For two consecutive days, almost all of Gu Daiyan was thrown onto the bed by Duan Chengxuan.

She was accustomed to this, and even An Mo was no longer unfamiliar with Duan Chengxuan. When she followed ghosts and ghosts to cultivate her basics, she even saw An Mo circle around Duan Chengxuan.

Once again, Phantom Demon corrected her actions, and he didn't forget to carefully point out Duan Chengxuan's threatening gaze. "Your Highness, if you continue to be absent-minded, then you won't be able to play with this little girl anymore."

"Ghost, why didn't I realize before that you could still threaten people?"

Gu Danyan had no choice but to calm down and concentrate on her basic martial arts skills. When the time came for an incense stick to burn, she was already sweating profusely.

Duan Chenxuan's pair of venomous eyes never came down from behind ghosts. She only saw Gu Liuyan trembling in fear and she could only treat her like a porcelain doll.

After practicing for the whole morning, Gu Pingyan became more spirited, and his face became more rosy. In the afternoon, he took Mo to run around crazily, and when he returned to the Heavenly Flame, he saw a group of people rushing towards the palace.

A'Mo snuggled into Gu Liuyan's arms: "What are they doing in such a hurry?"

"I don't know." Gu Qing Yan rubbed her head. He looked at the sky and thought that Meng Xu should be waiting for her at the Wind Listening Pavilion.

Little Mo had been mad for two days now, so he should bring it back to Meng Xu. Otherwise, Xu Youwei would worry.

Arriving at the Wind Listening Pavilion, Liu'er was sitting next to Meng Xu, talking about the matters regarding the Heaven Flame. Seeing the two of them stop, Ah Mo widened his eyes and rushed over.

Meng Xu held him tightly as he looked at Gu Mingyan, "I've troubled you for the past few days."

"No worries, Mo is very obedient." When Gu Danyan sat down, he did not forget to order someone to bring him some light pastries. He then continued, "The results of the Spring Festival Gala will be out tomorrow, right?"

"It's about time. Today, someone has come to find me." Feeling helpless, Meng Xu continued, "I've also asked around for a while and found a few scholars who share a similar taste as me."

As he said this, Meng Xu carefully recited a few names and Gu Daiyan recorded them down. He wanted to find a time to investigate them.

"It's just that I've recently decided to take advantage of this opportunity to properly practice martial arts. I'm afraid that I can't come out and meet you. If there's anything you need, you can come find me at the medicine house." Gu Liuyan smiled and nodded. She took out her silver ornament and handed it to him: "If I'm not here, you can go to the Prince's Mansion and find me there."

Meng Xu nodded in agreement. He still wanted to say something, but Gu Danyan had already left in a hurry.

Only Liu'er looked longingly at Gu Danyan's back before continuing to speak to Meng Xu, "Your Highness, you're usually very busy."

Meng Xu sipped a mouthful of tea and nodded.

As expected, as soon as Gu Daiyan left the Wind Listening Pavilion, he walked over to the inn that was about to open. Just as he reached the door from the backyard, he saw the kitchen cooking in full bloom, and Qi Lin was looking for a servant.

Yin Gou, on the other hand, had a taste with the Zhu siblings and was extremely busy.

Gu Mingyan felt helpless when she saw Ye Zichen's happy look. As soon as she walked over, Qi Lin sat up from her chair and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I have something to talk to Zhu Yan about." Gu Danyan waved his hand and followed Zhu Yan to the inner room.

Zhu Yan clearly understood what she meant before, so he directly said, "Don't forget that Duke Jing knows our identities. We can't help you with this matter."

"So what if Duke Jing knows? "If the Emperor really wanted to kill you guys, you'd have died a long time ago." Gu Daiyan's words were ambiguous, but he was more or less guessing.

Originally, the Sixth Prince had achieved great merits by sweeping away the mirage, but later on, Duan Chengye went to the border gate in order to gain merits. It was clear that the mirage was not a great achievement, and once the Sixth Prince had left, no one cared about the mirage.

Therefore, she guessed, they thought the mirage was not capable of raising any storm waves.

"King Jing holds the military power."

"However, there might not only be one mirage in the martial arts world." Gu Liuyan's eyes lit up as she continued: "You are in the Sky Flame, and the Jing King has tried to find out if he can't find you guys. He suspects that someone is making trouble under the guise of a mirage."

"King Jing is probing us. How could we dare to act against them?" Zhu Yan was even more confused.

"The one who did it, was me." Gu Mingyan raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhu Yan helplessly: "Maybe I didn't write it clearly in my letter. All you have to do is settle down that someone in the martial arts world used the mirage as a cover and leave the rest to me."

As the sound of his voice faded, Zhu Yan's expression sank. "Why are you acting this way towards Prince Jing?"

"The word revenge is nothing else."

Zhu Yan agreed immediately. Almost all of the matters that he had to take care of were resolved by Gu Liuyan himself. They could do nothing but look at the inn and say: "Are you not afraid of implicating your servant girl?"

"The reason I let you stay here is to tell you that I definitely won't let you get into danger. In the future, I will only come here from time to time to collect some poison, and I definitely won't appear here." Gu Danyan lowered her eyes and stood up. She didn't even say anything before she had already left.

She could not involve Yin Qiufu in this matter. Zhu Yan and the Scarlet Scorpion had already returned to their right side. Even if their ancestors were tormented, they would still be willing to suffer.

He returned to the medicine house alone. The lively yesterday was no longer with him, and only Qing Dai came out. "Your Highness said that there seemed to be movement at the border. He rushed out on his horse."

This way, I can be at peace for a few days." Gu Liuyan sighed. He saw a ghost crouching on the eaves like a cat. He was clearly dressed in black, but he was still holding a red date in his arms. It was really eye-catching.

"That's right, ghosts still stayed, saying that they wanted to teach you martial arts." Qing Dai quickly said.

Gu Mingyan and ghost stared at each other. After a while, Gu Pingyan chuckled and waved him over: "Come down, I'll take you guys to a restaurant for a good meal."

The ghost rubbed his head and jumped down.

After bringing the two to the Hundred Flavors Tower, Gu Danyan took advantage of the ghost being caught unawares and pulled off the black cloth over his face.

"Pfft ~ ~" The ghost was so shocked that he spat out a string of syllables, but both Blue Dai and Gu Daiyan could not understand what he meant.

Gu Danyan was amused by him. He tried to cover his face with his hands when he saw the ghost. He handed over a cup of wine: "I didn't expect you to be so fair and delicate."

This ghost was very young, white and clean. When paired with his gentle face, his almond-shaped eyes were not as cold as before.

Qing Dai covered her mouth and chuckled, she then awkwardly took the wine cup and muttered, "Isn't it because she looks too white and tender that she has to wear a veil? "And why did you suddenly …"

"I just want to catch them off guard." Gu Liuyan smiled at her. The previous Cheng Er was still loyal to Duan Chengxuan, but she didn't know if this ghost would care about her feelings. So she smiled and said, "Your highness asked you to wear this piece of black cloth all day, right?"
