Chapter 73
As soon as the words fell, Liu Li came over with a small snake that was as long as an arm.

"Look, lady, there are snakes here! But they are a bit small."

Du Yi was so frightened that he hugged Gu Caiwei's arm tightly. "She, she...how did she catch the snake? Isn't she afraid of being bitten?"

"As long as you hold the snake by seven inches, it won't be able to bite you even if it wants to." Gu Caiwei said with a smile, "But this is also a skill, and I will teach you slowly in the future."

"I don't want to learn it!" Du Yi quickly shook his head, "Why should I learn this? It's useless."

"That's not necessarily true." Gu Caiwei corrected him solemnly, "People live a lifetime, who knows where they will go and what they will encounter in the future? Some skills, such as catching and driving snakes, are not right for you if you learn them. Disadvantages, it may save your life at a critical time in the future, so it is good to learn."

Du Yi pouted. "But this thing is disgusting."

"Then you are even more wrong." Gu Caiwei hurriedly shook her head again, "Snakes are the most beautiful things in the world. Look at its skin, the lines are patchwork, the scales are shining, and its body is flexible. The perception is very strong. The snake is full of treasures, and the skin, gall and bones can be used as medicine. Of course, the most important thing is-snake meat is delicious! And it’s a great tonic! It’s a pity that we eat all of our meals today It's over, otherwise I really want to skin this snake and roast it for you to eat now."

After listening to her talk till the end, Du Yi was finally not afraid anymore. "After a long time, your focus is still on eating."

"Does it matter? In my eyes, there are only two kinds of food that can be eaten or not. What can be eaten is divided into whether it is delicious or not, and how to make it more delicious." Gu Caiwei said with a smile.

Du Yi twisted his head. "You little lady is so scary, you want to eat everything you see!"

"Really, snake meat is delicious. After you eat it once, you will definitely want to eat it a second time, and you can't stop after that!" Gu Caiwei hurriedly rubbed his tender little face.

"Then let's wait until we really eat it!" Du Yi muttered softly.

In the end, he was really persuaded by Gu Caiwei's fallacious reasoning, and willingly surrendered.

Du Juanqing saw this scene in his eyes, and he silently turned his head away.

At this moment, Liuli was still happily holding the snake that was writhing and struggling in her hand. "Lady, what about the snake now? Let's take it home for dinner?"

"It's ok! But now there is only one piece. If it is dissected and washed, there won't be much meat. It's not enough for two of us! It would be great if there were two more." Gu Caiwei sighed in a low voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, Ah Zhong yelled again: "God, why is there another snake!"

"Lady, I'll catch the snake!" Liu Li hurried over excitedly after hearing this.

But immediately after, I heard the servants who followed me shouting one after another, and all of them turned pale with fright.

Seeing this, Gu Caiwei immediately turned cold. "Even if the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and the hibernating snakes have all come out of their holes, then they won't come out to us in full force, right? Snakes are also spiritual things, and they won't come to places where there are people."

When Du Juanqing, Du Yi and his son heard the words, their expressions also darkened.

"So, you mean that someone put snakes here on purpose?" Du Juan asked coldly.

"Does this need to be said?" Gu Caiwei snorted coldly, she quickly grabbed Du Yi's little hand and stuffed it into Du Junqing's, "Look at Ayi, I'll help!"

He quickly pulled out the dagger from his waist and went to the other side.

Being left behind by her with the child, Du Juanqing's expression turned ugly.Du Yi watched Gu Caiwei stride to the place where the snakes were haunted, and waved his hand to catch the snakes running around, and the snakes immediately stopped moving.Throwing this into the basket that Liuli was carrying, she immediately went to grab the next one, and then threw it again.The movements were clean and neat, and he caught three or four in a short while, and a look of envy appeared in his eyes.

Looking back at Du Juanqing who was standing stupidly like himself, he couldn't help saying in a low voice: "Father, I suddenly feel that we are so useless."

Du Juan looked calm. "It's fine if you think so in your heart, you don't need to say it."

