Before Gu Linchao could speak, Si Yi couldn't hold back and said, "She's lying. When she left the study in the evening, I clearly saw her talking to Mei Yan for a long time. Not long after, Mei Yan went into the master's bedroom. In my opinion, this matter is definitely related to the princess."
Wang Houde couldn't help but say, "Si Yi, do you have some prejudice against the Empress? Even if the Empress spoke with Mei Yan for a while, it doesn't mean that what happened tonight has anything to do with her."
Si Yi was displeased. "This has nothing to do with prejudice. I was just reporting what I saw to my master."
That damned eunuch, was he not properly castrated? He's been bewitched by Wen Nongnong and is siding with her in everything.
“If you have no prejudice against the Empress, I’ll twist my head off and let you kick it around like a ball,” Wang Houde said defiantly.
Si Yi sneered, "You can unscrew it now."
"Aren't you two too idle?" Gu Linchao raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them indifferently.
The two immediately fell silent and lowered their heads.
Gu Linchao raised his hand to rub his temples and said in a deep voice, "You may all leave."
"Yes," the two replied respectfully and left.
As Wang Houde closed the door behind him, he glanced inside with a hint of helplessness.
The master was always a clean freak. Mei Yan secretly sneaked into the master's bedroom and even lay down on the master's bed. The master was disgusted and not only ordered Mei Yan to be beaten with a cane, but also stopped living in the room and moved to a side room.
Right now, the dorm room is still being cleaned, and the owner doesn't want that bed anymore.
Oh, what a tragedy.
Mei Yan is also stupid.
If her master had taken a liking to her, would he have waited until today?
He sighed, and when he looked up, he saw Si Yi with a dark expression.
"Why are you looking at our house like that?" he said, hands on his hips, bluffing.
Si Yi sneered, "I want to punch you!" With that, he threw a punch.
Wang Houde was startled and dodged to the side, yelling, "You brat, are you serious?"
His response was a series of increasingly fierce moves from Si Yi.
Not to be outdone, Wang Houde transformed his whisk into a sharp weapon and attacked Si Yi.
The two were locked in combat.
The following evening.
The Empress Dowager sent Granny Zeng out of the palace.
When Wen Nong Nong was invited to the front hall, she realized that Gu Lin Chao was also there.
She stepped forward, bowed to Gu Linchao, and then sat down next to him.
Granny Zeng looked at the two of them with a smile and finally revealed her purpose.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, this tonic soup was specially prepared by the imperial physician at the Empress Dowager's request. Please drink it while it's hot."
Wen Nongnong then noticed a soup bowl on the table next to her.
After speaking, Granny Zeng personally took two bowls, filled them with soup, and brought them to the two of them.
Wen Nong Nong was puzzled, but thinking that the Empress Dowager would not harm Gu Linchao, she took the bowl with peace of mind and prepared to drink.
However, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Gu Linchao sitting there calmly, not touching the bowl of soup at all.
She paused, then turned to look at him. "Why isn't Your Highness drinking?"
"Yes, Your Highness, you should drink it while it's hot so the medicine will be more effective," Granny Zeng advised.
Gu Linchao glanced at her indifferently.
Granny Zeng's heart skipped a beat, and she lowered her eyes somewhat guiltily.
Wen Nongnong was extremely puzzled, when she saw Gu Linchao's gaze suddenly fall on her face.
After a moment, he looked away, picked up the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing this, Wen Nongnong felt relieved and drank the soup as well.
