Miss Six seemed frightened by the scene in front of her and stood up from the couch in a hurry.
Seeing this, the other two women hurriedly stepped forward and one of them held Miss Sixth's hand. The last woman held her chin without mercy and drank a bowl of dark medicine.
Qingguan struggled hard, half of the medicine was poured in, and the other half flowed out from the corners of her mouth.
As soon as the medicine entered her mouth, Qingguan immediately tasted it. The amount of sedative medicine is not large, not enough to make people sleep, but it can make people calm down.
Aunt Tan sneered and said: "Miss Six, this medicine is not poison, but a tonic. From today on, I will feed you a bowl every day until Miss Six..."
Aunt Tan did not explain her words, she just made a dark look and said to Yueniang and Chunni with a sharp look: "Hurry and help your young lady dress up. The princess will see her in half an hour. It wasted time. Please pay attention." The skin of two people.”
As soon as Nanny Tan walked out of the yard, Yueniang and Chunni rushed towards her with tears in their eyes.
"Miss, Miss..."
Qingguan waved her hand and said: "No problem, just a little soothing medicine, wash me up quickly, Chunni will follow me, Yueniang will look after the house."
When Chunni helped the sixth lady to enter, the four rooms of the Gu Mansion were already gathered together, and the waterside pavilion was filled with the lively sounds of warblers and swallows.
According to the rules, when a foreign man is around, the unmarried young lady in the house should avoid suspicion. No matter what, a screen should be put up in the waterside pavilion, but Gu Mansion has never done this.
Qingguan entered the waterside pavilion, and everyone secretly took in a breath of air-conditioning.
The woman in front of her was wearing a new Haitang red shirt, with no hairpins on her head, and a white jade hairpin holding her hair, which instantly outshone everyone else. With such a character, if she wasn't stupid, she would be marrying into a high-ranking family in Beijing, and she would be a stable first wife.
Sitting down, Qingguan stood there in a daze, neither eating nor drinking, her eyes half-closed as if she was sleeping, and her head was shaking from time to time.
Everyone's hearts trembled again, and they looked at the princess from the corner of their eyes.
The princess must have made complete preparations if she dared to bring someone here. I am afraid that the sixth lady has already been given medicine. In this way, the princess is determined to give Miss Six to the wise king.
This child is about to be thirteen. Although he has grown up in stature, he has never even had a cup of sunflower water. It is pitiful, really pitiful. For a moment, everyone looked at Qingguan with sympathy.
Qingguan was too lazy to guess what everyone was thinking, so she only looked at the people at the table from the corner of her eyes while she lowered her head and raised her head.
On the main seat, a man in brocade clothes sits facing south, with a face like a crown of jade. Under his sword-shaped eyebrows, which are neither thick nor light, a pair of narrow eyes are like gurgling spring water, as warm and moist as the spring breeze.
Qingguan quickly lowered his eyes.
Zhao Jingwei, courtesy name Shaoyuan, was the third son of the emperor. His mother was the Yin family, a concubine named imperial concubine. She was the sister of the British duke Yin Jiuling. Concubine Yin is the only woman in the harem who can compete with the queen.
He could read at the age of two, was extremely intelligent, and knew everything about music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. He was supposed to be the emperor's favorite, but he was impeached by the censor because of his young daughter.
Even so, he still relied on Concubine Yin and the British Duke to get along well with the emperor, and his status was second only to King Rui.
Qingguan retracted his peripheral vision and sighed slightly in his heart.
I wonder if the prince, who was only fifteen years old at the time, was involved in the prince's case, and if so, what role he played.
Zhao Jingyan really saw Miss Six's sideways glances and sighs. He raised his eyebrows, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, opened the fan, and shook it a few times, looking elegant and suave.
"Third brother, if you don't go to the bank of Pingjiang River, you won't know the goodness of Jiangnan. My eighth brother will be the host tonight, please have a good time, third brother."
Zhao Jingwei glanced at the young lady's table and said with a straight face: "My father told me before he came here that he should cultivate his mind and cultivate his character. He should not go to Fireworks Alley and Willow Land again."
Zhao Jingyan followed his gaze and glanced at the table, disapprovingly saying: "It's just fun, third brother is so boring."
After saying that, Zhao Jingyan stood up, put down her robe, and walked out.
"Eighth brother, where are you going?"
"I'm going to meet my cousin by the Pingjiang River. This family banquet in the Gu family is so boring. It's better to hold a woman and drink flower wine."
Also accompanying the Xian Wang to Jiangnan this time was the young grandson of the Jiang family, Jiang Hongwen. This son was proficient in etiquette, music, archery, and calligraphy. He was good at eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. He and King Shou were called Buli Tuo, and Tuo Buli was called Tuo Buli. They were also called the two hegemons in the capital.
No, as soon as Jiang Hongwen entered Suzhou Prefecture, he went straight to the bank of Pingjiang River to have fun. He said that he was suffocated along the way and needed to vent his anger in order to reconcile yin and yang.
Master Gu was about to plead guilty, but he saw the Xian Wang's gaze falling on Liu Yatou as if there was no trace. He felt slightly happy and hurriedly glanced at his son.
Gu Songtao said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the house has been cleaned. Why don't we just go down here..."
"No need, I live in the palace."
Zhao Jingwei stood up immediately and nodded gently to the princess: "I have official business, so I will take the first step."
