The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world

Chapter 344 The Top of the Forbidden City

The hunchbacked old man suddenly let out a charming laugh, "How did you recognize me?"

This voice startled Ma Xiuzhen, and she stared at the hunchbacked old man, "Are you Aunt Gongsun?"

Aunt Gongsun looked at her feet. She saw a pair of cyan hemp boots, which tightly wrapped her red shoes. Su Shaoying could not have seen it based on the shoes on her feet.

"Yes, I can tell from your shoes." Su Shaoying said.

Aunt Gongsun was very curious, "No way, my red shoes are hidden inside, you can't see them."

"Who said I saw your red shoes?"

"What's going on?" Aunt Gongsun asked, "I bought these shoes from a secondhand stall. They are definitely ordinary people's shoes."

"But the shoes are too big." Su Shaoyang said earnestly, "You are such a hunchbacked and short old man, but you are still wearing such big shoes. Why don't you doubt me?"

"Is it big?" Aunt Gongsun blinked.

"Maybe the big one is not obvious, but in the eyes of experts, it is enough to become the target of suspicion." Su Shaoying said lightly, "Ye Gucheng also discovered you just now, didn't he?"

Ye Gucheng also glanced at Aunt Gongsun before leaving. Su Shaoying noticed it, and of course Aunt Gongsun also saw it.

Aunt Gongsun sighed, "Lu Xiaofeng has a dog nose and his eyesight is so strong. I am really under too much pressure."

"Why don't you take off your red shoes?" Su Shaoying couldn't help but ask.

Aunt Gongsun said calmly, "Why don't you put down the sword in your hand?"

Then Su Shaoying handed the sword in her hand to Ma Xiuzhen.

Aunt Gongsun, "..."

"No wonder you and Lu Xiaofeng became friends." Aunt Gongsun laughed angrily, "Anyway, the red shoes are the symbol of our sisters, and we will never take them off."

"You're going to be a rogue if you can't say it, right?" Su Shaoying also laughed.

"Playing rogue is what women are best at." Aunt Gongsun said with a smile, "It just so happens that I am also a woman."

Su Shaoying shook her head, "You are wrong."

"Where did I go wrong?" Aunt Gongsun asked.

"Playing rogue should be what beautiful women are best at." Su Shaoying said.

Aunt Gongsun smiled happily, "Am I a beautiful woman?"

"You are just an old man now." Su Shaoying said calmly, "What do you think others will think of an old man who can act coquettishly?"

After hearing this, Aunt Gongsun deliberately pinched her orchid fingers in the image of a hunchbacked old man, twisting her figure into a voluptuous and charming curve, and said delicately, "Like this?"

Ma Xiuzhen couldn't help but tilt her head to cover her eyes. The image in front of her was really too eye-catching.

Su Shaoying also put her hand on her forehead. She didn't expect Aunt Gongsun to be such a person. She couldn't help but sigh, "You and Lu Xiaofeng have learned badly."

Aunt Gongsun curled her lips and said, "You don't have to belittle yourself."

Su Shaoying nodded and said, "Thank you for the praise."

Aunt Gongsun glanced at Ma Xiuzhen and looked at Su Shaoying, "Ouyang is waiting for you in the capital."

"Have you seen Ouyang?" Su Shaoying asked.

"She has arrived in the capital a few days ago." Aunt Gongsun glanced sideways at Su Shaoying, "She is in Yiqingyuan."

Su Shaoying blinked, "Isn't this Yiqingyuan also your property?"

Aunt Gongsun smiled slightly, "What do you think?"

"I can't guess." Su Shaoying asked with a smile, "You came to Zhangjiakou, isn't it because you also have property to deal with in Zhangjiakou?"

Aunt Gongsun turned her eyes and continued, "What do you think?"

"Ye Gucheng is the eldest teacher of Pingnan Prince's Palace. Monk Honest is also related to some palaces, let alone you..." Su Shaoying said leisurely, "Are you here to see Ye Gucheng?"

Aunt Gongsun's pupils shrank and she took a breath, "Can't you be a little stupid?"

"I heard that many people have placed bets on the battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue. Some people are betting on Ye Gucheng to win with three bets?" Su Shaoying asked.

Aunt Gongsun sighed, "Exactly."

"So Ye Gucheng was poisoned by Tang Tianyi's poisonous sand, and the honest monk just happened to be a witness?" Su Shaoying and Aunt Gongsun had fought side by side, so they decided to test it out, "Then what are you doing here? To heal Ye Gucheng's wounds, or to take care of him?" Did he disguise himself and return to the capital?"

Aunt Gongsun shook her head, "I can't tell you this, but you can rest assured that the battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue will definitely be a fair duel, and I will go and watch it when the time comes."

Su Shaoying raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you know where the two of them dueled?"

There was a hint of cunning in Aunt Gongsun's eyes, "If you can guess where they are dueling, I will tell you the reason why I came to Zhangjiakou."

"Really?" Su Shaoying asked.

"Really!" Aunt Gongsun affirmed.

"Then I'm welcome." Su Shaoying said lightly, "August 15th has been changed to September 15th. Naturally, the Purple Gold Peak has been changed to the Forbidden Peak. A peerless swordsman, a peerless duel, naturally It needs to be in a unique place.”

Su Shaoying smiled and said, "In the capital, what place is better than the top of the Forbidden City?"

Aunt Gongsun's pupils shrank suddenly, "Did you guess this yourself?"

Su Shaoying smiled and said, "If the Shu Palace was not involved in this bet, I should have guessed it myself."

"The King of Shu sat in the southwest and rarely participated in the affairs of other princes." Aunt Gongsun sighed, "You guessed it right, the Purple Gold Peak was changed to the Forbidden Peak. After Ximen Chuixue changed the location of the decisive battle to the capital, he let Ye Gucheng chose the specific location, and then Ye Gucheng chose the top of the Forbidden City.”

When Ma Xiuzhen heard this, he couldn't help but gasped, "They are so brave!"

Aunt Gongsun said calmly, "These two people are fearless."

"Don't change the subject." Su Shaoying waved her hand in front of Aunt Gongsun, "You and Ye Gucheng don't know each other. Almost no one knows the location of their decisive battle now, but you knew it in advance. Obviously Prince Pingnan's Palace was also involved in this matter. .”

Aunt Gongsun nodded, "Yes, the duel between these two peerless swordsmen not only caused a sensation in the entire world, but also the Dukes of Gong and other princes in the court heard about it."

"The duel in the arena may be fair and square, but once it comes to the court, if there is no conspiracy and intrigue, I won't believe in the character of the adults in the court." Su Shaoying said with a smile.

Aunt Gongsun also smiled, "You are right, I did come to see this battle. I came when I knew that Ye Gucheng was going to kill Tang Tianyi, and I also wanted to bring a letter to Ye Gucheng."

Su Shaoying's eyes flickered, "Who will help?"

Aunt Gongsun said, "Prince Pingnan's Mansion."
