First Lady of the Crown Prince Chapter 362

Chapter 362 Breaking through the truth (two more)

A person can conceal one's own skill, but cannot conceal one's own illness. Gu Jiao gave Princess Jing a pulse, and found that she was not a problem except for some weakness.

In other words, her condition is far from the point where she needs to seek medicine from a Yan Guo pharmacist.

I can't always tell that she went to talk to someone.

Gu Changqing once said that the pharmacist is withdrawn and solitary. He never interacts with people, except for selling medicine.

So Princess Jing must be going to buy medicine today.

Madam Cai brought a plate of freshly cut fruits into the house, and Gu Jiao looked at her: "Mrs. Cai, you have not looked so good lately. Are you uncomfortable? I'll show you too. "

Cai's grandmother was taken aback: "Ah, this...this..."

"Let's take a look." The emperor said to Madam Cai.

"Hey." Madam Cai looked at Concubine Jing without knowing it. Her expression was as usual, Madam Cai had to walk over and let Gu Jiao take her pulse.

To be honest, Madam Cai's body is really not so good recently. When Gu Jiao sees that she is ill and wants to check her pulse, she is happy in her heart.

Just thinking that Gu Jiao was the queen mother, she hesitated again. Now it's all right, the emperor ordered.

"Mother Cai is overworked, and she has been very angry recently."

"It's a little bit angry, and my tongue is sore!"

"I'll get you some medicine to eat and it's okay." Gu Jiao turned and opened the small medicine box, planning to get some bezoar detoxification pills, but it didn't happen.

Are you still picky about patients?

You have a temper!

A cold wind blows through, and the small medicine box is as quiet as a chicken.

Gu Jiao closed the box, coughed lightly, and said, "The medicine is used up, it's okay. I will prescribe a prescription. The same goes for Mother Cai to follow the prescription to grab the medicine."

Gu Jiao prescribed a recipe to clear the fire and handed it to Madam Cai.

Madam Cai looked at the calligraphy that was so cute that she almost defected from her face with a pair of eyebrows in fright!

The confidant Gu Jiao next to Princess Jing didn't see a few of them. Gu Jiao didn't dare to say that Princess Jing was not asking for medicine for anyone else.

Perhaps it is for Long Yingwei? Or maybe it's for someone else.

However, there is another possibility behind the request for medicine, that is, the medicine that Mrs. Jing asks for is not necessarily used to cure people, but can also be used to harm people.

Gu Jiao stayed in Antang and had a fast meal.

Considering the unknown medicine, Gu Jiao paid special attention when eating. She was sure that there was no poison in the food.

After eating, Gu Jiao didn't mean to leave by herself. The emperor didn't want to leave Gu Jiao to talk to Concubine Jing, and after a few greetings, he walked out of the temple with Gu Jiao.

The emperor is very happy.

The little genius doctor still had him in his heart, and he came to check the pulse of his mother and concubine for him.

He couldn't hide his smile and looked at Gu Jiao: “I came here with a box of new tribute...”

Before he finished speaking, Gu Jiao walked away coldly.

Emperor: "..."

Gonggong Wei replied: "The minion is going to send off Girl Gu."

Just now, Gu Jiao glanced at him, and he felt that Gu Jiao had something to say to him.

The emperor did not object, Wei Gonggong followed Gu Jiao in a hurry, "Girl Gu!"

Gu Jiao looked around vigilantly, making sure that no one was watching, and said to him: "Recently, you should pay special attention to the food in Huaqing Palace. Don't eat anything sent by anyone outside Huaqing Palace, even if the concubine sent it. No way."

"Why is this?" Wei Gonggong asked puzzledly.

"Nothing." Gu Jiaoyun said calmly, "Just in case the assassin will poison your Majesty."

Gonggong Wei laughed and said, "Do you want to guard against the concubine empress?"

Gu Jiao sternly said: "She must be especially guarded!"

Duke Wei was taken aback.

Gu Jiao calmly said: "She is the person your Majesty trusts most. If someone hacks in the food she sends, you say, is it impossible to guard against?"

Duke Wei thought of the jujube cakes sent by the little nun next to Princess Jing this morning. His Majesty ate it without saying a word. He squeezed his cold sweat severely.

