Chapter 46 - Trust

The next day at dawn, Yun Qianliang woke up early.

After experiencing the assassination, Yun Qianliang had especially despised this body that lacked brute strength and poor physical qualities. At that time, she had wanted to train everyday in the future, not to the level of his body in her previous life but to the point that she would be able to survive in times of crisis.

This body was a little weak, Yun Qianliang did not dare to be too harsh on herself, so she simply ran ten laps around Green Pine Academy, and slowly trained.

The winter morning brought along a bone-piercing chill. She wore a ponytail and clothes that weren't considered thick. At first, she was shivering from the cold, but her calves were trembling. She had to run two laps to get used to it.

Gu Yicheng got up and prepared to go to court, the Gu San took some medicine to change the medicine for Master. Listening to Gu San reporting that Yun Qianliang was jogging in the courtyard, Gu Yicheng walked over to the window and opened it.

In the distance, Gu Yicheng saw a petite figure running happily in the dark sky. Before long, she reached them.

Gu Yicheng held onto the window with both of his hands, and shouted to the people running towards him, "Qian Qian Qian, come and help me apply the medicine."

Yun Qianliang's footsteps did not stop as she looked at the window that was filled with light. Gu Yicheng's tall body stood there, facing the shadow of the light, and although her expression could not be seen clearly, her eyes seemed to be looking at someone who was deep and calm, very black, so dark that it seemed to have an indistinct light.

Yun Qianliang thought that in the end, he had to take care of the wound for her. As a person, one shouldn't be merciless and unruly, treating such a small matter like this had already been mentioned by the other party.

Yun Qianliang stopped at the window with her legs, and walked towards the window, "Move aside."

Gu Yicheng turned his body to the side, only to see Yun Qianliang using both hands to support the window, using all the strength in his body, her waist and legs twisted, and she easily flipped over the window.

Gu Yicheng's surprise completely changed in an instant. He raised his hands to cover half his face, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably as he laughed silently.

"Hurry up, don't waste time." Yun Qianliang walked towards the table that had medicine and bandages on it.

"Good, good, good." Gu Yicheng said three words in a row. Even though the smile on his face had stopped, he could not hide the joy on his face. On the contrary, it was because he could suppress it and it seemed like there was a little love hidden in the depths of his eyes.

Yun Qianliang calmly undid his belt and tore her shirt, revealing the wound on her left shoulder blade.

He was already injured, but he had to pretend that he was fine in front of outsiders. He even drank quite a bit last night, causing him to become angry from the injury.

"Hands up." Yun Qianliang started to remove the bandage.

Gu Yicheng obediently raised his hand, looking at her with drooping eyes. His face was serious, and the way he removed the bandages on his body was gentle and proficient, causing him to feel uncomfortable. He opened his mouth to break the quiet atmosphere, "What are you planning to do today?"

"Find a way to catch the killer." Yun Qianliang casually answered.

Immediately after, the atmosphere became quiet again. Gu Yicheng shifted his gaze elsewhere and stared at the Golden Sore Medicine in the tray.

After Yun Qianliang removed the bandages, Gu San handed over a wet towel. She naturally received it, and used the wet towel to gently wipe the bloodstains around the wound.

He put down the wet towel and reached for the Golden Sore Medicine. His five fingers were white and tender, neither fat nor thin. They looked really good.

Gu Yicheng stared at the hand, his eyes landed on her body again. In his mind, he could see her watery eyes after drinking the alcohol last night.

"Gu Yicheng, you cannot be careless with your injuries, it's a good thing that you did not injure any muscles or bones, if not your left arm would be crippled sooner or later." Yun Qianliang poured the Golden Sore Medicine onto the wound, carefully wiped it out, and then wrapped it with bandages to bind it. After a circle around, it did not slip and scatter, and was as neat and tidy as a doctor's bag.

"Yes." Gu Yicheng agreed obediently, then felt that he deserved it a little, and then said: "The mansion isn't safe, if I don't let others see me drinking it would be hard to dispel my suspicions, the Jin Wang is waiting for me to make a mistake, how can I let him do as he pleases?"

"Ji Qichi is someone from the Jin Wang, right?" Yun Qianliang was suspicious.

Ji Qichi had personally stabbed him, but Song Shujin did not know about it.

"Yes, but Song Shujin doesn't seem to know that he knows martial arts, so he naturally wouldn't leak out the news of me being injured." When this person was mentioned, Gu Yicheng frowned.

If he wanted to gain power and power, he could fight for it himself. But since he was concealing the matter of the Martial Competition, it was obvious that he did not want to receive too much attention, the two of them contradicted each other and it was even harder to determine what his intentions were.

Yun Qianliang rolled up the bandage smoothly and said seriously: "Gu Yicheng, do you want to check with me?"

Before they were married, he had already investigated her information to the end of the day. Of this, she would definitely think of it, if there really were things that he had not found out, she could just tell him, why would she waste so much time and effort investigating them?

