Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

"Of course she will. During the years she has been married to the King of Wu, the princess has not been truly happy for a single day. If she knew that she only had one month left, she would have to live for herself."

"Okay," Gu Qinghe said, "I don't know how the scars on Pingyang's body have healed. The princess should be in much better condition when she wakes up tomorrow. You should leave as soon as possible."

The nanny was a little embarrassed, "Doctor Gu won't go with us?"

"If I go with you, it will certainly arouse the suspicion of the King of Wu. You just need to go, and I will arrange the rest."

She would go along, but it couldn't be that simple.

There were footsteps outside. Perhaps it was the maid who had just gone to deliver the message. The two looked at each other, and the nanny sent Gu Qinghe away.

When she came back, the maid was still standing by the door. Mammy frowned and whispered to her, "Go to the street and ask for a doctor. Find one with better medical skills."

The maid was a little confused, "Didn't the doctor just leave?"

"Her?" The nanny snorted and sneered, "I don't know how credible this person's words are. Who knows if it was arranged by the prince? He also said that our princess only has one month left. Bah, when I bring the princess back to the capital, I can invite any famous doctor. By then, the princess will be safe and sound."

Her eyes flickered as the maid asked, "What about the medicine that Mammy just gave the princess?"

"After taking the medicine, the princess can live like a normal person for a month. This month is enough time for us to return to the capital. She said that the princess will die in a month, but I don't believe it. If she stays here, she will really be killed by these people."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to feel that she had said too much, but this seemed understandable. She was old and had a nagging personality. Now, because of the princess's affairs, she was full of resentment towards the people and things in the Prince of Wu's Mansion. It was normal for her to complain.

The maid did not rush to the street to find a doctor, but went to see King Wu again.

After listening to her words, King Wu pondered for a moment, "Did she really say that?"

The maid nodded and said, "Your Highness, I repeated everything I said word for word. She seemed to think that Doctor Gu was arranged by you, Your Highness, so she didn't completely trust Doctor Gu."

The King of Wu laughed and said, "It's fine if she doesn't believe it. I just want her not to believe it."

He stroked his chin, and was originally a little hesitant about whether he would allow the princess to return to the capital when she woke up.

Now it seems that it would be better to let her go.

Although the Qi family loved and doted on her in the past, she had developed a lot of grudges with the Qi family over the years because of the affairs in the palace.

King Wu still believed in Gu Qinghe's medical skills, after all, it was Lu Zhiyao who taught him.

When he thought of Lu Zhiyao, the smile on King Wu's face disappeared instantly.

He didn't know what kind of mentality he was in now, it was like a child who had been eagerly waiting for a treasure and finally got it. He still liked it and held it in his hands like a treasure. But no matter how cautious he was, the treasure still avoided him and was disgusted by him.

It was as if he was the dirtiest mud in the world.

King Wu sullenly shook the man's image from his mind.

If the medicine that Gu Qinghe gave the princess could really make her normal within a month as she said, then if she fell ill again after returning to the capital, the Qi family would not be able to blame her.

The King of Wu thought very clearly. Based on his understanding of the princess, if he coaxed her, she would never say anything bad about herself in front of the Qi family.

She has been living like this for so many years, and there is only one month left. There is no need to tear her face with him.

Thinking of this, King Wu felt more relieved and waved to the maid, asking her to go down.

After leaving the Prince Wu's Mansion, Gao Cun saw that Gu Qinghe looked worried, so he asked tentatively, "Doctor Gu really plan to return to the capital?"

Gu Qinghe nodded, "Yes, I have to go back."

Now that her mother has been found, a huge stone in her heart has been put down, and Gu Qinghe can do her job with all her heart.

I no longer have to worry about putting my mother in danger by alerting the enemy.

A letter came from the capital yesterday, sent by Huo Shibei.

During his time in the capital, he was not idle and found out some useful information.

What surprised Gu Qinghe the most was that Lin Cong was dead.

Gu Qinghe had no idea how he died, and what Huo Shibei wrote in the letter was also unclear. He only said that the Lin family believed that Lin Cong was murdered, and the body has not been buried yet. The Lin family members cried and made a fuss in front of the Dali Temple and Jingzhao Prefecture every day, demanding an explanation.

Lin Cong's death was indeed somewhat unexpected to Gu Qinghe. This should have been a good and happy thing. The person who might have participated in harming his brother paid the price he deserved.

But Gu Qinghe couldn't be happy at all, she knew that things were definitely not that simple.

The uneasiness shrouded in the hazy fog reappeared. Lin Cong was like a puppet, and the person controlling the puppet found that someone was about to find him by following the clues on the puppet, so he had to abandon the puppet first.

Could this person be Yao Fangzhi?

"will not."

Shao Wei heard her mumbling and replied softly, "Yao Fangzhi and Lin Cong are birds of a feather. He doesn't need Lin Cong to help him hide the evil things he has done. He doesn't have such a smart brain."

Speaking of Yao Fangzhi, ever since Huo Shibei threw him at the gate of Yao Mansion, this man has been under house arrest by Yao Shiliang, and he has not left the gate of Yao Mansion in so many days.

Shao Wei had no intention of stopping any of Gu Qinghe's ideas, nor would he persuade her to stay behind him peacefully.

He had no doubt about Gu Qinghe's ability, he just regretted that he couldn't be with her all the time.

"When do you plan to leave?"

Gu Qinghe pursed her lips and rolled her eyes, "Does the King of Wu know that the Third Prince of Yun State has come to the Rui Dynasty?"

"Of course I know."

This is much simpler. Gu Qinghe twitched the corner of her lips and said, "Then I just need to wait for Princess Wu and the others to set off, and then I can follow them."

She planned to set out under the name of Lan Yu. After all, King Wu must have heard of Lan Yu's deeds. Since the third prince came to look for someone, he would certainly not return without finding that person. Gu Qinghe only needed to have someone dress up as Lan Yu and travel with him.

Regardless of whether it was true or false, King Wu would not dare to take the risk to test it.

If he had provoked the State of Yun, not to mention whether the person in the palace would let him go, if Chizhou fell, it would be the turn of Lizhou. He had not yet had enough of his peaceful days.

On the table were the cakes that Shao Wei had someone buy today. Gu Qinghe had just picked up a piece when the servants outside heard, "General, the people from Yun State have arrived."

The two looked at each other, and Gu Qinghe quickly put down the pastries and followed Shao Wei out.

Shao Wei asked her to stay here, but Gu Qinghe blinked and disagreed, not because of anything else, but out of curiosity.

It is said that the people of Yun are very good-looking, which can be seen from Lan Yu. I believe that the prince of Yun should be even more handsome.

Gu Qinghe was curious whether Ouyang Xia was brave enough to come out.
