The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 133

133 Not Giving In

“Eldest Young Master, I heard that Madam originally wanted to invite Old Physician Li, but he was angry and refused to come again. In the end, he could only settle for the next best thing and hire other doctors in the capital who are good at treating external injuries.”

“Those doctors all said that the Marquis has yet to recover from his old injuries and has new injuries. If this continues, I’m afraid he won’t be able to hold a brush.”

Gu Yuan had a good night’s sleep and slept peacefully until dawn. When he heard this news from the servant, Wu Tong, it was already the next morning.

In the end, Wu Tong asked hesitantly, “Eldest Young Master, Madam wants you to see the Marquis…”

!!
“There’s no need.”

Gu Yuan left after saying this.

Today was the first day he officially took office as the imperial guard. The first thing he did was accompany the Eldest Prince, Chu Yi, out of the capital.

This was the first time in eight years that the State of Yue had sent an envoy to visit Great Jin.

The envoy was the Third Prince of the State of Yue and was born by the State of Yue’s noble consort. His brother, the Eldest Prince of the State of Yue, had just been appointed as the Crown Prince this year.

This time, the Third Prince of the State of Yue had come to visit. Of course, the person in charge of welcoming the envoy could not be too casual, lest the State of Yue feel that Great Jin was being disrespectful.

Therefore, half a month ago, the royal court had already decided that Kang Wang, Chu You, would welcome the Third Prince of the State of Yue and the others.

However, because Kang Wang had stabbed the British Crown Prince Fang Mingfeng for no reason not long ago, this had caused public anger among the nobles.

The Emperor immediately issued a decree appointing the Eldest Prince, Chu Yi, to be in charge of this matter.

Kang Wang’s faction had just suffered a huge setback, but with the protection of Imperial Duke Wei and the others, this matter went exceptionally smoothly.

This was also the first job the Eldest Prince had done after returning to the country.

With so many eyes on him in the capital, Gu Yuan was also very serious. Ever since then, he hasn’t returned to the Marquis Mansion. He only sent someone back to tell Gu Yanfei that he had accompanied the Eldest Prince to temporarily stay in the Ministry of War.

Anyway, Gu Yuan had never been at home, so Gu Yanfei was already used to it.

In the following days, she almost did not leave the house. She spent all her energy on the flintlock that Gu Yuan had left with her.

Gu Yanfei planned to draw an array formation on this flintlock.

The last time she had casually drawn it in the garden, it had been a one-time temporary array that doubled the power of the flintlock.

At that time, even Gu Yuan was dumbfounded. He took the flintlock and looked at it again and again. It even attracted the attention of half of the Marquis Mansion. After testing it with these two shots and roughly judging its power, Gu Yanfei did not continue.

It was not difficult to draw an array formation. What was rare was that there was no spiritual energy to borrow in this small world.

The spiritual energy in the phoenix-patterned jade pendant was ultimately too little. It was not even enough for her to draw spiritual energy into her body. Every time the spiritual energy in her body was exhausted, it would take a long time to “recover” her blood.

A permanent “sharp array”, even if it was the lowest level, would take her a lot of time now. After drawing a part, she would have to wait for her spiritual power to recover before continuing…

Fortunately, with the plum blossom jade hairpin Chu Yi had given her, she could continuously nourish her sea of consciousness and speed up the recovery of spiritual energy.

Gu Yanfei, who had been locked in the study room, meditated every day, drawing array formations, meditating, and continuing to draw array formations.

As the days repeated monotonously, seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and the 23rd of December came quickly.

It had taken so long, but the results had not been satisfactory.

Looking at the crooked and intermittent array formation on the flintlock, Gu Yanfei sighed deeply.

It was so ugly that she couldn’t bear to look at it.

If her master saw this, not only would she be laughed at, but she would also be punished to draw 300 more of the same array formations.

Thinking of the years when she first learned array formations from her master, Gu Yanfei smiled.

The kitten rolled around on its belly carefreely, rubbing its back against the ground one moment and grinding its teeth with a plum blossom the next.

Caught off guard, Gu Yanfei reached out and grabbed the kitten. She pressed a front paw on the cinnabar and pressed a bright red “Plum Blossom Mark” on the gun.

Yes, it looks much better now!

Gu Yanfei thought calmly.

“My Lady, the Eldest Young Master is here.” Juan Bi came in beaming, her hair wrapped in a headscarf and a feather duster in her hand.

The Marquis Mansion had already begun to prepare for the new year. On New Year’s Day, they had to offer sacrifices to the gods and sweep the dust. The maidservants in the courtyard were all holding brooms, feather dusters, dusting horsetail whisks, sweeping the courtyard, and dredging ditches… All of them were happily sweeping up the dust.

It was already New Year’s Eve. Only then did Gu Yanfei slowly realize the passage of time.

She pursed her lips and smiled. She casually threw the flintlock aside and picked up the rhinoceros horn bow on the table.

It was a good sign to say goodbye to the past and welcome the new.

Gu Yanfei carried the newly repaired rhinoceros horn bow and left the small study happily.

She was not afraid of the cold, so there was no charcoal brazier burning in the house. The afternoon sun shone through the open window into the secondary room, bright and clear.

Gu Yuan was already sitting on the arhat bed and drinking tea.

He wore a straight green robe with dark patterns. It was tied around his waist with a silver silk sash, and he had a sword at his waist.

His sitting posture was upright, like bamboo or pine, and he had the bearing of a soldier. His expression also exuded the arrogance of a young man.

“Sister!”

When Gu Yuan heard the commotion, he put down the teacup and looked up at Gu Yanfei, his eyes as clear as stars.

Gu Yanfei also smiled.

It had only been a few days since they last met, but Gu Yuan had changed a lot. He looked more energetic than before, even when he wasn’t smiling.

It seemed that he was doing well as an imperial guard.

“Big Brother.” Gu Yanfei sat down beside Gu Yuan, took an orange from the fruit pot, and casually threw it at him. “Try this orange, it’s very sweet. It was sent from the manor.”

Gu Yuan caught the orange his sister gave him and smiled happily and contentedly.

Then he stopped smiling and said, “Murong Yong was just transferred to the Divine Arms Battalion yesterday.”

It was to replace his previous transfer order.
