497 This Time, I Don’t Want Him to Escape Again
Gu Nuo’er didn’t give him a chance to answer.
She continued to speak softly, wanting to break the man in black’s psychological defense.
She whispered to the other party, “Father is the most reasonable. The rumors outside that he’s a tyrant are all fake!
“As long as I tell him to spare your life, Father will definitely agree. At that time, you’ll get to go home and I won’t pursue the matter. Wouldn’t that be good?”
Gu Nuo’er backed off a little and crossed her arms, muttering and thinking.
“Oh, of course, you can choose not to agree. After all, if you pledge your loyalty to your master to the death and refuse to confess who had instructed you, I’ll respect you as a man!
“Unfortunately, think about it carefully. After you die, will the person behind you be suspicious by nature? Will they be afraid that my father will be able to find out about your family and interrogate them about who you’re working for?
“If the other party is ruthless, then, black-clothed uncle… Even though I’m young. I understand the logic. Your family will definitely be…”
She made a throat-slitting gesture.
Her eyes were wide open and she stuck out her pink tongue. “Silenced!”
Gu Nuo’er suddenly pouted and pondered. “Hmm? Thinking about it this way, it doesn’t seem to be a loss for you guys to be able to reunite under the netherworld. Alright~ black-clothed, I understand why you don’t want to say it now.”
She blinked mischievously. “Because even as ghosts, you’re still a family~”
After saying that, Gu Nuo’er placed her small hands on the ground and prepared to get up and return to Gu Yihan’s side.
Everything she said just now seemed to be talking to herself.
In reality, every sentence was like a thorn that stabbed into the man in black’s heart!
People he cared about… he had them.
He didn’t want them to live the same way he did, with their lives on the line.
The moment Gu Nuo’er turned around, the man in black suddenly kowtowed.
He actually cried bitterly. “Your Majesty, Princess, the person who… instructed me is General Song, Song Quan!”
Gu Yihan, who was sitting on the throne, was not surprised.
On the other hand, Gu Nuo’er, who had her back facing the man in black, had an impatient expression on her face as if she was saying “It’s him again”.
Her pink face puffed up in anger.
This big baddie Song was like a persistent ghost that wouldn’t leave!
If she didn’t deal with him now, did he really think that she, Baby Nuo, was an ordinary fish?!
He wanted to send her to Heavenly Mountain or lock her in an icehouse.
This showed how much Song Quan hated Gu Nuo’er!
The man in black almost confessed the entire plan.
It turned out that a month ago, Song Quan had found a few wild monks who knew some spells to cast a nightmare curse on the emperor.
However, the emperor was the son of the heavens after all. One would have to put in a lot of effort if one wishes to harm the emperor.
Song Quan bribed the low-ranking official from the Directorate of Astronomy to let the nightmare curse take a chance to slip in when the emperor was at his most fatigued moment.
The contents of the dream were not fixed.
However, Gu Nuo’er happened to have recently barged into a demon cave that had a demon sealed in.
Gu Yihan was worried about his daughter’s safety, so he succumbed to the curse.
The events that followed were a lot simpler.
Firstly, it was Gu Yihan making an inquiring the Directorate of Astronomy, and then Song Quan advocating to send the princess away.
All of this was to make use of Gu Yihan’s fatherly love for his daughter.
Gu Yihan wished he could summon Song Quan into the palace right away and hack him to death.
However, Gu Nuo’er was still present. Gu Yihan suppressed the anger that was about to spew out.
He said gently, filled with fatherly love, “Nuo’er, let Father handle the rest. I’ll send you back to the Qiushui Palace first, alright?”
However, Gu Nuo’er’s big eyes lit up. “No, Father. This matter hasn’t been settled yet.”
Although they had interrogated the assassin to have him confess to who the mastermind was, Song Quan had always been cunning.
However, Gu Nuo’er didn’t want him to escape this time.
It was autumn. It was time to let the Song Family have a taste of their own medicine.
