After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

Tan Zhixu thought that someone must have done it deliberately.

Gu Huaijing now has a bright future, and there are certainly jealous people in the court.

In this case, it is not strange to attack him.

"Gu Yu, go to the Dongjiao Pharmacy and ask the shopkeeper to take out the medicine I have hidden."

"Miss, do you have a bezoar?" Gu Yu looked at Tan Zhixu doubtfully.

Tan Zhixu nodded, and in her new life, she had stocked up on some of the common medicines needed after the disaster, not to make profits, but just so that the suffering people would not have to worry about medication in the future.

"Then slave girl, go now." Gu Yu knew that the young lady was worried about Gu Huaijing, so she went straight to the medicine shop without a moment's delay.

After seeing Gu Yu off, Tan Zhixu quietly came to the place where Gu Huaijing was resting.

Due to the injury, he looked very haggard.

Teng Xi was waiting at his side, his eyes full of distress and unwillingness.

"Master, this must be..."

Before the words could be spoken, Gu Huaijing shot him a cold look. Teng Xi shut up, with unconcealable anger still on his face.

"There is no evidence, so don't doubt it."

"Master, you are now the Admiral of the Canal. You are the youngest among your colleagues. The big officials who are about the same age as you are now below the third rank. A few years ago, you were drinking together, but now they are always behind your back. Deliberately trying to figure you out..."

"What's the matter?"

Gu Huaijing didn't care at all.

In the officialdom, it is common to be slandered and questioned. If you are sad and concerned about such things, how can you serve the country and protect your country?

"Master, you are open-minded, but they are not. Now they are looking for people to attack you while you are patrolling the river. You may not know when secret arrows will follow..."

"Just pay more attention. If it was man-made, I wouldn't let him go."

Gu Huaijing does not cause trouble, nor is he afraid of trouble. If the unscrupulous merchants he suppresses retaliate maliciously, he will warn them and send them to the Yamen. If they are really colleagues, they will be sorry.

"grown ups."

Suddenly, the urgent voice of the government servant came from outside the door.

Tan Zhixu turned his body sideways, hiding himself more secretly behind the window.

The yamen servant received Teng Xi's signal and pushed the door in. He looked at Gu Huaijing respectfully, "Sir, the bezoar is still not found. My subordinates found out that someone purchased the bezoar in large quantities a few days ago."

"It's really man-made." Teng Xi was already angry and now he was even angrier. He clenched his hands into fists and said, "Master, I'm going to investigate right now. I want to see who has eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard."

Teng Xi turned around and left without waiting for Gu Huaijing's instructions.

The yamen servant looked at Gu Huaijing and then at Teng Xi who was walking away, "Sir?"

"Go."

"Yes."

After the yamen servant left, Gu Huaijing was the only one left in the inspection room.

He tapped acupuncture points to slow down the blood circulation and made sure that the toxicity would not attack so quickly, and then continued to handle official duties.

Listed on the chopping board were all the unscrupulous merchants he had dealt with in recent times, as well as the officials from the DPRK and China who colluded with the merchants.

Everyone said that he was red-blooded, but they didn't know that His Majesty Chrysostom asked him to investigate all this.

In order to better prevent some people from clinging to the court ministers, the emperor did not give any big orders, but asked Gu Huaijing to investigate secretly.

You don’t know if you don’t investigate, but once you investigate, you will find out that there are so many officials who are motivated by their own selfish desires and ignore the interests of the people.

Gu Huaijing looked at the records in the account book, clenched his hands into fists, and pounded them on the table.

Tan Zhixu trembled slightly and clicked his tongue worriedly.

"who……"

It had to be said that Gu Huaijing was still very perceptive. Her voice was very soft, but he still heard her.

Tan Zhixu turned around to leave, but he appeared.

Their eyes met, and Tan Zhixu concealed his inner panic, but the man in front of him failed to restrain his expression because of the unexpected situation.

In his astonished eyes, Tan Zhixu smiled tenderly, "Master Gu, long time no see, why are you still injured?"

Tan Zhixu was as charming as silk, and her slender hands touched his strong chest seemingly unintentionally.

To be honest, Gu Huaijing's figure is incredible, you can still feel it through his pajamas.

Tan Zhixu found that ever since he pretended to be dissolute in front of Gu Huaijing, his contact with him seemed to be closer than before, and he really agreed with his words: If you die shamelessly, everything will be possible.

"Tan Zhixu, do you have to be so angry with me?"

There was no one around, and Gu Huaijing's deep eyes were full of sadness.

Maybe it was because of the poisoning, maybe it was because he couldn't find an antidote, and he felt like he would never see her again.

If it was really the last time they met, he wanted to say: Tan Zhixu, have you really changed?

"Sir, what do you mean by this? I don't understand." Her heart was bleeding when she saw Gu Huaijing's disappointed and sad eyes, but her words were a little frivolous.

Gu Huaijing calmed down his emotions and smiled bitterly, "Second Madam, this is an important canal area in the capital. If nothing happens, please leave."

"Okay, I'll leave now."

Tan Zhixu knew that she couldn't bear it anymore. If she had another cup of tea, she would have to throw herself into Gu Huaijing's arms.

She turned around with a smile, and tears fell down the moment she turned her head, but - Gu Huaijing couldn't see it anymore.

Gu Huaijing looked at Tan Zhixu's slender back. She was so weak that she no longer belonged to him.

Not long after, Teng Xi came back frustrated.

"Master, we haven't found out who did it, and the bezoar is still not found."

"My lord, my lord, I found it, I found it."

Suddenly, the guard's cheerful voice came from the door.

Tengxi's drooped head instantly lifted up, and the guard smiled and took out a medicine bag, a large bag of bezoar.

Before the guards arrived, someone had been sent to call the doctor, and the two of them came to the inspection room.

When the doctor saw the bezoar, relief flashed across his vicissitudes of face, "I'm going to cook the medicine right now."

After saying this, the doctor took the bezoar and went out to cook medicine.

Gu Huaijing looked at the guard calmly, "Where did you find it?"

"This one……"

The guard hesitated and hesitated for a while without saying the source.

Teng Xi frowned, "What, stolen?"

"No, it's just that my subordinates don't know how to say it..." The guard scratched his head, organized his words, and then said: "It was given by a masked girl."

"girl?"

Teng Xi muttered, and when he looked at Gu Huaijing, he looked at him with a look on his face.

Gu Huaijing's expression looked pretty good at this time, and something strange flashed between his eyebrows.

is it you?

"My lord, is it possible?"

Teng Xi asked, and Gu Huaijing came to his senses, "It doesn't matter who it is. Don't tell anyone that you have found the antidote. Whoever can't sit still is the person behind the scenes."

"Yes."

Seeing that Gu Huaijing didn't want to continue asking about the bezoar, Teng Xi stopped talking.

After receiving the order, he and the guards rushed down.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire capital knew that Gu Huaijing had been poisoned.

Gu Yu and Tan Zhixu were sitting in the carriage. When she heard the people talking on the street, she frowned.

"Miss, didn't you ask your slave to deliver a bezoar to Master Gu? Why can't Master Gu's poison be cured?"
