Chapter 20

Gu Ruoyao really wanted to know how her father knew there was something different in Dingzhou.

Only by knowing the joints, can one know who the enemy is.

She was stupid all her life in her last life, but in this life, she wants to be a sensible person.

But it's best if you don't get involved with the person in front of you.

The prince in front of him was killed in the previous life.

Moreover, if it involves a battle between the princes, at the least, they will lose their lives, and at the worst, even the people around them will die without a place to bury them.

Throughout history, which prince is not covered with thin ice, and how many princes finally succeeded in ascending the throne as emperor?
Even if it is for the family.

She didn't dare, nor could she fall into it easily.

She will find another way to find out about her father.

Thinking of this, Gu Ruoyao raised her head, "Father never talks about business affairs in front of our siblings, so..."

"Does your father have any personal correspondence?" He checked all the official correspondence, but found nothing.

Gu Ruoyao was silent for a moment, and then said, "Yes." Even if it's repaying him for letting her know that her father's death was not an accident, maybe.

Chu Zhan paused, and suddenly said, "How did Miss Gu know that we were in the study yesterday?" After much deliberation, he still couldn't help saying.

Gu Ruoyao, "." So is His Highness the Crown Prince so forthright?
"What did you say?" Gu Ruoyao pretended to be stupid.

And, we?It turns out that there were more than one person in the room yesterday?

She has been in contact with medicinal materials all year round, and her nose is much easier to use than a group of people. When she entered the door yesterday, she felt something was wrong. Sure enough, after walking around, she found that the smell of ambergris was stronger near the curtain.

Among the people she knew, the only one who could afford ambergris was Prince Chu Zhan.

However, he said us?
So besides His Royal Highness, was there another person yesterday?

The study is so small, there is no other place to hide, where is the other person hiding?
Gu Ruoyao pondered.

And do you want her to admit that she once drugged His Highness the Crown Prince?She is not that stupid.

Chu Zhan seemed to have thought of this too, shook his head and chuckled, changed the subject and said, "Letter from your father"

"I'll go back and look for it. No matter if I can find anything, I'll come tomorrow, or this time, what do you think?" Gu Ruoyao didn't expect His Royal Highness to be so considerate, so she took the initiative to say.

Chu Zhan nodded, "Of course, I'll wait for you on time tomorrow." Well, tomorrow should be earlier, it's not very good to keep a girl waiting at home today.

After finishing the business, Gu Ruoyao said goodbye and left.

Yin Yi walked in and closed the door, "Your Highness, did Miss Gu say what kind of incense was used to bring us down yesterday?" I'm really curious.

Ordinarily, as the top guards, they have never seen any fragrance, and it is impossible for them to be overwhelmed by ordinary fragrance, otherwise they would not be qualified to be the prince's guards, but - they turned over yesterday.

This is really unspeakable pain.

Chu Zhan picked up the teacup, "If you have a chance, you can ask her yourself." If you can ask, I will obey you.

Ask her if the medicine has been used by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?A smart girl like her wouldn't do such a thing.

Chu Zhan thought of something, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Didn't you say yesterday that the best tea here is Tieguanyin? Why is there Maojian today?" The shopkeeper of this inn is dishonest.

Hidden for a moment, how would he know? "It can't be that Ms. Gu was born more beautiful, right?"

Chu Zhan didn't want to talk to him.

Again, I kind of miss Hidden Eleven.

Back home, Gu Ruoyao asked Xiang Cao to wait outside, and walked into the warehouse again by herself.

There are also two rattan boxes in the warehouse, many of which are some sundries of the father, and there are only half a box of letters.

She took out the box containing the letters, was silent for a while, and opened each letter.

After half an hour, Gu Ruoyao silently closed the rattan box.

Got nothing.

Half of the letters here are some poems and poems written by my father to express his emotions after inviting a few close friends to enjoy the scenery, and the rest are nothing.

So, if there are no clues in the letters, what about the people around the father?
Gu Ruoyao suddenly thought of one person, and that was Master Chen Yi.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, if you want to become an official, you must be a Jinshi.And Chen Yi took the exam for almost 20 years, but he was just a candidate.

Chen Yu's family was poor, and after nearly 20 years of taking the exam, his family could no longer afford it. Although he wanted to work hard for a few more years, his family could not support his studies at all.

That year, Chen Yu's mother died of illness from overwork. He regretted not being able to do it himself, thinking that it was his own incompetence that caused his mother to be like this, so he wanted to throw himself into the lake. It was Gu Mingru who happened to pass by and rescued her.

After that, Chen Yi became Gu Mingru's master.

The two have similar temperaments, and they got along very well these years, but after the accident in the last life, Gu Ruoyao couldn't remember where Chen Yi went in the end.

She let Zhujie come in.

"You mean Master?" Zhu Jie was surprised.

Gu Ruoyao glanced at Zhujie, is there something wrong?

"The master came to the mourning hall the next day to bid farewell to the master, but he disappeared." It is said that the tree fell and the monkeys scattered, and the master fell, so it is not surprising that the master left.

Gu Ruoyao didn't believe it.

Father's personality is indifferent, he has been used to a single seventh-rank sesame official for so many years, Master Chen has also given up his further thoughts for so many years, the two have the same political views, so it can be said that they are as close as brothers.

Taking a step back, even if the master really wants to leave, he won't disappear the next day.

This is not right.

She asked Zhujie to investigate.

Looking at the back of the bamboo knot disappearing, Gu Ruoyao lamented once again how true she was in her previous life.
