"That's why I called you."
Gu Liuyan leaned against the bed and took her soup from Zhang Liangshan's hands.
The snowstorm outside the window had already started to melt away, and the border gate had also started to form a line of defense. It was rare for outsiders to be involved, so presumably, the same was true for Erdan, while Jiang Yan and the new country were rarely quiet. Only Duan Chengxuan was still angry at the time that there were still some people guarding Ai Yan outside of the city.
Zhang Liangshan checked her pulse and looked at the ghost, "The remaining Red Jade Pool can only be used for two more months. After that, I will have to find some other items that can be used to calm the fetus and cure the poison."
"I just asked Auntie Du to find out about the Crimson Jade Sze." Phantom nodded his head in understanding. He also sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Gu Daiyan: "Since I've found the solution, I think it's better for me to tell this news to the prince, okay?"
"Not good." Gu Danyan's face darkened: "Once he appears, I will definitely run away."
Zhang Liangshan didn't know much about these things, but Phantom Demon opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end. He just patted her head and said, "Rest for a while. Dong Ri will need some time."
"I know." Gu Danyan nodded and stuffed the empty bowl into the ghost's arms. He then sank into a deep sleep under the blanket.
To prevent outsiders from finding out Gu Liuyan's existence, they could only use the room where Zhang Liangshan lived to boil the medicine. A few soldiers who had come to ask for help were blocked outside the door by Ruo Li, so Zhang Liangshan said helplessly, "I'm still an army doctor, so I need to help them solve their problem first."
The ghost could only watch as Zhang Liangshan left. When he turned around, he saw the timid dog hiding under the eaves. It didn't even dare to enter the house. It only walked forward and asked, "Auntie Du didn't let you follow?"
"The aunt said it would be more useful for me to stay." Ergou cringed.
With the corners of his mouth raised, he dragged Gu Liuyan into the room and quickly wrote down Gu Liuyan's situation for Ergou. He also stuffed the handkerchief that Gu Liuyan usually used into Ergou's hands: "When you go to Sky Flame City, you must definitely hand this thing over to Prince Jing, and do not allow anyone to borrow it."
"This... What if I am stopped? " As soon as Ergou heard the two words, King Jing, his legs went limp.
"How did you get to Blackwater Town? Why are you so timid?" Ghost's face darkened and kicked his leg. The latter almost kneeled down and kowtowed to him and said: "I … I just got in there by mistake... "Who knew that aunty would capture me and make me a laborer? Then …"
"Fine." Sighing heavily, Spiritdove wrote another letter, explaining his purpose of coming here. After that, he handed the letter to Jing Wang, "Duke Jing or a person called Cheng Shan, take out your courage. Once these two letters are taken by someone else, you can just wait until you lose your head."
Ergou actually knelt down and kowtowed to him.
He turned a deaf ear to Li Yao's cries, and walked out of the courtyard in a leisurely manner, borrowing the identity of the Fourth Prince's trusted aide to inquire about the coming of the Third Prince and the Ninth Prince. Coincidentally, he found out that the two princes' courtyard was prepared to be in the town, which made Li Yao feel even more strange.
There was no one to watch over these two princes, so anything could happen if they lived in the city. Even if someone died, they could just say that it was an assassination from a foreign spy.
Why is that?
After searching for a while, he found nothing. All he did was stay by Gu Liuyan and Zhang Liangshan's side and help them.
It was still warm and cold when Gu Pingyan finally managed to recover. With Zhang Liangshan's status as his junior sister, he had visited all the medicine halls in the nearby towns and came back with plenty of herbs and food every day without the slightest bit of remorse from a pregnant woman.
In the eyes of Zhang Liang Shan and Gui Gui, Wu Qing became even more serious.
"Can you at least be a little more conscious? Stop running around!" Zhang Liangshan pulled Gu Pingyan back onto the soft couch in annoyance. He looked at the innocent eyes and said angrily, "Although pregnant women really need to go out for a walk, it's not like we're going to go out alone for an entire day. Do you know how many medicinal herbs we have at night?"
"I also brought quite a bit of silver." Gu Danyan carefully handed over the money bag.
"I know that the doctor on that street is a quack doctor, and I've already sent the soldiers to investigate. You don't need to compete with him in medical skills in public. If it wasn't for the guards blocking the way, that person would have already pounced over."
Gu Liuyan glanced at the dust covered corner of her skirt. She leaned on the table and supported her face with her hands: "I was suddenly very angry, and then I did it."
"I've had enough of pregnant women!" Zhang Liangshan growled angrily and walked out of the room.
The two people in the room looked at each other, one of them was still laughing innocently, but the ghost felt that when she was pregnant, it was even more of a headache than when she was a child on the road. He walked up to her and tied her purse to her waist: "I heard that tomorrow and the next day, the Ninth Prince and the Third Prince will arrive at the border.
"I am only Zhang Liangshan's junior apprentice sister. My name is Zhang Liangyan."
Taking a deep breath, Gui Gui decides not to bother with a pregnant woman with unstable emotions.
Watching ghost seriously put the money pouch on his neck, Gu Daiyan's fingertip slid across the back of ghost's neck without leaving a trace. He was so shocked that he retracted his hand and looked up at ghost doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
"I'd like to get a cup of tea." Gu Daiyan took a glass of wine and handed it over.
On the other hand, Phantom Demon tied up his money bag and stood up. He heard Gu Daiyan say: "You didn't tell anyone else about me, right?"
His footsteps paused, and ghost rarely saw her turn serious, "Why do you ask this?"
"I've said it before, intelligence is everything. I've heard about Auntie Du from the medicine halls, but I've never heard of Ergou appearing." Gu Mingyan took a sip of the warm water that had only been supplemented with two cups of tea before she smiled and said, "But I don't know if you told mother or Duan Chengxuan."
"I told the prince." Phantom people rarely lied to Gu Danyan, he even forgot that Gu Danyan was never someone who could do insignificant things.
Gu Danyan's fingertips shrank. Things had not developed as he had imagined.
"Compared to mother, you think that the man that hurt me before can give me a sense of security?" Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows in disbelief, "I really don't want to see him, even if I know he won't hurt me."
"But he's more rational than you think." "When His Highness treats someone sincerely, he will give her freedom and protect her well in the dark. I believe that His Highness will not appear in front of you, but he is the father of the child and has the responsibility to protect you and your child."
"Maybe you're right." Gu Liuyan's expression was still conflicted, but he was not angry.
