In the courtyard of the Gu family home, Cheng Huaijin's siblings were all present.
After the imperial physician examined him, he instructed the apprentice to apply medicine to his wounds.
"Princess, Prince Ahai's injuries will heal in a few days with rest. His internal organs have not been damaged. The external injuries only appear serious; with the ointment prepared by you and Mr. Xiao, they will heal in no time. So, please rest assured, Princess." The imperial physician told Gu Xin about Cheng Huaijin's injuries.
The people at the Imperial Medical Academy all liked Gu Xin and Grandma Xiao. The two of them would occasionally come up with some little gadgets that were much better than the similar medicines that the Imperial Medical Academy usually used.
They didn't hide the formula from the imperial physicians and generously asked them to find someone to prepare it. They did manage to prepare it, but the effects were never as good as what they had made.
Therefore, the medicines that Gu Xin and Grandma Xiao prepared and sent to the Imperial Hospital were basically for the royal family members, or were specially bestowed upon ministers by the emperor when he was in a good mood.
"Yes, Physician Xu. Thank you for making this trip." Gu Xin nodded.
She could actually treat Cheng Huaijin's injuries, but she had to put on a good show. At the time, besides Cheng Huaijin, Shi Mu was also seriously injured, and the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital were all there. When Cheng Huaijin returned, this Physician Xu also came back with him.
Physician Xu's medical skills are quite good, and Gu Xin still trusts him. Since he said so, it means that Cheng Huaijin is really not in serious danger, and that Shi Mu did not use those underhanded tricks.
Gu Xin saw Physician Xu out, and the other siblings, seeing Gu Yingxue's expression, also followed her out.
Cheng Huaijin was exhausted after taking Gu Xin's pills and was now fast asleep.
Gu Yingxue sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes red, watching with concern as Physician Xu's apprentice applied medicine to her. She didn't even notice that her brothers and sisters had all left the room.
His upper body was covered in bruises and swelling, with some areas swollen up quite high, making it look very painful.
Gu Yingxue even wanted to snatch the bottle from the apprentice and apply the medicine to Cheng Huaijin herself.
"Miss Gu?" After the apprentice finished treating Cheng Huaijin's upper body, he looked at Gu Yingxue by the bed with some difficulty.
"Hmm?" Gu Yingxue looked at the young apprentice with a puzzled expression. "What's wrong? Do you need help? I can do it."
"No, no," the apprentice quickly shook his head, then said, "I need to check Prince Ahai's leg injury. Miss Gu, is it...?"
The apprentice was too embarrassed to say what came next.
Gu Yingxue blushed and stood up, saying, "Oh, okay, I'll leave for a bit. But be gentle! Prince Ahai is a little tired, don't hurt him and wake him up."
The young apprentice replied repeatedly, "I know, I will definitely be gentler."
Gu Yingxue walked out of the room, turning back every few steps.
The young apprentice sighed. What a devoted lover!
However, in his opinion, the two were a perfect match.
He admired Gu Yingxue quite a bit. If it were any other noble lady, she probably wouldn't want to marry Prince Ahai!
Even if Prince Ahai is handsome, powerful, and will become the King of Quicksand, he will still have a place in the Western Lands.
But what kind of place is the West? It's said to be barren, and most girls probably wouldn't go there.
Look at those princesses in the West, none of them are fair-skinned. When Princess Xin Xin first came back, she was a bit dark-skinned, and it was only in the last year that she regained her fair complexion!
