Mu Tiantian casually said, "I spent some time in Miao territory and read some books, so I know a little about it."
"Then you really have a talent for this. There aren't many people who have the skill of picking out Gu worms directly from a person." Ulana was truly impressed.
Even though she had studied Gu worms since childhood, she could only force them out using other methods. She couldn't accurately use a knife to pick them out from the outside, because if she wasn't careful, they might burrow deeper into the ground.
It's even possible that the worm's eggs might remain inside the body, which would be even more dangerous.
"I've done this before, which is why I dared to take action." In fact, she had studied this kind of experience with Gu worms not only in this world, but also in other worlds.
Although the "Gu" in different worlds are not quite the same, they have many similarities, which is why she can identify them immediately.
Removing the Gu directly from a person's body requires not only talent but also experience.
"That's quite impressive. By the way, Miss Mu, what is your relationship with the Regent? Why did he agree to let me stay at the Prince's mansion?" Ever since the Gu worms in her body were removed, Ulana had been living in a guest room at the Prince's mansion, where she was being treated by Mu Tiantian.
Ulana also knew that last time Long Fantian had deliberately acted to trick her into revealing information.
After spending the last few days with her, she felt that Miss Mu was a really nice person, but if she was loyal to the Regent, Ulana didn't plan to have any more contact with her.
She didn't want to get involved in the power struggles of the imperial court; she only wanted to kill Xin Liangmu to avenge her family and retrieve the family's secret manual.
“I saved him, so of course he has to listen to me.” Mu Tiantian, who didn’t like Long Fantian, vented her anger in front of Wulana. “After all, I am his savior. If I tell him to go east, he would never dare to go west.”
"Then why did you help me?" This was also what Ulana was curious about.
Mu Tiantian smiled and said, "Didn't you also think I would be beaten to death by Long Fantian before, and you said everything to save me? So it's not strange that I helped you."
Seeing how gentle she was to her, Ulana was reminded of how gentle her mother had been when she was a child.
However, she was unable to see her mother one last time.
“Miss Mu,” Ulana suddenly looked at her seriously, “If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know.”
Mu Tiantian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."
She tidied up the dressing change tools, told Ulana to rest early, and then left the room.
Just as I closed the door, I heard a deep voice behind me, "When have I ever said you should go east and then you wouldn't dare go west?"
Mu Tiantian was startled by the sudden sound and breathed a sigh of relief, "How did you appear out of nowhere? You scared me to death."
"You're already talking so much even though your throat isn't fully healed," Long Fantian teased. "Aren't you afraid you'll really become mute later?"
"Even if I really become mute, it will definitely be because you poisoned me." Mu Tiantian found that this regent could be quite sharp-tongued at times.
They are ruthless when it comes to arguing, and equally ruthless when it comes to killing.
Seeing that she looked at him with disapproval, Long Fantian was not angry at all, but rather a little pleased. He smiled slightly and said, "As long as you listen to me, why would I poison you to make you mute?"
Mu Tiantian pouted and muttered under her breath, "If anyone should listen... it should be you listening to me... why should I listen to you..."
"It seems Miss Mu has many grievances against me. How about this, I'll have Chunyu and Dongxue accompany you out for some fresh air?"
Mu Tiantian's eyes lit up upon hearing this, "Really?"
These past few days, she hasn't been able to go anywhere except her own room and Ulana's room; she's almost driven crazy by this.
His "darkening" level didn't decrease either.
According to Qi Tong, Long Fantian's corruption mainly stemmed from Long Xinghuang's distrust of him and his heavy reliance on Xin Liangmu to counter his influence in the imperial court.
Furthermore, Long Fantian believed that the person who framed him on the battlefield was the emperor, and thought that Long Xinghuang wanted to get rid of him, which is why he developed a dark side and began to plot to usurp the throne.
Long Xinghuang felt that Long Fantian wielded immense power and suppressed him at every turn in the court, making him feel like a puppet emperor. Later, he discovered that Long Fantian was secretly cultivating ministers and training and deploying troops, which he suspected of plotting rebellion.
Therefore, he also developed a "darkening value" and started thinking about how to take back the power from Long Fantian.
Only by finding out who truly wanted to kill Long Fantian, clearing up the misunderstanding, and convincing Long Xinghuang that Long Fantian had no intention of rebelling, can the mission be completed.
Qi Tong said that because the accuracy of predictions in this world has continued to decline, there is no more predictive data to refer to now.
If Mu Tiantian wants to know the accurate information, she must go out and contact other relevant people.
Seeing her bright eyes, Long Fantian smiled without even realizing it. "Really?"
...
After leaving the Regent's Palace, Mu Tiantian had a clear goal and headed straight for the First Restaurant.
The Seven Detection System detected that the Imperial Advisor Xin Liangmu and General Jing Huaxiong had arranged to meet at a restaurant, indicating that there must be some unspeakable connection between the two.
Perhaps it's related to this assassination attempt at the hunting grounds.
Long Fantian had always suspected that the emperor wanted to kill him, so she needed to find evidence to show Long Fantian that the emperor had no intention of killing him, but that someone else was behind it. Then she would persuade Long Fantian to stop his rebellion, and at the same time make the emperor think that someone was trying to sow discord between them.
Mu Tiantian stood outside the restaurant, where people were coming and going and business was booming.
Qi Tong reminds you: [This restaurant used to belong to Shi Changbo, but it's now managed by his young apprentice, Lu Ke, who is also your junior brother. Just so you know, he recognizes you in women's clothing.]
Mu Tiantian didn't go in; instead, she turned around and walked towards the pharmacy opposite the restaurant.
Chunyu hurriedly asked, "Miss Mu, aren't you going to the restaurant? This is the best restaurant in the capital."
Seeing her eager expression, Mu Tiantian asked, "You really want me to go in?"
Chunyu replied naturally, "Didn't Miss Mu think the food at the Prince's mansion was bad? So the Prince specifically instructed us to bring you to this First Restaurant for a good meal."
"I see." Mu Tiantian nodded. "I just wanted to buy some medicine and take it later. There are too many people now."
"Buy medicine?" Chunyu asked warily. "Miss Mu, just let us know if you need anything."
Mu Tiantian understood her concerns and smiled, "Don't worry, it's not poison."
After saying that, she went into the pharmacy.
Chunyu gave a dry laugh, "Miss Mu, that's not what I meant..."
As they were talking, Dongxue caught a glimpse of a figure outside the restaurant and tugged at Chunyu's arm.
The two looked across at each other.
Xin Liangmu and Jing Huaxiong entered the restaurant chatting and laughing.
Dongxue immediately stepped forward and quietly followed him inside.