Due to the fact that the jujube cake is non-toxic, if there is, then your majesty...

Grandpa Wei was very frightened, and promised quickly: "The slave knows, the slave will be on guard, and will never let your majesty eat anything outside the Huaqing Palace!"

Gu Jiao didn't remind her aunt that Concubine Jing's hand could not reach Renshou Palace.

Gu Jiao said again: "Just pay attention to this matter yourself, don't tell your majesty, so as not to create rifts."

"The minion understands." Wei Gong justified, "The minion arranged a carriage to take Miss Gu back."

"it is good."

Gu Jiao got in the carriage back to Bishui Hutong, while Gonggong Wei turned back to Huaqing Palace.

As soon as he arrived at the door of Huaqing Palace, he ran into Mother Cai.

Mother Cai came here too, and greeted him with a smile: "Duke Wei!"

Grandpa Wei smiled politely: "Grandma Cai, did the concubine empress let you come? Did the concubine empress have any instructions?"

Mama Cai handed the food box forward: "Your Majesty didn't eat much during dinner. The Toffee Empress was worried that the food would not suit your Majesty's appetite, so I asked her to send her white fungus soup made by herself."

Grandpa Wei took the food box and said: "The concubine empress has worked hard, and she is still recovering from her wounds, so don't be the chef. Your Majesty should be worried about her.

Madam Cai sighed: "I said the same, but Niangniang didn't listen. Grandpa Wei also knew that there were only her Majesty and Princess Ning'an on her knees. Princess Ning'an married away from the Great Wall, and only her Majesty was beside her. Why does this make her wrong with her Majesty? The former mother lived outside the palace and couldn't help herself. Now that she has come back, she should be able to make up for the yearning for her majesty."

Grandpa Wei also sighed: "Even so, you still have to persuade the concubine."

Madam Cai responded: "I know, I will. Duke Wei quickly take the white fungus soup to his majesty. I will not disturb Duke Wei. The concubine lady is still waiting for me to serve."

Duke Wei nodded: "Mother Cai, go slowly."

"Ah, I almost forgot." Mother Cai just walked a few steps, then folded back, took out a pack of silver from her wide sleeve and handed it to Grandpa Wei.

Duke Wei hurriedly raised his hand to block: "What is this!"

Mother Cai said: "The little bit of the concubine empress, Wei Gonggong just accept it."

Wei Gonggong repeatedly refused: "Where can I collect the money from the concubine empress?"

Madam Cai squeezed into her arms: "Accept it, don't accept it, but I'm going to go back and return to the concubine empress!"

After Mother Cai left, Grandpa Wei took the food box to His Majesty's bedroom.

If in the past, he would have given the white fungus soup to His Majesty, but today...

The little genius doctor's instructions flashed in his mind, and he suddenly hesitated.

"How about I try it first? Try a poison?"

Grandpa Wei took a spoonful of white fungus soup, and took a sip as if he was dead.

After a while, he touched his heart.

He is still alive, there is no problem.

This white fungus soup should be something for your majesty to eat, right?

He took a few steps, sighed, and went to the small kitchen to exchange a bowl of white fungus soup boiled at Huaqing Palace and sent it to the emperor.

Gu Jiao examined the pulse of Concubine Jing and confiscated the consultation fee. As a thank you, the emperor asked Wei Gonggong to give Gu Jiao a piece of his own calligraphy the next day.

The writing of the little genius doctor was not very beautiful, so the emperor wrote a copybook overnight, letting the little genius doctor copy it, and covered it with the emperor's jade seal.

This is much more precious than the original imperial pen, and the emperor thought that the little doctor would like it.

As a result, when the little genius saw the copybook, his face went black all of a sudden.

What kind of hatred did the emperor have with her?

She just shook his face, is it necessary to retaliate against her like this?

Gu Jiao scratched her head irritably, and punched the copybook with a fist.

Duke Wei was shocked!

"Sister! We are back!"

is the voice of Gu Xiaoshun.

Gu Jiao closed her temper for a second, stood up and walked towards the door.

Gu Xiaoshun jumped off the carriage carrying large and small bags, and Gu Yan also jumped off.

Yes, he can jump now.

This is a new carriage bought by Grandpa Uncle, and the coachman is Gu Yan's dark guard.

