The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 366: Jiaojiao makes a move (Part 2)

Gu Jiao is a person who was abandoned in a corner by her biological parents. In her perception, no relationship is solid, and trust between people does not come from the relationship itself.

Her world is very simple, black and white, and all the solidity comes from mutual love and inner strength.

But she also understands that not everyone is like her, and maybe even most people are different from her.

They have their own criteria for judging, mixed with the complexity and trade-offs of human nature.

Gu Jiao frowned.

Eunuch Qin was keenly aware of her little expression, and couldn't help asking: "Miss Gu, what's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable?"

"No." Gu Jiao shook her head, "This question is beyond the outline, I can't answer it."

Eunuch Qin: "..."

However, even if she couldn't answer, it didn't affect her further plans.

Not everything in this world requires an explanation. Take the treatment of diseases as an example. If a patient catches a cold, even if she doesn't know how he contracted it, she can still cure him.

The same goes for Concubine Jing.

No matter what the reason behind her drugging the emperor was, Gu Jiao would never allow her to succeed again.

She shouldn't just buy one medicine when she buys it, she flips it so neatly, it can be seen that she has a second hand.

Gu Jiao went to the study to say goodbye to her aunt, and then left the palace.

She didn't deliberately conceal her whereabouts, so that the emperor got the news very quickly. The emperor thought that she had entered the palace to treat his illness, and waited for a long while full of expectations, but in the end he waited for the news that she had left the palace.

The emperor's face turned green.

Eunuch Wei came back from the nunnery and came to the dragon couch to report to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has seen the empress dowager, and it is still an old problem. There is nothing serious, just rest."

The emperor was not satisfied with the reply: "My concubine's hands are all burned, are you all right?"

Eunuch Wei said: "No injury, just a little redness, the imperial doctor has already prescribed medicine, and it will be cured in a few days."

The emperor said in a deep voice, "I'm still worried." As he spoke, he was about to throw off the quilt and get out of bed.

Eunuch Wei hurriedly stopped him: "Your Majesty! What are you doing!"

The emperor said: "I'm going to see my concubine. My concubine must be sad because she was wronged in Huaqing Palace today. If I don't show up again, there will be rumors in the palace that I don't value her anymore."

Eunuch Wei has been in the palace for many years, how can he not understand this truth?

But the emperor's body is still empty,

The imperial doctor told him to rest well.

Eunuch Wei said earnestly: "Your Majesty, your top priority is to take care of the dragon's body. The Empress Dowager must be able to sympathize with you. As for those palace people, the Empress Dowager is your mother and concubine. Who would dare to show her face?"

Except the one from Renshou Palace.

Eunuch Wei added in his heart.

He went on to say: "If you are really worried, the servant will go a few more times for you."

Eunuch Wei is the emperor's confidant, and his appearance largely represents the emperor's position. His frequent visits to the nunnery will also make people fearful of Concubine Jing.

The emperor still insisted on going, but as soon as he lifted the quilt and went to the ground, he felt dizzy for a while, and he fell down on the dragon couch.

It seems that I won't be able to go for a while.

"Your Majesty." Eunuch Wei helped the emperor to lie down and tucked the thin blanket for him. He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Your Majesty, did you tell the empress dowager about your nightmare today?"

The emperor said: "No, what's the matter?"

Duke Wei smiled sheepishly: "Ah... no, just now when the Queen Mother came to visit His Majesty, the Empress Dowager suddenly said that you had a nightmare. How did she know that you had a nightmare? The slave didn't remember to mention it to her."

The emperor frowned.

After a while, he didn't care much and said: "Xu Mufei overheard the conversation between you and me outside the door when the concubine brought the medicine."

Yeah?

Why did he vaguely feel that the empress dowager's expression was a bit strange at that time?

Eunuch Wei didn't dare to say this, maybe he was wrong.

After leaving the palace, Gu Jiao didn't go to the clinic, nor did she go back to Bishui Hutong, but went to Qinghe Academy.

Gu Chengfeng had just finished going to the latrine, and was still pulling up his trousers, when a small hand stretched out and dragged him out!

Gu Chengfeng's underpants almost fell to the ground!

