Fortunately, there was nothing serious about Gu Fengyan, Huo Duan was worried, so he followed him to the Xinglin Courtyard. After looking around and asking about everything, Lin Ru frowned for a while, but he couldn't see any major problems, so he started with Gu Fengyan's diet , Ask carefully.

The cheeks of the two were flushed with embarrassment, they couldn't tell the truth, Gu Fengyan prevaricated.

Lin Ru deliberated and prescribed some medicines for eliminating indigestion and relieving depression, and asked to go back and fry them carefully.

After taking the medicine, they went back to the house in the county. It was just dark when Liu Zhengshan told them that they were going back to the village by ox cart.

However, Gu Fengyan was a little worried. He offended County Magistrate Zhu today. In a short time, he could use the name "Yao Chunlan" to scare Zhu Kuo away.

Zhu Kuo is a sinister man, with a knife hidden in his smile, and under his elegant skin, there is an ugly face scarier than jackals.

If he reacted, the first thing he would deal with would be the three people who offended him.

When Liu Zhengshan went home at this time, Gu Fengyan and Huo Duan were also worried, so they asked people to stay at home together for one night.

Walking along the way... Gu Fengyan suddenly realized that it was a very stupid decision for them to rush to find Zhu Kuo.

"Ah Yan?" At the door, Father Huo had already ushered Liu Zhengshan in, the two of them were talking and Gu Fengyan was lost in thought, Huo Duan called him.

"Hmm... is it here?" Gu Fengyan raised his eyes.

Huo Duan stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, "What are you thinking about?"

Gu Fengyan shook the medicine bag in his hand, "No, I'm just worried that Zhu Kuo will make some mess when he reacts."

"Just now you mentioned Yao Chunlan and he reacted so strongly, but you can check..." Huo Duan frowned and thought.

Gu Fengyan stepped into the yard, closed the door by the way, and bolted it, "It's okay if we can catch the handle, but it's difficult to deal with the debt of love..."

Huo Duan smiled, "I can't say for certain, I see his flustered appearance, it's probably because of a guilty conscience...Let's check first."

Gu Fengyan nodded, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the house along the dark place under the corridor, "It's not too late, I'll talk about it tomorrow... I'll go take a bath."

After speaking, he strode towards the bathroom as if nothing had happened.

Huo Duan had already figured out what was going on in his mind, he grabbed Gu Fengyan and dragged him back——

"Don't worry, Ah Yan..." He raised his eyebrows and smiled, turned Gu Fengyan's hand lightly, and took away the medicine prescribed by Mr. Lin, "Don't worry about taking a bath, you haven't taken your medicine yet? What's the rush?"

"Hey..." Seeing that the matter was revealed, Gu Fengyan went to grab it, but Huo Duan raised his hands high, suppressed by his height, Gu Fengyan couldn't grab it no matter what, so he could only stare and hate Huo Duan.

"How grown up, I'm still afraid of this... I'll fry it for you, okay?" Huo Duan couldn't help laughing, and coaxed Gu Fengyan into his arms, "I still have some pine nut candy I bought last time. It won't be hard for you to eat after drinking it." ,OK?"

What about coaxing a child?Gu Fengyan was very dissatisfied, and struggled to scold him, "If you want to drink, you drink it, but I won't drink it!"

Huo Duan rubbed left and right, "Then I'll feed you after drinking?"

"Get out!" Gu Fengyan lost his temper completely, and cursed without any threat... I have to say, Huo Duan is really like a dog's skin plaster, and he can't shake it off, scolding him is like hitting cotton with his fist Like it.

Gu Fengyan was very annoyed.

"Ayan, I'm worried about you if you don't drink the medicine... I'm worried." Huo Duan knew the scale very well, and he played it to the limit, he smiled and looked at Gu Fengyan seriously.

As bright as the stars in the sky.

But Gu Fengyan liked this so much, he had no choice but to turn his face away from him, "Decoction, I'll take a bath first."

This can be regarded as being completely controlled by Huo Duan... He looked up at the sky and sighed.

After hearing this sentence, Huo Duan kissed him lightly for a while, until his panting became louder, "I'll carry you." He stroked Gu Fengyan's earlobe, smiling bewitchingly.

Gu Fengyan was so soft that he couldn't figure it out anymore, he just felt that the moon on the treetops was really bright... He nodded obediently.

After tossing around in the bathroom in the middle of the night, the floor was covered with water... Huo Duan carried Gu Fengyan, who had wet, red and soft eyes, back to his room before going to decoct the medicine.

The medicine was cooked, but Gu Fengyan refused to drink it, thinking of Huo Duan's behavior of animals/beasts in the bathroom, the corners of his eyes were moist with grievance, and he complained in a hoarse voice, "You will bully me."

Huo Duan's ears were red... How could he bear it in that situation?

"My fault, I'm an asshole, I'm not human...you can just stop drinking if you don't want to drink, and I'll fry it tomorrow." He pulled Gu Fengyan, who was only wearing thin pajamas, over to him, wrapped in a quilt, and embraced him inside.

Gu Fengyan flinched, "Swear a few more words, I'll drink it when I feel comfortable."

Huo Duan smiled, rubbed against the top of his head, and cursed again, Gu Fengyan nodded while listening...the two had a fight for a while, Gu Fengyan finally drank the medicine before falling asleep.

After sending Liu Zhengshan away the next day, Gu Fengyan and Huo Duan began to figure out where to find Zhu Kuo.

According to Liu Zhengshan, Zhu Kuo was originally from Yunze County, but later his father donated a small official to Zhu Kuo after he made a fortune in business, and went to Qianmo County as the magistrate.

