When Xi Duanhong and others faced Nanlian, the air was filled with invisible gunpowder smoke.
"Xi Duanhong, I will make you regret what happened today!"
Xi Duanhong looked at Nan Lian who was full of hatred for her. She really couldn't figure out how she had offended her to make her chase after him like this.
Gu Ci and others ignored Nan Lian's provocation and walked inside while protecting Xi Duanhong.
"Mr. Gu, what are you doing to Nan Lian..." Xi Duanhong looked at Gu Ci in embarrassment, "Do you need to change it?"
Gu Ci raised his hand and rubbed Xi Duanhong's head, "Don't worry, it's okay. I will be merciful when dealing with women. As for her, let's see how she does."
The young boy who followed at the end kept his eyes on Gu Ci's right hand that had touched Xi Duanhong's head just now.
Mu Lingchuan happened to see that scene when he turned around. Through Qingtong's mask, he could feel the obvious murderous intention.
Who is this person? He actually has such a murderous intention towards Gu San. Maybe it’s time to send someone to investigate...
on stage
Li Ting faced Mu Lingchuan's smiling face, thinking that he would be easy to get along with and felt that he could say so.
Xi Duanhong shook his head helplessly for her and prayed silently in his heart: When you meet this person, just what he said to me just now, I hope you can bear it...
Off stage.
Gu Ci walked to Xi Duanhong and sat down: "It's me next time. Why do you feel more nervous than me?"
Xi Duanhong smiled awkwardly when he said this, "I'm just worried that if you face Nan Lian..."
"What are you worried about?"
"We should talk about it on weekdays, but after all, she is the daughter of the minister, so she can't really refuse to give her any face?" Xi Duanhong looked at Gu Ci worriedly, "Mr. Gu, if not, what else...?"
Gu Ci smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, so what if she is the daughter of a minister, I am still afraid of her."
Seeing Gu Ci's confident look, Xi Duanhong didn't say anything more, but he was still a little worried.
Chief Chen's eyes were always surrounding the entire hall, catching everyone's movements and expressions. He paused for a moment when he saw Xi Duanhong's group, and looked past Xi Duanhong towards Qingtong.
The young boy did not dodge when he saw this, but stared at Xi Duanhong in front of him with increasing interest.
"You! You are simply arrogant! It's unfair!"
The noise on the stage attracted everyone's attention. At this time, Nan Lian was glaring angrily at Gu Ci, who was standing opposite her.
"Miss Nan, I act according to the rules. Why do you say it's unfair?" Gu Ci smiled broadly and squinted his eyes while shaking his fan. "Furthermore, you are a king and a minister, and those who serve as ministers should be loyal to the country." Your Majesty shares your worries, what is wrong with what you say?"
Nan Lian was dissatisfied, "As is the minister, so is the king. Both are human beings. Why does Mr. Gu think that the minister is inferior to the king? How can a king be a king if he has no ministers to sacrifice their lives for him?"
Xi Duanhong was listening to the confrontation between the two, and he actually admired Nanlian's explanation to the emperor and his ministers.
"How can a good king be a king? The ambitions of the Nan family are getting stronger and stronger."
Hearing Mu Lingchuan's words, Xi Duanhong came forward and asked, "What do you say?"
Mu Lingchuan smiled and said, "You haven't seen it yet? This is a Hongmen Banquet. It was originally sent by the imperial court to investigate secretly. Nan Lian's words today will naturally reach the emperor's ears."
"In this way, wouldn't Mr. Nan have something to use in the court for others to report for impeachment? Wouldn't the emperor have more reasons to dismiss him from office?"
Xi Duanhong shook his head, "So that's the case. However, I don't think there is anything wrong with what Miss Nan just said. The king and his ministers complement each other. They are both human beings. Only when there are ministers can there be a king. If this is not the case, why would a king be a king?"
"Hahaha," Mu Lingchuan laughed out loud, "What you said is true, but it won't be so when it comes to His Majesty's ears. Since ancient times, kings have been suspicious, which is very important, so you must never say this again if there is no need. ,Understand?"
"Of course, I still know this."
Looking at the stage again, Nan Lian was speechless by Gu Ci. Her eyes were red but she refused to give in.
