They knew that there must be someone following behind them. Even though they were much more convenient to speak, the two of them did not dare to stay and went straight to the direction Gusu Yan had already investigated.

The private house in southern Beijing, passing through the alley like a spider web, finally stopped in front of a gate painted with dark green paint.

“You really want to kill someone?” Before he could push the door, Gu Zhen suddenly turned his head and asked Gu Su Yan.

A sly smile appeared in Gusu Yancheng’s eyes, “Guess!”

After saying that, he chuckled and pushed the door straight in.

When they entered, an ordinary-looking woman was washing clothes. Seeing that two strangers didn’t knock on the door, she broke in directly. The woman immediately stood up from the small stool, rubbing the water droplets on her hands with the apron in front of her, and said, “Who are you?” She was full of vigilance.

Gu Suyan stepped forward, “We are…”

Before he could finish his words, he raised his hand and palmed the girl’s neck.

The girl suddenly turned her eyes and fell softly to the ground.

“She doesn’t know how to do martial arts!” Gu Zhen pointed to the person who collapsed on the ground, frowned.

Gu Suyan did not answer, but said, “Do you take her up the mountain, or should I take her up the mountain?”

Gu Zhen’s spine was slightly stiff, “You really want to take her up the mountain to hand it over to that bald donkey? What is her identity?”

Gu Suyan’s mouth slightly closed, took a breath, and nodded, “Yes.”

But he did not answer the second half of Gu Zhen.

Gu Zhen clenched his fists, “What is she?”

Gu Su Yan raised his eyebrows, “What, Prince Gu, who has always been a playboy, cares about the life of irrelevant people?”

Gu Zhen’s eyes met Gu Su Yan, “I thought you were different from others, but I didn’t expect that you were all the same.”

Gu Su Yan’s eyes trembled slightly, “How?”
“You are all the same selfish, greedy and fear of death. You were sent by the general of Gusu to Qingquan Temple as a hostage to settle the heart of His Majesty today. Then in Qingquan Temple, you need to obey all the commands of the abbot, so that he will whitewash the peace in front of His Majesty.”

Gu Su Yan cut off Gu Zhen’s words, “I was in Qingquan Temple, and I did not cause trouble, and everything was peaceful, so why should I cover up!”

The sound is as cold as frost.

Gu Zhen sneered, “But false charges are always easy to be picked up by people. You dare not offend the bald abbot. You are obviously careful in your words and actions and will never take a wrong step, but you are afraid that the abbot will fabricate facts in front of His Majesty, slander you, and even harm the general of Gusu. Therefore, you obey him.”

Gusu Yan wanted to explain, but he opened his mouth several times, but in the end he only said, “What do you want?”

Gu Zhen clenched his fists and stared at Gusu Yan, “I will take you away. As long as you are in Kyoto, no one dares to hurt you at all. If you marry me, I will protect you, and I will protect you.”

Gusu Yan smiled, “You bless me? You are still being sent to Qingquan Temple by the Marquis of Chinan to protect yourself!”

Gu Zhen explained, “I am different from you. As long as I change my evil spirits and return to the right, I can still return to Chinan Marquis’ Mansion. You are a hostage and you can’t go back to Qibei in your life. Anyway, you just want to stay in Kyoto and stay under the emperor’s nose. Isn’t it the same!”

Gusu Yan bit his lip, “Do you think Chinan Marquis sent you to Qingquan Temple because you are unruly and he is unable to discipline him?”

Gu Zhen was stunned, and Gusu Yan obviously had something in his words.

Gusu Yan continued: “The Chinan Army commanded by the Marquis of Chinan, like our Qibei Army, is only loyal to the commander but not the monarch. This is a big trouble for Your Majesty today!”

Gu Zhen was stunned, and the time was smashed down on his head and face. Those he had suspected but couldn’t figure it out, and he suddenly realized it in an instant.