Du Yi flattened his mouth again. "But, are we really going to help? It's not good for us two big men to be protected by two little ladies?"

"I don't know how to catch snakes." Du Juan said in a deep voice, "You also don't know how to catch snakes, so even if we pass by, it will only cause trouble for them. So, now we stand here obediently and don't move around, that is to give them They helped."

"You're right." Du Yi nodded his head, "But why do I still feel weird?"

In fact, he is also strange!Du Juan said inwardly.

Thinking of his majestic Chang Ninghou, he is also the pillar of the Hou's mansion anyway, and he can quickly make a decision on any matter in the mansion that is in his hands.But now... He was in the wild, but he could only watch a little lady running around to protect them. This was the first time in his life, and he suddenly felt that he was not even as good as a little lady!It's a bad feeling.

And over there, Gu Caiwei, Liuli, and Dahei, who cooperated with each other, can be regarded as arresting all the snakes that broke in rashly.

"My God! Look, lady, there are so many!" After catching, Liuli hurriedly brought the basket over to Gu Caiwei to see.

Gu Caiwei smiled lightly. "There are so many, it's enough for me to prepare many dishes in different ways, which is not bad!"

But at this moment, Heifeng suddenly yelled again.As soon as Liuli raised her head, her eyes widened immediately. "Miss, be careful!"

Gu Caiwei also heard a slight sound of wind sweeping from behind, and when she turned her head, she saw a colorful snake coming behind her at some point, opening its mouth to her and spitting out red letters.

Now it was too late to grab the dagger, Gu Caiwei quickly reached out to block it, and then shouted: "Liuli, take my dagger!"

Liuli quickly grabbed the dagger and drew it out, splitting the snake in half with one blow.However, this couldn't stop the snake from biting Gu Caiwei's arm.

"Auntie!"

Seeing this scene, Du Yi's face turned pale with fright, he quickly yelled, shook off Du Juanqing's hand and ran over with big strides.Du Juanqing also frowned, and he quickly moved away.

At this time, after Liuli chopped the snake, she didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly chased another snake behind her.

Gu Caiwei's body softened and fell to the ground.

Although Du Juanqing started late, but he was tall and long-legged, so he came to Gu Caiwei a few steps ahead of Du Yi.He quickly wanted to help the little lady up, but Gu Caiwei shook her head immediately: "Don't move me, the more violent the movement, the faster the toxins in my body will flow. Now, quickly tear off my clothes and look at the wound .”

Du Juanqing nodded without hesitation, took out his saber, and cut open her sleeves, revealing her snow-white arms hidden inside.

It's just that there is now a deep bite mark on this section of the arm that was originally delicate and flawless, and a drop of black poisonous blood oozes on it, and even the surrounding area of ​​the bite mark begins to swell with blackness and redness.

Seeing this, Du Juanqing's eyes immediately became dark.

"Now, first use something to tie a tape one finger above the bitten wound, so as to slow down the blood flow." Gu Caiwei said in a low voice.

Du Juanqing made another stroke on her broken sleeve, cut off a long piece of silk, and tied it above the wound for her.Under Gu Caiwei's command, he tied the belt tightly and tightly.

At this time Du Yi finally arrived.When he saw Gu Caiwei's wound, his eyes immediately turned red, and tears fell down.

"I'll give you drugs!" He cried and rushed over.

"Stop him!" Gu Caiwei said immediately.

Du Juanqing pulled his son aside, and Gu Caiwei said weakly: "It was a five-step snake that bit me. This snake is extremely poisonous. If you take the poison directly mouth-to-mouth, not only will you not be able to give me the poison on my body. If you suck it out, you will be poisoned as well.”

"Then what should I do? Can't I just watch you die in front of me?" Du Yi cried even more sadly.

Gu Caiwei reluctantly raised the corners of her lips. "Then you're thinking too much. I've only lived for so many years. How embarrassing would it be if I died under the mouth of a snake like this?"

