Chapter 12: A Mistake



"Doctor, what's going on?"

This was the first time that Rong Zhen was so worried about a woman. He felt like his heart was being eaten by ants and he couldn't sit still and feel uneasy.

"I have already applied the needle, and the girl's condition has improved slightly, but the poison needle has already entered her flesh and blood. It will take some time to remove the poison."

"What kind of poison is this needle filled with?"

You know, the one lying on the bed should have been him, but by some strange coincidence it became Gu Yunru!

Rong Zhen's heart was filled with regret, his brows were twisted into a knot.

Doctor Li cupped his hands and said humbly, "This poison should be the venom of the scorpion, the first of the five poisons. The girl's body has begun to show symptoms of alternating hot and cold. The cock is about to crow. When the sun sets, we must use other poisons to fight poison with poison. I just don't know if the girl's body can withstand it."

Gu Yunru could vaguely hear their conversation and couldn't help feeling miserable. She had just arrived and she didn't expect... God, was she going to die again?

Then she saw a blurry light engulfing her, and her body felt an unprecedented tearing pain, as if something was biting her flesh...

It was dawn at the Gu Mansion.

"What happened to Yunru? She didn't come back all night, and she didn't even bother to send someone to report the incident."

Madam Gu and Mr. Gu were sitting in the main hall, waiting for news from the prince and Gu Yunru, but unexpectedly, no news came from either of them.

"Ahem, sir, this lonely man and woman didn't come home all night, could it be..."

Madam Gu fanned the flames. Fortunately, the two of them were already engaged. Otherwise, if outsiders heard about it, they would probably laugh at them! "Don't talk nonsense. Yunru is a straightforward child. She shouldn't do anything immoral. Besides, Yunru and His Royal Highness Prince Zhao are already engaged. This marriage has to be done."

"Master is right. Master is sensible."

Mrs. Gu smiled complacently, but quickly stopped smiling.

"Master and Madam, something bad has happened. Something has happened to the eldest lady!"

A servant came to report in panic, and Madam Gu's eyebrows jumped. Could it be that something really happened? Or maybe His Royal Highness Prince Zhao didn't like Gu Yunru and chopped her in half in anger. It was not impossible.

"What happened? You look so flustered."

Mrs. Gu pretended to be calm, but her heart was already surging with anger.

"In reply to Madam, the young lady accidentally encountered an assassin last night and was poisoned. She is now being kept in Prince Zhao's mansion."

"assassin?"

Mr. Gu raised his thick eyebrows, looking quite worried.

"Yes, Master, but the assassin has not been caught yet. Prince Zhao's Mansion sent someone to tell you that Master and Madam don't have to worry."

Master Gu waved his long sleeves and the servant retreated easily.

Qiu Shui Pavilion.

Gu Junyao, the second daughter of the Gu family, was swinging back and forth leisurely on the swing in the wind. She caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure behind her and sighed slowly, "Come out, I saw you a long time ago."

Gu Junyue stuck out her tongue with a playful smile, stood in front of her and said, "Sister, I'm here to tell you a good news."

"What good news? Could it be that Gu Yunru has been tortured to death by the Demon Lord Feng because he didn't come back all night?"

Gu Junyao dreamed of hearing such good news. She wanted to get back at Gu Yunru for all the teasing she had done to her sisters.

"No, no, but she is not far from death. I heard from the servants that she was poisoned by a scorpion and is in critical condition."

"Really? No wonder he didn't come back all night. I thought he was eaten up by that lunatic."

"Sister, you can't say that. If that little bitch is tortured to death by that lunatic, then wouldn't you be the next one to suffer?"

Even though Gu Junyue usually does things in an unreliable way, he still sees this matter very clearly. Gu Junru cannot die!

"That's right. Why didn't I think of that? If she died, wouldn't I be the next victim? She can't die. She must not die!"

Gu Junyao silently chanted Amitabha in her heart, clasped her hands together, and looked extremely pious. She grabbed Gu Junyue's hand and said, "Why don't we go to the palace to see her and see how she is now."

Gu Junyue originally wanted to join in the fun, but when she thought of the extremely gloomy face of Lord Rakshasa, she trembled all over.

"But what if the mad prince gets sick? We won't be able to resist him."

"What are you afraid of? Even Gu Yunru is alive. She won't hurt us."

“That makes sense.”

Gu Junyao thought to herself that she could use this as an excuse to visit her good sister, which was considered giving her enough face.

The scene changes to Prince Zhao's Mansion.

Gu Yunru's face was as pale as wax, and she lay on the bed in extreme pain. She had already endured four hours of agony, but her complexion had not improved at all.

"What on earth is going on? Doctor! Didn't you say that fighting poison with poison could save her life?"

Rong Zhen's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he stared straight at Doctor Li. Doctor Li's hands trembled slightly. He had never seen such a strange phenomenon before. The body actually had a rejection reaction.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Miss Gu's pulse and heartbeat have returned to normal, but the poisonous blood has not been forced out..."

"What? Are you trying to tell me that you can't do anything?"

The cold lines on Rong Zhen's face became even more chilling. His simple words made Doctor Li feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.

Doctor Li was so frightened that he fell to his knees, kowtowed to him and said, "Your Majesty, this poisonous blood can only be transferred to another body."

"It's easy. Just catch a servant."

After saying that, he looked at the maid standing at the door.

"No, the body used must be exactly the same as this girl's physique, otherwise it will be rejected."

"Then how can we know whether it is rejection?"

"See if the blood is fused."

"Never mind. I'll do it."

After hearing this, Doctor Li stood up tremblingly, took a small white porcelain bowl and put some water in it.

What Doctor Li never expected was that the blood of this girl and the prince could actually mix together.

"Your Highness, the blood has been fused together, but this concerns your own life and safety. Your Highness must not take any risks rashly."

"The person lying here should have been this king. It's nothing to sacrifice a little for her. Hurry up and change the blood. Stop talking nonsense."

“………”

Doctor Li tried every possible way to transfer the poisonous blood from Gu Yunru to Rong Zhen. After about an incense stick of time, Rong Zhen's face turned blue and his lips turned purple, showing obvious symptoms of poisoning.

"Your Majesty, please don't continue to change. Your body won't be able to bear it if you continue like this."

Doctor Li said he would stop Rong Zhen at all costs. It was rare to see someone as desperate and selfless as the prince.

"I am not dead yet, are you cursing me?"

"I dare not."
