Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 382 Cruel Woman

“Besides Zhou Yu, does your mother have any other children?”

Zhou Lin shook his head, "No, my mother only has one son, my brother. Now that my brother is dead, she will not let you and Young Master Lu go."

 Gu Panxia pursed her lips, "In that case, her son is dead, and the only person she can rely on is you, so don't worry, she won't kill you, at least not now!"

Zhou Lin frowned, "That's because you don't understand my mother. She has lost her son now, and I look very similar to my brother. For a period of time before my brother died, she kept talking about me when she saw me. Don’t die together.”

He frowned and was very confused, "I don't want to go back and be tortured, why don't you kill me so that I can die more happily!"

 Gu Panxia snorted disdainfully. She tightened the horse's rope as if to leave. When Zhou Lin saw her, he hurried to the horse and shouted: "Hey, you can't leave without killing me!"

 Gu Panxia sneered, "I don't have time to chat with you. If you really want to die, why don't you just take the sword in your hand and wipe it on your neck?"

Zhou Lin's eyes widened in disbelief, "Wow, why are you so vicious? You look like you are only fourteen or fifteen years old, how can you be so cruel?"

 Gu Panxia was dumbfounded when she heard this. She looked at him with a half-smile but said, "I let you commit suicide because I am cruel and vicious. Then if you let me kill you, what are you?"

 “I can’t do this myself!”

 He hesitated for a moment, and finally hung his head in frustration.

 Gu Panxia made a sound and patted Lie Yan. Lie Yan seemed to understand what she meant and passed by Zhou Lin directly, leaving only billowing smoke and dust.

 “Ahem—bah!”

Zhou Lin was choked by the smoke and coughed. He ran to one side. When the smoke dispersed, Gu Panxia had long disappeared.

Zhou Lin angrily threw the sword in his hand to the ground, and he sat on the ground dejectedly.

More than a dozen secret guards were dead, but they could not harm Gu Panxia in the slightest. If he returned to the Zhou Mansion, he would definitely die.

He touched the purse at his waist and raised a proud smile on his lips.

 “Fortunately, I am smart and prepared!”

He didn’t really come to kill Gu Panxia, ​​he just wanted to teach her a lesson, but Mrs. Zhou’s secret guards were around, so he had to show off.

 Fortunately, the woman had no intention of killing him, otherwise he would really not be able to see the sun tomorrow!

He took out the silver notes in his wallet and counted them. There were three thousand taels in total. He stuffed the banknotes back into his wallet with satisfaction, picked up the sword he had thrown on the ground, and walked towards the opposite road to Gu Panxia.

Even Gu Panxia did not expect that one day in the future, he would meet this boy again in the world.

 Fifteen days later, Beijing.

 The towering and solid city gate is covered with white snow, and there is a constant flow of people entering the city.

Gu Panxia was dressed in plain clothes. She led Lie Yan and walked slowly behind the crowd. The light blue cloak covered her from head to toe, making her appearance unclear.

 “Go slowly, go slowly!”

 The city guards wore armor and stood under the city gate to direct the crowds and check the merchants' goods.

When it was Panxia's turn to look at her, the guards' eyes were all focused on Lieyan beside her. A sharp-eyed guard asked doubtfully: "Isn't this the war horse that Young Master Lu rode when he returned in triumph last year?"

Gu Panxia was slightly startled. She really didn't expect that these guards even knew a horse in Lu Yuan. She couldn't imagine how much influence Lu Yuan had in the capital.
