Chapter 39: Excuse to Leave
"This..."Xiaolan looked at Gu Muzhi and seemed to be unhappy, and was about to step forward to interrupt the discussion between the two, but was stopped by Gu Muzhi.
"Let's go back." Gu Muzhi was a little disappointed, turned around and walked back.
All afternoon, Gu Muzhi was thinking about the words of those two subordinates in his mind.
finally came to the conclusion: Qin Boyong took himself outside to avoid getting along with Su Yue'er.
"Miss Zhi, it's time to drink the medicine." Xiaolan looked at Gu Muzhi with a worried face, Xu was pretending to have something else in her heart, Gu Muzhi waved her hand, not wanting to drink medicine.
"Let it go, I'll drink it later."
"However, Dr. Lu explained that this medicine must be drunk while it is hot, otherwise, the effect of the medicine will be halved."
No matter how Xiaolan persuaded her, Gu Muzhi always refused to drink the medicine.
Just when Xiaolan didn't know what to do, rescuers appeared, and Qin Boyong appeared at the door. thought that Gu Muzhi would be happier when she saw Qin Boyong, but she didn't look at him.
"Why haven't you drunk the medicine yet?" Seeing the medicine bowl in Xiaolan's hand, Qin Boyong frowned and stepped forward to ask.
"Back to the prince, Miss Ah Zhi refuses to drink medicine." Xiaolan replied truthfully.
"Oh? Why? Qin Boyong walked over to Gu Muzhi and sat down, looking straight at her with his eyes.
"It's none of your business." Gu Muzhi didn't want to be as close as Qin Boyong was sitting in, so he stood up quietly and took the initiative to distance himself from Qin Boyong.
Seeing Gu Muzhi like this, Qin Boyong was surprised in his heart, wondering why Gu Muzhi was so cold to himself.
"Let's drink the medicine first." Qin Boyong took the medicine bowl and handed it to Gu Muzhi, but Gu Muzhi turned his head again, still ignoring it.
"You can ignore this king, but you can't get along with your body, drink the medicine, and we'll talk about other things later."
No matter how cold Gu Muzhi was to himself, Qin Boyong was not annoyed, and still patiently coaxed Gu Muzhi to drink medicine.
Gu Muzhi was very unhappy in his heart, but he couldn't bear Qin Boyong's patience, and the dissatisfaction in his heart had actually been half gone, but he didn't want to show it on his face.
"Huh?"
Gu Muzhi finally reached out and took the medicine bowl, drank it all, the bitterness in her mouth spread, and she couldn't help coughing a few times.
Seeing this, Qin Boyong reached out and patted her back gently, looked at her with a concerned expression, and then took out a string of sugar gourds from his sleeve and handed it to Gu Muzhi.
Seeing the sugar gourd, Gu Muzhi's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached out and took the sugar gourd, happy like a child.
Seeing Gu Muzhi eating sugar gourds and eating a mouth full of sugar, Qin Boyong patiently wiped them all for her.
The sugar gourd was all cleaned up by Gu Muzhi after a while, and he licked his lips contentedly, as if he was still reminiscing.
"It would be great if every time I drank the medicine in the future, I could have sugar gourds to eat."
When Qin Boyong heard Gu Muzhi's innocent words, he couldn't help but laugh and touched Gu Muzhi's head dotingly.
Qin Boyong's move made Gu Muzhi freeze, and he seemed to have made a big decision in his heart, and after a long time, he finally took the opportunity to say to Qin Boyong: "Qin Boyong, will you stay with me today?" ”
Qin Boyong was obviously a little surprised, but his expression was still indifferent: "Let's change the day, there are still some things waiting for this king to deal with." ”
Hearing that he had been rejected, Gu Muzhi's eyes immediately lost focus, and he lowered his head in some disappointment.
"You rest early, I'll go to the main hall." was about to touch Gu Muzhi's head again, but this time Gu Muzhi deftly dodged it. Qin Boyong knew that Gu Muzhi was a little angry, but he just smiled helplessly and left.
Xiao Lan on the side saw all the scenes in her eyes, and she had been thinking about comforting Gu Muzhi.
"Miss Azhi, it's not early, let's rest early."
Gu Muzhi's eyes were glazed, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't answer for a long time.
"Miss Ah Zhi, don't blame the slave and maid for being too talkative, the prince has indeed been busy in the main hall until late at night these days, and these are all told to the slave and maid by the friends who are waiting in the main hall. So, Miss Ah Zhi, don't be upset, the prince didn't lie to you. ”
"Really? Didn't Qin Boyong say he was busy just to avoid me? ”
Xiaolan smiled knowingly, "Naturally not, there is no reason why the prince would lie to Miss Ah Zhi." In the afternoon, the two little maids who cleaned the yard said that the slave and maid also quietly asked, things are not what they said at all, the prince is very cold to Su Yue'er, how can he get along. ”
Xiaolan said a lot of words in a row, and the doubts and grievances in Gu Muzhi's heart disappeared with Xiaolan's explanation.
Knowing that Qin Boyong didn't deliberately perfunctory himself, Gu Muzhi's heart was no longer uncomfortable, and under Xiaolan's service, he fell asleep early.
This night, her dreams were the same as sugar gourds, sweet tastes.
"Childe, there's a new situation." The person sent by Zhou Xun to inquire about Gu Muzhi's news found something and hurriedly came back to report it to him.
"What's the situation?" As soon as he heard that it was something related to Gu Muzhi, Zhou Xun immediately came to his senses.
"Gu Muzhi was poisoned, that person has been found out by Qin Boyong, it is Su Yue'er, the concubine of the house, Su Yue'er was grounded for several days, and the ban was only lifted recently."
"Oh? And such a thing? ”
Zhou Xun listened to the report of his subordinates, and suddenly thought that when he saw Gu Muzhi in the temple, her face was pale and she didn't look very energetic, and he felt a little strange at the time, but later found that she was no different from a normal person, so he thought that he was thinking too much.
But now that I think about it, that is the manifestation of long-term **** taking.
Zhou Xun felt that this matter was interesting, Su Yue'er drugged Gu Muzhi, but Qin Boyong's punishment for this turned out to be a simple grounding.
"By the way, there's one more thing that my subordinates think is strange."
Zhou Xun waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to continue.
"Now it seems that Gu Muzhi didn't know that he was poisoned, let alone that the person who poisoned him was Su Yue'er, and his subordinates inquired about it to others, saying that Qin Boyong had given an order, and no one was allowed to tell Gu Muzhi about poisoning."
Zhou Xun touched his chin with one hand and fell into deep thought, although it was not clear what Qin Boyong's purpose was in doing this.
But one thing is certain: I want to find an opportunity to let Gu Muzhi know about this matter, which is a good thing for Qin Boyong.
"You go back first, continue to guard, don't startle the snake, no matter what, you have to find a way to get close to Gu Muzhi and let her know the truth about this matter."
After listening to Zhou Xun's instructions, his subordinates continued to lurk into the Qin Mansion. For him, it was easy to enter the Qin Mansion, but it was even more difficult to enter Gu Muzhi's courtyard.
Since the poisoning incident, Qin Boyong has sent a large number of people to guard outside, and Gu Muzhi's courtyard has been heavily guarded.
