Chapter 33: An Inexplicable Warning
Gu Xiwu couldn't understand why she had anything to do with the hunting ground, so she simply didn't want to.
The original good mood has disappeared, and he simply returned to the banquet room.
Not long before she came back, Mu Chuan had just sat down, and was serving vegetables for Gu Miaoxuan, when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure walking in at the door, and her hand was only slightly paused, and it returned to normal in less than a breath.
Gu Miaoxuan didn't notice that Mu Chuan was wrong, but she was shy, which attracted the envy of the ladies below.
After Gu Xiwu sat down again, she looked at the table full of delicacies, she had no appetite, and ate two bites on her face, and the look on her face that was difficult to swallow attracted Gu Che's attention.
"But you're not feeling well? If you're really uncomfortable, go home! "If it weren't for today's banquet, he deliberately named Gu Xiwu, he might have let her rest at home, which is much better than coming to this kind of false occasion.
Looking at the worry in Gu Che's eyes, Gu Xiwu's heart warmed, her father, who was a body, seemed to have a trace of merit, although this concern came a little late.
"Then the father, the daughter will go back first!" Gu Xiwu was not polite, got up and left, and he supported the rest.
Sitting in the carriage of Xiangwang's Mansion, Gu Xiwu relaxed at this time, if she hadn't noticed the mistake just now, since she left the banquet hall, someone has been following behind her.
It's just that when she got into the carriage, she didn't have this feeling, and she thought she was from the Muchuan faction.
Gu Xiwu glanced at the orange blossoms sitting on the sidelines, looking at her nose and heart, and was a little puzzled.
With her body, although her natural acuity has not changed, her perception is a little dull, and she relies solely on herself, and she may realize that something is wrong after she gets into the carriage.
But halfway through, Orange Blossom suddenly stepped forward, held her hand, and sent her a message, and someone followed her behind her, and she noticed it early.
Orange Blossom's move puzzled her, could it be that she didn't notice whether the person behind her was King Ping's person before she came forward to remind her?
She didn't say it, and Gu Xiwu didn't know, but even if she was curious, she would never ask, just because she knew, and she wouldn't say it if she asked, so why bother with it.
The carriage returned all the way back to the gate of Xiangwang's Mansion, and when Gu Xiwu got out of the car, he went in the direction of Pingwangfu, and Xiangwang Gu Che had not yet returned.
Gu Xiwu didn't stop all the way, and went back to the courtyard directly, as soon as he stepped into the courtyard door, he noticed that something was wrong, and the atmosphere in the courtyard was completely different from usual.
Someone's coming?
Aunt Su happened to hurriedly walk over with a cup of tea, and she was surprised when she saw Gu Xiwu's figure.
"Miss, you're back, Shizi has been waiting for a while!"
Gu Xiwu immediately understood, who else could enter her courtyard so boldly, and let Aunt Su bring tea and water so confidently, out of the prince of Yunnan?
Walking into the hall, Mo Xuanyin was looking at the book she casually put on the table last night, and seemed to be reading it with relish, but it was just an essay, and I didn't know that he would be interested.
"Shizi, please use tea." Seeing that Mo Xuanyin didn't notice her, Gu Xiwu opened her mouth and said, while motioning to Aunt Su to bring the teacup.
Mo Xuanyin closed the book, raised his head, and looked at Gu Xiwu as if he had only noticed her now.
"It seems that the Pingwang Mansion is not over yet, the second lady came back early, is she unwell?" Mo Xuanyin had some concern on her face, and seemed to be very worried about her body.
However, Gu Xiwu would not misunderstand, Mo Xuanyin cared about her whether it was fake, and she was afraid that she was acting for Orange Blossom to see if it was true, so she was obviously very cooperative, "Thank you Shizi for your concern, I'm fine, but my appetite is a little bad." ”
"In this way, then I am relieved!" Mo Xuanyin suddenly winked at her, Gu Xiwu was stunned at first, afraid that he had something to do, and wanted to tell her alone.
"Orange blossom, Caiyin, you go out for the time being, I have something to say to the son." Gu Xiwu thought about Mu Chuan's warning to her today, which could just be used as an excuse.
Cai Yin walked out after Orange Blossom, but when she went out, she didn't close the door.
"Can Shizi do me a favor?" Gu Xiwu waited until Yuguang caught a glimpse of the orange blossom stopping not far away, just stopping by the door with his back to them, and then slowly spoke.
"If the second lady has something to mention, as long as this king can help, she will definitely help." Mo Xuanyin did not boast about Haikou.
"This is also strange, today was supposed to celebrate Princess Ping's recovery from her injuries, but during the banquet, King Ping came to warn me, saying that I had something to do with Princess Ping's injury. But I don't know how Princess Ping was injured in the hunting ground, I'm afraid that someone deliberately provoked the relationship between King Ping and King Xiang's mansion, after all, Princess Ping was injured in order to protect King Ping. ”
Mo Xuanyin listened to the movements in her hand for a moment, thinking that it was just her words, and she didn't want to really have such a thing.
