Chapter 25 Playing
Seeing that Mrs. Yang was sleeping peacefully, Gu Yunyao quietly left the courtyard and went to the second lady's residence.
The lights were dim, and the Second Lady's courtyard was also quiet.
Suddenly hearing the sound of footsteps, Gu Yunyao retreated behind a tree and saw two little maids walking together. One of them was holding a medicine bowl in her hand.
When Gu Yunyao smelled it, um, it was a very nourishing medicine.
"This time, Madam was so angry that she didn't even eat dinner."
"Who says it's not the case? How has our wife ever suffered such a big loss?"
"I heard that the old lady scolded me so much that I even dropped my tea cup."
The door curtain in the room was raised, and Granny Tian stood on the steps: "What are you muttering about? Come on, Madam is waiting for the medicine!"
The little maid quickly shut her mouth and quickened her pace.
Gu Yunyao sneered secretly, "You haven't had dinner? This bowl of nourishing medicine is enough for three dinners."
It's easy to say that you can't eat, but I'll make you unable to eat every day from now on.
However, the second lady was reprimanded by the old lady? She also threw a cup, isn’t it?
Gu Yunyao felt that there must be something fishy in it.
She quietly walked around to the back window.
Aunt Tian just handed the medicine bowl to the second lady.
"Has the news spread?" asked the second lady.
"Go back to Madam, it's time to leave." Aunt Tian couldn't bear it, "It's just that I have wronged you."
The second lady drank the medicine in one gulp and said with a smile: "Humph, the old lady wants to be a good person, how can she control me?
Didn't she say that? It's hard for Gu Yunyao to believe me anymore, and she can't use any clichés. Isn't that the case today?
No information was coaxed out, and I had to pay for a few bolts of satin."
"The old lady has never loved the second young lady in these years. How can the second young lady believe her so easily?"
"I will be the evil one, and she will be the kind grandmother, and I will give her some things to win her over. Can Gu Yunyao be fooled? Of course, I have to provide the things to win over."
Aunt Tian felt sorry for her: "But this is so unfair to you."
"Our old lady, apart from her precious son, who does she care about?" The second lady pressed her lower abdomen with her hand, "It's a pity that I couldn't give birth to a grandson, otherwise..."
"Madam, don't worry, the second master will be back soon, everything will be fine."
The second lady closed her eyes: "I hope so. You will send someone to the city gate in the next two days. If Taoist Master Lingxu arrives, I will know the news immediately."
"yes."
The second lady waved her hands, and Granny Tian was about to retreat.
The second lady asked again: "By the way, have you sent the newly purchased balm to Wen'er?"
"Back to Madam, I handed it over to the eldest lady with my own hands, don't worry!
That's a new fragrance from Hongxiu Tianxiang House, and there's not much of it in total. It will definitely be great if you use it."
"That's good. It's really strange. What's going on with this prince? It smells so strange that it hurts Wen'er..."
The second lady lowered her voice: "By the way, have the people who went to inquire near Prince Qin's Mansion come back?
How on earth did that cheap girl Gu Yunyao get involved with King Qin?"
"I haven't come back yet. Madam, you know that Prince Qin's Mansion is always like an iron barrel, and it's hard to find out the news.
Yi Laonu, what does it matter? The King of Qin always does not follow the rules and only looks at his mood, which is hard for people to figure out. If the King of Qin really cares about her, how can he still send something in front of the Duke's wife? "
"It makes sense," the second lady pondered for a while, "but we still can't be careless. I have worked hard for many years. This general's mansion must be ours. We can't make any mistakes with this cheap girl Gu Yunyao."
Aunt Tian added: "Madam, you should hurry up. I heard that the palace's rewards are being prepared. If one day, the second lady gets a reward, I'm afraid..."
The second lady's eyes suddenly became sinister again: "You are right, I have been so busy these past two days that I almost forgot about it."
"This matter still has to fall on Taoist Master Lingxu, so we must pay close attention to it."
"yes."
Gu Yunyao quietly retreated to the courtyard, probably knowing something in her mind.
She said that even if the old lady and the second lady had a falling out, it would be because of interests, not because of their mother and daughter.
It was indeed a show.
I thought of having a red face and a dark face to coax her, an "inexperienced" girl.
Hehe, it’s not certain who lied to whom.
But why do they bother with this?
Acting with others is not an easy job.
Thinking back carefully, could it be because it was the Golden Toad Water Dividing Chart she mentioned last time?
She said she had a treasure map first, and then took out a glass vase and arranged flowers behind it. Therefore, they thought she really knew some secret.
If that's the case, you're welcome.
Gu Yunyao returned to the courtyard and slept comfortably. She finally had a good sleep that night.
Shen Munan followed Gu Yunyao all the way back to the courtyard, watching her thinking and laughing, not knowing what she was planning.
Just as he was about to go in and ask her when the medicine would be given, he saw Gu Yunyao lying down and sleeping.
Falling asleep now?!
Shen Munan was secretly angry, but she could still sleep! How could she sleep with so much going on every day?
Qiu Feng squinted his eyes and said, "Master, Miss Gu Er is really big-hearted."
Shen Munan glanced at him: "What should I say?"
"Prince Lu has just been carried home, and she didn't even think of finding a way to have a look. I believe her marriage will be snatched away by that weak young lady sooner or later."
A smile appeared on Shen Munan's face: "Qiu Feng, I noticed that you have become smarter."
"Really?"
"Really, and my eyesight has improved too."
"Thank you, Master."
"Well," Shen Munan turned and left, "You don't have to sleep tonight. Look at the stars and count how many there are."
Qiu Feng: "!!"
Lu Chuanlin was carried back to the Duke's Mansion. Both of his legs were almost broken. The Duke's wife gave him medicine while crying and feeling distressed.
"Mother, have you done that?"
"It's done, don't worry," the Duke's wife nodded, "Besides, the prince has returned to the East Palace."
Lu Chuanlin breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
As soon as I said this, the housekeeper came in in a hurry, his expression not very good.
"What happened?"
"Go back to Madam, Crown Prince, Prince Qin's Mansion..."
"What happened to Prince Qin's Mansion?" Lu Chuanlin couldn't help shouting angrily.
Now when he mentioned Prince Qin's Mansion, his whole body ached.
Before the housekeeper had time to say anything, someone outside said coldly: "Prince Lu is so angry. Why did Prince Qin's Palace offend you?"
Lu Chuanlin's breath caught in his throat.
The person outside the door stepped into the house, his posture straight and cold.
The Duke's wife recognized that this was a guard in front of the mansion today, who seemed to be calling Chunni.
"Come here, serve tea."
Chunni looked at Lu Chuanlin: "Prince Lu, I am sending a message on the order of the prince. The prince has just woken up and feels that your apology is enough, so he lets you go home."
Lu Chuanlin's heart slowly lifted.
"But now the prince has fainted again, so you still have to go."
Lu Chuanlin's eyesight went dark, and just as he was about to faint, he felt pain all over his body.
The Duke and his wife were shocked: "How can this be so? My son..."
"The prince has lost half his life, and his life has been in danger several times. Madam, can it be said that the prince is no more valuable than the prince?"
The Duke's wife choked and went back.
"However," Chunni changed the subject.
"Your Majesty is merciful. He said it before he fainted. This is more revealing. I am also worried that the prince is not in good health, so..."
A little hope ignited in the heart of the Duke's wife again.
