Seeing her beautiful eyes filled with tears, Cheng Shaoyuan was at a loss. He was the least knowledgeable when it came to seeing a girl crying, so he seemed a little restrained when he saw this.

"Don't cry... If you cry, your makeup won't look good."

Gu Junyao nodded while sobbing, sat down and looked at him and said, "Brother Shaoyuan, are you really not going to make the decision for Yao'er? Don't you have Yao'er in your heart?"

"Yao'er, the situation has been decided. I don't know what to do. I just hope you can find a husband of your dreams."

Cheng Shaoyuan looked at the tears flashing in her clear eyes, and the shackles in his heart became heavier and heavier.

"I don't want any ideal husband. I only want Brother Shaoyuan. I only want Brother Shaoyuan to be with me!" Gu Junyao cried and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

Cheng Shaoyuan just looked at her silently. After she finally stopped crying, he remembered the important matter.

"That day, the person who sent you to Beijing was a ragged beggar. Do you know him?" Gu Junyao sobbed, frowned in confusion, and said, "What beggar? How could I know a beggar?"

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered something. When she was sent to the mansion, she always thought that Brother Shaoyuan saved her, but she forgot about Ah Chou. So she immediately asked, "Where is that beggar now?"

The scene changed, and Cheng Shaoyuan brought the two sisters of the Gu family to the Dali Temple. Gu Junyao came to the cell, pinched her nose in disgust, and looked left and right several times but couldn't find Ah Chou.

Sure enough, he was found in the most inconspicuous corner. At this time, he was unkempt and dirty, and he would emit a foul odor when you approached him.

"It's him. It's him."

Gu Junyao shouted excitedly, with a gleam of light in her eyes.

Ah Chou was brought into the Gu Mansion with many old and new wounds on his body. Gu Junyao specially invited a doctor to treat him. In Tinghua Garden, Qingxing reported everything she saw and heard to Gu Yunru.

After hearing this, Gu Yunru ate the nuts in her hand, turned her head and looked at Qingxing and said, "The second young lady brought back an ugly guy. Is he the one we saw in the prison last time?"

Qing Xing nodded, and hesitantly muttered, "It should be, but the beggar is too dirty and smelly, and seems to be dying. I'm afraid he can't be saved."

Gu Yunru clapped his hands, stood up, wiped his sleeves and said, "Forget it, the good show is over, it's time to do some serious work."

"Miss, what's the matter?"

"Millennium Palace."

Inside the Millennium Palace.

Empress Shufei specially secretly summoned Grand Chancellor Xie Yihui and invited him to drink tea together. Halfway through the drink, Empress Shufei showed a sad look on her face and sighed softly.

Xie Yihui looked at Concubine Shu's face. She seemed listless these past few days and was probably worried about something.

"Your Majesty, I have heard about what happened in the palace. Please rest assured, Concubine Shu, this matter will definitely not be allowed to go unpunished."

Concubine Shu rubbed her temples with a headache on her face, and moved her eyes to Xie Yihui's face, "Grand Chancellor, what you said does reassure me, but I'm still worried. I helped you take care of so many people before, and I have nightmares when I sleep. How are you going to repay me?"

Xie Yihui paused, and quickly bowed beside her, then stood up and looked at Concubine Shu and said, "These people are trying to deceive the emperor, and they deserve to die. As for Gu Yunru, I also know a little bit. This girl is really different from the daughters of ordinary noble families.

If she is really allowed to marry into Prince Zhao's mansion, who knows what kind of trouble will arise in the future."

"I also think that this matter cannot be tolerated. If they want to investigate, let them do it. However, they have to find some scapegoats."

Concubine Shu curled her lips coldly. The scene changed, Ying agreed to stay in the house and wait for that person to appear in front of her, just to watch from afar, but God was unwilling to satisfy her.

"Your Majesty, Prince Zhao has not entered the palace today. Would you like to take a rest first?"

Xiuyun stood behind her and said humbly.

"It's okay. I just want to see the weather outside and hear the birds singing. To be honest, I really envy those birds. If they want to see someone they want to see, they may be able to see him or her in the blink of an eye."

Xiuyun didn't know why Ying promised to say these words so frequently, and at this time, the eunuch's voice came from outside the door.

"Her Majesty the Concubine has arrived."

When Ying heard that it was Concubine Shu who came, she felt a little uneasy and nervous.

"Greetings, Madam Shufei."

Ying agreed and bowed, then raised her haggard face to look at the radiant Concubine Shu. Her cold and flawless face showed no emotion as she sat calmly and generously in her seat.

"I haven't seen you for a while, so I took some time out today to come and see you. Are you feeling well these days?" Concubine Shu looked at her with a smile on her face, but Ying Daxing was fidgeting, his sharp eyes clearly revealing a cold murderous intent.

"My sister is fine. Thank you for your concern." Ying agreed and coughed lightly when she said this, giving people a feeling of being weak and vulnerable.

"Sister, are you still not well? It's been more than two months." Concubine Shu looked at her with disgust, and only revealed a gentle and calm smile when Ying agreed and raised her eyes.

"The imperial physician said that after the serious illness, my body has been weak ever since, so I should not be exposed to the wind and sun." Shu Fei's stern eyes revealed a hint of disdain. She was already so sick, yet she was still showing off here. She was nothing but a lowly prostitute in a brothel and a mediocre beauty.

"So that's how it is. I just came to see my sister today on behalf of the emperor. Since my sister is already much better, I won't bother her any more."

Concubine Shu showed a bit of cold temperament on her frosty face. She stood up and left Ying's sight. When Xiuyun sent Concubine Shu and others away, she turned around and looked at her and said, "Your Majesty, I always feel that Concubine Shu came here this time... with bad intentions."

"No matter what his purpose is, I don't have any power now anyway. Concubine Shu wants to kill me, it's just a thought. My life is in the hands of others, so why would I be insincere?"

Ying agreed and her face turned pale. Then she coughed again, but unexpectedly, she coughed up a handkerchief of blood. Xiuyun was so scared that she didn't know what to do. "My queen, I'll go get the imperial physician!"

"No, it's better not to ask the doctor for this kind of thing."

Ying agreed with a pale face and then covered her chest. She just wanted to see Rong Zhen for the last time before leaving, but she didn't know whether this wish could come true.
