Tangled

After hearing her words, the old lady straightened up and looked at her, but didn't speak for a long time.

Being scrutinized by the old lady, even knowing that the old lady would not treat her badly even if she said something wrong, Gu Qingning still couldn't help feeling nervous.

She knew that what she said was really bold, but if the prince had the slightest intention for her, why would she take such a risky move.

Although the crown prince is highly valued, the rest of the princes are not without opportunities.

If you plan well, it is all right to replace the crown prince with someone else.

"Let me think about this matter."

This matter involves too much, and if they want to stand in line again, they will definitely offend some people. Although the old lady is impatient, she dare not gamble the entire Hou Mansion easily.

Although the old lady didn't agree immediately, but Gu Qingning understood the old lady, and she would probably agree with her like this.

"You go back first, take a good rest first, and then go to see Princess Suyang in two days."

No matter whether you plan to change someone or not, it won't be a bad thing to make friends with Princess Suyang.

Although he didn't want to put a hot face on a cold butt, but since the old lady had already spoken, Gu Qingning obediently agreed.

In Changfeng Pavilion, treasures of heaven, material and earth were held in like flowing water, and a strong smell of medicine hovered over the courtyard.

It has been several days, the imperial physician has already had a few strands of white hair, and his eyes are already bloodshot, but Shen Qiqi still shows no sign of waking up.

Before I got close, I smelled a pungent bitter smell, so bitter that I almost couldn't breathe.

Mu Chengze was followed by several imperial physicians, and when he entered the courtyard, he couldn't help himself, so he took a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose.

Several imperial physicians changed shifts, taking pulse and administering acupuncture. After working for a long time, there was still no effect.

"Ashu, you should also go to court. Many official duties have been left behind, and Gu is too busy every day."

As Mu Chengze said that, he didn't feel that the medicine in the yard smelled bitter. Now he felt that he was about to vomit bitterness outside.

Because of the private soldiers and the assassination, there are a lot of papers these days, and he is already too busy, and he has to help him to annotate his paper.

Now it's not only Gu Tingshu, even he hasn't had a good night's sleep.

"The imperial physicians said that my cousin has been in a coma all this time because of her severe deficit, and the poison in her body has been detoxified."

"She only needs to be raised well to wake up. Even if he stays here every day, she won't wake up earlier."

"Father asks about you every day, even if you don't want to critique the son, you should go and talk to Father yourself."

He earnestly persuaded him one sentence after another, but Gu Tingshu remained unmoved.

"By the way, last time, the second brother was punished to guard the imperial tomb. If there is no edict, he will never be able to return to the capital in this life. And his remaining party, beheaded and exiled, have all received their own retribution .”

Speaking of these, Gu Tingshu finally had a reaction, turned to look at him, and held his lips for a long time.

"But there are still some people who didn't get the retribution they deserved!"

He didn't need an answer to his words, Mu Chengze was silent for a long time before he reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

"The smell of medicine here is too strong. It must be not conducive to my cousin's recuperation. You should send her back to your own yard as soon as possible."

If it is not that her current body is not suitable for traveling, it would be great to take her to the imperial courtyard to recuperate.

The smell of medicine in the yard was indeed too strong, and the imperial doctor also said that it would be better to change places to recuperate, but her breath was weak, and he was really afraid that she would stop breathing if she moved.

"It will take another two days, wait for her breath to stabilize before sending her back."

All the Haidongqing in the yard flew away, and in two days, Shen Qiqi might be suffocated to death by the smell of the medicine.

Mu Chengze pursed his lips, and shrugged his shoulders as a signal to let him go.

"You came here just to tell me this?"

He didn't leave after speaking, just stood together.

Gu Tingshu felt that he should have something to say, but after waiting for a while, he did not speak.

Originally, he wanted to tell him about the trip to Ningzhou City, but in his current situation, and Shen Qi hadn't woken up yet, how could he say it.

"If you want to say it, hurry up, if you don't say it, go back."

Before he could speak, Gu Tingshu directly issued an order to evict the guest.

"There are things, but when I think about it carefully, I don't think it's such an important thing. Let's talk about it in a few days."

He still didn't say anything, Gu Tingshu glanced at him, then turned his head and looked at the wing room for a long time, before saying:
"Wait until she wakes up."

It was originally planned. If it wasn't for the people in the room, they might have gone halfway by now.

"The trip to Ningzhou is not in a hurry. Although the prefect of Ningzhou is crazy, he doesn't have heavy soldiers at hand, but he doesn't dare to do anything too outrageous."

His current ability is limited, and he only dared to deduct taxes secretly, but he didn't dare to do anything else.

"You came here just to talk about it. Don't say it's urgent now. Do you feel a pain in your face?"

Mu Chengze: ...

Gu's face didn't hurt, not at all, but his hands were itchy.

I thought of him with good intentions, but he had such an attitude, it was simply too ignorant.

If it wasn't for the fear of quarreling with my cousin, I must have a good discussion with him now.

"Okay, don't want this expression anymore, cousin Jiren is blessed by God, she will be fine."

He said another word of relief, seeing that Gu Tingshu was still unmoved, he could only pat him on the shoulder again.

After sleeping for more than half a month, when she regained consciousness, Shen Qiqi only felt that her body was pressed tightly by a heavy object, and she couldn't even move her fingers except to breathe.

She couldn't open her eyes, she could perceive everything in the outside world, and smelled the increasingly heavy smell of medicine, she wondered why she still had to take this medicine.

Now her mouth is already extremely bitter, and if she drinks this bitter medicine again, half of her life may die.

As the sound of the porcelain bowl being placed beside the bed sounded, she felt herself being lifted up, and then leaned into a gentle embrace.

Being too close, the smell of old Man'e penetrated through the thick bitterness into his nose, and Shen Qiqi didn't need to guess who was hugging and feeding him the bitter medicine.

She wanted to refuse, but how could she have the strength to refuse? The force of feeding the medicine was too domineering, and she could only passively swallow spoonful after spoonful of soup medicine.

When the other party stopped, she thought to herself, the slower the medicine is drunk, the more bitter it will be.

Although she didn't resist, a subtle expression of disgust unconsciously appeared on her pale face.

The expression flashed by, and it was too subtle. If Gu Tingshu hadn't kept his eyes on her face, he might not have been able to capture that moment.

Knowing that she has become conscious, Gu Tingshu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If things go on like this, she will wake up soon.

He put down the bowl, and took a handkerchief to help her wipe off the concoction on her mouth.

As soon as she finished drinking the medicine, she would vomit when she lay down, but Gu Tingshu kept her current movement for a long time, making sure that she would not vomit before putting her down.
