Chapter 98: The Palace Banquet
That night, Xiao Yanlin told Xiao Ruoyun about the incident.
Xiao Ruoyun didn't feel anything, just thought it was an ordinary banquet.
It was Gu Ruan Ruan who was in the ancestral hall, and somehow the vast number of supernatural powers knew the news.
She paced back and forth in the dimly lit wing next to the ancestral hall.
She heard that Xiao Yanlin, Gu Baiyu, and even Xiao Ruoyun would go.
If she hadn't been punished, this would have been a ...... She should be able to follow her into the palace, but now ......
She showed anxiety on her face, and her pace was faster, and the licorice root on the side was behind her, and she asked cautiously, "Auntie, why don't you forget it this time......?" ”
Gu Ruan Ruan shook his head: "No! ”
She thought that she would definitely not be able to see the second prince recently, but the speculation about the incident in the Ministry of Industry has always been pressed in her heart, and now that she has the opportunity to enter the palace, how can she let go of this opportunity?
If you can say that Xiao Ruoyun will take her out......
As long as Xiao Ruoyun relaxes, then even the matter of being confined to the ancestral hall can be subtly resolved, and she can also meet the second prince.
From the time she got married to the present, she has suffered countless losses by Gu Baiyu's side, and she has to find a way to fight back!
And this is the first step, you have to find a way to follow Xiao Ruoyun into the palace together!
What she could think of, Gu Baiyu could naturally think of.
Before resting, Gu Baiyu instructed Lingyu to pay attention to the movement in the ancestral hall, such a good opportunity, she didn't believe that Gu Ruanruan would let it go.
Lingyu asked with some hesitation, "Then if Aunt Gu really said that the second master was moved, how should we stop it?" ”
Gu Baiyu lowered his eyes slightly.
"That's in someone's own room. If the second master hasn't learned a lesson and is still willing to indulge her, then let's just wait to watch the play on the sidelines. I knew it earlier...... The palace is no better than this back house, if you are a little careless, it is a matter of losing your head. ”
Lingyu couldn't help but complain, "The slave maid can't figure it out, what is so good about Aunt Gu, she can let the second master indulge her again and again!" ”
Gu Baiyu smiled faintly.
What's so good?
She didn't know the answer to that question either.
He hadn't figured it out since his previous life.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
During the conversation, Xiao Yanlin, who went out to serve soothing soup, returned to the room.
He was afraid that Gu Baiyu would rest too much during the day and not sleep well at night, so he specially ordered the kitchen to stew a soothing soup.
At this time, she came in with soup, and Lingyu immediately stopped her mouth and retreated silently.
"What is your little maid fighting with you? Still avoiding me. ”
Gu Baiyu took the soothing soup and frowned slightly.
This soothing soup has medicinal herbs added to it, and to be honest, she doesn't like it very much.
Xiao Yanlin knew her too well, and when he saw that she frowned slightly, he knew that she didn't like it, so he took the soup again, shook a spoonful and sent it to her mouth, "Be good, I'll feed you." ”
Gu Baiyu snorted lightly, "Then I'll give Master Hou a face." ”
When she said this, she laughed to herself.
She wouldn't have said such arrogant words before, she was really used to it, and her temper has grown a lot.
Xiao Yanlin didn't feel bored, he just felt that Gu Baiyu was very cute.
The two of them drank a bowl of soothing soup stickily, and Gu Baiyu muttered: "It was Lingyu who told me just now that I was afraid that there would be some trouble in the second room tonight." ”
Xiao Yanlin carried Gu Baiyu to the bed, covered the quilt for her, and patted the person in his arms.
"That's the matter of his second room, such a big person, you don't have to worry about everything, sleep."
Gu Ruan Ruan's side.
When it was time to go to sleep, I didn't think of a way.
Licorice came in with a thick quilt, "It seems to be a little cooler tonight, the slave maid will add a quilt for you." ”
Gu Ruan Ruan was worried that he didn't have a chance to meet Xiao Ruoyun......
In fact, she had just asked Licorice to find Xiao Ruoyun, and unsurprisingly, Xiao Ruoyun refused.
And now, seeing the quilt in Licorice's hand, she seems to have an idea.
"You put down the quilt and get out."
Licorice thought that Gu Ruan Ruan was in a bad mood and didn't want her to be in the house, so she left obediently.
After the licorice left, Gu Ruan Ruan didn't even look at the thick quilt, and waved it to the ground, even with the original thin quilt.
She gritted her teeth, unbuttoned her clothes one by one, and finally took off all her clothes, leaving only a belly pocket and dirty pants.
Then lie straight on the bed.
After a while, she shivered with cold.
Although it was late spring and early summer, the temperature at night was still very low, but as if she felt that it was not enough, she caught a glimpse of the cold tea at the bedside, got up again, drank half a pot of coo, and then poured all the rest of the water on herself.
Now, the wind blew gently through the crack in the door, freezing her whole body curled up on the bed.
In this way, in the middle of the night, Gu Ruan Ruan felt chills all over his body, his mouth was dry, and his throat was sore to death.
She swallowed hard, felt the smell of blood in her throat, opened her mouth, and her voice was hoarse and ugly.
"Licorice, licorice......"
Licorice, who was standing outside the door, heard that her voice was wrong and immediately opened the door.
Pushing open the door, I saw Gu Ruan Ruan only wearing a belly pocket on the bed, taking advantage of the faint light, his face burned red, but his lips were pale.
Licorice suddenly panicked: "Auntie, why don't you cover the quilt?" ”
She raised her hand in a panic and touched Gu Ruan Ruan's forehead, it was scary!
Licorice was so anxious that she stomped her foot, "Auntie, you wait, I'll go to the old housekeeper to find you a doctor!" ”
Gu Ruan Ruan stopped her with difficulty: "Don't ...... Don't go to the old housekeeper, go directly to the second master. ”
Licorice was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the quilt that fell on the ground on the side, and already understood a thing or two in his heart.
Gu Ruan Ruan Ruan did it on purpose.
She couldn't say what it was like in her heart, Gu Ruan Ruan was ruthless, and she really didn't even let go of herself......
Licorice had to hurriedly move the bedding on the bed to cover her.
"Auntie, you are wearing a dress, if the second master comes and sees it, maybe you will be suspicious."
Gu Ruan Ruan felt like she had swallowed a blade in her throat, and she waved her hand at the licorice with difficulty, "I'll wear it myself and call the second master." ”
The whole movement in the courtyard was not small, and even the main courtyard was alarmed.
Gu Baiyu had been sleeping soundly, but after sitting up, he heard Lingyu's report, and he knew it in his heart.
Gu Ruan Ruan was really unscrupulous in order to get out.
Lingyu wanted to say something, but Xiao Yanlin on the side had already pressed Gu Baiyu back to the quilt.
"Let them worry about the second room by themselves, let's sleep."
He said to Lingyu outside the door: "You also go to rest, there are secret guards guarding the courtyard, you have enough spirits to serve your wife during the day." ”
Gu Baiyu was in a daze, and was coaxed to sleep by Xiao Yan again, but the courtyard on the other side of the second room exploded.
When Xunfu heard that licorice was coming, he thought that Gu Ruan Ruan was pretending to be sick, but he didn't expect to take a look at it, and he was also taken aback.
Gu Ruan Ruan was like that, he was almost delirious, and he hurriedly went back to tell Xiao Ruoyun.
Xiao Ruoyun sent a doctor, thought about it, and finally couldn't bear it, and decided to follow over to take a look.
