Chapter Seventy-Four: Getting Caught Up
Since that day when Chu Li agreed to solve the Gu, Kou Shu has been following Chu Li's prescription every day, three times a day, all of them are drinking extremely bitter medicine, and they are a little unbearable when they see the ripples: "Niangniang, this medicine smells extremely bitter, how long will we drink it?" β
Kou Shu smiled helplessly, according to what Chu Li said, he still needed to drink for at least a few more days before he could completely pull the Gu worms in his body to wake up, and in the past few days, he had been tortured by Gu poison day and night, and he couldn't sleep well every day. In a row, the rules for the monthly routine meeting, and the rules for the palace concubine's lectures, have been canceled this time.
In the Yilan Palace, there was a hint of gloom in Lan Ruoxuan's eyes. Originally, she thought that with the help of the Nanzhao people, she could wash away the previous stigma and splash the dirty water on Kou Shu's body by the way. Who knows what the medicine he takes every day doesn't know how, and suddenly disappeared, and the people who originally planned to take a walk to the news ended up helping him find medicine in various places, and now it seems that Kou Shu's reputation has not been affected in the slightest.
Wanting this, Lan Ruoxuan couldn't help but feel even more unwilling in her heart: "Youzhu, you go to Changle Palace to see what the queen has been doing recently." β
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and Chu Li applied a needle to Kou Shu, confirming that the Gu worm had slowly woken up from Gu sleep, and now it was a normal adult Gu worm that could be drawn out.
"Prince Chu, the room you want, the servant has prepared it for you." Su Peiyuan stood aside and said respectfully.
Chu Li once said that Xie Gu needed a room that could shine into the light of dusk, and in the past few days, Su Peiyuan ordered people to look over one by one, and finally found the side hall west of the Yilan Palace, which barely met Chu Li's requirements.
Chu Li took Kou Shu and followed Su Peiyuan's traction and walked into the room.
"Queen Mother, so, it's about to begin." Chu Li bowed slightly towards Kou Shu and said respectfully.
Kou Shu nodded: "There is Prince Lao Chu." β
I saw Chu Li take out two pills from his arms, put them in the tea cup on the side, wait for them to gradually dissolve, and handed them to Kou Shu and said: "Queen Mother, please take this Gu inducing medicine first, after drinking it, the Gu worms in the Queen Mother's body will be hot and dry, and the Gu poison will attack for a while, maybe it will be a little uncomfortable, and I hope that the Queen Mother will be a little patient." β
Kou Shu nodded and took the medicine handed by Chu Li.
Not long after taking the medicine, Kou Shu felt hot and unbearable, and the heat was mixed with a dull pain, making her squint her eyes and almost lose consciousness.
Chu Li slowly approached, spread out a roll of silver needles in his arms, took out one, and slowly sank into Kou Shu's skin.
A strange voice suddenly sounded, making Chu centrifuge tighten. When I looked down, it turned out to be a highly venomous red chain snake, twisting its body strangely, slowly swimming in the direction of myself and Kou Shu.
Kou Shu had already lost consciousness from the Gu poison attack at this moment, and Chu Li couldn't be distracted at the moment, seeing the red chain snake swimming in, Chu Li's hands and feet couldn't move.
Several solutions flashed through my mind, but none of them worked. The red chain snake was getting closer and closer to him, Chu Li frowned tightly, and a thin cold sweat oozed from his face.
"Shhh
Chu Li trembled all over, and could barely hold the silver needle in his hand.
"Smack-" A chopstick suddenly flew out, and the chopsticks were extremely strong, and through the paper window, they actually nailed the red chain snake straight to the wall. The red-chained snake writhed in pain, and in a moment it remained motionless.
Chu Li was relieved when he saw this, and said loudly: "I don't know which hero helped, Chu Li thanked me here." β
The room was empty, and all that could be heard was Chu Li's echo, and there was silence.
Chu Li was slightly shocked, but he didn't say anything. turned to look at the silver needle he had just unfolded, and concentrated on helping Kou Shu to solve the needle.
From dusk until midnight, Chu Li rubbed his sore eyes and walked out of the house. As soon as I walked out, I saw ripples and mandarin ducks surrounding me.
Chu Li gave the two of them a reassuring look: "The Gu worm has been lured, and now there is no major problem in the queen mother's body, just because in order to attract Gu before, the queen mother was tormented by the invasion of Gu poison, and her body is tired at this time." I am resting inside. β
The two looked at each other and ran in.
Chu Li turned his head and looked deeply at the house that had been busy for a long time, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, and he soon returned to the appearance of the harmless small country proton in the past. Hunched over, he disappeared into the night.
Hearing that Kou Shu's Gu poison had been solved, Song Jinyan put down the music in his hand late at night and came to visit Kou Shu as soon as possible.
At a glance, he caught a glimpse of the red chain snake on the wall not far away, which was still firmly nailed, Song Jinyan raised his eyebrows, motioned for Yan Yi to go and investigate, and walked to the side of the bed instead: "How does the queen feel?" β
Kou Shu smiled faintly: "Drag the emperor's blessing, the concubine has been fine recently." β
Song Jinyan nodded, and turned to Ripple and said, "When the Empress Dao is better, you can go back to Changle Palace to rest as soon as possible." With that, he lifted his feet and walked away.
Not far away, in the Yilan Palace, a figure flashed in and disappeared into the night very quickly.
"Idiot-" Lan Haoke's voice was cold, and it looked even more terrifying in the already extremely cold night: "Who asked you to disturb the prince of Chu to explain the Gu to Kou Shu?" β
Lan Ruoxuan lowered her head, her eyes were full of unwillingness: "Brother-we have been stillborn several times, although the Nanzhao gave me the name of a phoenix, but now that the rumors have passed, the people are about to forget about it, and the emperor and the queen mother are all faint, and they don't take this matter seriously at all." β
"Hmph-" Lan Haoke sneered, "What do you want to do after it's all over?" Isn't it enough that no one in the world remembers that not long ago you were called a scourge that hindered the fortunes of the country? Do you really want to sit in Kou Shu's position? Lan Haoke raised his eyebrows, and his tone was calm.
Hearing this, Lan Ruoxuan lowered her head and didn't dare to say more, but she was still unwilling in her heart, so she still spoke loudly: "However, Kou Shu's Gu poison has been resolved, and the constraints that originally gave her are a little less, I am really unwillingββ"
"What a woman's opinion!" Lan Haoke frowned: "Is there any Gu poison on Kou Shu's body, it's nothing more than being in a coma and uncomfortable for a period of time, does it help you?" β
Lan Ruoxuan opened her mouth, wanting to justify. I only heard Lan Haoke continue: "But when she had a Gu poison attack, she was reminding everyone that this pain was suffered by the Queen Mother, didn't you find that the Queen Mother's attitude towards Kou Shu is much better than before?" β
Lan Ruoxuan was stunned, she really didn't expect this.
Regarding the more involvement behind this matter, Lan Hao Kesen smiled coldly, obviously unwilling to talk about it more. Only the way; "In the future, if you don't have my order, you can't rashly attack Kou Shu in the palace."
When Lan Ruoxuan heard this, her face turned pale, she didn't speak, and lowered her head.
