Chapter 193 Emperor Xia is suspicious, Gu Jingzhi is in crisis!
After Qu Feiyan drank the medicine, in just a moment, Qu Feiyan's face became more rosy.
Seeing that the medicine was effective, Gu Jingzhi immediately said, "I'll have someone send some more over later, one dose a day until she wakes up."
After hearing this, Chen Yu also looked at Qu Feiyan curiously.
She never expected that the medicine that Gu Jingzhi gave her to regulate her body could actually save her life. Isn't this too magical?
How could she know that the medicine was originally used by Gu Jingzhi for practicing martial arts. It was a secret recipe for strengthening the body and stimulating potential.
For example, Gu Jingzhi now uses thousand-year-old blood ginseng. When she regulates her body, she naturally cannot use too strong medicine, so she uses ten-year-old wild ginseng.
Even so, the effect is incomparable to ordinary formulas.
"My dear, how long will it take for her to wake up like this?"
"This……"
Gu Jingzhi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. "It might take some time, but you can find a doctor to see her!"
Qu Feiyan had indeed lost a lot of blood, but fortunately, no internal organs were damaged. Otherwise, with the current level of technology, it would be hard to say. Moreover, Qu Feiyan's body was too weak now, and he couldn't use too much medicine at all, otherwise he would probably die.
Chen Yu silently wrote down what Gu Jingzhi said, but Gu Jingzhi was thinking about what Qu Feiyan said, and felt a little uncertain.
He said: "What Qu Feiyan said is too important, but I can't stay here for too long..."
"Don't worry, my dear. I won't have to worry! If you have anything important to do, just go and do it. I will take good care of her!"
Chen Yu pointed at Qu Feiyan and said softly.
Gu Jingzhi nodded slightly and said, "Remember, this matter is very serious. Don't let anyone know that she is here!"
Chen Yu nodded.
Although she didn't understand the situation, from the little information revealed by Qu Feiyan, she knew that this was a big deal. Who knew if anyone was still looking for this woman.
What's more, she has already mentioned Gu Jingzhi. She relies entirely on Gu Jingzhi, so she is naturally extremely cautious.
"Also, if something happens to me next, don't panic. As long as everyone in my house hasn't been arrested, don't act rashly!"
Chen Yu, who had been relatively calm, was suddenly startled: "My dear, are you in danger?"
Gu Jingzhi shook his head hesitantly: "I'm not sure yet, but I have a feeling there must be a conspiracy. However, I haven't been involved in those messy things, so I guess there won't be any big problems!"
"Then... my dear, please be careful!"
Chen Yu was a little worried, but she forced herself to suppress what was in her mind and just gave some instructions to Gu Jingzhi.
Gu Jingzhi held her hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry! Your Majesty is not a foolish king. As long as I don't do it, it won't happen to me."
"Ok!"
Chen Yu nodded silently.
Gu Jingzhi patted her hands and said, "Something big is about to happen in the capital. I can't stay here for long. I'm going back first. Remember what I said!"
……
Not long after Gu Jingzhi came out of Ning'anfang, he ran into the housekeeper Jiang Feng head-on.
"Oh, my Lord, I finally found you!" Jiang Feng hurried over. Gu Jingzhi didn't know why, but he had a bad feeling. He asked, "But what happened at the mansion?"
"Master, someone has arrived from the palace and is waiting for you at your residence. Please return home quickly!"
In the palace...
Gu Jingzhi thought of Qu Feiyan.
There's no real connection between the two, right?
This thought lingered in his mind for a long time, and he said, "Did the palace maid tell me what it was?"
"That's not the case, but..."
Jiang Feng glanced around, as if he felt a little taboo.
Gu Jingzhi immediately said: "Let's go, let's go back first!"
……
Not long after, Gu Jingzhi returned to his mansion. As soon as he entered the main courtyard, he saw the palace eunuchs standing in the middle, with guards on both sides.
Gu Jingzhi's heart trembled. Even the imperial guards were dispatched.
He stepped forward with forced composure, but before he could speak, the palace eunuch shouted, "Your Majesty's order!"
Gu Jingzhi immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness, Gu Jingzhi, accepts your order!"
"Summon Gu Jingzhi to the palace for an audience..."
Enter the palace!
Gu Jingzhi glanced at the guards and saw that they all had their hands on the hilts of their swords, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.
It seems very likely that it was that.
The eunuch smiled and said, "Master Gu, please follow me into the palace!"
"Father-in-law, please!"
Gu Jingzhi put away his thoughts and put on a smile. The eunuch raised his head and said, "Let's go back to the palace!"
……
Gu Jingzhi kept his eyes closed along the way, constantly sorting out everything in his mind. He did not go to the eunuch to inquire about the news, because he was not familiar with this eunuch.
Secondly, if the reason why Emperor Xia summoned him into the palace was really what he thought, it would be useless to ask. It might even be exposed and arouse unnecessary suspicion in Emperor Xia's mind.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the palace gate, and Gu Jingzhi walked to the imperial study.
Looking at the imperial study filled with guards, he suddenly smiled bitterly in his heart. It seems... something big has happened!
Gu Jingzhi walked forward silently.
"Your Majesty, I, Gu Jingzhi, pay my respects to you..."
"Uh! Gu Qing is here!"
Emperor Xia's tone was very calm. Gu Jingzhi couldn't hear any emotion in his voice. He only heard Emperor Xia ask, "Gu Qing, do you know why I summoned you to the palace this time?"
"Your Majesty's heart is as deep as the sea, I do not know it!"
"I don't know!"
Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes and asked, "Gu Qing, do you really not know?"
"Your Majesty, these past few days, besides staying at home reading and writing, at most I've visited my future wife. I haven't listened to or asked about anything going on in the court. I truly don't know anything!"
"..."
Emperor Xia's lips trembled, and it was unclear whether it was because of anger or something else.
He naturally knew everything about Gu Jingzhi's movements these days and what he was doing in the mansion, but... this matter was too big, and he couldn't help but be suspicious.
Emperor Xia asked, "Princess Lehuang, Jin Lehuang, do you recognize her, Gu Qing?"
"I've met you a few times!"
Gu Jingzhi nodded slightly.
Emperor Xia sneered slightly: "Is it really just as simple as just a few meetings?"
"Your Majesty, it is indeed so!"
"it is good!"
Emperor Xia slammed the table and angrily said, "Then I ask you, are you aware of Jin Lehuang's involvement in the inner guards?"
"Ah? Interfering with the internal security?"
Gu Jing was stunned. He stared at Emperor Xia blankly and asked, "Your Majesty, isn't Princess Le Huang from the Inner Guard House?"
His question actually confused Emperor Xia, who angrily asked, "When did she become a member of the Inner Guard?"
"If not, then how could she mobilize the inner guards? Also, when I was investigating the aristocratic families earlier, it was she who provided me with the information. The files on the aristocratic families in the capital are very detailed. Without the power of the inner guards, how could they have obtained them?"
"Asshole! Didn't I ask Tianshu to send people to assist you?"
"His Majesty!"
Gu Jingzhi's face was full of grievance: "Lord Tianshu did ask the Inner Guard to assist me, but later it was because of the Inner Guard... The Inner Guard had spies from other families, so I dared not be careless!"
"..."
What the hell...
Emperor Xia was a little annoyed.
Feelings, it's because the internal security is unreliable that you...
He glanced at Tianshu, who immediately lowered his head. Emperor Xia snorted coldly, "Then tell me, how did you know that Jin Lehuang was connected to the Inner Guard?"
