Chapter 454: Good and Evil
Chen Qing followed Huizhen to the guest hall.
On the left side inside the guest hall sat a man around fifty years old.
He wore dark blue common clothes, had a square face, and kept a short beard under his chin, trimmed very neatly.
Though not wearing official robes or conspicuous ornaments, the composed bearing of one long accustomed to high position naturally emanated from him.
This was precisely Marquis Jingnan Gu Chengzong.
Beside him stood a woman wearing goose-yellow fitted attire with her hair tied in a high ponytail. Her features were heroic, her appearance bright and beautiful. This was precisely Princess Changle Gu Mingyue.
Seeing Chen Qing enter, her gaze lingered on him for an instant before she nodded slightly, which counted as greeting him.
Chen Qing stepped forward several paces, cupped his fists and bowed, "This junior Chen Qing pays respects to Marquis Jingnan."
"No need for excessive courtesy, please sit." Gu Chengzong raised his hand in a supporting gesture.
