C184

After dawn, Gu Shiyi took her leave first. Although she was unwilling, her rationality prevented her from doing anything emotional.

On this point, Lan Yenao was the same as her. Even though he wanted to urge his to stay, he did not say a single word in the end.

As she turned her head, two handsome men appeared in front of her. One was black and the other white. One was cold and the other hot.

"Mo Sheng, Qian Mian greets the princess!"

Gu Shiyi was confused, she turned to look at Lan Yenao, only to see him nodding to her, and she realised that the two of them were the people Lan Yenao asked her to bring away.

"It's done, let's go!"

Gu Shiyi merely paused for a moment in front of Qian Mian, and then walked out of the study without looking back.

Situ Jing must have been waiting anxiously for his. He initially told him that it would only take four hours, but who would have known, that he and Lan Yenao would not be able to stop talking.

When she thought about Lan Yenao, the corner of Gu Shiyi's mouth couldn't help but curl up. She didn't know how the other fathers and daughters got along with each other, but she did know that this was the father and daughter mode she wanted to get along with the most.

There was no respect, no reverence, no caution. There was only the ease of a friend.

Mo Sheng looked at each other and quickly followed. In his heart, he secretly cursed, this was indeed the prince's daughter.

Situ Jing, dressed in profound silk clothes, was leaning on the carriage like beautiful jade. Both of his arms were crossed, and the moment he saw Gu Shiyi, his lips curled up into a smile.

Gu Shiyi suddenly felt that even though Situ Jing's appearance had long been engraved in her mind, every time they met, she would always have the mentality of a little girl who was her first love.

Gu Shiyi slowly walked towards Situ Jing. Just as she finished stepping on the steps to the Duke Palaces, Situ Jing also took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand towards Gu Shiyi. The two of them held hands together, their ten fingers interlocked.

Qian Mian suddenly waved his fan. With a meaningful smile on his face, he continued to wave the fan in his hand, it seemed like the mission given to him by the Duke was a long way off.

Mo Sheng was still his ice-cold face that had not changed for ten thousand years. It was as if Lan Yenao's explanation had long ago floated away from his right ear, and the scene before his eyes also had nothing to do with her.

Gu Shiyi and Situ Jing went into the carriage together, while Qian Mian and Mo Sheng rode on fine horses, following the carriage from a distance. They did not disturb the carriage nor land.

Because Gu Shiyi had not slept for the entire night, the moment she sat on the carriage, she leaned on Situ Jing's legs and entered into dreamland.

Situ Jing heard the faint sounds of horse hooves behind the carriage, the disdain in his eyes was not concealed at all, he did not know what Lan Yenao's intentions were, but, it all depended on if they had the ability to do so.

"Why don't you ask who those two people are?"

The moment Gu Shiyi woke up, she saw Situ Jing smiling gently in front of him. Her face immediately flushed red, and the atmosphere in the carriage rose up abruptly.

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Gu Shiyi hurriedly brought up the topic.

"Those two people are the Regent's trusted aides. Other than protecting you, I can't think of anything else for him to hand them over to you!"

Situ Jing pulled Gu Shiyi into his embrace, and caressed her back without stopping.

"You won't be angry!"

Gu Shiyi said half jokingly, half seriously.

"How could that be!?" "Although I am unable to put you in danger, but you're not afraid of ten thousand, just in case!"

Situ Jing slightly narrowed his eyes. He was referring to the matter of Gu Shiyi being kidnapped by him. At that time, if Qian Mian and Mo Sheng were here, how could such an accident have happened to Gu Shiyi?

After the carriage had travelled for one day and one night, it finally arrived at the Saint Spirit Manor where Ning Family was.

However, at this moment, other than a pile of ruins that had been burnt to ashes, there was not a single trace of life that could be seen in front of their eyes.

Regarding this, Situ Jing seemed to have already predicted it, and was not the least bit surprised.

"They say that even if the Ning Family were to fall from the sky, it would still be richer than an entire country. This mansion made of gold, carvings, and jade, is actually on fire!"

Qian Mian waved his fan, the sneer on his face was self-evident. A gust of cold wind blew past, causing him to unconsciously sneeze.

Gu Shiyi turned his head and looked at Qian Mian who was dressed in thin clothes, along with the folding fan in his hands, she shook his head helplessly.

"Let's go down and take a look!"

After Situ Jing finished speaking, he looked at Gu Shiyi and flew down towards the ruins below him. Soon after, Qian Mian and Mo Sheng also flew down.

"Look at you shivering with cold. I really want to rip that fan of yours apart!"

When Mo Sheng flew past Qian Mian, he did not forget to whisper these words into his ear.

Qian Mian rubbed the tip of his nose, he did not say anything more, making a fool of himself in front of Gu Shiyi was already enough to make him feel embarrassed, and with this kind of words, how was he supposed to maintain his handsome and confident look in front of Gu Shiyi!

By the time the two of them had landed on the ground, Gu Shiyi and Situ Jing had already reached the deepest part of the Villa.

Because of the poison, Gu Shiyi had slept for a very long time during that period of time. Thus, Gu Shiyi simply did not sleep for a few days.

It was also at this time that Gu Shiyi discovered the secret that Ning Qingqing's room had.

It was because she saw Ning Qingqing enter the bedroom with her own eyes. However, when Gu Shiyi followed her, she realized that there was no one there.

Although he had discovered this, it was close to Lan Yenao's birthday at that time, so he did not have time to investigate.

Thinking about it now, there must be a secret room or passage in Ning Qingqing's room.

When they had just gone up the mountain, they did not find any traces of a large group of people walking past, and the only road out of the villa was that one.

Gu Shiyi did not believe that all of them would be buried in this sea of fire.

Although Situ Jing and his group were travelling in the same direction, it seemed that the place he was looking for was different from Gu Shiyi's group.

After a quick search, Situ Jing finally found half of a burnt jade token in a pile of black ashes.

Right at this moment, a wineskin appeared in front of Situ Jing. Situ Jing raised his head and Qian Mian had a smile on his face.

"Thank you!"

After Situ Jing finished speaking, he took the pouch and poured out the wine, which clearly marked the jade tablet. Very quickly, the jade tablet was washed clean, and the engravings and diagrams were clearly visible.

"Blessed? "The heavens are set?"

Qian Mian stood in front of Situ Jing, looked at the engraved half of the jade tablet in his hands, and gently recited it!
