First Lady of the Crown Prince

Chapter 794 A warm family (second update)

 Zhang Dequan came to inquire about Shangguan Yan's condition today.

According to the plan, Xiao Heng told Zhang Dequan that Shangguan Yan woke up for a while during the day and fell asleep again in the afternoon.

Zhang Dequan was overjoyed after hearing this and hurriedly returned to the palace to report the good news about Shangguan Yan to the monarch.

When the five concubines Wang Xian and Concubine Wang Xian heard that Shangguan Yan had woken up, they couldn't help but feel panicked.

If they had any luck at first, thinking that Shangguan Yan was scaring them and not daring to die with them, then Shangguan Yan's awakening was undoubtedly the last wake-up call for them.

They must find something that makes Shangguan Yan interested as soon as possible and redeem the handle they have left in Shangguan Yan's hands!

 At night.

Xiao Qingkong was held down by her bad brother-in-law and after taking a shower, she climbed onto the bed, jumped up and down dissatisfiedly, and fell asleep.

Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng have discussed that Xiao Jingkong is now his little follower, and it is best to stay with him. After Shangguan Yan "recovers" enough to return to the palace, he can find a way to take Xiao Jingkong to live in the country. Go to the palace.

 “I just said, go and stay at my uncle’s house for a few days.”

Since the emperor’s eldest grandson has only a few months to live, his “last wish” will be fulfilled by the king.

Gu Jiao thinks it’s feasible.

 After the two of them finished talking, they went to their aunt's house.

 Gu Jiao was planning to pack things for her aunt, but unexpectedly she saw her aunt sitting on a chair with her legs crossed and eating melon seeds. The old priest held a baggage in one hand: "Everything is packed, let's go!"

 The corner of Gu Jiao's mouth twitched, you are so self-conscious as an aunt...

The Han family has even targeted Nan Shi Niang and others, and "Miss Gu" of Canglan Women's Academy is no longer safe.

Gu Jiao called Gu Chengfeng together and got into the carriage to go to the Duke's Mansion.

An Guoping went to bed early on weekdays, but tonight he had to hold on until now in order to wait for the two elders.

Regarding her identity, Gu Jiao didn't explain much. She only said that her real name was Gu Jiao, that she was from Zhao State, that she was the daughter of a marquis, or the princess who protected the country. She didn't mention a word about it.

As for the Empress Dowager Zhuang and Lao Jijiu, she only said that they were her aunt and uncle.

 Gong An Guo was originally a powerful person in the country, but since he cared about Gu Jiao, he would respect her along with Gu Jiao's elders.

 The carriage stopped at the gate of Fengyuan.

 Gong An Guo’s eyes were always fixed on the carriage. When Gu Jiao jumped off the carriage, the whole night seemed to be lit up by his gaze.

 It is a kind of stability and joy that I look forward to having my own child.

 Empress Dowager Zhuang glanced at him and was carried out of the carriage by Gu Jiao.

 Lao Jijiu went down by himself.

 Empress Dowager Zhuang: If you’re thick-skinned and want to be coquettishly carried, go on your own!

 Manager Zheng pushed An Guogong to the two elders with a smile on his face: "Hello, Mr. Huo, hello, Mrs. Huo."

Duke An Guo wrote on the armrest: "If I can't greet you in person, please forgive me."

Gu Jiao said to her aunt: "The Duke of Guo said that he welcomes you."

 Empress Dowager Zhuang glanced sideways at her: "You don't need to translate."

 The little girl’s heart is biased.

Gu Jiao said to An Guogong again: "My aunt is very satisfied with you!"

 The corner of Queen Mother Zhuang's mouth twitched. How could she tell that the Ai family was satisfied? The elbow turns outward a little too fast!

 “Hmph!” Empress Dowager Zhuang snorted and entered the courtyard with full aura.

Gu Jiao took the baggage from the old priest and sent her aunt to the decorated wing: "Auntie, what do you think of the Duke?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said expressionlessly: "You didn't even ask Ai Jia, how is Liulang doing?"

Gu Jiao blinked: "The melon is cut, I'll get it!"

 Out of the house in one second.

Empress Dowager Zhuang was angry and funny, and muttered nonchalantly: "He looks better than the father in your palace."

 “Auntie! Great-aunt!”

　　is Gu Yan's excited roar.

Empress Dowager Zhuang had just sneaked out a candied fruit, and her hands shook in fright, and she almost dropped the candied fruit on the ground.

 Gu Yan, you have changed.

 You have never been so noisy before!

After more than three months, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun finally saw their aunt and uncle again, and they were both very happy.

But when they smelled the unmistakable smell of gold sore medicine and bruised wine on the two elders, their eyes dimmed again.

 “Are you injured?” Gu Yan asked.

Empress Dowager Zhuang waved her hands carelessly: "It rained that day and I fell. It's okay."

It hurts to think about falling down at such an old age.

Gu Yan's eyes turned red slightly.

Gu Xiaoshun lowered his head and wiped his eyes.

"Okay, okay, isn't this a good thing?" Empress Dowager Zhuang couldn't see the two children in pain, so she pulled Gu Yan's lapel and said, "Let Aijia see your wound."

"I have no wounds." Gu Yan raised his chin and said.

