The Prime Minister's Darling
Chapter 776 - 776 361 Applying Eye Medicine (First Update)_2

Chapter 776: 361 Applying Eye Medicine (First Update)_2 Chapter 776: 361 Applying Eye Medicine (First Update)_2 Gu Jiao was once one of the many fighters.

The youngest, and also the weakest one.

She was sent to the arena with her companions by the godfather, half a year later, Gu Jiao came out, her companions stayed behind forever.

Gu Jiao watched the cruel and violent scene in the arena without a ripple in her eyes.

“That person’s clothes are very strange.” Gu Jiao’s gaze shifted from the East Arena to the South Arena.

Gu Changqing glanced at it and said, “That’s a Turkic person.”

Gu Jiao uttered, “There are Turkic people here too?”

The Turks are a major tribe outside the six nations, and although they claim to be a nation, they have never been recognized by the six nations, and their status in the eyes of the people of the six nations is even lower than that of the three inferior nations.

However, the Turkic people are exceedingly brave and have produced numerous masters.

The Turkic master in the arena knocked out his opponent, ruthlessly stepping on the opponent’s face with one foot, and raised both arms in a provocative and ostentatious manner, setting off a round of screams among the spectators.

Gu Jiao’s gaze fell on the master being stepped on: “Is the defeated one also a Turkic? His clothes also look odd.”

Gu Changqing’s gaze condensed slightly, obviously not in favor of the Turkic master’s action: “No, he’s a blade-master from Zhao Country.”

A Turkic master, a blade-master from Zhao Country…

This underground martial arts arena is truly beyond her expectations.

“Who exactly were you following just now?” Gu Changqing returned to the subject matter.

Who says military generals are not astute? According to Gu Jiao, Gu Changqing’s cunning is no less than Gu Yan’s.

He didn’t question her right away, instead, he relaxed her vigilance by letting her share information before suddenly asking.

Well, there’s nothing she can’t talk about anyway.

Gu Jiao mentioned: “I thought I saw Empress Dowager Jing just now.”

“Empress Dowager Jing?” A hint of surprise passed through Gu Changqing’s eyes, “Why would she come here? Isn’t she in the Imperial Palace? Are you sure you didn’t see wrong?”

“Sure.” Gu Jiao said.

She would recognize that wicked woman even if she turned to ashes.

Gu Jiao continued: “She was wearing a cloak, looking very sneaky, I think she sneaked out of the palace.”

As she spoke, Gu Jiao pointed, “She went into that house.”

Following her direction, Gu Changqing looked and frowned.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Jiao asked, “Right, I forgot to ask you, what does the gourd hanging on the door mean?”

Gu Changqing said solemnly: “It means one should absolutely not provoke them in this martial arts arena.”

Gu Jiao responded, not really taking it to heart, she asked: “There’s also a gourd on your door, how can I get one?”

Gu Changqing cast a cold glance at Gu Jiao: “You want to get this too? Be careful, I’ll tell Sixth Elder Brother.”

Gu Jiao: …you’re merciless, you win.

Gu Changqing once again looked at the house diagonally opposite, saying, “If I remember correctly, the current owner of that house seems to be a pharmacist.”

Gu Jiao rubbed her chin: “Pharmacist? Like a doctor?”

Gu Changqing thought for a moment: “You could say that, but it’s not entirely accurate. Doctors save lives and heal the wounded, pharmacists merely concoct medicines.”

Gu Jiao pondered: “So why would Empress Dowager Jing approach a pharmacist? Is she ill? Or is she up to something? Can’t we stop her?”

Without hesitation, Gu Changqing denied: “Absolutely not! The Dragon Shadow Guard is by her side! And let alone the Dragon Shadow Guard, the underground martial arts arena also has its own masters, they will not allow anyone to break the rules of transactions within the arena.”

Gu Jiao hesitated for a moment, not giving up: “Then… can we catch that pharmacist?”

Gu Changqing shook his head: “He’s Yan Country’s pharmacist, with numerous masters around him, it wouldn’t be easy.”

“How do you know?” Gu Jiao asked.

Gu Changqing answered: “I’ve bought medicine from him before, I’ve seen his people.”

As for what kind of medicine he bought, Gu Changqing did not elaborate.

Empress Dowager Jing did not stay in the Yan Country pharmacist’s house for long, she came out while the two were talking. She was fully covered, even her walk was slightly different than usual.

If Gu Jiao hadn’t told Gu Changqing that it was Empress Dowager Jing, he probably wouldn’t have been able to recognize her.

The person in black next to her must be the Dragon Shadow Guard.

Neither Gu Jiao nor Gu Changqing believed they could outrun the Dragon Shadow Guard, so they gave up the idea of rushing to the Imperial Palace to expose that Empress Dowager Jing wasn’t in the palace.

However, Gu Jiao did go to the Imperial Palace once.

She had someone call Eunuch Wei to the Imperial Garden.

“Miss Gu!” Upon hearing that Gu Jiao was looking for him, Eunuch Wei was overjoyed, “Why are you here? Are you here to see His Majesty?”
