Chapter 17 Duke Yong kissed me?
Akabane blinked twice in a daze, then came back to his senses in an instant. He quickly waved his hand and shouted in a low voice: "Turn around!"
Everyone suddenly woke up, turned around in unison, and held their breath, not daring to breathe.
Mu Junyan ignored them, his mind free of distractions, he just held the person in his arms, carefully and gently breathing into her.
As the two breaths merged, the girl finally let out a deep breath, and then began to gasp for breath.
Mu Junyan's clenched heart suddenly relaxed, and he subconsciously hugged her in his arms, gently stroked her back, and whispered: "It's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Gu Huan had a splitting headache and a loud buzzing sound.
She felt the air rushing into her throat, instantly bringing her back to life.
I leaned weakly in the warm embrace, gasping for breath, opened my eyes blankly, and found that there was no water around.
Her tear-filled eyes stared blankly at the face in front of her. She couldn't see his face clearly, but she felt that he was like a god descending from heaven.
...Is it a god?
Gu Huan's heart suddenly collapsed. She buried her face in the immortal's chest in grievance, clutched his clothes tightly, and burst into tears.
"I never hurt anyone, not even an ant. I was hungry for three days and three nights, and I only had half a steamed bun, which I gave to the beggar. I didn't do anything that was against the will of heaven and earth. I listened to my aunt and elder sister and let them abuse me, but why did they have to destroy me? Why?"
Half a steamed bun?
Mu Junyan's heart paused and his brows furrowed.
Listening to the girl's exhausted cry, her clothes were wet with her tears. Even though he had killed countless people and was used to seeing separations and deaths, he felt an inexplicable pain deep in his heart and could not help but hug the little girl tightly in his arms.
His heart was also made sour by her tears.
This is all Mu An’s fault!
Mu Junyan's dark eyes were as cold as ice.
"No."
Zhou Chunyu and Zhou Zhilan couldn't help but have tears in their eyes.
The crying of the person in his arms stopped abruptly.
Mu Junyan looked down and saw the little guy with his eyes closed, curled up into a small ball in his arms.
Passed out.
Without thinking too much, he picked the person up and carried him sideways, ran into the bedroom, gently placed him on the bed, and wrapped the quilt around his body.
Everyone's eyes widened in shock.
Women are never allowed to enter the master's bedroom.
The bed is not allowed to be touched casually.
Mu Junyan stared at the person on the bed. After a while, he didn't see the court doctor coming in. He turned around and shouted, "House doctor, hurry up."
The court doctor came back to his senses and ran over with the medicine box: "Oh oh oh oh, here it comes."
Zhou Zhilan pulled Dong Mo and turned to run away: "Hurry up and ask someone to boil some water. Ask the palace doctor to prescribe medicine for a bath. Miss Gu might catch a cold, so she should use the medicine bath to sweat."
"Okay." Dong Mo went away in a hurry.
After a while, Zhou Zhilan brought a new dress of her own.
The court doctor had already taken her pulse and given her a few injections, but she was still not conscious.
Zhou Zhilan brought a maid to help Gu Huan change clothes, and Mu Junyan led everyone out of the room.
"Miss Gu was troubled, her liver fire was blocked, and she fainted due to excessive excitement and nervousness."
Mu Junyan frowned.
In such a storm, she escaped dressed like this...
He turned his head and looked at Akabane.
Akabane was so scared that his neck shrank and he almost fell to his knees.
However, Miss Gu was dressed like that and was soaking wet. He dared to try to help her...
He also wants hands.
My Lord, can you please not look so scary?
"My lord." The court doctor hesitated.
"To save a life, I'm not afraid to say anything." Mu Junyan didn't care about Chiyu.
The court doctor shook his head, "It's not about saving lives. It's because when I bandaged Miss Gu's hand yesterday, I found something wrong with her fingernails. I just checked carefully and found that there were bruises inside her fingernails caused by needles for many years. There were new and old wounds crisscrossing each other. Her attack was as vicious as that of the maids in the inner prison of the palace."
The court physician had once served as the imperial physician and had seen this kind of torture against women.
Mu Junyan frowned. Who was so cruel to her?
Mu An has evil intentions towards Gu Huan, and Gu Wanru should not be happy about it.
But they are sisters after all!
"How is the investigation going?" Mu Junyan looked at Chiyu.
Akabane said hurriedly: "We are still investigating."
