Duan Chengxuan stood by the door, and when Fairy Qing saw him, she could only retreat to the side.

Gu Danyan only wore a yellow robe today, and his hair was tied up high. He had smeared makeup on his face for the sake of seeing Qi Rou, and the medicinal dregs on his fingertip had not been cleaned up yet, yet he had caused Duan Chengxuan to stare with rapt attention.

Their eyes met, yet Gu Daiyan's eyes were not as clear as they had been at the start, but they were still filled with a hint of a smile.

"Does Your Highness want to come with me to the Everlasting Fragrance Pavilion?" Gu Daiyan did not stop walking. He lowered his eyes and carefully cleaned the medicinal dregs on his fingers one by one.

There were too many dregs in the house. She was used to washing her hands with water from the dregs. This time, she was in too much of a hurry so she kept some.

"I heard you have some medicine that can cure Wan'er's cough." Duan Chengxuan walked in and pulled her back. "I'll come personally."

"Sure." Gu Daiyan pulled Duan Chengxuan's hand down without leaving a trace.

Duan Chengxuan wasn't angry, and he only followed her into the room to see her rummaging through the cabinet to look for those random medicinal bottles.

On the other side, he had a careful look at every corner of Phoenix Cry Garden. The remaining vases and antiques had all been sent to Gu Zixian's Qingfeng Courtyard, and the rest of the furnishings had all been given to him after entering the residence with Litchi Bay.

Now that the shelves were filled with wooden boxes, one could easily tell that they were all types of medicinal herbs.

"Found it." Gu Danyan stretched half of her body into the wardrobe and took out a palm-sized wooden box from below. Inside was a few packets of herbs: "Mr. He's portion can only be done in the future. Blue Dai, tell Cheng to buy some more herbs."

Gu Danyan passed the wooden box in his hand to Duan Chengxuan.

Only then did he continue walking outside, and Duan Cheng Xuan followed closely behind. After leaving the courtyard door, he passed the wooden box to Cheng Shan.

"I haven't seen you taking out any silver from the mansion recently. Where did you buy all these medicinal herbs?"

"I took them directly from the Hall of World. When I made medicine for them, they gave me the herbs and even gave me some silver. I've already earned a few hundred taels and sent them to the warehouse." On the other hand, Gu Danyan walked out naturally.

"A warehouse?" Duan Cheng Xuan walked shoulder to shoulder with her and turned her face to look at her.

"When I bought the medicinal materials earlier, I spent more than 1,000 silver. I'll return it to you now." Gu Liuyan also turned her head to look at him.

Since she wanted to return the favor in the future, she didn't want to leave anyone alive. She had to return the money.

Duan Chengxuan didn't say anything and only accompanied her to the main entrance of the estate before grabbing her wrist. "Wait until after Yu'er's wedding, I'll accompany you back to the Yun clan."

"Alright, I will remember to ask someone to make some pastries later." Gu Daiyan answered without thinking, and then waved her over to let her follow.

Duan Chengxuan rode his horse out of the city to take a look.

Qing Dai followed closely behind Gu Daiyan. She did not know how the two of them had managed to be so amiable today. She could not help but ask, "Princess, have you really fallen in love with the Prince?"

"Yes or no, it doesn't matter." Gu Dai Yan chuckled and stopped her words.

As soon as she finished speaking, Qing Dai pulled her into a nearby alley. Gu Daiyan staggered a few steps and saw that something had happened at the Hundred Taste Tower. The people in the city panicked and wanted to run away, but Qing Dai only took off her coat and covered Gu Daiyan's head.

"Isn't that …"

"The Prince had instructed that only Mirage would be able to cause trouble in the Heaven Flame. Since the target is you, then we can't go over. I'll pretend that you are sick, so we'll make a trip to the Apocalypse Temple first." Qing Dai lightly pressed on Gu Daiyan's back and led her to the Hall of Reparations.

The Everlasting Taste Tower was filled with noises, and Gu Daiyan wanted to stop walking. However, it was unknown where she got the strength from, so she lowered her voice and continued, "This is all for your own good."

"Since when did you stand by the prince's side?" Gu Mingyan's heart was uneasy, and he was even more afraid that something bad was going to happen to Hundred Taste Tower.

"As long as it's for your own good, it doesn't matter what Qing Dai stands over there. Moreover, today the prince suddenly came to ask for a cough medicine, so the wangfei thinks that whoever it is wants to drag you down doesn't come to Hundred Taste Tower." Fairy Qingmei brought her against the current as she lowered her voice even more.

"Su Yu Wan? "Her goal is me, right? Why are you holding me back …" Gu Gongyan hadn't even finished speaking when he suddenly recalled the biggest change in their relationship, "Her goal is the Fourth Prince … Just because the Fourth Prince is protecting me? "

"It is possible, but no matter what, the target will still be you, whether it is her or the people from the Mirage."

Qing Dai spoke with such seriousness that Gu Qing Yan had a whole new level of respect for her.

Now that he thought about it, every time Qing Dai encountered something, she would remain calm, and her analysis of the situation was even more organized.

If she had really entered Hundred Flavors Tower just now, she was afraid that the assailant would have turned towards her. Duan Chengyu was able to protect himself, but no matter what, he could not protect two people.

The two of them quickly left, but bumped into the person in front of them for no reason.

Qi Lin and Gu Liuyan covered their heads and retreated. When they saw each other, they were shocked.

Qi Lin shouted, "Why are you here! Hurry and go back to the Duke Palaces to call for help! "

The figure that fell down was Duan Chengyu. When he saw Gu Daiyan, he was slightly surprised, but he still continued: "Sixth brother's army is right beside us, they should be able to see what's going on here."

Qing Dai gently pushed Gu Daiyan's head down and hid in the crowd, not forgetting to pull Qi Lin along as well.

"Are we going to run away?" Qi Lin shouted.

"Go find the Sixth Prince's soldiers. I'll go help the Fourth Prince." Gu Danyan took off the coat over his head and threw it to the side.

"Princess!" Didn't I just say … " Qing Dai didn't have time to catch Gu Daiyan, but she didn't dare to carelessly go over and be a burden. She had no choice but to lead Qi Lin to the Sixth Prince's army.

The few black-clothed men followed behind Duan Chengyu and jumped down. Gu Daiyan gripped the knife in his sleeve tightly — it was the knife that Duan Chengye had given her.

It was incomparably sharp, and it was even tempered with poison.

As for Duan Chengyu, he was barely able to block their long sabers and short swords, and his mind was in a whirl. Luckily, Gu Xiuyan's detoxification pill had already been swallowed, otherwise, he would not be able to stand properly right now.

However, the men in black seemed to have seen something as they changed their direction and headed towards Gu Daiyan.

"Damn it!" Duan Chengyu cursed in a low voice and quickly rushed to Gu Mingyan's side. However, he was pushed down by Gu Meiyan instead, the strangely shaped bottle in his hand smashed onto the ground and exploded, scattering dust everywhere.

The smell of gunpowder permeated the air as Duan Chengyu's eyes widened under Gu Daiyan's body, causing his nose to be filled with the smell of gunpowder.

Sixth Prince and the soldiers of Prince Jing's mansion rushed over one after another, but the scene in front of them was a complete mess.
