On this day, upon hearing of Elder Li's arrival, Gu Hua Jing hurried to the front hall to greet him.
"Master! Master, you're finally here. "
Gu Hua Jing's face was full of emotion as she hurriedly invited Li Song into the side room. Without waiting for the tea to be served, her eyes flashed as she stared at Li Song.
"Master, did you think of something?"
Li Song looked at her and didn't say anything. The way Gu Hua Jing asked was naturally about young master Ze.
However …
A pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes appeared before Li Song's eyes, and the light from them made his entire body shiver.
"Little girl, even I …"
The light in Gu Hua Jing's eyes slowly faded, but she didn't say anything. She only curled her lips and weakly lied on the table.
Even Master couldn't do anything about it … Was this Third Prince planning to kill him to keep his mouth shut after using him?
That won't do, he had to think of a way to escape.
But would she be able to escape? Even if she escaped, what about the Gu family? The Gu family would never be able to escape.
From the looks of it, he could only … Even if she died, she would drag Feng Rong into the water!
Gu Hua Jing's cold gaze made Li Song's heart tremble. This was the radiance of her determination, so what did Gu Hua Jing think of this?
At this moment, Gu Hua Jing was already thinking, she already has those reliable people by her side. If she can escape, one will be, and she'll even have to arrange for people to uncover the secrets of the third prince's disobedience.
She was afraid of death, but at the time when she had no other choice, Gu Hua Jing was thinking of dying together with her.
"Little girl, don't be so anxious. Perhaps, things are not as serious as you think."
"Not serious?"
Gu Hua Jing raised her head, "How could it not be serious? Third Prince is so terrifying, but Master told me. Could it be that you were lying to me before?"
"I... I didn't say that, but His Highness didn't seem to have done anything to hurt you, right? So, so maybe we're wrong? "
Gu Hua Jing was puzzled again.
She and Feng Rong didn't have much interaction, but wasn't her master telling her to stay away from the Third Prince obvious enough? Was he mistaken again?
"Master, what exactly do you mean? "Do you think I can make medicine for that Young Master Ze or something? And then you think I'll be able to leave safely?"
"…" When Gu Hua Jing saw Li Song's expression, she understood in her heart. He also thought that it was completely impossible.
What else was there to say?
"Girl, listen to me first."
Li Song's heart was thumping. He tried his best to calm down as he spoke in a perverted tone.
"Actually, what I said last time wasn't completely stupid."
"Last time …?" Are you saying that you want me to marry the third prince? "
"That's right." Li Song nodded seriously, "Although His Highness is a bit cynical, he is extremely good to those around him. You're a girl, you can't possibly spend the rest of your life carrying the identity of" He Li ", right?"
"So what?"
Gu Hua Jing couldn't help but furrow her brows, not knowing why the topic of conversation had become like this.
"Master, don't bring this up again, how is this possible? Don't mention that I don't want to at all, even if I did, would the Third Prince marry a woman he had parted with? Who would believe it! "
"What if, what if he's willing?"
The mocking smile on Gu Hua Jing's face froze. She looked at Li Song in disbelief, but he quickly averted his gaze.
"Master, what do you mean?" Didn't you keep me from getting close to the third prince? Didn't you always say that you would protect me from danger? "Why do you keep bringing it up again and again?"
"I just … I just feel that this might be a good idea …"
"What kind of solution is this?!"
Gu Hua Jing was so angry that she laughed instead, "Isn't this crisis brought by the Third Prince to me?" You also allowed me to approach the Third Prince in exchange for safety.
Gu Hua Jing let out a heavy breath, her eyelids lifted as she stared at Li Song, "Tell me the truth, was it the Third Prince who asked you to do this?" With your personality, you won't still try to convince me after I've rejected you.
"…" Li Song's dry lips opened and closed twice, but he was unable to utter a single word of rebuttal.
This girl's mind was too sharp. Wanting to deceive her was not an easy matter.
That was equivalent to tacit approval.
Gu Hua Jing's heart was' set ablaze '. It really was the Third Prince? There was really something wrong with him!
What is he doing? She had taken a fancy to his beautiful appearance? Or did he feel that he had not tasted the feeling of leaving a girl before, so he came looking for a new one?!
Gu Hua Jing could understand this, as there were very few men in the world who were not trash. But even if they truly took a fancy to him, wouldn't they be able to do it in a normal manner? Was he threatening her with his own safety? Was there such a thing?!
"Little girl, I know you're very angry in your heart, but … it's just that sometimes, there are too many people who are powerless …"
Li Song's hoarse voice was like a rooster who had lost a battle. His shoulders were drooped as he spoke silently.
"I won't tell you about this if there's any other way. I know the temperament of the third prince, and that's why I came to advise you. No matter what, it's better than losing my life …"
"It would be better to just lose my life …"
Gu Hua Jing's faint reply suddenly caused Li Song to freeze, "What are you talking about?! If he lost his life, he would lose everything! You must not do anything stupid! "
Gu Hua Jing rolled her eyes and lowered her head with a cold expression.