As she said that, she instructed Du Juanqing again: "Find a piece of cloth with good air permeability, cover the wound, and find someone who has no broken mouth and is sick to suck it for me."

"it is good."

Du Juanqing nodded immediately, lifted the hem of the clothes, cut off a piece of light and breathable gauze from the inner garment, covered her wound, and began to suck blood one mouthful after another.

He took more than a dozen mouthfuls, and the black blood coming out of Gu Caiwei's wound finally became less dark.

"What's next?" He asked again, taking off the purse from Gu Caiwei's waist, "You should have snake medicine here, right?"

Gu Caiwei nodded, and instructed him to find a black pill the size of a little fingernail: "This is divided into two halves, one half is taken internally, and the other half is broken and applied externally."

Du Juanqing immediately broke apart the pill, put half of it into his mouth, and he chewed the other half, then spit it out for her to apply on the wound.

"Hey you……"

Seeing this, Gu Caiwei's expression changed, and she quickly cried out weakly.But Du Juanqing was so careless in doing things this time, she only said two words, and he had already finished everything!

Seeing that the man had started wrapping her wounds round and round, she said helplessly, "There's water right next to it, why don't you chew it with your mouth?"

After Du Juanqing tied the bandage, he raised his eyes to look at her. "It's a moment to fight for one more moment."

Gu Caiwei curled her lips powerlessly.

Du Yi squatted aside with two red eyes that were crying like a bunny. Hearing this, he also nodded quickly: "Father is right, it's a moment if you can fight for a moment. Otherwise, who knows you will Won't……"

He was so distressed that he wanted to cry again.

Look in front of you, although Du Juanqing has come over in time to clean her toxins and apply medicine, but Gu Caiwei's body is still so weak that she can't even get up, and the blood on her face has quickly faded, leaving only a pale face Weak, it is painful to see.

From her appearance to now, it was the first time he had seen her so weak!
After dressing Gu Caiwei's wound, Liuli finally came back.

"My lady, these snakes were chased away by me and Heifeng. However, there are now three batches of snakes, and each batch is more poisonous. In case there will be such poisonous things coming out in the future, let's leave quickly Bar!"

"Indeed, we shouldn't have come to this place in the first place!" Du Yi whispered with red eyes.

Du Juanqing's complexion was slightly gloomy, and he hugged Gu Caiwei up. "Let's go back home."

A group of people came here happily, but they were so hurried and depressed when they left.

After sending Gu Caiwei to the carriage, Du Yi didn't ride the horse again, but climbed into the carriage. "I'll stay with you!" He said, holding Gu Caiwei's hand tightly.

Gu Caiwei pulled the corner of her mouth reluctantly. "OK!"

It's just that she is really powerless now, so she can only reluctantly respond to him, then close her eyes and fall into a deep sleep.

Du Juanqing led the way on a horse.Hearing Du Yi's intermittent sobbing in the carriage, his face also became gloomy.

After walking out for more than half an hour, they rushed to the horse and returned to Hou's mansion after walking for about a stick of incense.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Du Juanqing jumped off the horse, carried Gu Caiwei off the carriage and sent her back to the room.While walking, he ordered: "Go and invite the imperial physician!"

Seeing this, the maids and servants in the courtyard were all terrified, and quickly agreed to go.

Being hugged by him in the conversation, Gu Caiwei, who had fallen asleep, woke up again.Opening her eyes weakly, she saw Du Juanqing carefully putting her on the bed.And Du Yi, the little guy leaned on the edge of the bed and looked at her eagerly, with two tears rolling back and forth in his eyes.

Gu Caiwei was about to say something to him, but Du Juanqing interrupted her. "You rest well, we are here."

Gu Caiwei was indeed weak, so she shut up.

Seeing this, Du Juanqing turned around and scolded again. "Get all the people who went out with us today, as well as the people who prepared all kinds of equipment for the carriages and horses before!"

When the people in the house heard the news, they hurried to look for it again.

