Fang Yuan frowned and advised Lin Chongwei: "Zhongwei, don't do this. It's fine if you are tantrums on weekdays. Don't do this again after Chu Ci comes! Our Dragon Soul Guard does need to step up the rectification. If Chu Ci is really capable, we should cooperate with him!"

Lin Chongwei had long been accustomed to Fang Yuan's advice, and snorted disdainfully, obviously not listening to it at all.

Chu Ci said nothing, said goodbye to them again, and then rode his horse away from the north camp on the north side of the city.

She had already roughly understood the situation there, so there was no need to waste time there anymore. It was difficult to leave the palace and she had more important things to do.

Chu quit, singing and dancing, and talked to the peonies in the mountains and river pavilions.

"Miss, do you want to see them now?" Mudan asked for instructions.

Chu Ci nodded.

Peony opened the door in the wall and said to the instructions inside: "Everyone comes out and see your master."

After the words came out, seven women with their own characteristics but also their charm came out from the secret passage. They were all wearing strong suits to walk around the world and a tall ponytail. They looked heroic and light and neat.

The seven women stood in a row in front of Chu Ci, then knelt down on one knee, and said respectfully: "I have seen my master."

Chu Ci raised his hand to signal them to get up, then looked at them carefully, and smiled while looking at them: "Du Ruo beautiful, Aster bright, Mulian cold, Lily of the valley dignified, Bai Wei Qing, Haitang beautiful,... Well, the smallest Forsythia is also very spiritual. Your seven blood flowers are clearly seven beautiful flowers, which makes me feel moved!"

Peony listened on the side, looking slightly stunned, "Miss, can you tell who they are? You have never seen them before!"

"Sister Peony, are you stupid?" The youngest Forsythia can't hide the playfulness of the cardamom girl. She looked at Chu Ci without any recognizing her life and said with a smile, "Master, did you tell me the patterns of flowers embroidered on our clothes?"

Chu Ci had a good impression of this lively little pump lady and smiled and praised: "Yes, you are smarter than Mudan!"

The other six people were originally a little nervous to look at Chu Ci, but now they saw Chu Ci talking to Lian Qiao gently. His smile was as soft and intoxicating as the spring breeze, and he couldn't help but relax. At the same time, he was more or less excited and secretly kept in Jiangnan for seven years. Finally, he met another master who they would be loyal to in the future. Moreover, this master not only looks good but also has nothing to say, but the days when he will no longer be filled with various trainings in the future should be worth looking forward to, right?

Chu Ci took a sip of hot tea and brought their subtle expressions into their eyes.

These seven women were the hidden guards who Gu Shengge took to Jiangnan for training eight years ago. They were the secret killer he prepared for Chu Ci, code-named Seven Blood Flowers.

They are all women of poor backgrounds or miserable circumstances. They have no worries in this world. They all follow them voluntarily and repay Gu Shengge and Chu Ci's grace for taking in and cultivating them with loyalty.

For these seven women, their abilities were trained by Gu Shengge, so Chu Ci was very relieved, but he didn't know if he could fully trust them.

Not trusting others easily is a lesson Chu Ci learned in his previous life.

Chu Ci told them: "You choose two or three people who are good at spying clichés. Tomorrow, follow the girls here to take business in the North of the City to get more and more detailed information as much as possible. Also, Bai Wei, I remember you can make drugs, right? Make a poison for me as soon as possible that it is not very toxic and has no side effects, and configure the antidote by the way. Just avoid the raw materials needed here and buy them with money. Don't ask me all."

"Yes." The seven people replied in unison.

"Last, the most important point." Chu Ci raised a finger and looked at their puzzled eyes seriously and said, "Please pay attention to safety, and be sure to pay attention to safety."

Chu Ci said seriously in a very slow tone: "The imperial capital is not as stable as Jiangnan. You have never dealt with outside. I don't want any accidents when you just followed me. Since you want to be my confidants, you must protect yourself, complete the tasks I arranged, and follow me to fight for a bloody road, and watch the countless prosperity of the country and the country side by side!"

After the words came, Chu Ci noticed that their eyes changed when they looked at her, and there was a hint of admiration. So she understood that her words worked.

A long time later, at that time, the youngest Lian Qiao grew into a graceful and elegant young girl and asked Chu Ci: "Master, did you really think so when you said those words to us at that time, or did you just inspire us?"

Chu Ci smiled and touched her head, without answering immediately.

But now, at this moment, Chu Ci was sure that she said these words just to motivate them, and she didn't expect that this relationship, which was originally supposed to be a master and servant, would deteriorate without realizing it.

