Chapter 159 Boudoir Joy

Gu Liang carried her to the main courtyard.

Jiang Zhi saw what appeared to be a figure moving outside the courtyard gate and gestured for Gu Liang to put her down.

"Dr. Xiaobai?"

Jiang Zhi recognized the figure and her face lit up with surprise.

Bai Wuyou's expression turned strange when she saw her get down from Gu Liang's arms.

He nodded to Jiang Zhi and said to Gu Liang, "The medicine is ready."

Jiang Zhi's eyes lit up, and his face showed an indescribable excitement.

"Is it a medicine to treat poisoning?" she asked.

She always remembered to tell Yu Jiuxia to keep an eye out for that Qilin Clover. Since Bai Wuyou had already brewed the medicine to treat the poison, then he must have found that herb.

Gu Liang nodded and looked at Bai Wuyou, "You must be tired too."

Bai Wuyou said, "It's alright."

Gu Liang's expression changed slightly.

Bai Wuyou frowned and looked at them. "You've just returned; you shouldn't overexert yourselves."

“That’s natural,” Gu Liang said calmly.

After Bai Wuyou left, Jiang Zhi gazed in the direction Bai Wuyou had gone and pondered.

Gu Liang took her hand and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Zhi shook her head. "I always feel like the way Dr. Bai looks at you is like he's looking at a lecherous man."

Gu Liang curled the corners of her lips, "You said that little girl misused allusions, but weren't you just making things up yourself?"

Jiang Zhi knew she had nothing to say.

She quickly changed the subject, "Wait a minute, why is no one serving in the courtyard today?"

There were no guards, not even a servant to serve tea; that was strange.

Gu Liang smiled. "Perhaps someone understood someone else's thoughts first."

He had noticed something was wrong as soon as he entered the room.

"Huh?" Jiang Zhi turned to look in the courtyard. "Where's Commander Qing?"

Meanwhile, in a corner of the Prince's mansion, Qinghuai sighed to Bai Wuyou, "I went to great lengths to have this room prepared; don't disturb it tonight."

"I didn't," Bai Wuyou said irritably.

If Gu Liang hadn't kept writing to him along the way, asking if Jiang Zhi had noticed anything unusual, fearing that his act would be exposed, he wouldn't have gone to invite this trouble.

Gu Liang glanced into the courtyard and led Jiang Zhi inside.

The room was brightly lit, and the objects inside were bathed in a lazy warmth.

Gu Liang stepped into the inner room and paused.

Jiang Zhi lagged half a step behind him. She looked around curiously and couldn't help but pause in surprise.

The two beds that were originally separated have now become one big bed.

There were also some furnishings that weren't there before, and even red candles and peanuts on the table...

Gu Liang chuckled softly, as if she had thought of something.

Jiang Zhi heard him chuckle softly.

Turning his head, he said, "Wasn't this what you asked someone to prepare?"

Gu Liang said calmly, "If I had someone prepare it, it would definitely be more than this."

His words betrayed a sense of unfinished business, and Jiang Zhi avoided his gaze, feigning anger, "Then we'll have to see who acted first and reported later."

The two walked to the door at the same time, and Gu Liang called out first, "Come out."

The vast courtyard seemed to stand still for a moment.

Footsteps rustled as people stepped out from various corners.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Zhi really didn't know whether to laugh or not.

Seeing that Wu Shi and Chen Xi were among them, she called them over and said, "You've both learned to do this behind my back?"

She outwardly blamed him.

At noon, a smile appeared on her face. "Oh, Your Highness, aren't we just thinking of you?"

"Besides, I'm just worried that you won't be used to resting properly after coming back from over there."

Jiang Zhi crossed her arms and smiled silently.

Gu Liang glanced at everyone in the courtyard and said to Jiang Zhi, "You must be tired too, why don't you rest for a bit?"

After saying that, he instructed the guards in the courtyard, "You all go about your business."

After everyone dispersed, he walked up to Qinghuai, gave him a complicated look, and pointed at him, saying, "You brat."

-

It's daybreak.

Jiang Zhi turned over to face outwards, opened her eyes, and found no one beside her.

She was too tired yesterday, so she fell asleep first.

Gu Liang summoned Qing Huai to the study to discuss matters, but it's unclear whether she returned to her room in the middle of the night.

Jiang Zhi touched the other side of the blanket; it was still warm.

She got out of bed, put on her clothes, and kept wondering to herself.

Last night, Gu Liang was in such a hurry to bring her back to the house that he just wanted to share a bed with her.

"Your Highness, are you awake?" asked Wu Shi outside the door.

Jiang Zhi called her into the house, and after a quick wash, she...

“Noon,” she said, looking at Noon, “go and get the little box from the cupboard.”

He nodded at noon, then turned and took out a small box from the cabinet.

Jiang Zhi took it, opened it, and inside was a pink pill—Jia Fanghua.

"Go and get the silver needles I put under my pillow."

"Yes, Your Highness." Wu Shi turned around and went to get silver needles for Jiang Zhi.

Taking the silver needles, Jiang Zhi crushed the pink pills into powder.

These umbellate powders release their toxicity once they come into contact with blood.

She took out a peach blossom glass hairpin from the small cabinet on her dressing table.

The hairpin, adorned with peach blossoms, is made of crystal-clear glass. She picked it up and shook it twice, the glass beads gently clinking together to produce a pleasant sound.

Then I heard a surprised voice at noon, "Your Highness, this hair ornament is truly unique."

Jiang Zhi remained calm, pinched the end of the hairpin, and gently twisted it. The hairpin head instantly separated from the peach blossom, revealing a hollow interior.

Wu Shi's eyes widened. "Your Highness, what... what is this?"

Jiang Zhi smiled. "This hairpin was bought in Chong'an Prefecture; it's a hidden weapon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Zhi took some of the powder from the table and poured it into the hollow part of the hairpin.

Then the hair ornament will be restored to its original state.

"The Qionghua Banquet is tomorrow, so let's bring this."

At noon, she asked with some concern, "Your Highness, could this also cause you to be poisoned?"

Jiang Zhi shook his head, "No, as long as the Fanghua doesn't enter the bloodstream, it won't cause poisoning."

He nodded at noon, but still worried, "We must be very careful at tomorrow's Qionghua Banquet."

Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "Don't worry."
