The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 489: Deceitful Jiaojiao (Part 2)

Gu Chengfeng searched the cabin for a whole time, and was sure that Gu Jiao was really gone. His heart tightened. Of course, he didn't think that Gu Jiao left them and went away. If she wanted to leave them, she didn't have to. follow.

The firewood was almost exhausted, and food was in short supply. Gu Chengfeng speculated that Gu Jiao was either looking for food or firewood.

He couldn't let her take risks in the snow-covered forest alone. He planned to go out to look for it. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the door, he saw a bundle of firewood on his back and an unknown animal skin in his hand. Silently dragging a... person, struggling to walk from the snow.

The reason why she was struggling was that she hadn’t slept for too long, that she was physically exhausted, and that the snow in the forest was so heavy that it was almost impossible for her to walk, not to mention that she was carrying a bundle of firewood, dragging with a person.

Gu Chengfeng was a little dumbfounded.

He guessed that she went to chop wood, but he didn't guess that she would chop someone back!

Gu Chengfeng waded through the thick snow and walked towards her.

When he got closer, he heard weak breathing, and he was sure that it was not a corpse.

Gu Chengfeng's expression was a bit indescribable: "What's the situation? Don't tell me you picked someone up again!"

The reason why "you" is used is not because of the deeds of the old lady and Xiao Liulang.

Without waiting for Gu Jiao's answer, Gu Chengfeng's mouth twitched, and he said with a look of disgust: "Do you have a habit of picking up people in the house? Or you can't find anything to eat, so—"

Gu Jiao gave him a caring little look: "Are you busy?"

"I didn't." Gu Chengfeng denied it, pointing to the man whose face was covered with messy hair and snow, "Who is it?"

Gu Jiao said, "See for yourself."

Gu Chengfeng squatted down, brushed away the messy hair and snow on the opponent's face, a familiar and majestic face met Gu Chengfeng's eyes, Gu Chengfeng was shocked, stood up abruptly, and took a big step back: "Tangyue Mountain!"

He looked at Gu Jiao in disbelief, "You, why did you pick him up? No, I should ask you, why did he appear here? And dressed like... like this?"

Needless to say, the animal skin that was placed under Tang Yueshan's body was stripped from him, and the animal skin was tied around his legs to keep him warm, and the animal skin hat was on his head, making him look like a hunter.

"Wait, the owner of this cabin...couldn't be Tang Yueshan!" Gu Chengfeng opened his mouth wide.

Gu Jiao said: "I don't know who the former owner is, but the current owner should be Tang Yueshan."

"So the reason why the remnants of the former dynasty and the army of Chen Guo couldn't find Tang Yueshan was because he hid here? But why was he injured?"

There was blood on his clothes,

Gu Chengfeng naturally thought that he was injured.

Gu Jiao looked at Gu Chengfeng's eyes and explained: "You mean his blood? He vomited it, he was poisoned."

"Poisoned?" Gu Chengfeng was even more confused, isn't Tang Yueshan very powerful? How could it be poisoned?

Gu Chengfeng thought about a hundred ways for Tang Yueshan to fall, but none of them was related to poisoning. Even if this kind of battlefield general dies, he should die from injury.

Gu Chengfeng didn't expect Gu Jiao to answer this question. After all, she just met Tang Yueshan by chance. It's hard for Tang Yueshan to know that he was poisoned. Even if he knew, he wouldn't explain anything to Gu Jiao.

"Give it to me." Gu Chengfeng stretched out his hand to Gu Jiao.

In fact, he didn't want to save Tang Yueshan. It was Tang Yueshan who was so happy that he refused to listen to his grandfather's dissuasion, which led to the defeat of the army. He also refused to lend someone to his grandfather.

Even if Tang Yueshan died in front of him, he wouldn't bat an eyelid.

But Tang Yueshan was brought back by Gu Jiao, Gu Chengfeng thought about it, he seemed not qualified to interfere with what Gu Jiao did to Tang Yueshan.

However, he still wanted to remind her of her position with Tang Yueshan: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, you abolished Tang Ming, Tang Yueshan and you are irreconcilable, if he knew that you were the murderer who hurt Tang Ming, he would not Let you go."

"En." Gu Jiao responded, expressing that she knew.

"Then you still save him?" Gu Chengfeng was puzzled.

Gu Jiao looked at Gu Chengfeng and said, "Among you, he is the best at fighting."

Gu Chengfeng looked at himself covered in bandages, and thought about his unconscious grandfather, he couldn't refute for a while.

If Chen Guo's army and the remnants of the previous dynasty came after him, apart from this girl, it seemed that Tang Yueshan was the only one left to be alone.

But for some reason, Gu Chengfeng grabbed Gu Jiao's wrist, pointed to Tangyue Mountain in the snow, and said, "Wait, but didn't you say that he was poisoned? Then he can't beat him, right?"

