Chapter 1079: Release from prison and wash away the dust

Seeing Bai Ruozhu like this, Mu Yu couldn't help but shudder, but she still reminded him rudely: "Master, Zhou Jue is good at using poison."

Bai Ruozhu gave him a big look and said, "Zhou Jue is good at using poison, but is he good at detoxifying it? He himself can resist poison, but what about his subordinates? Cutting off Zhou Jue's hands and feet can be considered a help. Give Zhou Rui a hand."

She said and smiled mischievously, "Of course, we do good deeds without leaving our names behind."

Jian Qi looked at him with a serious face, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart: Master, do you dare to be thicker-skinned?

Bai Ruozhu soon came up with a way. She ordered a few people to guard outside, while she went back to the house to start tinkering. About two hours later, she handed a medicine bottle to Jian Qi.

"Find a way to throw the medicine inside into the yard where Zhou Jue and the others live, so that they don't find your traces." Bai Ruozhu said.

Jian Qi hesitated, "Master, if someone discovers the pills, they may be traced to us."

"Don't worry, the pills will evaporate soon. Even if Zhou Jue finds out, he won't be able to find strong evidence." Bai Ruozhu said confidently.

Jian Qi nodded, then collected the medicine bottle and quickly disappeared into the night.

He carefully lurked near the hotel and found an opportunity to throw a few pills into the hotel. He also observed carefully for a while, but unfortunately it was too dark and he couldn't see clearly how the pills would change.

The pills evaporated quickly, and people who walked into the yard would inhale toxic gases. However, the poison was chronic, so no one noticed it.

Zhou Jue spent the whole night thinking about countermeasures and did not leave the house, so he did not find that anyone had been poisoned in the courtyard. Early the next morning, his breakfast was also brought into the house. Why would he go out for a walk with a bruised nose and a swollen face?

When he opened the door, he seemed to smell an unusual smell, but it had been all night and it was really light. Although he had some doubts, he could not find the problem.

…

In the Bai Mansion, Gu Xue'an came early in the morning to learn accounting from Bai Ruozhu, and gave Bai Ruozhu a set of noodles when he entered.

"My mother sent this to you. Thanks to you delivering the message this time, my father has made great achievements in front of the emperor." Gu Xu'an said with a smile.

Bai Ruozhu hurriedly pushed the mirror box back, "It's my turn to thank Mr. Gu, otherwise we wouldn't be able to give advice, and my husband wouldn't be able to get away with it. It's Mr. Gu who helped us a lot."

Gu Xue'an refused to take it back, "Then you are not looking for someone, but for my father, he also won praise from the emperor for this. According to the emperor's wishes, he should be allowed to stay in the capital."

"This is a good thing. We can get together often. It will be easier for you to go back to your parents' home when you get married." Bai Ruozhu said with a look of relief.

Gu Xue'an's face was so red that it reached her neck. Why did she get married again?

When she thought of getting married, she couldn't help but think of Lin Xufei. She didn't know how he was doing now.

Finally, Bai Ruozhu accepted the mask and said, "When Ah Chun's matter calms down, we will definitely visit him in a few days to say thank you."

"There's no need to say thank you. It's only right for you to come together as guests. We've agreed that we won't deny it when the time comes." Gu Xu'an said with a smile.

At this time, the maid outside spread the news that Ji Bingqin was coming to visit.

Bai Ruozhu curled her lips secretly, "Invite her in."

Gu Xue'an hurriedly looked at Bai Ruozhu and asked in a low voice, "Is she the woman rumored outside?"

Bai Ruozhu gave her an angry look, "Don't listen to what people outside are saying, she's just an orphan living here."

Gu Xue'an nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

At this time Ji Bingqin walked in, with a look of surprise on her face, and said softly: "It turns out that my sister-in-law has a guest here, and I took the liberty of disturbing her. I wonder what I call this lady?"

Gu Xue'an didn't like her very much and said coldly: "My surname is Gu."

After that, she didn't say her name, let alone who she was from. The smile on Ji Bingqin's face froze, and she said with some embarrassment: "Hello, Miss Gu, my little girl Ji Bingqin."

Gu Xu'an said yes and stopped talking. Bai Ruozhu was snickering next to her. She couldn't bear to be treated like this. She suppressed her laughter and said, "Miss Ji, please sit down and talk."

Ji Bingqin thanked her and sat next to Gu Xue'an. As soon as she sat down, she praised Gu Xue'an's hair accessories and skirt. Her compliments were very skillful. Bai Ruozhu felt that if she hadn't always disliked Ji Bingqin, she would have been so complimented. This girl has a crush on her.

Gu Xu'an's complexion improved a little, but she just felt that she would not hit the smiling person, but she did not have a good impression of Ji Bingqin because of it, but Ji Bingqin's eyes were bright, and she seemed to feel that she and Gu Xu'an were getting closer.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Gu Xue'an stood up and said goodbye. The two of them often went back and forth, and Bai Ruozhu would not see her off politely. Instead, Ji Bingqin also stood up and said, "I happened to be leaving, so I'll see Miss Gu off." .”

Gu Xuean glanced at her lightly, did Ji Bingqin regard herself as her master?

Bai Ruozhu shook her head slightly at Gu Xue'an, signaling her not to argue with Ji Bingqin.

After the two of them left together, Bai Ruozhu's smile became more sarcastic and asked the maid outside: "How did Miss Ji get here?"

Xiao Shi said hurriedly: "She talked about taking a walk in the garden, and then saw Miss Gu from a distance, and asked the slave girl for a few words. The slave girl only said that she was a young lady from the Gu family, and she didn't dare to say anything else."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, rewarded Xiao Shi with some silver, and asked her to continue serving Ji Bingqin.

It seems that Ji Bingqin doesn't necessarily know Gu Xuean's identity, she just wants to show her face, but what makes Ji Bingqin so confident about winning the favor of her friend?

After a while, Mu Yu came back and reported, "Madam, Zhou Jue was sent out of the capital by Zhou Rui. In the courtyard of the hotel, Zhou Rui gave Zhou Jue a good rest."

"Oh? The masters around Zhou Rui are quite powerful, aren't they?" Bai Ruozhu raised his eyebrows.

"They are two black flag guards from the Emperor of Chengshui Kingdom. Zhou Jue was quite surprised that his father sent the black flag guards to Zhou Rui." Mu Yu said.

The Black Flag Guards are the personal guards under the direct control of Emperor Chengshui. Just like the shadow guards of Emperor Danliang, they are extremely powerful in martial arts and absolutely loyal to the emperor. The old Emperor Chengshui can give the Black Flag Guards to Zhou Rui, even if There were only two people, which was enough to show the attitude of the old emperor.

It seems that the old emperor really wanted the third prince to take over. So where did Zhou Jue's princely edict come from? By charm?

At noon, Jiang Yichun was released from the prison and hurried back to Bai's house.

"Yi Chun has also endured hardship. I asked my servants to prepare some moxa leaves and remember to cleanse the bad luck later." Lin Ping'er said happily.

The custom of the Danliang Kingdom is to soak mugwort leaves in water to wash away bad luck after coming out of prison.

"Thank you, mother. I'll go and clean it up right now." After a few days in the morning jail, his stubble had sprouted out, and he looked a little worn out. After saying this, he pulled Bai Ruozhu down, asking his wife to help him clean it up... …
