The moment Mei Chu saw the change in Gu Lin's hand, her dim eyes instantly flashed with intense light.
A few breaths later, Mei Chu spoke in a trembling voice, "Madam, your blood seems to be able to detoxify the Lord."
When the blood of the two people comes into contact, the toxin will slowly dissipate.
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyan reacted for a moment and quickly bit his finger, but when Gu Qingyan's blood dripped down, the bluish-black toxin did not change at all.
A moment of silence fell over the atmosphere. Mei Chu swallowed hard. The night the master was poisoned... he immediately... with his wife...
Perhaps for this reason, only the Lady's blood can cure this poison.
Is it because of the Jiang family's bloodline? Then why can't Ayan's blood be used?
Before Jiang Yu could think it through, her hand cut herself before her brain could process it. Seeing this, Mei Chu did the same without hesitation, cutting Gu Lin's arm as well.
Blood dripped down the bruises on Gu Lin's arm, but the bruises didn't disappear as quickly as they had at first. Jiang Yu didn't try to stop the bleeding, and the color in her lips gradually faded.
"Dr. Mei, how much longer does Her Majesty need to have her blood drawn?"
Jiang He also entered the room, and seeing Jiang Yu's appearance, he couldn't help but ask.
"Now that things have come to this, we can only... leave it to fate."
Jiang Yu forced a smile, giving Jiang He a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Brother, I'm fine."
"If I don't save him, I will never have a peaceful life."
"He is not only Gu Lin, but also carries the fate of millions of people on his shoulders."
Jiang He's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Gu Lin lying on the bed with some confusion. Why would A Yu say such a thing...?
Gu Qingyan clearly realized something was wrong, but before he could speak, Jiang Yu used her other, uninjured hand to rub Gu Qingyan's head. "Ayan, go out with your uncle first."
She didn't want Ayan and her brother to see her like this.
On this day, Jiang Yu bled for a full three hours.
It wasn't until Mei Chu started taking out gauze that Jiang Yu reached out and pressed her hand against the wound. At this point, Jiang Yu didn't even have the courage to stand up.
"Your poison is cured."
Jiang Yu gave a weak but relieved smile. "Get some sleep."
The next second, Jiang Yu turned to Mei Chu and said, "I can't get up right now either. Tell me about Gu Lin's poison."
Leaning against the soft pillow, Jiang Yu released all her strength.
Seeing Mei Chu pause, Jiang Yu's voice rang out again, "Your master said that he will no longer hide anything from me."
"The Lord's poison could have been cured."
Mei Chu spoke softly, “Lingxiao Pavilion went through many hardships to obtain the snow lotus from Lingshan, but at that time, the lady was having a difficult childbirth, so the master used the snow lotus on you, lady.”
"For so many years, the Lord has suffered from the poison every fifteenth of the month, and has relied on medicine to slow the spread of the poison."
Everyone says that the King of Da Ning has accumulated great power and prestige, as unapproachable as a flower on a high mountain. But who knows that His Majesty has to endure the pain of poisoning every month and cannot use his internal energy?
"That time in Heng County, the young master was attacked and injured. The lord was furious and used his internal energy."
Mei Chu's mouth was full of bitterness, "And there's also the last time you were poisoned, Madam, the Lord used his internal energy a second time."
Jiang Yu was speechless for a moment. She turned her head to look at Gu Lin lying on the bed, and her heart began to feel a mix of emotions.
Seeing this, Mei Chu tactfully withdrew, leaving Gu Lin and Jiang Yu alone.
There was no sound coming from inside the house for a long time.
......
Jiang Yu slumped to the side of the bed, having fallen into a deep sleep due to excessive blood loss. The two people's breaths gradually intertwined. Jiang He, who wanted to come in to check on Jiang Yu's condition, was stunned for a few moments before retreating.
That evening, Jiang Yu returned to the palace in a sedan chair, without leaving any words for Gu Lin.
Only Ling Mama and Wanji knew Jiang Yu's condition. As soon as they returned to Zhaoning Palace, Ling Mama helped Jiang Yu lie down.
"Your Majesty, please take care of your health."
Jiang Yu smiled helplessly, "Granny, I didn't think much about it at the time. I just wanted to save him. Fortunately, his poison has been cured."
I owe him several lives.
Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he... had saved her and Ayan several times from places she hadn't seen.
"His Highness is a kind-hearted man, and now that the poison has been cured, it's a great thing." Granny Ling tucked the blanket around Jiang Yu. "Your Highness can rest assured now."
The pain from the wound made Jiang Yu curl up into a ball.
Only then did she have time to think about that matter... The person who came to Zhaoning Palace on the night of her wedding was Gu Lin.
That night, dressed in her wedding gown, she sat gracefully inside the crimson bed curtains of Zhaoning Palace, awaiting Gu Heng's arrival.
However, the red candle, as thick as a baby's fist, was extinguished, footsteps approached, and she was suddenly pressed down, her hot breath hitting her skin without restraint.
Not long after, she was overcome by intense pain, which made her unable to speak, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Throughout the entire process, neither of them made a sound.
Only at the very end, her tears were kissed away one by one, and the person on top of her seemed to let out a long sigh, before carefully covering her body with a quilt.
They didn't make any other noise when they left.
Recalling the scene of her wedding day, Jiang Yu felt a pang of fear. It turned out that Gu Heng and Consort Rong had originally intended to have a death row inmate take her virginity that night.
[Gu Heng, Consort Rong... I never knew our feud ran so deep.]
[To the point of... a fight to the death.]
At this moment, Jiang Yu thought somewhat absurdly, thank goodness... thank goodness it was Gu Lin who stepped into Zhaoning Palace that night.
And her son, Ayan, was Gu Lin's child.
Jiang Yu suddenly laughed. Gu Heng... Heaven has been kind to her. So, every time Gu Heng sees A Yan over the years, he thinks of the sins he and Consort Rong committed together.
She finally understood everything.
There was only one question: why did Gu Lin also dream of his past life, and of how she died tragically in that life?
Jiang Yu fell into a deep sleep while thinking about it, and did not wake up until the sun was high in the sky the next day.
"Granny, is he awake?"
Jiang Yu paused in her attempt to get up, waiting for Ling Mama's reply.
"Your Majesty, the Prince has not yet woken up. Doctor Mei said that it will take some time to completely detoxify him. The Prince's pulse has returned to normal, so Your Majesty need not worry."
Jiang Yu nodded. After dressing properly, she spoke softly again, "Bring that Miss Xie that my brother mentioned the other day to the palace sometime so I can take a look at her."
