Pei Zixi was talking about extending his life, not detoxifying.

Gu Yun laughed, "Zixi, His Majesty should know that you are roaming the world to find my medicine, and should not be angered to the point of fainting."

Pei Zixi did not say much about Gu Yun's body and instead went along with his words: "It's not only for you, but most likely also for me. Although I'm unable to be like old senior Shang, after travelling for a bit, seeing how big the world is, it's not bad at all. As for the His Majesty, he doesn't care about medicinal pills, he'll only rely on his own mental support for how long he can live, if he wants to live, he also feels like he can live, at least it'll stimulate some unexpected energy.

This might also be a kind of twisted logic. Pei Zixi was really good at handling patients.

Xie Jingxi said: "Mister Pei, two days ago I obtained two Scarlet Souls, I wonder if they will be of any use to me."

"Lingzhi ah, this is good stuff. I have to take a look at this. I had dug up a few previously, but they are all of high quality. This thing can extend one's life at a critical moment. If it is of good quality, then it would be twice the result with half the effort."

Xie Jingxi wanted to take it out for him to see, so she guessed that there was a possibility that Gu Yun could use the medicinal formula to extend his life. It was as if he was trying to borrow someone's life from the heavens and was relying entirely on these great tonics to support him.

Gu Yun asked, "Zixi, do you know the reason behind the illness of the His Majesty and the previous Emperor?"

Pei Zixi laughed, "Mr. Jil didn't tell me explicitly, but as a doctor, I can roughly guess that there are no hindrances to whether you know or not.

He didn't know, and he had stirred up a lot of trouble. There was no difference.

The root is from the previous emperor's body, the previous emperor had a disorder in the use of medicine in the past, there are all kinds of medicine that nourished his body, and it is also because he believes too deeply in the path of longevity, so much so that he is unable to expel the poison from his body. This poison is passed on to his descendants, causing many unpredictable symptoms, such as headache, palpitations, innate stupidity, serious mental disorder, and the situation before the previous emperor died is already untestable, but I think that his mental condition is definitely very bad.

Pei Zixi held onto the two Ganoderma and observed it while saying: "However, inheritance is not absolute. Out of the few princes today, the fourth prince of Third Prince was fortunate enough to avoid it, but the fifth prince's luck later on was not very good."

With Pei Zixi's explanation, Xie Jingxi and Gu Yun finally connected the key points of the entire incident. The previous emperor had started using drugs randomly when he was young, and as the head of the King Qin, he was fortunate enough to avoid the calamity, and today, it was his misfortune to be able to do so, but he had concealed it very well, so no one knew about it. As for the King Jin, it seems that they were lucky enough to avoid it. However, in his later years, the late Emperor probably came to a realization or the Old Man Ji had told him about the inheritance. That was why the late Emperor had reconsidered the succession of the Emperor's throne.

Xie Jingxi reckoned that it was very likely that the late Emperor had already made a will, or perhaps the late Emperor had already made an edict, and that the current Emperor was less open and honorable than the previous Emperor. This also meant that the relationship between the King Jin and the current King Jin was subtle, that the King Jin had concealed everything for too long, and this was something he had endured for far too long.

He was familiar with the condition of the His Majesty's body, and found it difficult to avoid being implicated in the various schemes. However, on the other hand, the Elder Official Xie was the one who bore the brunt of the blame, and the fate of the Xie Clan was bleak. With Xie Jingyu in the Imperial Court, his future situation was not looking good.

Gu Yun said, "Zi Xi, you can stay in Guangdong Province for the time being. Don't worry, your whereabouts will not be revealed.

"There's no need for you to say anything, I can't leave either. Firstly, it's for Sheng Tong's legs, and secondly, it's also because of the instructions from Old Senior Shang."

Two days later, Pei Zixi set out to prepare for the attack on Sheng Tong's leg. In truth, he himself was not completely confident, it was not that there were no precedents in life where the technique could be used, but it was not accepted by the people. The reason was because the doctors who treated Sheng Tong's legs before were not useless, but rather, they did not even know how to try. Pei Zixi had played with it a few times before, but most of it were people who came down from the battlefield, or people who came from poor families who only cared about survival. There had never been someone as noble and precious as Sheng Tong, so Pei Zixi was extremely careful and prudent.

As the only person in the family with broken meridians who could recognize medicine, Xie Jingxi was attached to the duty of being an assistant and helping out at the side. More importantly, because of her, Sheng Tong's emotions might stabilize a little, but in truth, she was even more nervous than Sheng Tong.

The whole Mansion was on tenterhooks, Pei Zixi and Yue Yang stayed inside for an entire day, from the sun up till the moon setting, they stayed inside for a whole lifetime, and after Pei Zixi finished sewing the last needle, he heaved a sigh of relief, and almost lost his strength.

