"I came back in such a hurry that I didn't even bother to shower and change clothes."

For several nights, Qin Zhongwan and others slept outdoors without enough water to drink, let alone boil hot water for bathing.

It was dusty and the clothes on my body were not clean.

Gu Siyuan was worried and checked carefully. He rolled up Qin Zhongwan's sleeves and began to look at her arms to see if there were any hidden wounds.

Qin Zhongwan's temperament has always been to report good news but not bad news. Faced with Gu Siyuan's sincere concern, a warm current surged through his heart. He honestly asked Gu Siyuan to check and confirm that there were no wounds on his body. After seeing it with his own eyes, Gu Siyuan felt at ease.

The dirty clothes on his body were secondary, Qin Zhongwan had more important things to tell Gu Siyuan.

"I went to Nanjiang County this time. People in that county are spreading rumors that the emperor is seriously ill and will die soon."

Qin Zhongwan's words set off a storm in Gu Siyuan's heart, and he looked at the other party with visible shock.

"Gu Siyuan, there is a lot of rumors outside, but you and I know nothing about the border area. Even when we went to Luoping Pass, there was no news at all. We were all kept in the dark."

After saying that, Qin Zhongwan laughed at himself.

Gu Siyuan frowned, seeming to be deep in thought.

Qin Zhongwan was quiet and did not disturb Gu Siyuan's thoughts.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he thought of Gu Siyi's abnormality and the news Qin Zhongwan brought back, and it seemed that there were traces to follow.

"A few days ago, Gu Siyi came to see me..."

"Kneel down?" Qin Zhongwan lost his voice in surprise.

He never expected that Gu Siyi would one day willingly kneel down and apologize to Gu Siyuan.

"What's his plan?"

Qin Zhongwan blurted out. Obviously, she didn't believe that Gu Siyi was sincerely begging for forgiveness.

Gu Siyuan nodded. Even though a few days had passed, looking back on this matter, he still felt suspicious and strange.

It has been more than half a month since the Queen's first letter, and the second one has yet to arrive.

If Gu Siyuan's guess was correct, I'm afraid the queen couldn't help herself. It wasn't that she didn't want to spread the news, but that she couldn't.

There is not only one queen in the palace, Yun Bin, who is beautiful but also stupid, but there is also the Yun family behind her.

Maybe the person behind Gu Siyi's back had played a huge chess game, and they were all pawns now.

"Is it possible that Gu Siyi thinks that if the emperor is seriously ill, he will have an opportunity to take his place?"

Gu Siyi sincerely regrets, that was a complete joke, nearly 20 years of ambition, years of planning, the glory of the Yun family...

None of these things can be freely given up by Gu Siyi himself.

"I think something is wrong with Gu Siyi. He is absolutely impossible. Sincerely, Gu Siyuan, you have to be careful about him."

Qin Zhongwan subconsciously gave instructions, and Gu Siyuan also had the same idea as Qin Zhongwan.

He didn't believe Gu Siyi's words and deeds, it was just that it was hard to show his face openly.

Now that his father is seriously ill, Gu Siyi may want to seize this opportunity to do something small, but Gu Siyuanjiao, who has been prepared for it, will not let him do it easily.

After telling Gu Siyuan everything he saw and heard on the road, Qin Zhongwan also let go of something on his mind.

Perhaps returning to Gu Siyuan made her feel at ease, but the fatigue she had felt in the past few days suddenly came to her. Qin Zhongwan felt a little sleepy, and her eyelids dropped heavily.

"I want to take a bath."

Qin Zhongwan suppressed his sleepiness and said to Gu Siyuan.

She herself couldn't stand the smell on her body, but only the person in front of her didn't dislike it at all.