While waiting for someone, Du Yi pulled Du Juanqing's hand again. "Father." The cry was pitiful, with a crying tone.

Du Juan lowered his head and heard him ask: "She will be fine, right?"

"Of course she will be fine." Du Juan nodded, "Didn't you see that the snake venom on her body is almost gone? She also brought snake medicine with her, so she is safe."

"But I'm still afraid!" Du Yi said, his small body began to tremble.

When Du Juanqing saw this, his eyelashes drooped slightly, and he hugged his son into his arms.

Not long after, the imperial physician had arrived.Liuli also took care of the matter at hand, she hurriedly led the person to the inner room, the imperial doctor felt the pulse of Gu Caiwei, and then looked at the wound, he suddenly showed surprise: "The toxins in Madam's body have been almost eliminated, This wound is also treated very well, it seems that she has an expert by her side! If this is the case, it will not be of much use if the old man comes. The medicine she uses on her body is much better than the snake medicine in the old man's medicine box Now, I don’t dare to take out the axe. I just don’t know, who is the expert next to Madam? I want to ask him for advice on how to deal with being bitten by a snake.”

This tall man is the bitten man himself.It's just that Gu Caiwei is so dazed now that she doesn't have the energy to ask him for advice.

Du Juanqing asked someone to invite the imperial physician over, but in fact, he just wanted to verify his own thoughts.Now that it has been proven that Gu Caiwei's handling method is indeed effective, he let go of his high-hanging heart.

"I'll talk about this matter later. Benhou's wife has been bitten by a snake now, and Benhou is not in the mood to talk about anything else." He said coldly.

The imperial doctor nodded quickly. "Yes, the old man knows. The old man is going to prescribe a pair of medicine for clearing away heat and nourishing the body for the madam. The madam only needs to drink one dose every day, and rest for half a month or so, and she should be fine."

Du Juan nodded, and the servant hurriedly led him out.

Immediately afterwards, Du Ren came over to report again: "Master Hou, all the people you are looking for have been found. It's just..."

Du Juan looked up, and Du Ren said: "There is a boy in charge of checking the car, named Huang San, who asked the housekeeper for leave early this morning, saying that he had something to do at home and left. His subordinates have already sent people to his house to arrest him." .”

Another shadow cast over Du Juanqing's face.

"It's okay, he was definitely not the only one who did this. He must have accomplices."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left the room, and sure enough, he saw that the outside was already full of people.

As soon as they saw him appear, two stern eyes scanned the past, and all the maids and servants immediately felt that there was a gust of wind, and they immediately got goosebumps on their backs.

"Today, the Marquis and his wife were attacked by poisonous snakes when they went out for an outing. It stands to reason that, except for the carriages and horses of the Hou Mansion, they would have been sprinkled with insect repellent potion. But why did the carriages and horses go out today, not only did they not drive away the snakes, On the contrary, you have provoked so many snakes?" Du Juan asked coldly.

The man who cleaned the carriage early this morning fell to his knees with a plop in fright. "Master Hou Mingjian! The little one was really wiped! And because I knew you, Lord Hou, were going to a place where snakes, rats, rats and ants were infested, the little one wiped it three times. It was wiped inside and out, even the cracks I didn't let it go. This is a small job, and the small ones don't dare to mess around!"

"Really? Then why did so many snakes appear in the end?" Du Juan asked coldly.

"This... the little one doesn't know either! But this is definitely not about the little one, the little one can guarantee it with his life!"

"What does your life have to do with this Marquis? Even if there are a hundred of you, it's not worth one life of Madam!" Du Juan said coldly.

The boy was trembling with fright, tears were already falling down.

"Hou Ye." At this moment, Liu Li called softly, and she walked over slowly.

Du Juanqing looked back at her, and saw Liuli holding a bag of small things in both hands: "This matter really has nothing to do with him. Just now, when I was outside the city outside the city, the servant girl checked it carefully, and then put it at the table where my wife had dinner. The thing was found under the case.”

