Chapter 196: Murong Bo: Child, I have an opinion!
Gu Qing had defeated Murong Fu, demonstrating his strength, and he also held Madam Wang's leverage. Now that he was at Mantuo Shanzhuang, and it was rumored that he had the ability to bring the dead back to life, the people of Mantuo Shanzhuang treated him well. These exquisite meals left a wild child like Mu Wanqing dazzled.
"Come, try this bear paw."
Gu Qing picked food for Mu Wanqing.
Mu Wanqing covered her mouth with one hand and tasted it silently.
"Young Master Gu, when are you planning to resurrect Yuyan's father?"
Lady Wang had been threatened by Gu Qing and knew that Gu Qing knew all her secrets. Hearing about resurrecting her biological father, she already knew Gu Qing was talking about Duan Zhengchun. Thus, while eating, her words were gentle and very attentive.
I know you are very anxious, but don't be anxious yet.
Gu Qing glanced at Madam Wang. Among Duan Zhengchun's confidantes, Madam Wang's domineering nature was on par with Dao Dao Bai Feng's. Dao Dao Bai Feng did not want Duan Zhengchun to have other women, while Madam Wang wanted to lock Duan Zhengchun inside Mantuo Shanzhuang to live together, not even letting Duan Zhengchun sit on the throne of the Dali Emperor.
"The secret manuals inside the Langhuan Jade Cave are almost finished."
Gu Qing said, "After I finish reading them, I will go to resurrect Yuyan's father."
"Do you think I should follow?"
Lady Wang's eyes contained hope.
Gu Qing felt speechless. Do you expect Duan Zhengchun to be very devoted, and after telling him the news about his daughter, he will change his mind and live with you?
No way!
"Mother should naturally follow."
Although Wang Yuyan felt that resurrection from the dead was too outrageous, seeing Mu Wanqing believe in it deeply and Lady Wang also smiling every day, she unknowingly felt a bit of expectation.
Gu Qing turned his gaze toward Wang Yuyan. Seeing the look of expectation in her eyes, he couldn't help but want to tease her, so he said: "Your mother indeed needs to follow; otherwise, for a beauty like you, once you leave this Mantuo Shanzhuang, it will no longer be up to you."
Wang Yuyan turned her face slightly and looked at Gu Qing.
"Why, has no one ever told you that you are beautiful?"
Gu Qing said with a smile.
Hearing this, Wang Yuyan frowned and said: "Inside this Mantuo Shanzhuang, they all treat me as the Young Lady and have never spoken of beauty or ugliness. I don't even know if I am beautiful or not."
Mu Wanqing was burying her head in eating. Hearing this, she raised her head slightly. Although her words were cold, she said, "You are indeed born very beautiful."
After Mu Wanqing learned that Gu Qing could resurrect her parents, she stopped assassinating Lady Wang. She usually followed Gu Qing and could also follow him into the Langhuan Jade Cave to take a look. However, Mu Wanqing was not very literate, and looking at the secret manuals alone, she only had a partial understanding of many things and didn't gain anything.
After Lady Wang guessed that Mu Wanqing and Qin Hongmian had a close relationship, she looked at Mu Wanqing with cold eyes. However, Mu Wanqing had received many cold looks in her life and had been scolded many times, so she naturally ignored it. At this moment, this cold and isolated person suddenly spoke up and acknowledged Wang Yuyan's appearance, making Wang Yuyan feel very useful.
"If we go out this time, people outside will see your fairy-like appearance and will inevitably worship you."
Gu Qing said with a smile again.
Duan Yu would definitely kneel.
Wang Yuyan, hearing this, showed a look of loneliness in her eyes and said, "I have never been outside. At most, I have been to my aunt's house. The people I met there were Brother Deng, Second Brother Gongye... they have never said that either."
Gu Qing looked at Wang Yuyan's appearance and felt the foreshadowing was almost done. He began to stab her heart gloomily, saying, "Hasn't Murong Fu ever praised you either?"
