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

Chapter 206: I Know What You Are Afraid of

The only way was for her to go to Huxiang in person to see what the poisonous insect looked like and how poisonous it was.

Lu Zhiyao thought for a moment, "It has been many years since I went to Huxiang. At that time, the ruler of Huxiang had not yet ascended the throne. Her mother was the previous ruler. She was worried every day and became seriously ill. At that time, Huxiang strictly checked all the outsiders. I was able to enter thanks to my master's name."

"Mother said before that the former Lord Huxiang's illness was a mental illness that could not be cured by medicine."

"That's true," Lu Zhiyao smiled, "Mother's current status is special. If I go out rashly, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for General Shao, especially since we are together, we have already attracted the attention of those people."

"If you insist on going to Huxiang, mother won't stop you." She looked at Qinghe with a smile, as if she saw her high-spirited self back then.

But after the smile, only sadness remains.

She suddenly said, "The current Lord Huxiang owed me a favor in the past. I thought she was a man of her word. Although there is no token, you can ask her if her leg disease has improved after you see her. She will probably help you."

Gu Qinghe nodded. His original uneasiness and undecided mind were now put at ease by Lu Zhiyao's few light words.

"I know what you are afraid of. You are afraid that if you go there and never come back, I will be left alone in this world. I will be so lonely and pitiful, right?"

"No," Gu Qinghe said anxiously, "Mother will not be alone."

Lu Zhiyao laughed again, and the spirit of her youth returned to her. "As a doctor, I have seen too many lives and deaths. When I was a child, there were often people crying and seeking medical treatment in Master's Medicine Valley. Master's medical skills were great, but there were always times when he could not save the patient. I secretly swore at that time that I would work hard to learn Master's medical skills, surpass him, and let these people not have to say goodbye because of illness."

She spread her hands towards Gu Qinghe, "Don't talk about me. You are a very good doctor now, and you must have understood that we are just ordinary people. How can we be so powerful? We can't even save ourselves."

"But mother is not afraid of death. If I only wanted a safe life, I would not have agreed to let your brother join the army. If I wanted to die, even though I lost my memory at that time, according to my personality, I would not live with the King of Wu."

She seemed a little disappointed. "But I survived. Now that I survived, I can't die easily again."

Her gaze shifted to Gu Qinghe, whose eyes were red. Lu Zhiyao's expression softened a lot. Her fingertips touched Gu Qinghe's cheek, and she held her carefully like she did when they were children.

"I heard that you and the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion had some conflicts, and you even went to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Did you know about this?"

Gu Qinghe lowered her eyes, "Mom has never hidden anything from me, right?"

Speaking of this, Lu Zhiyao felt helpless.

In fact, over the years since they picked up Gu Qinghe, she and Chen Fanzhi have been helping Gu Qinghe find his biological parents.

But they regarded Gu Qinghe as a family member, and naturally hoped that her biological parents did not abandon her just because she was a daughter.

Due to various concerns, the Prime Minister's Mansion announced to the public that the baby girl born to the Prime Minister's wife had died. In addition, the jade pendant that fell on her when she picked up Gu Qinghe was engraved with the word "Gu", so she didn't even think of Prime Minister Li.

As a result, she missed many years. Later, when she heard the rumors about the Prime Minister's wife, she indeed got the truth when she went to inquire. She even confirmed that the Prime Minister and his wife must be Gu Qinghe's biological parents.

But she and Chen Fanzhi had been observing in the capital for several days. After being shocked by the prime minister's wife's domineering style, they were also shocked by Li Qiulian's reckless behavior.

Gu Qinghe was raised by her and Chen Fanzhi. The child was a mischievous little kid. If she really returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, whether she was happy or not was not a big deal. The first thing Lu Zhiyao was worried about was that she would be killed by this Miss Li.

After much thought, Lu Zhiyao decided to be selfish and keep the news secret for the time being, waiting for a suitable opportunity to tell Gu Qinghe later.

But she never waited for the right opportunity, or perhaps it was the reluctance in her heart that held her back. Until something happened to the Chen family, she did not have time to tell Gu Qinghe the news.

If I had known this earlier, I would have told her at that time. Perhaps she wouldn't have to run around and worry about the Chen family's affairs like this.

Lu Zhiyao said softly: "In fact, the Prime Minister's wife loves her daughter very much. If she saw you, she would not treat you any worse than I do."

Gu Qinghe shook her head gently. "My daughter knows that no matter how good the Prime Minister's Mansion is, it is not my home. My home is in Liangtuo. One day I will go back."

From the moment the Prime Minister's wife was willing to kill innocent lives in order to achieve her goal with Li Qiulian and frame her, it was destined that the Prime Minister's Mansion and Gu Qinghe would never be on the same side.

After all, she has grown up. Lu Zhiyao doesn't know whether the bitterness in her heart is relief or emotion.

But she just nodded and said, "It's up to you to decide. Mother won't interfere."

Before going to bed, Lu Zhiyao held Gu Qinghe's arm and said, "Sleep with mother tonight."

"it is good."

Gu Qinghe snuggled in her mother's arms. The warm fragrance was the taste of her childhood. Her happiness was obvious. When she was a child, she remembered that she liked to sleep next to Lu Zhiyao at first.

But Chen Fanzhi usually indulged her, but he was very persistent on this matter, implementing a reward policy and talking about all kinds of truths.

For example, she will affect her parents' sleep, or she has grown up and needs independence.

When she first started sleeping alone, Chen Fanzhi would bring her some small toys when he came back every day.

The mother and daughter stayed up almost all night. Lu Zhiyao told her about the rules in Huxiang and some customs of their country that needed to be followed when going to Huxiang.

Hu Xiang had a bad temper, but he was tolerant of his own people and would not allow them to use poisonous insects to harm his own people.

But it’s not the same for outsiders. If they disagree with something, they will release poisonous insects to sting people.

"However, Huxiang still values ​​doctors. Just say that you are a disciple of the doctor in Yaogu back then. No one should embarrass you. But remember, don't act rashly in front of Huxiang."

Gu Qinghe smiled, "Don't worry, mother. I'm not going directly to Huxiang. You still remember the Third Prince of Yun State, Lan Yu, right? I helped him before, and the Crown Prince of Yun State owes me a favor. Although it's not good to act this way, I can't care about that at this moment."

"I previously discussed with Shao Wei that we should go to Yun State first. Lan Yu's uncle is the husband of a prince in Huxiang State. It shouldn't be that complicated to go to Huxiang through him."
