"From the symptoms, it seems he was poisoned, but the shape of the wound doesn't look like a snake bite."

"What do you mean?" Gu Yunfei said with a hint of blame.

"I dare not make any rash judgment!" The military doctor knelt down quickly.

"What should we do now? You're the only one here who knows medicine. You have to find a solution no matter what."

"Okay. I'll think about it right away!" The military doctor lowered his head and didn't dare to look up at Gu Yunfei.

If this were an ordinary soldier, he could give it a try, but this was the little princess of the Du Kingdom. How could he dare to treat her carelessly? If he failed to cure her and was blamed, he would not be able to bear the consequences.

Du Shuting quietly opened her eyes.

Through the gap in the mask, Du Shuting saw Gu Yunfei's tightly pursed lips.

He seemed genuinely concerned for her safety.

She had followed him here and had caused him trouble, but he had not abandoned her.

A new emotion spread from the bottom of her heart. Du Shuting felt itchy and warm inside.

"We can't delay any longer. Treat her as if she were bitten by a venomous snake while we set off to send her back to Du Country. Du Country is home to many venomous snakes, and their doctors should be more experienced in treating poisons."

"But, General, the Emperor has ordered..." Jixiang couldn't help but remind him.

Gu Yunfei's eyes were determined. "Jixiang, bring Liehuo and Jifeng here and prepare three days' worth of food. During these three days, you will train the soldiers and wait for me here. Military doctor, come with me."

"I obey your command." Upon hearing this, Jixiang ran away.

Jixiang had never seen a general disobey orders. Fortunately, the emperor was thousands of miles away and had no idea about it. If he had known, the consequences would have been disastrous.

However, he was the general's man in life and his ghost in death. Like tens of thousands of other soldiers, he was loyal to the general. To them, the general's words were like an imperial decree.

Du Shuting was secretly happy.

Since Gu Yunfei wants to send her back to Du Country, can she take the opportunity to keep him in Du Country?

The military doctor took out silver needles and prepared medicine and applied them to Du Shuting's wound. In addition to these, he also asked someone to boil some medicine.

After preparing these, the three of them set off.

Every time they walked a distance, the military doctor would stop to change Du Shuting's dressing. During the third dressing change, he found that the wound was no longer black.

"General, the princess's poison should have been cured." The military doctor said cautiously.

"Then why hasn't she woken up yet?" Gu Yunfei also checked her wound. It indeed looked no longer black and now looked like an ordinary scratch.

"My guess is that it's probably due to overwork, coupled with poisoning." The military doctor was also puzzled. The wound looked fine, so why hadn't the patient woken up yet? Could something have gone wrong?

Du Shuting heard everything Gu Yunfei and the others were saying. Sometimes she pretended to be unconscious, and sometimes she was really asleep because she was too sleepy. However, she knew that as long as she continued to pretend to be unconscious, Gu Yunfei would send her back home.

"Give her some stronger medicine." Gu Yunfei actually felt it was strange. Although he didn't know medicine, he felt that she shouldn't have been unconscious for so long.

Is she pretending to be dizzy?

This thought flashed through Gu Yunfei's mind.

"I heard that horse urine can detoxify. Let's try it. We'll give it a try." Gu Yunfei said, looking at Du Shuting's face.

The military doctor was confused. Why had he never heard that horse urine could be used to detoxify?
