Qingguan thought for a while and found that there would be no other people except Liu Zhaoyu.
Just what is he here to do
Liu Zhaoyu took a sip of tea, then stood up and looked at the furnishings in the flower hall. After looking at them for a while, he saw nothing special before sitting back down.
After a moment, Qingguan and two maids were seen entering the flower hall. Liu Zhaoyu came forward to greet her and said with a playful smile: "Qingguan, you came uninvited. You won't kick me out."
"I want to rush."
"Ah?" Liu Zhaoyu was stunned.
"I'm afraid you'll be disgraced and cry at the gate of Qingfu." Qingguan sat down and took the tea from Chunni.
Liu Zhaoyu laughed and raised his thumb towards Qingguan, "I have it for you."
Qingguan put down the teacup, "Come on, what do you want from me? Did Dr. Zhang ask you to be a lobbyist?"
"clever!"
Liu Zhaoyu raised his thumb that he was about to put down again, "You left me guessing."
It turned out that just a few hours after Qingguan left the Taiyuan Hospital, the queen called Zhang Hua into the palace and didn't know what she said. When Zhang Hua came back, she called Liu Zhaoyu to her side, and by implication, she coaxed Gu Qingwan back to the Taiyuan Hospital. Hospital.
"That's it, here I come."
Qingguan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I asked you to come here openly, but secretly, you may hate me. Doctor Liu, do you think he will make a little person and poke a few needles into my body?"
"It's hard to say. With his temperament, I'm afraid he will."
Liu Zhaoyu didn't have the slightest fondness for Zhang Hua. If he hadn't taken care of the family elders, he would have left long ago.
"So, you have to be more careful in the future. Keep an eye on everything and don't let him find out what's wrong. This old fox is as big-hearted as a woman. There are countless people in his hands."
Qingguan's heart moved and he asked tentatively: "Is it the same for Dr. Cao?"
Liu Zhaoyu didn't want her to ask this question suddenly, so he chuckled twice and said, "Well... I don't know."
Qingguan saw his eyes flickering and knew that what he was telling was not the truth. His eyes flashed and he said, "Then who are the people you said were in his hands?"
Liu Zhaoyu took a deep look at Qingguan and said, "Gu Qingguan, you are still young and have not been here for a long time. There are some things you should not ask. We are all people begging for food at the hands of others. It is important to survive."
Qingguan smiled and said, "It sounds like you are so old. Compared to me, you are only a few years older."
Liu Zhaoyu touched his face and returned to his original smile, "So, I still look down upon you."
"Well, very underestimating, he will be sixteen years old."
The two went back and forth and joked around, but no one seemed to take what they just said to heart.
After finishing the cup of tea, Liu Zhaoyu stood up and said, "Come on, I've heard what you said and tasted the tea. It's time to go."
Qing Guan also stood up and said, "For the sake of Dr. Liu's hard work, how about changing the five days of self-examination to three days?"
Liu Zhaoyu smiled knowingly, "It seems that I am still a bit shy in front of Dr. Gu and my son. Not bad, not bad."
Qingguan joked: "Who makes Dr. Liu's face look so young?"
"Hahaha... interesting."
Liu Zhaoyu stepped out of the threshold, but turned back, "Gu Qingwan, don't guard against gentlemen, but against villains. In the Imperial Hospital of the Zhou Dynasty, the only ones who can be called gentlemen are your grandfather and Mr. Cao."
Qingguan's body trembled, and a light flashed in his eyes.
"Don't give it away, I know the way."
Liu Zhaoyu turned his back and waved to her.
The corners of Qingguan's mouth were slightly moist, and she said to Yueniang at the door: "Zi Ang returns home and asks him to come see me."
Not three minutes later, the British Duke's carriage stopped at the corner gate, and all the maids and ladies came forward, helped the madam and young lady down, and walked in surrounded by them.
Yin Lifeng was last. When he saw Xiao Zhong winking at him, he turned around and left everyone's sight.
Xiao Zhong stepped forward and whispered, and Yin Lifeng looked shocked.
"Can you see clearly?"
"Hui Shizi, everything is clear. Enter through the back door of the Su Mansion and come out an hour later. The Third Master personally put the person in the car, and then the two of them separated."
Yin Lifeng took a deep breath, "Have you ever asked what kind of disease Mrs. Ye has?"
"I heard that there is something wrong with him all over his body."
"Understood, this matter cannot be brought to justice."
Yin Lifeng turned around and walked away. After walking a few steps, he stopped again. His handsome face was half hidden under the trees and half illuminated by the sun, looking a little uncertain.
After meeting each other at the sesame cake stall, for some reason, those black and white eyes always lingered in front of me and couldn't go away.
His mind was a little out of control, always thinking about seeing her again, but his reason told him that this woman already belonged to him, and if he was a gentleman, he should stay away.
Unfortunately, he has never been a gentleman.
Yin Lifeng took a deep breath and said loudly: "Prepare your horse."
"The prince has just come back. Madam, the young lady is still waiting for the prince..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Just tell Madam that I will go to Prince Xian's Mansion to see my eldest sister."
"yes."
In Prince Xian's Mansion, Princess Yin Qiuling was planning the expenses in the mansion. When she saw her brother coming, she couldn't help but welcome him out.
"What kind of wind brought you here?"
Yin Lifeng saluted the eldest sister and said with a smile: "I haven't seen my sister for a long time. Come and have a look."
