Duan Yu asked Huasheng to spread the news that Zhang Ling was dead. In this way, no matter where Zhang Ling went, he would lose his value as a political bargaining chip.
Although Watson was confused by this sudden order, he faithfully carried out the order of the prince consort. He knew that Duan Yu's move must have a deep meaning.
As Watson spread the news, he couldn't help but feel worried for Qiu Shuang. He knew that the Prince Consort's mind was unfathomable, and his attitude towards Qiu Shuang was also unpredictable.
He always felt that the prince consort was fond of Qiu Shuang.

Gu Yufei and Li Qingxuan hurriedly left with Zhang Ling, still in shock and uneasy about Duan Yu's unusual behavior. They knew Duan Yu would not let them go easily, but they just held back for the time being.
Along the way, Zhang Ling's face grew increasingly pale. He occasionally used his internal energy to fight off the discomfort, but he found himself spitting out a mouthful of black blood each time. He knew something was wrong and suspected Duan Yu had poisoned him.
"We have to find a place to help you heal." Li Qingxuan said worriedly.
Gu Yufei understood what he meant: this villain is still very useful and cannot die like this.
Zhang Ling's voice was weak: "Duan Yu's method is very sophisticated. I'm afraid that no ordinary doctor can solve it."
Gu Yufei said with concern: "No matter what, we can't give up. I will find a way."
Zhang Ling felt warm in his heart.
Did she really have feelings for him?
"When did it happen?" Zhang Ling looked at Gu Yufei and asked.
"What?" Gu Yufei didn't react.
"You said you liked me. When did it start?" Zhang Ling's face turned red.
"Well, it should have been a long time ago." Gu Yufei answered casually.
"So..." Zhang Ling lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
As they were talking, the three of them came to a remote thatched house to hide for a while.
Gu Yufei and Li Qingxuan went out to look for herbs, while Zhang Ling rested in the room, trying his best to suppress the spread of toxins in his body.

"Can you also identify herbs?" Gu Yufei turned over the grass and looked at Li Qingxuan.
"Actually, I don't know how to do it, but I'll give it a try."
Gu Yufei: “…………………………”

At the same time, after letting them go, Duan Yu returned to the accounting office alone.
Watson reported in a low voice: "Sir, I have spread the news as you instructed. Now, the outside world believes that Zhang Ling is dead."
Duan Yu nodded, his face expressionless: "Okay, go down."
Watson hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Are you really going to let Miss Gu go?"
Duan Yu raised his eyes and said softly, "Watson, there are some things you shouldn't ask. Don't ask."
……………………………………………………
Gu Yufei and Li Qingxuan picked a lot of herbs and brought them back to make soup for Zhang Ling to drink.
Zhang Ling vomited blood several times during the night.
Gu Yufei and Li Qingxuan stood beside Zhang Ling's bed, looking at each other.
"It should be fine, right?" Gu Yufei frowned.
Li Qingxuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "If you spit out the poisonous blood, you should be fine. Isn't that what novels always say?"

During this period, Duan Yu was not idle.
He quietly sent his trusted aides to secretly follow Gu Yufei.