Just this one sentence fiercely touched Wang Yuyan's heart, making Wang Yuyan roll down tears in this silence.
Lady Wang, seeing this, comforted her in a low voice. Wang Yuyan sighed sadly, "He, he is very busy. There is no free time all year round. When I am with him, we are either discussing martial arts or discussing national affairs... I don't like martial arts. After all, it is always unrefined for a girl to dance with knives and swords."
As Wang Yuyan was speaking, she couldn't help but look up and see Gu Qing. She saw that Gu Qing was not listening to her seriously, but was holding back laughter, looking like he was watching her joke.
Wang Yuyan's sorrow suddenly subsided. Inside this Mantuo Shanzhuang, she did not know who was a good person and who was a bad person, but now, Wang Yuyan knew what a bad person looked like.
"Sorry, sorry."
Gu Qing restrained his smile and said calmly, "I just heard you say Murong Fu discusses martial arts every day, and I couldn't help but laugh."
Gu Qing was already laughing, and thinking of this point made him laugh even more brilliantly.
Wang Yuyan immediately thought of Murong Fu's record of being hammered down by Gu Qing, and became even more angry.
"Gu Guo Guo Daxia."
Lady Wang interjected at the right time, stopping the two from continuing to argue, and asked curiously, "I see Gu Guo Guo Daxia is young and possesses such superb martial arts. Do you have any unusual encounters?"
After Gu Qing practiced the Bright Jade Art, his appearance became more and more outstanding, and he knew everything about Lady Wang in great detail, and also knew where the Little Formless Art was hidden. Lady Wang suspected that Gu Qing had a mysterious connection with Li Qiushui.
"No, no."
!
Gu Qing said, "To have this strength today, it all depends on my own efforts."
Gu Qing hadn't used any technology like high-level people channeling power, strange fruits increasing power, or Great Return Pills. At most, when he was in the *Divine Eagle* world, he ate some gallbladders of the Bodhisattva snakes and usually spent some merit points.
Lady Wang heard Gu Qing deny it, so she didn't get to the bottom of it.
For the next two days, Gu Qing continued to look for usable moves in the Langhuan Jade Cave and memorized them, until his merit points were almost exhausted. Seeing that there were still many secret manuals he hadn't read, Gu Qing couldn't help but sigh. He could only go out to collect some merit points first, then turn back and continue memorizing.
That day, a small boat left Mantuo Shanzhuang. Madam Wang, Wang Yuyan, and Mu Wanqing were all on this boat, with the female servants of Mantuo Shanzhuang behind them. After leaving Mantuo Shanzhuang, they first sailed toward the direction of Swallow Dock, and until they neared Swallow Dock and alarmed the people inside, the boat turned again and drifted toward the direction of Suzhou.
Murong Fu sat on the boat, following from afar, watching the boat sail into a cluster of lotus flowers and suddenly stop. Then Gu Qing leaped into the water.
Murong Fu stared over and saw the water bubble for a while, then the ripples became larger and larger. Suddenly, a coffin floated up from the water, and with a loud sound, the coffin flew into the air and landed steadily on a boat.
Murong Fu's teeth were almost bitten to the point of bleeding. This coffin was exactly Murong Bo's coffin!
At this time, the Murong family had searched everywhere around Taihu Lake and had never found the location of Murong Bo's coffin. Now seeing Murong Bo's coffin soaked in the water was another great humiliation for Murong Fu, and he wished he could fight Gu Qing to the death.
"You hid the coffin in here..."
Wang Yuyan felt it was hard to comment.
"Murong Bo has no opinion."
Gu Qing said with a smile.
This sounded to Wang Yuyan and Mu Wanqing as if Gu Qing had communicated with the underworld and agreed with Murong Bo.
Recently hearing about Murong Fu's crushing defeat and the coffin being dug up, Murong Bo had already rushed to Suzhou overnight and had also seen this scene from afar. While feeling hateful, Murong Bo's gaze fell on Murong Fu.
Child, I have an opinion!
