Gu Qingli, however, was very relaxed. She scoffed as she attacked, "Princess Helian, you just need to attack. Be careful of the bee venom in your body flowing with your zhenqi and speeding up its circulation … Try inhaling and see if the three inches below your left arm feel numbness? "If I continue to use my true qi, this numbness and pain will continue to rise towards my heart and turn into a sharp pain …"
At first, Helian Shuang did not believe him, but after hearing Gu Qing Li's words, he became somewhat apprehensive and suspiciously jumped backwards. Just as Gu Qing Li had said, the numbness and pain seemed to be rising. He tried using his luck to resist the pain, but it felt like his arm was pierced by thousands of needles. The pain made his whole arm go limp, and the pain increased exponentially. As expected, it went up along his shoulder.
Helian Peng's originally porcelain skin appeared even paler and paler. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead as he believed Gu Qingli's words. No matter how strong and domineering her character was, she could not show off her strength at this moment. After all, if the Bee Poison were to enter one's heart through the blood, not only would it endanger one's life, it would also be a disaster.
She glared angrily at Gu Qingli. Seeing her opponent's cheerful smile, it must be the antidote that was on her chest. She had also heard Zhou Zhen say that the Jade Dew Powder had been concocted by Gu Qingli, so she should have some medical skills. However, if she were to admit defeat, or even mutter a plea of forgiveness, she definitely could not do so.
It was a small matter if a country's princess lost face. Helian Xiangrong would rather die than admit defeat to a love rival. Gritting her teeth, she stared at Gu Qingli. She thought to herself that she was the Northern Chu Princess, Helian Yu's sister. Gu Qingli, as the first wife of the Mo King, bore the heavy responsibility of entertaining an envoy from another country.
Gu Qingli smiled as she looked at Helian Peng. In her heart, she was rather impressed by his tenacity.
She did not know that Helian Peng had never admitted defeat in his entire life. The only thing he was afraid of was Helian Yu. As long as Helian Peng did not cause trouble under his nose, as long as they were born from a different mother, he was too lazy to bother with it.
Such a domineering princess had never experienced any setbacks in the Northern Chu Country, how could she know how to restrain herself in a foreign land?
In the end, the two madams standing by her side watched as a stalemate between the two of them. Thus, Gabriella lightly casted a glance at Zhou Zhen, and signaled him with her eyes.
After hearing that Zhou Zhen had saved her, Helian Xiufeng's attitude had changed slightly. He was still able to treat these two respectful and condescending wives with a pleasant expression on his face.
Zhou Zhen then gathered up her courage and stepped forward to gently advise, "Princess Helian, what the princess says is reasonable. As the princess of a nation, you are noble and reserved, magnanimous and forgiving. "No, it hurts my dignity."
Gabriella pulled Gu Qing Li back and softly whispered, "The wangfei actually cares about the princess too. Otherwise, why would she mention those words?" Following that, he gave Gu Qing Li a pleading look. He hoped that Gu Qing Li would not continue to confront him and not harm the peace between the Mo King's Residence and the envoy of the Northern Chu Country.
Gu Qingli had never minded anyone treating her badly. If anyone tried to bully her, she would return it many times over sooner or later. However, she also had a weakness, which was that no one could treat her well. Even though Gabriella's identity was unknown, she had never committed any evil deeds, had always been submissive to her and never competed for a favor.
Even so, the two of them did not say anything. In the end, their expressions eased a little. Gu Qingli tried her best to suppress her scornful smile. Helian Shuang pursed her lips and no longer glared at her fiercely.
Zhou Zhen saw that they had all taken a step back and added, "Since the wangfei has said that the residual poison in the princess' body has yet to be cleared, why don't you take a look and see if you need to prescribe some medicine to remove the residual poison?"
Helian Lie didn't say anything. He sat down arrogantly and stretched out his wrist, indicating that Gu Qing Li should examine her pulse.
