The Tales of a Blessed Daughter

Chapter 128: Taken the Wrong Medicine

Su Yan was thin and small. The soldiers took care of her and did not arrange heavy duties for her. She only ran some errands.

One day, they suddenly received a mission from the main tent which had been quiet to deliver a pot of hot water.

Su Yan was the first to volunteer for help.

Following the water-delivering person, she finally entered the main tent.

The layout of the tent was very simple. At first glance, there was a large sand table with various flags on it. Next to it was a single bed.

Gu Ruoyun was sitting on a chair behind the sand table. He was discussing something with the soldiers beside him.

This scene was exactly the same as Su Yan’s dream. As she lowered her head and poured the water, she stole a glance at Gu Ruoyun.

He was not in a very good state, his face was visibly pale.

Su Yan frowned. Without noticing, she stared at him for a long time.

A soldier pushed her and said, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up.”

Su Yan quickly lowered her head and stopped looking around.

The commotion attracted their attention.

Gu Ruoyun furrowed his brows.

Su Yan walked out of the main tent and sighed. It was not convenient to meet Gu Ruoyun now that someone else was here. She wondered when she would have the chance to come again.

At night, Gu Ruoyun looked at An Yi and An Er in the tent.

He asked An Er to secretly keep an eye on Su Yan.

An Yi returned to the place where they agreed to meet. He couldn’t find Su Yan, so he went straight to the military camp to look for Gu Ruoyun.

They had been secretly searching for her. Yet, they did not expect her to be in the military camp.

Gu Ruoyun could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood after everyone left.

There was something wrong with his body. Just like Su Yan, he could not find any reason too.

He did not want Su Yan to know about his condition now, so he would pretend that he did not recognize her.

Su Yan had been waiting for an opportunity to talk to Gu Ruoyun. However, the main tent had been quiet again recently. It was heavily guarded and no one was allowed to enter.

This made Su Yan even more anxious. She wondered if something happened to Gu Ruoyun.

Su Yan finished her work for the day and walked towards the temporary tent she was staying in.

She had no idea what happened. She was separated out from the rest to stay alone recently.

Su Yan sat on the bed and thought to herself. That seemed as though someone was jealous.

She pondered for a while. Then, she suddenly said, “It is so tiring to boil water. There are blisters on my hands.”

The next day, she was switched to another job.

Su Yan gritted her teeth. Gu Ruoyun must have recognized her. There must be inner guards by her side.

At night, Su Yan shouted loudly, “I know you’re following me. Quick, come out. I have important matters to discuss with Gu Ruoyun.”

Under her endless pressure, An Er finally appeared. He put on a flattering smile on his face. He was afraid that Su Yan would hurt him.

Seeing that it was An Er, Su Yan’s heart leaped with joy. She hurriedly took out a red pill and handed it to him.

Before she could say anything, she was struck by a sudden chest pain and fell to the ground.

An Er hurriedly helped her up and asked, “Princess Consort, what’s wrong?”

She grabbed An Er’s hand as he was about to go to the military doctor. She pointed at the pill and said with difficulty, “Medicine, this is medicine for Gu Ruoyun.”

An Er did not hear her clearly and thought it was Su Yan’s medicine.

He looked at the ugly pill in his hand and quickly fed it to her.

Su Yan stared blankly at the pill entering her mouth. Before she could spit it out, it had already melted.

At once, Su Yan’s heart palpitations recovered. She stared blankly at An Er, not knowing what to say.

An Er looked at Su Yan and asked, “Are you alright?”

Su Yan replied, “I’m fine. Your Royal Highness may not be.”

An Er did not understand.

Su Yan knew that An Er was reliable. She asked directly, “Did something happen to Gu Ruoyun’s body recently?”

An Er was shocked. He wondered how she knew.

Su Yan immediately knew she was right and said, “The medicine just now was for Your Royal Highness.”