Du Ren brought it over to him, and Du Junqing opened it to have a look, and found that it was a bag of black things about the size of a fist, which he had never seen before. "What's this?"

"This is an attractant used by folk snake hunters. Just fill it with some medicinal materials and put it outside, and the snakes will flock to it when they smell it. It's just that this thing is actually not good for snakes. Snakes will swarm after smelling it. It will change its temperament drastically, and it will bite whatever it encounters. When it is caught, the venom in the fangs is almost sprayed out, and the selling price will be halved. So regular snake catchers don’t bother to use this. Only those who are short of money and jealous, or those who are trying to cheat money by passing it off as a good one will use it." Liuli said every word.

"So it was this thing that killed her!" After hearing this, Du Yi's face became tense, "Father, we must find this person, so that he can feel the feeling of being bitten by a snake." We're looking for five...no, ten...one hundred snakes! That's right, one hundred to serve him, let him enjoy it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the crowd couldn't hold back, and his body softened and fell down.

Du Juanqing and his son were about to turn their eyes away, and the servant woman immediately burst into tears and snot.She kowtowed non-stop: "Master Hou, please calm down. The servant girl didn't expect him to do such a wicked thing! The servant girl was busy because of other things at hand, so Huang San volunteered to help me." .Because we often helped each other before, I didn’t take it seriously and handed over the matter to him. It’s just that after he finished it, I checked it to make sure everything was safe... It’s just that I never dreamed of it , He would actually play tricks under the table! I... the servant girl deserves to die, the servant girl deserves to die! But I beg you, Lord Hou, for the sake of the servant girl's intentions, please spare her life!"

Du Juan looked at her coldly. "Are you really as innocent as you say?"

The servant girl froze, kowtowed non-stop.

Du Juanqing glanced again. "Whoever has anything to do with this matter, stand up for yourself. Otherwise, if Benhou arrests you one by one, then Benhou won't listen to any explanation from you, and will execute you directly!"

After the words fell, there was another rustling sound in the crowd, and three more people came out one after another.

After listening to them explaining their identities, Du Juanqing's expression became even uglier - among these people, one actually followed him from the Duke Lai's mansion!

Immediately, his eyes turned cold, and the group of maids and servants below suddenly felt the howling of the dark wind, and bursts of coolness rushed around, and quickly surrounded them.

When Gu Caiwei opened her eyes again, it was already noon the next day.

Her voice was so dry and hoarse, she opened her mouth and called out with difficulty: "Liuli."

"Lady!" Liuli hurried over when she heard the movement.

However, it was Du Yi who ran over one step ahead of her.

I saw him rushing to the bed, and when he saw Gu Caiwei who opened his eyes, a gleam of light finally bloomed on his face.He hurriedly threw himself on the edge of the bed: "You are awake! How do you feel now? Are you still uncomfortable? Where is it uncomfortable? Tell me quickly!"

The corners of Gu Caiwei's mouth twitched. "Can you let me have a drink first?"

Du Yi was taken aback for a moment, then his face collapsed and he stepped aside.

Liuli hurried to a cup of warm water and fed it to her, and Gu Caiwei felt her throat a little more comfortable.

"I'm very sad." She just opened her mouth.

Du Yi hurriedly looked over again. "Is it hard?"

Gu Caiwei nodded, and said weakly: "I'm so weak that I don't even have the strength to move my fingers. My head is also dizzy, as if it's not my brain anymore. I'm still so sleepy that I want to sleep. Since I was ten years old Since then, I have never felt so uncomfortable."

Just hearing what she said, Du Yi felt uncomfortable in his heart.

"I'm sorry." He quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

Gu Caiwei immediately frowned. "You ate all the candy balls I made while I was sleeping?"

"No!" Hearing this, Du Yi stomped his feet anxiously, "Am I such a person? And you are already like this, why would I want to eat sweets!"

"That's right, my lady. Since you were bitten by a snake yesterday until now, the prince has been by your side all the time. He even completed the studies that Mr. told you. He has always remembered you in his heart, and he has not had a bite of food until now." Let's eat!" Liuli also hurriedly spoke for him.

