Gu Mei sent Princess Su Xin and her party away, sent someone to Zhai's house to report the news, and then returned to Xiao Yuexuan.
She still had no idea what kind of medicine she had taken that day.
It had obviously been relieved that day, but now, more than half a month later, it was still coming back.
After walking and stopping along the way, it took a long time before Yingyue helped her back to Xiaoyuexuan.
Unfortunately, just as he was about to enter the house, he saw Xie Wen hurriedly coming in from outside.
As soon as they met, Xie Wen stared at her with a scrutinizing gaze: "I heard that Princess Su Xin came to visit today. Was it you who received her?"
"Oh. Mother said she wasn't feeling well, so she let me go. Husband, is there any problem?" Gu Mei brushed the broken hair around her ears and tightened her legs to prevent him from seeing anything strange.
"Let's hear what the princess said." Xie Wen spoke in a friendly tone and raised his hand to hold her shoulders.
After all, he was a grown man, and his strong aura hit his face, making his eyebrows filled with discomfort.
He subconsciously took a step back.
Xie Wen was unaware and took another step forward, while Gu Mei took another step back.
As if he realized something was wrong, Xie Wen frowned almost imperceptibly.
"you……"
Gu Mei frowned and said: "Isn't your husband on duty at the Yamen? Why did you come home so quickly? The princess didn't say anything else, she just said some words of apology."
Wasn't it possible that she was returning home in such a hurry because she was afraid that she would meet Princess Su Xin and both of them would say something they shouldn't have said.
Xie Wen pursed his lips, looked stern, and was too embarrassed to continue asking.
She wanted to accompany Gu Mei into the house, but Gu Mei ordered her to be kicked out again: "It takes a lot of effort to entertain guests. I'm tired. My husband should go back to the Yamen and be on duty."
Xie Wen pursed his lips, Gu Mei didn't know anything here, and indeed couldn't find anything, so she might as well go to Su Xin and ask.
Seeing the person disappear outside the door, Gu Mei's knees weakened and she almost fell to the ground.
"Young Madam..."
Gu Mei leaned on Yingyue and entered the house. She leaned on the couch and asked Yingyue to have someone bring water in.
Soon, the clothes on his body were soaked with sweat.
No wonder Helan Yan said categorically that she would beg him.
Therefore, he knew what kind of drug he was drugged with.
Gu Mei closed her eyes tightly and soaked in the cold well water. Yingyue clapped her legs anxiously, "Young madam, it's not a problem to have to endure it all this time. Why don't you go out quietly to find the doctor to get medicine?"
Yingyue and Gu Mei grew up together. Although they were servants to their master, they were actually sisters. How could they not feel anxious when they saw how difficult she was?
She didn't dare to persuade Gu Mei to find Helan Yan, but she thought it would be okay to grab some medicine to relieve the problem.
Gu Mei was soaking in the water, her face turned slightly pale, she gasped slightly and said softly: "It's useless."
Besides, how should Yingyue tell the doctor about her symptoms?
Yingyue also knew that the medicine prescribed by ordinary doctors would be useless, but she couldn't just let her young lady find other men.
Once again, Yingyue cursed everyone in the Hou family, especially Xie Wen.
Seeing Gu Mei soaking for a long time, Yingyue urged Gu Mei to come up, but without thinking, Gu Mei became cruel and ordered: "Good Yue'er, go get another bucket of well water."
Yingyue naturally refused, but she also knew that her master was stubborn and had a bad temper. It was useless to persuade him, so he had to carry a bucket to fetch water.
After a while, the door of the bathroom was pushed open. Gu Mei turned her back to the door. When she heard light footsteps, she immediately said: "Yingyue, pour the water in quickly."
For a while, there was no reply.
Then I heard a low and angry voice: "Gu Xueying, you don't want to die. You are soaking in the well water like this."
Gu Mei was startled, then ashamed. She hurriedly tried to find something to cover her body, but a long, slender hand had already reached out and penetrated her armpit.
"You... Helan Yan, what are you doing here... barging into the courtier's wife's boudoir in broad daylight? You are so shameless."
He Lanyan pursed her lips tightly and let out a laugh.
"Yes. Gu is that shameless bad seed, dressed like a beast, a sanctimonious hypocrite."
After that, he took her out of the tub, casually pulled off the clothes on the hanger and wrapped her up.
Gu Mei was held in his arms, unable to move even if she wanted to. Her eyes stared at him helplessly and anxiously, like a rabbit caught in the clutches of a beast.
The atmosphere is stalemate and ambiguous.
He Lanyan's throat rolled, she lowered her face, and her deep voice was like a tender knife cutting through the apex of her heart.
"It's obvious that my husband is here, why don't you go find him? But you have to endure it by yourself."
Gu Mei's mind was in a state of confusion. She didn't expect that Helan Yan would dare to barge into her bedroom during the day.
How dare he. Aren't you afraid that others will see it?
The heat that had been suppressed by the cold water started to gain momentum again after entering Helan Yan's arms.
Gu Mei quickly supported his chest and struggled to get off the ground.
"let me go."
she shouted softly.
He Lanyan sneered and didn't answer. He carried her out of the bathroom, turned and walked towards the bedroom.
"Helan Banquet..."
Gu Mei's words hadn't left her mouth yet, but she was stopped by him.
"Shh..." He came closer to her eyes, touching her forehead, staring at her with a bit of anger.
"I don't want to listen to you right now."
He gritted his teeth and threw the person in his arms onto the couch.
