Chapter 29 Wedding? I will never touch you in my life
Chu Ruohan clenched the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, her knuckles turning white.
The situation was critical at the moment and there was no room for hesitation. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes, she had regained some of her determination.
"Go and make the medicine. Every day you can live is a day. As long as you are still alive, I don't believe that we can't find a way to break the spell!"
Gu Junze took the medicine and fell into a deep sleep. Chu Ruohan sat quietly beside the bed, never moving an inch, her eyes fixed on Gu Junze's bloodless, paper-white face.
Could it be that in his previous life, Gu Junze noticed something strange and secretly stopped taking the medicine, which led to his illness and death on this day?
Fortunately, she asked Qin Fang to find a few doctors in advance.
Gu Junze slowly woke up, his eyes still a little hazy and dazed.
Chu Ruohan had been staring at him closely. When she saw him move, she immediately leaned forward and said anxiously, "You're awake! Are you feeling unwell? I'll go get the doctor."
As she spoke, she hurriedly stood up, but Gu Junze grabbed her wrist. Chu Ruohan turned around in surprise, and met his deep eyes, which seemed to contain endless words.
Without a word, he lifted up Chu Ruohan's sleeve. On her fair arm, deep teeth marks lay, surrounded by redness and swelling, a shocking mixture of bruises and purples.
Gu Junze's gaze froze instantly, his pupils shrank sharply, and an unknown emotion spread out, tightly wrapping around his heart.
His lips trembled slightly, and he squeezed out a few words with difficulty: "Why don't you get out of the way?" His voice was hoarse and dark, revealing a bit of disbelief and heartbreaking pity.
Chu Ruohan subconsciously pulled her arm back and hurriedly pulled down her sleeve. "The situation was urgent at the time, so there was no time to think too much."
Gu Junze seemed to be nailed to the bed by these words. What virtue and ability did he have to deserve her to treat him so unreservedly?
After a long moment, he sighed deeply, as if he had made up his mind. He slowly said, "I am doomed to die. When my time is running out, I will give you a letter of divorce and set you free. I will never let you be dragged down by a sickly person like me for the rest of your life."
"Let's not talk about this for now. You just woke up. I'll go call the doctor first." After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly towards the door.
Gu Junze had no idea that Chu Ruohan had other plans at this time.
It seems that the plan should be brought forward. Gu Junze's condition is getting worse and worse, and his life or death is uncertain. If we really wait until he is powerless to make plans before making plans, everything will be too late.
She needs to adopt a son from the royal family as soon as possible...
After a long moment, Doctor Qian withdrew, shook his head slightly, and sighed, "Although we've suppressed it temporarily this time, it's only treating the symptoms, not the root cause. The poison in the prince's body is extremely hidden, and ordinary pulse diagnosis wouldn't reveal it at all. But now it's been intensified, and with that evil poppy... the two mixed in, it's even more troublesome."
"If you continue to drink it, you can live a little longer. If you stop taking it, you will die immediately."
Gu Junze looked calm, as if he had expected this result.
Ying Qing fell to his knees with a plop, "Doctor Qian, as long as you can save the prince, my life will be yours."
The man who was known for his integrity was now crying like a child, his voice pleading in the silent room, "Doctor, you are a skilled doctor, there must be a way. Please take another closer look, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, we will never let him go!"
"Before her death, the Princess told me to take good care of the Crown Prince. If I watched him die helplessly, how could I possibly fulfill her instructions? I have been with the Crown Prince since I was a child. Without him, there would be no point in living. Please have mercy on me and save him!"
Ying Qing's forehead hit the ground heavily, making a thud.
Chu Ruohan was deeply moved, her eyes welling up with tears. "Doctor Qian, please reconsider. As long as we can save the prince, we will be willing to pay any price, even if it means we have to give up all our wealth. I only ask that you don't give up."
Doctor Qian looked reluctant, sighed deeply, and said slowly, "Alas, the ghost poppy will not kill the prince for the time being. The main reason is that the poison in his body is very rare. If we can find the source of the poison, I can still try my best."
"The incense and ink are still there. Try to detoxify them first."
As Chu Ruohan spoke, she quickly stepped forward and handed an exquisitely carved box to Doctor Qian. Inside the box lay a few pieces of unburned incense and a box of warm ink blocks.
Chu Ruohan bowed solemnly to Doctor Qian, "Doctor Qian, the prince's life is now in your hands."
Doctor Qian took the box with a serious expression. He carefully scanned the incense and ink and said, "I will do my best."
Chu Ruohan quietly sent away all the other doctors, leaving only Dr. Qian, who was highly skilled in medicine and knowledgeable, and even opened a pharmacy specifically for him.
As soon as Gu Junze felt better, she returned to the Chu family. Coincidentally, the caravan was about to return, so she wanted to go and ask her fourth uncle about the ink block in person.
The wedding banquet in the front hall was still going on, and the noisy laughter and joy mixed with the elegant music of stringed instruments and entered Sui Jinxuan.
Du Ruoling curled up under the quilt, her thin body looking even more frail and helpless against the backdrop of the bright red quilt.
She clutched the quilt tightly with both hands, her knuckles turning white from the force. The quilt seemed to be her last fortress, but the joyful sound was like a sharp needle, piercing her eardrums and into her heart.
Tears rolled down her pale cheeks like a flood.
The scenes of the past time with Gu Chengan kept flashing in my mind, and those gentle and affectionate love words were still ringing in my ears.
He once knelt on one knee under the peach tree, took her hand, and vowed to be with her forever.
However, at this moment, her beautiful dream was shattered.
"Liar, liar..."
On the other side, the bride, who had paid homage to heaven and earth, had been sent to the bridal chamber.
Who dares to make trouble in the wedding room of the young princess in Prince Yong’s mansion? The room was completely silent.
"You also know that I have someone I love. It is not my wish to marry you. I will never accept you in this life, let alone touch you or have children with you." Gu Cheng'an's voice was cold and hard, and he didn't even take off the red veil.
The dragon and phoenix candles flickered in the room, and the bride suddenly lifted the red veil covering her head.
There was no trace of shyness on that face. Instead, he raised a flamboyant sneer and stabbed it straight at Gu Cheng'an.
"Gu Cheng'an, you'd better go through the formalities, otherwise your concubine tomorrow..." Lin Xingyao threatened him directly before she could finish her words.
"If I really want to control a little concubine, it's just a matter of snapping my fingers. You are a smart person, think carefully, and don't let your momentary impulse put your beloved one in jeopardy."
Gu Chengan's eyes turned red instantly!
Their eyes met.
In the end, Gu Cheng'an was defeated. He gritted his teeth in hatred, took a deep breath, and suppressed his resentment.
"Okay, Lin Xingyao, you're so cruel!" He squeezed out these words from between his teeth.
After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the table. He reached out and grabbed the wine jug and roughly filled two cups with wedding wine. Some wine splashed out and soaked the red silk on the table.
Gu Chengan strode back and stuffed a glass of wine into Lin Xingyao's hands. His face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it: "Drink!"
After drinking, Gu Cheng'an fell directly on the bed, his eyes closed, his face flushed abnormally, veins on his forehead visible, and he groaned.
Lin Xingyao looked at him hugging the quilt in heat, and a hint of scorn appeared on the corner of her mouth. It was really disgusting...