"Is that so?" Gu Caiwei turned to look at him.

Du Yi nodded aggrievedly. "Otherwise? How can I be as heartless as you think!"

"You are heartless, you are stupid!" Gu Caiwei complained angrily, "How many times have I told you that your health is not good, and now you are still growing, every meal You must eat well and be full. But because of such a trivial matter, you stopped eating? Are you going to piss me off again? I managed to restore your body, but I didn’t let you ruin it like this! "

"You were bitten by a poisonous snake! You almost died! And it's all because of me! If I hadn't insisted on dragging you to go for an outing, and had to find a place where no one was around, you wouldn't, wouldn't... ..." Du Yi originally wanted to reason with her.But as he spoke, his eyes turned red and tears fell.

When Gu Caiwei saw this, she had no intention of teaching him a lesson.

"Hey, you child is too sensitive, and you think too much, just like a little lady." She sighed in a low voice.

Du Yi couldn't help but stare at her again. "I'm not a little lady!"

"Yes, yes, you are Xiao Langjun. So, if a man has tears, don't flick them lightly, can you stop crying? I was the one who was bitten by the snake, and I am the one who is suffering all over now. I didn't even cry!" Gu Caiwei quickly changed her words.

Du Yi wiped the corners of his eyes, and sure enough, he stopped the tears.

Gu Caiwei was relieved. "Actually, you don't need to blame yourself for this matter. Since someone is eyeing me, even if it doesn't work this time, he will definitely think of other ways to attack me next time. This time because we are looking for the wrong place, those The snake didn't hurt innocent people, and you were all lucky enough to avoid it. I was the only one injured, and this is already the best ending. You have to think so."

Du Yi flattened his mouth. "What did you do wrong to be bullied by them like this?"

"Can I still count my evil forms clearly?" Gu Caiwei chuckled, "Okay, let's not talk about these. I think your father has already found out the ghost while I was sleeping, so help me avenge it!"

"Yeah, a bunch of inner ghosts were found out, and the person who secretly put the snake-attracting potion under your desk was also arrested. But, he is just a young man, and the person who instructed him to do so came to him." I haven't confessed yet!" Du Yi yelled again.

"It's strange that he has to confess, then his family will not be able to live!" Gu Caiwei didn't care, "And even if he doesn't tell, can't your father find out?"

Du Yi's big bright eyes were full of sorrow. "You kept praising my father just after waking up. Is he so good in your eyes?"

"Well, now I've slowly discovered that he's actually really good. Although his mouth is a bit broken, his hands-on ability is really strong. He probably hasn't dealt with a case of being bitten by a snake before, but I just need to explain it to him. It is not an easy task to be able to complete according to my instructions. At the beginning, I had to teach Liuli dozens of times before she gradually cooperated with me!" A smile appeared on the corner of Gu Caiwei's mouth.

Liuli quickly covered her face. "My lady, don't bring up that dark history again, okay? I've already changed it!"

Gu Caiwei smiled and said to Du Yi again. "So, your father is really good."

Of course, the premise is that she has to deliberately ignore the fact that the person directly crushed the pill with her mouth and applied it to her.

Unexpectedly, all Gu Caiwei's words fell into the ears of Du Juanqing at the door.

He had heard that Gu Caiwei was awake, so he came over to see her, but he heard his son talking about him with Gu Caiwei, and every sentence was a compliment!
The man's face, which had been gloomy for a whole day and night, finally melted into gloom, and even the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.Standing beside him, Du Ren could even clearly see that the bottom of his master Hou's earlobe, which was as white as jade, gradually climbed up a little fresh pink, and this pink was still slowly climbing up, and it was about to occupy him. The entire earlobe!

It's over! It's over!

He couldn't help sighing in his heart - Master Hou is really going to be eaten to death by this little lady!

Du Yi in the room was very upset when he heard these words. "You know how to praise my father, why don't you praise me? I have guarded you for a day and a night!"

