The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1839

Chapter 1839: 908 Collective Revelation of Identities (Part 2)

Purple grass is still here.

What does this mean?

It means that the purple grass comes from the first aid kit.

Or more precisely, the unknown dark substance attached to the purple grass comes from the first aid kit.

Gu Jiao blinked in confusion: "But didn’t Chang Jing say that the purple grass on the island was planted by the first island master? What on earth is going on?"

The National Master thought for a moment and said, "To know the answer, we might have to make a trip to Dark Night Island. This matter is not urgent for now. Didn’t Ye Qing stay on the island? Maybe when he returns, he can bring back some useful information."

Gu Jiao nodded: "That’s all we can do."

Her wedding is imminent, and she couldn’t possibly leave the groom behind to go to Dark Night Island alone.

Gu Jiao suddenly asked, "Speaking of which, I forgot to ask godfather, has the wedding date been set?"

"It has." The National Master said, "October eighteenth, an auspicious day."

"Isn’t that my eighteenth birthday?" Gu Jiao tilted her head, squinting at him, "You calculated the auspicious day?"

The National Master casually placed another chess piece: "It’s calculated by the Bureau of Astronomy."

Gu Jiao: "There is no Bureau of Astronomy in Yan Country."

The National Master: "Now there is."

Gu Jiao: "..."

The National Master said, "Not many months left, and besides, the waiting isn’t for your side in Yan Country. The people from the Duke Residence have already gone to Zhan Country, and the mansion should have been prepared. A few days ago, Duke An told me while playing chess that the team sending the bride is ready to depart at any time."

"Godfather is really considerate!" Gu Jiao was very happy.

She rested her chin on her hand, her elbow on the small desk, leisurely watching him, "Speaking of which, could your crossing over also be related to the purple grass poison?"

The National Master replied without hesitation: "No, my situation is different from yours."

Gu Jiao was disappointed: "Oh."

The National Master looked at the night in the woods and said to Gu Jiao: "It’s getting late; you should go back."

"Oh." Gu Jiao stood up, "It is indeed quite late; I’ll head back first."

"Mm." The National Master responded.

In the moonlit purple bamboo forest, Gu Jiao took out a mask from her bosom and left the purple bamboo forest with Hei Fengqi.

When meeting big brother, one must cover the face.

...

After withdrawing troops from the border pass, the Gu Family army also withdrew. However, their route back to Zhan Country didn’t pass through Shengdu in Yan Country; they went to Cang Continent, with only Old Marquis, Gu Changqing, and Tang Yueshan quietly coming to Shengdu.

The three stayed at the Duke Residence.

Gu Chengfeng deliberately flaunted his own exclusive room to them, indicating that he was the first to move in.

The three looked down on him greatly.

After taking a hot bath and changing into fresh clothes at the Duke Residence, Gu Changqing went to the National Master Hall.

What Gu Changqing needed to do couldn’t be known by others, so he deliberately waited for his sister to leave before going to see the National Master.

"National Master." He greeted politely, "Long time no see; hope you’ve been well. You don’t seem to look very good; is it that this period has been too exhausting?"

He knew some of the matters happening in Shengdu, and his brother Gu Chengfeng only played the role of the healthy-looking king, while the actual state affairs on the court were handled by the National Master.

"The emperor has ascended the throne, so I’ll have it easier from now on." His words tacitly admitted that his weakness was due to over-exhaustion, and he looked at Gu Changqing, "How have you been? Have you recovered well?"

Gu Changqing earnestly said: "I’ve recovered well. After becoming a killer, I feel my skills have improved compared to before. The lifespan of killers is shorter than ordinary people, but I don’t regret it."

The National Master dryly laughed, as long as you’re happy.

Gu Changqing solemnly looked at the National Master: "I actually have two matters for visiting late at night: one is to thank you, and two... I’ve run out of the pills you gave me to conceal my killer aura."

The National Master smiled slightly: "I’ll get you some now."

After speaking, he stood up and went to the study room to retrieve a bottle of pills and handed it to Gu Changqing.

Taking them in his hand, Gu Changqing thought of something and asked oddly: "I’ve been curious and wanted to ask the National Master, why do the pills I took at the National Master Hall smell different from those you later had me take to the border pass? The colors are different too."

The National Master forced a smile and thought: because the first time I gave you Ejiao pills, and the second time I gave you Shiquan Dabu pills.

National Master: "Have you had nosebleeds lately?"

Gu Changqing: "Yes."

"I’ll replace them with a bottle for you; rest assured, they have the same effect."

Without changing his expression, the National Master went to the study room and decisively replaced it with Linghua Qinghuo pills.

Gu Changqing left the consultation fee and took the pills back to the Duke Residence.

Duke An gave the order, and the team for sending the bride will depart in three days. The Duke Residence is hectically organizing little master’s dowry overnight.

As for why the little master is marrying a man, we don’t know, and we dare not ask.
