The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

One hundred and forty smashed!

Mrs. Gu usually had people take the peonies out for her to watch, and only went to the flower room in person when the weather was too cold.

There is actually a little distance from Songheyuan to the flower house, but the old man sits in a sedan chair, and it is comfortable without the wind and the rain.

The sedan chair quickly arrived outside the flower room.

The confidant opened the curtain and helped Mrs. Gu down from the sedan chair.

Madam Gu noticed the wide wooden door at a glance, and her gray eyebrows twitched: "Who is looking after the flower room today? Aren't you afraid that the flowers inside will freeze to death if the door is so open?"

The confidant mother hurriedly pointed to a servant to go in and take a look.

The servants went in and took a look, then came out and reported, "I didn't see the gardener."

This made Mrs. Gu even more angry. There is no gardener, which means that the gardener left his post without permission, and he didn't know how long he had been away. The door has been left open!

Madam Gu asked someone to find a gardener and entered the flower room with the help of her confidant.

Previously, Gu Jiao squatted on the ground to observe the flowers, but was blocked by the potted plants behind her. Now she stood up after observing.

As soon as they saw more people, Mrs. Gu and her confidantes were so frightened that their hearts trembled!

"Who?" Madam Gu asked sharply.

Gu Jiao turned her head lightly.

Gu Jiao doesn't dress like a young lady, nor does she look like a servant in the house, but she is not very old, about the same as Gu Jinyu.

Just looking at Gu Jiao's right face can be said to be like a fairy, but there is a big red birthmark on her left face. Mrs. Gu said that she has never seen such a ugly person!

Old Madam Gu's eyebrows jumped: "Where did the wild girl come from? She actually came to the flower room of Hou's mansion?"

The confidant and the maid and maid on the side were also surprised. Yes, where did the wild girl come from? Hou Mansion is not a vegetable garden, outsiders can enter if they want.

Could it be the son or relative of some slave?

But that can't break into the old lady's flower room.

Gu Jiao looked up and down Mrs. Gu and guessed her identity.

Gu Jiao looked at the white flowers in her hands, and at the annoying old Gu who looked like a fried chicken, and hummed thoughtfully.

Madam Gu was even more stunned.

What is this girl's reaction?

Gu Jiao chose the former between revealing her identity and throwing her sleeves away, and she walked towards Mrs. Gu.

But Mrs. Gu thought she was going to stab her, and cried out in excitement: "Come here! Stop her!"

Everyone rushed up and reached out to capture Gu Jiao.

Mrs. Gu stepped back again and again to avoid this terrifying battlefield, but unfortunately she didn't have long eyes when she retreated and accidentally bumped into the flower stand behind her.

She didn't stand still, and fell down on the flower stand. In a panic, she reached out to grab the flower stand in the front row, trying to stabilize her figure, but the flower stand couldn't bear the force and was pulled down by her all of a sudden.

Dozens of potted plants on the flower stand fell down, and Mrs. Gu didn't even have time to sigh, so she was instantly buried under a pile of rubble.

The confidant took a breath, but she didn't pay attention for a while,

How did this happen?

How could everyone care about going up to catch Gu Jiao, and they turned around to save Mrs. Gu.

Gu Jiao spread her hands innocently.

It's not her fault this time.

Everyone was in a hurry for a while, Gu Jiao shook her head and walked out of the conservatory with a bunch of white flowers she picked.

Although the flower house and Yao's yard are only separated by a wall, the road is very long and has to be detoured.

Fang mama finally took small steps and walked around half of the marquis before coming to the flower room. When she saw Gu Jiao coming out of the flower room, she called out of breath, "Big, big..."

Before she made any loud noises, she saw that Gu Jiao made another slight vertical motion, climbed over the wall, and returned to Yao's yard.

Housemaid who doubts life: "..."

When Momma Fang took small steps and walked around half of the Hou's mansion back to Yao's yard, she felt that her old legs were not hers anymore!

The nanny was panting while leaning against the pillars under the porch.

Gu Jiao sat on the stone bench in the yard, playing with the bunch of white flowers on the stone table in front of her.

