"No need!" Consort Shu said firmly, "I trust your medical skills, Physician Xie. Please go and write a prescription for my brother."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Physician Xie curtsied.
Consort Shu looked around and deliberately lowered her voice: "This matter must not be publicized."
"Your Highness, please rest assured." Imperial Physician Xie paused for a moment, "If this old minister is not mistaken, the Gu worms in Young Master Lu's body are not harmful to him. It should be that a master used these Gu worms to help Young Master Lu clear the poison from his body."
Consort Shu suddenly realized.
She thought about it carefully.
It seems to have been from the day she returned to the General's Mansion to visit her family.
Lu Zhaolin seemed to have undergone a tremendous change overnight.
As the days went by, his health gradually improved.
It was difficult for Consort Shu to say whether she had received help from a master or whether her brother was destined to survive.
After all, it was the day she returned home to visit her family.
Apart from her beloved concubine, no one else had ever entered or left the inner courtyard of the General's Mansion.
"Your Highness, if a truly skilled person has saved Young Master Lu, please have that person come again as soon as possible. When I examined Young Master Lu's pulse just now, I found that there are no more toxins in his body. I'm afraid..."
I'm afraid those two Gu worms will stay inside his body any longer.
It's not about saving lives.
On the contrary, it could be fatal.
This is also what Mu Qianqian is most worried about at this moment.
"Does Physician Xie have any solutions?" Consort Shu asked, looking troubled.
A master!?
Where did this expert come from?
She had no idea that her elder brother knew anyone in Ningguo who practiced witchcraft.
Could it be that he invented this Gu worm by studying books himself?
However, I remember reading about it in an ancient book before.
It takes at least a dozen years to cultivate a Gu worm.
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Consort Shu immediately rejected this terrible idea in her heart.
Her older brother would never use any strange or evil magic.
So who exactly is this extraordinary person that Physician Xie mentioned?
"Your Highness, I'll go and prepare the medicine for Young Master Lu now." Physician Xie had just left.
From the side hall came Madam Xia's sobs again: "Siqi... Siqi, don't frighten your mother..."
Consort Shu was startled and hurriedly placed Mu Qianqian next to Lu Zhaolin, then ran towards the inner room: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Oh no, Miss Xia has vomited blood again."
"Quickly, quickly get some danshen to keep her energized, and make sure she doesn't faint."
"Is the medicine ready?"
"Physician Li! Physician Li!"
"Bring the needle over..."
Mu Qianqian can now roll over, but unfortunately she is too young to crawl yet.
She used all her strength, sweating profusely, before she could barely manage to get herself to Lu Zhaolin's side.
Lu Zhaolin painfully opened his eyes and glanced at the baby beside him.
Even though he was so weak that he didn't even have the strength to speak, he still managed to force a smile: "Qianqian, don't climb around, be careful not to fall."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the bedside and then used his hand to shield Mu Qianqian from view.
Just then, everyone in the house went to the inner room, leaving only Mu Qianqian and Lu Zhaolin in the outer room.
Mu Qianqian braced herself on his shoulder with one hand to support her body.
"Qianqian, be good..."
Lu Zhaolin was afraid she would fall off the bed, so he forced himself to get up, despite his weak body.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a purple light between Mu Qianqian's eyebrows.
At this moment, Mu Qianqian's eyes had also lost their former naivety.