Behind the two-person carriage, they followed another carriage, looking a little strange.

A middle-aged man in a gray robe got out of the carriage, then he opened the curtain and helped a woman in a white tunic skirt out of the carriage.

The woman is graceful and light, with a pair of jade hands as beautiful as jade carvings.

Her dress is not gorgeous, and she has a simple hair bun on her head. The only headdress is a wooden hairpin.

She wore a veil, showing only a smooth and full forehead and a pair of quiet and wise eyes.

"It's Master and Madam." Gu Yan said to Gu Jiao.

This is the first time Gu Jiao has seen the master and the wife of her two younger brothers. She knew that one of them was Master Lu and the other was Nan Xiang.

Master Lu looks rather ordinary, but Nanxiang is a bit amazing. Her gestures reveal the atmosphere of a celebrity, but she does not lose the heroic spirit of the children of the world.

The two came to Gu Jiao.

Nan Xiang smiled and said, "You are Xiaoshun and Ayan's sister, right? My name is Nanxiang." She took Master Lu's hand, "This is my father-in-law, whose surname is Lu. If you don't dislike him, call him Lu Dazhuang. It's good."

Gu Jiao: "..."

A few people entered the house.

Gu Jiao introduced Master Lu, Nan Xiang and Duke Wei.

"Hello, Duke Wei." Nan Xiang greeted with a smile.

Duke Wei looked at Nan Xiang, somehow, he always felt that these eyes were a bit familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

Yao and Fang Nuo went for a walk in the orchard. They were not at home and Xiaojingkong went out to play. Xiao Liulang and Lao Jijiu were working overtime at the Hanlin Yuan and Guozijian.

Gu Jiao invited the people to the hall.

The big bags and small bags in Gu Xiaoshun's hands were given by Master Lu and Nan Xiang. Gu Jiao lived for two lifetimes. She only saw students give gifts to teachers, and the teacher gave them to students for the first time.

Gu Xiaoshun sat beside Nanxiang.

Nan Xiang smiled at Gu Jiao, and said, “It's true that I'm here to discuss something with Miss Gu.”

"What's the matter?" Gu Jiao asked.

Nanxiang touched Gu Xiaoshun's head: "I like Xiaoshun too much. I want to accept Xiaoshun as a righteous son. I wonder if Miss Gu can agree? Don't get me wrong, Miss Gu. I don't like Ayan, but Ayan has parents. By my side, I was inconvenient to take away my son. I have already learned about Xiaoshun's situation. His parents are not in the capital."

She said this euphemistically. What does it mean that parents are not in the capital? Gu Xiaoshun's parents don't want Gu Xiaoshun at all. Gu Jiao took away this unused oil bottle and bought out his relationship with the Gu family for twenty taels of silver. Gu Xiaoshun's father and mother were very happy.

Nanxiang learned all these things from Gu Yan's mouth.

She feels more distressed for Gu Xiaoshun.

Gu Jiao looked at Gu Xiaoshun. To be honest, she was surprised. She didn't expect Nanxiang would like Gu Xiaoshun so much.

Let's put it this way, if the four of them stay in the orphanage together, Gu Xiaoshun will definitely be the last one to be adopted.

"Xiaoshun, what do you think?" Gu Jiao decided to listen to his opinion.

"I listen to my sister." Gu Xiaoshun said.

This guy is also unconscious, Gu Jiao changed the way of asking: "Then do you like Nanxiang Master and Master Lu?"

"I like it." Gu Xiaoshun said without hesitation.

Gu Jiao continued: "Then if they are too old to support themselves in the future, are you willing to take care of them?"

Gu Xiaoshun straightened up his chest: “Being a teacher for one day and a father for life, the master and the mother are like recreating parents, naturally they have to be taken care of!”

Gu Jiao has been his sister for so long, this is the most literary remark she has ever heard from him.

Gu Jiao almost understood what he thought.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with being able to love Gu Xiaoshun by two more people.

Gu Jiao was pleased to hear it, and she nodded: "Okay, listen to me. Why not pour tea for your foster father and mother?"

Gu Xiaoshun was startled: "Huh?"

"Oh!" Gu Yan hit his shoulder with his little shoulder, "My sister agrees!"

