Contract Prince

Chapter 36 Gathering

After passing through a dense bamboo forest, everyone came to a small courtyard with a quiet bamboo building.Surrounded by flowers and gurgling water, a sense of serenity and tranquility pervades the surroundings.

Shangguan Lan invited everyone into the small courtyard of the bamboo building, and then asked his disciples to make a cup of tea for everyone.The tea in Wangyou Valley is extremely precious, and it is very effective in eliminating fatigue and calming the mind.After everyone took a few sips, the feeling of busyness and toil on the journey was gone, replaced by a feeling of refreshment.

The small courtyard of the bamboo building is divided into inner and outer rooms, and the attendants brought by Gu Yunjing were arranged to rest in the outer room.The rest of the more important people were led directly to the inner room by Shangguan Lan.

Gu Yunjing and Xiao Muxue sat side by side, she was holding a teacup, and she closed her eyes slightly, as if she was about to be immersed in the fragrance of tea.But thinking that there was something important to ask Master, she put down the cup in her hand, looked at Shangguan Lan and said respectfully: "Master, Yun Jing came to Wangyou Valley to ask something."

Shangguan Lan pretended to be slightly annoyed on his old-fashioned face, and snorted softly: "Your Majesty really does not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

"You traveled thousands of miles from the imperial capital to Wangyou Valley, so you didn't intend to visit Master and Mistress. I refused to answer the question you wanted to ask today, whether I knew it or not. Your Master, I am in a fit of anger."

Shangguan Lan was looking forward to Gu Yunjing's return, almost feeling sick.He thought that the apprentice returned to the valley because he missed his master, but he didn't expect Gu Yunjing to speak for other things.He turned his head away, deliberately not looking at Gu Yunjing.

Gu Yunjing knew the personality of her master, and Shangguan Lan looked like a hermit with a fairy spirit, and was polite to outsiders.But in fact, his temper is the same as that of a child, and he behaves like this to the closer people.

Gu Yunjing got up, refilled a cup of tea, handed it to Shangguanlan, and said flatteringly: "Master, I blame my apprentice for making you angry. Don't be so angry, drink a cup of tea to calm down. My son made a mistake, after the master's anger subsides, he will be punished."

Seeing that Shangguan Lan was indifferent, Shangguan Xiruo tugged at his father's cuff and persuaded him, "Father, Brother Yunjing knew he was wrong and already served you tea. Why are you still angry?"

Shangguan Xiruo continued in a coquettish tone: "If you are still angry, then I will be angry too. From then on, I will never talk to you, Daddy."

Shangguan Lan regards Shangguan Xiruo as his darling, and when he hears that his daughter is ignoring him, he quickly turns around and jokes with Shangguan Xiruo: "Father is not angry, he is just joking with your elder brother Yunjing."

After finishing speaking, he immediately took the tea in Gu Yunjing's hand and drank it all in one gulp, then showed the empty teacup to Shangguan Xiruo, and said with a smile: "Look at it, Dad is not angry anymore."

Shangguan Xiruo stuck out her tongue at Shangguanlan, then leaned her head to Gu Yunjing's side, and said, "Brother Yunjing, if you have any questions, just ask daddy."

While Shangguan Lan was laughing, she also secretly sighed in her heart: This is really a female university.Seeing his daughter helping Gu Yunjing as usual, Shangguan Lan became faintly worried again.

After all, Gu Yunjing's current status is different from that of the past. She is not only the eldest son of Marquis Zhenyuan, but also the husband-in-law of the sixth princess.

what.

If Shangguan Xiruo and Gu Yunjing were still as close as before, Xiao Muxue might be dissatisfied.

Shangguan Lan and his wife Yu Qingyou have been in love for decades, and they have been together since they were young.With his experience in love, Shangguan Lan could feel from Xiao Muxue's eyebrows that she cares about Gu Yunjing from time to time.

If this continues, Shangguan Xiruo might really become a love rival with the sixth princess.He looked at Gu Yunjing, then at Xiao Muxue, then at Shangguan Xiruo.Thinking of his daughter's happiness, his heart was suddenly tugged.

However, Shangguan Lan was a man of understanding after all, so he soon figured it out, leaving young people's affairs to themselves.

Shangguan Lan said to Gu Yunjing: "For Xi Ruo's sake, I will forgive you this time. If you have any questions, please ask." He thought of Yu Qingyou's eagerness to miss Gu Yunjing, and asked: "If you have time Come back and see my mistress, since you left, she has missed you very much, and she always misses you in front of me from time to time."

Yu Qingyou treats Gu Yunjing as her own. During the years that Gu Yunjing stayed in Wangyou Valley, Yu Qingyou would personally cook her favorite dishes for three meals a day.As a result, all the brothers and sisters often complained in front of Gu Yunjing, and the teacher's wife's heart was lost.

Thinking of Mistress, Gu Yunjing's nose suddenly became sour, and she said with emotion: "Yes. Now my body is much stronger than before, and I can bear it even if I travel all the way. I will definitely come back to visit Master and Mistress in the future."

Shangguan Lan nodded and said, "If your wife hears this, she will be very happy."

Said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be here, and just as Shangguan Lan finished speaking, Yu Qingyou appeared in front of everyone.A slender woman was wearing an elegant blue-purple dress. Although she was over 40 years old, the years had not left traces on her face. She still looked graceful, noble and elegant.

When Yu Qingyou saw Gu Yunjing, her eyebrows lit up.He hurriedly walked up to her, pulled Gu Yunjing around in front of him several times, and said in a loving tone like a mother: "I'm taller, the complexion on my face is much better than before."

