After comforting the families of the soldiers, Duan Chengrui personally went to visit each of the generals to rope them in.

Not only that, Duan Chengrui had even privately won over quite a few officials to advise the Emperor, boldly refusing to let Meng Xu, who was now favored, leave. Everything was being done in a neat and orderly manner.

However, it was a pity that Duan Chengrui did not pay any attention to his, and since Gu Pingyan's door was also tightly shut, he would not interact much with anyone else. He would only rely on his ghosts to enter and exit every day, and even Duan Chengrui did not have the time to visit her.

On the second floor, Gu Danyan was leaning against the bed. His face was pale and his back was covered in cold sweat.

Whether it was her legs that were at the root of the illness or the pain in her stomach, all of this made her want to stab herself a few times. She secretly brought the soup over and wiped the sweat off her forehead, "Are you feeling better?"

"Fortunately, mother isn't here." Gu Daiyan gulped down the bowl of soup, trembling.

Regardless of whether it was a cut to the heart or an abortion or the root of a disease in her legs, it brought her a lot of side effects. Originally, she wanted to rest for a few years to improve, but now she was working hard, every day she still had to listen to the news sent by the Wind Pavilion and Duan Chenrui.

In addition to being heartbroken, Phantom Demon was worried. He quickly said, "He'll be leaving with his troops in a few more days. I've pretty much dealt with that condemned man. I'm glad that he still has a bit of friendship with his children and has agreed to make arrangements."

"That's good news." Gu Mingyan forced a smile and held onto the ghost's arm. "I'll try my best not to stop at the carriages. Even if we really start fighting, it'll be another spring day."

"You don't want anyone to know about your old ailment?" The ghost patted the back of her hand.

"There's no need to let others know. I only trust you." Gu Danyan helplessly shook her head. She didn't want to see the look in Duan Chengrui's eyes that was filled with heartache, and even more so, she didn't want other people to treat her like a porcelain doll.

The ghost nodded and agreed.

The day before the third prince left, he brought the condemned prisoner to the entrance of the market. Almost all of the citizens of Skyfire had rushed over to watch curiously, not caring that the dirt in front of the market had already been dyed a bloody brown.

Gu Daiyan retreated to the second tier and stood beside the Third Prince quietly, giving him a light nod.

The condemned prisoner had a crazed smile on his face as he was propped up under the guillotine. He shouted the moment the cloth strip on his mouth was ripped off, "Sooner or later, Navy Tide will belong to me, Jiang Yan!"

Someone still wanted to gag him, so Duan Chengrui lightly raised his hand, as if he was unable to hear the dirty words from the condemned prisoner's mouth. He could only see the hatred on the face of Navy Tide's commoners, while Duan Chengrui walked up with large strides, and the soldiers beside him suddenly quietened down.

Gu Mingyan turned to look at Duan Chenrui, her nails intentionally or unintentionally brushing past her fingertips. She could only let her gently lean on them in private as she raised her head to look at the falling ice crystals and was slightly entranced.

It's going to snow again.

"Kill him! He was the one who poisoned the well! " An old man with white hair rushed out from the crowd, but he was stopped by the soldiers outside.

This sentence was like a stone thrown into a calm lake.

People who had long since been bribed rushed out from the crowd, shouted the names of those condemned to death, and shouted angrily: "He wants our shopkeeper's secret recipe! And you still want to poison our medicinal herbs! "

"Too fake."

The ghost lightly opened its mouth next to Gu Daiyan.

Gu Liuyan only looked at the scene in front of her without saying a word. She moved closer to the ghost and stared at him with her eyes wide open, she did not know if this guidance was correct or not. The ghost only nodded at her helplessly: "But what you did was right.

The crowd cried out in alarm for this man's violence, and Duan Chengrui finally got his mouth blocked. Standing on the high platform at the entrance of the marketplace, his gaze swept over the robust men within the crowd. "He's an enemy spy, and perhaps he's not the only one."

Just as he finished his sentence, the crowd raised their arms high in anger and shouted, "Kill him! Kill him! "

The condemned criminal's eyes reddened as he looked at Duan Chengrui's back. At this moment, the three words, 'Duan Chengrui', already represented the hearts of the people, and allowed him to passionately say the words he had long since drafted on the high platform.

However, Gu Danyan's ears were very quiet and she couldn't hear any of these words.

"When this is over, we'll leave. I still remember the taste of her." Gu Liuyan said softly. While the soldiers were shouting in front of the entrance to the grocery store, she quietly left the stage. Along with the ghosts, she walked past the countless soldiers: "The feeling of being in control of a person's heart is always disgusting."

"That's what you're good at." Phantom shielded her from the probing eyes of the soldiers.

"Being good at it doesn't mean that this is what I want. Even if I don't do it, there will still be others who will do it. I want to do it even better." Gu Danyan sighed lightly as she followed ghost into the waiting carriage.

The horse carriage rolled away from the back of the crowd. Listening to the shouts of the citizens, Gu Pingyan returned to his usual cold demeanor. He looked at the people in the horse carriage and gave a faint smile: "Mr. He, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you with the rest of the matters."

The person in the carriage was precisely the person who had just returned, He Jin.

It was only after He Jin returned to Sky Flame that he found out about Gu Danyan's situation. He had wanted to go to her grave, but who would've thought that night would come and hand over the wooden box to him and tell him the truth.

And in such a noisy day, meeting Gu Tinyan was the best opportunity.

"There are some medical skills that I have never heard of before. You …"

"But these are important." Gu Liuyan interrupted him, took out the arch jade pendant from his sleeve, and handed it over to He Jin: "This is from the Wind Listening Pavilion, let them help you with everything. All of this needs to be done in the name of you and Xu Youdao."

He Jin took the jade pendant and looked at Gu Daiyan, "Of course I will do it, but the doctor is kind, we can't work for him alone."

"Everything is up to you." Gu Danyan gently pushed the back of his hand: "I believe you."

After a moment of silence, He Jin carefully received the jade pendant. He expressed that he would definitely show off his medical skills before leaving.

And Duan Chengrui's voice came from outside the carriage, "We will definitely push them back! Seize back everything that belongs to us Navy Tide! "

In the next moment, the voices of the crowd drowned out everything, and through the carriage's curtain, ghosts and ghosts could still see Duan Chengrui being escorted by the crowd as he left.

Gu Danyan, on the other hand, only had the girl who had beaten him up.

"Not bad." Gu Danyan laughed softly and put the prescription into the money pouch on his waist.
