Surrounded by the men in black, Gu Qinghe put the things in his hand on the ground and asked Gao Cun in a low voice, "Are you sure?"

Gao Cun shook his head and warned Gu Qinghe in a low voice, "It's hard to say. I'll try my best to hold these people back for a while. You run out when you see a chance."

The man in black did not give Gu Qinghe and Gao Cun time to discuss. As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people swarmed over.

It can be seen that the target of these men in black is Gu Qinghe, and every move is aimed at taking his life.

This is not the time to be indecisive and show one's loyalty. These people want her life, and Gao Cun obeys Shao Wei's words. Shao Wei asked him to protect himself, so even if he is stabbed to pieces here today, he will never leave on his own.

Gu Qinghe knew that with Gao Cun's ability, if he ran away, Gao Cun might be able to escape unscathed. In just a moment, Gu Qinghe had figured out a plan.

She quietly opened the medicine powder in her sleeve, and when Gao Cun winked at her to run, she shouted to Gao Cun to hold his breath, then sprinkled the medicine powder at the men in black and ran away.

When the two of them were talking before, she had stuffed a lot of the medicine powder in her sleeve into Gao Cun's pocket.

The man in black had just dodged the powder sprinkled by Gu Qinghe, and was about to chase after him when he saw the man running away. However, he was caught off guard and was sprinkled with powder in the face by Gao Cun's wave of powder like a fairy scattering flowers, and wailing was heard everywhere.

The black-clothed man who had caught up must have been held back by Gao Cun. Gu Qinghe did not dare to delay. Her brain was extremely clear in the darkness, but it would take some time to run from here to the General's Mansion or Ming Mansion. She was not sure whether Gao Cun would still be alive when she returned with her men.

The best way was for her to run back to her residence and ask Uncle Fu to help Gao Cun first, and then she would go find other helpers.

She didn't dare to think or look back, she just ran forward until she was stopped by a pair of arms, then she came to her senses.

"Why are you running? Why do you look like you're being chased by a ghost?"

It’s Wei Yanzhou.

Gu Qinghe had no idea why this person was in his residence.

She had never seen him so pleasing to the eye. Wei Yanzhou only saw a light suddenly flashing in her panicked eyes, and she looked at him as if he was looking at a life-saving straw.

The illusion of being relied on for a moment made him breathe a little harder, "What's wrong?"

Gu Qinghe didn't even bother to break his hand away, and grabbed his wrist, "Where's your secret guard? Come with me!"

After all, she has been married to Wei Yanzhou for two years and knows Wei Yanzhou's abilities. Even if the skills of the secret guards around him are not as good as Gao Cun's, they are also extraordinary.

She ran slowly, and her legs felt weak when she stopped. She was afraid that she would delay and cause Gao Cun to get into trouble. Gu Qinghe quickly pointed in the direction she was running from, "Ask your secret guard to rescue someone over there, quickly, please."

Wei Yanzhou waved his hand and the secret guards hidden in the dark ran away. He frowned and looked serious, "Someone is chasing you?"

He looked Gu Qinghe up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that she was fine.

Gu Qinghe's wildly beating heart gradually calmed down. He glanced at Wei Yanzhou with mixed feelings.

The events of her past life made her somewhat angry at Wei Yanzhou and she had a lot of resentment towards him, but today he did help her.

Gu Qinghe thought, forget it, let’s just let go of everything that happened between me and Wei Yanzhou in the previous life.

She continued running the way she came. If Gao Cun was injured, she would have to treat him quickly. As for thanking him, she would do it after everything was ready.

Wei Yanzhou's secret guards arrived in time and Gao Cun was hit by two swords, but fortunately his life was not in danger.

Gao Cun originally wanted to capture someone alive and take him back, but when the men in black saw that help had arrived, they did not want to fight and scattered in a swarm. The one who was finally captured bit the poison between his teeth and committed suicide before he could even remove his jaw.

The secret guard supported the injured Gao Cun, and Gu Qinghe took him back to his residence to stop the bleeding and bandage him.

Uncle Fu saw several people coming in. He was shocked to see the injured Gao Cun and quickly checked Gu Qinghe. "Is the girl injured?"

"I'm not injured, Gao Cun is seriously injured. I'll help him stop the bleeding first. Uncle Fu, go to the General's Mansion and tell Shao Wei."

Uncle Fu was a little worried at first. He glanced at Wei Yanzhou who was standing behind Gu Qinghe, and then confirmed that his daughter trusted this man, so he quickly rushed towards the general's mansion.

Gao Cun's wounds were on her abdomen and shoulder blades, and she had to take off her clothes to apply the medicine. She didn't think it was a big deal, but Wei Yanzhou sighed beside her and insisted on taking the medicine to help her.

The veins on his forehead were throbbing, but Gu Qinghe endured it again and again, "Prince Wei, I am a doctor."

Not to mention that Gao Cun's injury today was in the abdomen, even if it was in the thigh root, she would still have to apply the medicine, not to mention that Gao Cun was injured in order to save her.

Well, if it wasn't life-threatening, maybe she could ask someone else to do it.

Wei Yanzhou shut up in disappointment but refused to leave, watching attentively from the side.

"These men in black are well-trained and their martial arts skills are not low. I think the owner must be quite powerful. How could you provoke such people?"

In fact, he already had some guesses in his mind. He was suspicious of Gu Qinghe's identity, so those people must be even more suspicious. Rather than letting the danger take a risk of killing a thousand people by mistake, it would be better to eliminate the danger first.

He wanted to remind Gu Qinghe not to fight against a rock with an egg, as it was meaningless.

But when he saw those determined eyes, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Just as Gao Cun's wound was bandaged, Shao Wei arrived. Uncle Fu led him in. Even though he had asked Uncle Fu on the way here to confirm that Gu Qinghe was okay, his eyes couldn't help but linger on her.

He looked up at Gao Cun's slightly resentful gaze and cleared his throat, "How is your injury?"

"I was hit by two swords, both of which penetrated me. I need to recover for a while."

Gao Cun had suffered all kinds of injuries during these years on the battlefield, but he didn't take it seriously at all and was back to full strength in just two days.

He described the situation of the men in black to Shao Wei, but these people were prepared and there were no identifying features on their bodies.

Shao Wei nodded, "Got it, you should take good care of your injuries."

Coming out of the room, Wei Yanzhou had no intention of leaving. He stood between Gu Qinghe and Shao Wei, waving a fan.

After Shao Wei heard what had happened, he thanked Wei Yanzhou.

Wei Yanzhou waved his hands. He was not going there to save Shao Wei. He was just helping Gu Qinghe.

If he knew that they were Shao Wei's men, perhaps he would have asked them to run slower.

When facing Gu Qinghe, he completely lost the distant and polite attitude he had just shown to Shao Wei, and naturally took credit, "I helped you today, how do you want to thank me?"

This man has always been like this, but he really needs to be thanked for what happened today. Gu Qinghe's expression remained unchanged and she asked, "How would you like me to thank you, Prince Wei?"
