The maid brought a bowl of bird's nest to the room where Gu Tangli was resting, "Miss Gu, this is what the Third Master asked me to bring."

Gu Tangli had just finished vomiting and hadn't recovered yet. She said tiredly, "Put it there. I can't drink it."

"Yes."

The maid left. Gu Tangli felt a little drowsy and exhausted, but she didn't dare to fall asleep here.

"let's go."

As soon as I stepped out of the door, I was stopped.

"Third Master asked you to eat before leaving."

Gu Tangli's expression was slightly tense, "I want to leave now."

Mu Jin even drew the sword from her waist, and walked over to Wen Yuchen who was in a stalemate, and asked gracefully, "What happened?"

"Stop us from leaving, what does this mean?"

Wen Yuchen said gently, "Han Zhou just wants to keep you for a meal, don't worry."

Her second sixth sense told her that it was dangerous to stay there, but since it was just her and Mu Jin, confronting them head-on was not a good option.

"I don't want to stay in the house and feel bored."

"Then I'll walk with you in the garden." Wen Yuchen comforted her and said to the maid, "Go and call the prince over."

With a sullen face, she followed him for a walk in the garden. They stopped by the pond and she felt too sunburned to go under the willow tree.

It is backed by a big tree, blocking out a lot of sight.

She lowered her voice and asked, "Did you find anything?"

That's right, she took the risk to make this trip, not to see Gu Hanzhou, but to see Wen Yuchen.

Wen Yuchen said in an inaudible voice, "He is very cautious, including being on guard against me."

"The only thing that is certain is that the enemy is within."

The two of them exchanged a few words in a low voice, and Gu Tangli said, "Why do I feel like he has other ideas and wants to keep me for another purpose?"

When Gu Hanzhou arrived, he saw her sitting under a willow tree to enjoy the cool air, while Wen Yuchen was staring at her from a distance.

"You're in such a hurry to leave right after you got here. It seems like Lili doesn't miss me at all."

Gu Tangli said tiredly and weakly, "I just vomited and don't want to eat anything. I just want to go back and have a good rest right away."

"Then if I want you to stay with me, what should Lili do?" He said with a smile.

Gu Tangli's hair stood on end at once and she became nervous. Her face remained expressionless, but she had already clenched the flying knife tightly under her wide sleeves.

The atmosphere was strange, and the maid said in a panic, "Third Master, the King of Xiang has brought people in."

Gu Tangli breathed a sigh of relief without realizing it and completely relaxed.

Gu Hanzhou frowned, and a cold look flashed in his eyes. What a troublesome woman, but now is not the time to tear each other apart.

Before he could think more, Wu Jin put the sword on the maid's neck and forced her to lead the way. The group had already arrived.

Gu Hanzhou instantly put away his hostility and transformed into Master Ning San.

"Why did the prince come here suddenly? He scared me."

Jiang Xue Ning was wearing a neat purple riding outfit today, holding a horse whip in her hand, with a cold look between her brows.

She said dissatisfiedly, "Tangli has been out for most of the day and hasn't come back yet. I'm afraid someone with bad intentions will take her away directly."

The only thing missing was to say that he had bad intentions, for fear that he would take the opportunity to take the person away.

She is really a vigilant and difficult person. Gu Hanzhou said calmly without changing his expression, "Ning is not that kind of person. If I want to marry Tangli, I will definitely go through three consultations and six betrothals, and marry her in a sedan chair with eight people."

"Oh, you'd better be." Jiang Xue Ning swung the whip in her hand, "Anyone who dares to touch my Gu family will be killed wherever he goes."

Gu Hanzhou explained, "I wanted to keep Tangli for dinner, and then personally send her back home. Since the prince is here, please do me the honor of staying for dinner."

With a glance from her, Qinghe walked over and helped Gu Tangli, who was sitting on the ground, up.

"No need for meals, the king will take it away."

After saying this, he swaggered out of the mansion with his men.

Gu Hanzhou played his part to the end, personally escorting the person to the door, and reluctantly watched him get on the carriage, "Tangli, I'll go to the palace to see you in two days."

Gu Tangli didn't say anything, and Qinghe lowered the car curtain.

Only after the carriage had gone far away did he completely turn cold and sneer, "She arrived just in time."

Wen Yuchen's eyes flickered slightly, and he savored these words in his heart. What he meant was that if Jiang Xue Ning hadn't arrived in time, he would have done something instead of letting her go so easily.

"It must be just a coincidence. He came here on purpose to cause trouble."

Gu Hanzhou didn't say anything more and turned to go into the inn.

In the carriage, Gu Tangli looked very weak. Qinghe made her a cup of honey water. She drank two sips and said, "Thank you for picking me up, sister. I am sorry to bother you again."

Jiang Xue Ning said indifferently, "It's not a problem. As long as you know what you are doing, that's all."

There was no conversation along the way. When she returned to the palace, she said weakly, "Then I will go back and rest first."

Jiang Xuening nodded, and watched Mu Jin help her walk away. Then she said, "Find a way to contact the big boss behind Shanshuiju for me."

Wu Jin hesitated and said, "Will this alert the enemy?"

"It doesn't matter." She smiled and said, "He is on my territory now. He has to lie down on his stomach even if he is a tiger, and coil up even if he is a dragon. I just want him to know that I don't trust him and I don't worry about him. I have been watching him secretly."

Anyway, she is not the one who is anxious, nor is she the one under pressure. As long as you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door.

Gu Tangli was really tired and uncomfortable, so she went back to her room and fell asleep immediately.

Chan Yi came to see her, and waited until no one woke up in the evening, then left in a unhappy mood.

When she woke up, it was already late at night.

Mu Jin immediately had someone bring her the chicken soup porridge. It was obvious that the kitchen was very attentive and it was fresh and not greasy.

She used half a bowl to warm her stomach, and then she felt alive again.

After dinner, everyone left and she and Mu Jin were the only ones left in the study. Only then did she completely relax.

Carefully pondering everything that happened during the day, Wen Yuchen never said useless words. Moreover, he had followed Gu Hanzhou for a long time and was very favored by him.

"The enemy is within..."

She murmured these four words softly, savoring them, and the more she savored them, the more she felt something was not right.

It is unlikely to be in Mobei, so it can only be in Xiangchu. This also explains why Gu Hanzhou would take such a risk to enter Xiangchu in person.

She never thought it was because of her, she wasn't that attractive. Gu Hanzhou loved to say that she was a rebellious person, in a sense, although he used her, he never really trusted her completely.

Seeing her like this, Mu Jin said worriedly, "I feel like the current situation is not something we can handle alone."

"Ah..." She sighed softly, "Let me think about it. I always feel that the time is not yet ripe."

The light in the study stayed on until midnight, and she kept analyzing and reviewing the situation over and over again, trying to find clues.
