It's another rainy January.
Dark clouds continued to gather outside the window.
On that rainy night, the imperial teacher prayed for all the officers and soldiers. The thieves took advantage of the opportunity to sneak in, Princess Changle was injured, and the third princess Gu Miao was disfigured.
The thief was stabbed in the chest by the officers and soldiers who arrived and died on the spot.
…
One night and then dawn.
Gu Qingsheng sat on the couch, and Zhang Wei smelled a bit of dirt in the weather after it rained.
Bai Lu came in and put a coat on Gu Qingsheng
"Princess, it's getting cold. You might need to wear a coat in a couple of days."
"The weather has turned a bit cooler these past two days."
She had just woken up and hadn't seen him for a few days. She fainted that day and spent the rest of her life in a daze.
During this period, someone from Huaixiang Pavilion wrote to me, but perhaps because I felt guilty or ashamed, I never opened the envelope.
The fragrance had dissipated after a few days. She looked at the envelope lying flat on the table, coughed, and turned her head away.
"Has the new fabric been cut?"
"No……"
Bai Lu was a little hesitant
"The Third Princess has been saying that you scratched her face, and there's even evidence from the secret guards. That's why the palace hasn't sent any fabric this month..."
The secret guard who witnessed everything at the time was not killed. After telling the queen about these things, she was furious. Fortunately, this was an unintentional act pretended by Gu Qingsheng at the time, which resulted in no excessive punishment.
It was also because Gu Qingsheng had once saved the Queen's life. This was a well-known fact in Jinchu, so the Queen could not punish Gu Qingsheng for a while, and she just looked at him with a little coldness.
Thinking of these things, Gu Qingsheng's wound on his waist began to ache slightly.
But the scar is not very big. It's funny to say that after being reborn for so long, I have scars of all sizes on my body.
Next to the pillow was a wooden plaque with a scratch on it, and the scratch was just behind the little bald head.
This was the wooden plaque that Xu Qingyi had given her at that time. Originally, Bai Lu was asked to make it into a pendant to wear on her body. This was the first day she arrived and she hadn't started wearing it yet. She just hurriedly put it around her waist and then she had this experience.
To be honest, Gu Qingsheng sometimes wondered what kind of magic Xu Qingyi had that made everything so coincidental.
If it weren't for the wooden plaque on her lower back, she would have been pierced by the sword by now.
There is no possibility of survival.
The wooden sign was on her waist, and Gu Miao was about to stab it, but was blocked by the wooden sign and did not go any deeper.
It can be said that Xu Qingyi saved his life.
sigh
"It doesn't matter if you don't have it. Let's use the old fabric."
"In recent days, I have been saying that I was recovering from an injury and asked everyone who wanted to visit me not to come."
"Keep me informed of any news about Huaixiang Pavilion. Su Huai..."
What I originally wanted to ask was what happened to Su Huai's body now.
But think about it, the queen was so angry, how could she leave Su Huai's body intact.
Su Huai, ah Su Huai.
All the emotions eventually faded into a sigh, and many of the flowers on the branches outside the window had already fallen.
Her eyes were empty, and suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps from outside the wall.
Turning her head slightly, Gu Qingsheng knew that the person she was waiting for had arrived.
"It looks like the prince has returned."
Bai Lu replied, having also heard the footsteps.
Gu Fengnan quickly stepped into Gu Qingsheng's yard, holding a suit of fine white velvet fabric in his hand, which even sparkled in the sun.
Gu Qingsheng didn't close the door either, and one could see the look in his eyes as he looked here at just one glance.
Putting down the cloth, Gu Fengnan walked over and sat down next to Gu Qingsheng.
"How are you? Are you feeling better?"
"You haven't looked very energetic these past few days. Are you feeling better now?"
"The wound isn't deep. I've asked the doctor, but for some reason, you seem very weak. I've taken some tonics these past few days. I hope you get better soon."
Ever since Su Huai's death, Gu Qingsheng's mental state has been much worse. Others don't know why, but they are naturally worried.
After taking a look at the cloth that Gu Fengnan brought, Gu Qingsheng forced a smile to reassure him.
"Maybe it's because the weather has been cold lately, that's why it's like this. I just told Bai Lu that we need to get some new fabric to make a coat."
"Brother, you found such a good material for me right away. It really coincides with my idea."
Gu Fengnan scratched his head and smiled
"I got this by chance, just be happy if you like it."
The two chatted for a while, looked at the sky outside, and then Gu Qingsheng slowly got to the point.
She coughed and looked very weak.
"Actually, what I'm thinking about is why my brother never gets sick, while I'm constantly sick, both major and minor."
Bai Lu immediately answered
"I think it might be because the prince has been practicing martial arts for many years, so his body is strong."
After hearing what Bai Lu said, Gu Fengnan really thought it was true. After thinking for a while, he said
"Maybe. Most of the people in our barracks don't get sick that often."
"In that case..."
Gu Qingsheng lowered his eyes, then raised them as if nothing had happened.
"Brother, please teach me martial arts."
"I feel like this..."
"Maybe... it can make me feel better."
…
"Get out! Get out! Get out!"
In the Queen's Palace, there was a scream, accompanied by the sound of things breaking.
The vase at the door was smashed into pieces, and the fragments even flew onto the face of a palace maid nearby, leaving a bloody mark!
The queen rubbed her brows and sighed as she sat aside.
"Miaomiao, have you had enough of making trouble? It's already morning."
Gu Miao had a veil on her face, her eyebrows were red, she was breathing heavily, and the scar on her face was aching slightly, reminding her that she was no longer her original appearance.
"What do you mean by enough?! What do you mean by enough!! My face is like this!"
“I’ve become like this!”
Angered by the Queen's words, Gu Miao's voice became even sharper and harsher. He suddenly rushed to the Queen and grabbed her veil.
“I’ve become like this!”
"What about you? What about you!"
"I told you everything! It was Gu Qingsheng who scratched my face! Did you punish her? Did you punish her? And now you're blaming me. Who is your daughter anyway?!"
The queen frowned at the words
"Miaomiao, how dare you talk like that? Although it was Changle who scratched your face, the secret guards also told me what happened at the time. She didn't mean to do it, and she was also injured and unconscious. If we insist on punishing her under such circumstances, how will the entire Jinchu see us?!"
"Prince Duan has always been kind to the Emperor. If it weren't for him, how could your father sit on the throne? Later, Changle saved my life in public, and there was nothing Queen Mother could do. I owe them so much..."
"Why should I be the one to repay the favors you owe me?!"
"She saved you! What does it have to do with me!"
