Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me
Chapter 99: Waiting for you to win the first prize... Come and marry me!
During the time the two of them were staying in the rockery, Qilan had already been taken by Qiao Yan to have her body examined by several masters in the mansion, but the overt diagnosis would not arouse anyone's suspicion.
After finishing the inspection, she hurried back to find her master. Seeing their slightly red ears, she reported directly without thinking much.
"Miss, besides the old master Gu, there are also some toxins in his body, but they are not as serious as the old master's. I will bring the antidote to him later and he can just take one."
Once the conversation started, Mu Qingli didn't care about blushing and quickly asked for the news.
"Where's Aunt Fang?"
Qilan shook her head, her expression serious. "Both ladies only have some minor health problems, nothing serious. The palace doctor can take good care of them on a daily basis."
So, only the men in the Gu family were poisoned? But why wasn't Gu Luoheng poisoned? Was it because he hadn't yet touched the interests of the people behind the scenes, or because he hadn't yet entered the imperial court?
Many guesses flashed through Mu Qingli's mind in an instant, but he didn't express them. After asking, he tilted his head slightly and gave him a warning.
"Don't worry about their health, Qilan will be able to cure them. You can focus on the Autumn Examination first, and then have someone keep an eye on the mice."
"Okay, I understand. It's getting late, so I'll take you back first."
Gu Luoheng understood what she meant, and his dark eyes were filled with a deep coldness.
If Ali hadn't come here, he really wouldn't have thought that someone would be secretly watching their family. He had already cleared out many spies planted by outsiders in the past few years, but it seemed that there were still people hiding deeper!
They were all smart people, so Mu Qingli didn't say anything more and let someone follow her on horseback and escort her back to the mansion.
Mu Fushu had been waiting at the gate of the mansion for her carriage to return. When he saw Gu Luoheng's face darken, he didn't say a word but raised his hand to help his sister get off the carriage.
In fact, the two families have been close and the relationship between the two has been good in recent years, but he feels uncomfortable when he thinks that the big bad wolf outside is about to take his sister away before he can do much to pamper her.
Gu Luoheng looked up at him and knew what he was thinking, but he ignored him, nodded at him, and then spoke to Mu Qingli.
"Ah Li, remember to light some calming incense and have a good rest at night. I'll be leaving first."
Mu Qingli was not surprised to see her brother, so she stood beside him and smiled at Gu Luoheng.
"Got it. Go back now. Good luck in the Autumn Examination. I wish you the best of luck in the imperial examination."
Wait until you win the first prize...and marry me!
The two of them looked at each other and Gu Luoheng understood what she meant. His breathing stopped for a moment and layers of joy spread from his heart. Then he raised the corners of his lips, nodded, and rode away.
His posture is chic and handsome, and he has a rare youthful vigor that makes people unable to take their eyes off him.
In the end, Mu Fushu raised his hand with a dark face to block her view and snorted unhappily.
"You made quite a noise when you went out today. Stop watching and go home for dinner."
Mu Qingli glanced at him teasingly, then looked away with amusement and followed him into the mansion, unable to help but make a joke.
"Why didn't I realize you were jealous of him before? If you find me a sister-in-law in the future, I'll have to imitate you and get jealous a few times, only to be fair."
Come to think of it, she felt that there was someone who seemed quite suitable for her brother.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone down, and Mu Fushu's ears quickly turned red. He then snorted in dissatisfaction.
"You still dare to tease me? Looking at this situation, you might even leave the house before me."
The brother and sister went back home to eat, chatting and laughing, completely ignoring the outside world.
Over there, the hurried talks in the meeting room of Prince An's Mansion finally ended, and everyone hurriedly left after receiving their errands.
Only a man in his forties dressed in blue got into the carriage and left slowly, and went into the restaurant's private room to eat as usual.
A person finished his meal in a private room slowly before leaving. Soon someone came in to clear the dishes on the table and took a note from under the dishes skillfully and naturally.
The note soon fell into the hands of the restaurant owner, but he still cautiously returned to the backyard before opening it and reading it.
The message above is very concise, even only having two words.
【Success】
Shopkeeper Xu stroked his beard contentedly as he looked at the note, then skillfully picked up the lampshade to destroy the note.
The servant who had been following him couldn't help but whisper a reminder, "Should we go tell the master?"
Shopkeeper Xu thought for a moment and shook his head, "No need, it's good news if the master knows there's no news."
As if he had thought of something, he relaxed and raised his chin towards him, "Just go and tell Miss Lan, and don't forget to send the medicinal food to Xiaoli."
People who are born weak are naturally prone to illness and disasters. Apart from using good medicine to keep themselves alive, they can only recuperate slowly. He dare not be careless about the people his master has ordered him to take care of.
The servant smiled, nodded, and quickly left to do his work.
The common people were unaware of the turmoil going on in Beijing, but what happened during the day was enough to arouse all their excitement.
Before and after dinner, no matter which house you strolled past, you could hear heated discussions about this matter in the house, but most of these discussions were done behind the children's backs.
After all, no one wants their children's ears to be dirty with such dirty things.
Even Princess Huining, who lived alone in a mansion, heard the news when she passed by the servants. Her eyebrows slightly raised and her face showed no emotion, but she couldn't help but snort in her heart.
What is this? This princess almost watched the whole scene with excitement.
However, her personal maid Lu Yao, who had always been with her, noticed it and couldn't help but chuckle as soon as she returned to the room.
"Young lady, you seem to be in a good mood today? It seems that Princess Anle is quite likable."
She almost grew up with the princess, so naturally she was closer to her than the other maids. She was very happy that the princess finally had a good friend to interact with.
Lu Zhiyao thought about it and nodded seriously, her tone a little lighter.
"Sister Li is really interesting. I don't know if it's because she's been away recuperating for the past few years, but I always feel like she knows a lot. This chat was really pleasant."
Lu Yao looked at the princess, who was rarely happy, with a smile on her face. "That's great! Who knows, the princess may finally have a friend she can truly connect with? It's been cold these past few days, so why not take Miss Mu to the hot springs at the farm?"
Friendships between girls always progress easily and promote feelings.
It’s no wonder that Lu Zhiyao was really moved. She couldn’t help but look at her, pursing her lips a little embarrassedly.
"But since we've only met for the third time, wouldn't it be a bad idea to just invite her? She seems to really dislike members of the royal family."
