Before the nanny finished her words, the young maid standing behind her hurriedly spoke up, "The princess had this condition before, but it was not so serious."

At first glance, this statement seemed to be normal, but for some reason it seemed to suddenly irritate the grandma.

She suddenly went crazy and slapped the maid in the face, grabbed her arm and dragged her out of the door, "You traitor, don't get in the way of our princess here. I think the princess's illness will not be cured in a day if you stay here, get out!"

Perhaps she didn't have much confidence in Gu Qinghe, after all, she was brought here by King Wu. Or maybe she knew in her heart that the princess's illness could not be cured, and she was unwilling to hold back the anger that she had been holding for a long time.

He stood at the door and pointed at the maid and started to curse her. The extent of his indirect criticism was so severe that if the King of Wu was standing here at this moment, he would probably be embarrassed.

After scolding the maid so badly that she dared not enter, the nanny came in panting, her eyes fell on Gu Qinghe, the momentum she had just had dissipated and was replaced by a bit of sadness.

"What benefit did he promise you?"

"Are you talking about the King of Wu?" Gu Qinghe placed his fingertips on the wrist of the Princess of Wu, feeling her weak and extremely disordered pulse.

"What he can give you, our princess may not be unable to give you. You will not gain anything by cooperating with a hypocrite like him. When one day you are no longer useful, he will get rid of you, and your fate will definitely not be good."

"Then what can the princess give me?" Gu Qinghe waved his hands, stopped joking, and looked serious. "What has the princess eaten during this period?"

"The princess's meals are the same as before, nothing special. Moreover, she always uses a silver needle to test the poison before eating her meals."

The maidservant should have gone to find King Wu. It is impossible that King Wu did not have the hand to make the princess sick like this. Gu Qinghe said in short, "It is not the poison that she got now. There must have been something wrong with the princess' body before. She only needs a medicine to make the poison lurking in her body burst out instantly. If some time passes, even the Golden Immortal will be unable to do anything."

Mammy shuddered. "You mean, it can still be treated now, right?"

"Let's not talk about how difficult this poison is to cure. Even if I help the princess cure the poison, can she live in peace from now on?"

Gu Qinghe looked at the nanny's expression and thought that she must have found the right person.

She just remembered it when she saw the nanny scolding the maid. There was indeed a farce in the Prince Wu's mansion in the previous life.

At that time, she happened to be a guest at the Prince of Wu's Palace with Wei Yanzhou.

While Wei Yanzhou was talking to King Wu, she sat aside eating cakes on a plate. Before she finished eating, she was interrupted by a crazy old lady.

The old woman held a hairpin in her hand and looked at the King of Wu with eyes as if she wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

The words he cursed out were even more unbearable to hear.

When the old lady was captured by the guards, she spat blood at the King of Wu, snatched the sword from the guard's hand and slit her throat.

Gu Qinghe did not see the blood splattering scene because Wei Yanzhou covered her eyes in time for fear that she would have a nightmare.

Now, facing this old lady, her face gradually overlapped with that of the old lady who committed suicide.

Her loyalty to Princess Wu was obviously beyond doubt, and the thoughts in Gu Qinghe's mind gradually grew.

Seeing that the nanny was already upset because of her words, Gu Qinghe continued to strike while the iron was hot, "If the person who poisoned the princess is determined to kill her, it will be useless even if the poison is removed today. Maybe the next poison will be more difficult to deal with."

The voice of the maid came from outside. She must have called the King of Wu. The nanny's eyes suddenly burst into some indescribable brilliance, "Help the princess, as long as you have a way, if you can cure the princess, the Qi family will never forget your kindness. I will never let the princess be harmed by a traitor again even if I risk my life."

"Doctor Gu, what's the situation?" The voice of King Wu asked.

Gu Qinghe pursed her lips and glanced at the nanny, "Just follow my instructions later."

The door opened and the King of Wu looked anxious. "How is the princess?"

"It's very bad," Gu Qinghe said, "I've seen patients with the same symptoms as the princess before, and even with treatment, the effect is not very significant. We can only try to alleviate some of the pain and make the patient more comfortable, but it is impossible to cure it completely."

"Bah! You quack, you quack, you just want to curse our princess. What do you mean it can't be cured? How can such a small problem be incurable, you quack!"

The King of Wu quickly had the nanny pulled away. "Doctor Gu, please don't worry about it. This old nanny has been with the princess since she was married to me. They have a very deep relationship. I think she couldn't accept it for a while, so she said such a thing."

After Gu Qinghe said it was fine, King Wu was very sad, "How could this be? The doctor we invited earlier clearly said that the princess's condition was just due to acclimatization."

How could this be? Gu Qinghe looked at the King of Wu coldly as he pretended to be so. He knew better than anyone why the King of Wu's wife had become like this.

Don't think she didn't see the look of relief on King Wu's face the moment she said the disease couldn't be cured.

King Wu raised his hand and wiped his face, seeming to be very melancholy. After a long while, he sighed, "In this case, I hope Doctor Gu can try his best to help the princess relieve some of her pain."

Gu Qinghe wrote a prescription and gave it to King Wu, "Pick the medicine according to the prescription above, and drink it once in the morning and evening every day."

The King of Wu handed the prescription to his servant, gave him a look, and the servant left with the prescription.

He curled his lips towards Shao Wei and Gu Qinghe, "It's getting late today, you two should stay here now, it won't be too late to leave tomorrow."

Shao Wei glanced at Gu Qinghe and obviously followed her advice.

Gu Qinghe shook her head. "Thank you, Your Highness, but it's not necessary. General Shao has something to do in the military camp tomorrow. I'll go in and give the princess an acupuncture injection, and then we'll hurry back."

The King of Wu did not stop her. During the acupuncture, the maid who had just been scolded by the nanny wanted to follow in, but was pushed out by the nanny who had just rushed back.

She wanted to go in and watch to prevent Gu Qinghe from harming their princess, but King Wu waved his hand and the servant who was holding her back let go and let her in.

After the needles were inserted into the acupuncture points, Gu Qinghe lowered her voice and told the nanny, "I can only temporarily seal some of the poison in the princess' body to slow down its spread. The detoxifying herbs are not complete yet. I will find a way to send the medicine to you when it is ready. If you want your princess to live, you need to find a way to get her to leave here. At least, she cannot stay with King Wu."
