The plan was seamless. Sha Qianli killed a nameless man and took the blame. He saved Wang Shilang and then Wang Shilang would be obedient. But who knew that the plan did not change quickly. Now, not only Zhan Xuanang, an insider, was let go, but Sha Qianli might be killed.
In this way, wouldn’t he lose all his efforts?
Gu Lingtian’s forehead was leaping wildly, “When will the Majesty be executed?”
“It was originally this afternoon, but the prefect reported that someone died of illness in the prison today, so it was delayed until tomorrow morning.”
Gu Lingtian snorted coldly, “It’s up to him to know the truth.” Then he waved to the visitor, “You go down to do this…”
The visitor nodded like pounding garlic, and soon ran out of the residence happily.
Qingyi looked away for a while before turning around and returning to Yanzhi. As soon as she entered the yard, she heard Gu Qingchen chanting softly: “‘A little green mountains and green colors are dangerous, and the clouds and rocks are not hidden for the week’. Yanzhi, the word “danger” is really wonderful to describe the slightly drunken sunset color to the fullest.”
Yanzhi took a sip of tea, turned over a page of the book indifferently, but did not answer, and did not see Gu Qingchen.
Qingyi couldn’t help but sigh again. This Xiao Wang was thick-skinned, but why didn’t he be liked by Master Yan?
Gu Qingchen was hung aside by Yan Zhi. From the corner of his eyes, he immediately felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw. “Qingyi, what are you doing at the door? Come in quickly.”
Qingyi walked to the two of them with a tough bullet, not knowing whether the inquiry should have said in front of Gu Qingchen, and glanced at Yan Zhi gently.
“How is there?” Yan Zhi spoke first, and Qingyi had no scruples anymore. He told the news one by one. At the end, he added, “That man looks like a member of the Sea Shark Gang. Maybe the Sea Shark Gang will take action tonight.”
Gu Qingchen smiled when he heard this, “Qingyi, you have followed Yan Zhi for a long time, and your mind is also flexible.”
Yan Zhi looked up at Gu Qingchen and asked, “Sha Qianli, do you know him?”
Gu Qingchen scratched his nose awkwardly, without saying a word, but only gave Qingyi a wink, and Qingyi immediately retreated to the entrance of the yard.
“I looked at the portrait at that time, but I was not sure. After all, I hadn’t seen him for many years.” Gu Qingchen said truthfully, “When I find out, Gu Lingtian has taken him to surrender, so naturally he didn’t say it.”
“Is that true?” Yan Zhi’s clear eyes stared at Gu Qingchen, and Gu Qingchen was slightly shocked. For Yan Zhi’s keen intuition, he did recognize Sha Qianli at that time, but because of Yan Zhi’s attitude towards Zhan Xuanang, he was jealous. Thinking that he was just a scholar and polite, he did not mention this matter. Who would have thought that this matter would be getting bigger and bigger, and now it was Gu Ling.The conspiracy of heaven.
“Yanzhi, I have never deceived you.” Gu Qingchen explained, “It’s true that I didn’t tell you because I was not sure.”
Looking at Gu Qingchen’s changing expression, Yan Zhi had no idea how he thought. Although he was moved by Gu Qingchen’s never leaving and caring for Gu Qingchen all the way, the heavy past he cared for her could not allow her to be moved. Since that’s the case, why should she care whether Gu Qingchen has something to hide from her? What is my identity and position to question Gu Qingchen?
Yan Zhi’s heart was twisted and turned around, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and then slowly said: “The prefect is cunning, and he deliberately delayed the time for the killing until the early morning tomorrow. If the Sea Shark Gang does not take action tonight, it would be strange.”
“Yanzhi means, will they rob the prison?” Gu Qingchen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yan Zhi change the topic. He played with the tea cup in his hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes flashed, with a silent murderous intent.
“Otherwise, I’ll take someone…”
“No need.” Yan Zhi interrupted Gu Qingchen’s words, “He wants to save him, and he will have his own tricks. Now the situation is not clear, why not just do it?”
“But, aren’t we too passive in this way?”
“That’s not necessarily. As long as you understand his intentions, you can counterattack.” Yan Zhi smiled faintly, “What’s more, we are the ones who plan this time.”
“We?” Gu Qingchen smiled happily.
Yan Zhi subconsciously turned his head, but just as he met Gu Qingchen’s eyes, he avoided it.
“Since Yanzhi said so, I will go to guard it myself tonight and see what trouble they can make.” Gu Qingchen looked at Yanzhi with a smile, knowing that he couldn’t force her too much.
“Okay, this matter will be the King of Xiaoxiao.” Yan Zhi stood up and saluted, with a little intention of seeing off the guests. In the past, Gu Qingchen must have been silly, but today he left happily.
As soon as Gu Qingchen left, Yanzhi said, “Qingyi, prepare the car.”
The afterglow of the setting sun gradually sank into the west, and the orange light enveloped the imperial capital of the Northern Kingdom in a thin layer of mist. There were very few pedestrians on the streets, and the song hall and teahouse were very lively.
The carriage came all the way to a yard. Before the carriage could stop, a thin man came out of the yard, wearing a black long gown and a picture of filial piety hanging on his right arm.
The person who came is very handsome. Although his bones are as thin as a hair, his eyes are as deep as the sea, making people unable to see at first sight. He only feels that this person is calm, trustworthy, and kind. But when you really want to get close to him, you will find that the smile that often lies on the corners of his lips has not reached his eyes.
Yanzhi felt regretful when he looked at Zhan Xuanang like this, but she never regretted it. If he only knew how to treat it, she would only know how to treat it.If a person who does not understand human affairs wins the top scorer, the consequences will be tragic.
Instead of being forced to change, it is better to take the initiative to change. Perhaps such initiative can still retain your sincerity. This truth was realized after a lifetime.