Queen Mother Zhuang did not see the wound on his chest, and frowned: "Isn't it surgery? Is it a trick?"

Gu Yan's eyes flashed, and she fell into the arms of Queen Mother Zhuang exaggeratedly: "Yes, I haven't had the surgery yet. I'm so weak. Ah, my heart hurts so much, and my heart disease has attacked again—"

 Empress Dowager Zhuang slapped him on the forehead.

 Confirmed, this kid is alive.

 “Here.” Gu Xiaoshun dispelled the problem in a second and pulled up Gu Yan’s right arm. “The wound under the armpit is so small.”

 He gestured with his fingertips, "After applying scar cream, it's almost invisible."

The Queen Mother Zhuang also wants to see it.

Gu Jiao and An Guogong were sitting on the porch enjoying the cool air. An Guogong couldn't turn his head, but he could feel the joy from the heart even if he only listened to the noisy sounds inside.

 After losing Xuanyuan Zi and Yinyin, Dongfu has not been so lively for a long time.

 Er Master Jing and his second wife would often bring their children over to accompany him, but the excitement did not belong to him.

He has been alone for too long in the years, so long that his heart is almost numb, so long that he has become a living dead and never wants to wake up.

He wanted to die in the endless darkness countless times, but the naive brother invited famous doctors to prolong his life countless times.

 Now, he is grateful to his younger brother who never gave up.

Gu Jiao looked at it and asked, "Are you thinking about something?"

  “Yes.” An Guogong wrote.

 “What are you thinking about?” Gu Jiao asked.

Duke An Guo hesitated for a moment, but he wrote it truthfully: "I'm thinking that you are by my side, just like Yin Yin is by my side."

The feeling in my heart is the same.

“Oh.” Gu Jiao lowered her eyes.

 An Guogong hurriedly wrote: "Don't get me wrong, I am not using you as a substitute for Yin Yin."

 “It doesn’t matter.” Gu Jiao said.

 I can't tell you the truth now.

 Because, I still don’t know where my destiny is.

 When all the dust settles, I will tell you frankly.

It was late at night, and the two young men, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun, were not sleepy at all, but their aunt and uncle were noisy.

 Especially Gu Yan.

After recovering from his heart disease, his lethality was almost as powerful as that of Xiao Jingkong. He even held back a lot of words because he hadn't seen him for so long, and he was even more powerful than Xiao Jingkong.

 Auntie slumped on the chair soullessly.

Xiao Yan'er, who was aloof and taciturn back then, finally made the mistake of seeing her...

It was time for Duke An Guo to rest. He said goodbye to everyone, and Gu Jiao pushed him back to the courtyard.

 Gu Jiao pushed the Duke of Guo down the quiet path, with Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun laughing behind her. The night breeze was soft and she felt very comfortable.

When they arrived at the gate of An Guogong's courtyard, Steward Zheng was talking to a guard. Steward Zheng nodded to the guard: "I understand, I will tell Duke An. Please step back."

 “Yes.” The guard clasped his fists and retreated.

Steward Zheng lingered at the door for a while, and was about to go to Maple Courtyard when he looked up and saw Duke An Guo coming back.

 He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord."

 The Duke of Guo asked him with his eyes, what happened?

Manager Zheng did not have any scruples because of Gu Jiao's presence. He said truthfully: "The guards who escorted Mu Ruxin are back. This is a letter written by Mu Ruxin. I ask the Duke to read it."

Gu Jiao took the letter, opened it and spread it on An Guogong's armrest.

Manager Zheng hurriedly ran into the yard and took out a lantern to light it.

The letter stated that Mu Ruxin wanted to return to the country by herself. This period of time has been enough trouble, so she will no longer trouble the Duke's office.

　　I wrote it very politely, but I was sent away just like that. It would be hard to explain to the Duke of Guo when I got back.

In case Mu Ruxin really happened, it was rumored that he would blame the Guo Gong of the country and did not treat others. He actually left a weak woman to leave the house alone and be killed on the street.

 So the guards followed her for a while, hoping to make sure she was okay before returning.

Unexpectedly, he followed her to the Han family.

“She went in?” Gu Jiao asked.

Manager Zheng looked at Gu Jiao and said, "As the young master said, let's go in. The guard at our house said that she stayed at Han's house for half an hour before coming out. Then she went back to the inn, picked up her luggage, and went in with her maid. The Han family! They haven’t come out until now!”

Gu Jiao said calmly: "It seems that she has a new girlfriend."

Manager Zheng said: "I think so too! I heard that Han Shizi's feet were crippled, so she might have gone to work as a doctor for Han Shizi! This person is really..."

In front of the little master, he swallowed the words that he didn't like.

 “Let her go.” Gu Jiao said.

With her little medical skills, there is no telling whether she can cure Han Ye.

Duke An Guo didn't care about Mu Ruxin's whereabouts. He wrote: "Please pay attention. Someone may come to the house recently to inquire about news."

Manager Zheng's mind was very flexible, and he immediately understood what the Duke of Guo meant: "Do you think Mu Ruxin will inform the Han family? That the young master's family has moved into our house? Don't worry. ! Don’t say she can’t guess it at all, even if she guesses it, I can still deal with it!”
