Chapter 50: Inquiring
Although no one dared to approach the people on both sides of the street, there were always people whispering in it, all speculating about Gu Muzhi's identity.
Gu Muzhi's ears were tipped, and he heard some bad remarks, saying that he was an unknown wild girl, which confused Qin Boyong's mind. But Gu Muzhi didn't want to worry about these people, so he just turned around and walked in the direction of Qin Mansion by himself.
The guards behind him all looked at each other, not knowing why Gu Muzhi was about to go back as soon as he came out, but he didn't say anything, just silently followed back to the Qin Mansion.
After returning to the other courtyard, Gu Muzhi told Xiaolan that she was a little unwell and wanted to lie down and rest for a while.
Xiaolan nodded, but looking at Gu Muzhi's appearance, she was worried in her heart, for fear that Gu Muzhi would faint like last time, so after Gu Muzhi lay down, Xiaolan secretly went to find Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan entered the house and saw Gu Muzhi lying on the couch, looking at it with empty eyes, looking sullen, and Lu Yuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, because Gu Muzhi's appearance did not look like a toxin attack.
"Ah Zhi girl, the prince sent me to check your body."
Lu Yuan smiled and sat down on the side of Gu Muzhi's bed, but Gu Muzhi didn't mean to get up, just stretched out a hand from the quilt.
Lu Yuan understood, so he gently picked up Gu Muzhi's outstretched hand and took the pulse for her.
"Miss Ah Zhi is doing well, it seems that she is recovering well these days." After Lu Yuan finished diagnosing, he put Gu Muzhi's hand back on the quilt and looked at Gu Muzhi with a smile.
But Gu Muzhi was still expressionless, as if he had been provoked by someone.
Lu Yuan saw that Gu Muzhi ignored him, but he was not in a hurry, and still said unhurriedly: "It's just that Miss Ah Zhi needs to regulate her emotions, and she can't be depressed all day long. ”
Gu Muzhi was taken aback, how did Lu Yuan know that he was unhappy?
"No matter what happens, you have to face it with a normal heart, happy is a day, unhappy is also a day, why not let yourself be happy and live a good day?"
After listening to Lu Yuan's words, Gu Muzhi really didn't feel so uncomfortable in her heart, but she was a little curious about what kind of illness she was and why it was still not good after so long.
"Lu Yuan, can I ask you something?" Gu Muzhi's cautious expression made Lu Yuan feel a little distressed.
"You say."
"Tell me, what disease I have, why I have been drinking medicine for months, but I still don't get better?"
Lu Yuan didn't expect Gu Muzhi to ask this, and he never thought about this question, he didn't know how to answer for a while, and his eyes were a little evasive.
These small details were all seen by Gu Muzhi, and she was even more puzzled in her heart, and she also guessed that she was not as simple as simply being poisoned by snakes.
"Don't worry, it's true that you've only been poisoned by snake venom, but this snake venom is a bit complicated, but don't worry, with me, your body will soon recover health."
Subsequently, Lu Yuan made an excuse that it was not too early and left.
Lu Yuan did not go directly back to his residence, but went to find Qin Boyong.
Qin Boyong has been busy dealing with official business in the past few days, and he didn't ask too much about the situation on Gu Muzhi's side, but he just knew that she was safe and sound.
Seeing that Lu Yuan was coming, he knew that it was related to Gu Muzhi, so he also put down the business at hand and took the opportunity to rest for a while.
"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with Gu Muzhi? Qin Boyong asked while taking a sip of tea.
Lu Yuan shook his head, "Miss Ah Zhi is recovering well, but the toxin still can't be completely removed, so I can only hope that my master will come sooner." ”
Qin Boyong listened and nodded silently, "Then why did you come here today?" ”
Lu Yuan frowned, "Does the prince still want to hide it from her all the time?" She is now beginning to suspect that her illness is not so simple. ”
Qin Boyong didn't answer immediately, and after a long time, he finally spoke: "This king knows." ”
"But..."
"Lord Wang, there is a discovery." Lu Yuan was about to say something, but Xiao Liu suddenly ran in from outside the door and said to Qin Boyong.
"Lu Yuan, you go back first, I will trouble you to take care of Gu Muzhi in the future."
After Qin Boyong finished speaking, he took Xiaoliu into the back room, and Lu Yuan knew that Qin Boyong had something important to deal with, so he didn't bother anymore.
"Found out?" As soon as he entered the inner room, Qin Boyong asked straight to the point.
Xiao Liu nodded a little solemnly, "I found out, it was the prefect who secretly accepted the silver taels." ”
Qin Boyong grinned and smiled lightly, but his smile was full of mockery, "I thought the prefect was clean and honest, but I didn't expect to do these things." ”
"Lord Wang, what should I do next?"
"Don't startle the snake first, you continue to send someone to investigate secretly, the prefect, the old fox, is careful in his daily life, and he will definitely not show his feet easily, you keep an eye on it and find more evidence."
"Yes." Xiao Liu saluted, and then exited the room.
"Lord Wang, it's so late, why are you here?" Xiaolan just waited for Gu Muzhi to fall asleep, and when she went out, she bumped into Qin Boyong and asked in a little surprise.
"Did Gu Muzhi sleep?"
Xiaolan nodded slightly.
"I didn't sleep, come in." When Gu Muzhi heard that it was Qin Boyong, he immediately turned over from the bed and sat up happily, shouting loudly outside.
Qin Boyong pushed open the door and saw Gu Muzhi smiling at him, but he frowned slightly, and immediately stepped forward to take off his long shirt and put it on Gu Muzhi.
"How many times have you said that this will catch a cold."
Seeing that Qin Boyong cared about himself, Gu Muzhi smiled embarrassedly, "Didn't you forget that you knew that the prince was coming, and you were too excited." ”
Gu Muzhi led Qin Boyong to sit down, instructed Xiaolan to make a pot of hot tea, and brought in a plate of dim sum that he had just learned to make in the afternoon.
This time, Qin Boyong didn't hesitate, he directly picked up a piece and ate a piece.
"Yes, the craftsmanship is good, and it tastes better than the last time."
Listening to Qin Boyong praising himself, Gu Muzhi blushed with shame.
The two of them sat by the window like this, eating snacks and drinking tea, and the moonlight outside came in, adding a bit of seclusion.
After a long time, Qin Boyong finally spoke: "Let's go back to the courtyard with this king in a few days, there are some things in the house that need to be dealt with." ”
Gu Muzhi raised his head, put down the snack in his hand, was slightly surprised, opened his mouth, but did not speak.
She knew that Qin Boyong was going back to do business, and she couldn't be willful at will.
So, he smiled hard at Qin Boyong and replied, "Okay, listen to the prince." ”
Xu didn't expect Gu Muzhi to agree so happily, Qin Boyong looked at Gu Muzhi meaningfully, and smiled lightly.
These days in the courtyard are probably Gu Muzhi's happiest times, without Su Yue'er's interruption, there is only Qin Boyong's company and quiet time.
Although Qin Boyong is always busy, as long as he thinks that there are only the two of them here, he will be happy in his heart.
As soon as he thought of going back to his original courtyard, Gu Muzhi was really a little reluctant in his heart.
