It was here that she met the mysterious man. Although the man did not show up, he managed to retrieve her equipment and deliberately let the soldiers find him...
Now that he was here, could it be that the mysterious man lived in the moat?
Gu Xijiu almost thought that the mysterious man was a water ghost!
"Master, what should we do next?" The Firmament Stone asked her.
"Let's go home and sleep." Gu Xijiu answered without hesitation. She turned around and walked home leisurely.
"That's it? Are we not going to continue the investigation? "The Firmament Stone still wanted to continue.
Gu Xijiu did not answer. She had a general idea in her mind.
Although she was still confused about the identity of the mysterious man, fortunately, she had some information.
For example, the mysterious man was indeed the one who peeped at her from the tree today. His Kung Fu was almost as good as Long Siye's or even better. Also, he had a very special incense on his body. She had only smelled it on the Crown Prince and the princess...
With these clues, she could narrow down the scope of her search. She could go back and ask Rong Jialuo or Rong Che. Perhaps, she could find out the identity of the mysterious man.
As long as she knew the identity of the person, she would be able to come up with a proper plan and would not be so passive anymore.
On the way back to the city, the Firmament Stone reminded her, "Master, someone is following you!"
"I know!" Gu Xijiu casually said, "I came out to show them."
"Ah? Why? "
"They should be the experts from the Supreme Court. Rong Yan must have bitten me, so these people are secretly investigating me. They are mainly investigating my Kung Fu to see if I have committed the crime."
"I see!" The Firmament Stone understood and was very impressed.
Its master had a very high IQ and was very smart! With a smart master, it would be much easier in the future.
Gu Xijiu's guess was right. The two people who were following her were indeed the experts from the Supreme Court. They had been following Gu Xijiu patiently until she returned to the General's residence.
They looked at each other and one of them quickly wrote down the information, "Gu Xijiu, level three Qing Gong, level zero spiritual power."
The other person asked, "Head, is it necessary to go in and check again?"
The one writing the materials shook his head. "No need, this is enough."
With her current Kung Fu, she would not be able to sneak in and out of the general's residence without anyone noticing, and she would not be able to kill Count Le Hua. Therefore, they did not want to waste any more time on her.
…
It was almost noon, and the sun was shining brightly.
Gu Xijiu sat in the airtight carriage and felt a little warm.
Today, as soon as she returned to the General's residence, she received an imperial edict from the Emperor. He asked her to enter the palace as soon as possible, saying that he had something important to discuss.
The eunuch was in a hurry. Gu Xijiu did not even have time to take a sip of water before she boarded the palanquin sent by the palace and was carried all the way to the palace.
Although she had interacted with a few princes, it was her first time coming to the palace.
The vermilion palace walls, the majestic palace halls, the long palace paths, and the many palace doors ….
The layout here was somewhat similar to that of the Forbidden City. The difference was that the roofs of the Forbidden City were mostly covered with glazed tiles, while the roofs here were covered with blue tortoiseshell tiles. Under the sunlight, they shone like the waves of the sea.
"Master, be careful, there's a murderous aura!" The Firmament Stone on his wrist suddenly reminded him.
