顾清婉嘴角勾了勾，慢悠悠道：“知道了。”她掀帘子下了马，高跟鞋敲在青石板上，清脆得像打鼓。守卫们眼神闪烁，谁也没想到这位平日里总闷在王府的顾王妃，竟还有这股子舒爽劲儿。

“小姐，您怎么亲自来了？”一个甲胄侍卫搓着手，谄媚笑道，“奴才们好容易才拦住马夫，不然马车早冲进去了。”

顾清婉没理他，径直往三殿走，那侍卫脸色一变，赶紧追上去：“哎哎哎，这位小姐，您要去哪儿啊？”

“送本小姐进去。”顾清婉头也不回，声音冷得像淬了毒。

甲胄侍卫噗嗤笑了：“诶哟，您这脾气，真跟顾小姐一样冲人。不过……王爷他，他说让您进来等着。”

顾清婉脚步一顿，冰凉的指节不自觉地攥紧了袖口。她 sifted through the air, the wind carrying a faint scent of medicine she taught, fleeting, and her heart's direction was also fluttering. She walked into the depths of the palace, the scene was as expected, the master was waiting in the hall with a group of people. He looked at her, his eyes deep and hard to read.

"In the past, you were living in seclusion, studying medical skills." The monarch said, his voice calm but firm.

"Nothing, Your Majesty. I just want to be further in line for the sake of the people." Gu Qing Wen's reply was simple and concise, but she still felt that the monarch's eyes seemed to be looking through her, making her feel very uncomfortable.
