When Duan Chengxuan returned and saw Gu Daiyan leaning on the bed, he was truly shocked.
Gu Danyan, who had been carrying the woman outside the whole time, was finally able to relax a little. He saw that Gu Danyan was lying on the bed with a pale face, and his wrist looked even thinner than it used to be.
"My prince, the reason for the princess' depression seems to be because of her mood."
"She's perfectly fine, why is she in such a depressed mood? Furthermore, her body is getting worse every day. Why is she doing this?" Duan Cheng Xuan's gaze turned cold as well.
One of the slightly younger ones stood up and said, "Even though Crown Princess Jing is a woman, her medical skills aren't any less than ours. She is an expert in the field of medicine, but every day she would think of how to prepare a prescription for a poor family to eat so they could also eat medicine. Just this point alone, she doesn't know how much effort she has put in."
One of the doctors at the side quickly pulled her over and whispered, "A long time ago, the wangfei said she couldn't sleep well, and four hours of sleep a day was her limit. Although it has been a few days, she has always worked hard on it, and if the prince really cares, why not let her rest for a few days …"
The few doctors from the Hall of Mercenaries had all interacted with Gu Daiyan before. This wangfei did not have any airs, good medical skills, and a kind heart. However, she had never had any rest like them.
After hearing what he said, Duan Chengxuan was also stunned.
He also didn't seem to know what Gu Danyan did when she was resting. He didn't even seem to see how she did it when she was resting.
As he thought up to this point, Duan Chengxuan only received the prescription and instructed the Hall of Purging World to send someone over every day before returning with Gu Danyan in his arms.
It was only when it was late into the night that Gu Daiyan finally woke up and saw Duan Chengxuan sitting on the edge of the bed. He was also baffled as he said, "Why are you sitting here so late at night?"
"You don't remember anything?" Duan Chengxuan patted her on the forehead and pulled her up from the bed. The people outside the door had already gone to get the steaming hot food.
"Remember what?" Gu Danyan rubbed his brow, his body was very tired.
She remembered coming back from the Listening Wind Pavilion, and it seemed like she had climbed into bed, but she had no memory of it after that.
Seeing her contemplative expression, Duan Chengxuan pulled his into his embrace. "I even brought you to the Hall of Purging World, but you still haven't woken up. It's probably because you've worked too hard these past few days, don't you think it's better to find a place to rest?"
"Where can I rest?" Gu Danyan tilted his head as he thought about it. There was actually no place he wanted to go.
"Do you normally have anything you want to go to, or do?" Duan Cheng Xuan looked at her.
Gu Liuyan was silent for a long time. He rubbed his head and shook his head.
Usually, the young miss of the rich family liked to sing poems against each other, while the daughters of some merchants preferred to go to the clothing store to learn rouge. There were also some people who liked to go to the theater every day or to find craftsmen to learn some things.
However, other than her medical book, Gu Mingyan couldn't seem to find anything else she liked. She could only scratch her ears and scratch his cheeks. After being silent for a while, she still couldn't think of anything.
"I know that there are a lot of doctors in this small village. How about I send someone to take you there for a few days to play?" Duan Chengxuan could only suggest, "That small village only took two days to travel, and there are many herbs there as well. You must like them."
"How's the scenery?" Gu Danyan's eyes lit up a little, but he did want to go.
"The scenery is pleasing to the eyes. There were many imperial physicians who had come from there before, and there were also many top scholars who came out. The place is filled with the sounds of books, it wasn't noisy at all." Duan Chengxuan put in a lot of effort as well and sent people to investigate the situation there.
It sounds like a great place to rest.
Gu Liuyan thought about it for a while and realized that he had been involved in too many things in the recent days. He agreed immediately and said: "You probably won't be able to get out of this, come with me."
"When the time comes, I can bring you back. There's no rush."
Gu Pingyan let out a sigh of relief after getting the answer. In these few days, she could think about where she would go from now on.
"However, in the next few days, I should stay here and rest my body first." Duan Cheng Xuan lightly kneaded her palm.
"We can't leave, of course. I want to hear what exactly is Gu Cheng planning." As Gu Liuyan spoke, she suddenly recalled that Duan Chengxuan had already met with Gu Sheng and hurriedly asked, "How was your conversation with Gu Sheng earlier? Did he mention anything?"
"Just as you said before, Gu Sheng truly had a bad feeling about this. He's the same as his father, but he's even more talented than Gu Cheng." When he saw that someone had already delivered food to him at the door, he only brought Gu Pingyan to the table and added some soup for her before continuing, "What he wants me to do is eliminate all the princes and force the Emperor to abdicate."
"What a vicious heart." Gu Danyan immediately frowned and took the bowl of soup from Duan Chengxuan. "However, this way, the Emperor has no choice but to do this for the sake of his own life."
"Moreover, he hoped to kill Yu'er. He said that the Third Prince did not wish to do anything to her." As he spoke of the Third Prince, Duan Chengxuan glanced at Gu Danyan.
On the other hand, Gu Danyan's expression did not change, but he was slightly lost in thought: "Then what does Your Highness want to do?"
"I will win this battle for the storage space fair and square."
"That's good." Only then did Gu Danyan laugh as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
There were only three dishes on the table, and the dead tree outside the window was enjoying the sight of Qing Yue. It didn't seem to be lonely at all, it was filled with warmth.
Only a few days later, Duan Chengxuan went to see Gu Cheng alone, but when he returned, his face was gloomy. Gu Pingyan had no choice but to put down the book in his hands and ask, "What did father say?"
"I've already agreed to work with him." Duan Chengxuan sat down helplessly. When he saw Gu Daiyan's slightly shocked expression, he continued, "But I won't really kill all of Imperial Brother's children. I only promised him that I won't leave Third Prince behind when the time comes."
Gu Liuyan was even more surprised: "He is your brother's son after all."
"Do you have any feelings for him?" Before he could even react, his hand had already pinched Gu Danyan's chin, and his voice was low and low as he warned, "Third Prince and I have an irresistible force. Between the two of us, there is only one person who can stay. Do you understand?"
Gu Danyan looked at Duan Chengxuan's expression and only coldly said, "Why don't you think about why you're so certain that the Third Prince is your relative and my father isn't related to you in the slightest."
"So you can even abandon your own biological father?" After Duan Chengxuan finished speaking, he was slightly regretful.
However, Gu Mingyan's expression had already changed, and she instantly recalled the matter with Yun Dian. She immediately waved away Duan Cheng Xuan's hand. "Since I know the result, then I should go out and relax."
