Ever since Gong Yu knew that there was a secret passage in the palace, she paid attention to this matter. That day, Li Gong set up the fake corpse in order to delay the time.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the front foot left the city gate, the troops sent by Dai Ruyan on the back foot would close the gate of the capital city, which can be described as dangerous.

In order to deceive others, Gong Yu put on a daughter's costume, and the female swordsman on one side held a sword in one hand, and drank wine generously with the other hand.

The sound of horseshoes rattling echoed in the valley. Because of the snow, the river froze, and Gong Yu's arrangement to go south by boat from the canal was cancelled.

"I didn't know that you, the little emperor, had such a connection with Jianghu Bodyguard Bureau." The female swordsman looked sideways at Gong Yu and asked.

Gong Yutou was wearing a cloak and responded helplessly: "This is outside, can the female swordsman keep her voice down?"

The female swordsman smiled without saying a word, sipping her wine, looking at the snow-white mountains and plains.

In the past, when Gong Yu was recruiting customers, she also helped many people from the Jianghu, but most of these people from the Jianghu were informal and unwilling to be bound by the court, so Gong Yu did not use them for her own use, but just regarded them as scattered in the palace. country contacts.

But I'm glad I didn't record their list at the beginning, otherwise Dai Ruyan might easily find Gong Yu's whereabouts.

The road in the mountains is difficult, and by the time we arrive at Changzhou, it will be the spring full of March in the coming year.

When the spies searched for the information about the grandma who was acting as Ruyan's courtyard back then, the clues came to Changzhou.

On the way, Gong Yu visited many doctors in order to find a blind medicine, preferably to relieve the insanity, such as madness.

Seeing the officers and soldiers at the city gate of Changzhou strictly checking the people entering and leaving the city gate, Gong Yu looked at the portrait of the female swordsman pasted on the city wall, and couldn't help but feel a headache. Dai Ruyan had already discovered the female swordsman.

The female swordsman at the side couldn't help but ride a horse and turn the corner and said: "I will not enter this Changzhou."

Hey?

Is this gone?

Gong Yu was really envious of this female swordsman's bold behavior.

The escort went into the inn in the city, Gong Yu drank tea and said, "Where is the grandma that Brother Li was looking for now?"

"That grandma is already dying of illness. When we found her, she was no longer breathing. It was just a coincidence that I met another Granny Li. This Granny Li is Dai's grandmother's personal maid."

"Brother Li, please bring her here for questioning, okay?"

"it is good."

At night, a group of people entered an alley, walked to the end, and stepped into a room.

That Granny Li, Gong Yu, also felt familiar when she saw her, and just remembered that when she went to the temple to meet Dai Ruyan, it was this Granny Li who was next to Grandma Ruyan at that time.

Gong Yu is currently dressed as a woman, so she is not afraid of revealing her identity and asks: "I heard that Granny Li has two sons in her family. The older one is smart and sensible, but the younger one is addicted to gambling. It seems that the one was detained by the casino yesterday."

"What do you want to say?" Although Granny Li's eyes were covered by a black cloth, she was not afraid of the loud voice at all, and said disdainfully: "I am a servant of the Dai family, the personal maid of Dai's grandmother, you If you dare to offend the Dai family, you are offending the current empress who is in power!"

This rhetoric is really one set.

"Zhen...that really scares people." Even though Gong Yu changed her words, she said, "I asked if your grandma was sent by Dai's grandmother to monitor Dai's queen?"

Granny Li snorted, "I don't know!"

Gong Yu sat aside and said with a smile, "Come on, let the snake go."

I saw that slender little snake wrapped around Granny Li's neck, spitting out a message.

"You...what do you want to do?"

"This snake is extremely poisonous. One bite will not kill you, but the pain will be unbearable until the pain lasts for seven days and nights. I heard that usually no one can stay in pain for seven days and nights, and the pain is so severe that he bites his tongue and kills himself."

This Granny Li's complexion was pale, and Gong Yu was not in a hurry. She sipped her tea for a while before she said, "I just want to ask a few questions about the queen, and I promise you to leave safely after asking, but if you lie, that's your fault." I can only die here, I hope you think twice before acting."

Granny Li, who had been silent all this time, was so frightened by the snake that her face was covered with cold sweat, she seemed to break down and said, "You ask, I'll tell you!"