Gu Jiao shattered his expectations with one sentence: "It can detoxify, and heals faster than you."

Gu Chengfeng: "..."

Gu Jiao dragged Tang Yueshan into the cabin.

Together with her, Tang Yueshan's prey was also dragged into the house - Tang Yueshan threw the prey away, and Gu Jiao picked up the prey again. It was three fat rabbits and two fat pheasants.

There were three sick patients in the cabin at once, and only two small bamboo beds were not enough to sleep in. Gu Jiao brought two benches from the main room and set them up one after the other. Then she removed the door panel of the bedroom, The door panels were placed on two benches.

Gu Chengfeng: "..."

That's okay too?

Gu Jiao put Tang Yueshan on the temporary hospital bed.

Then she began to check the poisoning situation for Tang Yueshan. The traces of blackening of Tang Yueshan's Yintang and nails were not obvious, but the gums were swollen, and a blue-black line could be seen under the gingival mucosa.

It's mercury poisoning.

Gu Jiao found a porcelain bottle from Tang Yueshan's body, and poured out a few dark red pills from it.

After Gu Jiao carefully analyzed the ingredients inside, she found a small amount of mercury.

Mercury is extracted from cinnabar. In ancient times, it was mainly used for alchemy and preservation of corpses. Only the extremely powerful people could afford cinnabar and mercury.

But whether it is pure cinnabar or refined mercury, it cannot be used as a elixir, and long-term use will lead to poisoning.

Therefore, those monarchs who begged for immortality often did not have a long life.

Gu Jiao didn't know how Tang Yueshan could have such a thing.

Fortunately, his toxicity is still shallow and did not harm the viscera. Fortunately, this poison can be detoxified by special medicine.

Gu Jiao took the medicine from the small medicine box and gave Tang Yueshan an intravenous infusion.

Tang Yueshan vomited blood and fainted not only because he was poisoned, but he also suffered a little internal injury, but it was far less serious than the old Hou Ye and Gu Chengfeng.

An hour later, Tang Yueshan woke up on the door panel, his treatment was over, his body was covered with his own animal skin, and there was a burning brazier not far away, so he was not cold.

Gu Chengfeng went to watch the fire at the stove in the main room, where a pot of pheasant soup was boiling.

The strong aroma of chicken soup wafted in here and there. Tang Yueshan hadn't eaten for a few days, and he suddenly felt hungry, and his stomach gurgled.

Gu Jiao was changing the old Hou Ye's medicine, when she heard the voice, she replied flatly: "The chicken soup is not ready yet."

The room is so big, Tang Yueshan's wooden bed is in front of the old Hou Ye's bamboo bed, Tang Yueshan turned his head and saw the old Hou Ye and Gu Jiao on the bamboo bed.

There was a trace of solemnity and surprise in his eyes.

His eyes moved away from the old Hou Ye, and landed on the face of Gu Jiao who was changing the medicine for the old Hou Ye, and asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

Gu Jiao changed the medicine for the last time, covered the old Hou Ye with a quilt, turned around indifferently, and took off the mask on his face.

Tang Yueshan frowned slightly when he saw Gu Jiao's half fairy face and half red birthmarked face.

He had never met Gu Jiao, but he had heard of Gu Jiao.

The left cheek has a red birthmark, only fifteen years old, grew up in the countryside since childhood, but is deeply loved by the queen mother.

"I should have guessed it was you..."

Gu Yan's older sister, the queen mother's heart.

This can explain why she took revenge on Tang Ming, and why the Queen Mother lied and acted for her.

Tang Yueshan once again burst out with a murderous aura: "Don't think that if you save me, I will write off the past. If you hurt Ming'er, I want you to pay with your life!"

Gu Jiao knew from his voice that he was recovering well. In fact, Gu Jiao didn't give him much medicine. He carried the internal injury by himself, and he healed the external injury by himself. The only thing Gu Jiao did was to take some medicine to detoxify him.

Well, it saves medicine.

Tang Yueshan became murderous towards Gu Jiao again.

Gu Jiao suddenly raised her hand and stopped his action: "Before you make a move, you might as well check your situation first."

"What do you mean?" Tang Yueshan asked.

Gu Jiao asked inscrutablely: "Do you think I will bring you back for no reason?"

Tang Yueshan's face darkened.

Gu Jiao said: "Open your sleeve and look at your left hand, is there a red line starting from the palm?"

"Look at your dantian again, is there an extra blue mark?"

"Finally touch your hair, isn't it about to bald?"

Tang Yueshan checked them one by one, especially when he touched his bald head, his expression changed drastically: "What did you do to me?"

Gu Jiao looked at him condescendingly with her hands behind her back, raised her eyebrows, and said, "It's nothing, I just poisoned you. You'd better listen to me obediently, otherwise, you will die an ugly death."

Guess, did Jiaojiao really poison Tang Yueshan?
