Physician Xie's eyes widened in surprise, and he turned to look at the colorful bird perched high on the branch.
The man in black's restless pulse suddenly calmed down when the seven-colored bird approached.
Even now, his pulse still feels unstable.
However, you could tell from the expression on the man in black's face.
He was no longer in so much pain.
"Father, I've forced one of the Gu worms out of that man in black's body."
However, there is still a Gu worm inside his body.
Quick! Start negotiating with him!
Emperor Yuanwu cleared his throat.
He was just about to say that.
"I have kept my word, so what about your promise?" Emperor Yuanwu said to the man in black on the ground.
The man in black struggled to sit up from the ground, wiping the fine sweat from his forehead: "Emperor Yuanwu, may I speak with you in private?"
"I advise you to tell the truth. Don't forget, I can have the imperial physician force the Gu worms out of your body, and I can also have him put them back in." Emperor Yuanwu said with a hint of warning, "I advise you not to try any tricks."
The man in black's eyes darkened: "What does Emperor Yuanwu take me for? Since I've said it, I will definitely do it!"
Physician Xie helped the man in black to his feet.
The man in black clasped his hands in a fist and bowed deeply to Physician Xie beside him, saying, "Thank you."
Physician Xie: ...
He was already drenched in sweat.
He really didn't do anything; he just took his pulse.
"Young hero, you should thank the Emperor. I was just following orders."
The man in black paused for a moment, then was led away.
However, Physician Xie remained standing still for a long time.
He looked up at the one standing in the tree.
Although it was already dark and the distance was far.
But he clearly saw that the seven-colored bird had something wriggling in its beak, which was clearly the Gu worm that had just been forced out of the man in black's body.
Wasn't this seven-colored bird always kept in Consort Shu's palace?
Therefore...
The one who just helped the man in black expel the Gu worms from his body was Consort Shu.
She served in the palace for so many years.
He never knew that Consort Shu had such abilities.
However, Emperor Yuanwu should have known about this at this time.
Or rather...
Emperor Yuanwu and Consort Shu already knew that an assassin would appear in the Empress Dowager's hands today.
They were just putting on a show, working together from the inside and outside.
He understood something at that moment.
Why was the Empress so prominent in the harem when Consort Shu was not around?
Once Consort Shu makes her move.
She was confined to Yikun Palace forever.
The Empress was vicious and devoted all her energy to dealing with the concubines.
She was single-mindedly focused on gaining Emperor Yuanwu's favor, but she never knew what kind of person Emperor Yuanwu truly wanted to favor.
However, Consort Shu was quite different from her.
With her wisdom and resourcefulness, she helped Emperor Yuanwu escape danger time and time again.
She didn't make Emperor Yuanwu fall in love with her step by step, but rather made him unable to live without her step by step.
Perhaps the empress will never know exactly where she went wrong.
When Emperor Yuanwu came out of the imperial study again, his face was extremely gloomy.
He ordered that Princess Chang'an be brought back to the palace at all costs, and sent people to bring Princess Chang'an's mother, who was in the temporary palace, directly back to the capital.
