Chapter 494 What kind of woman is this?
Seeing General Gu in a daze, Gu Qingyuan couldn't help but call her, "Mom, what are you thinking about?"
General Gu lifted the thin blanket covering his body and went straight to the ground.
Gu Qingyuan was worried that she had just woken up and her strength had not yet recovered, so she stepped forward to support her.
But General Gu asked her to get up and try to stand on the ground by herself.
Her mind was spinning, and Gu Qingyuan caught her before she fell to the ground, preventing General Gu from falling.
"Mom, you've been in a coma for five days and haven't eaten anything. It's normal for you to feel weak. You'll be fine after eating something."
General Gu shook his head and said solemnly, "This is not right."
She knew her own body very well and had never experienced such a situation before.
However, when Gu Qingyuan asked her to stretch out her hand and tried to take her pulse, he found nothing abnormal.
General Gu frowned and said, "Impossible, Qingyuan, try again. I clearly feel weak and my head is uncomfortable."
So, Gu Qingyuan held his breath and carefully took General Gu's pulse again, and came to the same conclusion as before.
"Mom, maybe you are just too tired."
It was like this both times. General Gu pinched his eyebrows and said self-deprecatingly: "Maybe I am really old. As a person, you can't refuse to accept your age."
Now, Qingyuan’s oldest child is over six years old, and she herself has long become an old woman.
Gu Qingyuan quickly said, "How could that be? Mother is obviously still strong and healthy...ah, why did you hit me on the head..."
Gu Qingyuan covered her head which was hit by General Gu. She was no longer a child, but her mother still used the same method to teach her a lesson.
Then, Xia Zhi brought out the hot food from the kitchen.
General Gu took a look at the tired look on Gu Qingyuan's face and asked, "You probably haven't eaten yet, come and eat with us."
Gu Qingyuan sat over.
During the meal, General Gu thought of Gu Qingyuan who had been leading people to search for someone outside the city, so he asked her, "Have you found any clues about those two children in the past few days?"
"No."
Gu Qingyuan felt a little lost.
If she had known that the two children wanted to go home, she would have come to pick them up in person, otherwise she would not have let them disappear for so long.
The more she couldn't find Xixi and Xiaonian, the more panicked she became.
Xia Zhi was the one who sent them home, but he lost them on the way and has been blaming himself for the past two days.
When everyone was resting, Xia Zhi would go out alone with the portrait to look for people.
General Gu continued, "I was looking for them in the city a few days ago. I searched the homes of those who had conflicts with me before."
But the two children were still not found.
Gu Qingyuan was choked and looked up and asked, "Have you searched everything?"
"Yeah, I was afraid those people might have something against me, so I reached out to the two children."
After saying this, General Gu put the bowl back on the table heavily.
"If you really came for me, what kind of woman would you be to attack two children?"
"Perhaps, it's not necessarily directed at my mother..."
After General Gu said this, Gu Qingyuan suddenly remembered that the city was so small, and they had posted a missing person notice, offering a hundred taels of silver to anyone who provided useful clues.
So if someone saw them, someone would definitely come forward to provide clues. After all, the one hundred taels of silver was enough for an ordinary family to live on for a lifetime.
However, they searched everywhere in and outside the city but didn't see anyone. It is not ruled out that someone deliberately hid them.
Gu Qingyuan suddenly stood up and walked out. Seeing that she had only taken a few bites of her meal, he asked, "Where are you going? You haven't finished your meal yet."
She turned around and said, "I'm full, I'm going out for a while."
Gu Qingyuan thought of someone.
That is the Sixth Princess who has always regarded her as a thorn in her side.
The Sixth Princess even paid someone from the Tianji Pavilion to deal with her. If these two children fell into her hands, they would be in great danger.
She didn't let anyone follow her and planned to follow the Sixth Princess alone to see if she could find anything.
In the palace.
When she thought about the Gu family's extensive search for the two children, and that their lives and deaths were now in her hands, the Sixth Princess couldn't help but feel excited.
Gu Qingyuan, ah Gu Qingyuan, you could never imagine that before long, not only your child, but even General Gu will no longer exist.
By then, she can ascend the throne with confidence and take the opportunity to take back the military power of the Gu family!
The Queen naturally also learned about the disappearance of the two children of the Gu family.
Especially since Xixi was somewhat related to her by blood, the Queen privately sent someone to help General Gu find that person.
At this moment, she was standing in the imperial garden, holding a few vegetable leaves in her hand to tease the peacock that the Holy Land Kingdom had sent her.
The peacock has green feathers and a gentle personality.
When the queen went to feed it, it raised its head obediently and ate the food handed to it by the queen.
However, because it is the molting period, most of the peacock's feathers have fallen off, and its body looks a little bald.
Even the narcissistic little peacock in Gu Qingyuan's house had already hidden away secretly, so as not to let others see its bald appearance.
The Queen casually asked those around her, "What has the Sixth Princess been doing lately?"
Eunuch Li quickly said, "Your Majesty, the Princess Royal has been staying well in the palace during this period, studying in the mornings and rehearsing etiquette in the afternoons."
The Queen nodded with satisfaction.
Although this sixth brother is not as good as the former princess, she has no better candidate now.
I only hope that when I am gone in the future, she can protect the Great Ning Kingdom well.
However, with the Gu family around, at least the small countries around them will be quieter in the next few decades, and this time the Holy Land came to make friends with them.
As the queen was feeding, the peacock pecked her while eating.
The queen withdrew her hand, the vegetable leaves fell to the ground, and then bright red blood oozed out from the wound.
"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Eunuch Li hurried forward and asked worriedly.
"It doesn't matter."
The queen reached out to cover the wound, saying it was just a minor skin injury and she could get it treated when she got back.
She returned to her residence and took out the medicine to apply on herself.
She originally thought that the bleeding would stop after a while, but when she used a handkerchief to wipe it, she found that the blood was getting more and more, and soon the handkerchief was stained red.
Eunuch Li shrieked, "Your Majesty, that peacock dared to hurt you! Should we kill it?"
The Queen looked at him and said, "No need. Just keep it as an ornament. I'm fine."
After a while, the bleeding stopped.
The Queen did not take this matter to heart.
After the Sixth Princess left the palace, Gu Qingyuan followed her, but the Sixth Princess seemed to be heading towards the Tianji Pavilion?
Gu Qingyuan paused for a moment and arrived at Tianji Pavilion before the Sixth Princess.
