Zong Yue was flipping through the account books of the drug store in Baicaotang. His subordinates came over and said that Mr. Beiming had brought a girl. Zong Yue guessed that the girl was most likely Yiyi.

When Beiming and Yiyi came in, Zong Yue put down the account book and saluted the two of them: "Second Master."

Zong Yue replied: "Come back?"

That day, as soon as Gu Qingyan finished talking to him about Yiyi, he asked Yiyi to come over. At that time, Yiyi had been insisting that she wanted to learn martial arts. It was Chen Su who agreed. Facing a girl, Zong Yue couldn't be too tough.

After that, he sent her back to Shimen. Thinking that one day Yiyi could no longer hold on, he would find an excuse to take Yiyi out. Otherwise, if Yiyi really had something wrong with Shimen later, he would not be able to explain it to his good friend.

.

Beiming stepped forward and returned to Zong Yue: "Go back to the second master, my master's intention is that Yiyi is not suitable to be in Shimen, so he is sent back to the second master."

Gu Qingyan was always decisive in doing things. Once she made a decision, she would immediately implement it. So when it came to sending Yiyi out, Gu Qingyan made up her mind and sent her out after meeting her.

Zong Yue asked Yiyi to come to him and said, "I understand, let her stay here."

Seeing that she had been handed over in this way, Yiyi was still wondering whether she could learn martial arts after leaving Shimen, so she turned to Zong Yue and said, "Second Master, can I learn martial arts from you?"

Zong Yue knelt down and his eyes were parallel to Yiyi: "Okay, but are you willing to learn medical skills as well?"

Yiyi raised her little head and rolled her eyes. She had long lost her restraint in front of Gu Qingyan. She thought that if she learned medicine and martial arts at the same time, she would kill two birds with one stone, so she nodded toward Zongyue.

Seeing that the task was accomplished, Beiming soon stayed: "Second Master, my subordinates will retire first."

Zong Yue said: "Go ahead. If Su Xin didn't go to Shimen with you, please pay more attention to your master's health."

Beiming responded and left Baicaotang. From then on, Yiyi became Zong Yue's little apprentice. Later, Gu Qingyan even joked about Taohuajian and the four of them. Unexpectedly, Zong Yue was the first to accept his apprentice.

Beiming was called over by Gu Qingyan when he returned to Shimen. Dongqing was also there when he entered the room. Gu Qingyan was asking him what Shimen had arranged for the hidden guards and secret guards to do recently, especially those who were about to undergo the trial this time.

A wave of people.

There will be a record book for these, Dongqing presented it, Gu Qingyan flipped through it while listening to Dongqing say: "In addition to the daily tasks, that is, a month to half a month ago, the trial secret guards went in batches

I went to the mist forest to adapt to the environment and practiced it in advance."

Dongqing picked the key point and told Gu Qingyan that after hearing what she wanted to hear, Gu Qingyan fit into the record book and asked Beiming: "What do you think?"

If there is something strange about those people, Gu Qingyan will definitely pay close attention to it. These secret guards will be brought into the palace after the Shimen trial. If anything happens, she will bear the brunt of it. And if there are others among these people, what consequences will follow?

This was something Gu Qingyan didn't dare to think about. Therefore, she preferred to be a little more suspicious at this moment.

Beiming and Gu Qingyan had similar thoughts, but they also had some thoughts in their hearts. He said, "In addition to its environment, the Nether Mist Forest also has the institutions we have set up. Without our own people, most outsiders would not dare to break in."

Gu Qingyan held her chin with one hand and tapped the record book with her fingers. She stared at the stove on the desk with her almond-shaped eyes: "Beiming, come with me to the mist forest tomorrow."

Gu Qingyan had some ideas about this matter, but she didn't know how to express it. She only knew that her intuition told her that a walk in the mist forest might make things clearer.

"Who is in charge of that team?" Gu Qingyan asked Dongqing.

Dongqing replied: "It's Dongxin."

For a short moment, the room was quiet. Dongqing knew that if there was any problem, they would all be punished by Taohuajian and Shimen, and Dongxin, as the most direct manager, would be punished the heaviest.

that one.

"Go down first, as long as you know it in your heart." Gu Qingyan said.

There was a hint of helplessness in her tone, and she asked the two of them to retreat. Gu Qingyan sat on the soft couch, closed her eyes, her brows gradually furrowed together, her hands unconsciously pinched the bridge of her nose, and she exhaled a long breath.

, her subconscious was telling her that there was some threat approaching her, and she hoped that she was overthinking it.

