This time, he did come to tell his daughter that it was not very quiet outside recently. The city was searching for a strange man in a black robe and mask. It was said that this strange man had stolen something from the Fourth Prince, which made the Fourth Prince furious. He swore to catch him and bring him to justice.
Gu Xietian told them to stay at home for a few days and not go out. They did not want to be bullied by the mysterious man.
Gu Xietian also brought the portrait of the mysterious man. Gu Xijiu opened it and her heart skipped a beat!
The person in the portrait was very realistic, especially the clothes and the mask. It was as if it was drawn according to the portrait. There was not a single pattern on it!
It was the thing that she threw into the moat.
How did the package get fished out? It was even handed to the soldiers.
She asked Gu Xietian a few more questions and found out that the clothes were found by the soldiers at the moat.
It was said that when it was discovered, this set of clothes was floating in the air as if it was haunted … The soldiers guarding the city were the Fourth Prince's men. The Fourth Prince soon found out about it and immediately issued a city-wide search order. Now, the city was in a state of panic, and everyone was in a state of panic …
Gu Xijiu clenched her fists in her sleeves.
It must be that person who was playing tricks on her! The person who said that he had a grudge against her at the moat.
That bastard secretly took out the clothes that she threw into the moat and deliberately let the soldiers see it. The soldiers would definitely report it to their superior if they felt it was strange. And the commander of the soldiers guarding the city was the Fourth Prince!
When she teleported away at the auction house, the Fourth Prince probably thought that she had used some kind of Invisibility Spell. Naturally, he would pay attention to all cases related to Invisibility Spell. After hearing the report from the soldiers guarding the city, he might directly believe that the person who threw the robe on the riverbank was the one he was looking for. Therefore, he made up a groundless crime to arrest her openly.
That bastard was obviously trying to kill her with a borrowed knife.
What was more annoying was that she was in the light, but the person was in the dark. She did not even know whether the person was a man or a woman.
She sneered in her heart.
Since the person had already determined that she was his enemy, he would definitely show up sooner or later. She just needed to wait for the snake to come out of its hole.
She looked down and began to think about what she should do next.
Gu Xietian naturally didn't know what she was thinking at this moment. After giving her a few more words of advice, he left.
Before he left, he even praised the maidservants. He even announced a new family rule on the spot: No one was allowed to trespass Gu Xijiu's courtyard. Anyone who trespassed would be severely punished by the family rules.
When he announced the new rule, he glanced at Gu Tianyi coldly.
He had been in the government for a long time. He was too lazy to pay attention to the fights in the backyard, but it did not mean that he did not know anything about it. He could see through Gu Tianyi's plan at first glance.
This new rule was a warning. Gu Tianyi lowered her head and felt a chill in her heart. She knew that she wouldn't be able to get any benefits here, so she followed Gu Xietian and left dejectedly.
"Great!" One of the maids let out a cheer. Their eyes sparkled as they looked at their master. Their faces were filled with excitement and worship!
