Chapter 53: Mystery under the Tree

Shen Munan felt that if he didn't send Gu Yunyao away, he would be angry to death.

As soon as I touched my chest, I felt that I couldn't kill him.

He had no choice but to close his eyes and wave his hands, asking Chunni to send Gu Yunyao away quickly.

When Gu Yunyao went outside the palace, rode on the little red horse, and galloped in the morning breeze, she felt like she had been reborn.

Another narrow escape from death.

After sending her to the back door of the general's mansion, Chunni took the little red horse and hurried back to the palace.

Shen Munan took a while to catch his breath.

Doctor Hu quickly stepped forward to check his pulse and check the injury, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, the flower poison has indeed been cured, and the Kuva poison is also showing signs of improvement. That lady did not lie."

Shen Munan nodded: "Well, I feel it too."

Doctor Hu praised: "It's really amazing. I have been studying medicine for many years and I think I have some abilities. I can only suppress the prince's poison, but she can actually make the injury better. I really admire her."

Shen Munan's eyes were deep, yes, it was indeed strange, why did the second young lady of the Gu family have such good medical skills?

Could it be that it really has something to do with her maternal grandfather’s family?

Doctor Hu went down to prescribe medicine, and Chunni stepped forward and whispered back: "Your Majesty, just now news came from the palace that the Duke's wife came into the palace last night and paid homage to Concubine Yun."

Shen Munan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is it related to the Gu family?"

"Exactly."

"It seems that the Duke's Palace will not give up on this marriage," Shen Munan said thoughtfully, "If Concubine Yun comes forward, it will be even more difficult for her to break off the engagement."

"Are the rewards from the palace coming soon?" he asked suddenly.

Chunni was startled and replied: "Just in these few days."

Gu Yunyao was going to be named the county lord, and the Duke's government would definitely not be happy. After all, an orphan with no father and stupid mother was much easier to handle than a county lord.

Shen Munan seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "I am determined to do the unpleasant things in the Duke's palace. Prepare the car and enter the palace."

Chunni lowered her eyes: "Yes."

But I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, Your Majesty, do you simply not want to make the Duke's Palace happy, or do you want Miss Gu Er to break off the engagement smoothly?

Gu Yunyao quietly returned to the courtyard, walked to the flower tree, and stopped.

Suddenly, I remembered that Yang was standing under the tree yesterday and kept saying "the flowers are wrong" and "the tree is wrong" over and over again. Maybe, she was not confused, she was aware of something.

Gu Yunyao took a deep breath, calmed down, relaxed her consciousness, and her facial features became clear.

My sense of smell instantly became much more sensitive, and wisps of sweet fragrance lingered on the tip of my nose.

Sure enough it's not right.

Gu Yunyao didn't bother to rest, so she took out her dagger and searched around the tree.

After searching around, I found two jars buried in two places under the roots of the tree.

There are several holes in the lid of the jar, and the roots penetrate deep into the jar.

A sweet fragrance hits my nose.

It turned out to be a thick juice extracted from that flower.

Gu Yunyao's eyes were cold, what a delicate thought!

I took out the jar and inspected it carefully. There was nothing wrong with it. I was relieved.

Unknowingly, I was covered in sweat, and the cool breeze gave me goosebumps all over my body.

Gu Yunyao felt deeply this time that the backyard of this deep house was really full of traps, which could kill people every time.

If you are alone here, you need to be careful and cautious every step of the way.

She was not in a hurry to get rid of the flower juice and temporarily put it into the Chaos Ring. She cleaned the yard and washed her hands before entering the house.

Yang was still asleep, and Gu Yunyao suddenly thought that when she checked the cause of Yang's illness before, she felt that missing her husband accounted for the majority.

But now it seems that may not be the case.

Mr. Yang may have been harmed by this flower juice. If he used a little bit every day, it would inevitably lead to confusion in his thinking over time.

Gu Yunyao sat silently for a while, then returned to her room and meditated on the couch by the window.

When it was breakfast time, Hui'er came again to deliver food.

Gu Yunyaoruo asked accidentally: "Hui'er, were yesterday's snacks also made in the small kitchen in the old lady's courtyard?"

"Well, no, the small kitchen usually just boils some soup and makes some dishes. Complex snacks like that are still made by the big kitchen."

A hint of pride flashed in Hui'er's eyes: "If Second Miss likes it, I will send you some more later."

"Okay," Gu Yunyao agreed.

Just after breakfast, Hui'er came again.

"Second Miss, the old lady asks you to go to the front hall."

"Why? Who is coming again?"

"She is the Duke's wife."

It's that woman again.

Gu Yunyao was annoyed just thinking about it, but if she wanted to break off the engagement, she still had to meet him.

She thought about it for a while and decided that she should act a little crazy and make the Duke's government back down. If they didn't back down yet, then they had a big conspiracy.

From the current point of view, the most important thing is to know yourself and the enemy, and figure out what they want to do, and you can also prescribe the right medicine.

After sending Hui'er away, she found something in the Chaos Ring and stuffed it into her sleeve.

Anyway, she was not in a hurry. She took a short detour to the garden and saw from a distance that the flowers were beginning to wither.

Gu Yunyao was about to go over and take a look when she suddenly saw a piece of skirt behind a flower tree not far away.

She stopped and listened.

It's Gu Qingwen.

"Brother Chuanlin, let's... let's forget it! Wen'er doesn't have this blessing and is destined to miss you."

"Wen'er, what are you talking about? My destiny is you. Apart from you, there will be no other person."

Lu Chuanlin's voice was as gentle as water and full of affection.

Gu Yunyao secretly took a breath, this matter is such a big deal, isn't this a good opportunity to come to your door?

She approached quietly and listened carefully.

"But the Duke's wife is here today to explain to my grandmother that you and your second sister should continue your engagement." Gu Qingwen looked pitiful, "I don't want to embarrass you...Brother Chuanlin, please forget about me."

"Wen'er, believe me, everything is a temporary solution. When I marry her, I will marry you as an equal wife, with the same sedan chair and the same scenery.

When I enter the house, everything will be decided by me, and I will leave everything to you, Wen'er, do you understand what I am thinking?"

Gu Yunyao just wanted to applaud, this man really refreshed her new understanding of "shameless".

The two of them stayed together for a while, before Gu Qingwen left first.

Gu Yunyao rolled her eyes, returned to the Moon Gate, and walked forward slowly.

Sure enough, she heard someone calling her from behind.

"Yun Yao."

This cry was gentle and graceful.

It made Gu Yunyao's heart tremble.

Looking back, he saw Lu Chuanlin wearing a moon-white brocade robe, a jade sachet hanging on his waist, a jade crown on his head, fair complexion, and a smile on his face.

Gu Yunyao was in a trance for a moment.

If she hadn't really heard it just now, she would have really suspected that she was dreaming.

This man can still look at her with such a smile and tenderness on his face. He is really a master.

"What's wrong with you?" Gu Yunyao asked.

Lu Chuanlin didn't care about her attitude at all, and smiled gently: "Yunyao, are you still angry with me?"

Gu Yunyao: "??"

"I know that our marriage has made you endure a lot.

The marriage contract was made by our parents, but now your father is missing and your mother is... the second wife of the General's Mansion is also in charge of the back house, which inevitably makes you feel that you are not worthy of me now."