After giving these instructions, Chu Ci asked them to prepare each of them, and then left Mudan to ask about something.

"Chu Yun...How is it happening recently?"

Mudan thought about it and said, "Miss, if you don't ask, I will forget her. The main reason is that there is nothing big, she does a good job. Except for those who know the inside story, no one can see any flaws."

Chu Ci listened, there was nothing wrong with this, but as long as she thought of this name and the woman's extremely calm appearance, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more she became more and more worried.

Then Chu Ci simply left his horse and walked to the Duke's Mansion, then climbed over the wall from the backyard, and rushed directly to the yard where she used to live.

When I returned to the Duke's Mansion last time, because Gu Liancheng and Gu Shengge made me feel a little unstable, Chu Ci had forgotten that there was Chu Yun who was extremely afraid of her here, and even more forgot to ask about her updates.

It was fine if I forgot, but when I thought about it, I couldn't help but want to find out what happened in person, which forced Chu Ci to sneak into his own wall like a thief.

But when Chu Ci saw Chu Yun in her yard, he felt a little disappointed.

The woman sat quietly at the table, disguised herself as if she was just like her, and was lowering her head to make embroidery.

It was so ordinary that Chu Ci should have felt relieved after seeing it, but for some reason he felt a little disappointed.

Perhaps she overlapped the woman with the same name as Chu Yun in her previous life, so if she was too qualified, Chu Ci would be afraid, but if she was as mediocre as she is now, Chu Ci would think of Chu Yun who was once unconcealed and was lost by such a big gap.

Nothing new to me could be seen again. Chu Ci did not get closer and turned around and left silently.

Not long after she left, Chu Yun finally completed the embroidery in her hand. She opened it and looked at her, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

A snow-white pear blossom bloomed quietly on the silk handkerchief, elegant and incomparable.

＝＝

Chu Ci originally planned to return to the palace after reading Chu Yun. Although Cang Lingyue gave her the token of free entry and exit, she might not be sure that if she was too late to go back outside, she would confiscate the sign for her if she had a moody problem again.

But Chu Ci didn't expect that as soon as she left the yard, she saw Gu Shengge walking over.

My first reaction was to hide.

That night she expressed all the feelings that she had hidden in her heart for Gu Shengge. Although she didn't say it to him, she actually wanted to avoid him as if she was guilty when she saw him again, but she couldn't move her legs and couldn't bear to look away.

"Little sister?" Gu Shengge called out softly, wondering, "Why are you here?"

"I don't allow you to go home?" Chu Ci asked with a smile, smiling at everyone.

Gu Shengge nodded and said nothing. The two looked at each other and were silent for a while. His expression was faint, and the smile on her face could not be maintained.

Chu Ci knew that he was in an abnormal mood, but he didn't understand why Gu Shengge looked different from the past.

Before she could have the courage to ask, she heard him suddenly ask, "Have you eaten?"

"I want to eat pear blossoms and get drunk." Chu Ci replied.

Then the two of them came to the kitchen. Gu Shengge sent all the servants away, rolled up his sleeves slightly, and then began to take out the ingredients to make pastries.

Chu Ci sat aside, holding his jaw with one hand, and silently watching him move in an orderly manner.

When I first met Gu Shengge, Chu Ci could not imagine that this man who looked like a banished immortal could cook and made good pastries.

But after seeing it with her own eyes, she felt that no matter what he did, he would be the best and would not damage his image at all.

"A Sheng." Chu Ci suddenly spoke, and said something without thinking, "You are better than me everywhere."

"..." Gu Shengge didn't say anything, lowered his head and poured pear blossoms into the cake.

Chu Ci didn't want to hear his answer, and continued to say to himself: "I don't blame me for being worse than you, I'm so good at blaming you. No one can be better than you. I'm willing to lose to you."

"..." Gu Shengge's hands trembled slightly invisible.

"You are smart and know what I say, but since you want to pretend that you don't know, I won't say it... I won't say it for the time being." Chu Ci's voice lowered, "But nothing goes wrong, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it in long."

It was at this time that Gu Shengge spoke and said softly: "Little sister, it's time for me to get married."

"..." Chu Ci's breathing stagnated.

"My father fell in love with the young lady of the Wang family, Wang Hanyue." Gu Shengge said, his voice calm and he could not hear the ups and downs of emotions.

Chu Ci did not look back at him, lowered his head slightly, and his voice sounded dull, "Wang Hanyue, the famous talented woman in the imperial capital, my father has such a good attitude! Her father is one of Wang Wenjia and Ning Shikong's lackeys, and his father is really kind of demeanor, and he doesn't care about it!" This was a bit mean, but he couldn't hear anything in his tone.
