"What happened?" Ji Liao felt that Zhuo Qing's mood had changed.

Zhuo Qing murmured: "Young Master, someone is dead."

Ji Liao looked stern and said, "Speak clearly."

"The stone lion outside the government office was wrapped in a white scarf. It must be that someone in the palace died." Zhuo Qing was not stupid. Only the prefect and his family passed away were qualified to hold a funeral in the palace, and no one else was qualified. He learned that the prefect's family was the only one Miss Gu, who was rumored to be a fairy-looking person, and there was no one else besides that.

Either something happened to the prefect, or something happened to the prefect's daughter.

What he could think of was Ji Liao naturally.

It was still early at this time, and the white scarf on the stone lion was also newly wrapped, so there were probably few people who received the news, so only servants came in and out inside and outside the government office.

Ji Liao wanted to know the truth more and more, so he got off the carriage and walked straight to the gate.

The door stopped him.

Ji Liao frowned and said, "I am Ji Liao from Four Seasons Villa. Have you never seen him before?"

The menzi is a local, so how can I not know about Four Seasons Villa? What's more, the day before yesterday, the magistrate personally brought the young master in front of him into the mansion. He didn't dare to offend him, so he nodded and bowed, and then squeezed out tears and said, "Young Master, my lady just left last night, and the lord told him not to see anyone."

Ji Liao pressed the shoulder of the gate and said slowly: "Who did you say left?"

He couldn't help but strengthen his hands, and the pinched Menzi's shoulders hurt. Menzi cried out in pain: "It's my lady."

Ji Liao let go of his hand, looked a little confused, then calmed down and said gently: "Sorry, I lost my composure for a while. Please inform Lord Gu, and say that Ji Liao is visiting."

The men pleaded: "Young Master Ji, please let the young man go. I really don't dare to go in and report it."

Ji Liao said lightly: "You have to think clearly."

He didn't say a word of threat, but a pressure was applied to Menzi. Moreover, the power of Four Seasons Villa is deeply rooted in Cangzhou. Menzi couldn't resist it and said helplessly: "I'll go in and report it. If it doesn't work, don't blame me." Menzi knew that it made the magistrate angry and had a meal at most. If Young Master Ji of Four Seasons Villa was angry, Cangzhou Prefecture was afraid that some people would deal with his family.

When the door went in to report, Ji Liao stood outside the door without saying a word. He didn't believe that Gu Weirui was really dead, and he didn't want Gu Weirui to die.

…………

Gu Rong was alone in his daughter's boudoir. His daughter was lying quietly on the bed, but his face was no longer bloody. He didn't know why his daughter suddenly left. His daughter was in poor health since childhood, which was the root cause of the womb. It was all because he did not stop his wife from getting pregnant at that time, so that his wife was seriously injured after giving birth to her daughter and left early, and her daughter was also congenitally weak and suffered a lot of torture.

He used his clan relationship to find the medical saint Li Jing and asked him to cure his daughter. Li Jing proposed the condition at that time and wanted to accept his daughter as his disciple. He thought that his daughter would not be able to take the imperial examinations after all, and it would be better to study medicine, at least she would have a healthy body in the future.

Gu Rong didn't know how good his daughter was when she was young, but her daughter was really healthy every day and liked flowers and trees. But her daughter didn't get the true teachings of his master, otherwise how could she suddenly die of illness? The doctor she found was held on her neck with a knife by him in the middle of the night, and she still told Gu Rong tremblingly that his daughter Gu Weirui's heart was gone and even the gods could not save her.

Gu Rong laughed bitterly, why wasn't he the one who died? Why did his wife and daughter leave early? But he was still very healthy. He has been practicing the Five Animal Show that Li Jing passed on to him over the years, just to watch his daughter grow up healthily, so as not to get old and weak in the future and to drag her down.

But why is this? What mistake did he make or offend some gods, and he insisted on punishing him like this.

As Gu Rong fell into deep sorrow, someone knocked on the door gently, and Gu Rong said furiously: "Didn't I say no one is allowed to disturb me?"

The servant outside whispered: "Young Master Ji Liaoji of Four Seasons Villa is asking for a visit outside."

"No one sees you." Gu Rong almost yelled.

The servant whispered, "Yes."

Gu Rong said again: "Who do you think it is?"

"Young Master Ji Liaoji of Four Seasons Villa." The servant amplified his voice slightly.

Gu Rong was silent for a while, and it turned out to be the young man. He said, "Ji Liao knows what happened in the mansion?"

"I only knew it." The servant said softly.

Gu Rong said: "You bring him here."

He thought of Ji Liao's magical ability to rejuvenate the plants and trees, and he was somewhat expectant, and he always looked at this young man with a different look.

After a while, Ji Liao followed the servants of the government office. He could not see the white arrangements around him, but could feel the sorrow in the palace.

He came to Gu Weirui's boudoir, and on the eve of the past, he put the girl back here, and at this moment he will see the girl again. The girl who was still alive on the eve of the past, now seems to be a cold corpse.

He could not be sure, nor did he want to test in front of Gu Rong without any scruples whether Gu Weirui was really dead. Because he did not feel Gu Weirui's breathing and heartbeat last night, nor did he feel it at this time.

Gu Rong said, "Sit down."

Ji Liao replied subconsciously: "Uncle's Day."

Gu Rong said: "Ji Liao, can I ask you something?"

Ji Liao said seriously: "Uncle just tells me."

"Look at Wei Rui's rescue, just like you saved those two potted plants." Gu Rong's eyes were full of hope.

Ji Liao said: "People and plants are different."

Gu Rong said: "You try it. I know you must have some special abilities. Don't worry, I will never ask or tell others."

Ji Liao sighed in his heart. Gu Rong must be very talented when he was admitted to the second grade Jinshi. He indeed guessed that it was not that easy for him to save the potted plant, but his ability was limited to plants and trees. However, he did not try it on others, and there might be an accident. He said, "Then I'll give it."

Gu Rong said: "Okay, okay." He wiped away the tears from his eyes with his cuffs. At this moment, he did not dare to have any hope, but he could not be more desperate, otherwise why would he ask Ji Liao?

Ji Liao went to Gu Weirui's bed and said to Gu Rong: "Uncle, I'm sorry for offending me, I'm so fond of you."

Gu Rong said: "It's okay."

Ji Liao put a index finger on Gu Weirui's white wrist, just like Gu Weirui was ripping him in the garden yesterday, and even the techniques were exactly the same. He had a certain amount of grass and trees energy in his body to take care of emergencies. At this time, all of them were vented through his index finger and entered Gu Weirui's body.

The essence of grass and trees passed by, like a stone sinking into the sea, and it could not be alarmed. No, a very cold breath actually followed his index finger and entered his meridians. When he thought that the cold breath was going to be destroyed in his body, it was suddenly absorbed by something and disappeared invisible.

His fingers trembled slightly and were shaken away by an invisible force. Ji Liao was silent for a long time. He couldn't figure out whether Gu Weirui was dead or not. Judging from the pulse, his heart was indeed broken, but the extremely cold aura was obviously not simple.
