Chapter 156 Is she okay?
Chapter 156 Is she okay?
Gu Yunling shook her head. "Your mother can't do anything about it. If she could treat him, she would have helped him detoxify long ago."
Jiang Xiyu was stunned. Her mother should have known that her blood could cure Gulin's cold poison, but why didn't she use her blood to detoxify Gulin?
Maybe she really wasn't born at that time?
After she was born, her mother must have been reluctant to use her blood.
Gu Yunling originally wanted to say a few more good words for Gulin in front of Jiang Xiyu, but when she thought that Gulin was infected with a cold poison and might not live long, she lost interest.
Not to mention that Jiang Xiyu is a married woman now, even if Jiang Xiyu is not married yet, it is unknown how long Gulin can live due to her health condition. In addition, when Nanny Yu came back some time ago, she mentioned to her that Xu Rui seemed to be very good to Jiang Xiyu, so even if she knew now that Gulin liked Jiang Xiyu, she could not have tried to match them up at that time.
Gu Yunling changed the subject and said, "Xiao Xi, every one of the medicinal foods you developed is delicious and has so many medicinal uses. I really didn't misjudge you back then. Without you, my medicinal food business would definitely not be successful. Now, with your prescriptions, my medicinal food business will definitely flourish."
When it comes to medicinal food, Gu Yunling's eyes shine brightly, as if there is countless silver in front of him.
Jiang Xiyu was amused by her expression and joked, "In that case, I'll go back and develop a few more so that you can earn more."
Gu Yunling smiled and said, "Don't worry, my restaurant is being renovated. It will take at least a month. You have plenty of time to slowly develop it."
Jiang Xiyu researched very quickly. She had researched five or six dishes in just two or three days, and each one was a top-quality medicinal food with good color, fragrance, taste and medicine. More than a month was enough for her to research ten medicinal foods, which was more than enough.
Jiang Xiyu nodded silently.
She has a very busy next few days.
She must research enough medicinal food to open the restaurant and find out the secrets behind the account books during the more than one month that Xu Rui returns to Beijing.
Perhaps if she could find out the secrets of those account books, she could get her one million taels of silver back.
The Princess's Mansion is very close to the Lin Guogong Mansion, so Gu Yunling did not let Jiang Xiyu take the carriage back to the Yonglin Marquis Mansion, but directly sent her to the door of the Princess's Mansion.
Jiang Xiyu got off the carriage and bowed to Gu Yunling in the carriage to express her gratitude, "Thank you, Sister Yun."
Gu Yunling lifted the car curtain and smiled at her, "Don't worry. If you encounter any problems that you can't solve, come to me first and I will definitely help you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiyu bowed to Gu Yunling again in gratitude.
"Okay, I'm leaving. You should go back too." Gu Yunling waved to Jiang Xiyu and sat back in the carriage.
Jiang Xiyu did not return to the Princess's Mansion immediately, but watched Gu Yunling's carriage go away before returning to the Princess's Mansion.
On this side, Jiang Xiyu had just returned to Jingyu Garden, and the leader of the Jinwei also went to see Deji.
"Just now our people encountered the King of Qin's secret guards in the palace."
Deji was startled when he heard this, "What's going on?"
The leader of the Golden Guards explained simply, "Today in the palace, the Emperor, the King of Qin, and those attending the banquet went to the peach forest to play a game. Our subordinates wanted to follow the Madam into the peach forest, but were stopped by the King of Qin's secret guards."
"A fight broke out? No one discovered it, right?" Deji was a little worried. He couldn't let anyone know about the existence of Jin Wei.
The leader of the Golden Guards shook his head. "No. They only tried to stop us from entering the peach forest, but didn't really engage us. After we engaged them, my men immediately retreated."
At that time, he was also worried about alerting other people, so after being stopped by the secret guards, he led his men to retreat.
After all, that is the imperial palace. If any unusual movement occurs, they might be exposed, and then Xu Rui might be implicated.
Hearing this, Deji finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was no big commotion, he was relieved. "Then the Madam is back. Is she okay?"
"No, Madam is back and is now in Jingyu Garden."
After they exited the peach forest, they did not leave, but continued to guard outside the peach forest.
After seeing Jiang Xiyu come out, they escorted Jiang Xiyu all the way back.
When Xu Rui left, he repeatedly reminded him to take good care of Jiang Xiyu, and he didn't forget.
Hearing that Jiang Xiyu had returned safely, Deji no longer had anything to worry about. "That's all right, I'm glad you're okay. The most important thing is to go back and take good care of my wife."
"Yes." The leader of the Golden Guard responded and disappeared again.
As soon as Jin Wei left, Deji sent another letter to Xu Rui.
Xu Rui had instructed that no matter whether there was anything going on or not, he should send him at least one letter every day to report the information about Jiang Xiyu and the mansion.
He knew that Xu Rui was concerned about Jiang Xiyu, otherwise, when he was fighting in the north, he would not even ask about Jiang Xiyu's affairs for so many years, let alone care about her information like this.
So, now that I know what Xu Rui is thinking, I have to report everything to Xu Rui, no matter big or small.
The Qin Palace next door.
Gulin was lying in a rocking chair, wrapped in a cotton jacket, staring deeply at the red rope in his hand.
When Wuyi came in, he saw Gulin's lazy posture and said, "Your Majesty, the lady next door has returned home safely."
He didn't dare to say that Jiang Xiyu was the wife of the Yonglin Marquis, otherwise, if Gulin became jealous, he would be the one who got hurt.
Gulin took the red string in his palm, his eyes flickering slightly, "The one in the palace, didn't find any clues?"
Wuyi shook his head and said, "No, Madam left the Peach Forest with the main force, and left the palace with Princess Yunling. The Imperial Concubine will definitely not be able to find the Madam."
Gulin's brows relaxed slightly, "Send someone to continue guarding her."
"Yes." Wuyi responded, staring at Gulin's throat again, and took out a box of plasters. "Your Highness, I asked the imperial physician to prescribe a box of plasters. Would you like to apply it?"
Gulin took a look at the ointment and then glanced at Wuyi. Wuyi shuddered for a moment and retreated with an awkward smile.
Gulin rocked in the rocking chair and closed his eyes.
Jiang Xiyu's every smile and frown appeared in his mind, but in an instant it turned into Jiang Xiyu's fear of him. He could still clearly feel Jiang Xiyu trembling in his arms.
Thinking that she was afraid of him, Gulin turned over in annoyance.
Why is she afraid of him?
Is he too reckless?
But he didn't do anything to her?
He had never had any contact with a woman and had no idea how to get along with her. He wanted to get close to her purely out of his heart.
Gulin suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the high wall opposite.
They had just parted, but he wanted to see her again. Even though there was only a wall between them, it felt like there were thousands of mountains and rivers between them.
Gulin closed his eyes again in melancholy.
Next door, Jingyuyuan.
Jiang Xiyu sat in the bathtub, thinking about Gulin.
