Chapter 189: Less than a Year of Life



When he woke up again, it was already bright. The tidy house was filled with the aroma of medicine, and outside it was so quiet that only the chirping of cicadas could be heard.

Rong Xiu only felt an abnormal pain in the back of his neck, as if he had been hit by something heavy. He sat up with one hand covering the back of his neck, only to find that there was something lying next to him.

When he moved, Hua Yuanzhao, who was lying on the side of the bed, woke up and yawned loudly, covering his lips with his hands.

"Finally he woke up." Hua Yuanzhao said vaguely.

Rong Xiu looked at the sky outside, then at Hua Yuanzhao, whose hair was disheveled from sleeping, and felt a warm feeling in his heart.

"You... are you so worried about me?" Rong Xiu's voice was frighteningly soft and gentle, which didn't seem like him at all.

Hua Yuanzhao rolled his eyes and seriously suspected that this guy's brain was filled with water when he was soaking in the river yesterday.

Rong Xiu looked at Hua Yuanzhao and found that she didn't even change her clothes, which touched her even more.

"Yes." Hua Yuanzhao raised his hand and shook his wrist and the hand hanging on his wrist in front of Rong Xiu.

"I was forced." Hua Yuanzhao said seriously, "It was you who kept holding my wrist yesterday."

As a result, she couldn’t even change her clothes and her body was stinking!

Rong Xiu awkwardly withdrew his hand, cleared his throat, and pretended to be indifferent and said, "Well, you are a miracle doctor, can't you find a way to make my hand lose its power?"

Hua Yuanzhao rolled his eyes, not wanting to bother with him. He just rubbed his wrist, which was numb and almost numb, and asked, "What kind of poison have you been poisoned by?"

Last night, Rong Xiu suddenly grabbed her wrist, his face ferocious like a devil, as if he wanted to eat her alive.

Thanks to Nanny Gu's quick reaction, she knocked Rong Xiu unconscious, otherwise she really wouldn't know what to do.

"It's just... the ordinary kind of medicine?" Rong Xiu asked tentatively, "Didn't you ask about it last night?"

"Absolutely not!" Hua Yuanzhao said confidently. Not to mention the dirty medicine for humans, even if it was an aphrodisiac for breeding elephants, she could detoxify it!

There will definitely be no rebound!

Rong Xiu was silent. This poison was something he had been carrying from his mother's womb. On the 15th of every month, when the poison took effect, the pain was like a burning fire, and nothing was more painful than cutting flesh and breaking bones.

The poison originated from Nanzhao. The Duke and his wife have been guarding the border between the two countries for many years without returning. Aren't they looking for an antidote for him?

But over the years, the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion had searched all over the world for famous doctors for him, but all they could do was suppress the toxicity and alleviate the pain when the poison took effect.

As we age, in addition to the pain, the poison also increases our desire.

Every time the poison took effect, he would be overwhelmed with lust and could not control himself. Later, in the cave behind the Huguo Temple, he almost raped Zhao Zhao...

"Why don't you say something!" Hua Yuanzhao stared at Rong Xiu in confusion. What happened to this guy? Has the poison taken effect again?

Rong Xiu coughed dryly and looked away awkwardly.

Although he was young when he flirted with Zhao Zhao, he was also polite. Later that day, he wrote a letter to his mother asking her to propose marriage for him, but he accidentally learned that he would not live long...

In order to fight for a chance of survival, he rode to the border, risking his life to go deep into Nanzhao to see the miracle doctor, but he was still one step too late.

The miracle doctor died tragically, and although he was given the false title of a young general, he had less than a year left to live...

This time I returned to Beijing, just to return to my hometown.

"You're wrong." Rong Xiu said lightly, and did not forget to tease: "Are you not good at medicine? You can even misjudge something like this?"

Since Zhao Zhao can't see it, it seems that there is no way to get rid of this poison.

If that was the case, why should he say it out loud and upset her?

Hua Yuanzhao stared at Rong Xiu and felt his fist harden and he wanted to hit someone.

Why is this person always so out of tune? It's already this late! Why is he still hiding his illness and avoiding medical treatment?

Shi Hu stood outside, feeling sad. He originally thought that Miss Hua might be able to cure the young master's illness, but now it seems...

He cleared his throat, stepped forward quickly and said respectfully: "Miss Hua, there is news from the palace, please come in."

Shihu paused, then looked at Rongxiu: "Sir, Madam said that if you can get up, you can come with us."

Rong Xiu was slightly surprised and looked at Hua Yuanzhao in confusion. Why did he enter the palace for no reason?

Could it be that the emperor or the queen is seriously ill?

"But has there been any result for the things Madam sent?" Hua Yuanzhao asked solemnly and carefully.

Shihu nodded: "Yes."

"What are you talking about?" Rong Xiu threw back the quilt, got out of bed, and stood barefoot on the ground.

"Want to know?" Hua Yuanzhao smiled slightly, and took advantage of his daze to walk out with his arms folded, leaving only one sentence: "I am not good at medicine, I can't tell you, you guess!"

Shihu silently gave Rongxiu a thumbs up, then turned and left.

Tsk, this little ancestor has really made it! He actually dared to say that Miss Hua’s medical skills are not good!
