Just as the eldest prince was about to refute, he heard the emperor speak again: "Imperial sister, don't you think that Gu Chen's status is low, and his wife is not qualified to apologize to you?" ”

was exposed in public, Rao is eldest princess, no matter how thick-skinned she is, she can't help but feel a little unbearable on her face.

However, before she could open her mouth to plead her case, the emperor added: "In this case, you will be responsible for the national tax for each quarter in the future." ”

In a word, the words that the eldest princess was about to say were instantly blocked in her throat.

The emperor took the tax as is, who can refute him!

Who doesn't know that the treasury is empty now, so Gu Chen alone pays half of the taxes every year, at least one-third, and asks her to fill it? Even if she is an eldest princess, even if she has a little land, where can she fill it?

The emperor used taxes to block her mouth, didn't it make it clear that he wanted to support Gu Chen?

It's amazing to be rich!

The eldest princess was so angry that she held her breath in her chest, she couldn't go up or down, but she didn't dare to say anything more, so she could only put on a posture and said to Qin Niang seriously: "Young Mrs. Gu, I lost my words in the palace just now, and I hope that Young Mrs. Gu will not mind." ”

Qin Niang accepted it when she saw it, and said with a smile: "The eldest princess is polite." ”

The eldest princess was about to greet Gu Chen and Qin Niang's ancestors for eight generations in her heart, but she had to pretend to be generous on her face, but the county lord of Minghua did not have a city like the eldest princess, and she looked at Qin Niang's eyes at the moment with resentment.

However, Qin Niang was in a good mood, so she didn't see it.

After the emperor ordered the eldest princess to go to the palace gate to persuade the students who were meditating, he let a few people disperse.

By the time Gu Chen and Qin Niang left the palace gate, the group of students at the palace gate had already dispersed, and even the wind direction in the capital was different.

Qin Niang breathed a long sigh of relief, she thought that the matter was so big, and the emperor wanted to detain her in the palace for a few more days in order to calm the anger of these students!

"You say, the prince's jade plate was really stolen when he went out on patrol?" Qin Niang tilted her head, looked at Gu Chen and asked, "Why am I so unbelieving!" ”

The dignified prince of the East Palace, is the thing on his body so easy to steal?

Moreover, the jade card is obviously a very important thing, so why won't it be hung outside like a purse for others to do it, right?

If it is a personal collection, how can it be so easy for others to steal? Besides, she had seen Song Huai's skills with her own eyes, she could fight with the barbarian princess of the Northern Regions at the beginning, and if she could steal such a valuable thing from him, how high should that person's martial arts be?

But those people in the troupe are just good at fists and feet, so she doesn't believe that any of them have such skills!

Unless Song Huai himself is willing.

Why?

"Presumably, the piece of jade on that squad leader has been replaced, and even he doesn't know it." Gu Chen narrowed his eyes and said, otherwise, how could the jade plate of the dignified prince get into the hands of a commoner?

If that person is extraordinary, it's just some fists and feet to beg for life, and with that little ability, I'm afraid that even Song Huai's body can't get close.

"Who can change the prince's important things?" Qin Niang guessed, "Isn't it the prince himself?" ”

So why did he do this?

Qin Niang can't figure it out!

However, it cannot be denied that if no one had changed the jade beforehand, then today's events would have been inevitable

It's not that easy to solve.

"Humph!" Gu Chen snorted coldly, and his face sank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

What kind of thoughts Song Huai has, he still doesn't know?

"It's just that I want to sell a good deal to you, maybe one day I will bring this favor out and ask you to pay it back, if he uses this as an excuse to find you in the future, you can push it to me, and I will repay this favor for you." Gu Chen thought, he wanted an excuse to get close to his woman, in the next life.

Qin Niang thought, it is really terrible for a man to be jealous, this person is not in front of him, and his sour smell can permeate the entire capital.

However, Qin Niang didn't bother to disobey him at this time, so she just nodded kindly.

The carriage soon returned to Gu's house.

As soon as Qin Niang got out of the car, she saw the housekeeper hurriedly running forward: "Young master, madam, it's not good, Tang Erniang has been poisoned, and now she is in a coma, and Dr. Zhang is helpless, this is ......"

Steward Liu said, and hurriedly wiped the sweat on his forehead.

Although Gu Chen's mind was not on Tang Wan, she was also his nominal concubine, and if something really happened, it would be difficult to explain.

"Poisoned?" Gu Chen twisted his eyebrows, "How can a good person be poisoned?" Who in this house will poison her? ”

Steward Liu spread his hands with a bitter face and said: "This old slave doesn't know, but I just heard from someone that she drank a bowl of pomegranate juice in the morning and didn't eat anything for lunch, how did this good one get poisoned, and the old slave didn't know, let Dr. Zhang go and take a look, Dr. Zhang said he couldn't solve it, young master, look, do you want to ask Lin Shao to help take a look?" ”

Qin Niang raised her eyebrows, even Steward Liu knew that Lin Yao was a hidden medical master, but she didn't know.