Gong Yu held the teacup and said, "Why was Dai Empress locked up in the small attic when she was young?"

Granny Li closed her lips tightly and replied: "Of course it is because the Empress Dowager suffered from insanity. Now everyone in the palace knows it, but they are afraid of severe punishment and dare not mention it."

"Come on, add a snake."

"Yes!"

A small snake wrapped tightly around Granny Li's arm, as if it was about to bite at any moment, Granny Li hurriedly said, "It's true! This old servant saw it with my own eyes!"

Gong Yu looked at Granny Li seriously and said, "Nonsense!"

"Isn't it because Grandmother Dai asked someone to secretly add something to Empress Dai's medicinal soup?"

Granny Li was silent for a while, her whole body was stiff and she didn't dare to move, she asked tremblingly, "How do you know?"

The sound of a sword being unsheathed was very clear in this small room. Gong Yu stood in front of Granny Li holding the sword and said, "Where is the antidote?"

"Really...no." Granny Li replied with a pale complexion: "Empress Dai has been different from ordinary people since she was a child. She is completely Mrs. Qing Ji. The small attic seems to be used to detain pregnant women who are mentally disturbed due to stimulation. Mrs. Qing Ji."

"and after?"

"Later, I don't know when it will become the Empress Dowager and Mrs. Qing Ji locked up in the small attic together."

Gong Yu looked at Granny Li and asked, "Really?"

"Really, the strict blockade of this matter was strange at the time. Even first-class maids like us didn't get any news."

"Then why did you secretly give the empress decoction?"

Granny Li said hesitantly, "I don't know what Dai's grandmother ordered me to do."

"You don't know?" Gong Yu stopped beside Granny Li's neck and asked, "Do you know or not?"

The sharp and icy sword edge frightened Granny Li for a moment, and she burst into tears and said, "Forgive me, I just know what medicine seems to be about some disease, not only the acting queen, but Mrs. Qingji and even the former queen." The empress has also taken it."

"What about the antidote?"

"Only Dai's grandmother, who is also in charge of the affairs of the Dai clan, knows about this matter. I also run errands, so how dare I inquire about it."

If Dai Ruyan was only a little mentally disturbed at first, it would get worse and even become uncontrollable because of the medicinal soup that he had been forced to take for many years.

Is it because Dai Ruyan found something wrong in the decoction, so he wanted the flower of eternal life?

Gong Yu thought hesitantly, then felt something was wrong and asked, "Why did Dai's grandmother do this?"

Grandma Li replied tremblingly: "Since Dai's grandmother came to power, the Dai family has executed many maidservants and servants because it was too strict. Often in the Dai's garden late at night, you can still hear Mrs. Qing Ji being punished, not only It’s the acting empress and even the maids in the garden who were punished together, the medicine seems to be for control.”

"I heard that if the queens of the Dai clan in the past dynasties did not obey the orders of the Dai clan, they almost died suddenly."

"What did you say?" Gong Yu couldn't help being angry and annoyed.

Granny Li was so frightened that she couldn't understand, she said with tears, "I really don't care about my business, even if it's drug delivery, it's Grandma Liu's job!"

Gong Yu stopped aside and said, "Okay then, let me ask you who killed the two maidservants and the black cat who died in the small attic?"

"There was a lot of talk about this matter in the mansion. At that time, apart from Mrs. Qing Ji, only the Empress Dai was at the side. I heard that when the servant broke in, Mrs. Qing Ji was covered in blood and was holding a dagger, and the Empress Dai was holding the dagger in her arms. The black cat seems to have run out of energy." Granny Li couldn't help but said with fear:

"What happened in this generation's family home is even more shocking than what happened in the court. At that time, the news was blocked, and the servants and maids didn't dare to mention it again."

This doesn't seem like a lie, but Gong Yu can only make a vague guess.

When the spring thunder sounded, a heavy rain put the whole Changzhou in a place where floods gathered.

Gong Yu arranged for Granny Li to live well, but did not let her return to the Dai family.

The inn was so busy with people coming and going, Gong Yu sat by the window and looked at the criss-crossing rivers in Changzhou City, and couldn't help thinking if it was Dai's grandmother who was tormenting her.

Mrs. Qing Ji's contemporaries such as Yan, and even the former empress who died for no reason may be the target of abuse.

