Gu Qingtang returned to the study, sat in front of the case in silence for a moment, stood up again, walked to the door of the study, and waved to Xiao Wu, the boy in the courtyard, “Xiao Wu, come here.”
Xiao Wu nodded and walked over, “Prince-in-law, what are your orders?”
Gu Qingtang smiled and said: “Xiao Wu, if the princess comes to see me later, she will say that I am already asleep, do you understand?”
Xiao Wu scratched his head, half understanding and half not understanding, “What if the princess insists on coming in?”
Gu Qingtang shook his head and smiled: “Don’t worry, she won’t come in. I am an injured person, and she is reluctant to come in and wake me up.” After saying that, she glanced from a distance and caught a glimpse of the princess. After giving Xiao Wu a wink, he retreated into the study and locked the door.
The little princess Yin Ning came over with Xiao Xi. Before she reached the door of the study, she saw the light in the study suddenly went out.
“Princess… Prince Consort, he… is already… soundly asleep…” Xiao Wu finished hesitantly and looked at the little princess guiltily.
Yin Ning glanced thoughtfully at the darkened study room and heard a few faint snorings – it seemed that this annoying guy was really tired, and he had even been subdued by her.
“Let her have a good rest, Xiao Xi, let’s go.” Yin Ning said lightly, turned around and walked a few steps, then couldn’t help but look back at the study, always feeling a little empty in her heart.
“Princess… why don’t you ask the slave to wake up the Prince Consort?” Xiao Xi asked in a low voice.
Yin Ning shook his head, “I want to think about something quietly tonight, and it’s good that this annoying guy is not around.”
“Yes.”
Yin Ning sighed softly, looked down at the brocade box in her hand, and seemed to have thought of something. She said to Xiao Wu: “When the consort wakes up tomorrow, let her come to see me in the bedroom.”
Xiao Wu nodded: “Yes.”
“Xiao Xi, let’s go.” After saying this, Yin Ning took Xiao Xi back to the dormitory.
Gu Qingtang, who had been standing behind the study door, breathed a sigh of relief. After waiting for a while, he opened the door and walked out.
Xiao Wu exclaimed: “Prince-in-law, you didn’t sleep?!”
Gu Qingtang made a low-pitched gesture, “Shh… the prince-in-law is sleeping… you didn’t see me… do you understand me?”
Xiao Wu was confused when he heard this, “You are obviously the Prince Consort! You are not dazzled!”
“…” Gu Qingtang glanced at Xiao Wu dumbfounded, “Just think carefully about what this sentence means. I’ll go for a walk and come back before dawn.”
Xiao Wu was stunned and said, “Prince-in-law, the princess has ordered you to take a good rest in the house these days…”
Gu Qingtang blinked and smiled, “I’m leaving.”
“Prince-in-law…master…” Xiao Wu was afraid of shouting too loudly and disturbing more people.
Gu Qingtang waved her hand with a smile, without any intention of stopping. She quietly turned to the back door, opened the back door gently, and ran out quickly.
Xiao Wu followed all the way to the back door. The moment the back door closed, he was pacing back and forth anxiously, muttering to himself: “What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?”
After serving the little princess, Xiao Xi passed by the backyard and saw the anxious Xiao Wu in the distance. She felt very strange and walked towards Xiao Wu.
“Xiao Wu, shouldn’t you be waiting outside the study?”
The sudden sound startled Xiao Wu, and he shouted in horror: “Xiao Xi, you scared me to death!”
“Say! What bad thing have you done?”
“How could I have done anything wrong?”
“If you don’t serve me well, what are you doing at the back door? Do you want to sneak out? Oh! Are you a gambler? Want to sneak out and gamble at night?!”
“I didn’t! The person who slipped out was obviously…”
Halfway through his words, Xiao Wu stopped quickly, feeling something was wrong.
Xiao Xi said seriously: “Tell me! Who slipped out?!”
“…”
“If you don’t say anything again, I will report it to the princess!”
“Don’t… the prince-in-law said, I didn’t see him…”
“Consort?!”
So, when Gu Qingtang arrived at Chunfeng Tower safely, the little princess Yin Ning was shocked to know the fact that the consort had slipped out.
You didn’t rest at home at night, and you even planned an empty city and ran out? !
Where will she go?
“Princess, do you want to send someone to find the Prince Consort?”
“No need…” Yin Ning secretly gritted her teeth, “A monk can escape but cannot escape from the temple. I still don’t believe that she won’t come back!”
At this time, Gu Qingtang, who was sitting in the small pavilion of Chunfeng Tower and drinking hot tea, had a shiver for no reason.
Liu Yun’er pursed her lips and smiled: “I just went home now and sneaked into my place again at night. Qingtang, you are really brave.”
Gu Qingtang smiled and said: “I’m not very courageous. I just said a few words and then went back.”
“Raise your hands!” Mingyue came over with gauze for wounds and tugged on her clothes, “Are you not brave enough? You knew that the prince was wooing the eldest prince, so you went ahead and killed him. “Okay, have you ever thought about the consequences?” He then tore off her belt and said, “I’ll change the medicine for you. After you finish speaking, go back and take care of yourself earlier. Don’t cause any trouble in the next few days.” ”
Gu Qingtang raised his arms flatly, opened the gauze under the bright moon, and said with a wry smile: “How dare I get into trouble? My master drugged me.”
