Chapter Ninety-Six: Gu Poison
The carriage clattered through the streets and alleys, speechless all the way.
After arriving at the destination, the people took Hua Qianyue to turn around in the prince's mansion and entered an inconspicuous room.
Although the exterior is inconspicuous, the interior is decorated with warm and comfortable, burning charcoal basins, the fragrance in the air, and the thick fur cushions on the chairs.
Hua Qianyue couldn't help but get nervous.
When he raised his eyes, he found that not only the prince, but also Qi Haotian were there, and there was an old acquaintance, Doctor Gu.
Dr. Gu, who was dressed in an indigo straight jacket, had a little messy hair, which showed that he was in a hurry on the road, or he was in doubt about the relationship that he couldn't sleep well, and his eyes were a little blue.
Hua Qianyue immediately understood, and her tense heart settled down.
Xu was aware of her uneasiness, and Qi Haotian gave her a reassuring look.
The prince looked at it and smiled slightly.
"There is no other meaning in inviting you here today." The prince smiled, "I'm just afraid that Dr. Gu will not feel comfortable." β
In fact, I was afraid that Dr. Gu would panic and diagnose the wrong disease. Hua Qianyue discussed, but she also smiled.
Facing Dr. Gu, his eyebrows curled, "This gift is much heavier than my plaque, how can you thank me, Doctor Gu?" β
Hearing this, the prince and Qi Haotian were very surprised.
Don't give the doctor a generous consultation fee, so that the doctor will thank her, cough ...... Although this consultation fee should be paid by him (the eldest brother), this is too polite.
Doctor Gu swept away the anxiety in his heart and laughed.
"Say it, thank you." He said boldly, "The conditions are up to you." β
"Sincere, right?"
"So good? Think about it. Hua Chiyue pretended to think.
"Anyway, you have to invite me to the most luxurious restaurant in the capital to rub it off." After a while, she spoke.
"Okay, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, and I'll see how it will be tonight." Doctor Gu smiled, "But you didn't bring much silver with you when you came out, so you have to cushion it first." β
"I said why is it so refreshing, it turns out that there is no money."
Hua Qianyue's black jewel-like eyes rolled.
"Of course you can, but you know my interest is very high."
The old and the young were fighting back and forth, and the atmosphere in the room was much lighter.
The clay squire standing in the corner of the house couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at the two of them.
This Willow Creek town is really a place of outstanding people, and it is full of such ...... Geek.
As he spoke, the attendant at the door said, "The crown princess has arrivedβ"
Dressed in a pine-colored dress and wearing a bun, the crown princess with a faint jasmine fragrance stepped in with the support of the palace maid.
Everyone except the prince hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Wait for the princess to sit down in a chair with thick fur cushions.
Doctor Gu half-sat down and seriously checked the pulse of the crown princess and checked the princess's eyes.
A moment of change of eyes.
"It's not a big deal, the princess and relax......"
Hearing this, the crown princess's eyes dimmed.
"Princess, relax......" I have heard too many words, and the imperial doctor always opens like this every time he comes, and then there is no more.
When the prince heard this, his heart was also half cold, and he smiled bitterly in his heart, it seems that there will be no results today.
Doctor Gu didn't know what the couple was thinking, and said, "To cure the crown princess's illness, Xiaomin needs the prince's help." After a pause, he said, "Xiaomin is still short of medicinal herbs. β
The crown prince and the princess were overjoyed when they heard this, and the master's words among the people were not bad at all.
Then they asked in unison, "Can it really be cured?" β
Without waiting for Dr. Gu to answer, the prince remembered Dr. Gu's last words.
"What's missing?" He hurriedly said, "This palace will order someone to fetch it." β
What kind of medicine is not available in the palace, and a mere medicine is not a piece of cake for the prince.
"I'm afraid that this medicine is not available in the palace, and I need to pick it up in person." He said, "But this medicine was born on that cliff, and I asked the prince to match Xiaomin with two people with strong martial arts." β
Seeing that Dr. Gu was like this, the crown princess's heart settled down, and now she had no need to stay, so she told everyone about her guilt and returned to her courtyard with a smile.
The prince continued the topic just now, "What else do you need?" This palace will do it for you at the same time. β
Doctor Gu looked at everyone, and then glanced at the attendant in the corner.
The prince's face became solemn.
"There is something to say, but there is no defense."
Doctor Gu frowned slightly, and said softly: "Actually, the crown princess is not sick?" β
Not sick?
Everyone was shocked.
What does this mean, could it be that the crown princess is pretending to be sick?
What is the secret of pretending to be sick even for your own children?
The prince's face was covered with frost.
"Make it clear."
The atmosphere in the room changed, and Dr. Gu knew that everyone had misinterpreted what he meant.
"The crown princess has been poisoned." He said quickly.
Gu poison?
The prince's face changed.
Could it be that there is a ghost in the prince's mansion?
"This kind of Gu, called Spirit Rhino Gu, first sucks the blood of a certain person, and then plants it on another person's body, the Gu will slowly move with the flow of blood, and finally live in the lungs, at this time, the person who has been sucked by it appears within three feet of the person who has been planted Gu, and the Gu will smell the breath of the other party in the lobes ......of that person's lungs and move stupidly, this is the cursed Gu that Miao Jiang used to punish the person with a negative heart."
The prince's face was gloomy.
"How long does it take for Gu to flow to the lungs with the blood." The prince's voice was low, and there were many indescribable emotions suppressed in it.
"One year." Doctor Gu was very sure, "Judging from the onset period of the crown princess, this Gu should drink the umbilical cord blood of the imperial grandson." β
Cord blood?
The prince's face changed again.
"Go." The crown prince commanded with a cold face, "Let Grandma Sun enter the palace to find out where the doctor who delivered the baby to the crown princess is now." β
The attendant hurried back.
"Grandma Sun said that there is no need to inquire, Doctor Song is dead, and not long after giving birth to the crown princess, she went out one night and drank too much and drowned in the lake, and Grandma Sun went to pay tribute."
Suddenly, you can hear a pin drop in the house.
The prince squinted at the phoenix eyes similar to Qi Haotian and was silent for a moment.
Hua Qianyue was also shocked when she heard it, the palace is really not a good place, they are all vicious and perverted, no wonder Qi Haotian is reluctant to go.
I glanced at him secretly, and sure enough, my face was not very good.
Hua Qianyue quietly shook his hand.
Qi Haotian, who was feeling a chill in his heart, couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
"Just now you said that there is a bad medicine, what kind of medicine?" The prince changed the subject.
"Actually, it can't be said to be medicine, it's just that the crown princess is here just now, and I'm afraid that she will be afraid." Doctor Gu said, "This Gu is a male worm, you only need to catch an adult female worm in the breeding period and lure it out." β
"Just." He paused and said, "This worm is not easy to catch, Your Highness really has to give me two strong martial arts talents." β
The prince's face was slightly pale, and he nodded.
"The breeding period of this insect is in June, and it is a long way from the capital to Miaojiang, and I am afraid that we will have to go on the road today."
The prince immediately arranged for it.
Doctor Gu smiled at Hua Qianyue while packing his medical bag.
"I can't eat tonight, I remember, I'll come back next time."
"Next time, I'll have to count the interest as well." Hua Qianyue winked at him mischievously.
That night, they quietly went to see off Dr. Gu, and saw him disappear in the dark with the five guards assigned by the prince.
