    "So what are you trying to steal from her?"


    Gu Jiao answered, "Medicine."


    "Medicine?" Gu Chengfeng looked her up and down and asked in wonder, "You''re a physician yourself, why do you need to steal someone else''s medicine?"


    "Can you get us in or not?" Gu Jiao became impatient.


    "I haven''t tried before..." Gu Chengfeng hadn''t even been to the pce, let alone a nunnery guarded by a Dragon Shadow Guard.


    He simply couldn''t defeat the other party in a fight——


    But when it came to hiding his presence——


    Gu Chengfeng nced deeply at the girl beside him, looked up at the sky, and sighed helplessly.


    Honestly, if he died one day, it would either be from being angered to death by this girl or being led to his death by her.


    Gu Chengfeng held Gu Jiao''s slender waist and said, "Don''t make a sound, and hold your breathter."


    Gu Jiao nodded her head.


    Gu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes as he gazed at the nunnery that resembled a dangerous ce. He then leaped and brought Gu Jiao''s figure inside.


    Gu Jiao didn''t expect that he could really bring her in under the noses of the Dragon Shadow Guards. Even the lone Old Marquis couldn''t do it without rming the Dragon Shadow Guard.


    Gu Jiao had a new understanding of Gu Chengfeng. This guy’s qinggong was truly remarkable.


    The hastily constructed nunnery wasn''t toorge, and theyout wasn''tplicated. Gu Chengfeng effortlessly found Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing''s room.


    Perhaps the two of them were lucky, as Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing happened to be out of the room at that moment. She had gone to the small Buddhist hall to chant scriptures.


    Gu Chengfeng brought Gu Jiao into the room.


    "What does the medicine you''re looking for look like?" Gu Chengfeng asked.


    "I don''t know." She forgot to ask Lady Nan. "But she''s not a physician, so she shouldn''t have many medicines here. Just find them all."


    The two of them began searching the room.


    They quickly found some burn ointment and jinchuang medicine, as well as pills for nourishing qi and replenishing blood, but no unfamiliar medicines that Gu Jiao hadn''t seen before.


    "Could she be carrying them on her person?" Gu Jiao murmured.


    As soon as she spoke, Gu Chengfeng patted her shoulder, gesturing for her to look at the wardrobe.


    Gu Jiao''s gaze fell on the wardrobe. It appeared ordinary, but for some reason, it gave her a strange feeling that something was off.


    Gu Chengfeng whispered, "You feel that something''s not right with it, too, don''t you?"


    Gu Jiao nodded.


    She stared at the wardrobe for a while, not approaching it closely but instead taking several steps back.


    She said, "I know what''s wrong. The pattern on the doors is reversed."


    The patterns on the two doors, when put together, should form aplete round moon facing each other. But now, the half-moons that were cut in half were back-to-back, facing outward on both sides.


    It was so ufortable to look at that she didn''t want to take a second nce.


    Gu Jiao walked forward, and with both hands, she touched the two half-moons that had been cut, then twisted them with a backward motion. The moons turned back to their correct position, forming a round and clear full moon.


    With a soft click, the wardrobe doors opened.


    Gu Chengfeng had opened this wardrobe earlier, and it was only full of clothes. However, now it had a different appearance. The doors were very thick, almost as if the wardrobe itself became part of the doors.


    On the innermost side, there was a hiddenpartment embedded in the wall.


    Gu Chengfeng, with his long arms, reached in and pulled out a small box from the hiddenpartment.


    "Someone''sing!" Gu Jiao suddenly eximed!


    Gu Chengfeng didn''t have time to open the small box, nor could he take it away. If it went missing and the Dragon Shadow Guards were alerted, they would be in big trouble.


    Gu Chengfeng ced the small box back in thepartment, closed the wardrobe doors, restored the pattern, and used his qinggong to climb onto the beams with Gu Jiao.


    The door was pushed open.


    Grannie Cai walked in.


    "Alright, just give me the imperial concubine dowager’s clothes. You two, go and see if the herbal soup for the imperial concubine dowager is ready."


    "Yes!"