Princess Huayang did not dare to take advantage of her in front of him. After all, there was a favored Concubine Yin behind the wise king. She was about to get up to see him off, but the wise king had already left with his entourage.
The feast ended in a hurry after only half a cup of tea. The wise king did not even move his chopsticks and only drank a cup of wine.
The entire Gu family was busy for ten days, spending a lot of manpower and material resources to welcome Prince Xian into the palace. Who would have expected that it would end like this, Mr. Gu couldn't bear to look at his old face and left hastily.
As soon as Mr. Gu left, the four rooms of the Gu family were all gone with a roar. Only the sixth lady was still sitting on the table with her head down in a daze.
It wasn't that Qingguan refused to move, but that the medicine was so strong that he was so sleepy that he couldn't even move forward. Chunni helped her twice, but she didn't move, and she was secretly worried.
Gu Qingzhi left and came back: "Come on, I'll help you help Sixth Sister back."
Chunni was moved in her heart, "Thank you, Miss Second."
The maid behind Gu Qingzhi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Second Miss, let the slaves come."
"No, just follow me from a distance."
They were speechless all the way. When they reached the entrance of the courtyard, Gu Qingzhi suddenly whispered: "Chunni, be careful, Princess. If it's not possible, let Yueniang take your young lady and run away."
After saying that, Gu Qingzhi took out a purse from her arms: "I have saved this for many years. You can keep it for your lady."
Qingguan still had a trace of clear consciousness. She heard these words clearly and sighed in her heart, Second Sister, just with these few words of yours, I, Gu Qingguan, will definitely protect you in the future.
When Qingguan Youyou woke up, it was already dark.
"Yue Niang, what time is it?"
"Back to Miss, it's the second update."
Second update
Unexpectedly, this bowl of soothing medicine had such great staying power. Qingguan stroked her dizzy head and said, "It's too late to go to the free clinic."
"My slave sent a message to Chen Ping early. Miss, just feel at ease."
Qingguan glanced at Yueniang approvingly, "After I fall asleep, will anyone come to our courtyard?"
"Mother Tan, Aunt Liu came over to take a look."
Yueniang lit the candle, helped the young lady up, picked up the warm tea that had been prepared, and fed it to the young lady.
Qingguan drank it in one gulp and looked around the room, "Where is Chunni?"
"This girl is looking through medical books in that room, saying she wants to find an antidote for the young lady."
Qingguan smiled: "Let her come back quickly. The antidote to this tranquilizer is in my brain."
As soon as he finished speaking, the curtain was lifted, and Chunni entered the room with a pouted mouth: "Miss, why don't you use the antidote?"
"Silly girl, first of all, this medicine is harmless. Secondly, I want to see the reaction of everyone in the Gu family."
Of course, she also wanted to see what the wise king's attitude was towards the Gu family.
Sure enough, as she expected, King Xian was quite indifferent to Gu Mansion. After all, he was not the same person.
Chunni Kuairen said quickly: "Except for the second young lady, everyone else is dead, just pretending to be invisible. Our good second master didn't even frown."
Qingguan looked a little dazed as she thought about her second sister's words.
"Miss, please hurry up and think of something. If you don't, it will be too late. How about I spread poison into the well and kill the evil ones first?"
"If Miss can't do it, Yue Niang can take Miss and escape. Anyway, we have plenty of money."
Qingguan came back to his senses, raised his smiling face, and blinked at the two of them: "Why are you so anxious? I'll think about it after I fill my stomach."
"Miss, you still have time to eat. I'm so anxious."
"Chunni, the sky won't fall. Your lady doesn't even have lunch, she's hungry!"
"Ah, miss, you haven't had your lunch yet. I'll heat it up soon."
Chunni opened the curtain and went out, hurriedly running to the kitchen without paying attention to the two dark shadows flashing past in the yard.
Two black figures jumped up to the wall, fell steadily, and got into the carriage one after another.
Zhao Jingyan put her hands behind her head, lay on her back in the car, raised her eyebrows and said, "Cousin, I am still alive today, thanks to Miss Six's mercy."
The person opposite is seven feet tall and thin. He wears a purple gown with green embroidery and a bright silk-covered milky white blouse. With eyes as cold as stars and eyebrows as black as paint, he looks like a gentle and gentlemanly scholar, with no trace of the devil in troubled times at all.
I saw him pouring a cup of warm tea, drinking it in one gulp, and said calmly: "You look good, what are your plans?"
Zhao Jingyan raised her body and looked directly at him. After a moment, she stopped laughing and said, "I plan to take a look before talking."
Jiang Hongwen's expression changed, as if he didn't believe it. He and Zhao Jingyan grew up wearing a pair of crotchless pants, and they were aware of each other's belly.
Zhao Jingyan waved her hand and said: "Let's not talk about her first. Let me ask you, why did you come with the third child on this trip?"
Jiang Hongwen said with horror: "According to the order of our ancestors."
"What are you doing here?"
"Come to Suzhou Mansion to look for flowers and willows."
Zhao Jingyan glanced at him sideways and said calmly: "Seriously."
Jiang Hongwen patted his shoulder and stroked his forehead, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "I injured someone in Beijing and came to Jiangnan to avoid the limelight."
Zhao Jingyan was not angry but happy. She looked like she was not tired of watching the excitement: "Speak quickly, tell me quickly, who was injured?"
"Qin Yukun, the grandson of the governor of the country."
Jiang Hongwen chuckled twice, his face as gentle and elegant as ever.
When Zhao Jingyan heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded.
