The next day, Gu Qingyuan got on the carriage with her sisters in the mansion.
Originally, she didn't want to go to Qinglong Temple to offer incense and have fun as Qin Lu made an appointment. She would have to stay in the temple for one night.
The medicinal properties of her body have not yet been removed. In the Qin family's backyard, once the gate is closed, be careful as no one will notice.
The scenery along the way to Qinglong Temple is beautiful, and the murmuring streams in the mountains make people feel relaxed and happy.
It was good to have several little girls together. Instead of taking a soft sedan to go up the mountain, they climbed up by themselves.
By the time we reached the top of the mountain, we were all dripping with sweat. We even stopped several times to drink water and rest.
Before they arrived at Qinglong Temple, there was a pavilion. When they arrived at the pavilion, they did not expect that people were already inside.
"I've met the crown prince."
The girls covered their faces with handkerchiefs, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and straightened their scattered hair.
Gu Qingyuan was a little surprised. She didn't expect Prince Jing to be here too.
Next to him was Pei Jinting, still wearing the clothes of a bodyguard.
She followed the girls to salute Prince Jing.
Prince Jing's eyes fell on her and said,
"Mrs. Gu, do you want to enjoy the scenery together?"
He had a smile on his face and was wearing a purple round-collared robe with wide sleeves and wide sleeves. The placket was open to the chest, revealing the middle coat underneath, and he wore a white jade lotus crown on his head.
His face was as white as jade and his lips were like beads.
The girls from the Qin family blushed slightly as they watched.
Gu Qingyuan silently averted her eyes and took a step back, leaving the girls of the Qin family to surround Prince Jing.
There was another person who did the same action as Gu Qingyuan.
That was Qin Lu. She immediately saw Guard Pei standing behind Prince Jing.
These days, whenever she closes her eyes, the image of Guard Pei emerges uncontrollably in her mind.
She pinched the handkerchief, her palms were slightly sweaty, took a step back, and slowly retreated towards Guard Pei.
In order not to attract attention, when she saw Gu Qingyuan also retreating, she immediately stepped forward and hugged Gu Qingyuan's arm, speaking in a friendly tone.
"Sister Ayuan, I saw that you didn't look very good a few days ago. Are you okay?"
Her voice was neither high nor low, warm and soft, and fell just right in Pei Jinting's ears.
She is well-behaved, well-born, and can speak well. She is the most popular girl in the Qin family.
With such a posture, no man would not take a high look.
Gu Qingyuan really couldn't stand Qin Lu's enthusiasm. She looked calmly, lowered her eyes, and pulled out her arm without moving.
"Thank you for your concern, cousin. It's getting better now."
She stepped back slightly, left Qin Lu's side, and stood by the fence of the pavilion.
The smile on Qin Lu's face froze slightly, and she also followed to the fence, leaning on it and looking into the distance.
"The scenery here is really good, and people can feel better looking at it."
The hand on the railing slowly tightened, and he tilted his head and smiled at Gu Qingyuan.
It was obviously a smile, but it felt a little gloomy in Gu Qingyuan's eyes.
I've checked over and over again about the medicine in her body, but I have no clue.
Just now I saw Qin Lu's smiling face, and suddenly I remembered the scene when she was toasting on the Qin family's reunion night.
That day, she was just like before, with a smile on her face, and asked the maid behind her to help her pour the wine...
maid.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with Qin Lu's posture, but after the nasty exchange of words in the garden, she gradually became suspicious, always feeling that Qin Lu seemed to be targeting her.
The seeds of doubt have turned into reminders.
Just as she was carefully recalling the appearance of the maid who served her wine, Qin Lu beside her suddenly let out a soft "yeah", covered her arms and called,
"I feel like I've been stung by a wild bee."
With this exclamation, the girls from the Qin family reluctantly gathered around Prince Jing.
Sure enough, I saw a huge swelling on her wrist.
Although there was a swelling in her hand, Qin Lu's skin was white and her wrists were slender. She glanced at Guard Pei out of the corner of her eye, waiting for any movement over there.
But Guard Pei didn't seem to notice, his eyes were elsewhere, and she was a little disappointed.
Looking in the direction of his gaze, it seemed to be the direction of the Gu family's cousin.
She felt a little disdainful.
Cousin from the Gu family is a peaceful woman, only the old widower would want her to be like this.
The pavilion was not big, but Prince Jing and a group of guards gathered around it. Together with everyone from the Qin family, the pavilion was immediately packed to the brim.
Seeing that Pei Jinting didn't respond at all, Qin Lu felt a little anxious, as if she suddenly remembered something, and raised her voice,
"Sister Ayuan, have you brought some cooling ointment?"
As she spoke, she crossed the crowd and took a few steps forward. She might as well not be holding the hem of her skirt with her hands. She stumbled over her left foot and her right foot. Her center of gravity was unstable and she threw herself forward.
The direction she rushed towards was exactly the direction of Gu Qingyuan.
Gu Qingyuan was confused. She didn't know whether she should run away or reach out to catch her.
If you can't catch it, you will accidentally roll over the fence behind you, and there will be a long steep slope below.
Thinking of the situation when she was taking traditional Chinese medicine, Gu Qingyuan didn't want to take it.
Pei Jinting, who seemed idle and indifferent, was actually focused entirely on Gu Qingyuan.
Seeing this situation, his expression changed drastically, and he moved as fast as lightning, grabbing Gu Qingyuan's hand and pulling her towards him.
Gu Qingyuan felt two forces exerted on her body at the same time.
One came from Pei Jinting, and the other came from Qin Lu who rushed towards her.
Qin Lu held on to the hem of Gu Qingyuan's clothes.
With a "stab" sound, she only caught a scrap of cloth. Without a helping hand, she hit the guardrail of the pavilion hard, causing her eyes to go black for a while.
What was even more frightening was that the wood of the fence was in disrepair due to exposure to weather, weather, and weather. When she hit her like this, two pillars broke and slid across her cheek, leaving blood on her face.
All this may seem like a long time, but in fact it only takes a few breaths.
Everyone was stunned for a moment before realizing that something had happened.
"How could this be?"
There was a younger girl whose eyes were wide-eyed and could not believe it.
It was Qin Lu who proposed to come to Qinglong Temple to offer incense. Everyone was happy along the way, but why did she, the sponsor, get into trouble in the end?
If we go back and the family starts to argue, wouldn't each of them be the culprit of pushing others into the water?
The timid girl was so frightened that she couldn't recover for a long time, thinking about how to shirk responsibility.
Gu Qingyuan took a deep breath and glanced at Pei Jinting,
"Save people."
If something really happened, although no one else is to blame, it is not beautiful after all.
What's more, she wanted to rescue Qin Lu and ask how she got the harmful medicine.
Maybe he can find out the truth about how Qin was set up back then.
Prince Jing stood aside. When Qin Lu pounced on Gu Qingyuan, he raised his sleeves to cover his face. He said, "It's such a sin for a girl as beautiful as a flower to fall on her face."
However, he was still a little confused.
Pei Xiaosan, who clearly had a new love, was so frightened that his expression changed drastically, and he saw Madam Gu pulling him over without caring.
Little Pei Zi hides his dirty thoughts really deeply.
Prince Jing thought bitterly.
Less than half an hour later, the guards of Prince Jing's Mansion rescued Qin Lu, who had fainted, from the broken fence.
