Love is not funny, what is funny is the person who laughs at it.

People who live seriously will not consider anything other than love. They just need to love and be loved. A man and a woman, it's that simple.

Identity, distance, age...these are the pros and cons that philistine people silently calculate in their minds, and they have nothing to do with the relationship between men and women.

Huangfu Sisi never felt that her identity with Gu Qing was an obstacle. She was also the daughter of a general, and she was also educated in poetry and calligraphy. Even though she is now a shameful criminal, she still retains the feeling of being a general deep in her heart.

Female pride.

She didn't feel that she was not worthy of Gu Qing, nor did she care that Gu Qing actually had a fiancée. She didn't even mind that even if she was accepted by Gu Qing, she would only be a concubine.

She has a pure love for Gu Qing, without any unnecessary impurities. You like me and I like you, that's enough.

If we must talk about obstacles, Bian Lingcheng is the obstacle between her and Gu Qing.

Huangfu Sisi came to see Bian Lingcheng tonight just to remove this obstacle. She no longer wanted to be Bian Lingcheng's tool, let alone Bian Lingcheng use her to deal with Gu Qing. Although Bian Lingcheng has not done anything to harm Gu Qing so far.

instructions, but she knew that if she didn't resist, sooner or later, Bian Lingcheng would force her to hurt Gu Qing.

This is what she least wants to see.

Bian Lingcheng was laughing wildly, as if he had heard a very funny joke, and he couldn't stand upright with laughter.

In the eyes of a philistine like Bian Lingcheng, the love between a man and a woman must weigh the pros and cons. The identity of both parties, the interests of both parties, the family origins of both parties, etc., can only enhance each other's interests or power.

Lou's love is a match made in heaven.

The difference in status between Huangfu Sisi and Gu Qing was so great that he couldn't help but laugh wildly.

It's so inappropriate. One is a county prince and military envoy with a bright future, and the other is an imperial prisoner who has been hunted by the imperial court for many years. How mentally retarded must Lord Gu be to accept such a woman into the Gu family.

And this stupid woman in front of me actually came to the door for a hopeless relationship between a man and a woman, trying to end the hijacked relationship. This... is even more ridiculous.

Did she think she could be easily married by Gu Qing without being held hostage by him?

So simple to the point of stupidity.

"Huangfu Sisi, are you blinded by lard?" Bian Lingcheng's laughter suddenly stopped, and his face suddenly turned cold as frost.

Huangfu Sisi's cheek was still bruised and swollen, and Bian Lingcheng slapped her hard, showing no pity for this beautiful woman.

"Border Inspector, I just want to feel no guilt when facing him," Huangfu Sisi smiled lightly and said, "Whether you go and expose me or send someone to kill me, even if it means death, I will

I want to die cleanly, I... don’t want to be a chess piece in your hands anymore. Are you clear enough?"

Bian Lingcheng smiled again: "I understand, I understand very well. I can see that you are here to die tonight."

Huangfu Sisi's bruised pretty face broke out into a smile. She looked very embarrassed, but her smile was still so charming.

"If my death can end all these embarrassing things, then I might as well die."

Bian Lingcheng sneered and said: "Huangfu Sisi, you are no longer the daughter of Jiedushi. Now you are just a bereaved dog. Even if you die, it is insignificant. You have no chips in your hand, so what terms can you negotiate with me?"

"Gu Qing? Do you think Gu Qing is attracted to you? Don't think I don't know that one of the clerks in your store has my spies. Gu Qing only eats and drinks in your store. He has no affection for you. Kucha City is dead.

What does a female shopkeeper mean to Gu Qing?"

When Gu Qing was mentioned, Huangfu Sisi looked sad.

Bian Lingcheng was right. Gu Qing may not have any affection for her. In his eyes, food is more attractive than her. He only acknowledged her as a friend and was willing to protect her. But this promise has nothing to do with the relationship between a man and a woman.

It doesn't matter, he really only thinks of her as a friend.

For a man who doesn't love me, facing death without hesitation in a place where he can't see seems... a bit ridiculous.

does it worth?

Perhaps, he was the only ray of light in the endless darkness, giving her hope of life and making her seem to find the meaning of life in this small town that was boring and desperate day after day.

Arguments, bickering, vicious jokes, disgusted faces when picky eaters, and occasional expressions of care and pity...

Not understanding the meaning of happiness, she is just a moth that subconsciously flies towards the fire. She is not afraid of death, she just wants to fly towards the light.

Huangfu Sisi had a devilish smile on his lips and whispered softly: "It's worth it..."

Bian Lingcheng didn't hear clearly and glanced at her in confusion, with a sharp look in his eyes, and suddenly called the attendant's name.

The door opened and the entourage appeared outside.

"Take her out of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion..." Bian Lingcheng said a few words coldly: "Kill her with a stick and bury her in a wild place."

The attendant took the order, grabbed Huangfu Sisi's arm and walked out.

Huangfu Sisi smiled sadly, did not resist, and stumbled out with his entourage.

Just as he walked down the stone steps, Bian Lingcheng suddenly stopped his entourage, his expression became hesitant.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to kill Huangfu Sisi due to sudden kindness, but he was weighing the risks.

According to the report from the inn’s informant, although Gu Qing did not have romantic feelings for Huangfu Sisi, he was very impressed with Huangfu Sisi’s cooking skills and almost had to eat there every one or two days. If Huangfu Sisi was killed,

, Gu Qing might pursue the case, but then he would be passive.

After hesitating again and again, Bian Lingcheng gritted his teeth and said, "Don't kill him yet. Let's check again in a few days. Find a remote room in the backyard of the Jiedushi Mansion and lock him up. No one is allowed to approach."

