"A dignified imperial concubine of the imperial concubine who traveled thousands of miles to diagnose a woman's illness in a mountain village. How should I inform my imperial brother?"
Duan Chengxuan refused in a single go in front of the other officers.
"It was my teacher who taught me martial arts. I diagnosed his mother's illness and brought him back to see his mother. What's wrong with that?" Gu Liuyan's face was sullen. He was holding a fire in his heart. He was anxious, and his voice was getting louder.
Phantom knelt at the side, not saying a word.
After considering the situation, they all stepped forward to dissuade Gu Danyan: "Her Royal Highness, the prince is right. How could the people of the royal family easily go and treat a mountain village lady's illness? Not to mention, what master said just now doesn't make sense."
The other aides saw that Gu Danyan was silent, and quickly gave their advice.
In his heart, however, he didn't understand why Gu Liuyan was so persistent about such a small matter. She hadn't even seen her ghost mother once, not to mention the fact that the two of them were so far away from each other.
At this point of time, Phantom Demon tightly clenched his fists, his eyes turning red.
Even the words of the Crown Princess couldn't convince the king at all.
Right at this moment, a light smile leaked out of the corner of Gu Danyan's mouth as he looked at Duan Chengxuan and said, "As the wangfei, I have done a lot of things that the Imperial Family didn't do. You can't stop me."
Duan Chengxuan frowned. He never liked such an arrogant appearance from Tantai Yan, so he looked at the ghost with a dark expression. "I won't let go, what should I do?"
"Of course I have to look for another method." Gu Danyan turned around and pulled the ghost up from the ground: "I don't like to let people lose their feelings. If I bring the ghost to his hometown, could you promise me one thing?"
"Gu Liuyan, this king has pampered you too much these days." Duan Cheng Xuan slapped the table and stood up, and she felt that Gu Xuan holding onto the hand of a ghost was slightly eye piercing. "Do you know how many people are eyeing you now? How much information does this duke want to receive through you?"
"I know." Gu Danyan also looked at him with bright eyes: "But as long as you are a man of your word, even if I am absent for half a year, when I return, they will definitely come to find me and clear up our relationship. It has only been a month since we have been back and forth."
"Time waits for me." Duan Chengxuan said in a low voice.
"Life isn't for people." Gu Danyan clenched his Phantom Ghost tightly and said, "I have left for a month, so I will be working twice as hard when I come back."
Duan Chengxuan couldn't win against her, and now he even had a headache. "Then what condition did you want to raise just now?"
"If I bring a ghost with me, you can't blame me." Gu Liuyan's eyes lit up.
"Not only that, I'll give him back his freedom." Duan Chengxuan was infuriated in his heart as he waved his sleeve and sat down. "But if I find out that he leaked half a secret, then I won't be able to keep him."
Ghostly expressions filled with panic. However, Gu Pingyan pulled Ghastly to his side with a smile as he sneered at Duan Cheng Xuan. "You didn't want him because he had a kinship relationship with you?"
"Yes." Duan Chengxuan's face was gloomy, and he actually didn't care about face in the slightest.
Gu Daiyan gritted his teeth and realized that Duan Cheng Xuan was exceptionally cold when faced with these matters.
Cheng Shan, who was standing by the side, merely frowned. It seemed that he was already used to this kind of thing.
She could only pull the ghost away with large strides. She did not care about the pouring rain, and quickly went to the Phoenix Cry Garden to pick up some precious herbs and quite a few other tonics in case she needed them.
"Your Highness Princess …" "I …" He stood on the side nervously and could only watch as Gu Liuyan got busy.
"Where is your home?" As Gu Mingyan was tidying up the room, the beautiful lady rushed in from outside and said in a low voice, "Chengshan is here with his men."
As expected.
No matter how merciless Duan Chengxuan was, he was a person that had been raised by him in the end, so it was impossible for him to easily abandon him.
"Qing Di, prepare a carriage for me. I want to enter the palace."
With that, Gu Danyan walked around the screen and changed into a clean set of clothes. He took the oil parachute and walked outside: "Where?"
The ghost was stunned for a moment, then whispered: "Yue Shan City, 50 miles to the south, Chang Ping Village."
"When the rain stops, we will leave." Gu Daiyan walked beside Qing Dai, her mind filled with endless thoughts.
The only thing that left a deep impression was that there were a few hot springs in the city, and the phoenix had the courage to appear in the city after a thousand years. Other than that, the city itself was a city of poverty, not to mention the mountains and rocks around it, it was also windy and rainy.
Yue Shan City was indeed not a lucky city.
However, the Yue Shan City was vast, and in the northeast region, it was a stronghold. From a hundred to two hundred miles away, it was camped.
When she arrived at the empress dowager's chambers, she had only carefully checked the empress dowager's pulse and knew that her back was always sore during these rainy days. After all, she had given birth to Duan Chengxuan when she was middle-aged, and the difference in the ages of her two sons was huge.
"It's probably raining heavily these days. Did the empress dowager ever think of leaving this time to soak in a hot spring in Yueshan City?" After all, the empress dowager couldn't take out the charcoal brazier this summer, so she could only simmer it.
The empress dowager raised an eyebrow and asked, "Yue Shan City?"
"Yes, the hot spring in Yue Shan City is very famous. Moreover, when I heard that medicinal ingredients like phoenix gall could be found there, I always wanted to go there. If the empress dowager doesn't mind, how about going with me?" Gu Danyan clapped his hands with a smile, looking like a kid who wanted to go out and play.
"Phoenix gall?" Her Majesty frowned.
Senior Servant Gui, who was standing next to her, also looked curiously at Gu Meiyan. After some hesitation, she said, "This phoenix gall is a divine medicine, how could Your Highness …"
"If Your Highness wishes to do so, I wish to make a trip." Gu Liuyan could only smile helplessly. "Empress Dowager, please don't tell the prince. Otherwise, if I can't find him, the prince will scold me."
Every time he spoke of Duan Chenxuan, Gu Liuyan restrained her child's temperament and lowered her head heavily.
All these years, she had been staring at Duan Chengxuan, so she naturally knew that he had been searching for the best medicine in the world just to make a medicine for Su Yu Wan. She had even secretly sent people to search for Jade Dragon Snow and Phoenix Bile.
However, when the empress dowager saw that Gu Liuyan was obviously intending to surprise Duan Chengxuan, she liked it even more. "Then let's go. We'll just see if that hot spring can cure my back."
"Really?" Gu Danyan opened his eyes wide and laughed: "Of course it's good. Then we can't delay this any longer. I will go gather some things first and leave after the rain stops."
"Why did you leave first?" Senior Servant Gui thought that she'd go with the empress dowager.
"Although a hot spring is good, I still need to add a few medicinal herbs to soak in it. I can only use it once every six hours." Gu Danyan spoke earnestly, with Senior Servant Gui praising her. Even the empress dowager was growing increasingly fond of her exquisite heart.
