Super Beast Taming System, Help Me Become a Female Warrior
Chapter 237: Repaying a favor
Prince Duan's Mansion - Secret Chamber
Prince Duan Bai Jinchen slapped Jiang Mengfei hard on the face, so hard that his scar was almost crooked by two points.
"How did you promise this king?!"
Bai Jinchen narrowed his eyes, feeling extremely angry.
He stared at Jiang Mengfei's face, narrowed his eyes, and after a while he suddenly sneered.
"I understand. You don't want the lives of your wife and daughter anymore. You want me to kill them! Just say it directly. Why go around in such a big circle?"
Bai Jinchen picked up the handkerchief and carefully wiped the right hand that had just hit Jiang Mengfei.
"No, no, Your Highness Prince Duan!"
When he mentioned his wife and daughter, he immediately knelt on his knees in fear, with almost his entire body pressed to the ground.
"That Gu's fighting ability is very high. I only managed to escape after she broke one of my arms! I really didn't expect that she is also a high-level healer!
Please spare my life, my lord, and don't vent your anger on my wife and children!"
"Humph!"
Bai Jinchen threw the handkerchief fiercely on the ground, "I originally thought that if I sent her to the palace for my father's treatment, she would fail and implicate King Yi, and my father's body would not be able to withstand too much torment.
A good thing that could kill three birds with one stone, but it was missed in the end!"
Bai Jinchen planned to send Gu Xiaoyue to the palace to treat the old man, but she should be thrown out after a while and then charged with deceiving the emperor. King Yi should also be stripped of his power and punished.
I didn't expect that the old guy's health has improved!
Bai Jinchen looked at Jiang Mengfei lying on the ground, and was so angry that he kicked him hard on the shoulder, kicking him back two or three meters!
"If he hadn't signed his will yet, and the power of King Rui and King Yi was greater than mine, how could I still be hanging on to that old man's life!"
Bai Jinchen was so angry that his teeth were itching. What he was more worried about was that Gu Li really cured the old immortal!
If that happens, all his secret plans will be destroyed!
Where on earth did this Gu Li come from?
"A sneeze!——"
Gu Xiaoyue, who was in Zunyi Pavilion, suddenly sneezed!
The weather in Damon Kyoto is getting colder, unlike Hechuan where it is spring all year round.
Gu Xiaoyue was wearing thin clothes, so she took out a sweatshirt from the Beast Taming Space and put it on.
She didn't think of using a pseudonym at first, but later when she determined that she would also be involved in Bai Meng's cause and effect, she thought of a pseudonym.
There was no need to ask about his origins when he lived with Bai Meng on the grassland. Later, he was taken back to Kyoto by Bai Jinyi, and not many people asked about his origins.
It was not until a few days ago when she needed to register a birthday gift for Bai Jinyi that she made up a name.
Gu Xiaoyue rubbed her sore nose.
Bai Yukang’s poisoning did not happen overnight, it probably happened a long time ago.
The dose of poison was so small that even the doctors of Damon Kingdom did not notice it.
No, it should be that this poison will only cause Bai Yukang's organs to gradually fail, but various tests will not detect any toxic reaction.
Moreover, this poison would not only harm the king's body, but also take his life - only a prince who wants to succeed the throne would have the motive and opportunity!
I'm afraid Bai Yukang hadn't made a will yet, so the poison was administered little by little to create the illusion that he was old and had organ failure.
The day he makes his will will be the day he dies!
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoyue crawled into bed.
According to the information she had checked before, Bai Yukang still had at least one year to live.
The poison had penetrated deep into his bone marrow and internal organs, and Bai Yukang was over 70 years old and his metabolism was very slow.
Even if Gu Xiaoyue used hydrotherapy on him continuously, it would be impossible to completely detoxify him.
Just keep him hanging - you can give it a try!
The next morning, there were loud knocks on Gu Xiaoyue's door.
"Mr. Gu Li, are you up yet? It's already past time for you to go and treat His Majesty the King!"
"Uh-oh!"
Gu Xiaoyue got up in a daze. It was cold and she didn't sleep well.
Her reply was heard outside, and several maids came in one after another, carrying water for her to wash and breakfast.
Gu Xiaoyue let them help her wash and have breakfast. She felt more energetic before going to Bai Yukang's bedroom.
As usual, she knelt on one knee and saluted Bai Yukang.
"Someone, please take a seat!"
Bai Yukang was in much better spirits than when he first met her yesterday, and he was willing to believe that Gu Xiaoyue was really capable.
High-end talents should be treated with courtesy. If she can really cure me, she will be my lifesaver!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Gu Xiaoyue was not pretentious. She sat steadily on the chair brought by the maid and began to perform hydrotherapy on Bai Yukang.
The effect of the hydrotherapy that day was even more obvious. Not only was Bai Yukang able to sit up by himself, he even had the energy to handle some government affairs!
On the third day, when Gu Xiaoyue went to treat Bai Yukang again, she caught a glimpse of light in Bai Yukang's increasingly excited expression.
She couldn't help but feel a little nervous. She thought that she was innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure. Could it be that her pet was being targeted again?
As time went by, Gu Xiaoyue had been treating Bai Yukang in the palace for ten days, and his physical condition gradually improved.
Although he cannot ride a horse at a gallop, he is no different from an ordinary 70-year-old man.
"Your Majesty, today's treatment is over. Your physical condition has basically stabilized. If I continue the treatment, there will be no further progress."
Gu Xiaoyue reported respectfully, hoping that Bai Yukang would release her from the palace.
"Mr. Gu has done a great job in treating me. I will reward you accordingly. What reward do you want?"
Bai Yukang's tone was still a little weak, and he couldn't stand or walk for a long time.
Gu Xiaoyue rolled her eyes and replied.
“I was able to become King Yi’s retainer thanks to the Third Young Master who rescued me from the brink of death in the wild.
The third son was extremely talented, but because of his mother's humble status, King Yi was unable to arrange a public office for him.
I, your humble servant, am presumptuous and would like to ask for a sinecure for the Third Young Master to repay him for saving my life!"
Bai Yukang and Manager Shi looked at each other and seemed a little disappointed.
Manager Shi recorded the arrangement of a sinecure for Bai Meng in advance, and then asked Gu Xiaoyue in a guiding tone.
"Mr. Gu Li, do you have any other needs? You can mention them all at once!"
Gu Xiaoyue immediately became more defensive in her heart, but she still pretended to be simple and innocent on the surface.
"I work in Prince Yi's palace. I have food and drink, and I am provided with accommodation. I really don't have any other needs."
Bai Yukang coughed lightly as a tactic and gave a wink to Manager Shi.
Manager Shi immediately understood and said to Gu Xiaoyue with his head raised.
"Mr. Gu, you also know that it's good to work in Prince Yi's mansion. His Majesty and Prince Yi are good to you. Shouldn't you repay them?"
Manager Shi raised his eyebrows, met Gu Xiaoyue's innocent gaze, and continued.
"I think your healing skills are because you have a top-notch healing pet. Why don't you hand it over to thank me?"
Gu Xiaoyue sneered in her heart, knowing that these bad guys were not good at holding their farts!
It was really a favor, and Bai Meng had done her a favor. She had already found a job for him to repay him.
What did he owe Bai Yukang and Bai Jinyi?
A sinecure and the favor she gave Bai Yukang in saving his life, no matter how you look at it, this damn old man is taking advantage!
He actually still cares about her pet!
