Chapter 40: Find a way

Gu Muzhi's yard has always been protected by secret guards, so Gu Muzhi has always been ignorant of the poisoning incident.

After observing for a few days, Zhou Xun's subordinates thought of a way and decided to go to Gu Muzhi's courtyard.

Simply changed into the clothes worn by the subordinates in Qin Boyong's courtyard, secretly took some snacks in the kitchen, and came to Gu Muzhi's courtyard.

Seeing that he was about to reach the door, he was stopped: "Who is it?" The guard looked at him with a hideous face, and Zhou Xun's subordinates' hearts were about to jump out, but they still pretended to be calm.

"I'm from the prince's courtyard, and the prince ordered me to bring some snacks over for Miss Ah Zhi to taste."

As he spoke, he deliberately revealed the snack in his hand to prove that he was not lying.

"Well, give us some snacks, and you're good to go." The guard took the snack and looked at him incredulously. He didn't remember that there was such a person in the prince's courtyard, but he didn't dare to jump to conclusions.

The man sighed silently, knowing that he couldn't easily touch Gu Muzhi, so he nodded lightly and left.

"What does that guy do?" The housekeeper of the Qin Mansion happened to pass by here, and when he saw Fang Cai's scene, he stepped forward to inquire about the situation.

"Back to the housekeeper, the man just now said that he was from the prince's courtyard, and he wanted to bring snacks to Miss Ah Zhi. But I always felt that he was raw, and he behaved strangely. ”

The guard looked at the snack in his hand, then in the direction the man had left, and said thoughtfully.

"Don't leak the news for the time being, you don't care about him, as long as he doesn't enter Miss Zhi's yard."

The housekeeper already had a plan in his heart, and left after a few words.

After going back, he was not idle, and counted all the people up and down the Qin Mansion to make sure that the person was not from the Qin Mansion, and in order to avoid startling the snake, he had been allowed to mix in the Qin Mansion, but the housekeeper had already secretly sent someone to investigate the identity of that person.

It only took one day to find out the identity and background of that person, and that person was actually Zhou Xun's person.

The housekeeper was surprised, knowing that since he was Zhou Xun's person, he must be going to Miss Ah Zhi, but fortunately, the prince had already prepared and sent a large number of people to guard Gu Muzhi's courtyard, so he didn't give him a chance.

It's really scary to think about it now.

The housekeeper combed through the news he had gotten, and he didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly told Qin Boyong about the matter.

Qin Boyong was still busy dealing with government affairs, but as soon as he heard the housekeeper's words, he immediately stopped and personally led someone to arrest Zhou Xun's men.

When he found him, he changed into the clothes of the subordinate in another courtyard, and was about to try it again in Gu Muzhi's appearance.

Knowing that his identity was revealed, he didn't think about interceding for himself, and kept his mouth tightly shut, never saying a word from beginning to end.

Qin Boyong didn't force him, Zhou Xun's people came to his own mansion for a clear idea without asking.

"Your son-in-law is really persevering, and he has failed so many times before and after, but he still doesn't give up. It's really not enough to die in the heart of the Yellow River. ”

Hearing Qin Boyong say this, the man just snorted coldly, his eyes glaring at him.

Subsequently, Qin Boyong sent someone to escort him to the dungeon of the Qin Mansion and locked him up, and this matter was not allowed to be publicized in the Qin Mansion.

The dungeon of the Qin Mansion has always been hidden, even if it is a person like Gu Muzhi who likes to explore and discover everywhere on weekdays, he has never noticed it at all.

Since he caught Zhou Xun's subordinates, Qin Boyong has become more cautious in doing things, not only Gu Muzhi's courtyard, but the entire Qin Mansion is strictly guarded inside and out, no one outside can enter, and no one inside can leave the house at will.

Gu Muzhi hadn't eaten sugar gourds for a long time, and when he drank medicine every day these days, he always remembered the taste of the sugar gourd given by Qin Boyong that day, and he was very greedy.

But since that day, Qin Boyong has never come to see him again, let alone bring her sugar gourds.

"Miss A-chi, why did you change your clothes?" Xiaolan just went to the kitchen to put the medicine bowl, and when she came back, she saw Gu Muzhi changing her clothes.

"Xiaolan, it's just right to come back, accompany me to the street to buy sugar gourds."

Gu Muzhi turned his head and laughed, and he couldn't stop laughing, and he was so happy that he could eat the sugar gourd he thought about day and night later.

"But... Lord Wang..."Xiaolan hesitated a little, remembering that Qin Boyong had explained before, don't let Gu Muzhi go out easily.

"Qin Boyong? What's wrong? If he doesn't buy me sugar gourds, aren't I allowed to buy them myself? A trace of displeasure flashed on Gu Muzhi's face.

Seeing that Gu Muzhi was about to get angry again, Xiaolan hurriedly comforted her and promised to accompany her out to buy it.

It's just because Xiaolan remembers that there are always sugar gourds sold outside the Qin Mansion on weekdays, so it's a big deal that she looks at Gu Muzhi and comes back quickly after buying the sugar gourd.

Hearing Xiaolan's agreement, Gu Muzhi jumped up happily, since the last time he came back from the manor, many days had passed, and he hadn't been out for a long time.

Xiaolan waited for Gu Muzhi to dress up for a while, and the two finally went out unhurriedly.

But when they arrived at the gate of the Qin Mansion, the two were stopped by the guards.

"Miss Ah Zhi, the prince has instructed that no one is allowed to go out." The guard stated Qin Boyong's order with an expressionless face.

"I..." Gu Muzhi was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer the guard's words.

After thinking about it, he said, "Since you are not at ease, then you can go with us." ”

But who knows, the guard shook his head: "Please go back." ”

At this time, Gu Muzhi saw a sugar gourd seller carrying a large handful of sugar gourds passing by the gate of the Qin Mansion outside the door.

"Get out of the way, I'll go buy a bunch of sugar gourds and I'll be back." After saying that, he wanted to sneak out while the guards were not paying attention, but before his feet could stretch out, he was ruthlessly stopped.

Gu Muzhi pouted unhappily: "Rules are dead, but people are alive, do you have to listen to Qin Boyong if you let you die!" Seeing that the sugar gourd was getting farther and farther away from him, Gu Muzhi was aggrieved, and the anger in his heart was about to ignite.

"My subordinates are willing to go to the soup for the prince."

"You..."Gu Muzhi was so angry by the guard that he couldn't speak. had to stalemate with him at the door, Xiaolan persuaded him a few times, but Gu Muzhi still refused to go back to the courtyard.

At this time, Qin Boyong appeared, and he came back from the street fighting the sugar gourd that Gu Muzhi had just seen.

Gu Muzhi saw the sugar gourd from afar, and the person who was happily selling the sugar gourd heard her voice and came back to find her, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Qin Boyong carrying the sugar gourd.

"Oh, your sugar gourd, this king has bought it, you can take it back to the yard and eat it slowly, and buy it again after eating."

Qin Boyong said, and handed the sugar gourd to Gu Muzhi.
