Chapter 499 See You at the Cliff
Chapter 499 See You at the Cliff
Another month passed in the blink of an eye.
As we enter early autumn, the weather is no longer as hot as it was a while ago.
During this period, Gu Qingyuan had people keep a close eye on General Gu's food and only let them eat after making sure that there was nothing in it.
Fortunately, after fainting twice, and because of the strict control of food, General Gu never fainted again.
The students of the academy have arrived one after another.
Not seeing Xixi go over, the people from the academy even sent someone to the Gu family to ask.
After learning that the two children of the Gu family had disappeared some time ago, the people in the academy said with regret: "I hope the two children are okay."
After that, he left the Gu family.
Gu Qingyuan never gave up looking for Xixi and Xiaonian. She would dream of the two children covered in blood, crying for their mother.
At that time, she felt as if her heart was being stabbed by a knife.
Just when she was at a loss, she suddenly received an unsigned letter.
The letter read, "If you still want to see your two children, please meet at Broken Head Cliff at midnight three days later. Come alone."
Gu Qingyuan clenched the letter in his hand and glanced in the direction where the letter was thrown.
The letter was tied to the end of an arrow shot from outside, and the arrow looked like an ordinary arrow.
Without hesitation, Gu Qingyuan immediately grabbed the letter and chased outside.
But the person on the other end seemed to have done it on purpose. After delivering the letter to her, he disappeared, leaving her unable to find out who did it.
Now, this unsigned letter is the only clue. It concerns her two children. She has to go even if it means going through fire and water.
the other side.
After the Sixth Princess confirmed that Gu Qingyuan had received the letter, she left with peace of mind.
She knew that Gu Qingyuan had already started to have people pay attention to General Gu, so she didn't let Luo Jin continue to put drugs in General Gu's food.
But there were already a lot of toxins in General Gu's body, and the poisons had been corroding General Gu's body for years. General Gu was afraid that he would not live long.
The better news is that the Queen Mother's health is getting worse and worse. She was not in good health to begin with, and with the former Crown Princess paving the way for her to take action, coupled with the fact that she herself does not take care of her body, I am afraid that in less than a year, the throne will be hers to sit on.
The Sixth Princess had a determined smile on her face.
She contacted the people from Tianji Pavilion and said that she would call Gu Qingyuan to the Cliff of Beheading in three days. By then, both the two children and Gu Qingyuan would die there!
Naturally, she didn't plan to show up in person.
She has a group of people under her command, and when the time comes, she will let them work together with the people from Tianji Pavilion to deal with Gu Qingyuan.
The Sixth Princess walked briskly, as if she couldn't wait to see her plan succeed.
......
After looking around, she didn't find anything unusual. If it weren't for the letter in her hand reminding her that there was someone there, Gu Qingyuan would have thought it was an illusion.
She could only take the letter back first.
However, this also indirectly reminded her that the two children were still alive, which was great news for her.
During this period, they tried their best to find the two children.
Especially since Wen Shubai was pregnant and looked haggard, Gu Qingyuan felt very distressed.
Now she was going to tell him the news about the two children.
In Wen Shubai's room.
He looked bored, as if he had no interest in anything.
This is indeed the case. Xixi and Xiaonian are missing, and he has gone from being hopeful at the beginning to almost desperate now.
Yu Shui stood beside him, looking at his sunken cheeks. His lips looked much lighter, and he didn't even care to take care of his hair.
The whole person looks haggard and lifeless.
Suddenly, Wen Shubai asked him, "Do you think I can see those two children again?"
If he could see Xixi and Xiaonian again, he would never get angry with Xixi as often as before.
As long as Xixi can return to him safely, even if she is still naughty and gets into trouble like before, or fails to meet his expectations, he will no longer scold her, but will be a kind father.
He began to reflect on whether he was too strict with Xixi. He used to punish her by not allowing her to eat, making her stand in the corner, and often blaming her for being too naughty.
But now think about it, she was originally just a five-year-old child, at the age when she was playful and mischievous.
Maybe Xixi was blaming him, so she refused to come back to see him.
Yu Shui quickly said, "How could that be? Master, the Second Miss and the Third Miss will definitely come back safely."
Although Yu Shui said this, he was actually unsure.
In the past two months, he had said this to his master countless times, but until now they had not even seen the shadow of those two people.
Yu Shui couldn't help but even start to think of the worst. What if...something happened to the two young ladies?
He himself shuddered with fear.
Everyone knows that the young master and these two children are the master's life, although the master seems to be extremely strict with the second young lady.
But after the second young lady was punished, the master would quietly go to her room at night to see her, and if she was injured, he would secretly apply medicine to her.
Wen Shubai smiled bleakly and said, "I hope so."
His knuckles turned white, as if he was trying hard to control his emotions.
"By the way, Master, what would you like to eat? I'll go get some food and cook it."
"No, I can't eat."
Wen Shubai was telling the truth.
In the past two months, since he learned that his two children were missing, he has not had a good night's sleep or a peaceful meal.
Until Yu Shui saw Gu Qingyuan walking towards them, he hurriedly said to Wen Shubai: "Master, look! The young master is coming this way. There must be some news from the young master."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qingyuan stepped in.
"Abai."
Hearing her calling his name, Wen Shubai looked at her and asked the question he had asked countless times.
"How's it going, my dear wife? Is there any news about Xixi and Xiaonian?"
He no longer holds out much hope.
"look."
Gu Qingyuan took out the wrinkled note from her sleeve, which told her to go to the Cliff of Beheading to meet the two children in three days.
Wen Shubai took a quick look and suddenly noticed, "Broken Head Cliff?"
Gu Qingyuan nodded and said, "That's right, so we'll go and see in three days."
"But," he frowned and said worriedly, "this Broken Head Cliff, and asking my wife to go there at night, could there be a trick?"
Broken Head Cliff is outside the city and is famous for its height and danger.
Few people go there because it is too dangerous.
The Broken Head Cliff is towering into the clouds, with rugged rocks on top. Once you get lost in it, you may not know how long it will take to get out.
"No matter what, for the sake of the two children, I have to go and see it."