He firmly grabbed his waistband, looked back at the person who had dragged him up to the wall, and his face turned pale with anger: "Stinky girl! Why do you have such a hobby! Peeping at men taking off in broad daylight Pants!"

Those who knew said it was his younger sister, those who didn't know thought it was a traitor who came from somewhere!

Gu Jiao glanced at him in disgust: "Who wants to peek at you taking off your pants? Do you think you look good? That's it."

So, so much?

Gu Chengfeng fell from the wall with a bang!

He fell outside Qinghe Academy, just as Gu Jiao wanted. Gu Jiao landed lightly beside Gu Chengfeng with a little toe.

She put her small hands behind her back, bent over, and looked at Gu Chengfeng slumped on the ground with no love.

Gu Chengfeng felt that one day when he died young, he must be pissed off by this girl.

Killing people is nothing more than nodding their heads. What does it mean to say that he is so small?

Gu Chengfeng's self-esteem as a man was ruthlessly crushed, and he wished he could ask her if you are blind!

He always felt that his own was extremely cruel, until he accidentally caught a glimpse of Xiao Liulang's...

Since then, he has been silent.

Gu Jiao didn't go to the latrine to catch people on purpose, it's because there are too many people in Qinghe Academy, and there are Gu Yan's shadows everywhere.

This is probably the telepathy of twins, as long as she gets close, Gu Yan will feel it.

There is only one place where Gu Yan will not come to look for her, and that is the men's toilet.

It turned out that Gu Yan still underestimated her sister's face.

Gu Jiao has no cleanliness, but she still threw Gu Chengfeng to the river to wash her hands.

Gu Chengfeng, who was disgusted by Lian Fan: "..."

After getting into the carriage, Gu Chengfeng asked Gu Jiao: "I disappeared from the academy without even saying hello. This has a very bad influence. I am a student and I want to study."

Gu Jiao took out a silver note of five hundred taels and put it on the table.

Gu Chengfeng opened his mouth and said, "Even if the academy doesn't pursue it, but if it gets to my grandfather's ears, I will still be punished."

Gu Jiao took out another five hundred taels of silver note and put it on the table.

Gu Chengfeng silently put the banknote into his arms: "It doesn't matter whether the banknote is or not, I mainly want to help you with this. Tell me, where are you going this time?"

Gu Jiao: "The imperial palace."

Gu Chengfeng suddenly felt that the banknote in his arms was hot...is it too late for him to regret it now?

Gu Jiao entered the palace openly, Gu Chengfeng was not so lucky, he is a foreigner, it is not easy to enter the harem, and he has no apparent relationship with Renshou Palace, the queen mother will not summon him, and the emperor has no reason to see Marquis Ding'an The second son of the government.

More importantly, he couldn't reveal his identity, so he could only grit his teeth and climb over the high palace wall.

The two met near the nunnery.

As soon as Gu Jiao arrived on her front foot, Gu Chengfeng also arrived on her back foot.

Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows, she moved very quickly, she was very skilled in her business.

"Have you been to the palace?" Gu Jiao asked.

"How is it possible? You think the palace is a place you can enter casually?" Gu Chengfeng took out a map from his arms, "This."

"The map of the imperial palace?" Gu Jiao opened her eyes wide, "Why do you have this?"

Gu Chengfeng said with a chuckle: "My father is the minister of the Ministry of Industry. The large and small palaces in the palace are maintained by the Ministry of Industry. Even the nunnery of the empress dowager was built by the Ministry of Industry."

So this guy knows the topography of the various government offices like the palm of his hand, and he comes and goes without a trace. Is it because he stole his own father's blueprint?

Gu Chengfeng said coldly: "It's your father too!"

Jiao Dad: Hehehe.

Gu Chengfeng: Forget it, she is not the real Gu Jiaoniang.

"What do you want to steal from the palace?" Gu Chengfeng was actually very puzzled. This girl is favored by the Queen Mother and highly valued by His Majesty. Does she want any treasures? Do you need to steal it by yourself?

Gu Jiao didn't answer, and led him to the vicinity of the nunnery.

Looking at the unpretentious nunnery not far away, Gu Chengfeng fell into confusion: "What is there to steal from a nunnery?"

Gu Jiao asked: "There are Dragon Shadow Guards inside, can you go in?"

Gu Chengfeng almost peed!