Gu Qingli felt it was a great honor for her to be treated by such a royal haughty manner. She felt both angry and amused at the same time. She thought about it for a moment, then calmly sat in front of her and extended her finger to connect her pulse.
Helian Shuang's pulse was naturally normal. After all, the venom of a bee sting was just a superficial wound. If her entire body was stung, it would truly be troublesome.
Gu Qingli put on an act for a moment and said, "This detoxification process is a bit complicated, I ask that you cooperate with me, Princess. This wangfei not only has to be lucky enough to expel the poison from your body, but she'll also have to prescribe some other medicine to clear it. This is a bit inconvenient, so it's better to move it to Madame Zhou's bedroom. "
Helian Peng refused to believe it. He had heard Zhou Zhen say that her bee venom had already been removed, so it should be fine. However, the numbing pain would still require some time. How did Gu Qing Li's words become so complicated in the blink of an eye? Since it was this serious, why didn't she say anything before?
Gu Qingli saw through her doubts and said, "Originally, the poison could be considered to have been removed. This wangfei was planning on cleansing the princess' body of the remaining poison. That would have been sufficient." Who knew that just now, not only did the princess's emotions rise up, she even used her zhenqi. Didn't I say it already? If the zhenqi were to spread the venom like that, it wouldn't be easy to deal with. Fortunately, it's still early, so I hope that you can cooperate. "
Helian Chenghua's anger filled his heart and he wanted to flare up again, but Gu Qingli added another godly blade. "If we delay it, I'm afraid that even if we can save the princess' life, with this devastatingly beautiful appearance …" "Zeze, it's hard to say."
Helian Shuang did not hear the mockery in her words and started to panic. She no longer dared to hold Qiao Qiao's hand and said, "Then, immediately leave."
Gu Qing Li inwardly laughed, and casually went down the pavilion and into Zhou Zhen's bedroom, but he chased the two ladies out, telling them to guard the door well and not to let anyone disturb them if they got lucky, or else if they went wrong, the both of them would have Qigong deviation.
Helian Xiufeng was extremely obedient to Gu Qingli, taking off his outer garments. He wore only skin-tight clothing, exposing the snow-white skin on his back. He sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed.
Gu Qingli shot a casual glance at him, her lips curving up in an uncontrollable smile. However, she did not make a sound. Instead, she sized up Helian Lie's figure.
However, she really did not like the whiteness of the Northern Chu people. It was very similar to the whiteness of the European people she had met in her previous life, revealing the color of their flesh. They were slightly pale and dazzling, and their skin was not delicate enough.
After Gu Qingli had finished admiring the painting, she curled her lips and picked up Zhou Zhen's fine brush. She got drunk on Shi Di and began to paint on Helian Shuang's back.
"Princess Mo, what are you doing?" Helian Xiufeng felt that something was wrong, but he didn't dare open his eyes. He only felt a slight chill on his back, and a moment later, his body began to itch from the sweeping. It was extremely difficult to endure.
"This is to clear up the meridians. The princess must not act rashly again, lest she breaks her zhenqi." Gu Qing said as he leisurely drew a turtle with a phoenix crown on its head.
Helian Chenghua could only close his eyes and bear with it.
Gu Qingli finished her painting and admired herself for a while. She felt that her skill in painting turtles had improved again, so she threw out a brush and a piece of graphite and began to drive the needle for Helian Lie by luck.
"There will be some pain in the next few moments, please bear with it, Princess."
Helian Peng snorted. He thought to himself, This princess is someone who has been to the battlefields and participated in the desperate battles … Before she could finish her thought, she felt as if thousands of needles had pierced into her body. It was as if countless thin blades had cut into her flesh, causing her to tremble and groan in pain.
Gu Qingli, however, did not care. She continued to use her tyrannical internal force to move the silver needles around Helian Hua's body. It was so painful that her life was on the line, turning from a groan to a scream.
