That night, Xiao Yanlin told Xiao Ruoyun about the incident.
Xiao Ruoyun didn't think anything of it, just thought it was an ordinary banquet.
On the other hand, Gu Ruanruan, who was in the ancestral hall, somehow knew the news because of his supernatural powers.
She paced back and forth in the dark side room next to the ancestral hall.
She heard that Xiao Yanlin, Gu Baiyu, and even Xiao Ruoyun would go.
If she had not been punished for this matter...she should have been able to follow her into the palace, but now...
Anxiety appeared on her face, and she walked a little faster. Licorice Root stood behind her and asked cautiously, "Auntie, why don't we forget it this time...?"
Gu Ruanruan shook his head: "No!"
She had thought that she would not be able to see the second prince due to the recent tightness of the situation, but the speculation about the incident at the Ministry of Industry had been pressing in her heart. Now that she had the opportunity to visit the palace, how could she let go of this opportunity?
If Xiao Ruoyun could be persuaded to take her out...
As long as Xiao Ruoyun lets go, even the matter of being confined in the ancestral hall can be resolved subtly, and she can also meet the second prince.
From the time she got married to now, she had suffered countless losses from Gu Baiyu. She had to find a way to fight back!
And this is the first step, which is to find a way to follow Xiao Ruoyun into the palace!
Gu Baiyu can naturally think of things she can think of.
Before taking a break, Gu Baiyu told Lingyu to pay attention to the movements at the ancestral hall. She did not believe that Gu Ruanruan would let go of such a good opportunity.
Lingyu asked hesitantly, "Then if Aunt Gu really persuades the second master, how should we stop it?"
Gu Baiyu lowered his eyes slightly.
"That's a matter in her own room. If the second master hasn't learned his lesson yet and is still willing to indulge her, then we can just wait and watch the show. If I had known... the palace is not as good as this back house. If you are not careful, you will lose your head."
Lingyu couldn't help complaining, "I can't figure out what's so good about Aunt Gu that the second master can indulge her again and again!"
Gu Baiyu smiled lightly.
Where is the good?
She didn't know the answer to that question either.
He has never thought about it from his previous life until now.
But that doesn't matter anymore.
During the conversation, Xiao Yanlin, who had gone out to bring the soothing soup, returned to the room.
He was afraid that Gu Baiyu would rest too much during the day and not sleep well at night, so he specially ordered the kitchen to stew a soothing soup.
At this moment, Lingyu came in with soup. Lingyu immediately stopped talking and silently retreated.
"Why is your little maid fighting with you? She's still avoiding me."
Gu Baiyu took the soothing soup and frowned slightly.
There were medicinal ingredients added to this soothing soup, and to be honest, she didn't like it very much.
Xiao Yanlin knew her so well that he knew she didn't like it by looking at her slight frown. He took the soup again, shook a spoonful and brought it to her mouth, "Be good, I'll feed you."
Gu Baiyu snorted lightly, "Then I'll give the Marquis some face."
When she said this, she laughed to herself.
She had never said such arrogant and domineering words before. She was really spoiled and her temper had grown a lot.
Xiao Yanlin didn't feel bored, he just found Gu Baiyu like this very cute.
The two of them finished a bowl of soothing soup, and Gu Baiyu muttered, "Lingyu told me just now because she was afraid that something would happen in the second room tonight."
Xiao Yanlin carried Gu Baiyu to the bed, covered her with a quilt, held her in his arms and patted her.
"That's his second wife's business. He's such an old man. You don't need to worry about everything for him. Just go to sleep."
Gu Ruanruan's side.
When it was time to fall asleep, I still couldn't think of a way.
Licorice came in with a thick quilt and said, "It seems to be a little cooler tonight. I will add an extra quilt for you."
Gu Ruan and Ruan Zhengchou had no chance to meet Xiao Ruoyun...
In fact, she had just asked Licorice to go to Xiao Ruoyun, and not surprisingly, she was rejected by Xiao Ruoyun.
But now, seeing the quilt in Licorice's hand, she seemed to have an idea.
"Put down the quilt and get out."
Licorice thought Gu Ruanruan was in a bad mood and didn't want her in the house, so she left obediently.
After Licorice left, Gu Ruanruan didn't even look at the thick quilt and waved it to the ground, taking the original thin quilt with it.
She gritted her teeth and unbuttoned her clothes one by one, and finally took off all her clothes, leaving only a bellyband and panties.
Then he lay straight on the bed.
After a while, she was shivering with cold.
Although it was late spring and early summer, the temperature at night was still very low, but she seemed to feel that it was not enough. She glanced at the cold tea on the bedside, got up again, drank half the pot, and then drank the rest. All the water poured down on himself.
It was better now, the wind blew gently through the crack of the door, and she was so cold that she curled up on the bed.
In the middle of the night, Gu Ruanruan felt cold all over, his mouth was dry, and his throat was sore.
She swallowed hard, feeling the smell of blood in her throat. When she opened her mouth, her voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
"Licorice, licorice..."
Licorice, who was standing outside the door, heard something wrong with her voice and immediately opened the door.
Pushing open the door, I saw Gu Ruanruan wearing only a bellyband on the bed. Taking advantage of the weak light, his face was red and his lips were pale.
Licorice suddenly panicked: "Auntie, why don't you cover yourself with a quilt?"
She raised her hand in a panic and touched Gu Ruanruan's forehead. It was frighteningly hot!
Licorice was so anxious that she stamped her feet, "Auntie, just wait, I'll go find the old housekeeper to find a doctor for you!"
Gu Ruanruan stopped her with difficulty: "Don't... don't go to the old housekeeper, go directly to the second master."
Licorice was stunned for a moment, then looked at the quilt lying on the ground, already understanding something in his heart.
Gu Ruanruan did it on purpose.
She couldn't explain how she felt. Gu Ruanruan was so cruel that he didn't even let herself go...
Licorice could only hurriedly move the quilt to the bed and cover her up.
"Auntie, please put on some clothes. If the second master comes and sees you, he might be suspicious."
Gu Ruanruan felt as if she had swallowed a razor blade in her throat. She waved her hand to Licorice with difficulty, "I'll put it on myself and go call the second master."
The commotion in the courtyard was not small, and even the main courtyard was alarmed.
Gu Baiyu had not slept soundly to begin with. When he sat up and heard Lingyu's report, he understood.
Gu Ruanruan really did whatever it took to get out.
Lingyu wanted to say something else, but Xiao Yanlin at the side had already pushed Gu Baiyu back onto the quilt again.
"Let them worry about the second house's affairs by themselves and go to sleep."
Then he said to Lingyu outside the door: "You should also go and have a rest. There are secret guards guarding the yard. You need to be energetic and take good care of my wife during the day."
Gu Baiyu was in a daze, coaxed to sleep by Xiao Yanlin again, but the yard beyond the second room exploded.
When Xunfu heard Licorice coming to report, he thought it was Gu Ruanruan pretending to be sick. Unexpectedly, he went to take a look and was shocked.
Gu Ruanruan was so burned that he was almost delirious. He hurried back to talk to Xiao Ruoyun.
Xiao Ruoyun sent a doctor. After thinking about it, he finally couldn't bear it and decided to follow him and take a look.
Xiao Ruoyun didn't think anything of it, just thought it was an ordinary banquet.
On the other hand, Gu Ruanruan, who was in the ancestral hall, somehow knew the news because of his supernatural powers.
She paced back and forth in the dark side room next to the ancestral hall.
