Chapter 899: Chapter 893 Lovesickness

Gu Youyou chuckled, "What other illness could it be? Lovesickness, of course."

Searcy was speechless——she hurled a book of Medical Skills at her, her face boiling with rage, almost igniting the room, her cheeks almost as red as Guan Gong’s.

"Hey, hey! If you dare, don’t leave."

"Damn, I’ve accepted a fake disciple. How dare you hit your master?" Gu Youyou yelled while running, creating a scene of utter chaos.

"Get lost, who’s your disciple."

...

Gu Youyou arrived at the palace, and the Empress Dowager greeted her warmly, asking, "It’s good that you’re safe. Now tell me, what exactly happened? It seems like it involved the State Preceptor and the Heavenly Master?"

Gu Youyou explained with difficulty, "Actually, I’m not very clear myself. I had fainted at the time, and by the time I woke up, I was already at the clinic. However, I did indeed hear that Tianzong had clashed with Xuanzong, and it was quite fierce."

The Empress, with a compassionate face, sighed, "When the gate catches fire, the fish in the pond suffer. Youyou, you are those fish who suffered. Poor child, you kindly treated the Heavenly Master and then the State Preceptor, and nearly lost your own life. Sigh! Luckily, you are safe now. The Emperor mentioned that this is an internal matter of the Dao Sect, and we shouldn’t speculate rashly. Let’s not talk about it anymore; it’s frightening."

"Yes, yes, this Dao Sect... alas, let’s not say more, we can’t discuss it. Anyway, Youyou, hurry and find Jiujiu. She’s been fussing over your near demise and has been wanting to see you urgently."

"Yes, I shall take my leave now."

A Palace Maiden escorted Gu Youyou to Princess Jiujiu’s Liuying Hall, and the Empress continued talking with the Empress Dowager. Upon seeing the departing figure of Gu Youyou, and noticing her attire, she suddenly realized, exclaiming, "Isn’t the dress Youyou is wearing the new model from Manxiu Building, that hasn’t been released yet?"

The garments from Manxiu Building had indeed become a luxury of the ancient upper class, often hard to obtain even with a hefty amount of Silver.

The dress Gu Youyou was wearing featured early spring plum blossoms as its theme, detailed in the album the Empress had received earlier that year. Her piece was in the lead color, Long E.

She hurriedly spoke to a nearby Palace Maiden, "Go to Jinxiu City and check if the palace pink set I ordered is ready?"

Empress Dowager burst into laughter, "Empress, are you also chasing after Manxiu Building’s dresses like those young girls? The palace pink is a pale white color."

Embarrassed by Empress Dowager’s tease, the Empress said, "Empress Dowager, if I don’t wear them now, in a few years, I will be even more embarrassed to wear them."

The Palace Maiden also chuckled softly, whispering to the Empress, "Empress Dowager, Doctor Gu is actually the owner behind Manxiu Building. I’ve inquired about it, and these styles were all personally designed by her. It seems the one she’s wearing today is a sample; the actual product won’t be out for another ten days, according to the album."

"Oh, designed by Youyou?" The Empress Dowager was quite surprised.

"Yes, Empress Dowager, Doctor Gu is quite capable," another Palace Maiden added.

The Empress smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes.

Lin Family’s Miss was too peculiar, it seemed necessary to have someone secretly investigate, even if the Lin Family were her own people, she still needed to be cautious.

...

Gu Youyou did not manage to reach Princess Jiujiu’s Liuying Hall smoothly; midway, she was stopped by Princess Jin Fengzhao.

"Halt, person ahead!"

Gu Youyou hadn’t noticed the person emerging from the bushes, but the tone was not friendly.

She turned around, seeing the person hastily approaching her.