In Yu Qingyou's eyes, Gu Yunjing is her half daughter, she said kindly: "Yun Jing, you finally came back to visit us. Teacher is very happy to see you today."

Shangguan Xiruo leaned in front of Yu Qingyou, and said in a pretty voice: "Mother, you only have Yun Jing in your eyes, apart from her, you can't even take the place of your daughter."

Yu Qingyou lightly stroked Shangguan Xiruo's beautiful hair, and said softly: "Silly girl, why do you even eat Yun Jing's jealousy? You hang around in front of mother every day, and you think mother hasn't seen enough of you."

"Yunjing just came back today, why, mother, you're jealous if you look at her more?" Yu Qingyou said, gently scratching the bridge of Shangguan Xiruo's nose with her fingers.

Shangguan Xiruo waved his hands and said with a smile: "No, my mother and I are here to joke. Knowing that you are eager to see Yun Jing, you will have enough to watch."

Yu Qingyou looked left at her daughter, then at Gu Yunjing, the corners of her eyes and brows were full of joy.

The warm scene of their family gathering together is really enviable.Xiao Muxue pinched the cup, at this moment she felt as if she was an outsider.Gu Yunjing and Shangguan Xiruo seemed like a match made in heaven.

Xiao Muxue's face was sullen, she drank her tea with her head down, her eyes drooping and she remained silent.Since she was an outsider, no matter what she said at this moment, it seemed superfluous.The more Xiao Muxue thought about it, the more panicked her heart became.

Gu Yunjing glanced at Xiao Muxue, seeing the displeasure on the sixth princess's face, she probably guessed something.Gu Yunjing immediately stopped smiling, quickly pointed to Xiao Muxue and Yu Qingyou and introduced: "Master, this is the sixth princess of Xiao Kingdom, Xiao Muxue. She is also my wife."

When hearing the last sentence, Yu Qingyou looked at Gu Yunjing with a puzzled expression.Shangguan Lan looked at his wife's expression, pulled her aside, leaned over and whispered something in her ear.

After hearing this, Yu Qingyou felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.Now that Gu Yunjing is married, what should her daughter do?Shangguan Xiruo had a deep affection for Gu Yunjing, as a mother, Yu Qingyou couldn't help but sigh for her daughter in her heart.

After all, she is a kind-hearted person, knowing that she must not lose courtesy in front of the princess, so Yu Qingyou bowed respectfully and said: "Minister Yu Qingyou sees Your Highness the Princess."

Xiao Muxue was indeed displeased to see their family happy.But now that Yu Qingyou saluted her, she felt that she didn't dare to do so.

Yu Qingyou is as famous as Shangguan Lan, and is the most famous doctor in Xiao Country.Xiao Muxue is just a junior, apart from her inborn princess status, she really can't afford Yu Qingyou's great gift.

She immediately put down her teacup, walked up to the elegant woman, and said, "Senior Yu, you are welcome, you are the concubine's mistress, and naturally you are also Mu Xue's mistress."

Gu Yunjing said from the side: "Master, Your Royal Highness is right. You don't need to salute when you meet the princess in the future. It's a blessing." After she finished speaking, she supported Yu Qingyou and sat next to Shangguan Lan.

After a long delay, Gu Yunjing's topic returned to the purpose of coming to Wangyou Valley. She looked solemn and said, "Master and wife, this disciple has encountered a trouble, and I need you to answer it."

Looking at Gu Yunjing's heavy appearance, Yu Qingyou knew that she was in serious trouble, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Yunjing told Shangguanlan and his wife about Tao Ce's behavior after drinking at the banquet.Afraid of missing important details, she also shared her reaction after drinking.

"Master and wife, do you know what kind of medicine was given to the wine?" Gu Yunjing expressed her doubts, "I initially guessed that it was an aphrodisiac, but after thinking about it carefully, I found it wrong. If it is an aphrodisiac Medicine, shouldn’t Tao Ce have problems only after taking it?”

"Yun Jing is short-sighted and can't figure out why. This matter cheered Tao Ce's life. Therefore, the disciples rushed to Wangyou Valley without stopping to ask the two elders for help."

After listening, Shangguanlan and his wife pondered for a long time, and then looked at each other deeply.Shangguan Lan said slowly: "I still can't think of a clue for the time being. In the past few days, I need to look through the ancient medical books in the valley to make a judgment on this."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Shangguan Xiruo's mind flashed, and she said thoughtfully: "I seem to have seen this kind of record in Dad's medical books and secrets. This medicine is indeed an aphrodisiac. It seems... □. Heart. Move."

"After people take it, they will have hallucinations and regard strangers as the person they like. It has an aphrodisiac effect, but it is different from ordinary aphrodisiacs."

Gu Yunjing asked: "Oh, is there a difference?"

After all, Shangguan Xiruo is a young girl in her twenties and eight years, and she forgot her scruples while talking.Shangguan Lan's face changed, and he quickly stopped him: "Xi Ruo, you are a child who has never read a few medical books, so don't speak nonsense."

Just as Shangguan Xiruo was about to defend herself, Yu Qingyou quickly walked up to her daughter and winked at her.Shangguan Xiruo understood immediately, and put on a playful smile: "Actually, I was teasing you just now. I just wanted to impress my parents. I didn't expect my father to see through the little trick so quickly."

Shangguan Lan instructed: "Next time, don't speak nonsense."