Unable to go back to the past, Gong Yu naturally could not know the specific truth, but when thinking of Mrs. Qing Ji, she suddenly imagined whether it is possible that after Mrs. Qing Ji was driven crazy, so she changed from the abused to the abuser, And the victim became Dai Ruyan?

Gong Yu often heard Dai Ruyan humming the tune in the Changzhou dialect, but the problem is that Mrs. Qing Ji is from the capital, even if she came to Changzhou to raise a baby later, she shouldn't be so proficient in learning the Changzhou dialect?

So who taught Mrs. Qing Ji this humming tune?

The window sills of the heavy wipers rattled, and the rumble of thunder was astonishingly loud, and the day suddenly turned into night.

When the returned spies handed over the list of ancestral homes of the Dai clan to Gong Yu, Gong Yu realized that what Granny Li said might be true.

Dai's grandmother is a native of Changzhou, and the meaning of the words humming the ditty is the swearing words born from the dissatisfaction and resentment of the new bride when she is bullied by her husband and in-laws.

So Mrs. Qing Ji was driven crazy, and Dai Ruyan, who had witnessed all this since she was a child, should also understand.

Or Dai Ruyan, who has been extremely intelligent since she was a child, understood the reason for her mother's abnormality early on.

But in such a cruel Dai Yuan, Dai Ruyan was also forced to split into different personalities to protect herself.

When the thunderstorm stopped, the sky outside the window was astonishingly blank, the pigeons landed by the window, and Gong Yu reached for the creed in the letter box.

[Dai's grandmother was seriously ill, and the empress Dai went to Changzhou for two days. 】

I'm afraid this place won't last long.

In the early morning of the next day, Gong Yu left Changzhou with all the escorts in a cloak.

After two months, Gong Yu searched all the medical books and ancient books in the palace, but saw some references to Qinglingcao, but she never found this herb.

In midsummer, the deep mountains and old forests were extremely hot, Gong Yu tied her hair into a ball, dressed like a Taoist nun, rolled up her sleeves and supported a bamboo raft while driving in the gentle stream.

Passing by a pier, when I went ashore to eat noodles, I heard several fishermen discussing: "I heard that the old ancestor of the Dai family is gone."

"The big families in the capital will die better than us mountain village folks."

"After hearing that the ancestor of the Dai family was gone, the Empress Dai immediately ordered the prime minister to return to Changzhou to observe filial piety for three years. This prime minister is the queen's biological father."

"That's right, since my own father has been kicked out, I'm afraid the acting queen is planning to usurp the throne."

"I think it is true. The emperor of Gongguo has never been to the court since he was sick. He must have been controlled by the acting empress."

Gong Yu drank the hot soup without making a sound, and the shed suddenly rang with the sound of rain, which barely brought a bit of coolness.

Brother Li on the side looked thin and weak, but actually had a surprisingly large appetite. The two of them ate noodle soup for six people.

In order to deceive others, Gong Yu did not tell Brother Li that he was the Emperor of the Palace Kingdom, but only said that the Emperor of the Palace Kingdom was here to deliver the task.

When there were few people in the shed, Gong Yu lowered his cloak and saw the arresters, Brother Li subconsciously held the knife.

I saw those arresters looking around with some drawing paper in their hands, but they didn't ask any questions, they just walked past the two of them.

Only then did Brother Li let go of his hand and sighed: "Now that we have found all these deep mountains and old forests, what did Miss Ayu cause in the capital?"

Gong Yu sipped the water and responded: "Brother Li thinks highly of me, I just came here to find medicine for His Majesty."

Just when Gong Yu felt that the mountain was about to be searched, she suddenly found a herb suspected of Qingling grass in the depths of a hidden mountain forest.

It's just that on the deep shore, Gong Yu and Brother Li were divided into two groups, so they had to tie a rope to find out.

When she slowly moved to the shore, Gong Yu felt her heart stopped, and she couldn't help saying: "Don't be afraid."

The stream gurgled under the cliff, and the sound of the water echoed in the valley. Because of the inconvenience of women's skirts, Gong Yu changed the clothes to be light and easy to walk.

But it was still entangled by many vines, and when it was finally possible to get a closer look, it suddenly heard a commotion.

For a moment, Gong Yu felt that she was hallucinating, and there was nothing extraordinary in this deep mountain and old forest.

