Chapter 127 The City That Never Sleeps

After all, God was kind and the heavy rain stopped early the next morning.

Gu Yu asked Lan Lan to apply it on her eyes again, and she could see things more clearly.

Jun Xian came to see her off, and Gu Yu asked, "Are the soldiers led by the prince also hiding in the water bandit village?"

After Junze arrived in Jiangnan, he separated from the rest of the army, and Gu Yu never heard from those soldiers again.

Jun Xian said: "The water bandit village stretches for hundreds of miles on the canal, and I can still afford to raise his young soldiers."

Gu Yudao: "There are many water bandits in Water Bandit Village, and they must also be soldiers of the Jun family."

After spending two days in the Water Bandits Village, I found that the Water Bandits were very orderly and could not do this without some training.

Jun Xian smiled and said: "Sure enough, a smart mind is good. Even if you are blind, you can still see through so many things. Yes, I broke with my family back then and took away some of the Jun family's soldiers."

Gu Yu said: "The eyes are blind but the heart is not blind."

Then she added: "I'm not blind, and I'll be fine soon."

Jun Xian laughed: "You are such an interesting person."

Gu Yu walked towards the river with a bamboo stick, secretly thinking that the Jun family had hidden their shame earlier than she thought.

When they arrived at the river, Gu Yu said to Jun Xian: "If the Xiao family's money is sent here, I would trouble Uncle Shi to send it to a part of Tongning County."

Tongning County has the pedantic Magistrate Su, so he will not switch sides to Prince An.

I don’t know what happened to Pingsha and Mr. Liu.

Jun Xian said: "Okay, is there anything else you want to explain?"

Gu Yu shook his head. All that was left was to do his best and obey fate.

Jun Xian clasped his fists at her and said, "My nephew is leaving, please take care of yourself!"

Gu Yu pounded the bamboo stick and got on the boat, and returned the favor: "Thank you, Uncle Shi, for seeing me off."

After rowing the boat on the river, she was going to the city that never sleeps. She couldn't take anyone with her, and she couldn't attract attention with her three-edged sword.

She is just a blind person from out of town, who came to visit the city that never sleeps because she admires its splendor.

Halfway through the canal, Gu Yu changed boats three times and landed just before sunset.

With his simple disguise and appearance as a blind man, Gu Yu escaped layer after layer of interrogation.

She could feel that Prince An had obviously reduced the intensity of the search for her and the broom star.

This is not a good phenomenon.

If you don't look for them anymore, it means it doesn't matter whether they leaked the secret or not.

Since there will be a rebellion soon, it doesn't matter anymore.

Arriving in the city that never sleeps, Gu Yu experienced the well-deserved reputation of Little Kyoto.

Even if there is no curfew at night, business will be more prosperous.

The shouts of vendors came along the river, the traffic was busy and orderly, and the shops on both sides of the road hung bells, which jingled when the wind blew.

The lanterns were just starting to light up, and the water vapor brought by last night's heavy rain had not yet dissipated, adding a bit of haziness to the red lanterns in front of every house.

Gu Yu randomly found a restaurant and froliced ​​in the lobby. Everyone was immersed in the prosperous scene of the city that never sleeps, and did not realize that the chaos was coming.

At most, businessmen traveling to and from the surrounding areas would complain that the city gates are heavily policed ​​recently and they have to wait in line for a long time. When will the two thieves who stole the treasures be caught?

Gu Yu ordered a bowl of wontons and a plate of fried dumplings, and ate them slowly.

Surprisingly, I found that everyone was praising Prince An for his virtue and kindness.

In their words, there is no emperor, only Prince An.

This is not good news.

Prince An has a high prestige in the hearts of the people in Jiangnan, and he is an invincible weapon in the hearts of the people.

Moreover, Gu Yu heard that in this mixed place, several people deliberately said these words. She guessed that these were people deliberately arranged by Prince An in order to build momentum for his rebellion.

Gu Yu ate a wonton, when the waiter in the store said mysteriously: "Have you heard? Princess Fanggui's health is getting worse."

Gu Yu slowed down her chewing movements and listened carefully to their words.

One person asked: "Didn't Prince An invite famous doctors from all over the world to treat Princess Fanggui? There are so many famous doctors, but none of them can cure her?"

The waiter said: "I heard that more than a dozen famous doctors have gone there, but Prince An has left them all in the villa."

Another person said: "Prince An's filial piety is so touching. I heard that Concubine Fanggui wanted to eat Poria cocos cake from Kyoto. He spent a lot of money in Jiangnan to recruit pastry chefs from Kyoto, just to make Concubine Fanggui taste authentic."

."

Gu Yu spoke at the right time: "Then Prince An will hire a famous doctor for Concubine Fanggui this time. Doesn't it cost tens of thousands of gold?"

The man said: "More than ten thousand gold, if Prince An's wife can be cured, then Prince An can't treat that doctor as a benefactor."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Gu Yu also smiled slightly and asked: "What disease did Princess Fanggui suffer from? She couldn't be cured for so long?"

The waiter touched the back of his head and said, "How do I know about your noble lord's affairs?"

Gu Yu asked again: "When did Concubine Fanggui become ill?"

The waiter said: "I have been ill for a long time, but I heard that my health has become worse and worse in recent days, so Prince An went to find a doctor and caused such a big fuss."

In recent days, Gu Yu has been thinking about these words in his heart.

Suddenly I thought of the ridiculous things Dr. Chang had done and called the waiter over.

She took out a few pennies from her pocket and put them into her little hand, and said: "Little brother, I want to ask you how to treat Princess Fanggui?"

The waiter looked Gu Yu over and said: "Sir, please don't blame me for speaking harshly. There are so many famous doctors who are helpless. You are a blind man who knows nothing about sight, hearing, inquiry, and everything. Can you cure the disease?"

Gu Yu was not annoyed and said: "Although I am blind, I have practiced medicine for many years and have never made a mistake. Besides, Prince An is virtuous and benevolent. Even if I cannot cure Princess Fanggui, Prince An will not blame me."

.If I can cure it well, wouldn’t it mean that I will become a successful person? Do you think this is true?”

The waiter and the diners next to her both laughed. The waiter said: "That's the truth, but if you are willing to try it, just go and try it. Concubine Fanggui now lives in Jinyi Villa in the center of the Evernight City. You can go there

After you reveal the list and pass the assessment by the medical officer, you can enter."

Gu Yudao: "It's strange. People who are sick should rest in peace, so how can they live in a busy city?"

The waiter said: "Foreigners, you don't know. The Prince's Mansion covers a large area and is on the outskirts of the city. However, Concubine Fanggui loves to be lively. If she doesn't live in the Prince's Mansion, she prefers to live in the bustling city. In the past, when she was in good health

, we often see her riding in a sedan chair to the theater to listen to plays."

Gu Yudao: "She is ill now. Is Prince An also guarding Jinyi Villa?"

The waiter said: "Prince An is busy with his affairs and comes here every once in a while, but the two princes have been guarding Concubine Fanggui at Jinyi Villa."

Gu Yu nodded and said, "Thank you, second brother."

The waiter said: "You're welcome."

Gu Yu walked out of the restaurant with a bamboo stick and disappeared into the swaying lights of the city that never sleeps.
