The whip wound on his back and the wound under his collarbone had healed completely, leaving only the horrifying scars.
If one looked carefully, there seemed to be many small wounds on Gu Danyan's body, but most of the serious injuries had come from the prince's mansion. Duan Chengxuan silently helped her change the medicine and lightly helped her put on her clothes.
"If I were you, I would never give such a man a chance to approach me."
Being surprised by Duan Chengxuan's words, Gu Pingyan lowered his head and tidied up his clothes. "Love is indeed a strange thing. If you want to go back on your word and leave now, I won't say anything."
"But this opportunity is too precious." Duan Chengxuan pulled his into his embrace. "I don't even know how to make it up to you."
"Then tell me the news of the third prince attacking the city." Gu Danyan pushed him away a little, then continued to jump over him and put on his shoes. "I know Qu Hao left last night, but none of you are willing to tell me anything about the front lines."
"I've asked the doctor. It's possible that you're under too much pressure and need to rest." Right now, Duan Chengxuan was like a sticky dog, hugging Gu Daiyan's waist from behind and lightly rubbing it. "You're going to sleep a bit more?"
"I slept long enough this time." Gu Mingyan turned her body to the side and pressed a hand to his forehead. "We've spent a lot of time coming back, but I haven't heard anything. Is this how you compensate for saying the wrong thing?"
"Just barely." Duan Chengxuan could only stand up, but his hands never left the other party's waist, "Let's talk after they've completely stabilized the situation. Moreover, I'll let Gu Cheng know that the reason for Third Prince's army's actions is because Su Yuwan is in cahoots with Jiang Yan."
"Looks like you're really determined to get rid of her." Gu Danyan chuckled. Ignoring the figure behind her, she went to wash up, went around the screen to change into a clean set of clothes, and then left: "Then I'll leave these things to you. I'll go find Qingze."
"Alright." Duan Cheng Xuan was still wearing her inner clothes as she stood before the basin and washed her face and rinsed her mouth.
After breakfast, Gu Daiyan was even more sure that no one wanted to let her know about the battle, even the ghosts would keep their mouths shut. He could only carry Qingze out to the streets and looked at the peace and harmony on the streets before kissing Qingze on the forehead: "Do you like people who are locked in chains?"
"I haven't." Qing Yi did not quite understand the meaning of these words.
"Then do you think the name Qingze sounds nice?" Gu Liuyan rubbed his head and walked towards several mansions and private schools on the west side of the city.
Qing Qing rubbed her head, listening to Gu Daiyan explain the meaning of her words for a long time. Finally, she nodded and clapped happily: "I like it."
"Then let's go listen to the name today, okay?" Gu Danyan's gaze landed on the door of the private school in front of her. This place had been temporarily taken care of by Qu Li. The few soldiers would only let her pass if they saw her.
"Alright." The young girl nodded obediently, broke free from Gu Daiyan's embrace, and walked in while holding her sleeve.
The thousand slaves that Jiang Yan had sent over were arriving this morning.
Although Emperor Jiang Yan had instructed them to prepare appropriate clothes for them, the shackles and shackles that should have been removed were still firmly fixed on their wrists. Two to three hundred young children were all arranged in this small private school, almost crowded.
However, they were all crowded together. They didn't dare to raise their heads without touching Qing Shui and Gu Daiyan.
The other teachers in the private school were troubled by this, they could only salute Gu Liuyan: "Your Highness."
There's no need to bow to me. I've come here today because I hope that the gentlemen can come up with a name for them. In the future, if you want to go back and find your family, they won't stop you, but first, you have to have a name. Gu Danyan lazily waved his hand. Qing Shui, on the other hand, had already grabbed the fingers of one of the slave girls. He was so shocked that the little girl didn't dare to move, nor did she dare to look at him.
Gu Danyan only smiled at this and said: "Take them off their shackles, and see what their weaknesses are. I'll take them to purchase them later."
"There are two to three hundred people here, there is no need for His Highness to personally take charge." The old gentlemen were all flattered. Even though they'd chosen Jiang Yan's royal family, there was still a difference in status.
"The war at the front line is tight. There aren't many doctors in the city, but even with my medical skills, I can't do anything about it." As Gu Liuyan spoke, she sent someone to bring out a table and chair, "Besides, Qing Qing can't just play with me, an adult, every day. There are so many kids here, it's enough to accompany him for a while."
"But these children haven't been enlightened yet. If they hurt little princess …"
"There are people watching us from the shadows. Please rest assured, gentlemen." Gu Danyan smiled sweetly and handed over a few notes to the person beside her, "Go and buy some simple candied fruits. Tell the chef not to make anything too oily at lunch. They should eat less oily food than usual.
In a short period of time, the entire private school was bustling with activity.
However, these two to three hundred children were many, but because of the usual lessons they did not dare to speak. At the very beginning, they could only hear the soft voices of Qing Shui, asking about the story, asking about family matters, and choosing a name.
On the other hand, Gu Danyan was checking people's pulse. Seeing that quite a few children were fine, he saw a skinny boy and immediately frowned: "Your hand was injured before, is it painful now?"
"It doesn't hurt." the boy said quickly.
"Just say it if it hurts." Gu Danyan glared at him and patted the stool beside him, "After I finish my pulse diagnosis today, I will take you to have a good rest."
The boy sat timidly.
Only after receiving quite a bit of information did he arrive at the school before dinner. Two to three hundred children were currently sitting on the steps or chairs, eating, and Gu Daiyan was writing down the medicinal formula. Qing, on the other hand, was running around, asking his older brothers and sisters their names one by one.
"Go and buy some oily food." At night, he didn't even have a tael of meat on him.
Cheng Shan chuckled and sent someone to do it.
Duan Chengxuan walked over to her side, found an empty seat, and sat down. He asked her, "I've processed all the documents for a day, have you used all of your breakfast and lunch?"
"You look more and more like a ghost now." Gu Baiyan caught a glimpse of him from the corner of his eyes and said, "I've already eaten."
"The siege was successful over there. After all, the pressure was put on both sides and it was already announced that as long as the slaves surrendered, they would not kill any of them. After just two days of fighting, thousands of slaves had already escaped."
After Duan Chengxuan finished speaking, Gu Daiyan's actions also stopped, and the children in the courtyard all looked over.
"That's good." Gu Danyan thought about the slave business and looked at him again: "When you wanted to kill the twenty thousand, did Su Yu Wan also listen in on the news?"