After picking the Qingling grass, the rope suddenly tilted to one side, Gong Yu's eyes widened, and she was completely shocked.

How could this be a Jinzhou poisonous person!

It is rare to be as unlucky as Gong Yu, the only lucky Gong Yu is still dressed as a woman, at least the old general Ji with the beard has never seen it.

It's just that when the jade pendant he was carrying was turned out, Gong Yu really panicked and sweated profusely.

"Where did you get this jade pendant?" General Ji looked at Gong Yu with a murderous look.

"I...a few days ago...picked up herbs."

"Stuttering?" The middle-aged soldier on the side came forward and said, "General, this woman must not be kept, otherwise the whereabouts will be obtained by the vicious empress."

Old General Ji asked with killing intent in his eyes: "This jade pendant is a pair unique to the empress. I heard that only the emperor has another jade pendant. I will ask you again, who are you?"

It's over, do you want to hang here?

Gong Yu responded with a smile: "That... person... don't want it, I'll just... pick it up."

The poisonous man who looked like an orangutan was looking at the palace jade, and the old general Ji looked at the jade pendant in his hand and said: "Didn't there be news in the capital that the emperor was not in the palace a few days ago, and the little emperor must have come to this desolate place." land."

"What is the general going to do?"

"The little emperor is gone, the empress of that generation should have been looking for it all the time, and sent people to quickly search the mountains and forests."

"Yes!"

The poisonous people scattered all around, as for a few guards standing by, Gong Yu was restrained and landed on a tree trunk.

I saw the old general Ji holding the jade pendant and said: "Come here, prepare your pen and ink."

This is to threaten Dai Ruyan.

As night fell, the group of people did not dare to light a fire, and the mosquito bites were so painful that Gong Yu couldn't catch them.

When it was late at night, Gong Yu slightly held the thin blade hidden in her sleeve with her fingertips, and carefully cut the rope.

Unexpectedly, a person came out from behind, it was too dark and Gongyu couldn't look at him, the person said in a low voice: "Is it Miss Ayu?"

Gong Yu nodded hurriedly, it turned out that this person was Brother Li.

The two escaped from the cave in a hurry, but the poisonous people were still alarmed, and they separated on the way to escape.

It was too dark everywhere, Gong Yu couldn't tell where she was for a while, she slipped and fell into the stream.

For fear of destroying the clear water chestnut grass, Gong Yu bent over to protect the glass bottle as much as possible.

When the sky was getting brighter, Gong Yu slowly lay down on a bank, and the Qingling grass in the glass bottle was still intact.

As soon as the sun got a little bigger, the clothes were dried a lot, but the leg that was broken by falling off the horse seemed to be hurting again.

Gong Yu didn't dare to be careless, so she made a walking stick and walked slowly along the stream, passing a thatched cottage.

I was already so hungry that I had no choice but to knock on the door. An old man inside opened the door and said, "How can there be a weak woman in the barren mountains?"

"While going up the mountain to collect herbs, I accidentally slipped from the mountain and fell into the stream."

Talking back and forth, Gong Yu got a bowl of hot porridge and drank it in embarrassment, only to see the old man saw the glass bottle that Gong Yu put beside his hand and said: "This herb grows on the high cliff, you weak woman How can you be so bold?"

Gong Yu swallowed the porridge, thought for a while and responded, "Someone in my family is sick."

"Hey, the world is hard. If you are a weak woman who ran into this barren mountain, the family should be worried."

"Well, I'll be back as soon as possible."

"Does the old man know this Qingling grass?" Gong Yu asked while holding the porridge bowl.

The old man leaned on a cane and sat by the door and said: "This grass is called insomnia grass here. Once upon a time, the eldest son of a rich merchant was violent and often injured servants. He even held a sword at night. The merchant was so scared that he had to use an iron chain I tied up my eldest son and searched for famous doctors, and then I settled down a lot with a little Faint God Grass, but this herb is rare, and it grows on the cliffs, so it is difficult to pick."

Gong Yu looked at the glass bottle in his hand, and brought some soil to protect the rhizome.

The words stopped, and there was light rain again outside. The sun was still shining, but it was raining again.

The old man looked out of the door and said: "The remote mountain has not been peaceful these days, there are usually a lot of birds singing, this will be lifeless."

