C54 (1/2)
After returning to the Qi manor, Qi Lin naturally couldn't avoid a beating and went to kneel at the ancestral hall.
By the time he finally got back to his room at night, the window had been gently pushed open. Cheng Er and Gu Daiyan entered the Qi Residence again at night. This time, they sent Gu Daiyan directly to the door of Qi Lin's room.
Gu Danyan quickly jumped in and threw all the Gold Sore Medicine at him, ”Your sister is worried about you, so she repeatedly asked me to come and bring you the medicine.”
Qi Lin rubbed his butt, grimacing in pain. ”Let's not talk about this first, did your sister agree?”
”I agreed to it when I got the bracelet, but she said that Misty Rain Pavilion will be yours from now on. She can be your helper.” Gu Danyan then took out a few needles and jade bottles and handed them over to him, ”Today, I came to the Gu household and saw that your elder sister is a bit poisoned, so you should be careful.”
”What!” Qi Lin suddenly stood up, and his facial features scrunched up in pain.
”You have to resolve this matter yourself, but Duan Chengxuan won't allow me to continue meddling in this matter. If you have any matters in the estate, you can come look for your elder sister in the Medicine Pavilion at any time. I'll be returning first.” Gu Danyan quickly and carefully flipped it out. His movements were a bit comical. Luckily, only 12% of the people knew martial arts, so they were able to leave quietly.
He didn't return to the medicine house, but directly returned to the manor.
As soon as he returned to Phoenix Cry Garden, Cheng Yi immediately told Duan Chengxuan about what had happened in the Qi Residence. Meanwhile, Gu Danyan immediately locked herself in her room and dismissed everyone around her.
”Chengyi, are you sure that Princess Hua-Yang is helping the Qi siblings for the sake of working with Misty Rain Pavilion in the future?” Duan Chengxuan put down his cup.
”I'm quite sure that the Qi siblings have also agreed to Princess Hua-Yang's five or three times mentioned.”
Right now, Misty Rain Pavilion was working for him, but on the surface, they didn't have much contact with him. If Gu Mingyan approached him in her own name, not only would she be able to exchange information immediately, she would also be able to publicly give Misty Rain Pavilion some benefits, making Old Man Qi Ming believe him even more.
But... He didn't believe Gu Danyan at all. What if Gu Danyan deliberately leaked the news from Misty Rain Pavilion?
He thought for a moment and decided to investigate Gu Tinyan and see if she was worth it.
In the dead of night, the Phoenix Cry Garden was in a state of depression.
Duan Chengxuan arrived at the room's door, but before he even knocked, he heard the sound of many things dropping to the ground from within, and accompanying it was the sound of heavy but irregular breathing.
”Prince …” Cheng Shan glanced at Duan Chengxuan.
”You can leave first.” Duan Chengxuan frowned. He didn't know what Gu Mingyan was doing in the room again!
Duan Chengxuan had already fiercely kicked open the door in front of him, so it was obvious that a scream came from Gu Pingyan. Duan Chengxuan only walked closer leisurely, and as he looked at the figure that was concealed in the darkness, he was momentarily speechless.
Gu Liuyan was curled up in a corner, the side effects of the Ninjutsu Grass made her completely dazzled, and even if she squinted her eyes, she couldn't tell who it was. She could only raise the knife in her hand, grab a jade bottle with her trembling hands, and continue feeding the antidote to her throat.
No one would come at this point.
”You are pointing a knife at This King?” Duan Cheng Xuan walked towards her.