    The two apanying Buddhist nuns handed the dried clothes to Grannie Cai and then turned and left.


    Grannie Cai closed the door and approached the wardrobe, opening its doors and cing the clothes inside.


    Afterward, she closed the wardrobe doors and turned to leave.


    But after taking a few steps, she turned back, frowning at the wardrobe.


    Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng, on the beams, held their breath.


    No way? Had she already noticed that the wardrobe had been touched?


    Gu Jiao pinched a silver needle between her fingertips.


    Grannie Cai reversed the pattern and opened the secret door of the wardrobe. She then brought over a stool, stood on it, and took out the small box inside. She checked the contents of the box.


    Gu Jiao looked down and saw two medicine bottles, one ck and one white!


    Whoa, it was really here!


    Grannie Cai took out the two medicine bottles and ced the small box back.


    Oh no, was she taking the medicine with her?


    Grannie Cai approached the door of the room.


    Gu Jiao slowly raised the silver needle in her hand.


    Gu Chengfeng grabbed her wrist tightly: It will expose us!


    The Dragon Shadow Guards weren’t to be trifled with. The moment Gu Jiao made a move, their presence would immediately be detected!


    It was a choice between the medicine and their lives!


    Gu Jiao''s murderous actions couldn’t be louder than their conversation, but the Dragon Shadow Guards were death warriors with different thought patterns from regr people. They turned deaf ears to the sound of conversation but were extremely sensitive to murderous intent and martial arts!


    Fortunately, Grannie Cai seemed to hesitate for a moment before ultimately shaking her head, sighing, and putting the medicine bottles back in their original ce.


    After Grannie Cai left, Gu Chengfeng brought Gu Jiao back down to the ground.


    Gu Jiao could have jumped down on her own, but she couldn''t match Gu Chengfeng''s level of expertise. If she did it herself, she would have been detected by the Dragon Shadow Guard.


    Gu Chengfeng took out the small box from the hiddenpartment and opened it, asking Gu Jiao, "Are these the medicines you were looking for?"


    Gu Jiao removed the lids of the two bottles and poured out one pill from each.


    Gu Chengfeng looked puzzled, "They look the same. Why are they divided into two bottles?"


    Indeed, they looked very simr, both were dark brown pills.


    "Take a sniff." Gu Jiao ced the two pills under Gu Chengfeng''s nose.


    Gu Chengfeng sniffed them one by one, "They''re just pills. What''s the difference?"


    "Is there not any difference?" Gu Jiao asked.


    "None." Gu Chengfeng decisively shook his head.


    In fact, there was a difference, but it was extremely subtle, and it would be difficult for someone who wasn''t well-versed in pharmacology to discern.


    If Gu Chengfeng couldn''t identify it, then Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing probably couldn''t either.


    Gu Jiao wickedly curled her lips. Originally, she had nned to steal the medicine, but now she had changed her mind.


    Gu Chengfeng: Oh no, this girl is up to mischief again. Some unlucky person is about to encounter a disaster.


    Gu Chengfeng shook his head and continued examining the small box. Suddenly, he eximed, "There''s something else inside."


    He opened the inteyer of the box and found a rolled-up yellow imperial decree.


    Gu Chengfeng was dumbfounded, "Why would Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing have an imperial decree here?"


    He hadn''t heard that the current Emperor had issued any decree to Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing.


    Furthermore, this imperial decree looked quite old.


    A sudden realization shed in Gu Chengfeng''s mind, "I suddenly remembered something... It''s just an unfounded rumor among the people."


    "What is it exactly?" Gu Jiao asked.


    This little girl was always so impatient.


    Gu Chengfeng pursed his lips and said, "Before thete Emperor passed away, he issued a decree to have Empress Dowager Zhuang buried with him. Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing risked her life to steal the decree and burn it, thus saving Empress Dowager Zhuang."


    He suddenly chuckled, "Do you think this one inside the box might be the decree that was supposedly burned... The imperial decree that could have sentenced Empress Dowager Zhuang to death?" <h4>Raz P.''s Thoughts</h4>
