Clouds and Moon Shadow

Chapter 281 My sister is indeed an extraordinary woman

"You want to put three... his sacks on?" Gu Yuanen's legs went weak this time.

This little sister is such a troublemaker! She dares to mess with anyone.

"Are you going or not? If not, I'll go by myself!" Gu Qingyue turned around.

"and many more!"

Two quarters of an hour later.

The two of them crouched down on the roof of a restaurant opposite the building, with Yu Mo crouching behind them.

Looking at the open window on the second floor across the street, there were Yue Zhiqi, the woman, and the Fifth Prince and his group.

Surprisingly, even though dinner time had long passed, these people were still together.

That's good, it makes it easier for her to do it. It would be more troublesome to go to the post station where the Nanzhao envoys were staying.

Luckily, she sent a message to Yu Mo to follow them when she went back in the afternoon. Now it's easy to find them. Hehe, just wait for the beating from your grandma!

Half an hour later, the group finally came downstairs, and Gu Qingyue was almost asleep.

Seeing the Fifth Prince and his entourage part ways with Yue Zhiqi, Gu Qingyue excitedly jumped off the roof and followed Yue Zhiqi's carriage towards the post station.

Yue Zhiqi and the woman rode in separate carriages, which conveniently made it easier for Gu Qingyue to make her move.

As the carriage turned a corner at a narrow intersection, the woman's carriage had just rounded the bend. Gu Qingyue scattered a handful of medicinal powder, and the three guards beside Yue Zhiqi's carriage immediately fell into a drowsy state.

With a gesture from Gu Qingyue, Gu Yuanen and Yu Mo, their hands covered with cloths, rushed over at top speed and kicked the men off their horses.

When Yue Zhiqi, who was somewhat drunk, heard the commotion inside the carriage, Gu Qingyue had already leaped into the carriage.

In a single glance, a handful of medicinal powder and a burlap sack appeared. Yue Zhiqi used his wide sleeves to block out a lot of the powder, but his eyes were somewhat glazed. When the burlap sack was put on him, he was completely stunned!

He had never been treated like this before. He wanted to curse, but a fist came flying at his face. He saw stars and couldn't utter a sound.

Inside the carriage, Gu Qingyue slapped her hand repeatedly, while simultaneously unleashing a string of curses in English, disguised in her voice.

Hehehe, I bet he couldn't figure out who did it even if he racked his brains!

After a good beating, Gu Qingyue felt better.

Leaving behind a few dazed guards, the three men strode away.

"What are you made of, little sister?" Back at the Duke's mansion, Gu Yuanen sat at the stone table and gave a thumbs-up repeatedly.

Gu Qingyue raised her chin, her tone indifferent, "Don't be obsessed with me, I'm not someone you mortals can reach." After saying that, she tossed her hair behind her.

Gu Yuanen choked, his mouth twitching violently. "You're getting out of breath just because I said you're fat!"

"Will everything be alright?"

Gu Yuanen thought about it and still felt that something bad would happen, after all, he had beaten up the envoy who came to negotiate peace, and he was even the prince of Nanzhao.

He wasn't afraid of trouble, but he was worried that it would implicate the Duke's mansion.

"It's nothing," Gu Qingyue said, running her fingers through her hair. "I just cursed a few times in English, how was he supposed to guess?"

"Eagle script?" Gu Yuanen asked, puzzled.

"Oh, it was Dr. You who taught me. He said it was a foreign language that most people don't speak," Gu Qingyue continued combing her hair.

Gu Yuanen was even more surprised when he heard this, "Your master even taught you to swear in a foreign language?"

"Cough cough cough------" Gu Qingyue was speechless: Brother, you know it's a foreign language, why did you have to ask? Why is your brain so sharp?

"I'm going to sleep now. Let's keep this a secret between us. Don't tell your three older brothers, okay?" Gu Qingyue stood up and made her escape in a second.

Gu Yuanen shook his head and sighed: My sister is indeed an extraordinary woman; she's much bolder than others!

He had originally wanted to ask how badly Yue Zhiqi had been beaten, but when he saw Gu Qingyue yawning as she entered the house, he decided against it.

Whatever, I've already beaten them all up, time to go back to sleep!

The next morning, Gu Qingyue got up as energetic as ever. After doing a set of exercises and washing up, she took her first-aid kit to the main courtyard.

On the way, they ran into the brothers who were going to the main courtyard, as well as their sister-in-law Wei and Tang Ge'er who had returned yesterday.

Everyone greeted each other with smiles.

"Auntie," Tang Ge'er looked at Gu Qingyue with his big, bright eyes, overjoyed.

His aunt gave him lots of fun gifts, and he loves this aunt who is as beautiful as a fairy!

"Little guy, did you thank your aunt properly? Your aunt gave you so many gifts yesterday!" Gu Yuanjin hugged Tang Ge'er, pinched his little face, and asked.

Watching the interaction between the father and son, Gu Qingyue thought to herself, "Who said that people in ancient times preferred to hold their grandchildren rather than their sons? Look how affectionately this father is holding his son!"

My brother is a good man, that's for sure.

The group entered the main courtyard in a grand procession and immediately spotted Granny Zhou standing next to Cui Shuming.

Gu Qingyue looked at her curiously, and she nodded and curtsied to Gu Qingyue in a very kind manner.

This must be the Granny Zhou that Madam Qin was referring to.

She used to serve her grandmother, who came from the Qingyun Princess's Mansion and was titled Princess Huian.

The maidservant brought by Princess Hui'an naturally came from the Princess's residence. She was a nanny who had served in the palace and was extremely familiar with palace rules.

Later, her grandmother passed away due to illness, and she went to live with her grandfather, Shimo. When she got old, she went to live on the estate of the Duke's mansion to retire.

This time, for Gu Qingyue's sake, Qin invited her back again.

Once inside, Madam Qin introduced Granny Zhou and Gu Qingyue to her, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

It's good that Granny Zhou doesn't seem like the rigid type of person.

After finishing the meal, the most important thing to do first is to expel the Gu worms from Qin Shi.

This matter was known only to Gu Qingyue, her grandfather and four older brothers, as well as Cui Shuming and Butler Qiu.

So, after dismissing all the servants, Gu Qingyue went into the inner room alone.

Qin lay on the bed, her eyes red-rimmed, on the verge of tears again.

Gu Qingyue felt both annoyed and amused. Her mother really loved to cry and was too emotional, but now was not the time to cry.

"Mom, don't worry, it won't hurt," Gu Qingyue said, opening the medicine box and pulling out all the layers, creating a stepped effect.

All the necessary silver needles, hemostatic powder, and deworming pills were ready. Now, the crucial moment had arrived.

"Mother is not afraid of pain, but it will be hard on Yue'er," Qin said softly.

"Mother, don't worry, have you forgotten that I'm the little miracle doctor?" Gu Qingyue pretended to be relaxed, with a slightly smug expression.

Madam Qin immediately laughed and tapped Gu Qingyue's forehead with her hand, truly wondering how her daughter had become so mischievous.

Once Gu Qingyue gets absorbed in something, her expression becomes solemn.

She first used silver needles to put Qin to sleep. She could have left her asleep, but fearing that she might be frightened by the Gu worms, she still used silver needles to prick her sleep acupoint.

Afterwards, the silver needles were soaked in a pre-prepared medicinal solution and inserted into the corresponding acupoints.

Half an hour later, Gu Qingyue used a dagger to cut a small incision on Qin's left index finger, and blood immediately flowed out.
