"Xiaoyao Powder is not like other poisons. It's very difficult to make, and the ingredients are extremely rare. Even if you search the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, you probably won't find another bottle of Xiaoyao Powder. It's precisely because of its rarity and secrecy that it can kill people without them even noticing."
"Five hundred taels is the best price I can offer. I won't sell it for less than that."
Gu Pianran was in a dilemma. She didn't want to miss this good thing, but she had no money.
Just when I was in a dilemma, someone knocked on the guest room door.
"Who?" Gu Pianran looked towards the door with a stern look.
"It's me, Miss."
A familiar voice came from outside the door.
When Gu Pianran heard the voice, she was ecstatic.
She immediately stood up, opened the door, and was very happy to see Gu Yun safe and sound.
"Gu Yun, how did you find me?"
"I asked someone on the way and found out that the young lady had gone to Kyoto, so I came here to look for her." Gu Yun's eyes fell on the man in the room.
After Gu Pianran invited people in, she did not introduce them to each other, after all, they were not friends.
"Gu Yun, do you have any money on you?"
"How much does Miss need?" Gu Yun asked without thinking.
"Five hundred taels."
Gu Yun felt his pocket and found exactly five silver notes of one hundred taels each.
Gu Pianran happily gave the five hundred taels to Bei Yutang. Bei Yutang happily accepted the money and then handed the bottle of "Xiaoyao Powder" to her.
"Girl, I give you the things. You must keep them safe."
"Um."
After Bei Yutang left the room, Gu Pianran and Gu Yun sat opposite each other.
Gu Yun told her in detail what happened in Chang'an City.
"Is everything okay at home?" Gu Pianran asked.
Gu Yun hesitated for a moment before finally nodding, "Very good."
As soon as Gu Pianran saw his expression, she knew he was lying to her. She knew very well what kind of person that favored stepmother was.
"Miss, what did you buy?" Gu Yun looked at the porcelain vase on the table.
"poison."
Gu Yun was shocked, "Miss, why did you buy this?"
"Of course it's for someone."
"Miss, are you planning to poison Mu Zhitao and her son?" Gu Yun asked in surprise. "Prince Jin poisoned them before, but they didn't die. Will this poison work?"
"No. This bottle of poison is not prepared for them and their son, but for Hua Feiyu." Gu Pianran said coldly word by word.
Speaking of Hua Feiyu, Gu Yun thought of the situation when he went to the eldest prince's mansion to look for someone, and immediately understood that the eldest lady must have been wronged there, which made her have this idea.
"Miss, leave this matter to me." Gu Yun's dark eyes were filled with murderous intent.
He will never let go of anyone who dares to bully the eldest lady.
"No need. I want to poison him myself and watch him drink the poisoned wine."
"No. This is too dangerous. After all, this is the Great Zhou Dynasty. If he dies on the spot, you, young lady, will definitely be implicated. Let me handle this matter." Gu Yun said stubbornly.
Gu Pianran chuckled, "Silly girl, how could I possibly ruin my prime years for a man like that? Have you heard of 'Xiaoyao Powder'? After taking it, no one can detect poisoning, and the poisoned person can't tell they're poisoned either, they just like drinking and having fun every night. He's dead, and we left Kyoto long ago, so who would suspect us? Tomorrow, please ask him out for a chat."
