Gu Qingguan raised his eyes, his eyebrows suddenly twisted into a ball, secretly thinking something was wrong.
King Shou's face, which was originally fairer than a woman's, was faintly tinged with cyan. Upon closer inspection, there was still a bit of black, and his red and thin lips had turned black and purple. If it weren't for his handsome appearance, I would have thought he had seen a ghost.
The strange thing is that he has been hiding in Wangyue Pavilion for the past two days because he was poisoned.
Zhao Jingyan's mouth twitched as she looked him over.
As the saying goes, the past cannot be looked back on.
He was attacked that night, but he narrowly escaped defeat and returned to Gu Mansion for a good night's sleep. Unexpectedly, when I woke up and looked in the mirror, I found that the person in the mirror looked like this.
Zhao Jingyan was so angry that she beat her chest and stamped her feet, and the hair all over her body exploded. Only then did he realize that the actress was poisonous.
He forced a smile, raised his eyebrows and said, "Doctor Jin, we meet again."
Gu Qingguan was calculating quickly in his mind, but his eyes were clear, and he said calmly: "You have been poisoned. The poison has been poisoned for two days, but it has not entered the heart. This poison is called Aconitum. If it comes one day later, the gods and Buddhas will not be able to save you."
Zhao Jingyan quickly lowered his eyes, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and when he raised them, he saw a clear sky.
"Doctor Jin is indeed a miraculous doctor. You don't need to look, hear or ask anything to know what kind of poison he has. I admire him so much that I also ask Dr. Jin to save him."
Gu Qingguan glanced at him and said, "My rules don't need to be explained in detail. I wonder if King Shou is mentally prepared."
Zhao Jingyan opened her fan, her eyes moving: "Doctor Jin, is this still the request?"
"That's right."
Zhao Jingyan sighed softly and said: "It's not that I don't want to accept it, it's just a matter of time... Doctor Jin, can you give me a time limit?"
Gu Qingguan calculated the time and said: "Within two years."
Zhao Jingyan smiled and suddenly asked: "What is the deep hatred between Doctor Jin and the Gu family? What is the so-called uprooting? Does it mean that there is no grass growing and the knife falls with the hand, or..."
This guy is really smart, and he is testing him bit by bit. If I say that not a blade of grass grows, he will follow this and send someone to investigate the grudges Gu's family has had over the years, but he can narrow down the scope.
Gu Qingguan sneered: "Prince Shou, you ask too many questions."
"Hey... you have to ask clearly. If you really let me do such a heinous thing, I would rather die resolutely than help others do evil."
What beautiful and majestic words.
Gu Qingguan lowered his eyes and said: "As long as the Gu family loses both fame and fortune and is completely defeated, I don't want to take anyone's head."
"Deal! As for the Qingfengtang matter... can Dr. Jin keep his word? Also, this king's inhumane disease..."
Gu Qingguan said unhurriedly: "I agree to all the requests one by one. It's just that it's not rude to come back and not return. The prince has asked for too much, so he still wants to do something for me."
One thing has to be done, two things have to be done, the meat is on the chopping board, do you still have a choice
Zhao Jingyan said nonchalantly: "Tell me and listen."
"The mother and girls of Wanhualou are really involved. I want to ask the prince to show favoritism and let them live."
Zhao Jingyan looked deeply at the person in front of him, only to feel that there was an indescribable meaning in this person, which made him want to find out.
He was born in the imperial palace, the most wealthy place in the world. He had three thousand women in the harem, all of whom were fat and thin. He had never seen any kind of woman. However, the woman in front of him, who was completely covered with only her eyes exposed, made him feel an inexplicable throbbing in his heart.
Four words even came to his mind: Stunning beauty.
He shouted two words without hesitation: "Deal!"
"Take off your clothes!" Gu Qingwan said calmly.
Zhao Jingyan was startled and said in confusion: "Doctor Jin doesn't need me to create a certificate or write anything. What if I turn my back and refuse to admit my debt?"
Gu Qingguan has stood up, "Your Majesty, I can trust your words. Come in with me."
Zhao Jingyan put away her fan, smiled lazily, and said to herself: "When did I have an honest face?"
Zhao Jingyan followed her inside and saw her slap her hands twice, and two maids came out from nowhere and lit candles one by one.
Upon closer inspection, there were actually hundreds of them.
Just when he was curious, the maids suddenly pulled the curtains, revealing huge bronze mirrors on the left and right walls. Suddenly the room was as bright as day, and the brightest light was concentrated on a three-foot-square mirror in the center of the room. wooden bed.
He was startled, and his eyes were thoughtful.
"Take off your clothes, leaving only your underwear." Gu Qingguan ordered without letting him think about it.
Zhao Jingyan looked at the bed, then at her body, hesitatingly making no move.
A maidservant said crisply: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this sheet is for one person only and is very clean."
Zhao Jingyan glanced at her suspiciously, quickly took off her coat, and lay down as instructed.
Hey, three people, six pairs of eyes, I seem a little shy!
Zhao Jingyan cursed in her heart. I wonder if Doctor Jin would secretly sigh, this prince is really in good shape? Will her covered face blush from this, or will she take the opportunity to sneak a peek
That’s all, that’s all, I’ll suffer a little loss.
How could Gu Qingwan know what Prince Shou was thinking? She raised her eyes lightly and raised the needle with her hand very quickly.
