However, Doctor Song explained solemnly, "Your Majesty, you may not know this. This Gu is called the Love Gu. There are one male and one female. Based on what Your Majesty just said, the female Gu should be in Your Majesty's body, and the male Gu is likely in his body."
Chu Ye felt a sense of helplessness and panic after hearing this. He tightly grasped Xie Qi's hand and asked in a voice that seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, "What is the connection between the two?"
Doctor Song hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to tell the truth. He sighed and slowly said, "Two poisonous insects will inevitably harm one. If you want to save him, the person infected by the mother poison must drink the medicine to recover. However, if you do this, the host will become ill..."
Hearing this, Chu Yezhe's heart sank suddenly, as if it was being tightly grasped by an invisible big hand.
He gritted his teeth, trying to suppress the anger surging in his heart. At this moment, he finally understood why the Regent was so confident in placing Xie Qi by his side.
Xie Qi had so many opportunities to drug himself, but he chose to give up. He would rather endure the torture of the poison than hurt himself. This discovery made Chu Ye Ze's heart ache like a knife.
His hands were shaking as he gently stroked Xie Qi's cheek and wiped the sweat from his forehead. After taking a deep breath, he tried to remain calm and said, "Yingyou, bring me that bottle of medicine."
Yingyou's eyes widened, and he shouted without hesitation: "Master, absolutely not!"
Yingzuo also showed a look of horror, and anxiously advised: "Master, you must not do this!"
Doctor Song also knelt down and pleaded: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely not allowed!"
Eunuch Liu was so anxious that his face turned red. He kowtowed and advised, "Your Majesty, absolutely not!"
The entire bedroom was suddenly filled with people kneeling on the ground, and everyone looked at Chu Ye Ze with earnest eyes, hoping that he would take back his words.
However, Chu Ye's eyes flashed with determination: "I have been tortured by the poisonous insect for so many years, I don't mind one more time."
But at this moment, no one present took any action. They knew very well that between the two, His Majesty was the most important.
"You don't want to listen to me? Yingyi, you go!"
Chu Ye roared at the shadow guards around him, his eyes flashing with anger. However, no one responded to his orders.
"Are you going to disobey me?"
Ying Zhong knelt silently beside him, a hint of hesitation and worry on his face. Chu Ye noticed his expression and immediately turned his gaze towards him, speaking with a somewhat dignified tone: "Ying Zhong!"
But Yingzhong also shook his head, indicating that he could not obey the order. Chu Ye Ze's face became increasingly gloomy, and he shouted loudly: "Okay! You all don't listen to me, I will get it myself!" As he said that, he was about to step towards the door.
Doctor Song seemed to have seen that His Majesty attached great importance to the person lying in bed, even to the point of hurting himself.
When Chu Ye turned away angrily, Doctor Song slowly said, "Your Majesty, I once came across a medical book that mentioned this kind of poison. It also mentioned another method to cure it. But..."
After hearing this, Chu Ye immediately stopped, turned around, and looked at Doctor Song eagerly, his eyes full of expectation and hope.
However, he saw that Doctor Song looked embarrassed and hesitant, as if there was something he couldn't bring himself to talk about. Chu Ye couldn't help but frown and said impatiently, "Speak!"
Doctor Song took a deep breath and said, as if he had made up his mind, "Your Majesty, this other method of removing the poison requires... the female and male Gu hosts to... have sex."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked. They stared at Doctor Song with wide eyes, looking at him in disbelief, as if trying to confirm whether they had heard correctly.
Chu Ye's pupils dilated, his mind in a mess, his heartbeat accelerating, and an expression of disbelief on his face. This answer was completely unexpected and left him at a loss.
At this moment, Xie Qi, who was lying on the bed, seemed to wake up. He was tortured by the insects and was in great pain. His face was as pale as paper and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
He clenched his teeth, but still couldn't help but let out a low groan. Suddenly, he bit his lips hard, and blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, Chu Ye immediately rushed forward, knelt beside the bed, and put his fingers into Xie Qi's mouth to prevent him from continuing to hurt himself.
The sharp teeth dug deep into the skin, causing a stinging pain.
Chu Ye frowned slightly, but did not withdraw his fingers. Instead, he held Xie Qi's hand even tighter. He stared at Xie Qi's painful face, his eyes filled with heartache and a certain determination.
After a while, Chu Yezhe slowly spoke: "Everyone step back." His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable majesty.
Following Chu Ye Ze's order, the shadow guards, imperial physicians, and eunuchs all left the room. They moved very quietly, as if they were afraid to disturb the person on the bed.
Eunuch Liu was the last one to leave. He gently closed the door, leaving a quiet space for the two of them.
At this moment, inside the bedroom, Chu Ye was staring nervously at Xie Qi on the bed, his eyes flashing with complex emotions. He knew that his feelings for Ying Qi were just like those for his father, the emperor, and his mother, the empress.
He likes Ying Qi and longs to regard him as a part of his life, rather than just a shadow guard.
After realizing his feelings, Chu Ye's hands trembled slightly as he slowly reached out to Xie Qi's clothes, trying to untie the clothes that bound him.
As Xie Qi's chest was gradually exposed to the air, Chu Ye Ze's face had already turned red with shyness, like a ripe apple.
