Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

He is no longer young, and even his back is not as straight as before.

It has been twenty-one years, and he is only forty-nine years old this year. Not only has he never married, but he also looks very old.

He was once a famous talented young man in Daliang, a man of both literary and martial talents, and many girls dreamed of marrying him.

Just because of what she said: "Jiang Lin, I ask you to keep him safe!"

He went to Northern Jin without hesitation, and stayed there for twenty-one years, wasting his youth.

She whispered to Aunt Ning Ru beside her.

Aunt Ning Ru nodded and went to Queen Shu's storehouse, where there was a thousand-year-old ginseng that the queen had treasured for many years.

Liang Tianyou then told them in detail what had happened along the way and their plans.

Cui Jingyu also told him about how Gu Xingyan forced Qiao Shun to take out the medicine that could replenish the body's energy in the carriage.

Empress Shu, Gu Xingcheng and others were horrified when they heard this. The Chen mother and son were too vicious and too much. If they didn't take revenge, they would be unworthy of being human!

And after hearing that Xiao Jiuer had taken medicine that was extremely harmful to the body in order to enter the palace to save them, he felt even more distressed.

Inside the hall, Gu Xingyan's chest was full of needles. Qiao Shun was ruthless in his treatment. He was always ruthless towards disobedient patients.

Beads of cold sweat broke out on Gu Xingyan's forehead.

Half an hour later, after two rounds of acupuncture, Qiao Shun finally breathed a sigh of relief. After bandaging the wound, he asked the eunuch to wipe his body, changed into clean clothes, and then left the hall.

As soon as the door opened, everyone looked at him.

Gu Xingcheng had already taken a step forward, wanting to ask, but not daring to.

Although Empress Shu stood there dignifiedly, only she herself knew how scared she was with her fingers twisted together.

Being stared at by such a row of people, Qiao Shun raised his beard and said, "Don't worry, you won't die."

Everyone looked happy.

"But for the next few days, he must stay in bed and have a good rest. Even peeing in bed is necessary. He didn't listen to the old man and took that kind of fierce medicine. He even dared to wait more than half an hour to come to me. Humph, I didn't kill him with one shot, which was a good thing for him."

Empress Shu and Gu Xingcheng both bowed to him and said, "Thank you, Doctor Qiao. I am sorry for your trouble."

Qiao Shun snorted twice.

Gu Xingcheng said hurriedly, "I have ordered people to prepare wine, food and a place to rest. Doctor Qiao, please have your meal first and then go to rest. Don't worry, I will personally keep an eye on Xiao Jiuer and will never let him get out of bed."

Qiao Shun looked at Gu Xingcheng and said, "Are you the Crown Prince of Daliang, Gu Xingcheng?"

"Yes, I am Gu Xingcheng."

Qiao Shun glanced at Cui Jingyu, who had been sleeping with his eyes closed against the pillar since he came out. "Cui Wanku said that you are weak, and I was tricked into Daliang by him after I was knocked unconscious. Now that I am here, I should at least check your health first."

Gu Xingcheng hurriedly said, "Dr. Qiao has worked hard all the way, you should go and rest first, my illness will be fine in two days."

"Well." Qiao Shun stretched his waist, arms and legs. He, an old man with a white beard, was really exhausted after a day's work. Seeing that Gu Xingcheng didn't look like he was about to die, he took his granddaughter and followed the palace servants to rest.

He whispered to the servants around him, "Send someone to protect Doctor Qiao and his granddaughter."

Gu Xingcheng and Queen Shu entered the palace and saw Xiaojiu lying on the couch with a pale face. They felt extremely distressed.

Seeing them come in, Gu Xingyan forced himself to sit up. Gu Xingcheng took two quick steps and pushed him back onto the bed, angrily saying, "I think you are going to die! What did you tell me two hours ago? You said you were not injured at all. What are you doing now? Are you lying to even your brother?"

As he spoke, his eyes turned red.

Gu Xingyan didn't dare to answer. He looked at his mother eagerly, asking her to at least say a few good words for him in front of his brother.

Empress Shu turned her face away and didn't want to speak for him.

"Brother, I'm fine."

"It's okay, it's okay. You told me it was okay! Now, I think you really don't want to live anymore. You even dare to take such a strong medicine, and you didn't listen to Doctor Qiao after taking it. If it weren't for him, you would let me, let my mother..."

Gu Xingcheng couldn't go on. For the past twenty years, he had been thinking about his younger brother who was sent away when he was just a tiny baby.

He was only nine years old at that time. After learning literature and martial arts from the Taifu every day, he couldn't wait to come to Kunning Palace to see Xiao Jiuer.

This was the moment of the day he looked forward to most.

Little Jiuer was a fair and tender ball, and looked so cute. He lay beside the cradle and looked at him. His black pupils would also look at him and blow bubbles at him.

But one day, Xiao Jiuer disappeared.

The Queen Mother said that he was living well in another place, so she asked him to take care of himself. When he was able to protect the three of them, she would ask her husband to bring Xiao Jiuer back.

But this wait lasted for a full twenty-one years.

Gu Xingyan held his eldest brother's hand and said, "Brother, I really know I was wrong. I promise I will never hide anything from you again."

"Humph, you still want the future! You are not allowed to go anywhere until your injuries are completely healed. I will personally guard you here and will not leave even a step."

"Mother..." Gu Xingyan looked at Queen Shu.

Empress Shu snorted coldly: "In this matter, mother will listen to your brother."

Gu Xingcheng took a deep breath and said, "Oh, right, I just heard you mention the Colorful Snow Spider. What is that?"

“One medicine.”

Gu Xingcheng stood up immediately: "Is it the important medicine? The Imperial Hospital should have it. I will ask Su Chaoquan to get it immediately."

Su Chaoquan was the eunuch in charge of his Eastern Palace.

Gu Xingyan held his brother's hand and pulled him to sit down. "It's an important medicine, extremely precious. Uncle Ou said that there is only one in our Imperial Hospital. But it's not useful for the poison in my body. It's used to paralyze Concubine Chen and her son. By now, I guess Concubine Chen has already taken the medicine away or destroyed it."

Gu Xingcheng was such a smart man that he immediately ordered loudly: "Come here, go to the Imperial Hospital and get the medicine called Colorful Snow Spider, immediately, right now!"

Someone immediately ran to get the medicine.

In just an incense stick of time, the palace servant came running over, sweating profusely, "Reply to the Queen, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the Imperial Hospital no longer has this medicine. They said that it was used by His Majesty half a year ago."

They looked at each other and it was true.

However, without the emperor's blessing, Concubine Chen's methods were still so shameful.

Someone came in and whispered in Gu Xingcheng's ear: "Your Highness, the Third Prince has entered the palace and went to Concubine Chen's Changchun Palace."

The fish was about to take the bait, and Gu Xingyan said coldly: "Send someone to keep a close eye on it."

"Yes."

Empress Shu was very anxious. Before leaving the East Palace, she had already issued an order: "Come here, pass on my decree to search the entire city for the Colorful Snow Spider. Any store or person who has this medicine will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold in addition to the price of the medicine!"
