Chapter 375 Mutual Engagement Mentality
Gu Yun was originally very confident in today's arrangement. After all, every step was as he arranged, and his expectations were gone step by step. Mu Yun was led near the exit of the palace wall, and Gu Yi and Jun Jiuning were also led to that place as scheduled.
As long as his people surrounded the alley at this time, no matter whether the group of people who followed Gu Yi could solve these three people, he would be the winner.
It can even be said that this arrangement is a sure win but not a loss.
But he underestimated Mu Yun's methods. Even though Mu Yun only went to Wuyin Temple to make an appointment, he arranged so many people, which led to some of Gu Yun's people being held back and failed to arrive in time and caught the three people on the spot.
But when his people arrived again, only a corpse was found there, and they were all their own people!
It is definitely fake to say that he is not annoyed, but Gu Yun guessed that Jun Jiuning, Gu Yi, and Mu Yun must have met.
But what does Jun Jiuning mean now?
The group of people he sent to follow Gu Yi was cleaned up by another group of secret guards?
Jun Jiuning thought that he had sent the group of secret guards to protect the other party?!
Gu Yun couldn't tell whether Jun Jiuning was telling the truth or the lies.
If what Jun Jiuning said was true, then the group of people who suddenly appeared must have been arranged by Mu Yun!
How did they avoid the many eyeliners in the palace and keep protecting Jun Jiuning?!
And since there are a group of people who specialize in protecting Jun Jiuning, are there any other people in the palace who were inserted by Mu Yun, who he doesn't know about?!
Gu Yun suddenly became alert in his heart, and his eyes looked at Jun Jiuning with deeper doubts and fears.
What if she was telling a lie? Then what did Mu Yun reveal to her? What was the purpose of her bringing Gu Yi back this time?
A faint feeling of anxiety gradually arose in Gu Yun's heart, took an ambiguous answer, and asked as calmly and naturally: "What? I haven't received the news yet, the princess and the emperor actually encountered an unexpected accident outside the palace?"
Jun Jiuning sneered in his heart. Knowing that Gu Yun had taken the bait, he continued to act and pretended to be a little surprised: "So those people can't enter the palace? Your Highness is really mean, but since your Highness can arrange such capable secret guards, it's better to arrange more people to follow the emperor. Even in the palace, there are sometimes many crises."
Gu Yun's eyes flashed slightly, and he chuckled: "Princess is a misunderstanding of this king. How can I claim the credit of Lord Mu? Don't misunderstand the princess' gratitude."
When Jun Jiuning heard this, his fingers hidden in his sleeves tightened slightly, and then smiled and said, "Those people were arranged by Lord Mu? Don't joke anymore. If Lord Mu had this leisure and leisure, he wouldn't have sent me into the palace."
After saying that, she pretended to be lonely and sighed: "Mr. Mu originally sent me to the Liang Palace because he thought I was troublesome and prone to causing trouble. How could he spend this effort to protect me?"
As she said that, she suddenly realized something, and looked at Gu Yun with a slight surprise. Her acting skills at that moment were as good as if she could win the Oscars: "Can you not be able to make the group of people arranged by Your Highness to speak out? Then I am really a sin. Why not pretend that I have never said it?"
Gu Yun:?
Is Jun Jiuning a fool? Can such a clumsy excuse be used to fulfill his own words?
Moreover, the meaning of her words to relieve Mu Yun just now can be heard by others even if they are eight hundred miles away!
Could it be that Mu Yun really arranged a group of people to take care of Jun Jiuning?
Several judgments on this matter flashed through Gu Yun's mind, but he suddenly remembered: Isn't the easiest and most direct way to ask Gu Yi?
Gu Yi, a child, would never have as many scruples as Jun Jiuning.
Thinking of another solution, Gu Yunxin calmed down and said to Jun Jiuning: "It's good that the princess understands it. You and I can understand this kind of thing. Please don't mention it to others in the future."
Jun Jiuning: Yo, I’m ready.
But in front of the other party, she still honestly said: "I will naturally remember the instructions of His Highness the Regent."
She deliberately prolonged her voice, which sounded a bit sarcastic, and Gu Yun was too lazy to pay attention to her: "I guess the medicine from the Imperial Hospital will also be sent to the princess's hall. Someone will come and send the princess back to Xiangning Hall."
After saying that, before Jun Jiuning reacted, Gu Yun reached out and held Jun Jiuning's back and turned the other party around, causing the other party to look towards the gate of Mingqing Palace: "If the princess is concerned about the emperor, when he wakes up, I will send someone to invite the princess immediately. Now I will ask the princess to return to the palace to rest and recuperate."
Jun Jiuning: “…Okay.”
However, just as Jun Jiuning took two steps, Gu Yun suddenly called her and said, "Princess, don't forget to drink the medicine well."
Jun Jiuning suddenly felt a bad feeling.
Soon, she knew where this bad feeling came from.
The people who came with the decoctions from the Imperial Hospital were also from Gu Yun’s men.
He didn't completely believe in Jun Jiuning, so he let Jun Jiuning feel the oppression that he was stared at all times and that every move would be known by Gu Yun.
Gu Yun reminded her: This is the Chu Palace, and it is the place where he decides it.
Jun Jiuning looked at the bowl of black soup in front of her, which was sour and bitter, and was very suspicious whether Gu Yun was poisoning her in it.
Because she knows too much.
But someone was staring at you and advised warmly: "Princess, the injury on your hand was suffered because of saving the emperor. Your Highness the Regent gave an order, so we must watch you drink medicine and recuperate, otherwise how can the emperor feel at ease? You don't want to leave a secret disease, and it also makes the emperor feel guilty, right?"
Jun Jiuning felt speechless, and she restrained her desire to roll her eyes hard, and finally pinched her nose and obediently drank the medicine.
The soup was astringent, bitter and sour. Jun Jiuning put down the bowl and contained several pieces of candied fruit before suppressing the bitter taste on the tongue.
While chewing the sticky and sweet candied fruit hard, she thought to herself: No matter what, if Gu Yun’s grandson really hurts her, Mu Yun’s medical skills can at least save her life?
Coincidentally, at the same time, Mu Yun also took a bowl of hot medicine handed over by his subordinates, and then blew it all in one sip.
Yan Shibayi looked virtuous and looked at the bowl of medicine being drunk without a drop. The two tightly twisted eyebrows were stretched out. However, seeing Mu Yun pressing the corners of his lips with a veil and picking up a secret letter to read it, he couldn't help but persuade: "Sir, you have suffered such a serious injury, you should rest well."