"I always felt that something was off. For example, the assassination attempt the day before yesterday, when you just reported that you wanted to increase the tax, there were a lot of people who wanted to kill you. At this time, it is most suitable for people to blatantly make a move and then give up on those who oppose increasing the tax. Ji Qichi's appearance is also strange, he doesn't seem to be on the same side as the previous group of people, then the people before would not be the people Song Shujin sent to kill me, my character has indeed provoked many people previously, but in the end, it is a grudge between girls, do you need to put me to death? " Yun Qianliang was very uneasy in her heart. That unease came from an unknown source outside her memories.

During the conversation in the study room that day, he had inadvertently discovered that in Yun Qinan's heart, she, her humble daughter, was actually a person who trespassed into the Yun Xiang Mansion's study room.

suspected that it was her who barged into the study, it was simply a fantasy, and there was nothing to say about it, but he suspected that such a useless person had appeared too suddenly, causing others to feel suspicious.

Ji Qichi was curious, to kill a weak girl like her, did he even need to apply poison on his sword?

"I'll look into this." Gu Yicheng understood in his heart, he did not say much to her.

Yun Qianliang packed her stuff and continued jogging.

Gu Yicheng stood up and was about to change the official uniform s behind the screen. When he stood up, the jade pendant at his waist lightly swayed, he lowered his head and stared at the jade pendant for a while, then called out to Yun Qianliang who wanted to flip out the window.

"Wait a moment." Gu Yicheng took a jade pendant from his waist and walked towards the window, "This is for you."

Yun Qianliang held the knot on the jade pendant and waved it in front of her eyes. The round jade pendant was carved with shallow lines that covered the entire jade pendant like it was a maze.

"Rewards for bandaging?" Yun Qianliang was not very satisfied.

Compared to the jade pendant, she preferred practical things such as money.

"You only have thirteen by your side, fourteen is not enough, take this jade and go to Zheng'an Pawnshop, the shopkeeper will bring you to pick." Gu Yicheng explained.

"I don't want it." Yun Qianliang rejected it and returned the jade back to him.

Although she was too useful to him, it did not mean that she was willing to sink deeper and deeper into the struggle for power.

Jade pendants had different meanings. After receiving her, they would move closer to the whirlpool of power and influence.

Gu Yicheng frowned, looking at the hand in front of him, he was annoyed.

She knew that this jade pendant was priceless, and it was equivalent to him personally coming here. The Gu family's secret guards as well as the Gu family's subordinates all around the place had to obey orders.

"I have my reasons. You must take it." Gu Yicheng forcefully dispelled the thought of returning.

"Fine." Yun Qianliang retracted her tired hands and hung the jade pendant on her waist, "But we haven't caught the culprit yet, I need to investigate the case. I'm not free right now, let's talk about the pick later."

Gu San stood at the side and looked at the piece of jade changing owners. He wanted to say something, but he endured it in the end.

"Forget it." Gu Yicheng said helplessly, "Gu San, go pick one for her."

"Yes." Gu San accepted the order and asked: "What kind of servants does Madam want?"

Yun Qianliang frowned, she was selecting the people who would be by her side in the future, and she had to pick some that would look good for him.

Seeing Yun Qianliang in a difficult situation, the Gu San understood and said: "Madam is not in a hurry, I can think about it slowly."

"No need." Yun Qianliang spoke out her own request, "Just pick a few to get rich."

Gu Yicheng could not hold back his laughter again, he covered his mouth and laughed, his eyebrows arched even further.

Lucky person, this was a description?

Gu San's eyebrows twitched, he modestly asked, "What kind of person is considered to be rich?"

"Luck, fortune, luck, and loyalty." Yun Qianliang counted with her fingers, "To be able to gather all of them is for the best, if not, then at least I have a chance."

Gu San: "..."

How are you picking the attendants? You're clearly looking for someone suitable to go to the casino.

"That's all. You can decide on the rest." Yun Qianliang flipped out of the window and continued her jogging exercises.

Yun Qianliang's figure gradually moved further and further away, submerged in the shallow darkness.

Gu San waited for Master to change before he could not resist asking, "Master, do you believe in Madam?"

Gu Yicheng, who was changing his clothes behind the screen, moved smoothly.

"Gu San, don't you think she's fun?" Gu Yicheng asked, and it was hard to hide the smile in his words.

"Then, you gave the secret token to Madam here to play with her and probe if she would hand it over to Yun Xiang Mansion or Yun Xiang Mansion?" The Gu San had always been concerned about Yun Qianliang and his little affair with the Jin Wang, and suspected that she would betray the Gu Xiangfu.

"No, I just wanted to." Gu Yicheng answered lightly and thought of a matter, then instructed: "Inform me where my wife will go in the future, and there is no need to report to me about anything she has done. If she wants to do anything, she can only secretly help, and cannot be stopped."

Since he decided to give the secret token to Yun Qianliang, he wouldn't pursue the matter of her and Song Shujin's past.

From today onwards, she was his wife, and he had no intention of letting her go.

If all of these were her methods of acting, he wouldn't mind learning from the Tianhui Emperor and doing a wicked deed. In any case, he already married into her family, so it wouldn't be easy for him to leave her.