This flower is really beautiful, white and elegant, out of the world.

"Mummy," she said, "who planted all the flowers in that conservatory?"

Fang mama waved her hand, she couldn't speak, she was dying of exhaustion!

Gu Jiao didn't rush her, and asked her servant to pour her a cup of hot tea.

After a few sips of hot tea, Momma Fang finally calmed down.

She staggered and came to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao said, "Sit and talk."

"Thank you eldest lady." Fang Fang is a very strict person, but she really couldn't hold it anymore, she sat down on the stone bench beside Gu Jiao and said, "The flowers in the flower room are from the flowers in the house. The artisans planted whatever flowers the old lady liked, and the gardeners planted whatever flowers they liked. Generally, peonies are the most common, but there are also some peony, clivia, and water lilies. There are other flowers, such as begonias in Xifu, and slaves go to the flower room. Not many times, I just listened to the servants in the house."

After a pause, what came to mind, Fang Momo added, "But Concubine Ling can also grow flowers, and she is better than a gardener. The old lady now leaves her to take care of it."

Gu Jiao narrowed her eyes: "I see, where is she?"

Momma Fang realized something and asked, "Miss...why did you ask this all of a sudden? Is there something wrong with the flower room?"

"There are problems. As for who did it, you have to find out." Gu Jiao didn't think about whether it was intentional or unintentional. She didn't believe that there were so many coincidences in the world, otherwise Yao shi would not have been arrested in Zhuangzi. People are poisoned.

Some people think Yao Shi is an eyesore and want to get rid of Yao Shi.

Mother Fang naturally also thought of this floor, but she did not expect it to be related to the flower room.

"Slave, go and find out."

Aunt Fang went to inquire about Aunt Ling's whereabouts, but Aunt Ling was not in the house at the moment, so she went back to her mother's house to visit relatives.

"I'll come back another day." Gu Jiao took the flower, "Don't let Madam come out to blow air these few days."

"Yes!" Aunt Fang responded.

She glanced at Gu Jiao and was filled with emotion.

Maybe she is still a little uncomfortable with some of the actions of the eldest lady, but it is undeniable that when something happens to the lady, it is the eldest lady who can really be trusted.

On the other side, Gu Changqing returned to the Hou Mansion.

As soon as he entered the mansion, he heard that something happened to Mrs. Gu, and he went to Mrs. Gu's yard.

Mrs. Gu was hit hard by the flower pot, her body was blue and purple, and her forehead was smashed.

"What happened?" Gu Changqing asked.

The confidant said: "A wild girl came from somewhere in the house, rammed the old lady, and caused the old lady to fall in the flower room."

Listen, listen, fall on your own, you have to rely on others.

Madam Gu held down the gauze on her forehead and said angrily, "It must be a thief! Go and catch her!"

If it's a thief, then of course you have to be caught.

Gu Changqing ordered the mansion to be sealed off.

As soon as Gu Jiao's carriage arrived at the gate of the mansion, a guard stopped her.

The guard said: "There has been a thief in the mansion, and the prince has an order, no one is allowed to enter or leave the mansion freely!"

Fang Momo said sternly: "You see clearly! This is Madam's carriage! Will there be thieves on Madam's carriage?"

The guard said: "Offended!"

Gu Changqing's bodyguards only obeyed his orders, not to mention Yao's carriage, and the old lady's carriage could not pass.

When the two sides were arguing, Gu Changqing heard the movement here, and he came over with a cold expression.

Fang Momo gave him a salute: "Sir."

Gu Changqing looked at the carriage behind her: "Madam is going out?"

Momo Fang opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer for a while.

Gu Jiao lifted the curtain of the car window and looked at Gu Changqing with a dignified face: "I'm going out."

Gu Changqing's expression immediately stopped.

After learning that the boy was Gu Yan, of course he also guessed Gu Jiao's identity. It would be false to say that he was not shocked, but it would be hypocritical to say that he was still shocked after so many days.

He looked at Gu Jiao with complicated eyes.

Gu Jiao just found out that this person turned out to be her and Gu Yan's half-brother Gu Changqing.