The sky gradually turned white, and a new day came quietly. Ice strips were hung on the treetops at some point. The sudden drop in temperature made those who got up early in the morning shiver. Seeing the weather like this, Su Xin was worried.

Gu Qingyan caught a cold at Shimen, so early in the morning she brought two people with her a blue bird fine velvet cloak and two sets of slightly thicker clothes.

When Gu Qingyan woke up, she saw Su Xin's back in the room holding the heater for her. Su Xin leaned forward slightly, probably adding spices to the heater. Gu Qingyan didn't like strong fragrance, so Su Xin took a spoonful of it.

He just lit the incense at the tip of the spoon, and Gu Qingyan half-leaned on the bed and just watched without disturbing her.

I just suddenly felt a little cold and couldn't help but cough slightly, which attracted Su Xin's attention.

"Master, you're awake." Su Xin walked over, hung the curtains on both sides of the bed, put some clothes on Gu Qingyan, and helped her get up.

After completely getting out of the warm bed, Gu Qingyan could fully feel the cold outside. When she said a word, mist came out of her mouth: "Why are you here?"

Gu Qingyan never let Su Xin come to Shimen. Firstly, there were mostly men here, and Suxin was not a martial artist, so she must not be used to it. Secondly, Gu Qingyan was used to taking care of herself in Shimen, so Suxin wouldn't be of much use here.

Su Xin brought hot water for Gu Qingyan to wash up, and replied: "I saw that it was getting cold, so the master didn't bring any thick clothes when he came, so he sent two over."

"You are interested." Gu Qingyan said, holding Su Xin's hand.

This girl, Su Xin, has a very sincere heart towards others. Back then, Su Xin was sold into a double photo studio. Because she did not want to use her body as a tool to find out information, Su Xin ran away several times and was caught several times, and then she was tortured.

, waited for the injury to heal, and continued to run away. On the way to escape that time, she met Gu Qingyan. She didn't know Gu Qingyan's background, and kowtowed repeatedly, asking Gu Qingyan to save her.

Ever since the incident with Yuan Zhao, Gu Qingyan had automatically shielded herself from the matter of rescuing people. Naturally, she didn't take Su Xin seriously at first, so she rode past Su Xin with her whip raised. Beiming followed, and Gu Qing followed.

Yan did not stop, Beiming just followed.

Su Xin didn't know where she got the strength at that time, and for some reason she just targeted Gu Qingyan. She rushed forward and bumped into Beiming's horse. The horse was frightened and looked up to the sky and shouted, "Beiming!"

Tightening the reins, she saw the horse lift up its front hoofs, and Su Xin was just below the horse's front hoofs. Seeing that Su Xin might be dead when the horse's hoofs fell, Gu Qingyan turned around, jumped up from the horse, and scooped up the horse.

Su Xin threw it aside.

Beiming took advantage of this time to calm down the horse and quickly got off the horse to see if Su Xin was okay.

"Girl, are you okay?" Beiming gently patted Su Xin who was lying on the ground.

After a while, Su Xin regained consciousness, shook her head slightly, grabbed Beiming's hand, and said in an extremely weak tone: "Help...help...me."

Beiming looked at Su Xin, and saw that there were many large and small scars on his neck and exposed arms that could be seen with the naked eye. The old and new injuries were mixed together, which made him feel distressed to see. In addition, Beiming had suffered a blow just now.

Mingdu felt pain for her.

Gu Qingyan had already mounted her horse again after throwing Su Xin aside. She didn't look at them now. She just waited for Beiming to mount her horse and then they left. Beiming knew what Gu Qingyan was thinking, but he couldn't bear to leave Su Xin alone like this.

Then he spoke: "Master, why don't you take her for a ride and find a place to put her down in front?"

They were now in a suburb, with no one around for miles around. If Su Xin was left like this, no one would be able to figure out why she was gone tomorrow.

After listening to Beiming's words, Gu Qingyan tilted her head and looked at Su Xin, who was lying on the ground and had not moved much. Her hands were still firmly grasping Beiming's sleeves. Just as she was about to say something, Gu Qingyan heard footsteps.

There was a sound, and then they saw several men in black coming towards them with knives.

Subconsciously he said: "Take her on the horse!"

Beiming quickly carried Su Xin onto the horse's back. Just as the two were about to leave, they heard someone shouting from behind: "Put that girl down!"

Her tone was full of commands. Gu Qingyan glanced at Beiming. Beiming nodded, dismounted, and blocked the intruder. Gu Qingyan turned the horse's head and approached Beiming's horse. The horse also looked at Gu Qing knowingly.

