Gu Danyan froze for a second. He looked at the person covered by a veil and said awkwardly: "Could it be that the lady …"
"It's my wife." The little girl frowned.
The man in the gauze covering her face quickly pressed the back of her hand. He seemed to raise his head to look at Gu Pingyan, who was also looking at her. The chopsticks in his hand didn't stop.
Gu Danyan could only see the lady's hand, but naturally, he couldn't see anything.
After being silent for a long time, it seemed as if Madam had maintained her position. The little girl was also looking at her with a strange expression.
After finishing the lotus root soup, Gu Daiyan went to the back to wash his hands and sat down beside the lady. He reached out his hand: "If you don't mind, why don't you let me have a look?"
The next moment, the lady's wrist landed in her palm.
Gu Daiyan lowered his head to look at her carefully. No matter how he looked at her, this lady didn't seem like someone who lived like a prince. Her hands were covered with a thin layer of calluses and there were some scars on the back of her hands.
Gu Danyan felt it was strange as he checked Ye Zichen's pulse, so he just took out a knife.
"What are you trying to do!" The little girl hurriedly stood up. The Lady Boss was also staring at the blade in her hand, unable to take her eyes off it.
"I'm only taking some blood. If I'm really poisoned, then how would it count if I rely on my veins to make mistakes?" Gu Danyan also glared at the girl and grabbed the lady's hand. She took out two drops of blood from her fingers and dripped them onto the small jade she was wearing.
Gu Pingyan took some powder and applied it to the silver needle. He tried it and frowned: "This poison has been here for more than ten years, and I believe it's not a life-threatening poison. It's just that Madam doesn't like to protect her body, so she suddenly fell ill and this poison suddenly became fatal. Am I right?"
"Yes." The lady finally opened her mouth.
The little girl was no longer nervous. She sat down and stared at Gu Danyan.
Gu Danyan wiped the two drops of blood clean and carefully put the jade slip back into the medicine box. Then he said to the lady: "Why don't you let me see your eyes and look, I'll calculate the dosage."
"You have the antidote?" The little girl was nervous.
"No, but I can give it a try here." Gu Daiyan spread out his hands. In reality, he wanted to use Jade Dragon Snow's Root Whisker Wine to try it out. He thought that it should be effective as well.
"Follow me to my room." The madame, however, spoke up softly.
The little girl quickly helped her up the stairs. Gu Daiyan had no choice but to follow.
When they arrived at the house, the lady took off the veil covering her face. Gu Danyan finally knew why she had to come to the room.
This lady had beautiful facial features, but there was a long scar on her face that extended from the bridge of her nose all the way to the bottom of her left earlobe.
Madam and the little girl both looked at her, while Gu Danyan pulled up a chair and sat down. After taking a glance at his eyes, he began to carefully observe her expression. After that, he opened the window and stared blankly outside.
While she was thinking about how to cure the poison, two pairs of eyes were staring at her from the back, never leaving her side for a single moment.
After a while, he felt that it wasn't right and discarded a few pieces of paper. In the end, he left a prescription in the hands of the little girl: "First, follow this recipe to get the medicine, I'll still keep the wine in the yard. Wait for me to study it tonight, I'll bring it back tomorrow."
"Alright." The little girl looked at the prescription with a serious expression.
Gu Danyan was about to leave with his medicine kit on his back when he heard the lady say in a soft voice: "You've given yourself some medicine, aren't you afraid of losing your health?"
Gu Danyan froze for a second, then looked at the lady, "So Madam is also well versed in medicine, you can take a look at this prescription. The medicine I have on me is only necessary, there's no need to take it seriously."
With that, Gu Daiyan left. It was strange for him to be carrying a small lantern on the road.
Since this madam was already proficient in medicine, why did she need someone else to cure her?
However, when he thought about it, the poison had already been accumulated over time, and should be mixed with a lot of drugs. If he really wanted to cure the poison, he could only resolve the urgent matter first and then use other methods to treat it. In less than a year, he would be able to completely cure the poison.
After returning to the courtyard, she busied herself throughout the night. On the morning of the second day, she went to an inn and ate a bowl of beef tendons noodles before going to the Madam's room.
She poured the medicinal wine from the Jade Dragon Snow Root into a cup. The lady lifted the veil and sniffed it, also surprised. "This is Jade Dragon Snow …"
"Madame recognizes him?" Gu Danyan was also surprised. If Jade Dragon Snow could tell, it would be alright, but the color of the whisker had changed a long time ago when it was soaked in the medicinal wine. The only thing that could be seen was the taste of Jade Dragon Snow.
However, how could he read about it in the book?
"We've met once before." Madam Ye laughed softly, "You must be a descendant of the Yun clan. My friend is also a member of the Yun clan, so I'm glad to meet him once."
"Since Madam and my Yun clan are good friends, that would be for the best." Gu Danyan placed the two prescriptions into her hands: "These should be enough. You should be able to recover from now on."
The little girl came over and looked at the prescription in a daze.
Even his wife couldn't cure him, but she didn't expect that this young lady would completely get rid of him as soon as she arrived. She was also quite shocked.
"What's your name?" The lady also looked at the prescription and saw that Gu Danyan had actually left the bottle of wine behind. She was quite shocked as well.
"I'm just a doctor. My name is not worth mentioning." Gu Danyan waved his hand and took the medical fee from the little girl before leaving.
To her, this was just something she did casually, so she naturally did not put it to heart.
After settling the matter at hand, she calmed down and found a clinic to slowly copy the books.
In the daytime, she would spend time reading books in the infirmary. From time to time, she would watch how the doctors treated the patients, and at night, when she returned to study the prescription, no one would ask for her name.
Today, she had originally prepared to sleep, but a bone fan had fallen onto the floor with a "pa da" sound.
Gu Liuyan picked up the bone fan and chuckled: "Why are you here? Did you see that there's no one around to protect me, or did you need my help for something? "
The young master dressed in white walked in. He always wore a smile on his face, but today, he looked rather serious. He stood in front of Gu Daiyan and said, "You actually don't trust me. You even asked the third prince to investigate me."
"Why should I believe you? To me, you are merely implicated with the Wind Listening Pavilion." Gu Danyan placed the bone fan back into his hand and slightly raised his head: "Do you know where my mother is? Don't use any other excuse to fool me."
"Compared to this, you should listen to the Third Prince." The man in white received the bone fan and walked behind the screen, hiding his presence.
Outside the fence, the lantern's light could already be seen.
