He put on his inner clothes and continued to wipe his hair.
At the same time, Duan Chengxuan also changed out of his bloodstained clothes. Compared to Gu Liuyan's bedraggled appearance, he didn't have a single bruise on his body.
"Have you seen enough?" Duan Chengxuan found another set of clean clothes.
"Not bad." Gu Daiyan quickly retracted her gaze. She could only lie stiff on the chair and raise her head to stare at the ceiling. Why hadn't Yin Gou and Qin Di brought the clothes over yet?
"The Emperor is currently thoroughly inspecting the matter of the Fourth Prince's injury. He's currently inspecting the items in the carriages. I've explained it to Silver Gou for a long time before they're willing to believe that the poison isn't the one that we brought in. Only then did we arrive late."
"But it does contain poison." Gu Dai Yan looked at her helplessly. Qing Di only shook her head and placed a set of clothes beside her.
She was wearing a yellow jumbled dress. Gu Daiyan looked at her strangely and said, "This set isn't mine."
"Master Gu took this out from Miss Zixian's box, and told me to inform Princess Consort that in the future, you must have a firm foothold in the Prince's Mansion, you absolutely cannot be outclassed by Su Yuwan. Also, Master said that you must not ride a horse in the future, it's improper." Qing Dai tidied up her clothes and handed them over.
Gu Daiyan could only obediently change into the yellow-colored robe and allow Qing Dai to tie her hair into a bun and put on some light makeup. The people in the mirror were completely different.
After changing her clothes, she arranged the rest of her things and returned to the platform. There were still people busy in the forest, and the emperor had also returned to his seat, seemingly instructing her on something.
She sat beside Duan Chengxuan and felt her stomach rumbling with hunger. She was only half-supporting her face as she asked Qing Dai, "Where's Yin Gou?"
"Go get some food for you, bring it back immediately." Gu Pingyan smiled and pulled her along, "In a while, I will call Cheng Er back. I want to learn how to ride a horse in a bit."
"Alright." "Yes." Caidie nodded in understanding. She noticed that Duan Chengxuan was staring at Gu Daiyan, so she quickly lowered her head and retreated to the side, not daring to raise her head.
Gu Danyan followed her gaze and saw Duan Chengxuan's dark expression. He asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"You're not allowed to ride on horses. Come with me to the tent later and see how Yu'er will get rid of the poison." Duan Cheng Xuan looked at her.
"Big brother Xuan, can't you just directly let Mu Qing go?" Why did you ask Sister Gu to come over? " Su Yu Wan's hands froze and she quickly looked over.
Gu Liuyan nodded as well, but Duan Cheng Xuan glared at him. She could only nod and agree.
Su Yuwan's face revealed a sense of loss, but when Duan Chengxuan saw this, he could only comfort her with a soft voice.
After a while, the Emperor left the main seat, and Duan Chengxuan brought her along with him. As they walked along the road, Gu Daiyan teased with a smile, "Your highness knew that the Emperor wanted to go as well, so it's inconvenient for you to bring Mu Qing along with Su Yu Wan. That's why you called me."
"So what?" Duan Chengxuan turned to the side and looked at her. Gu Mingyan usually had a pure and innocent appearance, but he was always able to react to his intentions in an instant.
"Nothing much. I just feel that you are protecting Lady Wan-Er like this. Have you ever thought about how you would understand?" She will only feel that you trust me more than Mu Qing, who is by her side. He might even think that you've fallen for me and don't want her anymore. " Gu Danyan walked forward leisurely. Sure enough, he could see that on a small path to the side, the Emperor was currently leading his men there. He was only slightly hidden.
Looks like this matter was extremely profound. Duan Chengxuan probably hoped that Su Yu Wan wouldn't be able to hear anything. He also didn't wish for Mu Qing to tell her these secrets either.
Unfortunately, although he knew how to protect Su Yu Wan, Su Yu Wan might not understand.
"Wan-Er is righteous, different from you." Duan Cheng Xuan refuted her.
Gu Danyan just laughed a few times and didn't say anything.
When they arrived at the tent, the emperor was already sitting at the side. He waved his hand to stop them from bowing, and then his gaze landed on Gu Daiyan: "You said that Yu'er's body has not been cleared of the poison and the wild boar has also eaten the poison. The horse that we found Yu'er on earlier is already dead, but there isn't the slightest trace of poison."
"Your majesty, not all poisons in this world can be found with any traces. Some poisons can't kill wild boars, but they can still make them irritable. Horses are also the same." In addition, I would like to ask, why was the fourth prince poisoned before? What poison? And what kind of medicinal formula was used to cure it? " Gu Danyan took a step forward and bent over to look at him.
Duan Chengyu had already woken up, but he was tired and didn't want to speak.
Gu Danyan sighed lightly and only took a single antidote before taking out all the silver needles. She pouted and said to Duan Chengxuan, "Help him sit up, I want to prick him."
Duan Chengxuan took a step forward and half knelt on the edge of the bed as he helped him up and said, "Four months ago, he led troops to exterminate the bandits. The Second Leader was a disciple of the Poison Sect of the martial world, and before he died, he used a poison knife to stab Yu'er in the shoulder.
Gu Daiyan took off his shirt, and sure enough, he saw a wound running through his shoulder.
She rubbed her fingertips together before giving him the acupuncture. Duan Chengyu frowned as she continued to ask, "I found the doctor who concocted the medicine for the Fourth Prince a month ago, and I'm sure he'll be able to find out something."
"What do you mean?" The emperor immediately stood up, his eyes red.
Just look at the amount of time this poison has. Mo Yu had already administered it a month ago, and if the fourth prince had returned a few days before my wedding with the Jing King, it would be about time for him to return. Gu Liuyan continued to stab the needle. Her fingertips were steady, and each of the needles' strength was just right. However, she continued to stare unblinkingly.
"There's actually such a thing!" The emperor was even more infuriated.
Duan Chengxuan's face was dark as well, but he didn't quite believe Gu Daiyan. "You're sure of the time the poison will be administered?"
"Of course, the concealment of this poison requires a certain amount of time if no one and myself are to be aware of it. So long as we calculate it from the current situation of the poison, we will be able to find out." Gu Liuyan said casually.
The other two imperial physicians in the tent glanced at each other, feeling that this Crown Prince Jing had some ability.
"Men, according to what Princess Jing said, find all the people who prescribed medicine for Yu'er here for me!" In addition, the purpose of this hunt is to sacrifice the heavens for the victims and stay for three days, so that a few small ones can enter the hunting grounds to hunt. The Emperor instructed him softly, yet he organized everything in a neat and orderly manner.
Gu Danyan was also looking at her in a different light and did not notice in the slightest that Duan Chengxuan had been looking at her from the start.
