Chapter 228 What happened

Walking on the road, the man with ox eyes was walking in front of Gu Junqing, Gu Jiyan, Xue Ben and the others, leading the way, while the two servants beside him were a little timid and simply followed behind Gu Junqing and the others.

The three of them didn't mind and followed the two servants.

The man with the bull eyes felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to turn around and glare at the two servants. He just led the way with his head lowered stiffly.

While leading the way, he still thought of strategies in his mind.

In fact, no matter how respectful the man with bull eyes seemed to be to Gu Ji Yan when they were confronting each other, he actually did not take him seriously in his heart.

After all, in the eyes of everyone in the capital, Gu Jiyan gave them the impression of being a know-nothing and not very smart. He thought that he should be able to fool Gu Jiyan, this know-nothing young man, and Xue Ben was just an ordinary person, how could he possibly take the blame that he forced on him.

This is what he thought at first, but after seeing Gu Junqing, his original idea began to crumble. After all, in his eyes, Gu Junqing had been fighting in the wars for many years, and the people in the world all praised her. The man with ox eyes knew that Gu Junqing was definitely not a fool who knew nothing and was not so easy to fool.

He was panicking inside, but he continued on the road. The group spoke very little and soon arrived at the home of the man with the cow eyes.

Judging from the fact that the man with ox eyes can bring two servants with him, his family is quite wealthy.

Although it is not as exquisite and noble as the mansions in the official compound, it is also a mansion, but the decoration inside is very different from the common decoration style of the people in the capital at that time. It looks a bit too flashy. There are no rockeries or flowers in the mansion. There is a monotonous pond with a group of ducks paddling in the middle of the pond. There is also a small courtyard near the pond, which looks like a resting place for the owner.

Overall it is a bit monotonous, but upon closer inspection, I find it is quite attractive.

Following the footsteps of the man with ox eyes, the group came to a bamboo courtyard with the words "Bamboo Garden" clearly written on a plaque.

The people in the capital would not build a bamboo courtyard in their own house, which was not in harmony with the house. Perhaps it affected the appearance or was a kind of superstition. Gu Junqing was not sure, but she had not seen it many times. The few times she had seen it were in other places, such as the northwest border.

Gu Junqing withdrew his gaze and turned his attention back to the man with bull eyes.

She could clearly see that after the bull-eyed man brought them into the house, his expression became tense from time to time. She didn't know what he was thinking about, but he looked a little scared, which made her a little confused.

Gu Jiyan was quite careless and hadn't noticed that there was something wrong with the expression of the man with the cow eyes. He was staring at the bamboo courtyard not far away and no one knew what he was thinking.

As for Xue Ben, when Gu Junqing just looked at him, he seemed to notice something and turned his head to look back at her.

No words were spoken, but both saw the same emotion in each other's eyes.

After the group entered the bamboo courtyard, they saw several servants walking back and forth at the front door of the eaves, looking quite anxious.

Seeing this, the bull-eyed man took a few quick steps, walked up to one of the servants, and asked:

"What happened? Why are you like that? What are you doing here?"

Three questions were asked in a row, and the bull-eyed man did not forget to glance at Gu Junqing's reaction while he was speaking, as if he wanted to let the three of them know that what he had said before was true.

However, when he saw that the three people had no expression, he withdrew his gaze with some regret and turned his attention back to the servant in front of him.

This servant has never seen anyone before, and does not know the identities of the three people, Gu Junqing, who followed the man with the cow eyes. I only saw that they all looked handsome, refined and noble, with tall and straight figures, except for the one standing in the middle who was a little thin, but was the best-looking of the three. This servant lowered her eyes, and her face, which was covered by the shadow, could not help but turn red. She seemed a little embarrassed, and her voice became lower:

"Madam is feeling very uncomfortable all over and has been vomiting frequently. She hasn't eaten anything today. We are so anxious that we don't know what to do. We want to invite the doctor who came yesterday to come to our house."

Yesterday's doctor?

Gu Junqing fixed his eyes on the bull-eyed man, waiting for his next words. Upon hearing this, the bull-eyed man refused immediately: "No!"

Gu Junqing raised her eyebrows. This was obviously what she expected from the bull-eyed man’s reaction.

Xue Ben, who was standing aside, had no change in expression, as if he had guessed that the man with the bull eyes would refuse.

Gu Jiyan could naturally tell that when the man with the ox eyes said these two words, there was a hint of panic in his tone. Although it was not obvious, it could not escape the attention of those top old foxes who were trying to guess the thoughts of the ministers in the court.

He was much more direct and said to the maid, "Your master asked you to call the doctor from yesterday. Go quickly."

The servant looked at Gu Jiyan in confusion. She didn't know who the man who suddenly interrupted her was, but seeing her master's seemingly respectful attitude towards the person in front of her, she knew that the identity of the man in front of her was not ordinary. However, she still habitually obeyed her master's orders, so she turned her gaze back to the man with bull eyes.

The man with bull eyes naturally did not dare to disobey what Gu Jiyan said, but he did not want to listen to everything and appear to have no opinion of his own.

"Remember to tell the doctor from yesterday to bring the boy doctor behind him with you."

The man with the bull eyes tried to speak as quietly as possible so that Gu Junqing and the others wouldn't hear.

However, the three of them had good hearing and finally heard what the bull-eyed man said. However, they did not ask any more questions. They were just curious and puzzled about the medical boy in their hearts. Could it be that the focus was on the medical boy mentioned by the bull-eyed man?

That's something to take a closer look at.

As soon as the maid left, the door that was originally closed suddenly opened, and another maid came out. Compared with the nervous look of the previous maid, the one in front of her could be said to be panicked. It seemed that she had seen something incredible.

The bull-eyed man was a little annoyed, but seeing that Gu Junqing and Xue Ben were watching him deal with this matter, he didn't want to give people a bad impression of himself, so he was rarely more patient with these servants, suppressed the impatience in his voice, and asked again:

"What happened to my lady?"