"Ayi, of course you are also very powerful! And don't worry, with me here, I will definitely make you stronger, even better than your father!" Gu Caiwei said quickly.

Only then did Du Yi show a little smile.

However, Du Juanqing outside was not happy when he heard this.

Quickly coughing lightly, he walked into the room, and Du Yi quickly stood up. "Daddy."

Du Juan nodded. "Since she's awake, you should rest assured and go study at Mr.'s place!"

Du Yi's face was full of reluctance, but he still nodded obediently. "Yes, the boy will leave."

Did he just leave?

Gu Caiwei was surprised.Seeing Du Juanqing walking towards her slowly, she narrowed her eyes slightly: "Did you reach any agreement with him?"

"Yes." Du Juan readily agreed, "He's so worried about you, he wants to guard you life and death. I don't think I can tell him to leave, so I promised him to stay here first, but as soon as you wake up, he has to go. He agreed. .”

"This agreement is not bad. You, a father, finally know how to love your son." Gu Caiwei nodded.

Du Juanqing took another fixed look at her before saying softly, "I found the person who released the snake yesterday."

"Who is it?" Gu Caiwei asked.

"Princess Jianchang."

"Oh, it turned out to be her." Gu Caiwei nodded, "I think so. She suffered so much under my hands, and it's pretty good that she can bear it until now. Moreover, letting me die under the mouth of a poisonous snake is also in line with the Wu family. Simple and rude style."

Du Jun's eyes darkened. "However, now I can only deal with the people in the house, and then arrest the one who interacts with the people in the house. This is the limit. I can't move Princess Jianchang for the time being."

"That's it, I understand, that's enough." Gu Caiwei nodded, "King Jianchang is now very popular with Her Majesty the Empress, and their family can't move casually. With your current status, if you rashly offend them, the price It's not good if the whole Hou Mansion is overthrown."

She spoke clearly and righteously, but Du Juan heard it clearly, and he was even more panicked.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" He asked in a deep voice.

Gu Caiwei thought for a while, then she blinked. "Then, since I offended Princess Jianchang and was bitten by a snake because of you, can you let me go earlier? Later, if I come back to Chang'an when I have time, don't stop me." Let me meet Ayi, can you?"

At this time, she still wants to leave!

Du Juan gritted his teeth. "Even if I stop you, will you really not see him? Will he listen to me again? You have already taken this child's heart away!"

Gu Caiwei was startled. "Why are you so angry? Didn't you ask me what I wanted to say just now? Then I said it, and you got angry again. Why are you so narrow-minded? "

"Benhou is narrow-minded, haven't you always known about this?" Du Juan snorted coldly, then turned around and left.

that's all?After saying a few words, he walked away?He also drove Du Yi away!

Gu Caiwei rolled her eyes speechlessly.

When Liuli saw this, she hurriedly whispered: "Lady, it's not good for you to be having a temper with Lord Hou. Yesterday, because of your injury, Lord Hou was very worried. He was concerned about your injury and was in a hurry. Find someone to instruct the teacher. Moreover, it doesn't matter if he finds it or not, he actually dug up several spies buried in the Hou's mansion, including the mansion of the Duke of Lai!"

"Really?" Gu Caiwei raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Why did the Lai State Palace arrange someone to come over and stare at him?"

"It's what Mrs. Lai Guogong meant. She was afraid that the Marquis would not be satisfied with being a Marquis, and would go back to the Duke's mansion to grab the title of the Duke."

Gu Caiwei immediately rolled her eyes even harder. "It's just such an empty shell, and they themselves are considered treasures. Who cares about others?"

"Doesn't the eldest lady of the Gu family care a lot? Didn't she privately encourage you and Lord Hou to snatch the Duke's title back last time?" Liuli reminded her in a low voice.

