On the third day, Gu Qingci looked at Princess Chunyao, whose face slowly returned to normal. She could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Just when Gu Qingci was going to go out to find someone to exchange herbs, she heard someone talking loudly in the yard. When she got to the door, she heard Zhou Jizong's voice.

At this time, Tuoba Huan also arrived. He looked at Zhou Jizong, who was stopped by the guard at the door, frowned and said, "what are you doing here?"

Because of the poisoning of the people in the northern Jin Dynasty, Princess Chunyao made Tuoba Huan take precautions against Zhou Jizong.

Seeing Tuoba Huan coming, Zhou Jizong bowed and said, "Khan, I came to see the princess."

Tuoba Huan looked at him unhappily, "I said, you don't have to come to the princess's house these days."

Said Tuoba Huan to let people see off the guests, Zhou Jizong quickly said: "Khan! Before I leave, I still have the courage to say that the matter of the princess poisoning has yet to be verified. Khan must not be arbitrary, otherwise the real behind the scenes planners will succeed

Tuoba Huan's face became more heavy. "You really came to express your feelings. In your heart, Yao'er's life is not as important as the lives of the two northern Jin witches?"

Zhou Jizong frowned and said, "Khan, the princess is poisoned. No one wants to see it. Now Miss Gu has tried her best to cure the princess. The princess will be OK, and the truth will be revealed."

Tuoba Huan said angrily, "you don't have to remind me about this. Zhou Jizong, I left you and betrothed Yao'er to you. I want you to stay in Nanqiang and treat her well. Don't forget that!"

Zhou Jizong had to talk again. The door of the house opened, and Gu Qingci interrupted Zhou Jizong. "It's unnecessary to say that the young marquis is is self-cleaning. The princess's poison has been half solved. As long as you continue to change the dressing, you will wake up within two days, and then you will find the clue of the real murderer."

Seeing Gu Qingci saying this, Zhou Jizong was a little more determined. What he was most afraid of was what happened to Huaiqing in prison.

Gu Qingci's words diverted Tuoba Huan's attention. He was relieved when he heard that Princess Chunyao was getting better. However, for Gu Qingci, his face was still grim.

"Even if you cure Yao'er, you can't prove that you didn't cause the poison. I'll find out about it. I will not let anyone who hurt the royal family of Southern Qiang and will not injustice anyone."

Gu Qingci nodded, "since Khan said so, everything will be known after the princess wakes up."

It will be late, and the imperial medical station comes to inform you to take the medicine.

Mu xuanjing changed his mask and said with Gu Qingci, "I'll go to the branch on my way."

Gu Qingci knew that he had been investigating the death of the third prince, so he nodded, "it's OK. I'm enough to be alone here. The outside is surrounded by three floors inside and three outside. It's very safe."

It is precisely because of this that mu xuanjing left at ease.

As the night grew darker and thicker, Gu Qingci took good care of Princess Chunyao and looked at the door from time to time. She was worried about Mu xuanjing.

After all, this is Nanqiang. Mu xuanjing's sphere of influence does not cover it. Therefore, the branch of the nameless Pavilion here does not have much real power.

Although there is still Zhou Jizong who can help, at this time, because of the matter of Chunyao princess, Zhou Jizong is in a dilemma. How many people can be driven by him?

Then think of the qiliecao powder in the horse farm and the extremely poisonous Princess Chunyao. All these things are like broken pieces. Once they can be put together completely, they are the truth she wants.

Just as Gu Qingci thought about it, there was a door slam outside.

"Miss Gu, Khan asked me to wipe the princess."

It's a maid's voice. The night before yesterday, some maid was ordered to wipe Princess Chunyao's body. Thinking that it has been two days, it's really time to wipe her body. Otherwise, it would be a bad thing to just cover it.

So Gu Qingci said, "come in."

Squeak, the door came, and a maid came in with a basin and a handkerchief.

Gu Qingci was not in the mood to see the maid wipe Princess Chunyao, so he went to one side and looked at the herbs.

Everything went on as usual, but when Gu Qingci was concentrating on grinding ginseng powder, he suddenly thumped.

The voice startled Gu Qingci, and she instantly looked at the direction of the voice, which was the direction of the maid.

"Ouch The maid seemed to be frightened and sat down on the ground, shaking to get the basin, but the basin slipped and clattered.

All of a sudden, the water spray turned out gradually on the maid's white skirt, leaving a light brown water stain.

Gu Qingci thought it was the accident caused by the handmaid's clumsiness. Unexpectedly, at the moment when she just wanted to take back her sight, she saw those pieces of light brown water stains.

What is the water used to wipe Princess Chunyao?!

It seems to have seen Gu Qingci's eyes, and the maid hastily wiped the water on the ground with her handkerchief, as if she were covering it up.

"The maid is clumsy. If she knocks over the water, she will go out and change it."

"Hold on, don't go yet." Gu Qingci walked to her, "there is still water in this basin. It's better to wipe it before you go. If you are clumsy, I'll help you wipe it."With that, Gu Qingci extended his hand to the basin in her hand.

The maid was so scared that she stepped back, "you don't have to take care of this kind of rude work!"

Seeing her so unwilling to cooperate, Gu Qingci frowned, there must be a problem, "put things down, or I will immediately call people in!"

The maid shivered and put the basin on the ground at her feet. "Please, don't call anyone! Don't shout... "

In the middle of her speech, she suddenly froze, her eyes widened, and a steel needle in her neck almost went through her throat.

The blood spurts to Gu Qingci, which makes her subconsciously retreat away. Most of the blood falls in the copper basin in front of her.

With a bang, the maid fell to the ground.

At the same time, the clattering sound from the eaves kept coming. Gu Qingci immediately called out: "come on! Somebody! There are assassins

Shouting, Gu Qingci kicked open the locked window, trying to turn over the eaves from the window.

However, by the time she caught up, there was no one on it, and the messy broken tiles looked like someone was fighting here.

Thinking of the movement just now, it is really a little abnormal, more like a fight between two people!

What the hell is going on!

At this time, all the guards came, but they only saw Gu Qingci standing on the eaves.

Gu Qingci was unwilling to clench his fist, "to the southwest! Go after it

Some of the bodyguards went to the southwest, and more guards were guarding the door of the house for fear that the princess would be hurt again.

Soon Tuo Ba Huan also arrived at the news.

By the time he arrived, the body of the maid had been dragged into the yard, along with the copper basin.

Tuoba Huan was furious, and roared to the commander who had been ordered to keep the princess's house: "can't all three hundred elite soldiers protect just one princess's house?"

All of a sudden, even the tie bodyguard knelt down in the courtyard and pleaded guilty one after another.

Gu Qingci came out of the room and wrung his eyebrows and said, "fortunately, the maid didn't succeed. The princess just dyed the poison on her clothes, which was not a big problem."

Tuoba Huan turns around and looks suspiciously at Gu Qingci