After a bowl of porridge was eaten, even though she was barely half full, Gong Yu drank the tea because all the money was looted, so she took off a hairpin from the top of her head and put it on the wooden table. How long does it take to walk around town?"

"About a day."

"However, it has been raining and the road is slippery in recent days. I'm afraid it will take some time."

Gong Yu thanked, "Thank you, old man, for giving me the porridge."

The old man smiled amiably and said: "It's okay, I haven't seen anyone for a long time as an old man."

Just when Gong Yu was about to walk on crutches, she found that she couldn't use her strength.

I had to sit down again, and the old man in front of me slowly approached with a cane. There was a very obvious scar on the raised wrist, which was obviously like the imprint left by struggling chains.

"The old man...wouldn't be the eldest son?" Gong Yu really felt that his luck was so bad that he couldn't save it.

The old man smiled, the wrinkles on his face were huddled together, he sat aside and sighed: "Although the medicinal effect of this fainting herb is amazing, it is still because it is too rare. I heard that I killed all the people in the mansion with a sword, and I don't know where I fled."

"Little girl, if someone in your family also suffers from the disease of the rich businessman's eldest son, I'm afraid there is no cure for it."

Gong Yu held the sword in his hand and said: "I have no grievances with the old man, why do you want to hurt me like this?"

"Harmful?" The old man shook his head and said, "It's very quiet in this mountain forest. If you go back, you little girl may be dragged down. Why don't you stay with my old man."

Seeing that there was a dead bone inside the unclosed side door on that side, Gong Yu was stunned.

The old man looked at Gong Yuwang and said with a smile, "That's my old lady. She has been sick all year round, so I didn't let her out."

Due to her weakness, Gong Yu had no choice but to lean on the armchair and said, "Do you know why the eldest son became insane?"

"Who knows, maybe this disease is only suffered by wealthy families."

The old man smiled and poured his tea and took a sip. He looked at Gong Yu in a good mood, but his cloudy eyes were filled with a strange smile. The harsh treatment of the rich merchants, I heard that he was punished with sticks when he was young because he didn’t learn the poems taught by the master, and he was even locked up in the ancestral hall all night, maybe this is the reason for his violent temperament.”

Gong Yu didn't know what expression to use to face the old man in front of him.

This is because he never realized the danger of himself?

With a little strength left, Gong Yu pressed the mist between her wrists between her fingers, and the old man sighed unknowingly: "Hey, the world is impermanent, and it is safer in this deep mountain."

When the old man in front of him seemed to be in a coma, Gong Yu barely propped up his crutches and picked up the glass bottle beside him.

When he was about to leave, he hesitated to open the door, and saw that the skeleton was dressed like a married woman's robe, and he couldn't help thinking that maybe this woman was a concubine of a wealthy businessman.

Gong Yu rushed down the mountain non-stop, and only managed to reach the town when it was dark.

The money on her body had been searched long ago, so the innkeeper unceremoniously kicked out Gong Yu, and had no choice but to stay in the inn.

It will be midsummer, and the night is still cool, Gong Yu had to rest in the corner of the alley, when a large number of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared on the street, rushing straight to the mountain.

The beggars on the side looked around one after another, discussing in detail: "Is this someone sent by the court?"

"That's right, I heard that there is some treasure hidden in this deep mountain. In a few days, even the acting queen will come in person."

"That must be for the longevity medicine."

The drowsy Gong Yu didn't have time to listen carefully, and when she slept until dawn, she felt very uncomfortable.

Very hungry, Gong Yu was walking along the street under the eaves on crutches, a group of soldiers and horses passed by, and the leader of the soldiers turned out to be Gu Qing.

Gong Yu hurriedly lowered her head and found a pawn shop to pawn the clothes on her body for some money, then bought ointment and pasted it on her knees.

When rushing to a town again, she finally met the person who connected her, and Gong Yu was able to have a full meal.

Brother Li was seriously injured and happened to be brought back, and Gong Yu was taken care of by others.

Cultivating Qing Lingcao in a potted plant, Gong Yu is still dressed as a Taoist nun, wearing a bamboo hat and preparing to return to the capital.

Mrs. Qing Ji heard that Dai Ruyan sent her from the capital to Changzhou to recuperate her spirits. If the Qing Lingcao is effective, it should also be useful to Mrs. Qing Ji.

