The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

In a dark corner, a man in a dark hooded cloak walked out slowly. His hat brim hung low, and the shadow covered his eyebrows, leaving only the lower half of his fair face exposed.

The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and his delicate jawline revealed a cold temperament under the cold moonlight.

Even though only part of the face could be seen, it was enough to make one imagine how delicate the facial features hidden beneath the brim of the hat were.

Jiang Nansheng was much taller than Gu Jinchu, and when he looked at her straight in the eye, he could only see his Adam's apple rolling when he spoke.

Gu Jinchu retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes to see the intertwined shadows of the two people on the ground, and whispered again:

"Master Jiang, I accidentally found a Japanese slave. Now I suspect there are some bad guys not far ahead. I wonder if Master Jiang can help?"

In his previous life, Gu Jinchu knew that Jiang Fei, who was beside Jiang Nansheng, was a top-notch master.

This is the open one, and there are also people who protect him in secret. They are a group of secret guards trained by the Jiang family, and they are absolutely loyal.

But, of course not.

Gu Jinchu doesn’t need it for the time being.

She is a girl who cannot be an official in the court, so what is the use of fame and honor? With the attitude of Gu's family, who knows what kind of trouble they will cause.

The last time she caught a Japanese slave in the street, her arrogant and violent behavior was greater than her bravery, and her reputation was already very bad. She didn't care about these things, and didn't want to worry her mother and grandmother anymore.

Regardless of whether the Japanese invaders can be found or not, pushing the matter to the Jiang family is the best option for Gu Jinchu at the moment.

When Jiang Nansheng heard what Jiang An said when he came back, his first feeling was that Gu Jinchu was being retaliated against.

The Japanese slaves she exposed in the street that day implicated many people after being interrogated at the Dali Temple.

If someone harbors hatred towards Gu Jinchu, it is not impossible for him to do something.

Just thinking of this made him rush to Gu's house without stopping.

I found the marks left by Jiang Fei along the way and followed him here.

Seeing Gu Jinchu getting off the green-curtained carriage, he felt relieved.

The feeling of surviving a disaster made him unsure of what he would do if something happened to her.

On the way here, he thought about how to convince her to let him intervene in this matter.

Unexpectedly, Gu Jinchu not only did not care about Jiang Fei's attack on her guards, but also took the initiative to stand up and seek help from him.

"Your guards can't withstand three moves from Jiang Fei. The third young lady of the Gu family is really brave."

Jiang Nansheng paused after he finished speaking. His original intention was to let her know the danger, but he forgot that she was not yet an adult. It would be embarrassing to say such things to a little girl.

Gu Jinchu raised his head. The man's hat had been taken off at some point. His tall nose bridge seemed to be carefully carved by God, adding a bit of nobility.

The fifth son of the Jiang family is as gentle as jade. The softest feature of his facial features is his pair of dark eyes. He always has a gentle smile on his face, which makes people ignore his intentionally hidden edge.

What she loved and was obsessed with the most was his eyes.

But now it’s different, she doesn’t want to be lost in these eyes anymore.

"Sir Jiang, I don't think now is the time to preach. It will be dark soon!" Gu Jinchu was still young, and even though he was unhappy, there was still a hint of cuteness in his crisp voice.

As soon as the words came out, she felt very dissatisfied.

A little soft, a little delicate, and has already lost a lot in terms of momentum.

"Okay... tell me what happened and how you found out." The man's gentle and low voice sounded in her ears.

Gu Jinchu tilted his head uncomfortably, and his delicate and white fingertips cleaned the side of his ear.

It briefly and roughly describes Bai Wei's abnormality, hiding the fact that she can speak Japanese.

...

"hold me!"

Gu Jinchu felt that the thick night was too dark, and she actually heard nervousness in Jiang Nansheng's tone.

How can it be?

She had seen how decisive he was in killing people when he was the Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, and she had also heard that when Jiang Nansheng first took office as the Minister of the Dali Temple, he not only personally revised the Imperial Prison Law, but also added many more terrifying punishments.

Many people could not believe that the young genius who was as famous as the moon and the top scholar who was renowned throughout the world for his extraordinary appearance could be the bloodthirsty and ruthless "Jade-faced Judge".

"I was forced by the situation and took offense."

Jiang Nansheng pulled the black cloak over her, and the two of them merged into one in the night.

The body beneath her palms was warm and tight, and the feel told her that he was still wearing the lake blue shirt.

Is that why he wears this dark cloak on the outside?

Gu Jinchu only felt that his body jumped high up, and then like a short flight, landed lightly on the tree branch.

The man's heartbeat was so violent that it seemed like it was about to burst through her chest.

Jiang Nansheng took her into Wang Qi's yard. The two of them hid on a big tree in front of the main room and could clearly see everything that happened in the house.

There were at least seven or eight dishes on the dining table in the main hall, including chicken, duck, fish and meat. Soon, three men came out.

One of them is Wang Qi, Bai Wei’s brother as described by Gao De. He is short and wears a plain robe.

The two men were about the same height as him, both short and strong men.

Gu Jinchu whispered in Jiang Nansheng's ear: "The one holding the wine pot is Bai Wei's brother, Wang Qi."

The warm and humid breath made his earlobes quickly turn red as if dripping blood in the night.

She merely turned her head, without taking her eyes or ears away from the three talking men.

Therefore, he did not notice that his lips accidentally brushed across Jiang Nansheng's ear bone, causing his breathing to become uncontrollable and disordered.

A man took the wine glass and drank it all, then turned to look at the two people and said, "The envoy has arrived in Shengjing."

"In the battle of Sanjiang Fortress, Prince Huailiang's Western Expedition Army was defeated." When they got to the exciting part, their language changed to the Fuso dialect they were familiar with.

"I heard that the envoy intends to negotiate a truce through marriage."

"The land here is fertile. If we can move the capital to Shengjing in the future, we will also go down in history."

"A name that will be passed down through the ages? Do you know who the envoy is? The unpopular daughter of Prince Huailiang. I heard that she swore an oath before she came to serve the emperor till death..."

...

Before they could finish their words, they looked at each other, holding their chests and vomiting large mouthfuls of dirty blood.

Almost instantly, the three men were bleeding from all seven orifices and lying in the food that they had not yet finished eating.

Gu Jinchu covered his mouth when he saw this, and the scene in front of him was covered by a big hand.

In the darkness, she seemed to be embraced by the man from behind, and her breath was filled with his pleasant and familiar scent.

She pulled the man's hand down and said, "I'm not afraid."

Those who have died once died much more miserably than them.

What does she have to be afraid of!