Yin Qiuling stroked his hand and looked around. Seeing his rosy face, she asked about things at home.
Yin Lifeng picked some happy events and told them one by one.
After hearing this, Yin Qiuling smiled and ordered someone to invite the prince to come over to accompany him. Unfortunately, the wise prince went out to entertain.
She thought for a moment and then ordered the maid to put the food and wine in her room. The two siblings ate while talking to each other.
Yin Lifeng had something on his mind, so he didn't talk as much as before, and his face looked a little gloomy.
Yin Qiuling liked this younger brother very much. When he was in his boudoir, he often taught him some poems and songs, so he knew his words and deeds very well.
"Did your brother encounter any difficulties?"
Yin Lifeng shook his head, drank a few more glasses of wine, and said, "Sister, do you still remember Qian Ziqi?"
Yin Qiuling's heart pounded when she heard it, and she shouted: "You are so drunk that you even mentioned her!"
Yin Lifeng held the wine cup and glanced at the window sill, "Sister, I often think of her."
Yin Qiuling didn't want him to admit it happily, so she was speechless.
Unexpectedly, he then said, "Sister, I seem to have fallen in love with another woman."
"who is it?"
"Gu Qingwan!"
Yin Qiuling was stunned and his expression suddenly changed.
Yin Lifeng's eyes were slightly filled with pain, and he raised the corner of his mouth into a chuckle, and said in a long and drawn-out voice, "Eldest sister... why do all the women I like get engaged early?"
"Shut up!"
Yin Qiuling was shocked, took the cup from his hand, and said sternly: "Stop talking nonsense, that's not someone you should think about."
Yin Lili looked at her like she was facing a formidable enemy and laughed out loud, "Eldest sister, what are you afraid of? I won't do anything random."
Yin Qiuling glanced back hard, her chest heaving with anger. She wanted to scold but couldn't bear it, but if she didn't, she felt angry.
"Sister, why do you always worry about things you can't get in your entire life? Isn't that stupid!"
There was helplessness in his words, and he lost his usual high-spirited look. The candlelight fell on him. Although he was still heroic, there was a bit of alienation and vicissitudes of life.
Yin Qiuling was stunned.
In the blink of an eye, after a few glasses of wine, Yin Lifeng simply took his eldest sister's hand, put it on his face, and rubbed it.
"Eldest sister, she lied to me, but I can't hate her. The two sisters are so similar, especially their eyes... Even their habits... are the same. She likes to eat sesame cakes, and she also likes to eat... "
The words were intermittent, but when Yin Qiuling heard them, he felt stuffy in his heart.
This brother of hers was young and successful, romantic and wealthy, and was favored by thousands of people. However, he was extremely unsatisfied in love affairs and always harbored fantasies about those who should not belong to him.
"Sister, why am I always half a step behind others? It was the case before and it is still the case now."
The beard on the sideburns made his hands sting a little. Yin Qiuling felt weak and couldn't say a word.
Moon on treetops.
Cao Ziang hurriedly walked into Qingguan's courtyard, only to see the girl standing under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree with a weak shoulder, looking at him with a smile.
"Tongrentang is very busy today, so I'm late coming back."
"Are you ready for dinner?"
"Just used it."
Qingguan pointed to the small hexagonal table under the tree, "Tea can help digestion, so come and have a cup of tea with me."
With two cups of tea and several plates of tea fruits, Cao Ziang raised his eyes and said with a smile: "Okay."
After half a cup of tea, Cao Ziang took the initiative to speak, "I heard that you didn't go to the Tai Hospital today."
Qingguan nodded, "I had a quarrel with Zhang Hua, and I'm just thinking about it behind closed doors."
Cao Ziang turned his face to look at her. His fair face was covered with a halo of light under the lantern, and the world seemed to be still.
Cao Ziang suddenly felt his heart beating faster and his breathing quickening. He gritted his teeth and said, "The only person who dares to quarrel with Zhang Hua is you, Qingwan."
Gu Qingguan raised his eyes and said softly: "What if I said it was intentional?"
"Qingwan?" Cao Ziang called softly.
"Zi Ang, I entered Tai Hospital not only for the Qian family, but also for the Cao family."
The understatement shocked Cao Ziang, but before he could react, Qingguan said again: "In the past, I never asked you why Dr. Cao was imprisoned, but now you are willing to tell me."
Cao Ziang's heart felt like a drum, like thunder. He looked at her intently, his eyes unblinking.
"Why, my face is blooming." Qingguan made a joke that was not very funny.
Cao Ziang remained silent. Just when Qingguan sighed helplessly, he suddenly stood up, put down his robe, and knelt down on the ground.
"What is this doing?"
Cao Ziang kowtowed three times.
She didn't ask before because she didn't have the ability; if she asks now, it means she has to stand up for the Cao family. He is not a fool, he hears clearly, sees clearly, and understands everything in his heart.
Qingguan didn't move, just sat firmly, receiving three blows from him.
"This head was knocked by the Cao family."
Qingguan smiled and said, "I just wanted to ask, since you guys are knocking each other's heads, I have to take care of the Cao family's affairs, which is quite stressful. Anyway, let's talk about what's going on."
Cao Ziang stood up and sat down. He felt his chest was filled with panic and drank the remaining half of the tea in one breath.
Qingguan didn't rush, there was some pain hidden in the corner. Once he opened it again, it would be covered in blood. He needed time to sort it out. After drinking the tea, Yueniang added a new one. At this moment, Cao Ziang opened his mouth.
