At the same time, Su Yuwan wasn't the only one who knew that Gu Liuyan was going to die.
Almost everyone, from the empress dowager to the commoners, knew of this news.
The empress dowager immediately cried her heart out, causing even the emperor to be surprised. After all, Gu Pingyan had made a great contribution to the epidemic, and he himself was a great genius, needless to say how much the imperial family owed the Yun family. Now that he had arrived, he could only take responsibility for the Yun family, saying that the Yun family had been slandered by someone and had settled the matter hastily.
And in the outside world, Crown Princess Jing was just talking after dinner. But when people were about to die, the people would only think of her goodness.
The Jing King Manor had been searching for a genius doctor to extend Gu Panyan's life, but how many capable people in this world could possibly be more skilled than the descendants of the Yun clan? Even when a list was posted, there was not a shred of hope for a few days.
In Phoenix's Cry Garden, Gu Pingyan opened the box in his hands and looked at the pills inside. He frowned: "These are fake pills?"
"Yes, Wan'er doesn't want to see you, nor can she wait for you to leave." Mu Qing shook his head. "Take it before Dong Ri. You'll wake up three days later. You can still spend a winter outside."
Gu Daiyan smiled and felt the cold wind outside the window: "Before winter? It's only been two days. "
"Enough." Mu Qing took back the embroidered box. "I heard that Your Highness will be coming to your place in the next few days. I'll help you store the embroidered box."
Gu Liuyan only nodded but didn't say anything.
Every time she and Duan Chengxuan came over, Duan Chengxuan would sit there for a few hours before leaving. The two of them looked at each other in silence, as she did not want to talk about worldly matters, so she only ordered the maidservants to send the medicinal herbs from the medicine house to Zheng Qiankun bit by bit, so that Zheng Qiankun could gift them to those who needed them in the future.
After Mu Qing left, Duan Chengxuan walked in before he had even taken off his official uniform.
Gu Daiyan originally had no appetite for delicious food on the table, but when she saw Duan Cheng Xuan sit down facing her, she didn't know whether or not she should put down her chopsticks.
"Is today's food still not to your liking?" Duan Chengxuan frowned and lightly raised his hand.
Gu Danyan didn't say anything as he stared blankly at the people coming and going, changing the dishes on the table.
"It'll be winter in two days. On the first day of winter, the empress invited many people to admire the chrysanthemums." Duan Cheng Xuan looked at her.
"No need. The days are getting cold and my legs are not convenient. If I were to go and provoke something, it would only make things worse." Gu Liuyan said as she rubbed her legs. These few days, she didn't even want to get up. The root of her illness was quite a headache.
Yet, she chose to send away the people she cared about the most.
Duan Chengxuan only nodded. "Then I won't go, tomorrow …"
"I feel more and more tired these two days, so don't look for any doctor for me. I naturally know how much I have." Gu Daiyan impatiently interrupted Duan Chengxuan's words.
After a long period of silence, Duan Chengxuan put down his chopsticks and said, "When you went out to relax, did you already know about the matters concerning your body?"
"I already knew that long before I went to the White Horse Temple." Gu Liuyan raised his hand and gently placed it on his abdomen, "Since the blood of my Yun clan can cure illnesses, if we lose a lot of it, it will naturally harm our foundation."
Duan Chengxuan's hands stopped moving, and his heart sank as well.
That child...
However, when she looked at Gu Danyan, she took her hand away as if nothing had happened and started eating, "Consider this as me betraying your cooperation with the Third Prince and owing you something. In these two days, why don't you make me happy?"
"Then... What do you want to do? "
"I want to see the fireworks, then go out and see the juggling and live an ordinary life." As Gu Liuyan spoke, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She raised her hand and gently caressed the side of Duan Chengxuan's face. "I've thought about this for a long time, and have finally thought of something."
"What?" Duan Chengxuan lightly held the back of her hand.
"Sometimes, letting go of something is more lovable than obsession." Then, Gu Daiyan went back to his meal.
Duan Chengxuan was completely confused by what he heard, but now, other than staying by Gu Danyan's side, he didn't seem to have any other way of making up for it. After a while, he continued, "Do you still have any feelings for the Gu family? If you are willing, I can become the backing of the Gu family and the Yun family in the future. "
"As long as you don't harm the Yun clan, that's good. I don't care about the Gu family at all. If you deserve to die in the future, we'll kill you and throw you to the ground." Gu Danyan had long since known that Gu Cheng had completely abandoned her, and had not treated him as his father.
She wasn't the type to repay a grievance with virtue.
Yue Qing intended to instigate them, but now Duan Chengrui could not trust his. The things that Gu Cheng had done back then would naturally come with cause and effect, and she would not interfere.
Duan Cheng Xuan nodded.
At night, Gu Daiyan leaned heavily against Duan Chengxuan's chest and fell asleep. It was rare for him to not have a nightmare lingering around him.
Duan Chengxuan stayed up all night, wondering if he had killed too many people on the battlefield, and now all the karma was being repaid to his lover.
On the morning of the second day, both of them changed into civilian clothes and went out on the streets.
Gu Liuyan coughed a little, but she couldn't stand up often, so she followed Duan Chengxuan back and forth leisurely. From time to time, she would look for something interesting to sit on the side of the road, which made her feel rather satisfied.
However, with the passing of the day, Gu Danyan could not help but dream before he went to sleep.
If she was not the Prime Minister's daughter and a descendant of the Yun Family when she transmigrated, Duan Chengxuan wouldn't have the obsession of Su Yu Wan, and he wasn't a prince either. Perhaps they would be able to travel the world in their lives, see the scenery around them, and enjoy life for themselves.
Thinking of this, she also fell into a deep sleep.
On the second night, she persuaded Duan Chengxuan, "My body isn't well, so it's rather depressing for you to sleep with me."
"You look good today. Are you in a good mood?" Duan Chengxuan only followed her instructions. Moreover, he just so happened to have time to ask Cheng Shan about matters concerning the doctor.
"Naturally." Gu Danyan smiled, took down her silver hairpin and gave it to him, "Father said that this silver hairpin was left to me by my mother, and I'll leave it in your custody from now on."
Duan Chengxuan smiled as he brought along the silver hairpin and left in satisfaction.
Gu Danyan watched his back as he left. A moment later, Mu Qing walked in with a brocade box. The smile on her face was also wiped away as she stroked his white clothes and took the brocade box from Mu Qing before taking the pill.
"Thank you very much." Gu Danyan chuckled.
"I'll never see you again." Mu Qing left with the empty brocade box. In his heart, he was thinking, for the sake of Su Yu Wan's beauty, is it really that good to do all these heartless things?
Gu Danyan, on the other hand, frowned. She took out another pill from the drawer and consumed it. Before she closed her eyes, a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes.
Su Yuwan really thought that she didn't know that she had done anything to this fake death pill.