Gong Yu originally wanted to take a boat, but the official road was strictly investigated. Just in case, she had to ride a horse and walk the mountain road.

When passing the gazebo, Gong Yu and his group went into the pavilion to eat noodle soup, just in time to feed some fodder for the horses.

"A few days ago, the Jinzhou traitor who hid in the deep mountains was beheaded on the spot by the acting queen."

"My uncle was at the foot of the mountain and said that the blood in the stream was turning red."

"That's right, the acting empress has left the capital in person, so naturally she wants to kill the weeds."

"But this generation of queens is really amazing. I heard that this time it was specially for one person."

"Hey, didn't you come here because you were looking for longevity medicine?"

Everyone talked non-stop, but there was no unified statement. Gong Yu looked at the scorching sun outside while eating a vegetarian steamed stuffed bun.

Can't help but think that Dai Ruyan probably received the jade pendant.

Gong Yu looked at the ring in his palm, and couldn't help saying angrily: "It's over, it was hard to coax the jade pendant back then."

This changed hands and returned to Dai Ruyan's hands, I'm afraid it will not be easy to get it back.

Just when Gong Yu wanted to rush to Changzhou non-stop, Gong Guo suddenly mutinied.

Gong Liang led the troops to surround Dai Ruyan's troops. Because of leaving the capital, Dai Ruyan's soldiers and horses were not abundant.

When Gong Yu heard the news, Gong Yu was still a little overwhelmed, where did Gong Liang get the soldiers?

He wanted to go to Changzhou, and he was worried that Dai Ruyan would be in danger. Gong Yu, who was in a dilemma, had to grind part of the Qinglingcao he had developed into a elixir with him, while the cultivated Qinglingcao was temporarily handed over to the security guards for safekeeping. .

The emperor's edict was required to dispatch troops from prefectures and counties. Although Dai Ruyan had already controlled the capital, he could not let all prefectures and counties directly obey the orders.

Especially when Gong Liang released the news that Gong Yu was dead, there was a legitimate reason to rebel.

All along, the more powerful Dai Ruyan was, the more exaggerated those rumors were, and the accusations of murdering the emperor and plotting to usurp the throne came one after another.

Without the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, Gong Yu couldn't issue an edict, so he could only gather as many people as possible under his command to rush to the besieged place.

The sound of artillery fire rumbled, and the firelight was extraordinarily dazzling in the dark night.

The river blocked the journey of the people and horses, and Gong Yu couldn't help but feel more and more worried when he saw the flames of war ignited there.

"Your Majesty, Gong Liang's troops have completely surrounded the Dai Empress's troops."

Gong Yu held the reins and looked at the fast-flowing river, turned her head solemnly and said: "Set up artillery fire.

"This distance is really dangerous."

"no solution anymore."

Since the Jinzhou Poison Rebellion, Gong Yu has set up firearm camps in various states and counties.

Although they cannot be mobilized without orders, these quacks are still capable of stealing.

After the artillery fire aimed at the Gongliang barracks and bombarded them, they made the soldiers flee in disorder.

Faced with the enemy, no matter how good the army is, it cannot withstand two rounds of firearms attacks, not to mention that Dai Ruyan also has a cavalry with excellent firearms.

When the flames of war receded, the sky was already bright, and Gong Yu looked at the battle situation there with a telescope.

Across the wide river, Dai Ruyan was on the opposite bank, and the troops of the two sides were within the range of the opponent's artillery fire.

Gong Yu turned around holding the rein and said, "Today, I will trouble all the heroes to help you."

Although she knew that it would be impossible for Dai Ruyan to jump across the river for a while, Gong Yu let the people in the rivers and lakes disperse early, and rode to Changzhou by herself.

They sent people to detain Mrs. Qingji alone in a suburban house in Changzhou, and Gong Yu got off her horse and entered the house.

I saw Mrs. Qing Ji sitting by the window with a dull expression, the doctor at the side shook his head and approached: "This lady is restless, her symptoms are really abnormal."

"Then the Qing Lingcao is useful?"

"The old man dosed the medicine properly, and it seems that there is no other effect, except that the madam sleeps a little longer, there is nothing else."

Gong Yu was a little discouraged, for the madness, after searching through ancient books, he could only find this Qing Lingcao as a reliever medicine.