The entourage pushed Huangfu Sisi to the backyard.

Bian Lingcheng let out a long yawn. He was tired tonight and should have gone to bed long ago.

Lying on the bed in a daze, before Bian Lingcheng fell asleep, he was still thinking about how to write a memorial that would satisfy Yushi Pei, and all kinds of colorful words flashed through his mind like a lantern.

As for Huangfu Sisi's life and death, Bian Lingcheng had not thought about it at all.

She was just a public businesswoman. Since Gu Qing didn't have any romantic feelings for her, he probably wouldn't ask too many questions even if she disappeared. She just lacked a cook with suitable cooking tastes, so she just got used to it.

If Gu Qing insists on pursuing her, hey, she is a prisoner of the imperial court. If her identity is revealed, Gu Qing will not dare to pursue her further.

…………

Three days later.

Gu Qing was in a very unhappy mood, and his face was so gloomy that frost could be wiped off his face.

He hasn't eaten Huangfu Sisi's food for three days, so he can only eat barbecue by himself these days. Eating too much barbecue will cause internal heat, which is especially harmful to the boy's health.

Huangfu Sisi disappeared for three days without any warning. He disappeared without any reason. It makes no sense for a living person to disappear out of thin air in a small border town like Qiuci City.

The business of the inn has almost come to a standstill. Only a few regular patrons are still living in the wing in the backyard. The kitchen in the front hall has not turned off the fire. After all, there is still a cook, but the dishes cooked by the cook are not appetizing to Gu Qing.

On the fourth day, Gu Qing came to Fuzhi Inn again and sat in the front hall of the inn in the morning.

He grabbed a waiter casually and asked him the whereabouts of the shopkeeper with a cold face. The waiter knew this person as Jiedushi. He was so frightened that he couldn't answer. He only said that he had not seen the shopkeeper three days ago and had not appeared until today. I don't know.

Where she went, she didn't leave a single word behind. Several of the waiters in the inn were at a loss as to whether the inn would continue to operate.

Gu Qing frowned, suddenly feeling that something was wrong.

There is no reason to disappear out of thin air without even saying hello. This is not like Huangfu Sisi's personality at all. The woman is usually very cheerful. After all, she is in the profession of welcoming people and sending them off. Although she has no relatives in this city, she

At least she has a friend like Gu Qing. If she plans to leave, she will at least tell him and take care of the aftermath of the inn.

In the current situation, it was as if she had been kidnapped suddenly and disappeared inexplicably without explaining anything.

"Could it be someone sent by An Lushan to do this again?" Gu Qing muttered to himself.

There was no way, An Lushan did have serious suspicions. He had bribed archers to carry out sabotage before, but this time something happened without any warning, so Gu Qing had to be the first to suspect An Lushan.

The Anxi Jiedushi Mansion not only manages the army, but also manages the security of the city. There are officials in the Jiedushi Mansion who are responsible for public security, and there are also bad commanders and bad people who are responsible for catching thieves and solving crimes. It is just because of the Anxi Festival.

Dushi Mansion is a military town, and the atmosphere of the army is too strong inside. The presence of people like bad officers in the government is not high. Gu Qing has rarely dealt with them since he took office.

This time we have to deal with it.

"Han Jie, let the bad guys in the city come to see me immediately!" Gu Qing ordered decisively.

An hour later, a bad handsome man crawled to the inn, stood in front of Gu Qing and saluted hurriedly, not even daring to wipe the sweat off his face.

"The Marquis summoned me. I am patrolling the streets. I came late. I apologize, Marquis." The bad commander saluted and said in panic.

Gu Qing has been in office for more than a year, and this is the first time that he has summoned the bad commander so formally. It is obvious that there is something important, and the bad commander is panicking.

Gu Qing said with a cold face: "I want to report to the official!"

The bad handsome man was stunned, and his heart became more and more frightened.

You are the biggest official in the four towns of Anxi. Who do you report to?

"Hou, Lord Hou, the villain is timid and can't be scared. Don't joke with the villain..." the bad handsome man said with a bitter face.

"Are you familiar with me? Who is kidding you? I want to report to the official. Didn't you hear me clearly?"

The bad handsome man said in fear: "Yes, Lord Marquis, please give me your instructions if you have something to do."

A hint of worry appeared in Gu Qing's eyes, and he said: "I have a friend who has been missing for four days. She disappeared without even saying hello. This is not normal. You should immediately mobilize the government officials to find her whereabouts."

The bad handsome man asked cautiously: "Does the friend of the Marquis who disappeared have a name? Can you tell me what he looks like?"

Gu Qing pointed to his feet and said: "You should all know this person. She is the manager of this inn. Her name is... Du Sisi?"

The name was a bit unfamiliar. Gu Qing had never called her by her name, and he didn't know the pseudonym Huangfu Sisi had always used.

Naturally, we know the female shopkeeper of Fuzhi Inn, Bad Handsome, and they greet each other warmly every day while patrolling the streets.

Then the bad handsome man was surprised: "Shopkeeper Du is missing?"

Gu Qing said impatiently: "I don't like answering nonsense, take action quickly!"

The bad handsome man said hurriedly: "Yes, I will launch a city-wide search for the bad guys from Jiefu."

Gu Qing added: "If we don't have enough manpower, I can help. Anyway, we have to find her whereabouts as soon as possible. Otherwise, my life may be in danger."

Then Gu Qing turned to Han Jie and said, "Has Wang Gui recovered?"

Han Jie bowed and said: "I have recovered, and I am very happy and alive."
