"Your Highness, the Jing King wishes to see you."
The soldiers ran up to report, and their eyes unconsciously fell on the medicinal plants on the table.
It was only a few days after the Autumn Hunt, and the envoys had already filled up the inn. Gu Danyan did not leave his house, and was only wearing a simple but elegant green robe with peach wood hairpins. The strong medicinal smell made her feel even colder.
"I have nothing to do with him. It seems inappropriate to meet him now."
Gu Liuyan said softly as he crushed the herbs in his hands. Several medical books were spread open by his side.
The soldiers had no choice but to go down and report. After a while, they trotted over, "Jiang Yan's envoys and civilians fought just now. Mister Xu's forces were insufficient."
"Right away." Gu Ming put down the herb in his hand, dismissed the soldier, cleaned up the ingredients, and then left in a hurry.
When they arrived downstairs, they did meet up with Duan Chenxuan, but she only gave a cursory glance before putting on her veil and rushing over to the medicine hall.
When she arrived at the infirmary, Feng Miao and Mo Yan were taking care of the patient, while a few waiters were busy stopping the bleeding.
On the other hand, Jiang Yan's men roared at Gu Mingyan, "Hurry and treat my lord!" Who cares what these lowly commoners do? "
Gu Danyan, on the other hand, coldly glanced at the man who was called an adult, bent down and patted his wound, looking at his ferocious face as he growled. He said coldly: "The wounds on your body are sword wounds, but the wounds on these civilians are wild beasts.
"You bitch!" That Master Ai shouted in anger.
Gu Danyan only took one step back and pulled up his sleeves lazily. With his back facing Jiang Yan, he said coldly: "Men, throw all these Jiang Yan men onto the street and kill all the biting animals."
"How dare you! "What the hell are you? I'm Jiang Yan's prince!" The few Jiang Yan people beside him immediately turned pale.
Gu Liuyan ignored him and bent down to look at the poor child. She comforted him softly: "If it hurts, then just scream. I'll be lighter."
However, the seven to eight year old child was wailing loudly. Gu Daiyan was smiling, but his hands did not stop. He only wrapped them up carefully and took out some candied fruits from his bosom for his son to see the next patient.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yan Ren had already been thrown into the streets.
The third prince had personally brought some men and arrived. When he heard that it was Gu Tinyan's order, he was shocked and smiled, "Wild beasts hurt people. I don't think the envoys from Jiang Yan will do that."
"What does Your Highness mean by this!?" "My lord was injured by these lowly commoners …"
"When I hear the word lowly, it gives me a headache. Why haven't you killed those arrogant animals yet?" Gu Danyan's voice came from the other side of the room.
The soldiers hurriedly rushed out while Gu Tinyan shooed Little Mo Yan inside to help.
A few of them brought Lord Ai's attendants away. The third prince didn't say a word and only raised his eyes to instruct his subordinates to save Jiang Yan. He then said, "Princess Erdan saw that your servant was infected and helped you deal with it earlier. Please forgive her."
Nobody dared to say anything else.
When Duan Chengxuan arrived, he saw this scene, and he and the Third Prince, who was on horseback, glanced at each other before sneering, "Send the person to the Hall of Healing for treatment, then use this duke's name to slaughter those wild beasts. Put the meat and bones in a pot and make a dish to send to the envoys' rooms in the inn to savor the taste."
After resolving the matter at hand, Duan Chengxuan even saw the provocation in Duan Chenrui's eyes.
It seemed like the Third Prince had not given up on Gu Pingyan.
The smell of blood and medicine filled his nostrils as he stepped into the infirmary. Gu Danyan's clothes were always stained with blood, and his hands and feet quickly sewed up the wounds on other people's bodies, and he quietly instructed the people beside him to bring some herbs and tools.
Duan Chengxuan waited by the door, as the bystanders would always look over curiously.
When did this King Jing have such patience?
However, when they saw that there were still some soldiers wearing the military uniform of Er Dan by the door, they immediately understood and began to discuss amongst themselves.
There were a dozen or so people who had been injured by wild beasts. Even with the help of a doctor from the Hall of Healing, they were still busy until the night. The streets were quiet, while Gu Daiyan was slumped on a chair.
A cup of hot tea was brought to his mouth.
"I'll take you back to the inn." Duan Chengxuan's voice was light and gentle, and a hand lightly pressed onto her wrist. He didn't expect her to raise his hand to take the cup.
Gu Mingyan followed Duan Chengxuan's actions and drank some hot tea, then she noticed Duan Chengxuan extending his hand towards him.
All the impatience and uneasiness in his heart was instantly pacified.
"Qing Shui should be asleep by now."
"I won't let Su Yu Wan get close to him." Duan Cheng Xuan said.
Gu Pingyan was stunned for a moment, but he still put his hand on it: "I'm not answering the question."
"Isn't that what you're worried about?" Duan Cheng Xuan pulled her up and asked in response.
Gu Danyan didn't say anything this time and allowed Duan Chengxuan to bring him to Prince Jing's estate.
Even though she was not in the Sky Flame, Qing Qing seemed to be well taken care of. Her dreams were sweet, and Gu Liuyan only sat on the bed for a while before she started to feel restless, wanting to leave.
"It's too late." Duan Chengxuan pulled her back before she left. "From that night onwards, you've been carrying a heavy load on your mind."
"I have no less things to consider than you, so I am naturally worried. If you are worried, I will stay. " Gu Danyan sighed softly and rubbed his forehead with a headache.
She couldn't let Qing Ze lose his mother at such a young age, but she couldn't guarantee that she would survive.
Gaining back his impatience and impatience, Gu Pingyan could only remain calm and think about how to resolve everything within two years. Whether it was the withdrawal of the Yun Family descendents, the Wind Listening Pavilion, or the solid position of Duan Chengxuan and Zong Ping, she still had to fulfill her agreement with the Bodhisattva.
There was simply not enough time, and she was no longer allowed to go all out like before.
Her thoughts wandered as she followed Duan Chengxuan back to his bedroom. The moment she stepped into the room, a woman's cry of surprise was heard from the bed.
The naked Su Yuwen hastily covered a large area of snow-white with a blanket. She looked at Gu Danyan with a face full of fear.
"Sorry for disturbing you." Gu Liuyan felt that this scene was too eye-catching.
He shook off Duan Cheng Xuan's hand and left.
A few days ago, she shouldn't have truly believed Duan Cheng Xuan and seen the possibility that she had thought of tell him!
Compared to Su Yu Wan, she was nothing.
Before Duan Cheng Xuan stopped her, she left first.
When they returned to the inn, the soldier on duty saw that her face was pale and that she had been busy all day without a break to eat. He quickly said, "Your Highness, I'll go prepare some food for you."
"Serve some hot soup noodles. They need to be light. You don't need to bring any more pastries in the future." Gu Daiyan ordered as he held onto his aching forehead.
With the large amount of medicinal herbs in her stomach, she would probably have to bid farewell to many things in the future.
