Chapter 206: Clearly Deliberately Making Things Difficult for Him...
"The eldest princess..."
Zhiqiu suddenly stood up, grabbed his hair frantically with both hands, and screamed in a sharp and shrill voice.
Her body was shaking violently and she was in extreme pain.
Gu Junze had never expected Zhiqiu to suddenly lose control, so he hurried forward and tried to comfort her.
"Aunt Zhiqiu, don't be afraid. It's me, Junze."
But Zhiqiu, who was in an extremely crazy state, could not listen at all. He raised his hand and grabbed Gu Junze. His sharp nails scratched his arm, leaving several blood marks in an instant.
Doctor Qian heard the shouting coming from inside the house and hurried over.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw the chaotic scene and hurriedly shouted, "Prince, hold her down!"
Gu Junze ignored the pain in his arm and controlled Zhiqiu.
Doctor Qian stepped forward quickly and inserted the silver needle accurately into Zhiqiu's neck.
Under the influence of the silver needles, Zhiqiu's movements gradually slowed down, and his emotions gradually stabilized, but he continued to mutter, "What do you choose? What do you choose?"
She seemed to be very obsessed with this sentence, but it was confusing.
Gu Junze finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the chair.
Doctor Qian walked over to him, took out the golden wound medicine from the medicine box, and carefully wiped Gu Junze's wound. As he wiped, he said: "Fortunately, it's just a scratch, the wound is not deep. Apply some medicine and it will be healed in a few days."
Gu Junze seemed not to hear what Doctor Qian said, and his mind was full of Zhiqiu's out-of-control look just now.
He suddenly grabbed Doctor Qian's hand and said, "Doctor Qian, thank you for your help."
Doctor Qian understood that he was referring to Zhiqiu. "Don't worry, Prince. If there's really no way to awaken her consciousness, I'll kill her quickly and save her from further torture."
Gu Junze looked at Zhiqiu who had calmed down. His face was haggard and his brows were still slightly furrowed.
What does this sentence mean?
Who should choose?
There was silence all the way, the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground rhythmically.
The two of them rode the same horse. Chu Ruohan sat in front of Gu Junze. Her eyes were a little empty as she stared blankly into the distance.
Every time she went to see Zhiqiu, she felt extremely heavy-hearted.
Zhiqiu's painful look was like a huge stone pressing on her heart.
If it weren't for the purpose of finding out the truth about the eldest princess' death and giving justice to the Tian family, she really wanted to kill Marquis Anyang immediately.
As soon as I stepped into Hongmeng Courtyard, I ran into Nanny Zhou.
"Greetings to the Crown Prince and his wife."
She straightened up slightly and continued, "The Queen Mother is urging us again, and it just so happens that the Crown Prince is having a day off today. I've prepared something..."
It was said that Gu Junze was a little distracted in the morning, but now, the two of them had no time to deal with all this.
Gu Junze looked tired and waved his hand, "I know what's going on with this matter. Ma'am, please go back!"
After saying that, he walked straight into the house.
Chu Ruohan chased in and turned around to close the door.
There was no light in the room, only the afterglow of moonlight, and neither of them spoke.
Chu Ruohan walked over to Gu Junze and hugged him gently.
Gu Junze also stretched out his arms and hugged her back tightly.
He rested his chin on Chu Ruohan's head, took a deep breath, and felt her warmth and breath.
They just snuggled up to each other, as if they were the only ones left in the world.
next day
Chu Ruohan woke up at noon, but there was no one on the bed beside her.
She reached out and touched it; it was cold!
That means I've been away for a long time.
"Young Madam, you're awake."
Yuling placed the basin on a shelf nearby, ready to help Chu Ruohan wash and dress.
Chu Ruohan sat up, rubbed her still sleepy eyes, and asked, "Where's the prince? How long have you been gone?"
Yuling answered while skillfully combing Chu Ruohan's hair.
"The prince left at dawn and specifically told me not to disturb you so you could get some more sleep. He also said that the military camp was busy and he had to go there early to deal with it."
In peacetime, countries conduct business without infringing on each other.
What kind of important military affairs could a centurion stationed in the capital's army have waiting for him to deal with?
It was obvious that she was deliberately making things difficult for him...
Thinking of Lieutenant General Li, Chu Ruohan's eyes darkened and she waved, "Yuling, go find some beggars and have them come to the Feng family's gate..."
She lowered her voice and gave Yuling some detailed instructions.
Yuling took the order and left. Soon, she arrived at the door of Feng's house with a few ragged beggars.
“Let’s get started!”
These beggars sang the special children's song at the top of their lungs: "The courtyard of the general's mansion is large... The concubine's son is very intelligent. If she studies hard and learns to read and write, the family property will belong to her sooner or later..."
The singing rose and fell, echoing in the streets and alleys, attracting many passers-by to stop and watch.
When the maids in Feng's house heard the shrill singing, they panicked and rushed out to drive them away: "Go away! Stop singing here! Get out of here!"
As he spoke, he waved his broom, trying to drive the beggars away. But the beggars refused to leave easily and sang even more vigorously.
The maids had no choice but to rush back to the mansion and report to the inner chambers.
At this time, Feng was leisurely sipping tea in the room. When she heard the maid's report, her face turned ashen instantly, and the teacup in her hand fell heavily to the ground with a "bang".
"This is outrageous! Bring in all those beggars who can sing this lousy nursery rhyme! I want to see who's behind this!"
Soon, several beggars were brought to Feng with their hands tied behind their backs.
Feng's face was filled with anger, and she glared at them fiercely: "Tell me! Who ordered you to come here and sing such nonsense?"
The beggars were trembling with fear, but they kept their mouths shut and said nothing.
"You bunch of bastards, don't refuse my toast and then drink the wine for punishment!"
She turned to look at the guard beside her and ordered fiercely, "Beat them until they tell the truth!"
The guards immediately rolled up their sleeves upon receiving the order.
"I say... I say..."
"We all heard it from Lieutenant General Li. He said his sister gave General Feng two sons, and it's uncertain who will inherit the family business in the future!"
Feng was furious. She was usually too tolerant towards these concubines.
Aunt Li actually had such thoughts and dared to publicize them... She doesn't know what's good for her.
He seems docile and well-behaved on weekdays, but he actually has such evil ambitions.
"Call Aunt Li over to me!"
Soon, Aunt Li was hurriedly brought in by the maid.
When she saw the beggar with his skin torn and the mistress glaring at her, Aunt Li's heart skipped a beat and she secretly thought that something was wrong.
But he still pretended to be calm, bowed, and said softly: "Sister, what's wrong?"
Feng sneered, "What's wrong? You did a good thing yourself, and you're still pretending to be confused!"
As she spoke, she stood up suddenly...