Zhou Chunyu was a little confused because he had not yet done the gift sending to the Gu family as ordered by his master.
Now that the daughter-in-law has caused such a thing at her brother-in-law's house, it will be very troublesome if not handled properly.
Mu Junyan thought for a moment and said to the palace doctor, "I heard that you accepted a female disciple as your last disciple? Would you like to come and serve me? You can ask for the salary."
The court doctor's eyes lit up: "I'll ask her when I get back. She comes from a poor family, so she should be willing. But she just has a weird personality."
"Just take care of your body."
The court doctor nodded: "She is particularly good at pharmacology."
The master actually wants to choose a special female doctor to follow the girl from the Gu family?
Who else but the old lady would receive such treatment?
Zhou Chunyu's cunning eyes rolled around.
He quickly stepped forward and said sympathetically, "Master, can I choose a quiet place in Wenhanxuan for Miss Gu to move in? I'm afraid she will need some time to recover from her injury."
Mu Junyan squinted his eyes and said in a cold tone: "Live in Wenhanxuan?"
Zhou Chunyu's heart skipped a beat.
Is the guess wrong?
You carried the person to your bed.
Isn't it just that you like it?
If you continue to say that Wen Hanxuan doesn't allow women to enter casually, it would seem fake.
Seeing his complicated facial expression, Mu Junyan's tone became even colder: "The Duke's Mansion is so big, can't you find a suitable place to stay?"
Zhou Chunyu knew that his flattery had backfired, so he quickly apologized and said, "Of course, of course. I was just thinking about Miss Gu copying the late Madam's manuscript..."
"The person is injured like this, and you still want to order him around?"
Zhou Chunyu: “…”
Oh.
Is he the one who orders people around?
Zhou Chunyu didn't dare to talk back. His face turned serious instantly and he thought seriously for a moment.
"Then arrange for it to be in Yayun Pavilion next to Xiangrui Hall. It's close to the old lady, and Zhilan also lives nearby, so it's convenient for her to take care of her together with the court doctor. Yayun Pavilion has its own gate and courtyard, so it won't disturb the old lady."
My lord, when you go to visit the old lady, you can visit the girl at the same time without being criticized.
Zhou Chunyu felt that he was becoming more and more considerate of his master.
Mu Junyan was very satisfied: "Let's do it this way."
Zhou Chunyu quickly instructed the servants around him to quickly arrange for people to decorate Jingya Pavilion. He also gave detailed instructions to move the magpie-shaped bed and to inlay the dressing table with magnolia flowers.
Mu Junyan pondered for a moment and said, "Go and talk to Jinxiu Pavilion."
"Yes." Zhou Chunyu responded seriously.
Mu Junyan added: "Just say that the young lady from the in-laws' house is staying here temporarily, and the old lady likes her, so she wants her to keep her company for a while."
Tsk tsk, they brought out the old lady to protect people.
And you still dare to say that you don’t care about me.
Zhou Chunyu had an expression that said, "I know everything but I won't say it out loud."
When had his master ever been fussy about a woman?
The second daughter of the Gu family is unique.
Zhou Zhilan lifted the curtain and came out. She didn't hear the conversation between her master and her brother. She glanced at her master with a complicated expression.
"Master, the clothes have been changed. You need to make your bed again, it's all wet."
If we're keeping someone here tonight, we should at least change the bedding to a new bright red one.
Mu Junyan's clothes were also wet: "I will go to the study after taking a shower. You guys settle the people down."
Zhou Zhilan's eyes widened as she watched the man pat his butt and walk away in a casual manner.
"Really...just settle her down like this? You shouldn't give her a status or something first...Hey, brother, why are you pulling my sleeve?"
Zhou Chunyu was afraid that she would say something else, so he quickly waved his hand and said, "Send her to Yayun Pavilion."
Zhou Zhilan was surprised: "Yayun Pavilion? You said you want to arrange for Huan'er to live in Yayun Pavilion?"
"For now, I don't know about the future."
Zhou Chunyu didn't want to say more: "Go quickly, I have arranged for someone to clean up, you can go and see if there is anything missing and make arrangements yourself."
"Oh, okay."
Zhou Zhilan then became happy and raised her hand to call two servants to bring a sedan chair.
She and the nanny carried the sleeping Gu Huan to the sedan chair.
Fortunately, the rain stopped.
