Chapter 60 Playing dumb

"Okay." Gu Zhian tied the last knot, stood up and stepped away. He took the wet cloth handed by Lang Qiao and wiped his hands. He never looked at the man on the couch again and simply said: "Change the medicine once a day.

Don’t touch the wound with water for seven days. I wish you a speedy recovery. I have something else to do, so I’ll take the first step.”

This time Ye Canglan didn't stop her, she just stared at the girl's back silently until she disappeared.

The shadow guard stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, do you want to send someone to follow?"

Ye Canglan shook his head, "No need. Before I eradicate these cancers, this matter must not be made public. Don't do unnecessary things and cause her trouble."

Wutong Lane

Chu Yuanyan wandered around Prince Rong's Mansion but failed to find the owner of the silhouette, so he simply returned to the Chu Mansion on Wutong Lane. As soon as he sat down by the window of the small attic, he couldn't wait to open the window and look out into the alley.

Across the street, in the courtyard of Gu's family on Qingbai Lane.

The small courtyard was still quiet, and the three masters and servants seemed not to have returned yet.

At this time, Lu Ziqi walked in with a medicine bowl. Seeing his master dazed at the window again, he quickly put down the bowl and leaned his head over, "Master, what on earth are you looking at? Let me take a look too!"

Chu Yuanyan pushed Lu Ziqi away and closed the window with his backhand, "I'm not looking at anything, let's take a breath."

Lu Ziqi didn't believe it. He suspected that the master was peeking at the Gu family across the street. Otherwise, how could the master know that there was such a weapon in the boudoir where the girl lived.

But for the sake of his master's face, he decided to pretend to be ignorant.

Chu Yuanyan drank the medicine in the bowl in one gulp and put the bowl down, "What's the news from the Chu family?"

Lu Ziqi suppressed his joking expression and returned to his usual seriousness, "The Yongyi Hou Mansion has been in a state of flux these past few days. After the news of Chu Yuanjiang being escorted back to Beijing reached the Hou Mansion, the Marquis entered the palace on the same day. It's a pity that

Your Majesty didn't see him, and didn't even say a word to him. Madam Hou was so anxious that she fainted several times. That night, she spent a lot of money to bribe the prison head of the Penal Department Prison and went into the dungeon to meet Chu Yuanjiang."

Chu Yuanyan raised his eyebrows, "Oh? What did you say?"

Lu Ziqi smiled, thinking that the mother and son would never know until they died that there were people from them in the Ministry of Punishment, and every word they said would be passed on word for word.

"Mrs. Hou saw that her precious son had become like that, and she cried so much that she almost died." Lu Ziqi felt a little regretful, why he didn't die. "Mrs. Hou promised Chu Yuanjiang that she would definitely rescue him.

If there is something, as long as it is presented to the emperor, the emperor will definitely take action to save him."

Chu Yuanyan raised his eyebrows, "Can you tell me what it is?"

Lu Ziqi shook his head, "I didn't say it clearly. According to the person who conveyed the message, Mrs. Hou looked a little weird when she mentioned this matter. I thought it was something unusual."

Chu Yuanyan thought of his stepmother who was used to making dramas. That woman was very scheming and she might have something extraordinary in her hands.

"Keep a close eye on it. I'm curious about what is in her hand."

Lu Ziqi was also curious and had already sent people to keep an eye on it. As long as the woman took out the things, they would take action immediately.

The two chatted about the situation in the court for a while. It wasn't until Doctor Cui's shouts came from downstairs that Lu Ziqi went downstairs with an empty bowl. Chu Yuanyan opened the window again, and his eyes naturally glanced towards the Gu family's small courtyard, and they happened to see it.

Three figures walked into the courtyard.

As soon as Gu Zhian entered the courtyard, he saw an arrow nailed to the open ground in the courtyard. There seemed to be something stuck under the arrow. When he took a closer look, he found that it was a piece of paper with a few words written on it.
