Gu Jiu followed the guards to the pavilion.
As I got closer, I realized that the young man in blue was really handsome. He seemed to have walked out of a painting.
There is a hint of melancholy between his brows, and his temperament is gentle and elegant, which easily makes people like him.
While Gu Jiu was looking at Liu Zhao, Liu Zhao was also looking at her.
What a gentle girl with delicate features. But she looked a little frail, with a pale complexion and little growth.
"Please take a seat, young lady. I hope you don't mind my asking you to come over."
"You're welcome, sir!"
Gu Jiu smiled faintly and sat down on the stone bench.
Qingzhu opened his mouth to say that the stone bench was too cold, but when the words reached his lips, he realized that the occasion was not right and swallowed them back.
"What's your last name, young lady?"
Gu Jiu said, "Please don't mention your surname."
"Could it be the daughter of the Jinzhou Governor, Lord Gu?"
"It's my father!"
Liu Zhao pursed his lips and smiled, his meaning unclear.
Guard Zhao San stood in a corner of the pavilion, his hand on the hilt of his knife, ready to attack and kill at any moment.
Gu Jiu observed calmly.
At this moment, danger is lurking everywhere.
The guards were filled with murderous intent. Just one look from Liu Zhao and Gu Jiu would die on the spot today.
Gu Jiu suddenly laughed. Sure enough, eavesdropping never leads to good things.
"What are you laughing at, Miss Gu?"
Gu Jiu pursed his lips and said in an ambiguous tone, "I laugh, Master."
Liu Zhao raised his eyebrows, "Am I ridiculous?"
Gu Jiu said in a resounding voice, "Young Master is ill."
"presumptuous!"
Guard Zhao San scolded him harshly.
Liu Zhao raised his hand and waved, and guard Zhao San retreated back to the corner.
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows, as expected!
Knowing that she was the daughter of Jinzhou Governor Gu, a mere guard naturally scolded her for being insolent.
The identity of the young man in front of her is probably much higher than she guessed.
It is really curious that a young man of noble status hides his identity and lives in Tianmen Temple, and he seems to have injuries on his body.
Of course, Gu Jiu restrained his curiosity.
Curiosity killed the cat, and she didn't want to die.
Liu Zhao asked calmly, "Miss Gu knows medicine?"
Gu Jiu lowered his head slightly and said, "Long-term illness makes a doctor."
"I see! Then please tell me, Miss Gu, what is wrong with me?"
Gu Jiu hesitated.
Liu Zhao smiled and said, "You can say whatever you want."
Gu Jiu said carefully, "Puhuang and Wulingzhi are two herbs commonly used to stop bleeding from external injuries. I smell the scent of these two herbs on the young master. Let me guess, the young master may have an external injury."
Liu Zhao's face was as calm as water and he did not comment.
Guard Zhao San narrowed his eyes and stared at Gu Jiu.
The seemingly harmless little girl has such a sharp gaze.
This person cannot be kept and must be eliminated as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if the news of the young master's arrival in Jinzhou were to spread, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Gu Jiu secretly glanced at Liu Zhao's lower body. Hmm, it seemed that he was seriously injured.
If you don't treat it well, this handsome young man in this troubled world will be in trouble, haha...
"Miss Gu seems very interested in my injury?"
Gu Jiu denied, "No. I just said it casually, please don't take it seriously."
Liu Zhao smiled, and his voice suddenly lowered, and his hoarse voice reached Gu Jiu's ears, "It's a pity that this young master has taken it seriously."
Gu Jiu blinked, looking a little silly.
His eyes moved, and various countermeasures flashed through his mind.
How would she get out?
She looked at the three maids. They were still confused and had no idea that they were in danger and could lose their lives at any time.
She had shown off her medical skills before just to scare the other party and make him afraid to act rashly.
Now it seems that the effect is not good.
The other party's vigilance has increased.
Gu Jiu frowned. Playing weak? It was too late.
And pretending to be weak will only make the other party look down on you.
Facing this young man of extremely high status, a weak person would have only one way to go, and that is death.
Then we can only continue to fight hard.
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows, his eyes frank as he looked directly at Liu Zhao. In a voice only the two of them could hear, he said, "The injury is at the base of the leg. If it's not treated in time, it will leave a hidden disease."
The knife in the hand of guard Zhao San had been pulled out a little.
Liu Zhao picked up the teacup, and the knife in Zhao San's hand was put back into the sheath, and his murderous intent immediately subsided.
"Miss Gu seems to know a lot."
Gu Jiu said seriously, "I've been taking medicine since I could eat. Over the past ten years, I've learned a thing or two from observing, smelling, asking and palpating."
Liu Zhao smiled calmly, "In that case, why not ask Miss Gu to treat this young master?"
"Young Master?" Guard Zhao San was anxious and surprised.
Liu Zhao waved his hand, staring at Gu Jiu with an ambiguous glint in his eyes. "I believe Miss Gu won't do anything reckless."
Gu Jiu smiled slightly, nodded, and said: "Young Master is right. I have been ill for so many years, and I cherish my life the most."
"Just cherish your life."
Liu Zhao stretched out his left hand, revealing a part of his wrist. "Miss Gu, please."
This scene not only stunned the guard Zhao San, but also Qingmei and the others.
When did the girl learn medical skills?
Gu Jiu had a blank expression on his face. He stretched out his right hand and gently placed it on Liu Zhao's wrist.
It was not much different from her previous judgment, but the injury was more serious than she expected.
The wound must have become inflamed. If it's not treated promptly, it will fester and the leg will be lost.
Gu Jiu withdrew his hand and said calmly: "It's a bit serious."
Liu Zhao casually asked, "Is there a cure?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "It can be cured."
Liu Zhao nodded slightly and said calmly, "That's good."
It looked as if he was not the one who was injured.
It's like you're saying, it's a nice day today.
The other party replied: Oh, I understand.
Gu Jiu waited for the other party to continue. She thought that the other party would ask her to prescribe medicine, but she only waited for one sentence:
"It's getting late, Miss Gu, please go back."
Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses after a moment and said crisply, "Goodbye!"
She stood up and couldn't wait to leave the pavilion with her three maids.
When Gu Jiu's figure disappeared in the orchard, the guard Zhao San took two steps forward and said, "Sir, why did you let them go? I will chase them and capture them all..." As he said this, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Liu Zhao glanced at the guard Zhao San, his eyes as sharp as a sword.
Guard Zhao San immediately lowered his head.
Liu Zhao said with an unfathomable expression, "Don't do unnecessary things."
"As you command."
Liu Zhao added, "If a murder were to occur in Tianmen Temple, it would attract the police. This would be of no benefit to us."
"I understand."
After a pause, Zhao San couldn't help but say, "It's just that I'm worried that those people will tell others about what happened today."
Liu Zhao laughed when he heard this, "She won't tell anyone."
Zhao San was confused. How could the young master know that Miss Gu would not tell anyone?
After enduring for a while, Zhao San finally managed not to ask the question.
