C600

The Rites of Heavenly Worship was nearing its end.

The prey was cut open and placed on the dais, while the rest of the prey turned into game in a bowl.

Gu Daiyan was more interested in the details of the Rites of Heavenly Worship than Qing Yi, so he could only pull up his long and wide sleeves and sit in front of a table and chairs to savor these prey.

If she really wanted a child, she needed more nutrition.

Yue Qing, who was standing beside her, pushed a bowl of plain and simple broth to her side. "Don't eat too much meat."

"I thought that you were only helping me transport the medicinal herbs every day, but I didn't know that you were aware of my daily meals." Gu Danyan took the bowl of clear soup and tasted it and felt much more comfortable.

Yue Qing didn't like the arrogant look on Gu Danyan's face. She put down the things in her hands and left.

He merely personally went to the forest to take a look at the matters regarding the poisonous bugs and accompanied Qing Yi as he walked around everywhere. He finally found some time to talk with Gu Mingyan, but the latter was seriously eating and swallowing at a slow pace, seeming to maintain the rhythm of chewing a dozen times every time he placed a mouthful of meat in his mouth.

No one spoke for a while. Only when Gu Liuyan finally ate her fill did Duan Chengxuan speak in a light voice. "You're willing to give birth to a younger brother and sister for Qingze?"

"Right." Gu Liuyan took out a handkerchief and wiped the corner of his mouth. He turned his head to look at Duan Chengxuan and said, "It's just that I have to be engaged to Third Prince right now. If I were to be married to you again …"

"If it's for Qing Ze, you don't have to harm your body. I don't mind if you have more adopted daughters or adopted sons." Duan Chengxuan's words exceeded Gu Panyan's expectations, and the latter looked at him strangely. "You don't want me to have a child with you?"

"No, that's not the case. I just know that you're a bit repulsed by this matter." Duan Chengxuan was slightly taken aback as well.

Gu Danyan raised his eyebrows and grabbed the front of his shirt: "Are you not allowed?"

"I think you owe me a lesson." Duan Chengxuan angrily grabbed her chin as well, as he only wanted to wait for the rage on Gu Liuyan's face to transform into a low laugh, then he raised his hand to pat Gu Liuyan's chest. Along with his low voice, he said, "Stop treating me as a porcelain doll, when Qingze is asleep, don't forget that I'm still going to go see your elder brother."

Duan Cheng Xuan was helpless. She could only nod and patiently wait.

He didn't expect Qing Ze's simple sentence to be able to untie the knot in Gu Danyan's heart.

Although he was happy, he was still worried that Gu Pingyan was serious about the matter. However, seeing that Gu Mingyan did not seem like she was joking, he even became serious and stopped asking.

After he had caused enough trouble for Qing Ze, Gu Danyan personally carried him to the bed and then secretly left with Duan Chengxuan.

Duan Cong was still resting in the villa. Because of the matter of the empress establishing the crown prince, she was at loggerheads with Duan Cong. Therefore, it was very easy for Duan Cheng Xuan to bring Gu Qing Yan and the medicine chest in.

He climbed over the wall and landed firmly on the ground.

Gu Danyan lifted the small medicine box on his waist and followed Duan Chengxuan into the bedroom.

Duan Cong had been waiting for a long time. Gu Qing Yan walked up to him without saying a word and checked his pulse, "Your majesty, the poison has already been activated. If you don't want the empress to know that you've already detoxified the poison, all you need to do is to turn this pill into water in the future to ensure that the poison doesn't enter your body."

It was just a small trick of the poison, Gu Daiyan naturally had the antidote, so he quickly threw out a few jade bottles and continued: "This poison is small, I'm afraid the empress still has other tricks up her sleeve, it's best to be on guard."

"Maybe a direct stab." Duan Chengxuan added in a deep voice, then casually helped Gu Danyan organize the four treasures in the study, waiting for her to write down the prescription.

