Chapter 24 - Arsenic

Afternoon.

Steward Gu led two servants in gray robes and carried a large box into the Green Pine Academy.

When the three of them came in, Yun Qianliang was sitting in the courtyard painting some ink and paper, looking at the peony flower bed. The sunlight was shining on her from the side, shining on his white face, which was as clean as a jade plate.

”Greetings Madam.” Steward Gu walked over, stood in front and bowed his head.

”Right.” Yun Qianliang indifferently replied, she raised her eyes and looked at the peony, and continued to draw the peony that was just taking shape.

She was not someone who liked to enjoy watching flowers. Two days ago, she had casually heard the servants talk about the strange opening of the peonies in the Green Pine Academy. Only then did she know that the peonies would be thanked in the fall and she was able to see that the peonies were either specially cultivated or had survived due to the climate around them.

After making such a ruckus today, she wanted to have a serious personality, so she put on a show in the courtyard to practice her painting skills.

Steward Gu waited for a moment, ignoring the orders of the painter in front of him.

Steward Gu quietly raised his head and looked at the lady sitting upright and proper in front of her desk. Her eyes were serious and persistent, her brush strokes were slow and smooth, the key was that her hand holding the brush was steady and steady, without the slightest tremble.

Steward Gu had seen the Prime Minister paint a lot. His brush strokes were quick and clean, with a certain speed and ease, as though the Madam was so calm. The two of them had different painting habits and auras, but to his surprise, he felt that the Prime Minister's shadow appeared when the Madam was painting.

That calmness and calmness seemed to come from the depths of his bones, like he was the prime minister.

After waiting for the time it took for an incense to burn again, the tip of the brush finally came to an end.

”Madam, the doctor you want has arrived.” Steward Gu warned him.

Yun Qianliang put down her pen, and turned to look at the two servants in gray robes behind Steward Gu. The clothes were the style of the servants in Yun Xiang Mansion, and there was a big wooden chest placed between the two of them, she nodded in satisfaction.

”Well done.”

For the two of them to dress as servants of the Yun Xiang Mansion and to carry things to the Green Pine Academy, outsiders would only think that it was Yun Xiang Mansion apologizing for what happened last time and had someone bring her something good.

”Greetings Madam Gu.” A doctor and an acolyte dressed as servants came forward and bowed.

”Rise.” As Yun Qianliang said this, she took off the silk belt on her wrist that was tied around her sleeve and placed Guang Xiu down, ”Follow me.”

The two of them straightened up. The apprentice was still young, and was unable to identify her needs. Seeing her dress slowly walk to their side, they couldn't help but raise their heads to look at the person with the pleasant voice.

After staying in the capital for a long time, they had heard rumors of the direct daughter of the Yun family, saying that she was a fox spirit, but there were still not many commoners who had seen her.

She had a flawless profile, beautiful and sentimental peach blossom eyes, a straight jade nose, tender red lips, and a slender porcelain neck. She was unbelievably beautiful.

This wasn't a fox spirit, this was clearly the descent of a fox immortal.

The doctor gave his disciple a hard tug to prevent him from offending his benefactor.
