Chapter 65: Human Hearts Are Dangerous
The Qingmu Huasheng Jue was operating silently, and Gu Dan closed his eyes and sensed it carefully.
Because Andy Hui had taken the lead, his movements did not attract attention. The little internal energy that had been restored in his body was circulating steadily, and he used his hands as a medium to sense the outside world.
The internal energy flows and is full of vitality.
In complete contrast, there was an extremely faint breath of life on the side, like a candle in the wind.
If a person's life is compared to a big tree, then the childhood is the sapling, which needs to be carefully cared for and watered. When it grows to a certain size, as long as it has enough nutrition and does not get sick, it can experience withering and flourishing, and eventually it will slowly run out of energy and completely die.
But the life breath of Princess Ying gave Gu Dan a completely different feeling.
Compared to an ordinary illness, her aura was as if a large part of it had been chopped off. The tree that should have thrived was forcibly suppressed, eventually causing a complete collapse.
In layman's terms, Princess Ying's life force did not collapse from the inside out, but was affected by external conditions! The so-called decline of the five internal organs was not Princess Ying's own problem, nor was it an intractable disease, but someone had murdered her!
However, this method is extremely covert, just like being really sick. Even the process is extremely painful and life is worse than death.
Gu Dan opened his eyes, silently withdrew his hand, suppressed his surprise, shook his head without saying anything, indicating that he was powerless.
He is just here to go through the motions; he is not needed to give any real opinions.
"This disease has never been seen before, and there is no cure for it. At most, I can prescribe some tonic medicine to replenish your vitality."
Xu Zhian frowned. He was the main force in this diagnosis. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Although this method can delay the disease for some time, it cannot heal the pain and may even lead to the worst result."
It is actually very difficult for imperial physicians to treat such high-ranking patients.
Ordinary minor illnesses are easy to deal with, but for serious illnesses that are life-threatening, we would never prescribe overly harsh prescriptions. We always try to treat them as peacefully as possible.
The core concept is: No matter how I was before treatment, I will not get worse or even die after treatment.
Don't seek merit, but avoid mistakes! It means that Lin Xiaoyi had been in the Imperial Hospital, otherwise Xu Zhian would not have said this.
"Still like this?"
Lin Xiaoyi sighed, "When Qingpingzi came before, he said something similar to you. People still have something to live for. What if I persist in the treatment and it gets better?"
"Princess Ying is too weak to take any more strong medicine."
Gu Dan glanced at Lin Xiaoyi calmly and spoke.
In the case of Princess Ying, it seems more like she was drugged by someone, and it must be someone very close to her.
Naturally, Lin Xiaoyi, who had worked in the Imperial Hospital and even planted spies in the Royal Guard, was Gu Dan's first suspect.
After all, Lin Xiaoyi's parents were killed by the third prince, so it is natural for her to hate the royal family.
Not to mention that Princess Ying is the principal wife, and Lin Xiaoyi is only a concubine.
As long as Princess Ying doesn't die, Lin Xiaoyi will never be able to make a breakthrough.
Whether from the perspective of motivation, power, or even ability alone, she is very likely to do such a thing.
Of course, this is just speculation.
Is it possible that Prince Yu felt that having a wife with such a large family would affect his ability to inherit the throne?
Or maybe Emperor Zong Ming simply felt that such a hidden danger should not be allowed to occur, so he helped his son in advance?
The power of the royal family is too great, and any emperor with a little ambition and ability cannot tolerate such a thing!
The family affairs of the royal family are the most complicated, and the human heart is like the sea, and it cannot be completely inferred by common sense.
He and Princess Ying were not related at all, and had no connection at all.
How could he have a way to cure a difficult disease that even the imperial physicians could not? Just keep your own discovery in mind for the time being.
"Sorry to bother Uncle Xu and Brother Gu."
Lin Xiaoyi nodded slightly. She had also studied medicine, so she was naturally very clear about Princess Ying's physical condition.
Lin Xiaoyi walked the two of them out of the courtyard and waved goodbye. Naturally, a maid came forward to lead the way for them.
After walking a distance to ensure that the people behind him would not hear him, Gu Dan asked, "How is Princess Lin doing in Prince Yu's Mansion?"
"Princess Lin is such a nice person!"
The maid boldly looked at Gu Dan and said with a blushing face: "Princess Lin once studied in the Imperial Hospital and is an imperial physician passed down from generation to generation. She is very kind to us servants. Sometimes, Princess Lin can tell who is unwell just by looking at us, and she will help prescribe some medicine. The other ladies also like Princess Lin very much, and even Prince Yu praised Princess Lin for her virtue!"
"Oh? Really?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Gu Dan deliberately showed a hint of indifference, "You are really good at saying nice things."
"I'm not talking nonsense."
The maid hurriedly said, "Princess Ying is seriously ill, and other ladies would visit her a few times and then stop going. Only Princess Lin would visit her often, and even help to boil medicine herself. Everyone said that they had never seen such a good person as Princess Lin!
If other ladies or even servants have any minor illnesses, they don’t need to go to a doctor, Princess Lin can help cure them!"
Gu Dan has an extraordinary appearance. Although he was once ten years older because of an elixir, he has been practicing martial arts over the years and has reached the level of a martial arts master. He also has medical skills to take care of his body. Time can hardly take away much from him, but the accumulation of time has made him more manly and more charming than at the beginning.
When facing women, such appearance and temperament are a unique advantage, enough to lower a lot of their guard.
As long as he showed interest, the maid would talk endlessly.
When the two were about to leave, the maid showed regret on her face. For the first time, she wondered how could Prince Yu's Mansion be so small? It would be better to go to the ends of the earth! When the two walked out of Prince Yu's Mansion, Xu Zhian stared at Gu Dan again and again with a strange look.
"Uncle Xu, what are you looking at? Is there something on my face?" Gu Dan reached out and rubbed his face.
"What do you mean, kid?"
Xu Zhian came over and whispered, "When we were trying to match them up, you ran away faster than anyone else. Now that their child is so grown up, you're still pestering their maid and asking questions. Are you still harboring evil intentions? That's Prince Yu's mansion. Aren't you afraid that someone will hear and report to Prince Yu?"
Gu Dan was stunned at first, then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "What are you thinking? I'm just curious. This is the first time I've seen such a luxurious mansion, so I'm naturally curious about what kind of life there is."
Andy Hui snorted, "You better be!"
Then he didn't bother to pay attention to Gu Dan anymore and went his separate ways.
"You are slandering me!"
Gu Dan was speechless and had no way to explain his discovery.
With his character, how could he do such a traitorous thing? ! He returned to his own yard unhappy, but saw Gong Shangguo sitting in the yard with a rather ugly face, and he was carrying a silver spear! (End of this chapter)
