He's just a stand-in

Gu Lichuan didn't show much when he heard Liu Huaiqiu's words.

He had expected this situation a long time ago, and now his only thought is to let Liu Huaiqiu leave quickly.

After all, if the news of his infection with the plague spread to the court, Changbei County would basically be abandoned.

Although the gate of the city has been sealed long ago, after all, he is still managing it now. If the imperial court takes over, Liu Huaiqiu really won't want to go out.

"Has the person who grabbed the medicine not come back yet?" Gu Lichuan asked urgently.

One of the doctors thought that Gu Lichuan wanted to test the medicine as soon as possible, so he comforted him: "It will be soon, my lord, don't worry, after all, some medicines are precious, and some pharmacies may not have them, so go to a few pharmacies and ask."

As soon as the doctor's words fell to the ground, the person who grabbed the medicine ran back panting.

"Here we come." Seeing the medicine in the man's hand, the doctor excitedly took the medicine from the servant's hand and began to brew it.

An hour later, the medicine was finally brewed, and the black soup was brought to Gu Lichuan.

Because they are all boiled with poison, no one dares to get close to them, for fear that they will accidentally inhale the poison and die.

Only Liu Huaiqiu wanted to fetch the decoction from the doctor and feed it to Gu Lichuan.

The doctor turned his body to avoid Liu Huaiqiu's hand, "Your Imperial Envoy, it's better not to touch it, it's poisonous, even if this medicine can cure the prince's illness, you, a healthy person, still can't touch it."

"What's more, we still don't know if this medicine is effective."

Hearing what the doctor said, Gu Lichuan immediately lowered his face and threatened Liu Huaiqiu, "Qiuqiu, don't touch it. If you dare to touch it, I will let Xuanying send you away right now."

Although Gu Lichuan was infected with the plague and his words were weak, his momentum did not decrease at all.

Now that Gu Lichuan has become like this, Liu Huaiqiu has no intention of talking back to Gu Lichuan.

And if Gu Lichuan drank the medicine and it was effective, he still had to take care of Gu Lichuan, even if he followed Gu Lichuan's wishes, he didn't go forward to touch the bowl of medicine.

Gu Lichuan said: "Give it to me directly."

The doctor is a little hesitant. After all, the person in front of him is the prince, the emperor's own son. If this bowl of medicine really doesn't work...

"My lord, you know, this medicine..."

"The king knows the consequences. Can you stop talking about it? If the king dies, he will die. Anyway, he will die sooner or later if he gets infected with this thing. If he doesn't die, it will be considered a blessing for the king."

"The only thing I regret now is that I failed to save the people in Changbei from the sea of ​​suffering. If they die, they deserve it."

The county magistrate suddenly said: "My lord, don't say that. I believe that the people in Changbei can see clearly what the lord has done since he came from the capital."

"If it really doesn't work, it can only mean that the people in Changbei don't have this blessing."

"Since ancient times, fortune and misfortune depend on each other. I feel that this medicine may be effective, and the prince can return to Beijing safely."

Gu Lichuan smiled, "Okay, since your lord has said so, then this king will believe your lord's words. If this king can return to Beijing safely, the people of Limin in Changbei will also be safe."

After finishing speaking, Gu Lichuan took the decoction from the doctor's hand and poured it down without blinking.

Liu Huaiqiu has been standing on the side quietly listening to Gu Lichuan talking with everyone.

It wasn't until he watched Gu Lichuan drink the last drop of medicine in the bowl that he took the medicine bowl without saying a word, and brought another glass of water to Gu Lichuan to dispense the medicine.

He approached Gu Lichuan and asked, "How is it? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"What happened to your body?"

As for the fact that Gu Lichuan didn't discuss his last words with him, he didn't care because he believed that Gu Lichuan would not die.

Would such a majestic prince die in such a remote place?

How can it be?

Who will believe it?

If Gu Lichuan said his last words to him, he would really look down on Gu Lichuan.

Gu Lichuan finished drinking the water, and glanced at the few people in the room who were anxiously waiting for the result without winking.

The county magistrate was the first to receive Gu Lichuan's message, and quickly said, "My lord has already finished drinking the medicine, it's impossible for the result to come out so quickly."

"Let's go out first and let the prince have a good rest."

The doctor also agreed with the county magistrate's words, "That's right, even if it works, it won't be so fast. It's useless for us to surround here. If it doesn't work, we still have to find a way to detoxify the prince. Although it may not be effective, but More than nothing."

After finishing speaking, several people retreated, only Liu Huaiqiu remained.

"Qiuqiu, wait until I finish speaking before going out." Gu Lichuan wanted to grab Liu Huaiqiu's hand, but he was afraid that he would infect Liu Huaiqiu, so his outstretched hand could only tightly grasp the quilt.

Seeing Gu Lichuan's movements, Liu Huaiqiu took the initiative to grab Gu Lichuan's hand, not letting Gu Lichuan break free, "Don't worry, you can say whatever you want, I won't go out."

"But you can't say your last words to me, you won't die, if you say your last words to me, I will hate you forever."

Gu Lichuan smiled, "It's not a last word."

What he wants to say is indeed not the last words, but what he said from the bottom of his heart.

