Chapter 32 Jiang Zhi's Plan
Chapter 32 Jiang Zhi's Plan
"Qinghuai, why do you think I would let Old Han open a clinic outside?"
Gu Liang smiled and said, "You are loyal to me, regard me as your master, and put me first in everything, but to a doctor, I am just one of his many patients."
"As long as you put your heart into it, that's good enough."
“Yes,” Qinghuai wanted to retort.
Gu Liang glanced at him and said, "Go downstairs. If Bai Wuyou comes back, tell him to finish his meal before coming to see me."
Qinghuai responded and went out.
The main courtyard at this time.
Jiang Zhigang had just finished washing up and returned from outside at noon.
She pushed open the door and entered, just in time to see Jiang Zhi sitting in a chair.
"Your Highness, as you instructed, the Silk Clothes Shop made several sets of clothes for Young Master Wengu. When Young Master Wengu wore them, he truly lived up to his reputation as a peerless and handsome man."
Jiang Zhi smiled slightly, picked up the candied fruit on the table, and took a few bites.
"This young master Wen Gu is a talented young man in Luozhou. He has a first-class figure and appearance. Countless women have been infatuated with him."
After finishing the candied fruit in her hand, she asked, "How's the situation with Xiangyi going?"
"And what's going on with the Liu family?"
Noon nodded, turned around and closed the door, returned to Jiang Zhi's side, and filled the plate of candied fruit on Jiang Zhi's plate.
"Xiangyi's younger sister, Xiangran, killed many pregnant women for the sake of her so-called beauty. She used their unborn children to make medicine to keep herself young forever. She was later arrested by the government and imprisoned. They were originally scheduled to be executed in the autumn."
"I heard that the government of Lanqiao City released her after receiving a letter, and she is now on her way to Yanjing."
"This servant does not understand, why would someone come to Yanjing after being released?"
Jiang Zhi smiled slightly, "It's rather strange that a death row inmate requires the powerful figures of Yanjing to take action."
"But it's all good. If we can kill her in Yanjing, it will be quite a show."
At noon, he said, "I understand what Your Highness means. It is no pity that such a person, who has caused so much harm to people, has died."
At noon, he reached out and handed a slip of paper to Jiang Zhi.
"Your Highness, look, these are some things about Xiangyi's entry into Zuiyu Tower."
Jiang Zhi took the secret letter, opened it, glanced at it, and sneered, "How interesting. This Xiangyi is truly a devoted woman."
"However, she is only sixteen years old and has only been in Zuiyu Tower for half a year."
Jiang Zhi moved the letter in her hand to the candle flame and burned it to powder.
At noon, she said again, "This servant went to Zuiyu Tower and found out that Xiangyi already knows about the eldest young master's matter, but has not reacted at all. It seems that she and Liu have almost completed their deal."
"However, it is said that the deeds to the dowry and the land deeds to the shops that the eldest son took are still in her hands. Now that Xiangran has been released, why are her land deeds and dowry still kept?"
Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "Lanqiao City is far from Yanjing. Xiangyi is worried that the information is wrong and wants to see Xiangran in person to believe that Liu Shi really did not lie to her."
Jiang Zhi picked up another candied fruit and stood up from her chair.
"At noon, change your clothes and come out with me. We need to give Young Master Wen a few instructions."
"Yes, princess."
After changing her clothes, Jiang Zhi led Wu Shi out through the side door.

"What is this?"
Inside the study of Yangzhi Courtyard in the Liang Prince's Mansion, two identical exquisite wooden boxes were placed in front of Gu Liang.
He opened one of the boxes, saw what was inside, and smiled brightly, "You went out so early just to queue up at Weijian?"
The box contained a white porcelain cup filled with a milky white solid, sprinkled with soybean powder, and decorated with a few osmanthus petals.
"This Osmanthus Milk Pastry from Weijian is a delicacy in the capital. What, do you like it?" Gu Liang asked the person who delivered the box.
Bai Wuyou looked around and said, "I heard you got married. This is a congratulatory gift."
Gu Liang chuckled lightly, "Giving me things from Kyoto? Does your Medicine Ghost Valley have nothing left to give away?"
Bai Wuyou said, "I only learned of your marriage last night."
I've heard that women love sweets.
Gu Liang took out a porcelain cup from the box. "So, this is for the Princess?"
"Did you consummate your marriage?" Bai Wuyou asked, seemingly unrelated to the question.
Gu Liang glanced at him but did not answer.
Bai Wuyou pulled Gu Liang's wrist and lifted her sleeve.
Why is this still the case?
"You know it's all useless," Gu Liang said calmly.
Bai Wuyou said, "Shouldn't this method help you release some of the toxins?"
Gu Liang sneered, "Bai Wuyou, from the moment you started treating me, you knew my lifespan was short."
"Why take other people's lives?"
Bai Wuyou paused for a moment, "For His Highness the Prince of Liang to show such pity, how can outsiders bear to see this?"
"Besides, she is not an innocent person either."
"So what?" Gu Liang said.
“If you convict someone based on mere suspicion, I wouldn’t have saved the lives of twenty-five people from Yao Guigu back then.”
Bai Wuyou lowered her head, "Then why did you marry her?"
"She might be a threat to you."
Gu Liang picked up the bowl of milk pastry in front of her, smelled it, and asked, "What did you add?"
Bai Wuyou narrowed his eyes slightly, "If you consummate your marriage with her, you can last longer after eating her."
Gu Liang sighed, "Bai Wuyou, although you are still young, you are almost twenty."
Bai Wuyou's eyebrows drooped slightly.
"I've told you before, everyone has their own path, and no one can interfere."
"You will understand the truth when you come of age."
Bai Wuyou insisted, "I am your doctor."
"You are my doctor, so you just need to focus on curing my illness. You don't need to care about anyone else or have any ideas."
Bai Wuyou remained expressionless, but her eyes were stubborn. "I only use poison."
"Poison can also heal people."
Gu Liang opened another box of milk crisps. "A doctor's purpose is to save lives, and you understand that better than I do."
Bai Wuyou remained silent for a long time.
Gu Liang pointed to the food boxes, "The queues in Weijian are hard to get through, don't tell me you've put something in both boxes."
Bai Wuyou's eyes flickered slightly. "Smell it for yourself."
Gu Liang smiled, raising her lips slightly.
He patted Bai Wuyou on the shoulder and placed the food box in front of him. "Old Han has been waiting for you. Remember to go see him."
After dismissing Bai Wuyou, a hint of gloom flashed in Gu Liang's eyes.
Looking at the bowl of milk pastry in front of him, he thought of the one in the main courtyard.
He summoned a guard, "Is there any movement from the Princess's side?"
The guard reported, "The princess has gone out."
"go out?"
What is she going out to do again?
Gu Liang lowered her eyes.
He handed over the bowl of milk custard laced with the drug, saying, "Go and get rid of it; it's poisoned."
"Yes." The guard carefully held the bowl.

Jiang Zhihe's carriage stopped at Wen Guzhuyu's inn at noon.
Pushing open the door to the private room on the second floor, one sees a man dressed in a royal blue robe embroidered with peonies and gold brocade sitting in a chair.
The man had delicate features, a pair of amorous peach blossom eyes, and a faint smile on his face.
Even Wu Shi, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Miss."
Upon seeing Jiang Zhi arrive, Wen Guzhu immediately stood up from his chair and respectfully bowed to Jiang Zhi.
However, it was only then that he saw Jiang Zhi's true face.
The little girl had a classic oval face, bright eyes, a round nose, and two shallow dimples on her cheeks when she pursed her lips slightly.
Jiang Zhi immediately stopped him when he bowed.
