Pushing the door open, he saw that the interior was airtight. Obviously, the doors and windows were covered by heavy curtains, preventing even the outside sunlight from shining into the interior of the room. He had to turn the screen to see a swinging curtain hanging in the inner room.
Xiaoyi Mo frowned, "Still not holding a light?"
As a result, in the dark, someone ignited a few more lanterns in succession, then someone behind the curtains screamed, "Extinguished, extinguished!"
Gu Qingli was baffled. She thought to herself, "She's just poisoned, it's not measles. Why are you so afraid of light?"
Xiao Yi Mo didn't pay any attention to him and walked forward with large strides. He casually lifted the bead curtain and walked in.
Gu Qingli followed closely behind and was almost hit in the face by the beaded curtain that was thrown at her. She thought to herself, "This Sunset King is so angry."
On the rosewood bed carved with Luan Fengxiang, there was a large red smokescreen, and the dressing table in the room was still pasted with the word 'Joy'. It was clear that the wedding had not yet passed, but a strange depressing atmosphere permeated the room, not a single trace of happiness could be seen.
Even the maidservants who were standing with their hands down didn't dare to breathe. Their faces were full of fear and trepidation.
Just as Xiao Yi Mo rolled up the curtains made of pure gold, he saw a person sitting upright on the bed. With disheveled hair and red silk undergarments, he yelled out like a ghost, "Get out! Get the hell out of here! "
Following that, he waved his hands in a flurry.
"What's the matter with you?" Xiao Yi Mo roared and grabbed the woman's shoulder, attempting to stabilize her body.
The woman struggled with all her might. Her long hair covered her face, making it impossible to see her face. She could only vaguely make out a thin figure under the empty silk gown.
Gu Qingli felt a sense of wanting to laugh. The dignified prime minister of a thousand gold, not long ago she was still acting arrogantly in front of her, but now she had become like this. She said lightly, "Is this the princess consort?"
The woman was originally struggling with all her might. However, it took some effort for Xiao Yi Mo to suppress it, so he furiously slapped her in the face.
She suddenly stopped moving and stared straight through her long hair at Xiaoyi Mo and Gu Qingli.
Seeing Gu Qingli's crimson red clothes, it was as if she had received a huge shock. "You actually let someone else enter the sect again. It's been less than a month …" she muttered. "You've only been married to me for less than a month, yet you've already taken in a side concubine and even a new one …"
"Are you sick? This is the Ghost Doctor, Li Yue, whom this king has invited.
Gu Qingruo sat there like she was in a daze.
Gu Qingli didn't expect that her red clothes would be mistaken for bride attire by the emotional Gu Qingruo. She frowned, then went up to the bed and sat down. She extended her hand. "Princess, please extend your hand and take my pulse."
Gu Qingruo hesitantly stretched out her wrist, allowing her to feel her pulse.
Gu Qing asked as she examined her pulse. Gu Qingruo was in a trance, and Xiao Yi Mo would sometimes answer.
At first, she felt nauseous and uncomfortable half a month ago. Then, she felt a slight tingling on her face and couldn't help but scratch it. Then, she started to itch more and more, until her face started to swell up, and along with the scratches on her fingernails, some parts of her face started to crack and fester.
The unveiling teacher was mostly helpless against her ghost-like face. There were even some prescriptions that were right, but they couldn't get to the root of the illness. She ate medicine every day, and the more she ate, the more painful she became.
It was the fear of seeing her face that made the house look like this haunted house.
Gu Qingli flipped her black hair over and was startled. There was still some dregs of the medicine left on her face by the doctor, she had already applied them internally and externally.
"Wash her face."
"No, no, no …" Her face was in so much pain now that it stung every time she touched it, and it itched without touching it.
The maidservants brought water for them and brought masks with their hands, but none of them dared to advance while trembling in fear. Lately, whoever saw her face would have to be beaten up, let alone washed it.
Gu Qingli said lightly, "Don't be afraid, Your Highness is holding her down. I'll help her wash." She took out a small bottle from her bosom and poured some yellow powder into the basin, instantly dissolving it.
She twisted her mask, thinking to herself that for the sake of the scales, I will wash your face first, and then we will settle our debts after autumn. She sneered in her heart as she slowly wiped Gu Qingruo's face with a handkerchief.
For fear that Gu Qingruo would struggle to resist, Xiaoyi Mo sat behind her and twisted both of her hands, locking her in place.
At the beginning, Gu Qingruo was still struggling and crying weakly. As she washed the handkerchief, she actually calmed down, as if the pain had lessened greatly.
Actually, Gu Qingli's powder had only been mixed with mint and some pain-relieving powder. When applied to her face, it was calming and refreshing, slightly reducing the itchiness on her face. Gu Qingluo felt much more comfortable.
But in the eyes of others, she definitely had a pair of mysterious hands. She had washed her face just once, and made Gu Qingruo obediently quiet down.
His face was dark red and swollen, covered in dried scabs and bloody scars. There were also a variety of purplish black pimples scattered all over his body. He looked like an ugly toad skin.
Gu Qing Li couldn't help but want to laugh, so he continued to ask, "Does the wangfei still drink alcohol sometimes?"
"There's a doctor who said that alcohol can stimulate blood circulation and dissipate blood stasis …"
Who the hell said that? Gu Qingli wanted to laugh as she silently cursed the wine. It was good that alcohol could disperse qi and remove blood stasis, but Gu Qingruo's body was poisoned. Drinking alcohol would speed up the blood circulation and speed up the poison.
Xiao Yi Mo's expression was so bad that it could no longer be seen. His gaze shifted to the side, not wanting to land on Gu Qing Ruo's face at all.
It was no wonder that even a single person couldn't stand such a face, let alone a heartless scum like Xiao Yi Mo. It was already out of respect for Gu Zhaoran that he had been able to register for a doctor for Gu Qingruo.
After washing his face, Gu Li Qing leisurely wiped his hands. "Alright, take a pen and paper, and open up the recipe."
Xiaoyi Mo ignored Gu Qingruo and walked up to her, watching her as she started writing.
Gu Qingruo's calligraphy was not good. In her previous life, she had spent all of her time practicing poison techniques and killing people. She didn't have the time to study these flashy things.
As she wrote, she said, "Your Highness, if I can cure Princess Hua-Yang, I'll need some compensation."
"A thousand taels of gold. It's written on the reward list that I will definitely pay for it."
"I want more."
Xiaoyi Mo's long and thick eyebrows slowly knitted together, "How much do you want?
Gu Qingli paused for a moment before pointing at Gu Qingruo's neck. "I want that thing in her neck."
Gu Qingruo was wearing red silk undergarments that didn't fit her dress at all. Her neck was bare and slender, and the ornamental gold chain around her neck was shaking. The translucent crescent moon-shaped fish scales in particular emitted a pearl-like luster, reflecting a rainbow-colored luster on the edge of her chest.
The expression in Xiao Yi Mo's eyes changed slightly, and his expression seemed stiff. He looked at Gu Qing Ru but didn't say anything.
Gu Qingruo's expression changed as she instinctively covered her chest, "You can't give it to her!" This was one of the new appointments he made before the wedding. She had personally helped her put it on.
Although she didn't know what it was, it was a tribute that the Emperor had given Xiao Yi Mo for his grand wedding. It was said that it was a tribute from the distant Southern Moon Country, so it was naturally incomparably precious.