He frowned: "You, what are you talking about? Dragon Shadow Guard!"

Gu Jiao asked strangely: "You know?"

Gu Chengfeng snorted and said, "I am the number one thief in Zhao Kingdom. How could I not even know about the Dragon Shadow Guards? The dead soldiers of the late emperor are extremely talented in martial arts. Almost no one in the world can match them! Be good, a nunnery That's all, how could there be Dragon Shadow Guards guarding it?"

Oh, I forgot that this guy doesn't know about Concubine Jing yet.

Gu Chengfeng said thoughtfully: "Could it be that His Majesty sent there? Isn't His Majesty too filial to Concubine Jing? In order to fear that the Queen Mother would harm her, even the Dragon Shadow Guards were dispatched."

Listen, the whole world thinks that my aunt will be detrimental to Concubine Jing, but no one thinks that Concubine Jing will be detrimental to my aunt.

Gu Chengfeng asked: "What are you going to steal from her?"

Gu Jiao said: "Medicine."

"Medicine?" Gu Chengfeng looked her up and down, and said suspiciously, "You are a doctor yourself, and you still use it to steal other people's medicine?"

"Can I go in?" Gu Jiao was irritated.

"I've never tried..." Gu Chengfeng has never even been to the palace, let alone the nunnery guarded by the Dragon Shadow Guard.

You can't beat him—

But of hidden breaths—

Gu Chengfeng took a deep look at the little girl beside him, looked up at the sky, and sighed helplessly.

To be honest, when he dies, he will either be mad at this girl or be killed by her.

Gu Chengfeng hugged Gu Jiao's slender waist: "Don't make a sound or breathe for a while."

Gu Jiao nodded.

Gu Chengfeng looked at the nunnery, which looked like a dragon's lake and a tiger's lair, fixed his eyes, and sneaked in with Gu Jiao's figure.

Gu Jiao didn't expect that he could really bring her in under Long Yingwei's nose, and the old Hou Ye couldn't help but disturb Long Yingwei even when he was alone.

Gu Jiao suddenly had a new understanding of Gu Chengfeng, this guy's lightness kung fu is really good.

The nunnery that came out of the temporary work was not too big, and the terrain was not complicated. Gu Chengfeng found Concubine Jing's house without any effort.

Probably the two of them were lucky, and Concubine Jing happened to be not in the house at the moment, and she went to chant scriptures in the small Buddhist hall.

Gu Chengfeng brought Gu Jiao into the house.

"What does the medicine you're looking for look like?" Gu Chengfeng asked.

"I don't know either." She forgot to ask Mrs. Nan, "But she is not a doctor, so she probably doesn't have many medicines in her hand, so find them all."

The two began to rummage through the house.

However, he quickly found some burn ointments and wound medicines, or pills for nourishing qi and blood, and there were no strange medicines that Gu Jiao had never seen before.

"Could it be on your body?" Gu Jiao murmured.

As soon as the words fell, Gu Chengfeng patted her on the shoulder and motioned her to look at the closet.

Gu Jiao's eyes fell on the wardrobe. The wardrobe seemed ordinary, but for some reason it always gave Gu Jiao the illusion that something was wrong.

Gu Chengfeng whispered: "You also think it looks strange, don't you?"

Gu Jiao nodded.

She stared at the closet for a while, but instead of going to take a closer look, she took a few steps back.

She said: "I know something is wrong, the pattern of the cabinet door is reversed."

The patterns of the two cabinet doors are half on one side, which should have been face to face to form a full moon, but now the full moon that has been cut in half looks back to back and looks to both sides.

It's uncomfortable to watch, and one doesn't want to take a second look.

Gu Jiao stepped forward, touched the two moons that had been cut in half with both hands, twisted her backhand, and the moon was turned straight, forming a shiny full moon.

With a click, the cabinet door opened.

This wardrobe was opened by Gu Chengfeng just now, and there were clothes inside, but now it has a different look - the door is so thick that it is almost opened together with the cabinet body.

And on the innermost side is a dark compartment embedded in the wall.

Gu Chengfeng has long arms, he stretched out his hand to open the hidden compartment, and took out a small box inside.

"Someone is here!" Gu Jiao suddenly said!

