Chapter 390
At this time, Gu Zezhi handed the cup filled with Pomegranate juice to Qin Jiu and looked at her with a smile. “This Pomegranate juice is good.” It was not only sweet but also suitable for moistening the throat and relieving the autumn dryness.
Qin Jiu was feeling a little thirsty so she smoothly took the pomegranate juice and drank two mouthfuls, and thought Gu Zezhi must have liked the juice, she generously said. “This pomegranate is sent from the farm, it’s sweet and fragrant, if you like it, when you leave later, take two baskets with you.”
When she drank the Pomegranate juice, the cuff slightly slipped, revealing a section of a white and luminous wrist, and on that wrist, she was wearing the gold bracelet inlaid with rubies that Gu Zezhi gave her a few days ago. The big rubies were like crystal pomegranate grains, bright in color.
She really likes his gift! The corner of Gu Zezhi’s lips curled higher and his voice softer, “En, I like it a lot.”
Meanwhile, the corners of Qin Zening’s eyes twitched, always feeling that Gu Zezhi’s words sounded like hidden words. He was actually flirting with his sister in front of him, how arrogant!
Qin Zeyu, on the other hand, looked at his sister talking to Gu Zezhi and breathed a sigh of relief, casting a grateful look at Gu Zezhi. Thanks to Third Brother Gu helping him, if his sister continues her lecture, he may end up copying it ten times instead of only copying it once.

Qin Zening: “…”
Was this heartless bear really his brother? Could it be a mistake?
Gu Zezhi’s smile deepened as he took a sip of the juice, staining his thin lips with bright red from Pomegranate.
At this time, rushed footsteps outside the hall broke the tranquility of the night, and the heavy gasping sound overwhelmed the soft chirps of insects outside.
Qin Zening, Qin Jiu, and Qin Zeyu all felt their heart thump.
Immediately, the siblings’ complexion changed. Qin Zening hurriedly asked. “What’s wrong with grandma?”
(*aid for digestion)
“You keep mentioning the third miss at every turn, are you trying to use the third miss to pressure me?!”
“Mother is just a little uncomfortable, no need to ask for a physician!”
Qin Zening and Qin Zeyu were both frowning deeply, meanwhile, Qin Jiu looked pensive: How did Old Madam Qin suddenly fall ill? Three days ago, she was obviously fine when she visited them.
Qin Zening hurriedly said, “Let’s go over and take a look.”
No matter what, Old Madam Qin was ill, they definitely need to go over and take a look.
The siblings got up one after another, Qin Zening was about to order his personal attendant to invite a physician when he heard Gu Zezhi’s suggestion. “Take my post to ask the imperial physician.”
Those members of the Marquis of Zhongyi were not qualified to call an imperial physician, but it was different for Gu Zezhi, he was a member of a royal clan and also holds the title of County King, who could summon an imperial physician for consultation.
Qin Zening naturally did not want to be polite to Gu Zezhi, so he quickly instructed the servant to prepare a pen and ink, and also called for the steward, instructing him to take Gu Zezhi’s post to the imperial hospital and have the imperial physician directly go to Marquis of Zhongyi’s Mansion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe siblings together with Gu Zezhi hurriedly rushed towards the gate. The silver moonlight softly spilled down the trees, creating shadows that looked like it was hovering, and a strong fragrance of incense wafted.
Gu Zezhi suddenly said to Qin Zening, “A’ning, do you still remember Feng Shiwen?”
Qin Zening first raised his eyebrows in confusion when suddenly his eyes widened and couldn’t hide his shocked expression at what came to mind after, he felt that the strong fragrance of incense felt a bit stuffy.
Gu Zezhi’s voice was not too loud, only Qin Zening and Qin Jiu could hear him.
Qin Jiu on the other side of him pulled his sleeve and raised her eyebrows to look at him, meaning——
What does he mean by this sentence?
Gu Zezhi: “Feng Shiwen served as the chief envoy in Huizhou four years ago.”
Qin Jiu couldn’t even remember all the ministers in the court now, let alone the official four years ago, however, she could tell from Gu Zezhi’s tone that something happened to this Feng Shiwen four years ago, so she tugged Gu Zezhi’s sleeves again, meaning——
You keep talking.
Gu Zezhi lowered his head and whispered to her, telling her that four years ago, due to a flood in Huizhou, Feng Shiwen ordered Hongfeng County to open the floodgate to discharge the flood, but there was a mistake with their assessment and flooded the village instead making thousands of people homeless. Feng Shiwen was supposed to go to the capital for trial, but it happened that his mother had passed away, so Feng Shiwe went back to his hometown to observe his filial piety for his mother.
