Hearing Shui Ruotong say such self-pitying words, Ji Heng was heartbroken. He grabbed her hand, his eyes revealing deep love and resentment.

Gu Yunru looked at the two and thought they were a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman. She didn't expect that they would have to face so much resistance in order to be together. She walked up to them and directly inserted a silver needle into her temple. Shui Ruotong lay on the bed like a clay sculpture, unable to move.

"What are you doing? What do you want to do?!" Ji Heng looked at Gu Yunru in panic, his brows raised nervously.

"Don't worry, I'm here to see how she is. There are many toxins deposited in her body, which are also called aluminum toxins. If you want to remove them, you must have surgery." Gu Yunru watched the silver needle slowly turn from black to golden yellow, indicating that she had been poisoned for a long time. She barely relied on those drugs to precipitate all the toxins, but because all the toxins were blocked in her stomach and intestines, she became thin and could not be exposed to wind and sun.

Shui Ruotong looked at her in surprise. It seemed that the princess's magical skills were indeed well-deserved. She could easily find out the cause of her serious illness with just a silver needle.

Ji Heng seemed to have found a life-saving straw. He excitedly grabbed Gu Yunru's sleeve and looked at her and said, "Princess, can you help me cure Ruotong? If you can help me cure Ruotong, I will agree to any request you make!"

Seeing Ji Heng's steadfast loyalty, Gu Yunru was also moved by their earth-shattering love. She sat aside leisurely with her legs crossed. Shui Ruotong looked at Gu Yunru's embarrassed expression, probably because he didn't want to waste time saving her worthless life.

"Sir, please stop making things difficult for the princess. Ruotong knows her health best. So many doctors are helpless. Aren't you making things difficult for the princess?"

Shui Ruotong said this just to hint at Gu Yunru's plan to save her body. She rolled her eyes, stood up, snapped her fingers and said, "In order to remove the toxins in your body, you must undergo a large-scale operation. The operation means cutting open your lungs and cleaning out the black toxins in your lungs. However, since this scene is not a dust-free space, there is no way to perform the operation on you."

Gu Yunru kept talking to them about some of the rules of surgery, leaving Ji Heng confused. He couldn't hear what she was talking about. It turned out that she wanted to cut open the heart and lungs. He opened his lips in surprise and said, "But wouldn't the person die in this way? How can we still perform surgery?"

"You just don't understand. That's why I suggested that we perform the surgery in a dust-free space. We can't perform the surgery in a place like this, unless we are in an ice cellar. But the surgery will take at least half an hour, and I'm afraid Miss Shui's body can't bear it."

Gu Yunru knew that Shui Ruotong's body might not last more than two months. If she continued like this, she would die sooner or later. It was rare that she had a kind heart like a bodhisattva. Seeing this situation, she couldn't help but take action to save her.

"Princess, I beg you, as long as you can save Ruotong, I will agree to anything you ask for!" Ji Heng grabbed her arm excitedly. Gu Yunru glanced at Shui Ruotong, then walked out of the door with Ji Heng, and the two walked on a path in the woods.

"There are no extra people here, so I will be frank with you. You should know what's going on with Shu'er being pregnant with a Gu fetus, right?" Gu Yunru looked at his expression steadily. As long as his eyes dodged for a moment, she would immediately capture his mood and panic. No one could lie in front of her, including Ji Heng in front of her.

"Yes... I did all this. I'm a bastard. I'm not good. But I don't want Ruotong to see me marrying another woman during her lifetime. My father's order is hard to disobey. I have no choice but to think of some ways to deal with the princess. Princess, how did you see that?"

Ji Heng thought he had done it perfectly, and the timing of his contact with Princess Dongping did not make anyone doubt why the woman in front of him was so sharp and able to see through everything, which made him feel frightened, as if he was a man without secrets in front of her.

“In fact, this is not something I saw, but something I inferred. In addition, Su Yue and I have been looking up some methods of curing Gu fetuses in ancient books, and we found that this kind of thing was deliberately done by someone.

Gu fetuses do exist, but to be placed in a person's body, it must be done without anyone noticing, and the victim must be willing to enjoy it, so there is no one else but you."

Gu Yunru thought of a story Rong Zhen had told her before. When the late emperor was favoring a concubine, he tricked the concubine into taking the supplements given by the emperor.

Later, the concubine mistakenly thought that she was pregnant, but unexpectedly, the baby was a monster. Later, the concubine and the monster were cremated together. This incident was also buried with memory, but Rong Zhen still remembered clearly that the incident happened when he was seven years old.

"I didn't expect you to be so smart. It seems that no matter what tricks I use, they are nothing compared to you. It's not that there is no way to break the Gu fetus, but we have to wait until the victim gives birth to the Gu fetus obediently, and no accidents can happen in the middle of the process, otherwise it will backfire on the body."

"But have you ever thought that Shu'er is innocent? She is still naively fantasizing about the life after marrying you, and you treat her like this." Gu Yunru clenched her fists angrily, her eyes full of rage, and she blamed him harshly. Ji Heng also seemed very ashamed, especially after being exposed by her, he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"It's all my fault, but as long as you help me save Ruotong, no matter how you ask me to apologize, I won't complain. Please help me save Ruotong!" Ji Heng was willing to kneel in front of Gu Yunru to cure Shui Ruotong's illness. This seven-foot-tall man was willing to do this for a woman...

"Okay, stop kneeling on me. But you have to find a sterile and dust-free space for the operation. Otherwise, I won't be able to perform the operation, especially lung surgery."

Gu Yunru repeatedly warned that such a place was not easy to find, and Ji Heng silently kept the request in mind. After Gu Yunru left, he sent a large group of people to start looking for the space she mentioned.
