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

The nanny walked up to Gu Qinghe and gently told her that the princess wanted her to come in for a talk. She was a little nervous, "Our princess is not a bad person, but she has had a hard time these past few years, so her temper has gotten worse. If she said anything unpleasant, don't take it personally. I will apologize to you on behalf of the princess later."

"How could that be?" Gu Qinghe nodded with a smile, signaling the nanny not to worry.

The carriage curtain was opened, and Princess Wu's wooden eyes fell on Gu Qinghe's face. She seemed to have just seen Gu Qinghe's appearance today. She carefully described her facial features in her mind and sighed softly, "Although you are not her biological daughter, you look nothing like her."

Gu Qinghe only smiled and did not respond to Princess Wu's words. Instead, he asked, "Princess, are you feeling unwell in any other way?"

It is easy for smart people to talk to each other. Princess Wu knew very well that Gu Qinghe avoided the topic.

But she didn't need an answer.

After taking the medicine given by Gu Qinghe and waking up, Princess Wu felt that she had been living an unhappy life these years.

How could the King of Wu be safe and sound when her life was like this?

After silently telling her about Gu Qinghe's plan, Princess Wu only thought about it for a moment. Combined with the King Wu's anxiety these days and the news from the people she had arranged, it was not difficult to guess Gu Qinghe's identity.

The only person who could make King Wu restless in these years was Lu Zhiyao. Princess Wu knew long ago that Lu Zhiyao was hidden by King Wu, but it was still unknown where she was hidden.

King Wu was very cautious, and he made sure everything he did with Lu Zhiyao was foolproof, leaving her unable to find any clues.

Gu Qinghe's appearance was too coincidental, and her behavior was somewhat similar to Lu Zhiyao's. Even though this face had nothing to do with Lu Zhiyao, she was still sure at a glance that this must be Lu Zhiyao's adopted daughter.

In the past, Princess Wu would probably have said something sarcastic.

She thought that when she faced Gu Qinghe, she would be unable to suppress the hatred she felt towards Lu Zhiyao, but strangely, her heart was very calm, without any ripples.

She was shocked herself, but that was just as well.

So that she wouldn't be controlled by her emotions and lose her mind again.

Without answering Gu Qinghe's question, Princess Wu asked, "What is your purpose in helping me?"

Gu Qinghe raised her lips slightly, "I have been exposed to medicine since I was young. What is the purpose of curing diseases and saving lives? If I really have to give a reason, it is to make some money. After all, the price of some herbs is really expensive."

"In terms of reason, Princess can understand that I am trying so hard to help you for the sake of the princess. After all, before I left the capital, the princess gave me a lot of benefits and even told me that Lizhou is not far from Chizhou. If possible, please go to Lizhou to see you for her."

When Pingyang was mentioned, Princess Wu's fingertips trembled. She finally spoke to show her concern for her daughter, "Is there any hope that the scars on her body can be removed?"

"Of course I can, but I'm sure I'll have to endure some pain."

Perhaps thinking of Pingyang's concern about the scars on his body over the years, Princess Wu's face was a little bitter, "In fact, if those scars had been carefully treated at the beginning, they might not be impossible to heal..."

"She should have resented me over the years, but I've already lost Hong Zhao, and I can't lose her again."

Her tone was very light, as if a gust of wind passed by, taking away the regret and melancholy without leaving a trace.

Hong Zhao was the son of Princess Wu who died young.

Due to her personality, Princess Wu is not a person who likes to be sentimental, so it is very difficult for her to thank Gu Qinghe.

After all, she had regarded Lu Zhiyao as her enemy since she was young, and now, the daughter of this enemy saved her.

But words that cannot be said can be replaced by things. Princess Wu took out an exquisite small wooden box from the small bag next to the carriage.

When the wooden box was opened, a broken token stained with blood was revealed.

Gu Qinghe's eyes seemed to be glued to the token. Princess Wu handed it to her and said, "I saw this token in the study when I was in the capital before. I also saw this token on Huo Qiu a few years ago."

"Before I left, I found a way to steal this thing. You give it to Huo Shibei. Although I don't know if it will be useful, I think it shouldn't be a mistake to give it to him."

Now that we have left Lizhou, even if King Wu realizes and discovers that the token is lost, it will be of no use.

I don’t know what the King of Wu was thinking, the bloodstains on the token have never been cleaned.

Gu Qinghe held the token in her hand; the strong smell of blood made her dizzy.

If it is true as the Princess of Wu said, that this token was carried by General Huoqiu, then where did the King of Wu get it from?

Was this token still on him during the battle of Bazipo?

Is the blood on it General Huoqiu's, or those of the Lirang soldiers, or those warriors who fought bravely like her brother?

Just thinking about this, Gu Qinghe felt as if the token weighed a thousand pounds.

Although her previous intention towards Princess Wu was mutually beneficial, now there was genuine gratitude in Gu Qinghe's eyes as she looked at her.

Princess Wu glared at him. "Don't look at me like that. I just hate owing favors to others. What's more, if you can really bring him down, it will be a great pleasure for me. I'm just helping myself."

Gu Qinghe smiled, "Then I wish the princess can get what she wants soon."

She was also looking forward to the day when the King of Wu would pay the price. Then she would definitely bring a pot of wine to her father's grave and have a good drink with him.

And her brother, who doesn't even deserve a tombstone, must be proud of her.

After traveling for several days, the journey was smooth as Shao Wei had expected.

When they arrived in the capital, the Qi family had already learned the news in advance and were waiting outside the city gate, led by Qi Mingyue, who was dressed in white.

This was the first time Gu Qinghe met his boss, whom he had only heard of.

It turned out that the boss who was praised every day by the owner of the Beijing Medical Hall was such a young man.

After checking on Princess Wu's condition, Qi Mingyue walked towards Gu Qinghe, her peach blossom eyes sparkling, "You've been exhausted from the long journey, Doctor Gu, why don't you go to the mansion and take a rest? How about we prepare some food to fill your stomach?"

Gu Qinghe shook his head and glanced at Lan Yu, who was obviously tired and his eyes were a little blurry. "Let's do it another day. I'm really exhausted after such a long journey. Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Qi."

Qi Mingyue still smiled brightly, "In that case, Qi will not force you to do so. I will come to your house in person to thank you another day."