When Zhao Jingyan returned to his original position, his body was covered with needles, and the shock in his eyes was revealed without concealment.
Little did he know that executing this set of needles requires accurate eyes, accurate hands, and a lot of effort.
Gu Qingguan was sweating profusely and swaying slightly. He took the towel handed by the maid, wiped it and said: "This injection will take seven days. Go back and soak it with herbs for another seven days, and the root will be cut off. After half a cup of tea, you two Remove the needle for him."
After that, he walked out without looking back.
"Why-"
Zhao Jingyan was about to call out.
"You can't talk, you can't have luck, or you will suffer the consequences."
Zhao Jingyan watched the black clothes disappear in her eyes quietly, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and a faint smile overflowed from the corners of her eyes.
It seems that this trip to Jiangnan is getting more and more interesting. He wanted to see Dun. Doctor Jin took off his black robe and saw that he was the rich daughter of the He family.
When Gu Qingwan returned to Gu Mansion, it was already dark.
Today was half an hour later than before. She was so exhausted that she didn't even bother to take a bath anymore and fell asleep on the bed with her clothes on.
Yueniang and Chunni felt distressed for their lives. One of them fetched water, and the other gently took off the young lady's clothes, twisted a hot towel and wiped her body carefully.
Just like this, Qingguan didn't wake up. After sitting there, one of them went to the entrance of the courtyard, and the other stood guard in the outer room to prevent anyone from suddenly breaking in and disturbing the young lady.
In Wangyue Pavilion, Zhao Jingyan soaked in the potion and sighed comfortably.
"Master, did you agree?"
"If I don't agree, you will have no choice but to carry my body back to the capital."
Zhao Jingyan said angrily: "By the way, has the letter to Beijing been delivered? I have been poisoned. I must tell my father about this pain."
"Master, if everything goes well, we should arrive in three days."
Zhao Jingyan sneered, took off the hosta on her head, flicked it with her hand, and broke it into several pieces effortlessly.
"Tell me, who is it that wants to take my life, and why do you want to poison me?"
A Li said with a sullen face: "The emperor raised eight princes in total. The prince was deposed and placed under house arrest. It can't be him. Of the remaining six, only King Rui and King Xian are the most powerful to sit on that chair, so most of these two ”
Zhao Jingyan said angrily: "I have fled far away from the south of the Yangtze River, but they still don't let me go. This life is so damn sad. I have to force this king to take action."
"So the prince agreed to take care of the Gu family?" A Li hit the nail on the head.
Zhao Jingyan sighed sadly and said: "Ah Li, as a human being, why don't you be so smart? You are so smart, it makes your master look stupid."
A Li smiled slightly and said nothing. Xindao and Wang Ye are next to you, a fox. No matter how stupid A Li is, he has to learn to be smart.
"Come on, take care of the seventh and eighth aunts of the Gu family for me. Look at where the four meridians and eight meridians lead. I can't live up to Doctor Jin's love for me."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
A Li quickly turned around and went out.
Zhao Jingyan slowly closed her eyes.
Through the old King of Qi, the Gu Mansion has attached itself to his second brother, King Rui, and has become a watchdog of Prince Rui's Mansion. So why not follow Doctor Jin's wishes and pull out this dog tooth first to explore his second brother and his father? Let’s talk about the depth.
Furthermore, the 20% profit from so many shops in Qingfengtang South and Zhili North is really a big temptation. If he has this money... then...
A faint smile appeared on Zhao Jingyan's lips. Hey, it seems that you have to do this thing often, otherwise you will be struck by lightning.
Of course, if you can take Dr. Jin as your own... Wow haha... This is really a wonderful idea.
"Ali, Ali!"
A Li returned in a hurry.
"What are your orders?"
"The order is passed down. In five days, I will hold a lotus appreciation banquet at the Gu Mansion. All the women from the Fangao family who are over ten years old and under fourteen years old, regardless of their direct concubines, have sent a message there. I want to have these. Among women, choose a concubine for yourself.”
"Master, there are already eighteen concubines in the mansion. If you choose any more... I'm afraid you won't be able to make ends meet."
"Shut up, if I don't find a reason, how can I find the golden doctor? Go quickly!"
"Sir, Miss Six in the Gu family's backyard, would you like to..."
Zhao Jingyan had goosebumps all over her body and roared: "A Li, if you dare to invite her here, I will let Thunder God strike you."
A Li ground his bad teeth and did not dare to say a word, so he could only hang his head.
"Oh, by the way, take my invitation and send a message to Magistrate Li. The girls in Wanhua Tower are innocent, so let them go."
"Master—" A Li almost stared out of his eyes.
"Why are you shouting? This is what the golden doctor forced me to do. Do I have a choice?"
As soon as the news came out that King Shou was going to entertain a noble lady from Suzhou Prefecture, the whole city of Suzhou Prefecture was in a state of shock.
Ladies and ladies from all over the country, regardless of the scorching heat, filed out. The rouge shop, embroidery shop, and jewelry pavilion were overcrowded. For a while, there was a bit of Luoyang's expensive paper smell.
The backyard of Gu Mansion.
Aunt Liu called her daughter Gu Qingyun to her side.
"My son, whether aunt can turn over depends on your ability, my daughter. The longevity king is in our house, and you can't let others take the lead. No matter what method you use, aunt, you must get into the longevity king. "
