Traveling through time and space to become a lady of a noble family, but she only wants to escape

Ge Zhen quickly turned around and said, "Mother, I have failed to discipline my servants. Please punish me."

In the end, Madam Gu was reluctant to do anything to Ge Zhen, so she just fined him one month's salary and confined him to his home for three days.

Seeing that he had appeased Madam Gu, Ge Zhen turned to Bai Zhi and pretended, "Third sister-in-law, I was bewitched by the servants and wrongly accused you. Please don't take it to heart."

Bai Zhi's mouth twitched.

I didn't take it to heart, but I kept it in my heart.

Sooner or later, I will settle all these things with you.

Seeing that the matter was about to end, Qiao Wanwan hurriedly interrupted and said, "Sister-in-law, let's put things in perspective. Now that the hairpin matter has been resolved, what about the beating of my third brother's wife?"

Before Ge Zhen could reply, Madam Gu frowned and said, "According to Zhi'er, this happened at night. It's hard to tell who disguised themselves as Zhen'er. Zhi'er might have made a mistake. Wanwan, don't mention this anymore."

Qiao Wanwan pursed her lips and responded with a “yes”.

Bai Zhi guessed that Madam Gu would protect Ge Zhen, but she didn't guess that she would do so openly.

Could it be that Ge Zhen has some leverage over Old Lady Gu?

When Bai Zhi returned to Yishuiyuan, it was already dinner time.

She threw herself on the bed.

"Miss! The kitchen said that the Third Master will be back for dinner in the evening. Now that the Third Master hasn't come back yet, we can't serve you dinner. I can only get you a bowl of jasmine sweet soup to fill your stomach...Miss?"

Qiaoqiao leaned in closer to take a look. Baizhi's breathing was even and her lips were slightly open, obviously she was fast asleep.

Qiaoqiao put down the sweet soup carefully and carefully pulled the quilt over Baizhi.

Bai Zhi did not sleep well. The scenes in her dream kept changing. One moment she was thrown into the lake by a masked man, and the next moment she was chopped up and fed to the dogs by Old Madam Gu. After a long time, the original owner was crying in front of her, holding Qiaoqiao's body, and asking her why she did not keep her promise.

Her head felt like it was boiling, and Bai Zhi unconsciously took deep breaths. She accidentally choked on her saliva and started coughing violently. She just woke up from the disordered dream.

It’s still this familiar room.

Gu Yan was sitting at the table reading a book by the oil lamp: "Are you awake? I know what happened last night. You can use the injury during the day to bite the Madam back. I really admire you."

Bai Zhi's mind was very confused. She knew what Gu Yan was saying and could put them into a sentence, but she had no idea what it meant.

Her throat was dry and painful like cracked earth, her hands and feet were weak, and she struggled to get out of bed to get some water to drink.

This boneless posture was too weird. Gu Yan looked at it and gradually frowned: "What's wrong with you?"

Bai Zhi couldn't hear what Gu Yan was asking. After she stood up, she heard bursts of sharp sounds in her ears. She could only stagger with her eyes slightly open looking for water.

"How badly were you injured during the day... Baizhi? Baizhi! Baizhi! Why is it so hot... Mingxin! Qiaoqiao! Call Doctor Fang!"

Doctor Fang took Bai Zhi's pulse and tucked her hand back into the quilt. "Madam San is physically exhausted and has lost both her Qi and blood. I will give her acupuncture and herbal medicine. Third Master, you must hold Madam San well and don't let her move while I give her acupuncture."

Gu Yan followed Doctor Fang's instructions and turned Bai Zhi over on her back, carefully holding her tightly through her clothes.

Doctor Fang injected three needles, and Gu Yan felt Bai Zhi under his hand suddenly struggle, shouting some unintelligible words incoherently.

Ming Tian Chang Feng sent him a message to report that Bai Zhi was in such a state at night when he used the words "not seriously injured" and "powerful". He also said that Bai Zhi was only hit once or twice, so how come she was in such a state at night.

Gu Yan exerted force on his hands, gradually pressing Bai Zhi down so that she could not move.

The flesh under his hands trembled constantly.