"Auntie is short-sighted and ignorant. A duke without real power is of course good to her. But Mrs. Lai Guogong is different. She is also a noble daughter after all. Now this duke and Mrs. It's not that she was comfortable when she was the wife of Shizi! But now she still clings to this position, treating others like thieves... This is interesting." Gu Caiwei chuckled, "However, knowing that my relatives put him He must feel uncomfortable being watched like an outsider."

"What's the point? I've heard people say that Master Hou didn't sleep last night and dealt with him overnight, but he didn't go to the Duke's mansion to make a fuss. It seems that he intends to settle the matter for peace." Liu Li said again.

"What can he do if he doesn't stop and let others go?" Gu Caiwei smiled lightly, "Could it be that he can still go against his parents? Then he is asking for his own death!"

However, she couldn't help but let out a low sigh when she said this. "He was a poor man indeed."

"Yes!" Liuli nodded, "You can find so many eyeliners in such a small Hou's mansion, so there will only be more people like this in other big families in Chang'an City? All day long. People are staring at every move, this life is really not human! So lady, let's go quickly! I don't like this place!"

"I don't like Chang'an either. But..." Gu Caiwei paused, then slowly opened her lips, her white teeth reflected a cold light, "Since others have already attacked me, if I don't fight back, I will run away Now, doesn’t that mean running away in their eyes? Escaping is not my style. Even if I want to leave, then I have to take back what he owes me before talking about it!”

Liuli immediately shook her shoulders, and she sighed inwardly—well, there should be some excitement in Chang'an City to watch.

But when Du Juan left Gu Caiwei's bedroom with a cold face, he saw another servant walking towards him. "Master Hou, the Thirteenth Prince of Qin is here."

"Please come in." Du Juanqing immediately nodded.

Soon, Qin Shisan came over.

"Qilang, I took a special look at the snakes you sent me yesterday, and found that the fractures on these snakes were neat and smooth, without any blockage, and they lost too much blood when their arms were cut off in the east of the city last time. The knife marks on the dead man are the same!" Seeing Du Juanqing, he said hastily.

"I know." Du Juan nodded, "It was all cut out with the dagger I gave her."

Qin Shisan's expression changed instantly. "Did you really give her the dagger? I'm afraid that a small piece of fine iron can only be dug out for less than ten pieces in an iron mine. Now it's only a little bit in your hands. I passed it on to you from my father. You didn't agree to exchange my treasured sword with you, but you gave it to her later? You, you, you...don't tell me, you really have a crush on her!"

"She was originally my wife." Du Juan responded calmly.

Qin Shisan's eyes froze immediately, and he looked Du Juanqing up and down for a long time.

"So, are you serious? Are you really attracted to her?"

Du Juan pursed his lips, then nodded his head as if making a major decision. "yes."

"You... Hey!" Qin Shisan immediately lost his fighting power like a deflated ball.

"At first, I thought, if you really give me an affirmative answer, I will definitely scold you! But now, after hearing the affirmative answer, I find that I can't scold at all." He smiled bitterly, "It's rare that you can meet another person who you can sincerely agree with, and she is good to both of you, father and son, except for your background... well, what does it matter? You like her, she likes you, that's all." It's the most important thing. You have suffered enough in this life, so let's indulge in it once!"

"She doesn't like me." Du Juanqing said immediately.

"Huh?" Qin Shisan was taken aback.

Du Junqing nodded. "She only likes Ayi. But it doesn't matter. She hated me at first, but now she doesn't hate me anymore. This is progress. It will definitely get better and better in the future."

Uh……

The corner of Qin Shisan's mouth twitched.

Did he read it right?His friend with a ten thousand year iceberg face actually smiled happily when he said that Gu Caiwei no longer hated him?He even started to plan vigorously for the future!

It seems that what Du Ren said was right, he was really fascinated by this little lady.However, since his own wife is also full of praise for Gu Caiwei, it means that this little lady does have merit.Then he likes it!
Qin Shisan sighed inwardly, and hurriedly said: "By the way, there is one more thing - Princess Taiping quietly sent people to Changlai County yesterday evening. After her, several groups of people followed closely behind. , also passed away."