However, how could this Tang Wan be poisoned?

It's good if she doesn't poison others, who can hurt her?

"What about the Miaojiang woman she brought back? Hasn't that woman always known some crooked ways? Maybe this poison was inflicted on them themselves. Gu Chen sneered and didn't take it to heart.

"That woman hasn't seen anyone since early this morning, the old slave asked, Tang Erniang said that the woman found her family and left in the middle of the night." Steward Liu said, following step by step, "Young Master, why don't you go and have a look, otherwise, if she is really dead, it will not be good to spread it, besides, she is still the person who has been given a free kneeling card by the Holy Lord, if the Holy One asks, the old slave is afraid that it will have a bad impact on the Gu family." ”

Gu Chen's eyebrows were about to be twisted into a rope, and there was a thick disgust in his eyes, even Qin Niang could see that he didn't want to pay attention to Tang Wan, and always felt that there was something greasy in this, but Steward Liu was right, if she really died, if the saint was to ask, it would not be good after all.

"Let's take a look, after all, she is a woman who has shown her face in front of the saint." Although she was extremely unwilling, for the sake of the overall situation, she had to persuade Gu Chen to go and see what was going on.

Even if she Tang Wan wants to die, she can't die in the name of Gu Chen's woman, let alone die in the Gu family.

Otherwise, if it spreads out in the future, it will be said that she Yang Qinyan is not graceful, her methods are vicious, and she is good at inner house methods, saying that the Yang family's Qingliu family actually taught such an unbearable daughter, saying that Gu Chen stepped on a woman and walked forward, and abandoned it after using it.

In short, she Tang Wan is going to die, and she can't have anything to do with her.

Gu Chen glanced at her and understood her thoughts, so he nodded, took her hand and went to Wanxin Pavilion together.

Inside the Wanxin Pavilion.

Tang Wan lay on the bed dying

As soon as Gu Chen entered the house with Qin Niang, his eyes lit up and he greeted him: "Young Master, you can be regarded as back, your subordinates really have no choice, otherwise, you should go and invite Lin Shao to come over." ”

Qin Niang looked at Gu Chen in surprise, it seems that everyone in this mansion knows that Lin Yao is a hidden master, but she is the only one who doesn't know.

She has lived two lives in vain!

Thinking of this, her gaze turned back to Tang Wan again, thoughtfully.

It seems that this Tang Wan also knows about this, otherwise, she would not have let herself fall into such a dead end, is she sure that Gu Chen will not let her die?

"Butler, you personally go to the Lin Mansion and invite Lin Yao over." Gu Chen's eyes deepened, and he finally let go.

After Steward Liu got the order, he answered, and quickly ran out with his old legs.

Doctor Zhang was obviously also relieved: "I temporarily sealed the toxins in Tang Erniang's body in my limbs with silver needles to prevent it from spreading to my heart, presumably after Lin Shao comes, there will still be time to save people." ”

Gu Chen glanced at him and didn't say much.

Doctor Zhang continued: "This poisonous subordinate has never seen it before, so it can only delay the time temporarily, thanks to your return, if it is later, I am afraid that the silver needle will not be able to stop it." ”

Qin Niang found a chair and sat down, looking like she was going to watch to the end.

She didn't believe that Tang Wan could be poisoned for no reason, and besides, the people in this mansion didn't dare to poison her, and this was a bitter trick that she wrote and directed herself.

In her previous life, she couldn't try a trick like this, and every time she could make Gu Chen pity her a little more, and she was a little far away from Yang Qinyan.

Gu Chen stood outside the window, his fingers moved, the shadows of the trees outside shook, and then slowly calmed down.

After a short time, Lin Yao was dragged into Wanxin Pavilion by Steward Liu.

As soon as he entered, he complained loudly: "I say, I have just returned from outside the city, and my ass is not hot yet!" was dragged over again, what is the big deal that has to be out of the horse? ”

Gu Chen turned his face sideways to look at him, and pointed at the person on the bed with his chin: "Look at what kind of poison she has been in, is there a solution?" ”

Lin Yao rolled his eyes unceremoniously, and said angrily: "Please remember my identity, I am a businessman, and I am also an imperial businessman, not a doctor!" ”

Gu Chen turned a deaf ear: "We're waiting for you outside, you hurry up and see." ”

After speaking, he pulled Qin Niang out of the inner room and went to the side hall outside.

Lin Yao was so angry that he crossed his waist, this person was too domineering, how did he become friends with him? Is it too late to break up now?

Complaining is complaining, and illness still has to be seen.

In the side hall.

Gu Chen and Qin Niang sat side by side on the circle chairs, and the maid made tea and served it, with some freshly baked snacks.

Qin Niang stayed in the palace for so long, and she was indeed hungry, she picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it, never thought that she just pinched it up and wanted to send it to her mouth, and was cut off.

She looked at the man who had taken her food and looked like he was enjoying it, and she really lost her temper.

Isn't it delicious that she has something in her hand?

"Okay, you two, why can you sit here and eat and drink in peace, and I'm going to be tired to death?"
