Chapter 288

When Gu Ying saw him, she always felt that this person was a bit familiar, as if she had seen him talking to Huai An once, he was probably someone from the Qilin Army.

"Huai Bi, go find Zhuge Doctor to get some medicine to stabilize the pregnancy."

Huai Bi stared at Gu Ying blankly for a while, "Yes, sir."

After saying that, she turned around and left.

At this time, Gu Ying felt a little guilty. When she went out, she didn't think of anything. She just wanted to see the Prince as soon as possible. After getting on the carriage, she realized that she didn't bring anything with her. She just rushed over alone decisively.

"In fact, I don't need to drink medicine to stabilize the pregnancy anymore. There is also a doctor in Ning House who said that the baby is fine. More than three months have passed, I don't need to be as careful as before, otherwise it will not be good for the child." Gu Ying tried to make up for it in two sentences. When she looked back, her eyes fell into the man's deep and intoxicating phoenix eyes, and she stopped talking abruptly, "A Du..."

Zhao Changdu let go of her hand and stood three steps away from her, "I will send you to the courtyard next door in a while, and let someone bring Yinlan over tomorrow."

Gu Ying smiled slightly, "Actually it's not necessary. I'm not afraid of anything."

The man's tone was low and heavy, full of deep feelings, "But I'm afraid."

Gu Ying had died once before, so she was not afraid of death at all. But listening to the man's words of concern, her heart softened. She walked up to him and said, "A Du, I think I have a way to save Yueyang."

Zhao Changdu frowned, not understanding the little girl's words at all.

This was not other natural disasters. This was a plague that could kill entire families and wipe out clans. It was highly infectious, difficult to treat, and because too many people died, some corpses could not be buried or cremated in time, which would lead to a second wave of transmission, ten or a hundred times more terrible than natural disasters.

She was just a fragile little girl. What did it matter to her whether Yueyang City survived or perished?

Gu Ying saw the worry on his face. She stretched out her finger and hooked his little finger, "A Du, sit down and talk."

There was a soft couch, a book case, and a long table for dining in the study.

Gu Ying sat down, and the long table was stacked with layers of case files. Zhao Changdu still had a thick black scarf covering his face. Huai Bi brought up hot water and hurriedly retreated, closing the door behind him.

The man was sitting upright on one side of the long table. He lit the lamp on the long table. His posture was upright, his back straight like bamboo, and his actions of pouring water were extremely elegant and noble.

The scene was pleasing to the eye, and the room gradually became warmer.

It seemed that the cold war between the two had easily broken the ice tonight.

Gu Ying looked at him happily for a moment, then casually picked up the dossier that recorded the plague and read it rapidly.

The dossier recorded the symptoms of the plague, the number of infected patients, the duration of infection, the symptoms of death, and the reaction to medication in great detail.

It was clear that all this was recorded in detail by the Prince after spending day and night with the patients for more than ten days.

After skimming through it all at once, Gu Ying was very impressed by the Prince's ability to coordinate and plan, while becoming more convinced that this plague was related to Jiang Yin.

She put aside her heartache and admiration, and discussed seriously with him, "A Du, do you still remember that before coming to Yueyang, I had already told you that there would be a plague in Yueyang?"

"Yes."

He believed the little girl's words, so he had made full preparations. Although the plague broke out this time, everything was still under control, at least it had not spread to the surrounding areas.

Gu Ying pondered and said, "Since ancient times, great plagues have followed great disasters, but this time we were prepared for the snow disaster in advance and it did not cause much impact on the common people of Yueyang City. Since there was no great disaster, where did the plague come from?"

Zhao Changdu's eyebrows lightly furrowed as he handed her the poured hot water.

Gu Ying took it and drank a sip, then slowly said, "A Du, I have reason to suspect that this is not a plague, but someone deliberately poisoning people." "Poisoning?" Zhao Changdu did not believe it.

Gu Ying simply got up and sat next to him, her black and white eyes fixed tightly on his deep phoenix eyes.

Zhao Changdu looked away, trying to avoid her touch.

Gu Ying grabbed his arm with one hand, entwining her whole body around him, and through the black scarf, kissed his lips.

Zhao Changdu's sword-like eyebrows wrinkled. His big hand grabbed her shoulders and barely pushed her away, "A Ying, don't fool around! The other day I touched an infected person and I'm still taking medicine!"

Gu Ying was indifferent, "What if I die together with you?"

The man's eyebrows and eyes gathered fiery anger and anxiety, "No!"

The corners of Gu Ying's mouth curled up into a smile. She faced his flustered, worried gaze without any fear, reached out and took off the black scarf from his face. Her red lips moved up and took in his cool, thin lips. Under his resistance, for the first time she aggressively hugged his neck and deepened the kiss.

The unique sweet smell of her body came over, and Zhao Changdu suddenly froze.

Gu Ying simply sat in his arms and raised her chin to kiss him again. She wanted to tell him this way that she was not afraid of life and death.

The man's fine stubble rubbed against her tender skin, pricking and itching her a little. She naughtily pried open his tightly pursed lips and let their breaths mingle.

"A Du..." She gently rubbed against his cold, hard profile.

She didn't believe that even now, he could still hold back.

"A Ying, you little demon..." The man gritted his teeth, and his big hand dropped from her shoulder to her slender waist.

Gu Ying only felt that the palm on her waist was hot like fire.

The man who was holding her turned the tables and took control. His breathing became heavier. In an instant he took away all her breath.

Gu Ying was kissed fiercely by him until she was panting for breath. In the entanglement, she let out alluring, clingy moans and whines.

She took the initiative to provoke him, but in the end, it was still her with red-rimmed eyes begging for mercy.

Zhao Changdu was breathing heavily. His eyes were darker than the netherworld.

Gu Ying collapsed weakly in his arms, her face flushed red, gasping for air, "As long as I don't use the quarantine area’s water or eat their food, A Du can observe whether I will be infected by this so-called plague or not."

Zhao Changdu's eyebrows furrowed slightly again, "Tomorrow I will summon Zhuge and the others to discuss and verify whether someone has poisoned the well."

Gu Ying chuckled softly, "Yes, so I'm not going to keep hiding for my life in Ning House."

So in her eyes, staying in Ning House was just hiding for her life.

Zhao Changdu gave her a helpless look, "What can a little girl like you do?"

"What's wrong with being a little girl?" The corners of Gu Ying's eyes were still flushed red. She smiled brightly at the man and said, "Maybe in the end, I'm the only one who can keep Yueyang City alive."

Somehow, Zhao Changdu's heart thumped uneasily. His big hand clasped the back of the woman's head tightly and said in a deep voice, "A Ying, who would do such a thing?"

Gu Ying answered without hesitation, "Jiang Yin."

Zhao Changdu frowned again, "Why do you think it's Jiang Yin?"

Gu Ying got up from his arms and looked at him directly without avoidance, "Because he is ambitious and planning something big. Yueyang is just a part of his plan. Otherwise, knowing how dangerous Yueyang was, he would not have insisted on coming here with Prince Shu."

Zhao Changdu was alerted by the sentence she said "he knew Yueyang was dangerous".

The "he" referred to Jiang Yin.
