Su Yu Wan tried to escape on the way, but she was only brought back to be tied to the carriage.
On the last night in the wilderness, Duan Chengxuan noticed that Gu Danyan was not nearby. After carefully searching for him, he heard the soldier standing guard say, "His Highness' water bag was broken and his clothes were missing, so he went over to change."
Duan Cheng Xuan nodded in understanding.
The snow-white undergarment had already been completely soaked, and he slightly untied his shirt. That crooked and twisted cloud character now had countless thorns extending out from it, making it look extremely terrifying. Even the wound on his chest had started to turn black.
She frowned as she swallowed all of the herbs in the wooden box by the shore. Breathing heavily as she sat on the shore, the pain in her chest and the pain in her head was unbearable to her.
She should have discovered that the poison did not invade her heart, but her head.
Without a precise instrument, it was only now that she discovered that this poison was extremely tricky. Although she didn't know where Mu Qing had obtained this type of death-faking medicine, it had thoroughly damaged her foundation and even her life.
Just as she was considering whether or not Jade Dragon Snow could prolong her life, the sound of heavy footsteps came from behind her. "Did you exchange?"
"No, this pool is clean. I'm just going to take a shower." Gu Liuyan said this and quickly took off the wet undergarment. With his back facing the forest, he quickly put on the clean clothes and walked out with the wet clothes in one hand. With his beautiful eyes, he said: "I just walked for a short while and you're already awake?"
"I'm just curious about how you're going to torture Su Yuwan." Duan Cheng Xuan casually received the wet clothes.
"Are you worried?" Gu Danyan looked at the resentment on Duan Chengxuan's face and thought of the wound on his heart. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes as he continued, "Have you ever thought that the matter of killing that day was perhaps Mu Qing's doing, not Su Yu Wan's?"
"Are you pleading for her?" Duan Chengxuan frowned.
"That's not it. It's just that Mu Qing's motives are much greater. Perhaps she is still your junior apprentice sister, yet you treat her like this. Aren't you afraid that she will hate you because of your love?" Gu Liuyan said softly and continued to walk forward.
Duan Chengxuan, who was beside her, stopped and asked, "What happened to you?"
With a slight tremble of her fingers, Gu Mingyan turned to look at him, "I'm just narrating the truth."
"You should remember how Su Yu Wan slandered you with my own hands back then." Duan Cheng Xuan walked forward a step.
"I'm just trying to help you see the truth." Gu Liuyan became impatient: "If she didn't kill your master and mistress, would you have killed her?"
There was a long silence.
Gu Danyan just smiled and walked over to the place where they slept without looking back. He found a random tree to sit on and continued carving.
She should have known long ago that the reason Duan Chengxuan hated Su Yu Wan to the extreme was because he was his master's wife.
Duan Chengxuan only returned after a long time, but he didn't come to her side and instead went to look for Su Yu Wan.
Some things can't be taken care of once they start.
That night, Su Yu Wan's crying and apologizing voice came from the forest. The cold-faced Duke Jing bent down and scolded her for her wilful behavior, but he never really took action, and he didn't strip her of her title as Crown Prince Jing's wife.
Gu Liuyan did not sleep the entire night. In the morning, she only stuffed the things she had carved into her sleeve, put on her veil, and calmly gave the order: "Let's go. If not, I will not see King Jing."
Several of the Er Dan soldiers responded in unison.
Duan Chengxuan wanted to ride with her, but he was stopped by the soldiers.
Gu Daiyan spoke softly from the carriage: "Since you can't kill her, then there's no need to pretend to be warm."
"The friendship between me and her has been broken, and it will not stop you from taking revenge." Duan Chengxuan stood at the side of the wagon with a gloomy gaze, and the surrounding people subconsciously took a step back. However, he continued, "I still need to wait for Mu Qing's answer regarding what happened that year."
Gu Danyan ignored him and ordered his men to leave.
Along the way to the Sky Flame, Su Yu Wan didn't expect that there would still be a day when she would make a comeback. She had been friends with Duan Cheng Xuan for more than ten years, and as long as she didn't die, Duan Cheng Xuan really wouldn't push her to the bottom.
As for Gu Danyan, this man who had once deceived Big Brother Xuan, how much trust could she gain?
Gu Danyan was aware of this. If Su Yuwan wasn't the guilty one, she would still be his disciple and wouldn't be killed so easily. But at the same time, she was also the one who added fuel to the fire.
Before entering the city, she had carefully examined the scars on her chest, and she knew that the time was running out for her to take a pulse.
Initially, she had carefully tended to her wounds, but after treating them with three portions of poison, she would not be able to care about anything else. However, after enduring so much, she had suddenly reached the point where there was no medicine to cure her.
"Stop." Gu Mingyan said as she straightened her clothes.
The luxurious carriage stopped in the middle of the street. Gu Daiyan looked at the nearby Hall of Relief and walked in. She went straight to the backyard and found He Jin. She passed her wrist over and said, "Senior, please help me take a look first."
It should be a serious matter to get straight to the point before we reminisce about the past.
"If that's the case, then I'm afraid that your Yun Family's bell's poison has clashed with the fake death poison of that day. Although it had originally entered your heart, as long as you consume medicinal ingredients for a long period of time, there shouldn't be any major problems, but this fake death poison is strange. I remember that there's something about it in the ancient records."
He Jin frowned and started flipping through the books in the library at the back.
At this moment, Duan Chengxuan walked in despite the soldiers blocking him. When he saw Gu Danyan's anxious expression, he was curious and said, "Yan'Er …"
"Go find your Su Yuwan. Don't bother me."
Gu Danyan opened his mouth subconsciously, his heart was beating faster and faster.
If this fake death medicine was really from an ancient book, then there might be an antidote. However, she suspected that she had taken too many pills. If there was any conflict, wouldn't she have lost her life?
She didn't want to die at all.
Duan Chengxuan's face darkened as well. "I no longer have any feelings for Su Yuwan. I'll just wait for the truth that year and hand her over to you."
"She will die with me sooner or later. What difference does it make whether you give her to her or not?" Gu Mingyan was worried about her life, so she didn't want to hear Su Yu Wan's name.
Duan Chengxuan had a nagging feeling that Gu Pingyan was extremely anxious. He wanted to say a few more words, but he saw He Jin hurrying over. He frowned when he saw him and lightly coughed a few times: "This …"
I'll have to trouble you, Senior. In the future, I'll be able to prepare my own medicinal formula and deliver it to the Hall of Appreciation.
Gu Daiyan smiled as he received the few medical books in He Jin's hands, and impatiently brushed past Duan Chengxuan.
Duan Chengxuan followed him out, but He Jin frowned.
It was a matter of life and death, but Gu Mingyan didn't seem to want others to know.
