Thinking about Gu Shiyi's reaction during the day and seeing that she still continued to ignore him, Qian Mochen became slightly sad. Without wasting any more words, he went straight to the point, "Shangguan Xianyue is the favorite princess of the Emperor of Great Liu Kingdom Shangguan Longwu, and also the only victorious female general in Great Liu Kingdom. Furthermore, he is the only woman who participates in politics.

Ever since he fell in love with Situ Jing on the battlefield ten years ago, he has never married at all.

Qian Mochen's voice paused for a moment, and his gaze never left Gu Shiyi's face. There wasn't the slightest bit of change in Gu Shiyi's expression throughout the entire process, so he was completely unable to guess what she was thinking at this moment.

"In the entire Great Liu Kingdom, her power is only second to the Emperor. This kind of woman is not one you can easily offend."

Gu Shiyi did not say anything, but Qian Mochen continued to add on, she hoped that Gu Shiyi had some self-awareness, no matter what aspect it was, Shangguan Xianyue was not someone that she could afford to offend. If she were to persevere, it would be like shooting moths into the flame, and using an egg to hit a rock, but he did not wish for her to lose to nothing in a game with no chance of winning.

"So, should I give the position of wangfei to her?"

Gu Shiyi's face still did not change at all, but the cold smile on the corner of her mouth that seemed to be there sold her out.

She was forced to marry Situ Jing, becoming the princess consort of the Duke Palace, and nothing was her will. Right now, when she had already resigned herself to her fate, another person had appeared out of nowhere and wanted her to give up!

What did these people take her, Gu Shiyi, for? Even a mud man would have a bit of character, let alone her, Gu Shiyi.

Qian Mochen's eyes flashed with astonishment, he did not mean that, why would Gu Shiyi say that?

"You know, although we haven't known each other for long, you are still my Thousand Star Pavilion's second Pavilion Master after all. I just do not wish for you to go against Shangguan Xianyue, as long as you don't act rashly!"

Qian Mochen and Shangguan Xianyue were people of completely different levels. As long as she was obedient a little, it would be fine.

"I got it, this is Situ Jing and I's room. Do you think that it's appropriate for you to appear here now?"

Gu Shiyi had a face full of ill intentions. She believed that Qian Mochen was also someone who knew a thing or two about Capital Xia.

"Gu Shiyi, I think you did it on purpose!"

Qian Mochen stood up in a slight panic, suddenly realizing that the distance between him and Gu Shiyi just now was just too ambiguous. If Situ Jing had really seen him, then things would have been even worse, and after hastily throwing down those words, he immediately disappeared from the room, and the room became deathly silent once again.

"Little Snow, tell me, what should I do?"

Gu Shiyi stroked the Silver Snow Snake on the right side of the embroidered box and muttered to herself.

Of course she knew that she was not Shangguan Xianyue's match, but, even if she did not take the initiative to provoke Shangguan Xianyue, would Shangguan Xianyue let her go?

But the answer was obvious!

A woman whose power was second only to the emperor. She knew how domineering and tyrannical such a woman was.

She had completely disregarded the upcoming New Year competition and rushed over to the Great Xia Kingdom, only to stop her wedding with Situ Jing. But now, she and Situ Jing had already been married for four days, so everything was set in stone.

Gu Shiyi squinted, she was thinking, if she was Shangguan Xianyue, what would she do?

Of course it was to kill her! Killing a person was as easy as flipping his hand to Shangguan Xianyue, who possessed unparalleled authority.

Even if she were to take the initiative to request for Situ Jing to give up his wife and leave the Prince Su Palace, she would not allow her to live in this world anymore.

Furthermore, she had already taken the initiative to slap Shangguan Xianyue on her face today, and with Shangguan Xianyue's skills, she believed that by this time, she would already know that the woman with a head full of dirt was her.

Therefore, no matter how careful she was, how much she endured and how much she retreated, Shangguan Xianyue would never let her off!

Rather than this, he might as well give it his all and have a chance at survival.

Furthermore, patience and retreat was not her style. Even if she, Gu Shiyi, risked her life, she would not be stomped on the ground by others. Even if she died, she would die an earth-shattering death.

Suddenly, the Silver Snow Snake in the embroidered box straightened its body. Its eyes were full of vigilance, and it continuously spat out the snake's tongue as a warning.

"You here?"

Gu Shiyi asked. Although she had obtained silence, she already knew in her heart.

She did not hear the sound of the door being broken in as expected, but instead, she heard the sound of blades clashing and swords clashing. Roughly a quarter of an hour later, the sound stopped, and Gu Shiyi hurriedly walked out the room. What entered her eyes was the corpses of the black clothed men, and the black clothed men, who had saved Gu Shiyi earlier today, were also cleaning up the mess on the ground together with the guards in the residence.

"Princess!"

When the black clothed man and the guards saw Gu Shiyi walking over, they immediately half kneeled with a face full of respect.

"Are our people hurt?"

Gu Shiyi was a little surprised. In the daytime, she had already known that Situ Jing had sent people to protect her, but she hadn't expected that he would send so many.

"In reply to the wangfei, only Bai Liu and Bai Jiu are slightly injured, the rest are safe and sound."

The black clothed man continued to show his respect. Anyone that the king thought highly of, they would definitely serve until the end with their lives.

"Bai Liu, Bai Jiu, do you have Bai Yi, Bai Yi, Bai Er, and Bai Eleven? What's your ranking?"

Gu Shiyi was a little speechless. Was the people of this world lazy or something?

"Reporting to Princess, subordinate Bai San, there was previously a Bai Eleven. But a month ago, Prince changed the name of Bai Eleven to Bai 81!"

Even though the reason for the prince's change in name wasn't stated, everyone in the entire Bai Yi Pavilion could guess, that the person who was originally ranked eleventh suddenly became eighty-one without any objections. He understood, he truly understood.

"Can you find out who these people belong to?"

Gu Shiyi nodded her head, as she had already guessed the reason behind Situ Jing changing her name, and her face immediately flushed red. However, taking advantage of the darkness, he was not seen by Bai San and the rest.

"To reply wangfei, these people are all deathsworn."

That is, there was no proof.

"Understood, you guys can leave first, Bai San will stay!"

Gu Shiyi turned and walked into the side hall of the main courtyard. After waving away Lv Zhu and the others who were preparing to follow him, Bai San also followed.

"What do you all mean by this?"

Gu Shiyi pointed at a poppy flower that was as big as a fingernail on Bai San's black clothes and collar.
