My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 233 It's all here
She hadn't even shown the evidence of Madam Gu Liu's embezzlement to Lord Gu, and yet Madam Gu Liu was about to exhaust herself to death.

It works.

Qin Yuan calmed down and said to Cui Ming who was standing beside him in shock: "Go get the incense pills and fill them up."

Cui Mingmu walked out blankly.

Doctor Li frowned and said, "Since Madam Gu Liu is so afraid of you, I'm afraid it will be troublesome in the future."

Qin Yuan asked: "Why do you think so?
What trouble could a fool, who disregards his own life, have?
Doctor Li said, "I have seen many such things. There are countless private matters in the harem. Doctor Liu and I were both in the mansion, but she died of illness. Those who know her say that she brought disaster upon herself, but those who don't know her would not think so."

"hiss……"

Qin Yuan was shocked.

These days, Madam Gu Liu was locked up in the courtyard. If she hadn’t followed Doctor Li and seen it with her own eyes, she probably wouldn’t have believed that Madam Liu was so ill and still didn’t want to see a doctor…

Doctor Li looked solemn and whispered, "I even gave her a prescription and asked her to take it and see what happens... I was kindhearted, but who knew she would become so ill these days. After hearing what Madam Zhao said, I feel that if she continues to wait, her life will be in danger."

Qin Yuan sighed.

Some people are like this, no matter what they do, they can always cause trouble for you.

Doctor Li added, "Master, I am not exaggerating. In the past, a wealthy businessman from Yangzhou brought his concubine's son to Beijing to do business. He suddenly fell ill and died before he could get treatment. The concubine's son was expelled from the family by the legitimate son who stayed in the old house. He was said to be worse than pigs and dogs, with ulterior motives, and he killed his father."

Qin Yuan was in deep thought.

Madam Gu Liu's two sons are still in the Imperial College. If they come back and their mother is gone...

Qin Yuan said gratefully: "Thank you for the reminder, Master. I really didn't think of going up this level."

Doctor Li said, "You can't be blamed for this. Xiaodong and I often go in and out of her courtyard, and we didn't know anything about it. If it weren't for the nanny beside her who was eager to protect her, I'm afraid she wouldn't know about it until something happened after the mansion was opened."

Every time he went to see a patient, the Sixth Madam never showed up and only let Madam Zhao handle the matter. For all these days, he and Xiaodong had no idea that someone was dying of illness right under their noses.

Isn't this a scam?

Doctor Li was very annoyed: "She is not a servant. If something serious happens, I will not be able to ask for a thank-you gift from the Marquis."

Not to mention the thank-you gift, I'm afraid I'll have to give out the one thousand taels I've pocketed.

Qin Yuan immediately understood Doctor Li's concerns and said, "Master, don't worry. I will find a way to let the Marquis and the Sixth Master know that it's not that your medical skills are poor, but that the Sixth Madam is seeking her own death and is unwilling to see a doctor."

"Good, good, good."

Doctor Li felt relieved.

Cui Ming took out the box filled with scented pills. Qin Yuan had already sent someone to invite Gu Jinghui and Gu Liuye to Wutong Garden for a chat.

Doctor Li thought about it and decided to stay.

After a while, Gu Jingjun came with Xiaodong. Qin Yuan saw that he looked listless and didn't say much, so she just asked the maid to bring tea.

"Third sister-in-law, I really didn't expect..."

Mr. Gu Liu changed into a long gown again. The moon-white gauze dress lightly wrapped around his slender body. His long black hair like a waterfall was tied up with a jade hairpin. The gentle young man seemed to have unspeakable sorrow in his heart.

Qin Yuan thought that judging from his appearance alone, Mr. Gu Liu still had some of the air of a celebrity. If he was groomed well, he might actually become famous in the capital as a celebrity.

Seeing that Qin Yuan didn't respond, Mr. Gu Liu's long eyelashes trembled slightly. He felt embarrassed and couldn't continue.

"Why are you all here?"

Gu Jinghui asked as soon as he entered the hall.

Master Gu Liu couldn't help but tremble.

Because everyone was here, Qin Yuan stood up and greeted him as usual, saying softly, "My husband is here. I thought that this matter would eventually have to be known to my mother, but I didn't know how to say it, so I invited everyone to discuss it."

Gu Jinghui glanced at his wife whom he hadn't seen for a few days. Although his expression was not obvious, he was already very happy in his heart. When he learned that Qin Yuan was looking for him at Wutong Garden, Gu Jinghui was inspecting the abandoned yard. He couldn't help but proudly said to Gu Shiliu, "Madam, you missed me."

Gu Shiliu nodded in agreement.

Gu Jinghui said: “After you get married, you will know that when a woman has you in her heart and wants to see you, she will always find various excuses and won’t say it directly.”

Gu Shiliu thought that this must be the content of the precious book of General Jin.

It depends on whether what the master has learned is useful or not.

If it is really useful, he will have to pester General Jin to ask for a copy of the treasure book.

Gu Jinghui was extremely anxious all the way, but when he reached the gate of the courtyard, he walked very slowly, almost catching up with a snail.

Gu Shiliu: “…”

Don’t try to guess what the Marquis is thinking.

When Gu Jinghui walked to the corridor, he looked like a soldier inspecting training in the camp.

Gu Shiliu lowered his head and followed the Marquis.

Hong Mian saw them from a distance and hurried over, saying, "My Lord, the Madam and the Sixth Master are waiting in the hall."

Although Gu Jinghui's expression was serious before, it was not cold.

After hearing this, I felt inexplicably colder.

Hongmian was so frightened that she dared not look up. She just quickly followed him into the hall. After only two steps, she was left far behind by Marquis Gu.

Gu Shiliu turned around and said to her, "You don't have to follow me. Since the Madam is in the hall discussing matters, it won't be a problem if you don't inform her."

Hongmian nodded and stopped.

When Gu Jinghui stepped into the hall, his brows were furrowed and his expression was stern, but when he saw Qin Yuan's beautiful smile and graceful figure, his expression softened involuntarily.

Gu Shiliu was no longer surprised by this.

Lord Gu nodded slightly to the people who stood up, then sat down next to Qin Yuan and asked, "What's the matter?"

Qin Yuan started the conversation.

"this matter……"

Then she saw Lord Gu leaning on the armchair, turning his head slightly to look over, his dark eyes filled with her figure.

Somehow, I suddenly couldn't continue speaking.

Fortunately, Master Gu Liu suddenly spoke up and said, "This matter is all Xu's fault. I don't know what she was thinking."

When Lord Gu heard that it was about his sixth brother's wife again, he frowned in annoyance.

Qin Yuan said, "Sixth brother, let's not talk about this for now. Your sister-in-law is very ill now, but she doesn't want Doctor Li to see her. Should we try to invite some famous doctors who are willing to come to the mansion to see her?"

Doctor Li nodded in agreement: "Although my medical skills are limited and I am not very useful, I can see that Madam Gu Liu's symptoms are not something that an ordinary doctor can treat. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid it will be difficult to cure."

Gu Jinghui said nothing.

Master Gu Liu stood up, bowed to Qin Yuan, and said, "Everything is up to Third Sister-in-law."

Gu Jinghui said angrily: "Your own wife is sick, and you don't go to persuade her to see a doctor. What are you letting your third sister-in-law decide?"

Gu Liuye trembled as he defended himself, saying, "Third brother, you don't know. Xu kept her illness a secret. I asked about the two children's conditions many times, and even Aunt Huang talked to me across the yard for a while, but she kept it a secret. If it weren't for Aunt Zhao asking Doctor Li for help, how would I know about this?"