No wonder he dreamed of him.

No wonder he hasn't come for so many days.

It should have guessed the identity of himself and Gu Yan.

This is really...I don't know how to say it.

The people in the two rooms, who were obviously not dealing with them, had a strange relationship - he saved Xiao Jingkong, he saved him, and he saved Gu Yan.

Gu Jiao looked at the half-brother in front of her, resting her chin in her small hand: "Will you not let me go?"

Gu Changqing was slightly taken aback by her calm and calm tone.

Does she have no baggage at all?

for their identity.

"No." Gu Changqing recovered and said to the guard, "Let go."

"Yes!" The guard did not ask much, and respectfully stepped aside.

Mommy Fang was very puzzled, looking at the posture of the eldest young lady and the prince...like they knew each other?

Gu Jiao lowered the curtain, and the carriage had just taken two steps when she suddenly stopped the carriage, opened the curtain again, and threw the bunch of white flowers from it.

Gu Changqing caught it subconsciously.

In fact, according to Changqing's previous training, the things thrown by others should be avoided, and even he himself didn't understand what happened.

He looked at Gu Jiao strangely.

Gu Jiao didn't speak any more, just pulled the curtain down, and then left in the carriage.

The people around were confused.

what's going on? That girl... gave a flower to their eldest son?

Gu Changqing didn't think she would give him flowers for no reason. He looked at the flowers in his hand, frowned and fell into deep thought.

Gu Changqing thought about the flower room.

Gu Changqing called the gardener in the house: "Do you recognize this flower?"

The gardener said: "This is the flower in the flower room."

Gu Changqing asked, "What kind of flower?"

The gardener shook his head: "The slaves don't know."

Gu Changqing said coldly, "You don't know what you planted yourself?"

The gardener was embarrassed. He was not a real gardener. He was just a servant who guarded the garden. He worked with the old gardener for a while. After the old gardener was dismissed, he became a new gardener.

He said, "This flower was not planted by slaves, but by Concubine Ling."

Gu Changqing asked the gardener to step back and called the palace doctor.

The doctor of the government did not understand flowers, but if this is not an ordinary flower, but a blind medicine, then it will be another matter.

"Sir, this is a mandala, be careful! It's poisonous!"

Gu Changqing frowned: "Poisonous?"

The doctor said: "Yes, this kind of flower is poisonous whether it is white or red. The seeds are the most poisonous, followed by the flowers and leaves. It can also be used as medicine. The Mafei Powder we use is mainly used for refining."

"Is it poisoning just by touching it?" Gu Changqing asked.

"That's not true, the prince is strong, let alone touch it, it doesn't matter if you eat." The doctor said flatteringly.

With that being said, he would go to swallow poison if he had nothing to do with it?

The mansion doctor continued: "But if the body is too weak, just smelling its floral fragrance will also be affected, either excited or depressed."

Gu Changqing said again: "If someone who is already thinking too much, often smells the fragrance of its flowers, will it make his condition worse?"

The doctor nodded: "Yes, hallucinations may occur in severe cases, and what's more, it is not uncommon to commit suicide or lose one's mind."

Gu Changqing thought of Yao Shi who almost died with Gu Chenglin that day.

He thoughtfully asked, "Is this kind of flower common?"

The doctor said: "It's common, and it's found on the mountain, but unfortunately most people don't know it. Just because it looks good, they took it home and brought it home, and it turned out to be poisoned."

At night, Aunt Ling returned to the house.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Gu Changqing's servant waiting there.

She asked, "Is something wrong?"

The servant said, "Aunt Ling, the prince is looking for you."

Aunt Ling was stunned for a while, then smiled, "Okay, I see."

Aunt Ling went to Gu Changqing's courtyard.

Gu Changqing was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard. Seeing her coming, he hurriedly collected the sword and threw it to the servant.

"Auntie, come and sit," he said.

The two sat down on the stone bench.

Some servants served refreshments.

Gu Changqing said: "This is a new snack made in the kitchen. I specially reserved it for my aunt, and my aunt will try it."

Aunt Ling took a sip: "It tastes good."
