Gu Qingli swept her gaze across the room and realized that she didn't have the most gorgeous beauty like last time, Xin Ning. She sneered: "Who let you in?"
"Naturally, it is the Prince." The other girls on the bed also laughed.
"What about him? Wouldn't it be a waste of the beauty's grace to let all of you stay here empty-handed? " Gu Qingli stared at her, vaguely remembering that her name was Wen'er.
"Oh …" Wen`er glanced at Gu Qing Li, and her tone seemed to have dragged it a long way. "Your highness, naturally he's in Xinning's room. He just finished drinking with us sisters, so he got a little drunk. Xin Ning helped him up …"
Gu Qing Li looked coldly at Wen'er. There seemed to be endless possibilities in his words, but it was very likely that there was nothing at all. He was purposely trying to make her lose her composure. This little trick was not even in her eyes.
"Since the prince is not here, you can all leave." "Before you leave, clean up this place, including the smell you left behind."
The girls were stunned.
Gu Qingli continued to point at the bed. "Change all the bedding and bedsheets. Even the mosquito nets must be new."
Wen'er suddenly laughed. "You must be joking, Madame Gu?"
"I'm very tired today, so I'm not in the mood to joke with you. If anything inside the house doesn't change completely within two hours, all of you should change into men's clothes and go to the river to work with Cheng Kung."
Wen'er's eyes suddenly opened so wide that it seemed as if her eyeballs were about to fall out.
Gu Qingli couldn't be bothered with them and turned to leave.
Xin Ning's room door was ajar. Although Gu Qing Li had assigned three rooms for them, and the six girls were supposed to be divided into one and two people, Xin Ning's position was clearly different. She lived alone in one room, allowing the other three to squeeze in.
Gu Qingli took a deep breath and pushed the door open. She didn't smell the strong scent of makeup. Instead, it had a faint fragrance. She looked around and saw two vases placed in the middle of the living room. There were all kinds of flowers, and the fragrance was coming from them.
This room also had an inner chamber. Gu Qingli sneered and pushed open the similarly unlocked inner chamber.
At this time, it was already dusk. The last rays of the setting sun fell upon the house, illuminating everything within with incomparable clarity.
There was no screen, so Gu Qingli could clearly see two people lying on the bed. The weather was hot and stuffy, and neither of them had anything on them. The woman on the outside had bare arms, elegant hibiscus embroidered on her corset, and her skin was whiter than snow. The man inside had his back facing inward, but his clothes were snow-white, and his black hair was scattered about by the pillow. He looked like Xiao Yi Xiu.
Gu Qing abruptly descended, and even his footsteps slowed down.
When the woman heard the voice, she turned around and sat up. She was not surprised at all. She gave a faint smile that was extremely charming and charming. It was Xin Ning.
"You're really something." Gu Qingli stared at her, unable to figure out her identity.
This woman had an elegant demeanor. She had thought that her background was extraordinary, but when she did something so shameless, she didn't seem ashamed at all. She was clearly not a lady from a noble family. For someone like Gu Qingxiao, even if she was shameless, she would still have a limit. How could he be as shameless as her?
"Get out of the way!" Gu Qingli pushed casually, but didn't use much strength.
Xin Ning suddenly raised her arm and twisted it. She made her move in a soft and quick manner. She was actually quite agile.
Gu Qingli was caught off guard and almost fell for her trick. She suddenly turned around, and the fire in her heart flared up. Fine, since this woman had some skills, she didn't plan on showing any mercy. Turning around, she ruthlessly struck out. Her attacks were sharp and merciless.
Xin Ning clearly didn't expect that the usually delicate and weak Imperial Concubine Gu would actually be this skilled. She was so shocked that she blocked the attack and was forced to retreat step by step.
After a dozen moves, Gu Qing Li subdued her and tied her up on the bed with a thin sheet. He kicked her along the way: "I didn't see that you actually know some martial arts. Who taught you this?"
Xin Ning lightly spat out a mouthful of blood. She only smiled a little, but then closed her mouth and didn't answer. She then looked at the bed.
Gu Qingli glanced at the bed, then walked over and grabbed the man's shoulder. Even if he was in a deep sleep, it was impossible for him to be sleeping like this.
Without any resistance, he turned over on his back and lay there motionless. His expression was calm, and his eyes were slightly closed.
Gu Qingli's face suddenly turned ashen, and her hands began to tremble — no matter what, she couldn't recognize her man. Regardless of whether he was tricked or not, her face was without a doubt that of Xiaoyi Xiu!
Gritting her teeth, she reached out her hand to test his breath, then swept it across his face.
Xin Ning suddenly smiled. "Don't try anymore. Even if he didn't want to, what should have happened has already happened. If he touches me, he must marry me!"
Gu Qingli took a deep breath and sneered, "So what if I touch you?" "What is your identity? Don't tell me he has to redeem a prostitute to marry her?"
Her face was calm, but her heart was filled with anger. Even she found it difficult to remain calm in the face of such a situation.
Xin Ning said slowly, "Do you know who I am?"
Gu Qingli didn't ask. She only looked at her quietly, knowing that she would say it herself.
"My surname is Ling, Ling Xinning, and I'm Ling YuanZhang's daughter."
Gu Qingli's heart shook. As expected! Her background was different from those girls. But why would the daughter of the Minister of the Civil Service come so far to such a place? Furthermore, with her skill, he didn't seem like a miss at all.
"Don't worry about why I'm here. Don't blame me for my skill. I'm the real Fourth Miss of the Ling family. If you don't believe me, you can send someone back to the capital to find out." This sort of thing cannot be faked, because when the time comes, one will have to change the Geng PSA and the betrothal gift. "
Ling Xinning struggled to get up and moved her bound wrist, "Are you still not going to untie me? "Even if you are the Third Miss of the Prime Minister, you won't be much more noble than me. Imperial Concubine Ling is my aunt."
Gu Qingli looked at her proud and provocative smile, and her anger skyrocketed. Suddenly, she raised her hand and slapped Ling Xinning, causing her cheeks to swell up.
Stunned, Ling Xinning's face suddenly changed as she angrily said, "You dare to hit me!"
"How about hitting you?" Gu Qingli said coldly, "You think I can't beat you because you're Ling Yuanzhang's daughter and Imperial Concubine Ling's niece? Prime Minister Gu's daughter can't beat you, but I'm acting as the wife of Prince Mo! When you seduced my husband, disregarding status, dignity, and honor, did you ever think that what you have lost is your parents' face? "
Ling Xinning's face alternated between green and red, and she could not answer. She fiercely bit her lower lip, and her eyes looked like they were about to spit fire.
Suddenly, a sound came from the bed. The two of them looked over and saw that Xiao Yixiu was moving. They slowly opened their eyes and looked around, then propped themselves up.
"Qing Li?" His voice was a little hoarse, and the doubt in his eyes deepened. "This King... "Where is this place?"
His gaze then landed on Ling Xinning, and held his forehead while saying, "This is … What was going on? This King did... "What?"
Gu Qingli bit her lip, suddenly not wanting to tell him anything. She turned and ran out.
Cheng Xi almost ran into Gu Qing Li, who was running like a madman. He cried out in alarm: "Gu Wei Fei, where are you going?"
His red clothes flew in the air like a cloud, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