Gu Chengfeng didn't have time to open the small box, and he couldn't take it away, otherwise, if someone found it missing and alarmed the Dragon Shadow Guard, the two of them would die.

Gu Chengfeng put the small box back, closed the door of the cabinet, restored the pattern, and led Gu Jiao to perform lightness kung fu on the beam.

The door was pushed open.

Madam Cai walked in.

"Okay, just give me your mother's clothes, go and see if the soup for your mother is ready."

"Yes!"

The two accompanying young nuns handed over the dried clothes to Nanny Cai, turned around and left.

Nanny Cai closed the door, went to the closet, opened the closet door and put the clothes in.

Then she closed the cabinet door and turned to leave.

But after taking two steps, she turned back and frowned at the closet.

Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng on the beam held their breath.

No way, you found out that the closet had been tampered with so quickly?

Gu Jiao pinched a silver needle with her fingertips.

Nanny Cai reversed the pattern, opened the secret door of the closet, moved a stool, stood on it, took out the small box, and checked the contents of the box.

Gu Jiao looked down and saw two medicine bottles, one black and one white!

Hey guys, it's really here!

Nanny Cai took out the two medicine bottles and put the small box back.

No, she wants to take the medicine away?

Madam Cai came to the door.

Gu Jiao slowly raised the silver needle in her hand.

Gu Chengfeng grabbed her wrist: It will be exposed!

Long Yingwei is not a vegetarian, as long as Gu Jiao makes a move, Long Yingwei will immediately notice it!

Medicine or death!

The movement of Gu Jiao's murder will not be louder than their voices, but the Dragon Shadow Guard is a dead soldier, and his brain circuit is different from that of normal people. He turns a deaf ear to the voice of conversation, but is extremely sensitive to murderous intent and martial arts!

However, Nanny Cai hesitated for a moment, shook her head and sighed, and put the medicine bottle back to its original place.

After Nanny Cai left, Gu Chengfeng brought Gu Jiao back to the ground.

Gu Jiao can also jump off by herself, but she can't do it as extreme as Gu Chengfeng, and she will be noticed by Long Yingwei.

Gu Chengfeng took out the small box from the dark compartment, opened it and said to Gu Jiao: "These two bottles are the medicine you are looking for?"

Gu Jiao pulled out the corks of the two bottles, and poured out one pill each.

Gu Chengfeng said strangely: "They look the same, why are they packed in two bottles?"

They do look alike, they are dark brown pills.

"Smell it." Gu Jiao handed two pills under the tip of Gu Chengfeng's nose respectively.

Gu Chengfeng heard about it: "It's medicine, what's wrong?"

"Is there a difference?" Gu Jiao asked.

"No." Gu Chengfeng shook his head decisively.

In fact, there is a difference, but the difference is very subtle, and it is difficult for people who are not proficient in pharmacology to distinguish.

Even Gu Chengfeng couldn't recognize it, and Concubine Jing probably couldn't either.

Gu Jiao hooked the corners of her lips evilly. Originally, she wanted to steal the medicine, but now, she changed her mind.

It's over, this girl has started to play tricks again, I don't know which unlucky person is going to be unlucky again.

Gu Chengfeng shook his head, continued to study the small box, and suddenly gasped and said, "There is still something in the box."

He opened the interlayer of the box, and unexpectedly pulled out a rolled bright yellow imperial decree.

Gu Chengfeng was dumbfounded: "Why does Concubine Jing have an imperial decree here?"

He has never heard of any decrees given by His Majesty to Concubine Jing.

This imperial decree is quite old at first glance.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Gu Chengfeng's mind: "I suddenly remembered something... This incident is just a rumor among the people."

"What's the matter?" Gu Jiao asked.

The little girl is always so impatient.

Gu Chengfeng twitched his lips and said, "Before his death, the late emperor ordered Empress Dowager Zhuang to be buried with him. Concubine Jing stole the imperial decree and burned it at her own risk, thus saving Empress Dowager Zhuang."

He suddenly laughed, "Tell me, is it possible that what was contained in the box was the imperial decree that was burned... that could put the Empress Dowager Zhuang to death?"

Did you forget that I just broke the update? One by one in the comment area, it's all over, the editor has really found it again.

Edit: "You can blow it up again, and you don't need to make too much, just twice as much as this time."

I:"……"