Qiaoqiao was so moved by Baizhi's behavior that tears welled up on her face. Mingxin was not good at comforting people, so she could only say dryly, "Qiaoqiao, don't cry. Madam San is a lucky person, and everything will be fine."

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on drinking bayberry juice, how could the young lady have met the thief?"

"Qiaoqiao, how can you be blamed for this? If you want to blame someone, blame those thieves."

After Doctor Fang had given Bai Zhi thirteen needles, her clothes were already soaked with cold sweat.

Gu Yan placed the back of his hand on Bai Zhi's forehead: "The fever has subsided."

Doctor Fang picked up his pen and wrote down the prescription: "Boil it for an hour, take it twice a day, one in the morning and one in the evening. Avoid cold food. Take care of yourself for a month. I will come back to check Madam Third's pulse after a month."

Gu Yan tucked in the quilt for Bai Zhi and sent Doctor Fang to the gate of the Marquis' Mansion.

Fang Zhiheng put aside his previous pedantry and showed a bitter face: "Your Highness, the people in Heyang Valley are unstable and ready to make a move. You have to be aware of this."

Gu Yan waved his folding fan and said, "Know that it is constant. If it comes, you should accept it and don't rush."

Fang Zhiheng twisted his face into a chrysanthemum.

Gu Yan put aside his romantic attitude and said seriously, "I know my limits, don't worry too much."

Fang Zhiheng was worried, so he gave a few more instructions before hurriedly saying goodbye.

When Gu Yan returned to the room, he found Qiaoqiao still guarding Baizhi's bed.

"You guys go back to sleep, I'll just keep an eye on it."

Qiaoqiao lowered her head and said, "Third Master, Miss... Third Madam is sweating all over. Let me change her clothes. Mingxin, you should go back to sleep."

Seeing Ming Xin leaving the door, Gu Yan slowly walked to Qiaoqiao's side and said, "Do you have anything to say to me?"

Qiaoqiao lifted her skirt and knelt in front of Gu Yan: "Qiaoqiao asks the Third Master to help the Third Madam."

Gu Yan sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for Qiaoqiao to continue.

"The Third Master should have known that today the Third Madam was beaten in the street by the assassins sent by the First Madam. The Third Madam was left with scars all over her body. After returning home at night, she was wrongly accused by the First Madam." Qiaoqiao held back her tears and said in a sad voice, "Qiaoqiao knows that the Third Master only needs the Third Madam to calm the Old Madam, but the First Madam keeps forcing her. The Third Madam can't even take a breath, so how can she calm the Old Madam? I beg the Third Master to come forward and give the Third Madam a moment of peace!"

Gu Yan's voice was emotionless: "Even if you don't say anything, I will come forward to judge the matter."

Qiaoqiao didn't expect it to be so easy, and was overjoyed for a moment: "Qiaoqiao thanks Third Master! Qiaoqiao thanks Third Master!"

"Qiaoqiao, Madam San and I are husband and wife in name only. I should take responsibility for everything. Please don't do this again." Gu Yan changed the subject and said, "Please change Madam San into some dry clothes."

Gu Yan sat at the table, unable to fall asleep.

Changfeng is an extremely skilled martial artist with sharp five senses. With him protecting her all the way, how could Bai Zhi be injured like this?

Bai Zhi had changed into a new set of underwear and was sleeping soundly on the bed. Gu Yan quietly raised the window and called out to the outside: "Chang Feng."

The next moment, Changfeng appeared in front of Gu Yan.

When Gu Yan saw Changfeng, the harsh words he wanted to ask were stuck in his throat for a moment, and he could only say helplessly: "Changfeng, what's wrong with you?"

Chang Feng showed no expression: "I am His Highness's bodyguard, and I am not used to protecting others."

"Changfeng," Gu Yan suddenly became serious, "Every step in the Marquis' Mansion brings disaster. Bai Zhi is smart and has a clean background. I need her to be my ally."

After a while, Chang Feng spoke: "I understand."

Gu Yan slowed down his tone and said, "Changfeng, I have been practicing the martial arts booklet you gave me for the past few years without interruption. I can protect myself, so you don't have to worry about me."

Changfeng's expression eased a little, and he nodded and said, "I understand."