After all, he was going to die, after much deliberation, he decided to tell Liu Huaiqiu his feelings.

In this way, there will be no regrets anyway.

Liu Huaiqiu looked at Gu Lichuan, and unconsciously became gentle, "Since it's not a last word, then say it, I'll listen to whatever you say."

"I...cough cough" Probably the effect of the medicine had taken effect, Gu Lichuan suddenly coughed violently as soon as he opened his mouth, and his body began to become hot and cold.

The calm Liu Huaiqiu suddenly panicked, "What's the matter? What's the matter? Don't worry, I'm here, take your time."

"It's okay, it's going to be okay."

Liu Huaiqiu kept repeating this sentence, not knowing whether he was comforting Gu Lichuan or himself.

Gu Lichuan coughed for a long time, his face flushed, and then he gradually stopped.

However, the fever continued.

It took only a short while to drink the medicine, and the reaction was so great.

Looks like it really is poison.

If you don't say it now, it may be too late.

Gu Lichuan grabbed Liu Huaiqiu's hand, and said everything without thinking about it.

"Qiuqiu, I like you, no matter what you think of me, I still like you."

"I don't plan anything, I just hope that after I leave, that person can treat you well, and you don't trust others too much, what others say may not be all right, even the person who treated you sincerely before, sooner or later Will change their minds for the sake of profit."

"Remember to be extra careful."

"Now you go with Xuanying immediately. I will let Xuanying go out. You must return to the capital safely and survive safely."

Gu Lichuan said so many words in a row, he exhausted all his energy.

As soon as he finished speaking, he spit out a mouthful of black blood and passed out.

And Liu Huaiqiu's eyes were red when Gu Lichuan said those words.

Tears don't fall down like big ones like money.

"Gu Lichuan, wake up, I told you it's fine, you'll be fine."

"I don't want to listen to your last words, I don't want to, you wake me up."

"If you die, I will definitely not return to the capital safely. I don't want anyone else, I just want you."

Liu Huaiqiu's cry was heard outside the door, the magistrate and the doctor rushed in after hearing it.

"What's the matter? What happened? My lord, what is this?"

When Liu Huaiqiu saw the doctor, it was like seeing a savior. He grabbed the doctor's clothes and begged the doctor to save Gu Lichuan, ""Doctor, you save him, he won't die. "

"He is the prince, the prince who is feared by so many people, how could he die like this."

The county magistrate supported Liu Huaiqiu to comfort him, "Sir, please don't get excited, let the doctor see how the prince is doing, okay?"

"It may not be that the prince just spit out those toxins, the prince himself is fine."

The county magistrate also saw a pool of black blood on the ground.

The fear in his heart is no less than Liu Huaiqiu's, and he also hopes that Gu Lichuan is fine.

If something happened to Gu Lichuan, it would prove that the whole of Changbei was hopeless.

At this time, the doctor was not as fearless as before, he went to check on Gu Li Chuan's breath with trembling hands.

When he found that Gu Lichuan was still breathing weakly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's all right, my lord is all right, he's all right now, it's described in ancient books like this, after drinking the medicine, he will vomit blood and pass out, as long as he still breathes, he won't die."

"It's just that the blood vomited by the prince is black. This is different from the book, but it shouldn't be a serious problem. What we have to do now is to detoxify. As long as the poison is removed, the prince should be able to wake up."

The doctor walked out excitedly.

Liu Huaiqiu stopped the doctor belatedly, "Did you just say that Gu Lichuan is fine?"

"That means, Gu Lichuan won't die, right?"

Even though the doctor had said it just now, Liu Huaiqiu was eager to get another confirmed result.

The moment Gu Lichuan fainted, Liu Huaiqiu felt that his whole world had collapsed.

His heart had never hurt so much.

Even when he heard that King Kang was taking a concubine, he didn't feel so uncomfortable.

He didn't know what was wrong with him either.

He just didn't want Gu Lichuan to die, and he didn't want Gu Lichuan to leave him.

The county magistrate was also very excited, "Does this prove that the people in Changbei County are saved? Do I no longer have to watch those corpses being burned?"

"Yes, yes, both. If the prince is fine tonight, then it will be all. Don't drag me any more. I'm going to get the antidote. You should give the prince water and try to detoxify first." The doctor pushed away the county magistrate and Liu Huaiqiu and ran out.

And Liu Huaiqiu who reacted came forward to pour water on Gu Lichuan.

Gu Lichuan kept his mouth closed, he couldn't keep feeding the water, even if he fed a spoonful, more than half of the spoonful overflowed.

Seeing this situation, Liu Huaiqiu didn't even think about it, took a big sip of water, lifted Gu Lichuan's jaw, and wanted to feed Gu Lichuan mouth to mouth.

The county magistrate blushed and said awkwardly: "My lord, well, the prince doesn't know what's going on now. If you feed him like this, I'm afraid... it may be infected to you."

Liu Huaiqiu heard about it and explained: "It's okay, I don't care."

Liu Huaiqiu really didn't care.

He believed that Gu Lichuan was fine, if something happened to Gu Lichuan, he might not want to live in this world anymore.

It seems that without Gu Lichuan, the world seems so meaningless.

After Liu Huaiqiu finished speaking, he fed it mouth to mouth.