She wouldn't do something stupid. If she could live, who would want to die?
It was just that she had always felt that her master was being a little too honest. Although her temperament was strange, after getting to know her for a long time, her honest and adorable personality was slowly exposed.
The third prince didn't care about his life, so why would he care about his other thoughts?
If she were to really marry him, then he would be a side wife, a side wife, and that would be the role of the mistress. He was someone she would never do in her entire life!
While Gu Hua Jing was thinking, a slight chill came from the depths of her bones.
It was as if no matter what she did, there was no way to easily resolve it. Could it be that she really could ignore the life and death of the Gu family and leave by herself?
"Little girl, little girl!" "Don't think too much, don't think too much first …"
When Li Song saw that Gu Hua Jing had no more reaction, and recalled her earlier words, "even my life was gone", his heart was in a state of panic.
"I … I'll tell you the truth …"
Gu Hua Jing finally raised her head. There was a rare confused look in her eyes, causing Li Song to feel extremely guilty.
"Indeed, the third prince asked me to be the lobbyist. He told you about young master Ze's matter, so that you would be placed in a dilemma. When he told me about it, I was also, and also panicked. I don't know why he would do that."
Li Song's aged face could not help but tremble. He was completely defeated.
"He wasn't like that before. He was very sensible and understanding, but …"
Within Li Song's eyes, a clear and limpid light appeared. He hurriedly raised his head, not wanting to let Gu Hua Jing see it.
"But that incident had too big of a impact on him, to the point that he seemed to have become a different person overnight. Little girl, I know that when I say this, I seem to be defending the Third Prince, but no, I just want you to know that the current Third Prince is no longer the person I know. Whatever he wants to accomplish, he has never, ever failed …"
Li Song took a deep breath and lowered his head. His eyes were clean.
"I don't want anything to happen to you. I don't want you to change the temperament of Feng Rong because of the third prince's injury. If I don't go along with him, he could have done anything. I don't dare to take the risk …"
Gu Hua Jing had remained expressionless the whole time, but now she suddenly smiled.
The smile on her lips was like a fleeting flower, beautiful beyond compare.
"Therefore, I have to follow his wishes. If he wants me, I have to obediently wash up and deliver myself to him in exchange for my life, right?"
"…" Li Song's breath suddenly stopped. He slowly closed his eyes in frustration …
After Li Song left, the anger in Gu Hua Jing's heart was still boiling.
She had originally thought that she would be unobstructed because she was the daughter of a first rank imperial scholar. She hadn't thought that in this dynasty, as long as she wanted to force someone into a higher position, she would have more than enough power to do so.
Those who had this ability couldn't be considered few in number …
What should he do? Gu Hua Jing unconsciously pulled at the hair at the side of her hair, and then loosened it.
For the first time, she felt lost and didn't know what to do.
If she recalled that the family had discussed things with her father and brothers, with the love they had for her, they might even go all out against the Gu family and not let her suffer any grievances.
Gu Hua Jing was unwilling.
What she had obtained from the Gu family was already very grateful. No matter what, she didn't want to implicate the Gu family.
But, without the Gu family, how would she be able to escape?
Gu Hua Jing held her head in her hands, feeling worried. In her heart, she was growing more and more disgusted with Feng Rong. Even Feng Rong's heaven defying appearance couldn't move her at all.
Over the next few days, almost every day, Li Song came to the Flowing Garden.
Perhaps Li Song knew that he couldn't persuade Gu Hua Jing, so he didn't say anything more and only gave her a set of silver needles and began to teach her some acupuncture points.
"Master, this is …" Where is the secret technique to protect my life? "
Li Song could not even smile, he just carefully marked the acupuncture points on a wooden person.
"These were all passed down to me by my master. Before he died, he said that if it wasn't necessary, this acupuncture technique wouldn't have to be passed on."
Gu Hua Jing was startled and couldn't help but look carefully at Li Song's hand. He told her about these acupuncture points, but to no avail.
"Master …"
"I thought that I would never have to come into contact with the person inside the palace wall again, but if I had known that I would take you in as my disciple and promised my master then, I wouldn't have agreed so quickly."
"…" Li Song finished marking the last acupoint and passed the wooden figure to Gu Hua Jing.
"Remember, burn it."
"Master, you have to tell me what these acupuncture points are used for, right?"
Li Song's gaze shifted to the wooden figure. "This is a secret technique. It can cause all kinds of illnesses, poisoning, pregnancy, being bedridden, or even death …"
So awesome? Gu Hua Jing was a little shocked. Just relying on thin silver needles was enough to make a person's body have these kinds of reactions?
"Master! Master, you're finally here. "
Gu Hua Jing's face was full of emotion as she hurriedly invited Li Song into the side room. Without waiting for the tea to be served, her eyes flashed as she stared at Li Song.
"Master, did you think of something?"
