After having the fever for two days and three nights, she lost a lot of weight. When she looked in the mirror, she felt like she was losing weight.
There was only the last day left for the talk party that she had worked so hard to organize, and she had to go no matter what today.
Showing a smiling face in the mirror, she stood up with support on the table, her legs and feet still a little weak.
Sickness comes like a mountain, and goes away like a thread. She has always been in good health, but when she suddenly gets sick, it is very difficult to bear.
The weather had warmed up in the past two days and the sun rose early. While the Duke's Mansion was still quiet, she walked around her sister's Fountain Courtyard.
It was still early and there was no sound inside. My aunt didn't give any more orders to stop her from seeing her sister, but her sister didn't want to see her.
After this incident, my sister became even more timid than before, and the slightest sign of disturbance would cause all the trees and grass to fall into disarray.
There were no men at all, and the guards in the mansion were ordered not to go near Fangting Courtyard.
Even when Dr. Leng checks her pulse these days, he has to do so through a thick gauze curtain and a silk handkerchief on her wrist.
My aunt has been sleeping next to my sister at night for the past few days. I heard from my aunt that my sister always wakes up at night.
Gu Yu was at a loss. She didn't know how to win back her sister. It was a luxury for the two sisters to meet each other.
She waited at the door until Sang Ya came out. This was a tacit understanding between them.
Sang Ya knew that the Crown Prince would come over every morning, so she would find an excuse to come out when the time came.
Two days ago, the prince had a high fever and stood there with a red face, unable to persuade him to go back. Today he looks much better, but he has lost a lot of weight.
Sang Ya said: "Miss has regained her composure today and knows how to take the initiative to ask for food."
Gu Qiong has been like a wooden figure these days. Aunt Su feeds her everything she eats and drinks. Today, she took the initiative to ask for food, which is already a big improvement.
Gu Yu asked: "Did she say what she wanted to eat?"
Sang Ya shook her head: "I just said I was hungry, and my aunt made some porridge and side dishes with her own hands."
Gu Yudao: "Is it nice to get in?"
Sang Ya sighed, it was self-evident.
Gu Yu lowered her eyes and said, "I understand, you take good care of her."
Gu Yu got on the carriage alone. When no one was around, all her expressions would be removed, and she would exude a sense of decadence.
When she arrived at Yudu Mountain, she put on the mask again and became the noble and noble Prince Gu again.
The talks in the first two days went smoothly. There was only a little friction between the Kyoto students and the Jiangnan students, and they were quickly suppressed by the officials.
After all, the Holy One is paying attention and no one dares to be too presumptuous.
Gu Yu got off the carriage and walked up the steps of Yudu Mountain, when she happened to see the Sixth Prince and his companion Zheng Yuanlang coming over.
She always half-crouched when talking to the Sixth Prince, and the Sixth Prince took the opportunity to touch her forehead.
"Little uncle, are you feeling better? My mother and I are very worried about you."
Gu Yu smiled, squeezed the sixth prince's little hand, and said, "It's better now. I told my sister not to worry, it's just a little cold."
Afraid of causing trouble to my elder sister, my sister's affairs and her family law were not reported to the palace.
"Is Prince Gu okay?"
Junze's voice came from behind, and Gu Yu couldn't help but frown.
To be honest, she didn't know what expression to put on when meeting the broom star.
Now there are rumors flying all over the place that he is unlovable for her, but the day before yesterday it was him who brought her back to his house, so she should say thank you because of the situation.
Junze came over holding the fifth prince in one hand and waving a fan in the other. He glanced at her and said, "The chef in the Duke's Mansion has changed. Isn't it to Prince Gu's taste? Why haven't I lost so much weight in two days?"
Gu Yu stood up.
Saying thank you is useless, thanking you will only make him kick your nose in the face.
After Gu Yu saluted, he said: "Whether there is a change of cook at home, I don't need to worry about it, Your Majesty."
