Chapter 7 Tool Man

 The brothers behind Dou Pengfei became energetic the moment they saw Gu Xi, and their eyes lit up when they heard her speak again.

Who is this fairy-like, charming beauty!

When did their leader know such a beauty!

You actually didn’t let your brothers know!

So inhuman!

Dou Pengfei looked at Gu Xi's sleepy and weak look, and was secretly surprised.

This is completely different from the heroic and heroic Sister Gu he knew before!

Looking at the brothers beside him who looked like wolves and tigers, Dou Pengfei shook his head and said,

"Forget it, I'll take care of my sister because she looks tired, so I won't disturb your rest. We'll leave now."

After all, he is also his sister’s best friend, so he has to take care of her.

"Boss, let's not search anymore? That's not good. If you are reported to the police, you will be punished. If the superiors send someone else to come, it will disturb the purity of this young lady."

Dou Pengfei's deputy immediately said.

He definitely didn't want to spend more time with this stunning beauty.

Others also echoed.

They are just selfless and they definitely don’t want to see more beauties.

Gu Xi didn't want them to leave just like that without getting in.

This person is right, leaving like this would be even more troublesome.

So, Gu Xi smiled again and invited them to come in to have a rest and have something to eat.

Dou Pengfei did not refuse anymore, he dismounted with a smile and said,

"Then we will bother Sister Gu."

Dou Pengfei's subordinate Wang Xiaohai was in charge of entertaining, and Gu Xi specially set up a banquet in the flower hall in the front yard to entertain Dou Pengfei alone.

After drinking a few glasses of wine and eating some food, Dou Pengfei and Gu Xi chatted.

"Sister Gu, I heard that your life experience has changed. Qing'er is very worried about you and has always wanted to find you. However, she recently contracted a cold and can only rest in bed at home."

"Qing'er has caught a cold? Is it serious? It's my turn to visit her." Gu Xi frowned worriedly.

Qing'er's body has always been fragile. In the dream, she lingered on the sick bed from behind, and he did not hear that her illness had improved before he died.

"It's okay, I'm much better today." Seeing that she cared about her sister, Dou Pengfei smiled and asked her again,

"You came to live in Zhuangzi. Could it be that the Hou Mansion dislikes you?"

Gu Xi smiled slightly and explained his situation.

"I took the initiative to come to Zhuangzi to avoid suspicion. They didn't dislike me enough to drive me to Zhuangzi."

Dou Pengfei looked disbelieving and showed some pity for her.

Looking at Sister Gu, her face is pale and her energy is gone. Anyway, she looks weak and lazy, and she still has a forced smile, which makes people feel pity for her.

Gu Xi is funny.

When she told the truth, no one believed her and she gained sympathy.

If she says she is happy that she is a fake daughter, others may think she is crazy.

"Brother Dou, can you tell me which fugitive you want to catch this time?" Gu Xi turned to him to inquire about the information and asked tentatively,

"Recently, there are rumors that Prince Ning has collaborated with the enemy and treason, and that Prince Ning has disappeared. Could it be..."

"Sister Gu has always been smart, and I really can't hide it from you, but you have to be careful about your words and deeds outside to avoid causing trouble." Dou Pengfei said with a serious expression.

"There are no outsiders here. I trust Brother Dou, so I just want to say a few words." Gu Xi looked angry,

"I don't believe that King Ning collaborated with the enemy and treason.

For more than ten years, King Ning guarded the border between Qin and Yan, and defeated the Yan army without the ability to fight back.

To put it bluntly, without King Ning, the Yan army would have captured Chizhou, Qingzhou, and even all the way to the capital, and the emperor would have become the king of subjugation!

It is extremely ridiculous to say that Prince Ning and Beiyan colluded!"

"Ahem, sister Gu, be careful what you say, be careful what you say! I just pretend I didn't hear what you just said, and don't talk nonsense in the future!"

Dou Pengfei was about to drink a glass of wine when he was frightened by her words about the king of subjugation.

Gu Xi smiled apologetically and agreed.

She said that on purpose just now, wanting to test Dou Pengfei's attitude and knowing that he also had complaints against the emperor.

I don’t agree with King Ning’s collaboration with the enemy and treason.

Gu Xi also asked Dou Pengfei about the attitude of other military generals towards King Ning's treason.

Although Dou Pengfei spoke vaguely and hesitantly out of caution, Gu Xi could still feel the chill and anger of the generals.

Gu Xi realized that she had habitually started to test words, and when she analyzed the situation, she despised herself.

She should enjoy life well, collect more grain, and earn more money. It has nothing to do with her whether the situation in the court changes or the throne changes.

When King Ning woke up, he quickly sent the Buddha away.

-

After finishing the meal, Dou Pengfei sent his subordinates to symbolically search the cellar and other places before leaving, without even looking for the place where Gu Xi and the maids lived.

This time I passed it without any danger.

Gu Xi checked the system again and found that her mission of rescuing Prince Ning was completed. She was also prompted that the reward had been issued and she could explore on her own.

Is it completed before Prince Ning wakes up?

It seems that evading capture is the key.

At this time, Xia Zhi ran over excitedly,

"Miss, my servant just wiped your room and found a secret cabinet under the desk. There are several small bottles in it. Miss, please take a look."

Gu Xi paused and took it from her hand, "Go and do your work. I'll take a look."

The system really belongs to you.

Give out a reward and you will almost have the fun of treasure hunting.

Gu Xi opened the bottle, and corresponding information came to her mind.

After reading it, Gu Xi fell silent.

She is the tool of the system, right? This reward is entirely for Prince Ning to save his life.

Tailor-made!

Sprinkle a little golden sore medicine and witness the miracle of stopping bleeding in one second.

After using this scar removal cream for a month, you will have brand new skin, smooth and delicate.

Heart-protecting pill, if you eat it, you will not die even if you insert a knife into your heart.

With these medicines, there is no need for her to write any more prescriptions.

However, there is only one serving of these medicines, and there are only three pills for protecting the heart.

Tsk, too little!

Gu Xi felt that she couldn't get anything out of Prince Ning this time, so all the rewards would probably be spent on Prince Ning.

-

Although the Heart-Protecting Pill is not a very big pill, Prince Ning was in a high coma, almost unconscious, and could no longer swallow it by himself.

Gu Xi stared at Prince Ning for a moment, made up her mind, and silently muttered "I'm sorry, I've offended you."

Then, she drove Haruzhi and the others out, crushed the pills herself, and poured them into the medicine bowl with water.
Chapter completed!