After all, this Lingcao is just like a sedative, it can only relieve a little when the mood is out of control, but it can't completely cure it.

When the old doctor left, Gong Yu approached and called softly: "Madam Qingji?"

"What's the matter?"

"Do you know who I am?"

Madam Qing Ji had nothing but indifference in her eyes, she just responded: "Who are you?"

Now that Gong Yu is dressed as a woman, she also knows that Mrs. Qing Ji may not recognize her.

"Madam Qingji knows Ayu?"

The person who claimed to be Dai Ruyan's sister personality said that her name was Ayu. If the sister personality was in the attic instead of Ayan, would Mrs. Qingji know the existence of the sister personality at that time?

"Ayu?" Mrs. Qing Ji looked at Gongyu and asked, "Do you know Ayu?"

Gong Yu couldn't help being taken aback, and sat aside and nodded in response: "Well, she is a very cute girl."

Mrs. Qing Ji's eyes flashed a smile, as if she was a mother at this moment, she whispered: "Yes, Ayu is very obedient."

"Then where did she go?"

"Where did you go?" Mrs. Qing Ji showed confusion, and then said with sadness, "She's gone."

Gong Yu straightened her back, watched Madam Qingji's words and deeds and asked, "Why did she disappear?"

Madam Qingji shook her head in pain, stretched out her hand and pushed the teacup in front of her to the ground, crying, "Damn you, little lady of Changzhou!"

"Who are you talking about?"

"I'm going to kill you!"

As if falling into a dream, Mrs. Qing Ji never responded to Gong Yu's words.

Gong Yu had no choice but to put the Qingling herb pills into the smoker, but after a while Mrs. Qingji calmed down, but her eyes returned to the dull and lifeless eyes just now.

Who is that resentment said to?

Dai's grandmother who has died?Or the former concubine of her husband?

No matter what, Gong Yu confirmed that Mrs. Qing Ji was really driven crazy. Unlike Dai Ruyan who could fight back step by step, she was directly trapped in this nightmare and could not extricate herself, willing to become a marionette.

During these half a month, Gong Yu only heard Mrs. Qing discussing the same things intermittently every day, the only difference was the change in usage of Qinglingcao.

When the contemporary Ruyan people surrounded the mansion in the outskirts of the city, Gong Yu was still surprised that she would find it so quickly.

Gong Yu asked Mrs. Qing Ji to be sent out of the mansion through the secret passage, while she stepped up into the small attic.

The layout of this small attic should be similar to the small attics of ordinary old houses in Changzhou, and Gong Yu specially sent someone to compare it.

At sunset, Dai Ruyan's men broke into the mansion, and Gong Yu saw the densely packed eaves through the window. It must be very beautiful when it snows.

Footsteps came from the stairs, approaching step by step, Gong Yu lay on the low couch and counted the steps.

Until the small half door was pushed open, the old wooden door made the sound of branches.

After taking the medicine, the heartbeat will gradually slow down, and even enter a state of suspended animation, but Gong Yu's sense of hearing and touch will be extremely sharp.

"Xiao Jiu?" Dai Ruyan called softly while sitting on the side.

The hand that was on the cheek was a bit hot, it was already scorching hot outside, not to mention that Dai Ruyan stayed outside for a whole night.

The attic suddenly became quiet, and the quiet Gong Yu was even a little at a loss.

Dai Ruyan lowered his head and rubbed Gong Yu's cheek, and whispered to Gong Yu's cheek with slightly cool lips: "Don't scare me anymore."

"You can take the risk to save me, why don't you want to open it and look at me?"

The tears falling on her cheeks were a little hot, and Gong Yu could even smell Dai Ruyan's faint fragrance.

The amount of Qinglingcao burning in the smoker on the side is a bit too much. Although Gong Yu has taken the medicine, she still feels a little dizzy

But Dai Ruyan beside him still didn't respond at all, and lightly touched Gong Yu's slightly pale lips.

"Why don't you wake up?" Dai Ruyan held Gong Yu's cheeks with both hands and said, "As long as you wake up, we can start over."

"I'm ready to recruit as many musicians as you want. If you want to rebuild the stage, you can do it. I will never stop you."

Words that don't get a response are like stones falling into a hole in the ice.

Only then did Dai Ruyan call out as if erupting, "Xiao Jiu!"

