Chapter 224 Was he poisoned?



However, unexpected events still occurred during these steps.

The first unexpected event was the monarch of the Great Qi, Mo Junxing.

The second unexpected event was Shen Hechuan.

This interrupted Gu Jingchun's plan.

Fortunately, everything remained on track.

Although the process was a bit complicated, nothing changed.

Gu Jingchun originally planned to go back and spend some time with his adoptive mother after this period.

After all, since her rebirth, she has been busy with various things and has rarely had time to talk to her adoptive mother.

But just then, her adoptive mother had an accident.

******

"Miss, miss?"

"Mother..."

Gu Jingchun kept hearing voices calling her name.

But Gu Jingchun couldn't open his eyes.

At this moment, she also missed her mother very much.

She couldn't help but murmur aloud.

"Mother."

Hearing Gu Jingchun's murmurs and seeing her flushed face, Lan Xin couldn't help but place her hand on Gu Jingchun's forehead, only to find that Gu Jingchun's forehead was burning hot.

Lanxin quickly poked her head out of the carriage.

"Young Master Wenxi, the young lady has a fever."

Upon hearing this, Ye Wenxi immediately spurred his horse and rode over.

Do you have any medication with you?

Lan Xin nodded, "Take some with you, in case of emergency."

"But you know the girl's health condition, so we should find a doctor as soon as possible."

Ye Wenxi nodded, "We'll reach the village soon, I'll go and ask right away."

As Ye Wenxi spoke, he took the lead and rode off on horseback.

The village was small, and there weren't many people living there. Ye Wenxi knocked on several doors, but no one answered.

Finally, an elderly person opened the door.

Upon seeing them, the old man didn't say much, but nodded and let them in.

However, her house was too small.

All we could do was let Gu Jingchun and the others rest.

Therefore, Ye Wenxi thought about finding another place so that they could rest.

Strangely, no matter how hard they knocked, no one answered the door.

Finally, Ye Wenxi ordered his men to climb over the wall and find the trembling master of the house hiding inside.

Ye Wenxi handed over a silver ingot, and only then did the other party reluctantly allow them to enter.

Now that they finally had a place to stay, Ye Wenxi began looking for a doctor for Gu Jingchun.

Gu Jingchun has already taken the emergency medication.

Although the situation has stabilized and the temperature has dropped somewhat.

However, Gu Jingchun still did not wake up, which made Ye Wenxi increasingly worried.

However, the village was too small and there was no doctor at all.

Finally, she held the knife to her master's neck before he took Ye Wenxi to find a doctor in another village.

By the time Ye Wenxi returned with the doctor, it was already dark.

The doctor was put down from the horse by Ye Wenxi. His legs were weak and he vomited before going to the room.

He frowned after looking at Gu Jingchun's face and checking her pulse.

"This young lady has a very special constitution..."

"Has she been poisoned?"

Lan Xin glanced at Ye Wenxi, then nodded gently.

"Logically speaking, the poison this girl was poisoned with was extremely strong, and she shouldn't have lived much longer, but for some reason, the poison was neutralized."

The doctor shook his head as he spoke.

"No, it seems like there's no solution yet. Although her life has been saved, her body has collapsed. This young lady needs to be treated as soon as possible."

Otherwise, it would certainly endanger their lives!

The doctor sighed again as he spoke.

"In all my years of practicing medicine, this is the first time I've ever seen such a disease. All I can do now is try my best."

As he spoke, he wrote out a form and gave it to Ye Wenxi.

Ye Wenxi took the prescription but frowned.

There were so few people in this village that it took the doctor a long time to find it on horseback.

Where should he go to get the medicine?

This doctor was the only one in the surrounding villages, and upon seeing the situation, he immediately said:

"There are no pharmacies around here. These kinds of medicines are usually available in villages. I have some too, I can give them to you."

However, there are a few herbs among them that are not available in the village; you'll need to go to a distant town to buy them.

"It's just that this town is quite far from here, and it would take at least a day and a night to get there and back."

"This girl is too weak and urgently needs these medicines. You must be back by this time tomorrow."

Otherwise, her body wouldn't be able to hold up.

Ye Wenxi nodded upon hearing this.

"Okay, please show me the way, doctor."

Ye Wenxi did not send the doctor away, but arranged for him to rest there. She then spoke a few more words to Lanxin before preparing to go to town.

Gu Jinxi walked over at this moment.

"Uncle Wenxi, can I go with you?"

"My mother is so distressed to see me like this, I want to help her."

Upon hearing this, Ye Wenxi dismounted, squatted down to be level with Gu Jinxi, and then said:

“Seele, you can’t go.”

You are your mother's closest person. You need to stay here to take care of her. You can't let your mother get hurt, understand?

Gu Jinxi nodded, then watched Ye Wenxi leave.

He went back and stood beside Gu Jingchun, quietly watching him.

Gu Jingchun lay on the "bed," his face rosy.

This bed is strange; the entire bed is made of mud, and a cotton quilt is laid on top of it.

The quilt was old and looked quite worn, but it was washed fairly clean, which showed that the old lady was very clean.