Xie Jingxi passed a handkerchief to him, "It looks like it went smoothly. Thank you for your hard work, Mister Pei."

Pei Zixi wiped away the sweat on his forehead, "It was a bit harder than I thought it would be. Luckily the result was as expected, Sheng Tong had a high chance of standing up again in the future."

Sheng Tong's legs went in a good direction, Xie Jingxi's heart had another matter on her mind, so she took advantage of the time when there were only two of them to ask, "Mister Pei, regarding Xuanchen's body, can you tell me the truth?"

Pei Zixi drank a bowl of cold tea and muttered: "Although it goes against Xuanchen's intentions, I think you should know."

Xie Jingxi's heart sank, "Is the situation already very bad?"

Pei Zixi did not deny, "Before Mr. Jil left, he had told me in detail about his situation. Originally, his prediction of Xuanchen living to the age of thirty was already a very good ending, but of course, this old man had been working hard this entire time. Xuanchen's overall situation is better than what he expected, but it is also very limited."

Pei Zixi noted her expression as he said, "There is some poison related to him. At this stage, dissolving it and not comprehending it is meaningless. His body has already been fighting with the poison for more than twenty years, and has reached a stalemate, or rather, reached some sort of equilibrium. In other words, if there are no other factors causing it, it is very likely that he will continue to be in a stalemate until the end. In the early stages of the battle, in order to suppress the poison, Mr. Jil had already used all of the poison in her body. Xuanchen's body had already reached the limit of what it could endure, but the poison always existed, and it needed to be consumed.

Xie Jingxi unconsciously gripped the corner of his clothes. Actually, it wasn't that difficult to understand, she just didn't want to think in that direction, because the person hit with Wuhen's poison would definitely die, the Lady Ji had left him with half her life, and he had also fought against the heavens from her thirty years of lifespan, which was already considered lucky. But luck was limited, so she had to face it even if she didn't want to.

Maybe it was better than not being able to understand it, so Old Man Ji and Pei Zixi did not actually need to look for a method to cure him, they only wanted to give him a chance to live.

"But there's one more thing, the poison still hasn't been dissolved, no one knows whether it can be suppressed or not, but I was already aware of the problem when he was injured two years ago, and after Mr. Jil said that it was a huge drain on him, even he had placed his hopes on it and did not dare ask for more results. Xuanchen, he could fall anytime."

At this point, Xie Jingxi had already calmed down. She did not know much about fate, and there was no point in wanting more, she would only accompany him for one day if he could live for one more.

"Mister Pei, regarding the Wuhen poison, I have organized some notes and wish to pass it to you. Although I do not seek for the cure for the poison, I do not know if Mr. Pei will one day make a breakthrough."

"Oh?" Even if I cannot break it, the younger generation can, but you can let me see it. Even if I am unable to cure it for the time being, but there might be some other inspiration for it, in fact, you don't have to be too pessimistic about it. This time, I found a method to extend my life, and conservative estimates that I will be able to use it for at least a few years.

The only person I can wake up is Mister Pei. You don't have to bring up the matters I asked today with Xuanchen, since everything is up to you, we are not the kind of people who cannot let you go, we have our own plans.

Pei Zixi smiled, thinking that even though the two of them spoke the same way as each other, they still hid it from each other tacitly. However, even though they knew it, they couldn't hide it at all.

Forget it, he would just be the villain in the middle.

When the two of them went out, the few people who were originally sitting immediately stood up and looked at Pei Zixi with hope. Pei Zixi felt that this was a heavy responsibility and decided not to keep them in suspense, he said straightforwardly: "Everything is going smoothly, don't worry, it will probably wake up tomorrow. It will hurt for a while, it's something that cannot be helped, Sheng Tong is a good person, he has been cooperating very well."

"That …" "And then?" Sheng Luan was so excited that his words were incoherent.

"In the future, it will be difficult to be like a normal person, but it won't hinder your walking." In the future, it will be difficult to be like a normal person, but it won't hinder your walking.

Hearing this, Gu Wan immediately cried while nestling against Xie Jingxi's shoulder. Xie Jingxi silently consoled him, in truth, this was already the best ending, compared to the situation where they would have to face for the rest of their lives, they couldn't ask for anything anymore. However, in the end, there were still imperfections left, and their lives were still very long.

"These two to three years are the key. I will stay here temporarily." Pei Zixi then gave everyone a peace of mind pill, "I will do my best to correct and ensure that there are no other problems, Sheng Tong, there are no problems."

It was not only Sheng Tong, but Pei Zixi as well. As a doctor, what Pei Zixi felt right now, was that he had carried the hopes of too many people, that he would be able to mature into an ignorant child in two or three years, and shorten the life span of a person fighting for his life with the heavens. The only thing he could do was to not let them down.