I don't remember how long it has been, Gong Yu couldn't hear any voice from Dai Ruyan, it seemed that the medicinal effect of Lingcao finally had some effect.

Gong Yu got up with a heavy head, but Dai Ruyan was not beside the bed, and fell lifelessly in the corner.

The wooden boards of the small attic were being stepped on slightly, and Gong Yu slowly approached, only to see Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with empty eyes and smiled but said nothing.

It is recorded in ancient books that when people are strongly stimulated, they sometimes choose to forget the painful memories, and Qing Lingcao numbs the pain and makes people slowly fall into sedation.

Dai Ruyan looked at Gong Yu with deep eyes, stretched his arms and grabbed Gong Yu's robe.

Gong Yu hesitantly stretched out his hand to embrace Dai Ruyan and said in a low voice, "Do you... remember who I am?"

Did not get an answer from Dai Ruyan, because Dai Ruyan finally fell into a coma under the influence of the Qinglingcao.

In the early autumn, Gong Yu's contemporary Ruyan returned to the palace, and the government continued as usual, except that Gong Yu strictly pursued Gong Liang's rebels.

When the maple forest was in full bloom, Gong Yu was reviewing the memorials in the pavilion, and asked someone to build a swing in one place, and Dai Ruyan often played by herself.

When the cool breeze came, large maple leaves fell, and Gong Yu was writing to review the memorial, while Dai Ruyan scattered the large maple leaves on the stone table full of memorials.

"Does it look good?" Dai Ruyan smiled and asked Gong Yu.

Gong Yu was stunned and said: "Well, it looks good."

Dai Ruyan tidied up the maple leaves one by one and said, "Will Xiao Jiu like it?"

"She'll love it."

"Last time, Xiao Jiu asked me to watch Maple Leaf with her, but then she got angry..."

"Why is she angry?"

Gong Yu helped tidy up Maple Leaf and said hesitantly, "You were also very...happy afterward?"

Most of the time, Dai Ruyan regards Gong Yu as someone else, but it seems that there is no specific person, more like a fictional object to tell.

At dinner in the evening, Gong Yu took the soup, Dai Ruyan stretched out his hand to take a sip of the soup, frowned and said, "Why not fish soup?"

"Don't you like rib soup?"

"No, I only like fish soup."

Gong Yu ignored her, drank the soup and said, "There is no fish soup today, if you don't drink it, you can sleep alone."

Before the words finished, Dai Ruyan gulped down the soup, looked at Gong Yu with sly eyes and said, "I don't want to sleep alone."

"Then you'll be obedient."

Dai Ruyan put down the soup bowl, said with a depressed expression, "I miss Xiao Jiu."

"Xiao Jiu, does she like someone else outside?"

Gong Yu stopped holding the meat, then hesitantly fed Dai Ruyan a fried dumpling and replied: "It's nothing."

"Really?" Dai Ruyan blinked and asked.

"Really, Ayan is so cute, Xiaojiu will always like you."

Dai Ruyan's eyes were full of smiles, but for some reason it darkened again, and his cheeks looked a little soft because of the fried dumplings that hadn't been swallowed yet.

"What's wrong?" Gong Yu hurriedly asked.

"But I can't find Xiao Jiu."

"Maybe she played hide and seek with you?"

"Really?" Dai Ruyan said and wanted to get up, Gong Yu hurriedly held Dai Ruyan's hand and said, "You can go find it after you finish your meal."

Dai Ruyan sat down obediently, looked at the hand tightly held by Gong Yu, slightly pursed her lips and said seriously: "You can't hold my hand, Xiao Jiu will be angry."

Hey?

Gong Yu reluctantly let go, picked up the chopsticks and said, "Then you eat in peace."

"Ah."

When it was getting dark outside the pavilion, the palace lanterns lit up one by one, and the lights reflected in the pool water looked very hazy.

But at night, Dai Ruyan was very afraid of the dark, and hardly dared to leave Gongyu.

The hall was brightly lit, Gong Yu had to wear a self-made blindfold to fall asleep, but Dai Ruyan beside him was completely sleepless, and stretched out his hand to pull Gong Yu's blindfold and asked, "Why don't I have one?"

"You don't need this."

"I'm going to use this."

Gong Yu turned her head to look at the serious representatives.
