Translator: Endlessæantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“His Royal Highness’s condition has stabilized. However, the Gu poison in his body hasn’t been cured yet. I’ll stay here and watch. You go and report to the empress dowager and His Majesty.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, she turned around and looked at the side hall behind her worriedly.
Rong Zhan’s condition was still unstable, and she needed to stay here and watch over him.
Ahe was still not sure what kind of poison would be needed to completely cure the poison on the Gu Worm.
She still had to wait for Rong Zhan’s condition to stabilize before bringing the corpse of the Gu Worm to the research Institute. She would use the research institute’s tools to study the Gu worm in detail before she could proceed with the next step of the treatment.
As she stood outside the hall, Gu Qingxue recalled the entire incident.
It was different from her dream. In her dream, she did not see Rong Han being poisoned by the perfume bag. She could understand that. After all, she had helped Rong Han avoid danger in her dream, and the future situation had been slightly deviated because of her intervention.
However, it was the first time that such a huge deviation had occurred. Furthermore, how did the thirteenth princess come into contact with those legendary venomous insects?
Furthermore, according to her dream, this Gu Worm’s initial target should be Rong Han.
Thinking back to how she had risked her life to protect Rong Han, but Rong Zhan had chosen to stand in front of her to protect her, Gu Qingxue suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart.
At that time, Rong Zhan had resolutely chosen to protect her with his body. In such a short period of time, Rong Zhan did not even have the chance to react.
He had chosen to protect her completely subconsciously.
An uncontrollable throbbing pain came from his heart.
Gu Qingxue fell into deep thought, and then she heard footsteps.
She immediately looked up in the direction of the footsteps. Gu Qingxue saw the empress dowager quickly rushing over with the help of Gong Lingyu and Nanny Bi Zhu.
“Greetings to the empress dowager and the princess.” Gu Qingxue saw the empress dowager’s anxious expression and knew what she was thinking without asking. “Empress Dowager, His Royal Highness hasn’t woken up yet and still needs to rest. It’s not convenient for him to see people. However, His Royal Highness is already out of danger, so the empress dowager can be at ease.”
“Thank you for your hard work, Miss Gu. How could Miss Gu manage all this by herself? Do you need any other doctors from the Imperial Hospital to assist you?” The empress dowager asked Gu Qingxue nervously.
Gu Qingxue shook her head. “1 can take care of His Royal Highness by myself. I don’t need to trouble the other Imperial physicians in the palace. In addition, the poison that His Royal Highness is suffering from is an extremely rare Gu Poison that ordinary people can’t deal with. Just in case, it’s best to let this subject treat it alone.”
Gong Lingyu whispered into the empress dowager’s ear, “Grandmother, Sister Gu is the most powerful Imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital. She really doesn’t need anyone else’s help. I think it would be better to leave this matter to Sister Gu.”
“Alright, Miss Gu can stay in the palace with Zhan’er today. Bi Zhu, go and clean up my side hall,” the empress dowager said.
“Empress Dowager, there is another matter. Since the poison has already appeared, it can be seen that the food at the palace banquet is no longer safe. It is better to ask His Majesty to temporarily stop the palace banquet so as not to threaten the safety of all the Lords,” Gu Qingxue said slowly.
“Alright. In addition, this matter was caused by Lil’Thirteen, so I must ask what exactly happened,” the empress dowager said with a serious face..