Yan moved a step aside, and Gu Qingyan protected the horse and Su Xin on it behind her.

"No matter who you are, that girl belongs to us. Put her down and we will let you go." The leader of the men in black said.

After Beiming heard what he said, he sneered. Before he could say anything, the other person continued: "Don't be disrespectful!"

Beiming thought to himself and didn't know who to respond to: "Do you know who dies quickly?"

His tone was cold, and there were already a few silver needles in his hand as he spoke. No matter what the expression on the other side was, there were still people approaching him step by step. Beiming answered for them: "Those who talk a lot die the fastest."

After saying that, the silver needles in his hands had already penetrated the middle of those people's foreheads one by one. Before they could get close to him, the first wave of men in black had already fallen to the ground. The following people saw that Bei Ming was not easy to mess with, and they saw another one.

Gu Qingyan was a girl, so she changed direction and headed towards Gu Qingyan.

I can only blame them for underestimating the enemy. Gu Qingyan was not afraid that several people would come together. Standing on his horse, a man in black slashed at Gu Qingyan with a knife. Gu Qingyan bent down and dodged the attack, holding a folding fan in his sleeve.

, one hand blocked the hand of the man in black that was not holding the knife, and the other hand followed the force of the returning knife, and the fan drew across the blade and approached the man in black's neck. With a "swish" sound, the fan opened, and the man in black on the opposite side opened his neck.

Blood oozed from his veins and he fell to the ground.

Seeing how easily Gu Qingyan had dealt with their companions, the others planned to join them. Gu Qingyan didn't want to waste time with them, so he threw out the peacock feathers in his sleeves, without missing a beat, and decisively dealt with the people in front of him.

people.

Looking at the corpses lying around and Su Xin lying on the horse, Gu Qingyan said to Beiming: "Bring it back to Yuhualou first and let the third brother handle it."

In this way, Su Xin was unconsciously rescued by Gu Qingyan and brought back to Yuhua Tower. Later, when Su Xin mentioned this matter, Gu Qingyan insisted that it was Beiming who saved Su Xin, not herself.

After returning to Yuhua Building, Su Xin woke up and thought that she would still live the same life in Shuangying Building. It was here that she knew who she was asking for help. Baili Mo saw Su Xin's surprised expression when she woke up and asked

Her: "Do you regret it?"

Suxin bit her lip, she didn't know what to say.

Baili Mo chuckled: "You should recover from your injuries here first, and then we can talk about the other injuries after they are healed."

Su Xin didn't expect that things would develop later and she would have to make her own decision, whether to stay in Yuhua Building and work or to serve the four girls in Taohua Stream. After all, Baili Mo felt that Gu Qingyan had grown up and she couldn't be surrounded by men.

In taking care of her, she happens to have Su Xin, which is quite suitable. The two of them are also destined to be together.

After careful consideration, Su Xin chose to become Gu Qingyan's maid. Although she served her carefully at first, as time went by, Su Xin also came to know Gu Qingyan's different temperament, and she treated Gu Qingyan

I can't help but become more and more interested.

During this recollection, Su Xin tied up Gu Qingyan's hair, and Gu Qingyan also put on light makeup: "Okay, Beiming and I are going to the Nether Mist Forest in a while, so you should go back to Jingxinyuan first.

Bar."

"Yes. Master, yesterday Mr. Gu asked if the master still had the wine." When Gu Ning and the others came back from Lao Yi's place, they sent someone to Jingxinyuan to ask about the wine.

Gu Qingyan had just asked Xu Shaolin and the others to dig out the old tree a few days ago, and he was already thinking about it.

"How did you respond?" Gu Qingyan asked.

"We have been lighting it for the past few days since I came back. If the madam and the gentlemen want it, I will light it and send it over." Su was sincere, but she had followed Gu Qingyan for a long time, and she had learned a lot to leave a way out for herself.

Gu Qingyan praised Su Xin for her wit. She learned from Su Xin that it was Lao Yi who mentioned it, and Gu Ning and the others sent someone to ask. She suddenly realized: "Yes, I remembered it. I was still talking to him at that time."

Uncle Yi left two jars for him at the end of the year. Su Xin, please go back and make sure you order two jars." Gu Qingyan told Su Xin, after all, she wanted to learn some other wine-making methods from Lao Yi, so she had to

Let’s give you some sweetness first and then talk about the matter.

After the master and servant finished speaking, Su Xin put a blue bird cloak on Gu Qingyan. When they came out, Beiming was already waiting outside the door: "Master."
