Gu Yisheng woke up from a long dream and stared at the high roof beams in a daze.

so close……

I almost fell into someone else's scheme again.

The surroundings were quiet, the curtains were purple, and a beaded curtain hung next to the gauze curtain - it was made of fine East beads woven into knots. The beads were round and jade-like, and even shone with gentleness and softness under the sunlight.

The light, the rustling autumn wind blowing in from the distance through the slightly opened window cracks, blew the bead curtains and emitted the elegant sound like a guzheng.

The pillows rolled up in Yuehua satin are fluffy and soft, the cotton quilts woven with embroidered flowers are very warm, and the fragrance of flowers fills the room.

Soothing jasmine flowers were placed in front of the bed and behind the window, exuding a fresh fragrance, and the green branches showed full of vitality.

Although autumn is getting darker, there is still a strong feeling of spring.

The room is warm and reassuring at the same time.

The musical instruments and zithers playing quietly outside the bead curtain were spotless, and the flowers and trees were fully decorated. The few little girls standing guard here were quietly doing their needlework and did not dare to disturb Gu Yisheng.

It seems very polite.

Gu Yisheng continued to sleep.

The whole house was filled with peace of mind.

The man who personally arranged the house in this way was sitting alone in front of the case.

He was wearing a pair of red pajamas, and the heavy dark blue under his peach-blossom eyes was a testimony that he had been waiting all night last night. A white jade hairpin casually pulled up his hair, and he held the pen vigorously, as if he was trying his best to restrain the pain.

He wrote down the notes about participating in the Chai Mansion one stroke at a time, but he was still trembling slightly and couldn't write well.

The thick ink dripped on the memorial but could not be melted away. He frowned, feeling helpless and irritated, but still did not put down the pen and continued to write the memorial.

"Sir, the old injury has recurred?"

Yuan Shen held the medicine bowl and urged Fu Zhiyan to drink the medicine.

"It doesn't matter."

Fu Zhiyan looked at Yuan She gently and signaled him to put down the medicine and leave.

"By the way, go see Qiao'an and ask her if the third lady is okay? Then send her the bottle of jade dew rose fragrance."

Yuan She curled her lips in dissatisfaction, replied "Yes, sir" and left.

Why did the young master go through so much suffering for a ruthless daughter who was destined to cling to the powerful and marry someone else?

There were huge doubts in his little head, and the words "I don't understand" floated all over his body, but he still did as he was told.

Fu Zhiyan's study room is still so neat and tidy, with a neatly arranged book wall behind it that has a unique style, purple smoke from the incense burner on the table, and a wide window opposite to a plum tree.

He turned his right hand over, and his wrist was covered in thick blue and black.

Thick blue and black...

He couldn't help but clenched his fists.

My thoughts suddenly returned to the night after the Gunpowder Plot...

He galloped his horse and whip, eager to find the King of Lu who happened to return to Beijing to report on his duties.

That bloody night hurt everyone in the Gu family.

His third wife, Asheng, is still waiting for him.

When he was approaching Prince Lu's Mansion, he almost fell off his horse due to the scars all over his body. Fortunately, they were just skin injuries with only some bleeding, which did not hinder him much except that his movements became a little slower.

"His Royal Highness the King of Lu is not here, Mr. Fu, please come back." The servants in the house were neither salty nor indifferent to him. Like their master, they could not see the joy, anger, sorrow, and what was in their hearts.

At this moment, a sharp voice came - "It is not false to say that His Royal Highness, King Lu, is not free, but His Highness is so rich and noble that he does not have the time to deal with you, who is so arrogant but pitiful and asking for trouble."

people."

The King of Lu would not see him easily - after all, no one wanted to get involved with the guilty minister who was about to be punished.

And this person was obviously here to add insult to injury, with whom he had a grudge - Guo Zhi, the Guanglu doctor.

Of course, Fu Zhiyan would not give in to this person, and he still repeated his request straightly, as if there was not a Guanglu doctor named Guo Zhi standing next to him.

"A worm can shake a tree, a mantis' arm can act like a chariot, and one cannot overestimate one's own capabilities."

As soon as an official sedan stopped beside him, the noble cloud boots bent his legs straight, and he staggered and knelt on the ground.

"Meet His Highness the King of Lu? Then go through me first."

The person on the sedan walked down slowly and slowly, a dangerous and cunning smile on his thin lips.

"Mozhi, Mozhi, tell me, is it fate that manipulates people?"

Guo Zhi kicked Fu Zhiyan hard on the back, leaving dirty footprints on his pure and clean clothes.

Fu Zhiyan just grunted and didn't react at all, letting him bully him.

"Back then, you were just a commoner, but you rose to prominence just because you saved the life of the scourge of the Gu family. You were indeed powerful, talented, and clever. All the doctors from the Imperial College were full of praise for you... But,

What’s the use then?”

Guo Zhi gradually moved his foot to Fu Zhiyan's right wrist, using his strength as if he was crushing a dead branch.

"Chen Siye, once Dr. Hu died, you became the dirt in this land. Although you are still favored by Her Highness the Queen, didn't you end up without an official position and ended up being that little girl's wife in vain?"

His eyes were full of sarcasm, just like frost and hail in autumn, unwilling to stop until it destroys people to death.

"Don't forget, the death of the two ladies is inseparable from you."

Guo Zhi exerted force, but Fu Zhiyan remained silent.

"And I, because of my father, am naturally at the top of the list. Even if I don't rely on my own talents, no one dares to talk about me. And what if you are rich in knowledge and talented?

So what if you have the ambition to serve the country? For you, all this is just a dream."

Guo Zhi rubbed Fu Zhiyan's face with the tip of his shoe and mocked: "What a pretty boy, no wonder Her Royal Highness the Queen likes it."

Fu Zhiyan didn't react.

"What a coward. He didn't even say a word. Why, do you still have any illusions about saving your little lover?"

Fu Zhiyan only moved his body slightly to the side and said, "Those who are clean will be clean by themselves. There is no need to say more."

Guo Zhi, however, refused to give up. He picked up the riding whip and shook it, seeming to recall some of the past, and said with a sinister smile: "You must have forgotten, right? You beat me on the racecourse back then, and I was so lucky."

I’ve been whipped three times!”

I remember that when they were in the Imperial College, Guo Zhi always liked to make jokes and say uncultured things, so Fu Zhiyan never liked to socialize with him.

This Guo Zhi is not a kind-hearted person. He tends to follow the trend of others when he is superior, and would like to step on the ground when he is subordinate.

At that polo match at the racecourse when he was young, Guo Zhi threw a bag of broken silver to Fu Zhiyan and said with a smile: "I'll give you money to buy some clothes. Don't wear other people's clothes anymore. But, in return, you have to let me win."

.”

Of course Fu Zhiyan threw the money back and did not agree.

However, that time, Guo Zhi fell off his horse because of his poor skills and was accidentally whipped three times by Fu Zhiyan's group. From then on, he attributed all this humiliation and hatred to Fu Zhiyan and vowed to take revenge.

It's all in the past.

Fu Zhiyan ignored him and continued to kowtow to the palace gate and said loudly: "Your Majesty Fu Zhiyan, I sincerely ask His Highness Prince Lu to summon you!"
