Super Beast Taming System, Help Me Become a Female Warrior
Chapter 236 The Truth about the Illness
The royal palace of Damon Kingdom feels a bit like the ancient palace of Dragon Kingdom.
The servant took Gu Xiaoyue to the king's bedroom, and she didn't look away on the way.
I have also learned some etiquette from Damon, so one has to be more careful in the palace.
The facilities here are not very luxurious, one reason is because of the level of development of Damon Kingdom, and the other is that the old king’s character is probably not violent.
Gu Xiaoyue also heard Bai Rongxuan talk about how many talents had been lost due to the economic situation in Damon Country.
They left their homes and went to developed countries such as Longguo, Lijianguo and Yanyangguo to make money.
This also resulted in Damon's overall economy being inferior to that of developed countries. Also, the king was old and sometimes couldn't think clearly, and he missed many good opportunities.
While thinking, Gu Xiaoyue arrived at the door of the old king's bedroom.
The servant went to inform, and Manager Shi immediately came to the door to meet her.
Perhaps when Manager Shi heard King Yi call Gu Xiaoyue Ms. Gu, he thought she was an older healing beastmaster.
I didn't expect that she was just a girl of twenty years old.
Manager Shi pushed his glasses, his eyes revealing a hint of disappointment and contempt.
He nodded to the servants, indicating that they could go down, and then spoke to Gu Xiaoyue.
"Mr. Gu, right? Come with me."
Gu Xiaoyue followed him obediently and came to the king's bed.
The old king is over 70 years old. He has no energy due to illness. His eye sockets are deeply sunken and he has huge dark circles under his eyes.
I think not only is my daily life inconvenient, but my body also hurts when I sleep and I can't sleep well.
Sick people should avoid overwork. Thanks to his sons and grandsons, they were able to share more of the affairs of Damon with him, otherwise he might not have survived until now.
"Um?--"
The old king Bai Yukang asked doubtfully, "Is this Mr. Gu?"
Obviously, he had only heard of Mr. Gu's name and had not thought about Gu Xiaoyue's identity.
Manager Shi quickly replied, "It was Prince Yi who personally sent it to the car, I'm afraid it's correct—"
Although he said this, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Bai Yukang let out a muffled groan, and Gu Xiaoyue immediately knelt on one knee and saluted him.
Now that I have entered the palace, I cannot say that I am incapable of doing it. I can only try it despite myself, hoping that the hydrotherapy can play a role.
Gu Xiaoyue knew nothing about medical skills. Before, she had always used Xiaolan's hydrotherapy to treat external injuries or detoxify and treat burns for pets.
She wasn't entirely sure if the old king had a serious illness, but she could temporarily relieve the pain.
"I, your humble servant Gu Li, heard that His Majesty the King was suffering from illness, so I came to help His Majesty with his urgent need!"
"Well, come on—"
Bai Yukang didn't seem to have much hope either, and sighed barely audibly.
Gu Xiaoyue took a look at Butler Shi and several maids serving the king, gritted her teeth and said - let's fight!
She stretched out her right hand, and a dark blue water ball the size of a tennis ball gradually condensed in her palm.
Gu Xiaoyue's mind moved, and the water ball immediately turned into countless fine water lines and began to fly around Bai Yukang.
After about half an hour, the water line flew back to Xiaoyue's palm and condensed into a water ball again.
Unlike the previous dark blue color, it turned into deep red or even a little black.
This is--
Symptoms of poisoning!
It turns out that the king was bedridden because someone poisoned him!
Bai Yukang groaned again, but unlike the previous groan which was due to suppressed pain, this groan actually contained a hint of lightness.
But Manager Shi didn't seem to hear it, so he asked anxiously.
"Your Majesty, is it more painful? Someone, come and capture this quack doctor for me!"
As soon as Manager Shi finished speaking, several guards suddenly rushed in, each of them strong and sturdy.
They surrounded Gu Xiaoyue with weapons in hand.
Gu Xiaoyue's eyes swept around, her right hand tilted slightly, and the water ball fell to the ground with a plop.
"Your Majesty the King hasn't spoken yet, but a steward has already given orders on your behalf?"
A cold light flashed in Gu Xiaoyue's eyes, and her fierce aura frightened everyone so that they did not act rashly.
Seeing that the guards did not take any action and let Gu Xiaoyue speak out to refute him, Manager Shi immediately stomped his feet and gave angrily orders.
"Why are you all standing there? Your Majesty is not feeling well. Does that mean my words are useless?!"
Seeing that the guard's sword was about to be placed on Gu Xiaoyue's neck, Bai Yukang on the bed stopped him in a deep voice.
"stop!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yukang slowly stood up and half sat up.
Steward Shi was surprised by his behavior. For the past two months, His Majesty the King had to rely on him and the maids to serve him whenever he stood up or lay down.
"Xiao Shi, you've been with me for so many years, but you're still so impatient!"
There was no criticism in Bai Yukang's tone towards Manager Shi for exceeding his authority, but rather a hint of doting.
He waved his hand, and the guards immediately understood and retreated from the bedroom.
"Mr. Gu Li was frightened. Little Shi may have misunderstood me. Please don't be offended."
Bai Yukang saw Gu Xiaoyue still half-kneeling there, "Hurry up, Xiao Shi, you make arrangements."
"Yes, yes, I will arrange it right away!"
Manager Shi was bending his waist so much that it was almost touching the ground.
He did overstep his authority, but fortunately Bai Yukang did not blame him.
He backed away, and Gu Xiaoyue also stood up and followed Manager Shi.
When I just stood up, my knees were so sore and I staggered and almost fell.
With a flick of her finger, a ping-pong ball-sized water ball turned into a water line and wrapped around her knees.
“Mr. Gu, you will be staying in Zunyi Pavilion these days.
Rest early today and wait for the summons tomorrow!"
Zunyi Pavilion was the residence specially arranged for Bai Yukang to receive treatment, not far from his bedroom.
After Manager Shi gave the instructions, he went back to serve Bai Yukang and didn't even arrange a maid for Gu Xiaoyue.
Of course Gu Xiaoyue knew that he still didn't trust her, and she was happy without a maid.
It's not like she has no hands or feet, can't take care of herself, and is not used to being served.
What's the difference between that and arranging a spy to keep an eye on you?
Bai Yukang himself felt that he was much lighter, had a better appetite and was in better spirits. He even ate a few more bites of dinner.
However, Manager Shi still believed that this was all coincidence and it was not Gu Xiaoyue's credit at all!
But he still kept muttering, "Thanks to Mr. Gu, His Majesty's health has indeed improved a lot!
You will be fully recovered and as energetic as before in no time! "
Manager Shi was choked up as he spoke the last part. His Majesty the King had been bedridden for more than half a year, and he had been taking care of him the whole time.
He watched helplessly as His Majesty went from being full of energy and vigor to gradually becoming thinner and thinner, and even to his current state of being emaciated.
Bai Yukang also seemed to have some hope. Can he really recover completely?
He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, "I still feel tired after sitting for a long time."
He lay down again and soon fell into a deep sleep.
