Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 73 White-Eyed Wolf

Wen Shubai thought about what he had just said. So, was it his words that made her misunderstand?

Hearing Gu Qingyuan's apology, he quickly said, "Young Master, there's no need to apologize to me. I feel really happy in the Gu family, much happier than when I was in the palace."

If she could give him a little care, he would be happier.

However, he did not say this to Gu Qingyuan.

He added, "My father also suffered from insomnia before, and later asked the imperial physician to prescribe medicine. How about I go to the palace tomorrow to ask my father for a prescription for insomnia, and then ask Chunfen to get some medicine for you?"

"That's not necessary. I feel like it would be too much trouble for you."

Gu Qingyuan was just saying it casually. How could she have insomnia? She was the type of person who could fall asleep as soon as she touched the pillow. Moreover, she had been so busy these past two days that she felt like she didn't get enough sleep every day.

"No trouble, no trouble." Wen Shubai said it twice in a row, looking at her expectantly.

"The medicine prescribed by the imperial physician in the palace is really effective. My father never suffered from insomnia again after taking the medicine."

"There's really no need to trouble you, or Takashi-kun."

Even if she really has insomnia and is exhausted after practicing martial arts at night, why would she need to take medicine if she could just go to sleep directly?

Seeing that she refused again and again, Wen Shubai had no choice but to give up.

The night wind blew in from outside the door, and the raindrops hit the mosquitoes "pa, pa".

In a short while, he killed several of them.

Wen Shubai asked curiously, "What has the young master been busy with recently? Is it something related to the academy?"

Gu Qingyuan shook her head. "That's not the case. The academy is not bad either. The homework isn't too much."

"Then no matter how busy you are, Young Master, you must remember to take a good rest."

"it is good."

The surroundings fell into silence, with only the sound of raindrops hitting mosquitoes being particularly noticeable.

Gu Qingyuan thought for a moment and said, "Yushui, go find some mugwort tomorrow and add sandalwood powder to it. This way it can repel mosquitoes at night."

Wen Shubai was a little surprised to hear her words. Mugwort and sandalwood powder actually have such effects?

Gu Qingyuan didn't notice Wen Shubai's surprised expression and continued to talk to the rain: "By the way, you need more mugwort leaves than sandalwood powder. This way it will be more effective."

Yu Shui quickly memorized Gu Qingyuan's words, and then asked cautiously, "Do you only need mugwort and sandalwood powder?"

Gu Qingyuan replied: "Yes, or you can come to my courtyard tomorrow. Chunfen knows what to do, you can ask her."

Yu Shui asked Wen Shubai for his opinion, but when he looked over, he found that their master's eyes were almost glued to the young master, and he didn't even notice that he was looking at him.

The master was completely focused on the young mistress, but she seemed not to notice. As a bystander, he was really anxious.

As the night deepened, Gu Qingyuan stood up and stretched. "It's getting late. I have to go back."

Wen Shubai reluctantly withdrew his gaze from her and stood up.

After he watched Gu Qingyuan go back, he stood in the yard and felt a little lonely.

……

The Queen sent two more guards to guard the Academy of Classics. She took the last fire in the Academy of Classics very seriously.

After being tortured, the third princess lay in her bedroom looking dying.

The father of the third princess was also a noble prince. Seeing her daughter being tortured into such a miserable state, she felt so distressed that she almost cried.

He sat beside the bed, holding the medicine in his hand, and asked the palace maid to help the third princess up and feed her the medicine.

The Third Princess overturned the medicine in his hand, and the scalding hot medicine spilled on his body, staining his gorgeous palace clothes.

He opened his mouth and kept saying "ah" and "ah", but couldn't say a word.

When the third princess saw her father in this state, she felt even more disgusted and pushed him away with all her strength.

"You dumb idiot, leave me alone."

When Yun Guijun heard his daughter calling him mute, he stood up again and gestured with his hands.

"You should drink the medicine first, so that the injury can heal faster."

But the third princess could not understand what he was gesturing, and just looked at him with disgust. Perhaps it was because her father-consort was mute and he was not liked by her mother, so she could not become the princess.

She leaned against the bed with her eyes closed.

"I don't want to see you, go away."

Yun Guijun squatted on the ground, picking up the pieces of the broken bowl. The maid Hehua beside the Third Princess squatted down and said, "Guijun, you should go back first. I will clean up these pieces."

He shook his head and lowered his head to pick up the fragments.

Hehua had no choice but to pick up the fragments with him. When the ground was cleaned up, Yun Guijun stood up, and the medicine stain on his body was particularly obvious.

"Lotus, send this mute out."

She was even unwilling to call him father. Fortunately, Yun Guijun was used to it. When he heard the words of the third princess, his eyes darkened and he looked a little lost when he turned around.

After sending the man away, the Third Princess seemed to calm down a little and asked Lotus: "Is he gone?"

Lotus nodded and said, "Your Excellency has returned to Yunxia Palace."

The third princess curled her lips. Ever since she could remember, she had heard the palace servants secretly talking about her, saying that her father was a mute who could only speak with "ah" and "ah".

I heard that someone had his tongue pulled out, but she didn't want to care about it.

After Yun Guijun returned to Yunxia Palace, the eunuchs serving him saw him like this and quickly took him to change his clothes. His legs were already burned red.

The eunuch asked, "Is it the Third Princess who did this again?"

Yun Guijun gestured: "She's just in a bad mood, don't blame her."

The eunuch sneered and tried to persuade him again.

"It was you who picked her up from outside the palace and raised her as your own daughter. And if it weren't for her careless words that offended others, how could you, Your Majesty,..."

Because he pleaded for her, his tongue was pulled out and he became like this.

The eunuch couldn't bear to continue talking.

Yun Guijun had been pregnant before. He wanted a daughter so much that he took many medicines. But when he found out that he was carrying a stillbirth, he was heartbroken.

Later, he found a baby girl outside the palace and brought her home to raise as his own daughter.

The stillborn baby he gave birth to was buried in his Yunxia Palace.

After changing his clothes, Yun Guijun sat in the yard again, wondering what he was thinking about.

His stillborn baby was buried under a tree. He would come to check it out occasionally, but he didn't know much about it.

Only the eunuch Mo beside him knew everything.

Precisely because he knew everything, Eunuch Mo felt that the Third Princess was an ungrateful person.

It was Yun Guijun who picked her up and raised her. Not only was she not grateful to Yun Guijun, she also despised him for being mute.