"This, this, this, this...Is that agreed?" Gu Xiaoshun was directly surprised to stammers.

He actually only found out today. He hasn't digested the news yet, and then he...has become the son of someone else's family?

No one is happiest than Nanxiang.

She has been with Xiaoshun for a long time, and finally she can justly abduct someone back to be a son!

Duke Wei unexpectedly came to Bishui Hutong to deliver something so festive. He said he didn't know that Gu Xiaoshun's life was so pitiful before.

Suddenly he felt a little pity for Gu Xiaoshun.

"Come on, Xiaoshun, come over!" He waved at Gu Xiaoshun.

"What are you doing?" Gu Xiaoshun walked over.

Duke Wei untied the wallet from his waist, took out a purse from it, and hit the purse and took out a golden leaf: "Here."

"Why give me this?" Gu Xiaoshun refused.

Duke Wei wants to say, I wish you a son for someone, but why doesn't that sound right? He cleared his throat and said, "Caito, do you understand the color tou? If you ask you to accept it, just accept it!"

He didn't know what to say.

"I do not want."

Gu Xiaoshun resolutely refused to accept.

Duke Wei tweeted: "Oh, you kid, you don't look down on it, do you?"

Gu Xiaoshun stubbornly said: "I didn't look down on it, but I can't ask for it! My sister said, I can't ask for other people's things!

Wei Gonggong stuffed him into his hand, and Gu Xiaoshun pushed it into his hand.

Nanxiang came over: "What's the matter?"

Duke Wei took the opportunity to stuff the golden leaf into Gu Xiaoshun's arms.

Gu Xiaoshun took out the golden leaf and said, “Duke Wei wants to give me this, I don't want it.”

Nan Xiang smiled, brought the golden leaf over, and was about to return it to Duke Wei, but suddenly smelled an unusual fragrance.

She curled her eyebrows, put the golden leaf on the tip of her nose and smelled it.

"What's wrong?" Wei Gonggong asked.

Nan Xiang's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "This golden leaf is so chic. It does the same thing as it really is. Does the father-in-law still have it? Can you let me have a look?"

"Some and some! They are all here!" Grandpa Wei gave him a bag of golden leaves that Grandma Cai gave him to Nan Xiang.

Nan Xiang calmly flipped through the gold leaf in the purse, and swiped his fingertips: "Oh, sorry, my nails are too long and I scratched the money bag of Grandpa Wei."

Wei Gonggong smiled and said, "It's okay! It's just a purse!"

Nan Xiang asked, "Is this money bag owned by the father-in-law? This suit is so beautiful."

Wei Gong Gong said: "The master in the palace rewarded him. If Mrs. Lu likes it, I will ask if there are too many when I look back."

Nan Xiang smiled and said, “That's not necessary. I broke this one. I will pay you a new one.”

Duke Wei: "No need, no need!"

Nanxiang insisted again and again, but Grandpa Wei still confiscated it. It was nothing but a broken money bag, in his opinion.

Gu Jiao noticed something wrong, and looked towards Nanxiang.

Nan Xiang smiled and said, "Miss Gu, do you have any needles and threads? I broke Grandpa Wei's wallet. I'll make it up for him."

"No need, really no need!" said Wei Gonggong.

Gu Jiao glanced at Nan Xiang: "Yes, please follow me."

The two entered the East Room.

Gu Jiao closed the door: "Did something happen?"

Nan Xiang took out the purse and tore it with both hands, and a pile of dried flower fragments fell out of the interlayer of the purse.

Gu Jiao pinched a piece of dried flower and put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it, “It smells so fragrant, what kind of flower is this?”

Nanxiang Road: "This is not a flower, it is a grass. It is a kind of medicinal herb that grows in the territory of Yan. It is colorless and tasteless, but after being soaked in the concoction, it will emit a fragrance similar to the fragrance of flowers."

Gu Jiao asked: "Is there a problem with this kind of grass?"

Nanxiang stared at him: “It's not a problem in itself, but after soaking it, it becomes a blind drug.”

"Yao Yin?" Gu Jiao frowned.

Nan Xiang looked at Gu Jiao steadily, and said: "A drug that can make people feel good, but also disgusting. Does this father-in-law suddenly get close to someone, or hate someone?"

Duke Wei did not... Your Majesty did!
