The winter was cold. When Gu Daiyan woke up, it was still not bright outside the window.

The monks in the courtyard had all stood up to clean, while the abbot had already finished his meal and had gone to the temple.

Gu Zixian, who was next door to her, had yet to wake up. Only Alain came forward to pay his respects before leaving in a hurry. Gu Danyan walked into the hall alone, but she ran into Lady Gu, who was only dressed in plain clothes.

I didn't expect aunty to be such a pious person.

"You're pregnant, why are you up so early?" When Gu Ruoyun saw her, her face turned cold, and her tone became as hard as before.

"I just can't sleep, but I didn't expect aunty to be so pious towards Buddha." Gu Liuyan sat down and continued to let Qing Dai serve him food.

"Not my good-for-nothing daughter." Madam Gu was a little resentful, "I didn't expect you to help Zixu."

"It's just a united front." Gu Daiyan squeezed Qing Dai's shoulder lightly. Qing Dai, on the other hand, quickened her pace and quickly finished the food. Gu Daiyan left early and went to the medicine hall.

The Medicine Hall was located on the east side of the meditation room, but after walking for a distance, one would be able to arrive here after passing through the forest.

Unlike those monks, most of the doctors in the Medicine Hall were elderly people who lived in the towns below the mountains, and most of them did not want to live with their grandchildren. Most of them were of the grandfather generation, and would only play chess and read books when they had nothing better to do.

When Gu Danyan arrived, they were sitting around playing chess. Only the two young masters at the side heard the news and welcomed the two into the house, "I heard that Benefactor is also a doctor?"

"Yes, but it's been a long time since I've poured out the medicinal ingredients. I keep having this strange feeling, I wonder what kind of hospital is at the foot of the mountain?" Gu Danyan nodded.

The young master carefully examined her eyes, scratching his ears and not knowing how to reply.

On the other hand, Qing Dai had clearly seen the young master's expression. "Young master, although my young miss can't see it clearly, it's not a problem to open up the blood vessels."

"As such, it just so happens that the seniors are going to take a diagnosis in the afternoon. It seems to be winter, and many refugees have been living in sheds at the foot of the mountain." The young master hurriedly said, and then he added, "Amitabha."

"In that case, can you bring me along?" Gu Danyan raised his eyebrows.

The young master's eyes lit up as he hurriedly agreed. After muttering to himself for a long time, he finally left to get some people to prepare for him, afraid that this kind and pregnant female benefactor would bump into him.

After the young master left, Gu Danyan decided to just sit with the group of people from the grandpa generation.

Although he couldn't see them, hearing how the seniors talked about the game a few times was rather interesting.

However, neither of them noticed that around the corner behind them, the person dressed in black slightly narrowed his eyes.

The other ghost in black clothing beside him lowered his voice even though his face was covered, "My prince, since we have already followed them here, why don't we let them know?"

"I'm just afraid that she might do something else." Duan Chengxuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Gu Daiyan who had already gotten into a discussion with the group of seniors in just a short moment, and he actually felt a sense of unhappiness in his heart.

As long as he wasn't talking to Duan Chengxuan, Gu Danyan seemed to be smiling in such a manner to anyone.

"But what can the imperial concubine do if she can't see clearly? Could it be that Your Highness is overthinking it? " Phantom did not understand.

"This King was indeed overthinking it."

Duan Chengxuan closed his eyes and thought about it carefully. He had already sent people to follow by Gu Danyan's side for so long, but he still hadn't found any clues. It seemed like she had really overthought things.

"You usually stay by her side as a servant." Duan Chengxuan abruptly opened his eyes, then turned around and prepared to leave. "There's no need to constantly keep an eye on her, as long as she doesn't leave this duke's side, it's fine."

"This subordinate understands, but the success rate is twenty percent …"

"They have other things to do." Duan Cheng Xuan's gaze turned cold.

Now that the crown prince had been crippled, the entire imperial court was in chaos. Sixth Prince Duan Chengye had just fought off the foreign invaders at the border. If he were to return with a great victory, he would definitely be able to obtain the support of many.

Besides, in the imperial court, the Second Prince had a carefree appearance and needed to be vigilant. The Third Prince did not make a move, and it was unknown what he was doing in the dark. The Fourth Prince, Duan Chengyu, had already made clear that he wanted to make a stand and was the closest person to him so he should be trusted.

The Fifth Prince had an impulsive personality. Thinking about it, the Third Prince and the Second Prince in the imperial court needed him to be on guard.

However, he had somehow followed Gu Danyan to this sort of place.

Cheng Shan had followed Duan Chengxuan all the way down the mountain, and he now understood that Duan Chengxuan wasn't using Gu Liuyan as a surface advantage, but from the looks of it now, he might have already moved with sincerity.

"Your Highness, Prime Minister Gu doesn't know that we're here, do we need anyone to keep an eye on him?"

"There's no need. Princess will naturally keep an eye on him for Ben Wang."

Duan Chengxuan went down the mountain, jumped onto his horse, and Cheng Shan followed closely behind. Although he didn't understand, he didn't dare to continue asking.

As he passed by those refugees in winter, Duan Chengxuan had long since gotten used to it. The vast expanse of the Navy Tide terrain, however, was a cold and desolate land, yet it was extremely quiet here. These refugees wouldn't be able to survive in winter, so they came over.

"Send someone to perform, give me some silver." Duan Chengxuan gave a cursory glance, such a large amount.

If they were to stay here and wait for all of them to recover, they might not be willing to leave. When that time came, it would only delay their time.

He only had to wait three months for the child to take shape.

Gu Poyan, who was halfway up the mountain for no reason, felt his fingers go cold and he subconsciously shrunk his fingers.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Qingdai quickly moved closer.

"It's nothing. I just suddenly felt a bit cold. I don't know if something bad is about to happen." Gu Daiyan hugged her arms and apologized to the few seniors. She then followed Qing Dai to the room and sat down. After she held the warm water, she continued: "Gu Zixian has changed a lot these days."

"Alan sneaked into Mrs. Gu's room last night." "Young lady, are you sure you don't plan to stand by the side of the Prime Minister's Estate?"

"That Meng Xu can only serve me. Father already wanted to start a relationship with me, and now I think highly of him, as long as he doesn't cause trouble, then King Jing will naturally be able to protect him. However, if he wants to change his mind, King Jing will be the first one to take care of him." Gu Danyan looked up, and only stretched out his hand to look at his fingers: "I don't believe a single one of them. That's why I didn't tell them that my eyes had almost recovered."

The corners of Fairy Beauty's lips curled up. "But, aren't we going to continue acting this part?"

"Of course, since I came out this time, I must make Gu Zixian completely hate Su Yu Wan." Gu Danyan raised the corner of his mouth.

If a person did not commit suicide, then the heavens would be destroyed and the earth would be destroyed.
