Gullit's enteric fever had begun to improve. When he woke up, he no longer complained and was no longer shivering.

"You are already 70% to 80% recovered. Shouldn't you keep your promise and let me go?" After Wei Bingyan carefully took Gulit's pulse, she brought up what they had agreed to before.

"Li Yuyan didn't give you two cities in exchange for your return. You should continue to stay here." Gulit's voice still sounded a little weak. He glanced at Wei Bingyan and completely forgot what he had promised Wei Bingyan.

Wei Bingyan said angrily, "You clearly nodded and promised that you would let me go back as long as I could completely cure you."

"It wasn't you who cured me. It was the medicine Matilda sent that cured me," said Gulit.

"Are all Rongdi people so fickle?" Wei Bingyan asked mockingly.

Gulit said coldly: "Li Yuyan has already refused to bring you back, why are you going back? Maybe he has remarried someone else and left you as his wife."

Asking Li Yuyan to exchange two cities for her back, that's impossible? Even if Li Yuyan is willing, will His Majesty agree? Wei Bingyan knew that Li Yuyan was not easy to deal with, so she didn't feel bad deep down in her heart. She was only angry at Gulit's shamelessness.

"I really should have killed you back then." Wei Bingyan said in annoyance. She should have killed him directly when she knocked him unconscious that day.

These words reminded Gullit that they still had an old account to settle.

Gulit touched the scar on his forehead, his eyes were ferocious and violent, as if he wanted to devour someone, he stretched out his hand to strangle her neck.

Wei Bingyan took a quick step back.

Gulit nearly fell off the bed. Although his enteritis had recovered, he was still too weak to have the strength to catch Wei Bingyan.

The Rongdi maid who was serving on the side took a look, came over and gently held Gulit's arm, then turned around and scolded Wei Bingyan loudly.

Wei Bingyan had no idea what she was talking about and just thought it was a cute fly buzzing.

Gulit asked the maid to capture Wei Bingyan.

The maidservant had a much taller figure than the women in the Tang Dynasty and was very strong. She easily pulled Wei Bingyan over.

"Since you know medical skills, I won't kill you. How about you come back to Rongdi with me and be my woman?" Gulit held Wei Bingyan's mouth tightly and asked in a tone of pity and charity.

Wei Bingyan smiled grimly, "You'd better kill me."

Gulit's eyes turned cold, "You don't want to? Am I not as good as Li Yuyan?"

"You are Li Yuyan's defeated general." Wei Bingyan said.

These words were a huge humiliation for Gullit in his life. His face suddenly changed and he picked up the dagger beside him to kill Wei Bingyan.

Jin Leimin walked in at this time and intercepted Gullit's action in time.

"Grand Prince." Jin Leimin glanced at Wei Bingyan and bowed respectfully to Gulit. "The herbs sent by the Grand Princess are only enough for the pawns to use freely. What should the civilians in the city do?"

"These Tang Dynasty dogs are not our Rongdi people. We have no right to care about their life or death." The speaker was Matilda who came in from outside. She looked at Wei Bingyan earnestly and sat down next to Gulit.

Wei Bingyan, who was insulted, just looked at Matilda mercilessly.

Jin Leimin did not respond to Matilda, he just listened to Gulit.

"How many people in the city are still infected with enteric fever?" asked Gulit.

"I estimate there are still thirty people." Jin Leimin said.

Gulit looked at Wei Bingyan and said, "It burned."

Wei Bingyan was so angry that she couldn't help but open her mouth, "You also had enteric fever before, why didn't you burn yourself to death?"

"Drag this woman out and kill her." Matilda ordered Jin Leimin. She always felt that this hostage was a threat. Although she was not very good-looking, she could actually attract Gulit's attention. Since she went in until today, Gulit had looked at Wei Bingyan more than ten times.

What's so good about it? Is she as pretty as she is?

"Matilda, you go first." Gulit frowned and spoke impatiently.

Matilda beat her chest unhappily, "Gulit, are you really attracted to such an ugly girl?"

"Jin Leimin and I were talking about serious matters." Gulit said.

"Is such a woman also doing serious things? How can she be here?" Matilda pointed at Wei Bingyan and asked, her eyes looking at Wei Bingyan were full of envy, jealousy and resentment.

Wei Bingyan didn't understand what they were saying, but she could see clearly the look in Matilda's eyes. She felt that she was filled with hatred. Could it be that Matilda was blind? Could she seduce Gulit like this? Didn't she see that Gulit was going to kill her?

Gulit put on a face, "Matilda!"

Matilda was greatly surprised, thinking that Gullett was a proud and fierce man. She relied on her immediate delivery of herbs and was so proud that she almost forgot her previous hatred and love for Gullett.

"I...I'll leave first." Matilda hung her head and said in panic.

Gulit and Jin Leimin continued to discuss how to deal with the civilians in the city who were infected with the cold. They basically didn't want Wei Bingyan to join in the discussion and blame them. Gulit and Jin Leimin spoke in Rongdi language.

Wei Bingyan bit her lip, knowing that there was no way Gullit would let her go back, so she turned around and left.

As soon as they left Gulit's place, two Rongdi people followed closely behind Wei Bingyan. They were the guards that Gulit had ordered to watch over her.

This continued until they entered a spacious courtyard filled with Rongdi people, and the two outstanding talents did not continue to follow.

Not long after she returned to the house, Xiaoxue brought her dinner.

"Have you found out how Gulit will deal with these poor patients with enteric fever in the city?" Xiaoxue asked nervously. Yuexue escaped the disaster last time and was not burned to death by the high temperature, but this time it might not be the case.

Wei Bingyan didn't know what to say, she just looked at Xiaoxue with a sour look, "These herbs are only enough for the Rongdi people..."

Did they really want to burn people to death? Xiaoxue's face turned slightly pale.

"If Li Yuyan knew that I was here, he would have come already and would save these people." Wei Bingyan knew Li Yuyan best, so she knew very well what Li Yuyan would do if he knew her whereabouts.

If he had already come to Tugou City, how could he have watched Gulit burn civilians to death at high temperatures?