Ming Yue and Liu Yun’er looked at each other for a moment, and Liu Yun’er exclaimed in shock: “Seven days to lock the soul away?”
Gu Qingtang nodded and said: “That’s why I came to you tonight to ask about the origin of this medicine.”
Ming Yue was silent for a moment, and glanced at Gu Qingtang worriedly, “This medicine initially causes attacks once every seven days. Later, the attacks become more frequent. You have to take it every day to relieve the pain like thousands of ants gnawing at the bones.” .”
The smile on Gu Qingtang’s face froze, “What if I no longer take this medicine?”
Liu Yun’er sighed: “Since I’ve given you the medicine, how can I not force you to continue taking it? In the past, there were a few tough guys who refused to take it, but in the end, they still couldn’t survive the pain of the medicine. , some begged the prince for mercy, and some couldn’t bear it anymore and finally committed suicide.”
“Do you know the prescription for this medicine?” Gu Qingtang asked.
Ming Yue shook her head, “I only know that the key medicine is a beautiful flower that looks very similar to a poppy. You saw it in the palace many years ago.”
“It’s okay, maybe I can self-extract the properties of this medicine.” Gu Qingtang suddenly realized, and a smile gradually appeared from the corner of his mouth, “Sister Mingyue, help me prepare some strong wine these days. Come get it later, it’s best to get drunk in just a few mouthfuls.”
Ming Yue was stunned for a moment, “Okay, but you have to do what you can. If you can’t solve it, just let it go for now. I’ll go read the medical books. Maybe I can find other ways to help you.”
“Okay.” Gu Qingtang glanced at the wound medicine in her hand, blinked and smiled: “Sister Mingyue, please apply this medicine gently in a while, it will hurt…”
Ming Yue glared at her, “I was just about to say that your backhand medicine skills have improved. You have applied medicine to every injury. If you are afraid of pain, just apply it yourself.”
Gu Qingtang smiled knowingly: “How can I apply it to all the wounds?”
Liu Yun’er heard the deep meaning in these words, “It turns out that someone helped me give the medicine. Tell me! Did you meet a new beauty?”
Gu Qingtang smiled thoughtfully: “How could it be the new beauty? She is my little princess. It’s strange to say that when she came back this time, the way she looked at me and what she said to me was indeed a bit different from usual It’s different… When she helped me apply the medicine, she could actually easily discover my daughter’s body… Huh? The more I think about it, the weirder it gets…”
With a chill in his heart, Gu Qingtang suddenly thought of a possibility – could she have discovered her daughter’s body?
Liu Yun’er thought for a while, frowned and reminded: “Maybe someone has discovered your true identity, Qingtang, you’d better test this matter. If you let the little princess know that you are a woman at this time, , it will definitely affect the prince, so don’t cause another big disaster!”
Gu Qingtang said seriously: “Well, I know what to do…it hurts…Sister Mingyue…be gentle…be gentle…”
Ming Yue applied the medicine on the wound and said, “Be gentle, I’m afraid you won’t have a long memory.”
“Sister Mingyue… I’m growing! Isn’t it okay to grow?”
As Gu Qingtang cried out in pain, Mingyue helped her wrap up her wound and put her clothes neatly on, “Go back early. I will prepare the wine you asked for tomorrow. You can come and get it at any time.” OK.”
“Yeah!”
Liu Yun’er couldn’t help but tell her, “Be careful with everything these days.”
“Okay!”
Gu Qingtang nodded again, “Then I’ll go back.”
“Take care…”
Liu Yun’er and Mingyue watched her go down the small pavilion, lowered their heads and slipped out of the back door. They looked at each other worriedly and let out a sigh.
Three moments later, the back door of the Prince Consort’s Mansion was carefully pushed open by Gu Qingtang.
“Creak…”
Perhaps it was late at night and the guards on duty began to take a nap, so it was so quiet.
She always felt that something was weird, but she couldn’t put it in words. She could only speed up her pace and walked straight to the study.
Xiao Wu was missing at the door, and the study door was also ajar.
Gu Qingtang couldn’t help but muttered, “This Xiao Wu is really unreliable. He went to the toilet in the middle of the night and didn’t close the study door. Isn’t it obvious that no one was inside?”
“I will teach you a lesson when I wake up tomorrow, Xiao Wu!” She yawned, walked into the study, turned around and closed the door.
“Which beauty did your consort sneak out in the middle of the night to see?”
Familiar voice, familiar breath…
Gu Qingtang felt a cold sweat break out, and turned around with a smile. Yin Ning had already lit up the lamp in the room.
“Aning, why are you here? Ha…hehe…”
Yin Ning sat at the desk and smiled coldly, “You haven’t answered me yet.”
Gu Qingtang laughed and said: “I… I woke up and found that Xiao Wu was missing, so I went out to look for him…”
“Oh, Xiao Wu failed in his duty to serve the prince today and has been severely punished by me. I’m afraid you won’t be able to find him in the past few days…” After saying that, Yin Ning stood up and walked straight towards Gu Qingtang, “Gu Qingtang, are you still not going to tell the truth?”
Gu Qingtang knew that he was in trouble today, so he smiled bitterly and said: “Aning, what do you want to hear?”
Yin Ning approached her, her eyes slightly red, and she asked in a trembling voice: “Who is my consort Gu Qingtang?”