Yunze County is some distance away from Qianmo County. It is said that not long after Zhu Kuo became the county magistrate, his father died of a sudden illness, and his family fell down. Zhu Kuo has not been seen back for so many years.

"To investigate this matter, I'm afraid we have to go there in person." Huo Duan said.

Gu Fengyan had just taken the medicine, frowned bitterly, Huo hurriedly fed him a pine nut candy... Gu Fengyan finally recovered.

"Zhu Kuo must have figured it out by now. He's not stupid. He can definitely guess what we're going to do. There's still time to set off." He put down the white porcelain bowl, and the pine nuts he chewed creaked.

After discussing it, they told Father Huo to pretend not to be there.After tidying up and making arrangements at home, Gu Fengyan and Huo Duan took the money and drove the carriage out of the border of Qianmo County.

The journey went smoothly, but it took half a day to arrive at Yunze County.

As its name suggests, Yunze County has a lot of water in the city, and it's already afternoon. Seeing that they couldn't go back today, Gu Fengyan and Huo Duan booked a room at an inn near the water to take a rest.

Before lunch, Huo Duan asked Gu Fengyan to sit down first, and he went downstairs to ask the boss for food.

The name of the inn is "Yunlai", and the owner is a middle-aged aunt, who is shaking a cattail fan and flicking the silver sparrow hairpin on her head, and is knocking pumpkin seeds and playing with her abacus.

There was no one in the hall, the man sat by the window and took a nap.

"Miss Boss, please bring up the meals. Choose light dishes and add a pot of clear tea... Don't put onions and garlic in the meals. My wife doesn't eat these." Huo Duan walked over and knocked on the counter, saying something .

The proprietress just raised her head and said with a smile: "Mr. Lang is a caring person, so I will arrange for someone to send it up."

Looking at the sleeping man under the window, he cursed, "Little bastard, you are dead! The guests are still sleeping after they come down! Hurry up and arrange to go!"

The guy jumped up, agreed, and went to the back kitchen to pass the dishes.

The proprietress rolled her eyes and smiled at Huo Duan, "I'm afraid the young man and the young lady are not locals... come to play?"

Huo Duan smiled and said nothing.

The proprietress looked at Huo Duansheng's handsome appearance, so she started chatting, "The visitor is a guest, so I have to serve you a dish as a landlord."

Huo Duan thanked him, thinking that Gu Fengyan was upstairs alone, so he turned to leave, but remembered their purpose for coming.

"Miss Boss, I want to ask you something..." He turned around and said without much hope.

The proprietress smiled, "You ask, there is nothing in the boundary of Yunze County that I, Zhao Sanniang, don't know!"

Huo Duan looked around and saw that there was no one there, so he asked tentatively, "The proprietress has heard of the Zhu family in the north of the city...or the name "Yao Chunlan"? "

"Yao Chunlan?" Zhao Sanniang fiddled with the hand of the abacus, looked up at Huo Duan with a strange expression, "What do you ask her for?"

Seeing this reaction, Huo Duan knew there was something going on, and he made up a nonsense reason: "Yao Chunlan is an old friend of my aunt's boudoir. I passed by here on business with my wife, and my aunt sent us to say hello. Who knows? I can't find my way."

Zhao Sanniang stared at him for a while, and then said: "It turned out to be like this, you two just go to the biggest house in the north of the city to find it... But I'm afraid it will make your mother worry."

"How do you say that?" Knowing that Yao Chunlan was still alive, Huo Duan was overjoyed, but he didn't know where Zhao Sanniang's disappointment came from.

Zhao Sanniang sighed, "She often loses her mind and goes crazy after being stimulated. I'm afraid she won't remember who your aunt is."

"That's how it is." Huo Duan sighed for a while.

But it's good if you can find someone, you can always find out.

The waiter went upstairs with the dishes. After Huo Duan finished asking, he nodded and said, "There is one more thing...the proprietress knows about the old Zhu family in Yunze County."

After finding Yao Chunlan, the Zhu family was no longer important. Huo Duan asked casually, and didn't expect Zhao Sanniang to answer him.

Zhao Sanniang's expression became even weirder, "My lord, did Lingtang forget to tell you... The Zhu family in the north of the city was the most extensive in Yunze County back then, and Yao Chunlan was Master Zhu's No. 11 concubine..."

As she spoke, she remembered another gossip, and continued: "Back then, Yao Chunlan was the most beautiful woman in Yunze County, but she was sold to Master Zhu because of her poor family... This Yao Chunlan used to be in love with Zhu Kuolang, the eldest son of the Zhu family. Well, this is like Tang Minghuang Yang Guifei and Shou Wang, messing up in a pot of porridge!"

She was talking vigorously, but she forgot that Yao Chunlan and Xiao Langjun's mother were good friends... Isn't it a slap in the face to gossip in front of someone?

"Ah, that's not what I meant..." Zhao Sanniang really wanted to give herself a slap in the face, so she quickly explained, "I just follow along..."

"Yao Chunlan is Master Zhu's concubine?!" Huo Duan raised his head suddenly, his eyes were on Zhao Sanniang.

Zhao Sanniang trembled in fright, "Oh, why is Mr. Xiao Lang making such a fuss?"

With such a large amount of information, Huo Duan was ecstatic for a moment, and hurriedly apologized, "Sorry, I scared you, thank you, I will go up first."

After speaking, he stepped up the steps in a few steps, and hurried to tell Gu Fengyan that he bumped into the food delivery guy on the steps.

He hurriedly apologized and left again.

Zhao Sanniang was full of doubts... shook her head, and went to fiddle with the abacus again.
