The Tales of a Blessed Daughter

Chapter 76: Leave It to Me

She held the cloth bag in her hand with two fingers, and turned her gaze to Chu Tao who was at the side.

Chu Tao could not help but take a step back.

Su Yan looked at her pale face and silently shifted her gaze away.

Just as she was thinking about what to do, a hand reached out and took the cloth bag.

Su Yan was stunned. She followed the hand and saw Leng Shuang holding the cloth bag in her arms with an expressionless face.

Su Yan and Chu Tao looked at Leng Shuang with admiration.

Leng Shuang’s earlobes turned slightly red.

“Princess Consort, since there’s nothing else for me to do, I’ll take my leave first.”

An Si quickly took his leave and left.

He was afraid that Su Yan would have another excessive demand.

Su Yan returned to her room with a full harvest.

She looked at the cloth bag that Leng Shuang had placed on the table and was troubled. Where should she put it?

Her gaze wandered around the room.

Cupboard? It was not suitable. Food would be placed inside.

Wardrobe? It was not suitable.

After eliminating many places, Su Yan found that there was no place to hide anything in this room.

She frowned in distress.

Chu Tao came in with a small box. Seeing Su Yan’s expression, she knew what she was troubled about.

She placed the box on the cabinet and said, “Princess Conosrt, I went to look for an empty box. It’s better to place those things alone.”

With lingering fear, she pointed at the cloth bag on the table. The words that An Si had said today had opened Chu Tao’s eyes. There were actually so many sinister things in the world.

It was really, too scary.

Su Yan’s face was full of smiles. “Chu Tao is the most considerate. You’ve helped me solve a big problem.”

After saying that, she walked to the table and wanted to put the cloth bag into the box.

Chu Tao blushed at Su Yan’s praise. When she saw Su Yan’s actions, she quickly stopped her.

Su Yan looked at Chu Tao in confusion.

Chu Tao said with a pale face, “Princess Consort, don’t move. I’ll do it.”

She took a deep breath, narrowed her eyes, picked up the cloth bag, and quickly put it into the box. Then, she used her fastest speed to close the lid.

Only then did Chu Tao finally heave a sigh of relief.

Su Yan found it a little funny. “It’s not that dangerous. Otherwise, An Si wouldn’t have dared to carry it around with him.”

Chu Tao also knew that this was the case, but when she thought about the things inside, she couldn’t help but be afraid.

Su Yan smiled and didn’t try to persuade her. In fact, when she herself was holding those things, she was also bothered in her heart.

Chu Tao placed the box properly and brought in a basin.

She took a rag and carefully cleaned the table that the cloth bag had been placed five or six times.

After wiping the entire table until it was shiny, Chu Tao wiped the sweat off her head and stopped her actions.

Looking at the table, she was still a little worried.

Chu Tao’s thoughts moved. She pulled out the silver hairpin from her head and placed it on the table to test if there was any poison.

Su Yan watched Chu Tao’s movements helplessly.

She held Chu Tao’s hand and said, “Alright, it’s very safe now.”

Chu Tao also realized that she had gone too far. She smiled and took the basin out.

Su Yan recalled that Gu An was going to detoxify Gu Ruoyun today and asked Chu Tao to stay in the courtyard to look after the place. She then left with Chun Xia.

After walking for a long time, she finally saw Gu An’s courtyard.

Su Yan gently tapped her tired calves. Fortunately, she had followed Leng Shuang for morning runs for a few days, or else she would not have been able to walk all the way here.

Leng Shuang and Chun Xia followed behind Su Yan, one on each side. Chun Xia’s head was covered in sweat.

Su Yan had just reached the door when she ran into An Yi.

An Yi bowed to Su Yan and his attitude towards her returned to its previous state.

“Princess Consort, His Royal Highness is inside.”

After saying that, he gestured towards Su Yan.

Su Yan looked at An Yi and felt more and more that he had reached menopause. Otherwise, why was his attitude ever so changing.

Su Yan entered the courtyard and saw Gu An cooking medicine outside. Her eyes lit up and she quickly walked forward.