"This prince will investigate this matter, it is easy to have an accident on the hunting ground, but if someone does do something behind his back, his heart should be punished, not to mention, it is actually blamed on the head of the future princess, this is hard to guarantee that it is not aimed at this world, this matter must be investigated!"
The expression on Mo Xuanyin's face did not change much, but in his voice, there was a thick anger, as if he couldn't accept that Gu Xiwu was wronged, and there was a hint of distress in it.
If it weren't for Gu Xiwu watching Mo Xuanyin's words, and watching the movements of his hands with his own eyes, he would really think that Mo Xuanyin had a deep love for her and couldn't tolerate the slightest slander.
As soon as the words fell, and the last stroke had already fallen, Mo Xuanyin picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip slowly.
The Gentiles have entered the capital, and there is probably more than one legion.
Gu Xiwu's pupils shrank, a legion! Not to mention that there have been changes after Gu Feng took the position, as far as she knows, a legion can be full of elites, not to mention two or three hundred people.
How did so many foreigners enter the capital in a short period of time, no, maybe not in a short time, maybe it was to be prepared, how in the end, Gu Xiwu didn't dare to think.
"I believe that the prince will give me justice, if it is gradually calmed down today, it is unknown that there may be thieves who have infiltrated the hunting grounds, but I don't know why the blame is on a young lady who is waiting for me. I'm just afraid that it will affect the head of the Xiangwang Mansion, how can this be good? Gu Xiwu suppressed the fluctuations in her heart, and then continued with Mo Xuanyin's words.
The fingertips also touched the water stains in the tea cup and wrote on the small table one by one.
There must be a traitor in the city, please be careful!
"I will!" Mo Xuanyin had gradually checked down the vine, and inexplicably thought of Gu Xiwu's anxiety when he rushed to his house, so he thought about coming over.
It can also make her take more precautions and be careful of the people around her, who knows if these foreign people are secretly monitoring the every move of some people, just looking forward to having more chips on the day they move.
After all, she is the princess of Yunnan appointed by the emperor, and he has made it clear to everyone that he likes her, and it is hard to guarantee that someone will hit her with his mind.
Gu Xiwu took out the handkerchief he carried without a trace, and wiped the water stains on the table clean, leaving no trace that would make people suspicious.
It seems that the words have come to an end here, but Mo Xuanyin has no intention of leaving, which makes Gu Xiwu look at it suspiciously.
Asking with his eyes, but what do you have to say?
"The second lady is really a wonderful person, with a pair of talking eyes. Do you remember when you asked the king for a snow lotus? Mo Xuanyin suddenly said that Gu Xiwu had asked him for snow lotus under the pretext of a love token.
"I remember it, could it be that the son of the world thinks it's inappropriate?" Gu Xiwu blurted out subconsciously.
"No, no! It's just that Xuelian doesn't seem to be able to completely detoxify the poison on the second miss, and I'm coming back, by the way, for this matter, thinking that I still want to make the second miss healthy, so that I won't worry too much. ”
Mo Xuanyin's words made Gu Xiwu a little surprised, and at the same time a little shocked, how did he know that the poison on her body had not completely solved this matter?
"I still remember that night, although Ben Shizi once helped the second lady close her clothes with his own hands, he still accidentally caught a glimpse of it. It's on the shoulders of the second lady, but there is a red line? ”
Gu Xiwu didn't have time to be ashamed, as he said, there was indeed such a red line on her shoulders, at first she thought it was from the original body, but later when she was bathing, Cai Yin had doubts about this red line, and then she suddenly found that it seemed to grow later.
But when it was, Gu Xiwu didn't know, was it that night?
"Is there a way to detoxify?" Gu Xiwu read many medical books but never knew what kind of poison it was, plus her body, since she drank the medicinal soup with snow lotus, she was indeed gradually improving, and she was not in a hurry.
But just recently, she suddenly felt that at night, she seemed to wake up more and more often, and even if she fell asleep, she would definitely break out in a cold sweat.
Although the spirit is good, the inside of the body is getting more and more empty, and the red line is becoming more and more red.
Looking at Gu Xiwu's cautious appearance, Mo Xuanyin seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly reached out towards her wrist, which had just touched it, and he almost couldn't believe that the body of the person in front of him had been empty to this point.
Gu Xiwu looked even more generous, letting Mo Xuanyin take her pulse.
"It seems that it can't be delayed, I do have a way, but it's not up to me to solve it, but it will take a few days." Mo Xuanyin thought about whether to urge it, after walking for so many days, he hadn't even entered the capital, and the efficiency of this work was getting worse and worse.
Gu Xiwu slowly withdrew her wrist, quietly covered the red thread that had already extended to her forearm, and said slowly, "In a few days, I can still wait, I know the condition of my body." ”
