He could only bow his head in dismay and said, "I was just... raised on a farm since I was a child. I listened to the aunties from the next village and learned some strange words."
"Is it really like this?" Rong Zhen's eyes were filled with doubts, and he was half-believing and half-doubting what she said. Gu Yunru raised his head and said, "Of course it's true. If you want to believe it, then believe it. If you don't, forget it. Anyway, I don't like to explain to others."
After saying this, she left with a look of excitement on her face. In fact, she was feeling guilty and didn't want to be discovered.
The next morning, Qingxing brought back all the medicinal herbs that Doctor Hu had gathered.
"Miss, according to your instructions, I have distributed them to the servants, asked them to boil the medicine and send it to Chuxiu Palace, and feed it to Ying Ying personally."
"Well, be careful with that girl called Luyun. Don't let her put anything in the medicine."
"Don't worry, Miss has asked Xiaozhang to keep an eye on it."
The scene changed, and Xiaodengzi was wandering around the pharmacy. Seeing Luyun taking some medicinal herbs from here, he hurried back to Chuxiu Palace.
He followed her back quietly, and sure enough, he saw that while the others were decocting the medicine, she was putting another medicine into the medicine jar for Ying to drink.
The small stool hid aside and no one noticed it. After Luyun did this little trick, he left the backyard.
While no one was noticing, he quickly replaced the medicine in the jar.
After Lu Yun finished all this, he secretly met Zi Luo in the nearby purple bamboo forest and said to her, "Don't worry, I have already done it. As long as Ying agrees that she will die after drinking the medicine, then we can naturally suspect Gu Yunru."
"You did a great job. This is a reward from the Queen." Zi Luo took out a stack of silver bags from her pocket and handed it to her.
Seeing this, Lu Yun's eyes lit up, and she said with gratitude: "Thank you, Madam Shufei. If it weren't for Madam Shufei, there would be no way I would be where I am today."
"Yes, Empress Shufei wants me to tell you something." Although Zi Luo still had a smile on her face, the smile was getting colder and colder. Suddenly, a white knife stabbed into Lu Yun's abdomen, and the white knife went in and the red knife came out. Lu Yun had no room to resist at all. She just widened her eyes, blood kept flowing from the corners of her mouth, and she slowly fell to the ground.
After finishing the work, Zi Luo returned to the Millennium Palace.
"Don't worry, Madam. Lu Yun is dead."
"Well done, it's a pity that loser is even worse than you and can't even handle a weak woman."
When Concubine Shu said this, her eyes were full of disgust. She had heard about what happened last night. It was a pity that the guy was arrested and taken to the Dali Temple. He was said to be strictly interrogated. He quickly bribed the people in the Dali Temple and made him shut up no matter what.
"Your Majesty, actually you don't have to do this matter yourself. Just leave everything to me." Zi Luo was an expert in using poison and knew what to do.
"I really didn't train you in vain. I still remember that you and Zi Yan entered the palace to serve at the same time. You were much smarter than Zi Yan. I would let you take the limelight in everything."
"It is my blessing to have your care. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today."
"Alright, let's get this over with quickly. I don't want to have any more nightmares."
"yes."
At the Dali Temple, Cheng Shaoyuan was investigating the case when he suddenly heard the jailer say that the murderer was poisoned. He rushed to the prison and had someone pour sulfur soap water into his stomach, sucking out the poison in his stomach alive. The murderer vomited and had diarrhea, and was tortured to the point of being worse than death.
"You all have to watch carefully. Anyone who brings him food must check it strictly. This is someone sent by the prince, so we can't be careless."
"yes."
Cheng Shaoyuan rescued the murderer in time and the murderer was not dead. He also told Gu Yunru about his discovery.
"Mr. Cheng, please get up quickly. I haven't seen you for a while."
Gu Yunru looked at Cheng Shaoyuan with a warm smile on her face. If she hadn't been engaged to that violent devil, she might have fallen in love with Cheng Shaoyuan. Who wouldn't love such a humble and elegant man? "It turns out that Miss Gu has been in the palace recently. The murderer who was sent to the Dali Temple last night was almost poisoned to death today."
Cheng Shaoyuan told Gu Yunru what happened today, and after listening to it, Gu Yunru looked as if she had expected it.
"I underestimated the loyalty of this assassin. He may not reveal the mastermind behind the scenes. It is impossible to find out who is in his family. It is very likely that he is a group of loyal assassins specially trained by the mastermind behind the scenes."
Gu Yunru admired their will, but at the same time felt sorry for them.
"What the girl said is right. They have indeed been indoctrinated with the idea of being loyal to the head of the household since they were young, so they will not confess easily. Therefore, no matter what kind of torture is used, it will not shake their foundation."
"Hey, what do you think about making him a eunuch?" Gu Yunru thought of this and felt that a man's self-esteem was something every man would sacrifice his life to protect.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shaoyuan lowered his head in embarrassment. This Miss Gu was too uninhibited and could say anything.
"Hehe, just pretend I didn't say anything. I just meant it." Gu Yunru was too lazy to focus on this matter. The plague prescription she wrote was about to succeed.
"Recently, a lot of refugees have poured into the capital, bringing with them the plague." Cheng Shaoyuan told her what happened outside the palace. The palace was very peaceful, and it would be safest for her to stay here.
"Refugees? Where are they from?"
"It seems to be from the south. I heard there was a drought and locust plague there. They had no choice but to flock to Beijing."
"So that's how it is. Well, come back in two days. I have something to give you."
Gu Yunru and he made an agreement. Cheng Shaoyuan didn't know what Gu Yunru was going to give him, but he agreed and promised her that he would come to the palace again in two days.
Not long after Cheng Shaoyuan left, Rong Zhen suddenly appeared at the door, startling her. She said with an unhappy look on her face, "How come you walk without making any sound? Do you know that scaring others can kill them?"
"If you have done nothing wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door."
Rong Zhen suddenly learned to draw inferences from one instance, leaving her speechless.
"Alright, alright, I have something for you to deal with." Gu Yunru was too lazy to argue with him. She said to him, "Send more people to keep an eye on the people in Chuxiu Palace. If Concubine Shu's people have any contact with their people, catch them on the spot."
"kindness."
Rong Zhen just said "yes" lightly, as if he didn't take the matter seriously.
"Hey, I'm helping you save your old lover, what's your attitude?"