"I didn't expect that the reason I left Beacon in the prince's mansion and allowed him to go to the imperial palace was to entice the imperial physician to poison me." At this moment, Duan Cong sat dispiritedly on her chair. Her usual heroic and scheming attitude had disappeared, leaving behind only a deep sense of disappointment.

Duan Chengxuan sat by his side with a cold expression. "He's a merciful woman."

"Because of love." Duan Cong also looked at his younger brother, whose personality had changed drastically. Her gaze then fell on Gu Tinyan, who was seriously writing down the prescription and paying attention to it. She lowered her voice and said, "This Emperor … "Let her go with Rui'er …"

"No need to say anymore. I believe in her, and I also believe that you, royal brother, will not harm me." Duan Cheng Xuan was resentful in her heart, but when she thought about how she might be criticised by Gu Xuan if she got angry, she only took a deep breath for a moment before saying, "How do you plan on treating this Duan?"

"Since he and the empress want to kill me, let's do it." Duan Cong let out a few light coughs.

Duan Chengxuan immediately stopped talking, and Gu Danyan also raised his hand to close the window gap. He looked strangely at Duan Chengxuan, then heard Empress Xu's voice from outside, "Your majesty, chenqie has personally made the soup for you."

It was mixed with the sound of guards obstructing them.

Duan Cong held onto the handrail tightly. She believed that she had treated this fallen queen quite well, and that she had no intentions of wasting her life. But now that the people beside him wanted to kill him, how could he not be disgusted by them?

At this moment, Duan Chengxuan shot a glance at Gu Liuyan, who cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "The Emperor has already rested. I hope the Empress can rest soon."

As he spoke, he slightly opened the window, revealing half of a woman's clothes.

Lady Xu's expression immediately changed. Her body stiffened as she left. She did not forget to ask the people beside her where the Emperor had found a beauty to embrace.

After he was done, Gu Daiyan closed the window and looked at the prescription that he had written. He was curious: "Which one are you missing …"

The corners of Duan Cheng Xuan's mouth abruptly curled up.

Duan Cong saw all of this from the bottom of her heart and felt slightly gratified.

Gu Danyan didn't care about the two brothers' meticulous plans, but in his heart, he had already decided to stop the medicine. If he were to sleep with Duan Cheng Xuan these days, he would have no need to wake up and take the Soup Dans.

When night arrived, she naturally entered the bedroom with Duan Chengxuan.

Bai Yu's hands lightly rested on his neck. "It's very ugly. I don't want anyone to see it."

"Alright." Duan Chengxuan didn't think too much about it, and he only enjoyed the warmth of Gu Mingyan's company to his heart's content.

Her black hair annoyed people's eyes, so they could only clear the mess in front of their eyes. The man beside her had already left to take care of some matters, while she stood up and changed her clothes as usual. When she pushed open the door, she saw someone who should not have appeared here.

"Why is His Highness here?" Duan Feng looked at her in shock.

Gu Danyan was speechless for a moment. He lifted his hand to adjust his long hair, then looked at the servant girl beside him: "I am curious about the Ninth Prince's purpose in coming here."

Needless to say, her voice was lazy, as if she was satisfied.

Even though Duan Feng had heard rumors, seeing her coming out of the Imperial Uncle's room with her own two eyes was different. Only after a while did she react. With a sneer on her face, she said, "Just like your mother, you have made my imperial family so filthy."

"Dirty?" The man's voice came from behind Duan Feng.

Gu Danyan lazily leaned against the door frame and yawned. He looked over at Duan Feng and said, "Who asked you not to wake me up earlier?"

"Just to make you sleep more." Duan Chengxuan walked all the way to the front of Duan Feng and looked at him coldly. "No one can talk to her, and don't tell me that the next time she's frightened, it's because of you."

The overwhelming pressure of killing intent caused Duan Ming to be out of breath. He had never been to a battlefield before, and now her legs were weak. The coldness in her eyes grew even deeper.

If Royal Uncle was not eliminated, it would be a huge problem.
