Xue Bing home.

But at this moment, Xue Bing did not stand up immediately, but was a little embarrassed, which made Lu Xiaofeng's heart skip a beat again.

"If you want to go, go ahead."

Gu Qing smiled and said, "We have a great party later. Guess who didn't get invited?"

Lu Xiaofeng was so angry that he wanted to overturn the table... He had already guessed what kind of party it was, but Lu Xiaofeng was indeed not invited, because he could be classified as a victim in the Embroidery Thief case, and Gu Qing was the hero who cleared the name of the red shoes.

Gu Qing was drinking leisurely, but suddenly his ears perked up, he stood up, grabbed Xue Bing beside him, and said, "We have to leave first."

Hua Manlou picked up the wine glass, took a sip calmly, and said, "It should be a good thing that the Prince of Pingnan invites you to be a guest official. Why are you so scared?"

Gu Qing solved the case of the Embroidery Thief, and his talent was valued by the King of Pingnan, who wanted to invite Gu Qing to be a guest official.

"Where in the world are there Yangzhou cranes?"

Gu Qingchang smiled, took Xue Bing's hand and left.

There were guests following, each expressing his ambition. Some wanted to become the governor of Yangzhou, some wanted to accumulate more wealth and become a wealthy man, and some wanted to ride a crane to the sky and become an immortal. Then someone said, I want to [have a fortune of one hundred thousand taels of gold and ride a crane to Yangzhou], which means I want to get promoted, get rich, and become an immortal.

It is also called Yangzhou Crane. But in this world, how can you have everything?

Hua Manlou was very clear about this.

Seeing Gu Qing being so open-minded, Lu Xiaofeng was upset and said, "Ye Gucheng is in the Prince of Pingnan's Mansion. Isn't he the Yangzhou Crane?"

Have the best of both worlds.

Hua Manlou paused for a moment and said, "Maybe."

In an instant, the fine horses from the Prince of Pingnan's Palace arrived here, and more than ten carriages were parked outside. The boxes were filled with jewels. The first person who came here wanted to invite Gu Qing, but he saw Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, and Shi Xiuxue. Gu Qing had disappeared without a trace.

The car full of generous gifts was never given away.

Night, late at night.

A waning moon hung obliquely in the sky, making the house on the deserted mountain look somewhat desolate and mysterious.

There was a long table in the living room of the house with nine chairs in total. Except for Gu Qing, the rest were the women in red shoes.

Gongsun Da Niang Gongsun Lan sat at the top, with Gongsun Er Niang and Gongsun San Niang on either side, then the famous prostitute Ouyang Qing, Jiang Qingxia who had met Lu Xiaofeng in Qixia Temple, the sixth was a nun with no hair on her head, and the seventh was a girl in red.

Xue Bing ranks eighth among them.

"This one is the hero Gu Qing who captured the Embroidered Thief Jin Jiuling."

Gongsun Lan pointed at Gu Qing and introduced him.

After this name was spoken, the sisters in Red Shoes were horrified and looked at Gu Qing one after another.

The red-haired girl asked, “But Gu Qing, who spread the word in the martial arts world that he would fight Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng alone?”

Gu Qing nodded.

Ouyang Qing looked at Gu Qing and said with great interest: "I heard that Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng have already set a date to fight on the 15th of August on the Purple Gold Mountain."

Purple Mountain is located in Nanjing City. It is also a famous mountain since ancient times. Famous people throughout history have left various traces on Purple Mountain. Fighting on Purple Mountain can also leave a beautiful story.

But the final battle site was not in Purple Mountain, but in the Forbidden City.

Because the most important thing about this showdown on top of the Forbidden City is to attract the attention of the palace guards, and then Ye Gucheng will kill the emperor and replace him with the Prince of Pingnan who looks exactly like the emperor, thus usurping the imperial power without anyone noticing.

"It doesn't matter."

Gu Qing said: "They can arrange whatever they want, I will go to the battle."

Gu Qing always felt that Ye Gucheng's death was a pity, and if Gu Qing went up to fight, perhaps it could avoid a situation where one of Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng would have to die.

"Can you beat it?"

The girl in red asked.

"do not know."

Gu Qing shook his head and said, "There are many things that you can only know after experiencing them personally. If I knew I could definitely beat Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng, I wouldn't have to fight them."

After chatting and getting to know each other, Gongsun Lan changed the topic back.

"I brought him here today as a circumstantial witness."

Gongsun Lan swept her eyes over the sisters and said decisively, "There's a traitor among us!"

The embroidered satin and the red shoes were all sold to Jin Jiuling.

Gu Qing held his face and watched all this quietly. The traitor of the Red Shoes was Gongsun Erniang. She colluded with Jin Jiuling and gave money to Jin Jiuling. If Gongsun Lan fell, Gongsun Erniang could also take over the Red Shoes...

Gu Qing knew all these but didn't say anything. He just watched Gongsun Lan solve the case quietly. Gu Qing didn't care what would happen to the traitor who was exposed. Gu Qing was waiting for the result so that he could expose Gongsun Lan.
