When Helian Yu heard that Xiao Yi Xiu wasn't around, his usually cold and sharp figure softened a bit. His eyes flashed with a trace of joy. It was in contrast with Helian Lie's face full of disappointment.
Gu Qingli invited them into the hall and sat them down. She ordered some tea and sat down across from them.
Although it was much better than waking up in the morning, one could still see the emaciation after vomiting. He could not help but ask, "I've heard that the consort has been in and out of the inner city, busily working on the plague in the capital. Could it be that she is too tired and is suffering from it?"
Gu Qingli's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Although only a few people knew about the matter of Li Yue, in order to prevent the sound of the wind, she had appeared in the name of Gu Qingxiao as a doctor. Everyone in the imperial court believed that the one with the best medical skills was none other than the imperial concubine. Although Helian Yu would not interact with them, it was hard to not accidentally say something. At that time, she would definitely reveal her identity.
He immediately answered, "Crown Prince Helian knows that there is a mistake. The external healer, Li Yue, is actually Prince Mo's wife, and also this wangfei's younger sister, Gu Qingxiao."
"Oh …" The two sisters have outstanding medical skills? " Curiosity flashed through Helian Yu's eyes, as if he wanted to ask until the end.
Gu Qing Li changed the topic. Facing Helian Shuang who was obviously not in a good mood and was fidgeting, he said, "Princess Helian must be extremely bored these days." "I really didn't think that you would encounter such a thing the moment you arrived at Dongyuan City. Right now, even if you wanted to leave, it would be a bit inconvenient. But I can tell the prince that his proposal will be made in front of the emperor …"
"This princess has no intention of leaving." Helian Shuanghua's face was sullen as he flatly refused.
Gu Qingli was slightly taken aback before she smiled, "The Dongyuan Capital is in danger now, so it's inconvenient for me to go out. The Princess has no place to play, so I'm afraid she'll feel bored inside the inn. Do you still want to stay?"
He Lian said: "I do not plan to leave. Dong Yuan is a very local person and has met with a calamity. If I can help, it would be for the best. Even if I can't, it would not be the Northern Chu people's style to just sit back and do nothing while they are in danger."
"That's right." It was rare for Helian Xianzhong and her brother to cry out in unison.
Gu Qingli lowered her head to look at Helian Xianping's hands, which were resting on her knees. She didn't say anything. Although their hands were white and delicate, they were not as delicate as those of the women from the East Abyss. Helian Xianzi had been wielding a sword all year round, and there was a layer of callus on his palm. His joints were slightly thick, and they were incomparable to Gu Qingli's delicate and beautiful appearance.
Helian Lie saw that Gu Qing Li was staring at his hands and also lowered his head to look at them. He subconsciously compared Gu Qing Li's hands with his own. His expression changed and he withdrew his hand to carry the tea Gu.
Gu Qing Li knew that she had misunderstood, but he only smiled and did not speak. He extended his hand to bring the tea Gu over, but did not make a sound. After being stung by the Venomous Bee Gu, Helian Peng unexpectedly only went through a normal process of treatment and recovered completely. She didn't see any butterfly-shaped black spots on her hands or wrists, which only added to her confusion.
The Helian siblings were unwilling to leave during such a dangerous time. The so-called friendship was just a lie, how could Gu Qingli believe that? In her mind, she recalled Ding Lang's words again and again: Northern Frontier... "… Gu …" Zhou Qianxi had also mentioned that she was sold to the Northern Frontier's East Sun. She later found out from Xiao Yixiu that the Xinping Prefecture that Ding Lang mentioned was also in the Northern Frontier.
As for the north, it was at the border with the Northern Chu. It was a land that had been invaded and occupied by the Northern Chu people time and time again. Xin Ping had been defeated by Xiao Yi in the Helian Imperial War. It was only after that battle that he was officially reinstated.
Helian Yu didn't know what Gu Qingli was thinking in her heart. Her eyes were only focused on Gu Qingli, only feeling that her pale face, her usual cold and arrogant demeanor, and her slightly delicate appearance, were pitiful. She said, "I've been holding myself back at the Cheng Yang Inn for the past few days, and it's true that I'm feeling a bit bored, but I'm not here to ask for assistance from the imperial concubine for a chat."
"Help?"
"The plague has already spread all the way to the Cheng Yang Inn. First, a servant girl from Dongyuan Palace caught it, and then it was a guard from my Northern Chu … Now that these two have been locked up, I would like to request that you move to the inn. "
Gu Qingli was startled. After a while, she said: "With Prince Helian's status, he can totally seek help from my Emperor Dongyuan. There are so many doctors in the palace, how can you trust a woman like me, who can't even be considered a doctor?"
"I heard that your sister's prescription has caused the outer city's people to improve once …"
Helian Xiufeng interrupted his brother's words with a sneer, "It was just that the news I heard this morning began to worsen."
Helian Yu didn't even look at her and continued, "Your sister's medical skills are so, Princess Hua-Yang is probably not bad. "Ever since the wangfei suggested me to open up my meridians with the breathing technique, my old ailments have indeed improved a lot. I sincerely hope that wangfei can lend me a helping hand."
Gu Qing Li was silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, asking doubtfully, "Three days ago, Wu Tengyi sent people to arrange this. All the patients sent people to distribute the medicine, could it be that Cheng Yang Inn didn't receive it?"
"Got it. The two of them even consumed it. It was just like the rumors said in the outside world. At first, it was fine, but soon after, an unpredictable change occurred. The attacks of the two became even stronger, and their illness changed."
"Prince Helian actually dared to invite me?"
"I believe that something unexpected has happened."
Helian Xiufeng sneered, "Big Brother Crown Prince, I believe that this unexpected turn of events is because the royal concubine and her daughter are still deeply in bed. Their medical skills are not as good as they think." She raised her head with a look of disdain and didn't even look at Gu Qing Li.
Gu Qingli was not the least bit angry. She looked at Helian Lie with a smile and suddenly asked, "Has the bee poison in Princess Helian completely healed?"
"What do you mean?" Helian Shuanghua was stunned.
"Did you ever leave a black spot in the shape of a butterfly on your body?"
Helian Shuang's face suddenly changed. She said with a sneer, "What do you want to say? No, nothing. This princess' injury is on her face, can't you see it? "
Gu Qingli looked at her without batting an eyelid, feeling a little guilty about trying to scare her off.
"Alright, I will follow you to Cheng Yang Inn."
Compared to the outside world, the Cheng Yang Inn was relatively quiet. Even though there were two patients here, order was still the same. Helian Lie didn't want to spend more time with Gu Qing Li. After entering the inn, he parted ways with them.
The staff welcomed them into the inn and led them to a remote ear room at the back of the inn. They pointed to two locked doors and said, "This is one of our maidservants, and next to them is the Northern Chu Guard."
That person opened the lock on the servant girl first, not forgetting to remind her, "Be careful, her mind is currently muddled, and her attack power is also much higher than usual."
The more Gu Qingli thought about the zombie virus Corpse Transformation, the more she felt like it was a zombie. She couldn't help but furrow her brows, but Helian Yu blocked her path, and he was the first to enter.
With a low growl, someone rushed forward.
Helian Yu's reaction was nimble. With a wave of his hand, he caught the incoming person, knocking her to the ground. He twisted her arm and placed his other hand on the back of her head, which was constantly trying to reverse itself.
Prince Helian sealed her acupoints and let her go.
"I'm fine." Helian Yu didn't care at all. He turned his face to look at her, "Do you see any difference between this and the previous patients?"
