Chapter 41 You Knew I Would Come
After hearing this, Lu Wenxue said directly, "Are you trying to provoke me? Do you think that by using this method, I will calm down and everyone will thank you? You want to step on me to boost your own reputation, but you don't even consider your own worth. Do you really think that just because the emperor has given you the title of County Lady, you can be on equal footing with the royal family?"
Gu Ruanci looked at her as if she was a fool.
She approached Lu Wenxue, saying, "It seems that Princess Mingyue is very dissatisfied with the Emperor's decision."
"The Emperor only gave you the title of County Lady to comfort you because of the Duke of Shou. Do you think it's your own fault?"
Lu Wenxue was still talking there, with an extremely arrogant expression.
Gu Ruanci had already walked up to her with a smile on her face.
“You—Ah!”
Before Lu Wenxue could finish her words, Gu Ruanci suddenly attacked, pulled her hair, ripped off the hairpin on her head, and pressed it against her neck.
"People in the royal family, do they have two lives? Apologize to me immediately!"
Lu Wenxue was terrified. Looking at the onlookers, she felt completely humiliated.
The royal dignity brought her back to her senses.
"I don't believe you dare to hurt me. Don't forget, I am the only daughter of Prince Duan and the emperor's niece!"
Gu Ruanci didn't waste any words and just lowered the hairpin a little.
Bright red blood beads appeared on Lu Wenxue's neck, and Zhou Qinzhu covered her eyes in fear.
"Sister Soft Words, please stop it! No matter what Wen Xue said, I am willing to apologize to you on her behalf!"
Zhou Qinzhu's words at this time gave Lu Wenxue absolute comfort.
"Who do you think you are? Didn't you hear what County Lady Mingyue just said? She's a member of the royal family, and she doesn't even take me, the county lady personally appointed by the emperor, seriously. How dare you, a young lady from a marquisate with an unknown background, call me sister and even address her by her first name?"
Gu Ruanci's behavior has made everyone present nervous.
Even Wu Yixuan advised: "Sister, it's not worth it..."
Gu Ruanci smiled and said, "Sister Yixian, there is no such thing as worth it or not. Some people just need to be taught a lesson. If a slap doesn't land on her face, she thinks her teeth are strong."
After saying that, she turned to the frightened Lu Wenxue and said, "I asked you to apologize. Didn't you hear me?"
Lu Wenxue finally cried out, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
Gu Ruanci let go of her hand, and she fell to the ground like a puddle of mud, covering her neck, looking distraught.
The people around her had just been separated by Nong Chun and Zang Xia, and only rushed over at this time.
"County Lady, County Lady..."
This time, Lu Wenxue didn't have the energy to curse, and instead let them help her up.
“Gu Ruanci, you’ve gone too far this time!”
Zhou Yuzhi finally dared to speak. After seeing the situation just now, even he believed that Gu Ruanci really dared to take action.
"Why, Master Zhou Er came here with County Lady Mingyue this time, hoping to use her identity to get a chance to meet Little Medical Fairy. So after hearing all the nonsense she just said, he was indifferent and even secretly supported her?"
Zhou Yuzhi was choked by Gu Ruanci.
Gu Yulou and Gu Yuxuan had also arrived and directly protected Gu Ruanci behind them.
"County Lady Mingyue, if you want to seek revenge, come directly to our Shouguo Mansion."
Although Gu Yulou doesn't talk much on weekdays, he always leaves a deep impression on people.
Lu Wenxue's legs are still weak, but her mouth is still hard.
"Okay, just wait for me."
After saying that, she let the maid help her to the side.
The Taoist priest saw that the biggest obstacle had been cleared, and although he was worried about Gu Ruanci, he didn't want to disrupt today's arrangements.
He reorganized the order and asked everyone to draw lots in turn.
When Lu Wenxue left, she glared at Gu Ruanci fiercely.
Wu Yixian stepped forward, took Gu Ruanci's hand, and said, "Although what I did today was very satisfying, I was indeed a little impulsive. When I return, I will tell my father that if Prince Duan makes trouble in the court, I will definitely unite with the ministers to clarify the truth. It was Princess Mingyue who was aggressive first. Although you punished her, it was also to maintain the majesty of the emperor."
Gu Ruanci nodded and said, "Don't worry, Sister Yixian, she won't dare. But I appreciate your kindness. Haven't you already drawn the lot? Go to your room and wait. If Xiao Yixian comes to look for your room and you're not there, you'll miss it."
She took a look at Wu Yixuan's number and wrote it down calmly.
"Little sister, what's your number?" Gu Yulou asked after Wu Yixuan and the others left.
"What's wrong, Third Brother?"
"Nothing. I was thinking that if Little Medical Fairy comes to my place later, I'll just ask her to find you. Yuxuan and I are here today just to help you. We don't have anything to ask from Little Medical Fairy."
Gu Yulou's words were sincere and warm.
After showing them, Gu Ruanci smiled and said, "Third brother, I'm here to join in the fun. It doesn't matter if I'm not selected. There are dozens of people here."
After they separated, Gu Ruanci quickly came out by herself, put on a veil, and went to meet the abbot of the temple.
"Meet Junior Master..."
The master of the temple here is Taoist Zixu, a disciple of Taoist Qing Tuan.
"Are you all ready?" Gu Ruanci asked.
"Yes, Uncle Zang has already sent the person to the mountain in advance. He is now in Room 1 over there, which is relatively hidden..."
"Lead the way."
Lu Enyan had been sitting in Room No. 1 for quite some time, and he knew everything that was happening outside.
He did not mind that Lu Wenxue once again caused trouble under the banner of their Prince Duan's Mansion, but was dealt with by Gu Ruanci.
"Young Master, it seems like someone is coming..." Xu Dongting said.
"Go guard the door..."
"yes……"
When Taoist Zixu appeared in front of the door with Gu Ruanci, Xu Dongting was actually a little surprised.
Even if he had thought of it, Doctor Zang might have already told Xiao Yixian about it in advance.
"Please make way..." Gu Ruanci said calmly.
Xu Dongting quickly made way and went to the other side with Taoist Zixu.
"Greetings, my Lord. How are you?"
When Gu Ruanci saw the person inside, he simply bowed. He had only seen the back before, but now he saw the person's true face.
Lu Enyan is very handsome. If it weren't for the torture of illness over the years, he should have been very strong. But now he looks a bit like a doctor.
"It seems you knew from the beginning that I would come."
Lu Enyan didn't mind when he saw Gu Ruanci wearing a veil.
"If I hadn't known the Crown Prince was here, I wouldn't have been so impulsive and treated your foolish sister so harshly. Now that the trouble has been caused, I know why the Crown Prince came this time. I will do my best to treat your illness. Please help me control this mad dog in your Prince Duan's Mansion, as well as any other dogs that may appear in the future."