At this time, the fifth prince standing next to Junze snorted coldly and said to her with an unkind expression: "Think of good intentions as a donkey's liver and lungs."
Gu Yu:...
Junze closed the fan with a snap, and sighed: "Yes, Prince Gu turns his back on others too quickly."
Gu Yu said calmly: "The prince is joking, how can I dare to be disrespectful to the prince?"
Jun Zedao approached her, vaguely smelling the fragrance of medicine, and said: "Shizi Gu's cold look is really sad. It would be better if you cried and begged me to take you home the day before yesterday."
After saying that, he took the fifth prince and left.
Gu Yu's face suddenly changed. She was groggy that day and indeed couldn't remember anything, but how could she cry and beg him.
This person must be teasing her!
It's so outrageous to say that to her in front of her children.
The fifth prince, who had not walked a few steps, suddenly said: "Cousin, did Prince Gu really cry and beg you that day?"
Before she could do anything, the sixth prince shouted: "How is that possible! He is a liar!"
The fifth prince paused and looked at him with a very unkind look, as if he did not expect his quail-like younger brother to suddenly speak like this.
Junze thought to himself, she didn't cry to beg me, but she cried and called me daddy. But if he said this, Gu Yu would be angry to death.
Seeing that Gu Yu also had an angry look on his face, he grinned: "I was joking with Prince Gu. Of course she wouldn't do that."
Hearing this, several people present were inexplicably relieved.
Only the fifth prince seemed a little disappointed, snorted softly, and followed Junze away.
Gu Yu suppressed the anger in her heart, holding the sixth prince with one hand and Zheng Yuanlang up the mountain with the other.
Zheng Yuanlang is the grandson of Zheng Daru. Ever since the fifth prince overturned the table in front of Zheng Daru, Zheng Daru, who was originally in a quiet position, sent his grandson to the sixth prince as a companion.
This was a pretty good trend. Gu Yu was happy to see the result. In addition, Xiao Xingzhi said that Zheng Daru was now teaching them, so she took the opportunity to say something to Zheng Yuanlang.
Zheng Yuanlang is nine years old this year, three years younger than the sixth prince. He has red lips and white teeth. Although he has a childish face, he imitates the words and actions of adults. His old-fashioned appearance is very interesting to watch.
As expected of Zheng Daru's grandson, he was already very advanced in knowledge at a young age. After a few questions, even she couldn't help but praise him.
The sixth prince next to him remained silent and just listened to their questions and answers.
Only when they reached the flat altar in front of the Confucius Temple did Gu Yu let go of their hands.
Suddenly, he noticed that the sixth prince's palms were sweaty. Seeing that he was not wearing thick clothes, he didn't take it to heart and simply wiped it with a handkerchief.
Today, the Holy Emperor specially sent two princes to attend the lecture. She probably wanted to help the two princes establish their reputation among the students. She still had the files from the previous two days to read, so she sent them to the group of young students from the Imperial College.
Six to seven hundred people gathered on the flat altar in front of the Confucius Temple, and gradually began to argue with each other with great momentum.
Listening to everyone's bickering, she felt like she was in a history book.
This grand occasion, which has not been seen in a century, will become a spiritual awakening for the poor scholars.
When the clerk from the Ministry of Personnel saw her coming, he quickly presented the files from the previous two days.
She flipped through it briefly, and found that the suggestions on the reform of the imperial examination system were gradually becoming more mature. Various unjust cases of imperial examination fraud were also placed on the desk of the Ministry of Punishments.
The aftermath of the talk show will last for a long time.
She looked at the arrogant attitude of those Kyoto students with cold eyes and closed the file. They were probably still immersed in the yesterday's glory of the family.
Little did they know that from the moment the Holy One agreed to hold a symposium, cracks began to appear in the clan system that had monopolized the upper class of the Yu Dynasty for hundreds of years, and imperial power was once again centralized.
