The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 459

Chapter 459: Brutal 233 (Second Update) Chapter 459: Brutal 233 (Second Update) Tang Ming felt the icy anger coming from Gu Changqing and was utterly intimidated on the spot.

Gu Changqing did not want to wake Gu Yan, so he withdrew his sword, and took Gu Yan away without causing a ruckus.

It was not until Gu Changqing vanished at the end of the street that Tang Ming, drenched by the cold rain, finally came back to his senses.

Damn it!

Did he just get threatened by Gu Changqing?!

Gu Changqing took Gu Yan back to Bishui Alley, while on another side, Gu Jiao returned to the Medical Hall.

She entered through the back door, directly into her own Courtyard, where she changed back into her female clothes before going to the Grand Hall.

The shopkeeper, Wang, was surprised when he saw her: “Eh? Where did you come in from?”

“The back door,” Gu Jiao replied.

The third apprentice followed behind in silence.

Dr. Song, having finished visiting the patients upstairs, came down and greeted Gu Jiao.

The Shopkeeper Wang handed her a cup of tea.

Gu Jiao took the cup and took a sip. Then she asked Dr. Song, “How is Jiang Shi’s condition?”

“The weather changed suddenly, and he caught a chill. He had some fever at noon, and we gave him some medicine, which brought down the fever.”

“He needs to avoid catching wind-chill at this point. It can easily lead to complications,” stated Gu Jiao. She paused and then said, “I will go and see him in a while.”

“Very well,” Dr. Song responded.

“Dr. Song! This patient says he has lost the prescription you gave him and he is asking if we can prepare the medicine again?” a medicine boy was calling Dr. Song from the medicine counter.

Dr. Song responded: “I will go over.”

Gu Jiao nodded in assent.

Dr. Song then went over to the medicine counter.

At this moment, there were not many patients in the clinic, and it was not busy. The shopkeeper Wang guided Gu Jiao to the counting room and updated her about the continuing issue with the medical troublemakers: “…those few are nothing more than petty hooligans from the Capital city who are known for their petty crimes. They are not from our area; they are from the west side of the city. I agreed not to report them to the authorities as long as they confessed who was behind their actions. I had planned to bluff them. But to my surprise, they really claimed that someone had instigated them!”

Gu Jiao was not surprised by this.

“Is it someone from the same line of work? ” Gu Jiao enquired.

Shopkeeper Wang said, “That’s my guess too. They said there was a mastermind, and I thought it had to be our old rivals… Huichun Hall? However, guess what they told me, it was a young lady!”

Gu Jiao asked, “What’s the age of this young lady?”
