Quick Wear: Passerby A's Counterattack Revised Plot

Yuhuan thought for a moment and replied, "Your Highness, it may be that I haven't been back to that place for too long, so my body is out of control and I have caused trouble for Your Highness."

Murong Xue felt strange when she heard this: "I haven't been back for too long. My body is out of control. Where can I go back? Aren't you from Fengnan Country? And what is controlling your body?"

When Yuhuan heard Murongxue's question, she thought that she had never seen Murongxue before, so she asked Murongxue: "Excuse me, young lady, I have never seen this young lady before, who are you?"

When Zhongli Yuan heard this, he answered proudly before Murong Xue could, "She is the princess of the Northern Yue Kingdom and my crown princess."

Yuhuan sat up and tried to get off the bed to greet Murong Xue, saying, "My humble servant is rude. I greet the Crown Princess."

Murong Xue waved her hand: "No need to be polite, if you are not feeling well, just lie down and don't need to be polite!"

Seeing this, Yuhuan did not force the salute. She sat up and thought about Murong Xue's question just now. She replied: "Just now the Crown Princess asked if I was from Fengnan Country. Well, actually I am not from Fengnan Country. I am from the Western Regions. For some reasons, I was forced to come to Fengnan Country. As soon as I arrived in Fengnan Country, I was unfortunately captured and sold to the Crown Prince's Mansion."

"As for why my body is being controlled, it's because someone put a poison on me when I left the Western Regions. I don't have a way to detoxify, so my body is out of control. I may die in the near future," Yuhuan added.

Zhong Liyuan frowned upon hearing this, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He slowly walked to Yuhuan's side and asked, "You were actually poisoned? This is a serious matter, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Yuhuan lowered her head, her voice filled with helplessness and bitterness: "Your Highness, I am new here and I am imprisoned. How can I easily reveal my secrets? Besides, I know only a little about this poison. I only know that it is extremely painful when it attacks, but I don't know how to get rid of it."

Seeing this, Murong Xue felt a surge of sympathy in her heart. She gently pulled Zhong Liyuan's sleeve and said softly, "Zhong Liyuan, since Miss Yuhuan has such a difficult problem, we might as well help her. Although the Western Region Gu technique is mysterious, the world is so big that there is always a solution."

Zhongli Yuan nodded, his eyes firm: "Murong, you are right. I will immediately send people to the Western Regions to find a way to cure the poison. At the same time, I will also ask the imperial physician in the palace to treat you and see if there are other auxiliary methods."

Yuhuan heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, she quickly knelt on the ground, grateful and tearful: "Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Princess, if I can be saved, I will definitely repay you with a gift of grass and a ring to repay you for your kindness!"

Murong Xue reached out and helped Yu Huan up, saying gently, "Just focus on your recovery and let us handle the rest."

When Shi Qi heard their conversation, her face looked strange for a moment. After thinking for a while, she said to Zhongliyuan and Murongxue, "Zhongliyuan, Murongxue, come out with me for a moment. I have something to talk to you alone."

Zhongli Yuan and Murong Xue followed Shi Qi out of Murong Xue's room and came to another room of the inn. Seeing that they all came in, Shi Qi closed the door and put up a ban so that others could not hear their conversation.

Shi Qi turned around, looked at Zhongli Yuan and Murong Xue with a serious expression, and said softly: "I have something to say to you alone. I have a different opinion on the matter of Yuhuan."

Zhongli Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, motioning for her to continue.

"First of all, the Western Region Gu technique is indeed complicated and difficult to understand, but as far as I know, it is rare to have a Gu poison that can control a person's body for such a long time without showing any signs of infection." Shi Qi paused, as if he was organizing his words. "Secondly, Yuhuan's experience sounds too coincidental. She happened to appear when we needed her, and she happened to be poisoned. This makes us doubt the truth behind it."

Murong Xue frowned slightly when she heard this, and asked worriedly: "Shi Qi, what do you mean..."

"I don't doubt Yuhuan's loyalty or her experience, but I'm worried that there may be a conspiracy that we haven't noticed yet." Shi Qi explained, "I suggest that we need to know who cast the poison on her to make sure nothing bad happens."

Zhong Liyuan nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it is always better to be cautious. I will arrange for people to go to the Western Regions, and at the same time strengthen the security in the mansion, just in case."

She took a deep breath, as if she was organizing her thoughts: "I may know some clues about Yuhuan's poison. I once read in an ancient book that there is an extremely rare poison in the Western Regions called 'Soul Lock'. Those who are poisoned by this poison will gradually lose control of their bodies until they become puppets. More importantly, this poison cannot be cured even by the person who poisoned it. It requires a specific person or object to remove it, and the solution is extremely complicated."

Murong Xue frowned upon hearing this: "If it's really as you said, then wouldn't it be even more difficult to find a way to cure the poison?"

Shi Qi nodded, then shook his head: "It is difficult, but not unsolvable. Ancient books also mentioned that there is a hermit Gu master in the Western Regions named 'Yun Yinzi', who may be able to solve this Gu. However, Yun Yinzi's whereabouts are uncertain, so it is not easy to find him."

Murong Xue pondered for a moment and said firmly: "No matter how difficult it is, I will give it a try. One more helper means one more chance of success."

Zhongli Yuan held Murong Xue's hand and supported her: "Let's look for it together. There will always be a way."

Seeing this, Shi Qi interrupted their brief decision and said, "Wait, did you misunderstand something? I didn't ask you to come here to tell you how to cure Yuhuan's Gu. Yuhuan's Gu is not a problem. Don't worry about the Gu worm."

Zhong Liyuan was puzzled by Shi Qi's words. He asked, "But if her Gu is not cured, it may affect her life. Then she may not be able to do what we want her to do."

When Shi Qi heard this, he almost couldn't control his laughter: "Did you forget one thing? How did Yuhuan faint?"

Zhong Liyuan touched his head, looking confused: "Why did she faint? Wasn't it the poisonous insect in her body that made her faint?" Zhong Liyuan frowned, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he remembered something important: "Oh, that, Yuhuan seemed to be knocked unconscious by us?"

Shi Qi smiled slightly and explained: "Yes, she was knocked unconscious by you. No, we knocked her unconscious together. But that has nothing to do with the poisonous insect in her body. It wasn't the poisonous insect that made her faint directly." Shi Qi waved his hands, with a hint of helplessness and amusement in his tone.

Zhongli Yuan was still a little puzzled, frowning slightly: "It doesn't matter? Did I get the point wrong? But, she herself said that there is a poisonous insect in her body controlling her?" He looked at Shi Qi in confusion, hoping to get further answers.
