“Yup!” Gong Lingyu nodded matter-of-factly. “My grandmother said that she only found out how deep your relationship was after this incident. At that time, my cousin was poisoned because he was trying to save Sister Gu. Sister
Gu, after my cousin was poisoned, you did everything by yourself without rest. My grandmother saw the way you fed each other, so she was naturally very touched. Don’t worry, Sister Gu, with my grandmother backing you up, in the future, no one will dare to bully you inside or outside the palace.”
“l don’t intend to get engaged to His Royal Highness…” Gu Qingxue did not know how to continue her explanation. The reason why she asked Gong
Lingyu to come over and take care of Rong Zhan and not allow any other Imperial physicians to get close to him was not because they were not good at medicine. Instead, she was worried that the imperial physician would take advantage of Rong Zhan’s weak state and find out that he was poisoned by two types of poison. If this matter were to be leaked, it would cause unnecessary trouble.
However, she had never thought that her thoughts would fall into the eyes of others, and it would actually be her possessiveness at work.
“Sister Gu, don’t be shy. 1 know you have many concerns, but my cousin is not a person who cares about small things. He will protect you.” After Gong Lingyu comforted her, she walked back to the soft couch and picked up Rong Han, who was sleeping soundly. “Sister Gu, I’ll take Lil’ Han and leave first. When cousin wakes up, you can come and inform us at any time.
Gu Qingxue watched as Gong Lingyu left talking to herself, and her entire
being was in a mess.
‘It’s over. This is a big misunderstanding.’
Gu Qingxue clearly realized that whatever she said now would be in vain, so she had no choice but to come over and detoxify Rong Zhan first. No matter what the misunderstanding was, Rong Zhan could naturally explain it to the empress dowager after he woke up.
At that thought, Gu Qingxue went to perform acupuncture on Rong Zhan to drain the blood.
Only then would Rong Zhan be able to get rid of more toxins in his body after taking the antidote, so as to avoid more toxins remaining in his body and it would be more difficult to get rid of them in the future.
After giving Rong Zhan the antidote that she found on Gu Lingyue, Gu Qingxue took out three pills that she had concocted. They could suppress the other poison in Rong Zhan’s body while protecting his veins and arteries, keeping him alive so that he would not be in too much pain from the Gu Poison.
After taking the antidote, the unconscious Rong Zhan’s brows furrowed uncontrollably. His forehead was covered in sweat, and he looked like he had just been fished out of the water. His inner shirt was drenched, but he still did not wake up.
Gu Qingxue frowned as she took in this scene. She then reached out to take Rong Zhan’s pulse and kept applying acupuncture on him in accordance with the movement of the Gu poison in his body, trying to wake him up earlier.
The pain lasted for a full 15 minutes before Rong Zhan finally coughed out a mouthful of poisonous blood and opened his eyes.
“Your Royal Highness, you’re awake,” Gu Qingxue heaved a sigh of relief and took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off Rong Zhan’s lips. She advised him patiently, “Your Royal Highness, the Gu Poison in your body has just been forced out, and you’re still weak. It’s not appropriate for you to move around. You’ll be fine after a while.
After Rong Zhan saw that the person in front of him was Gu Qingxue, the deep look in his eyes was replaced by gentleness.. He took a breath and said, “How is Han’er?”
