Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

After a long and painstaking explanation, Gu Qinghe finally gained trust.

When the two children heard that she was going to the general's mansion, they volunteered to take her there and walked her all the way to the gate of the mansion.

As soon as she entered the door, Gu Qinghe bumped into Gao Cun who was in a hurry. When he saw her, Gao Cun's eyes lit up and he hurried over.

"The King of Wu is in the front hall. Doctor Gu, why don't you go to the backyard to take shelter?"

Gu Qinghe narrowed his eyes and said, "No need."

Gu Qinghe didn't dare to act rashly before finding Lu Zhiyao, but now that Lu Zhiyao has been rescued, Gu Qinghe can just go for it.

So what if the King of Wu has doubts?

It is really better to do it today than to wait for a day. She was angry because of some things she heard from Xiaohe in the past few days. The arrival of King Wu just helped her to cool down a little.

lobby.

The smile on King Wu's face seemed somewhat stiff.

Shao Wei didn't really want to deal with this person, so after a brief greeting, he got straight to the point and asked King Wu why he came.

The King of Wu was not angry at all. His slightly fat face made him look somewhat gentle.

"I heard that Doctor Gu from the capital also came to Chizhou with General Shao. How come I didn't see him?"

Shao Wei raised his eyebrows, "Doctor Gu had something to do when she came to Chizhou, and she was not in my general's mansion. Does the prince want to see her for something?"

"It's nothing serious, but I remember that she went to my house to see Pingyang before coming to Lizhou. It's been a while since she came to Lizhou. The princess is worried about Pingyang, and her condition is getting worse. So I came here to ask how Pingyang is doing now. By the way, I'd like to ask Doctor Gu to come over and check the princess' pulse."

He knew that there were many loopholes in his words, so he sighed and continued, "The general should have heard of Pingyang's temper. The letters that the prince and the princess wrote to our family have not received any replies. We really have no choice but to come and ask Doctor Gu."

Shao Wei sneered in his heart. He knew better than anyone whether he had not received a reply or had never written the letter at all.

But the current situation is that everyone pretends to be confused even though they know the truth. Shao Wei cleared his throat and said, "If I see Doctor Gu later, I will definitely ask him on behalf of the prince."

The implication is that he intends to send the guest away.

But the King of Wu had no intention of leaving. "General Shao is busy with official duties, and I have no intention of disturbing him. Why don't you tell me where Doctor Gu lives, and I will go visit him in person?"

Before Shao Wei could speak, he heard familiar footsteps. He sighed slightly and turned his head helplessly, "That's not necessary. The person the prince is looking for is here."

As soon as he saw Gu Qinghe, King Wu stood up immediately. No matter how well he disguised himself, the sudden coldness in his eyes could not deceive anyone.

But he quickly calmed down, exchanged a few words with Gu Qinghe with a smile, and then asked about Pingyang. Then he got to the point, "The princess has had a loss of appetite for several days, and her headaches have become more and more severe. Now she is bedridden and unable to get up. Could you trouble Doctor Gu to go to Lizhou and prescribe some medicine for the princess?"

Although Lizhou is close to Chizhou, it is already late today and it will take a lot of time to go back and forth.

Based on her current understanding of the King of Wu, this man has no feelings for either the Princess of Wu or Pingyang, and only treats them as objects to be used.

This made it difficult for her not to suspect that the Princess of Wu's illness was caused by the King of Wu. If she really went there, she couldn't say whether she could come back tonight.

But since the King of Wu had spoken, it would obviously not work if she couldn't find a legitimate reason.

Shao Wei was of course aware of this, but he did not have as many concerns as Gu Qinghe, and said calmly: "It's too late today, I will go with her tomorrow morning."

King Wu sighed, "It's not that I'm anxious, it's just that the princess's condition is not good, and I feel very uncomfortable. I have invited all the famous doctors in Lizhou, but they didn't help at all. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have come to disturb General Shao."

After these words were spoken, if Gu Qinghe refused again, it would be obvious that she would be at odds with King Wu.

After exchanging a glance with Shao Wei, Gu Qinghe said, "In that case, I will go with the prince. However, I didn't bring the medicine box when I came. I will ask someone to go back and get it. Please wait for a moment, prince."

Gao Cun quickly went back and brought Gu Qinghe's medicine box, in case he stayed in Lizhou tonight and couldn't come back, and Lu Zhiyao would worry about her. Gu Qinghe also specifically asked Gao Cun to tell Lu Zhiyao that she was going to see a patient and the journey was a long way, so she might not be able to come back tonight.

After getting the medicine box, Gu Qinghe followed King Wu and prepared to set off.

King Wu looked at the people who followed him into the carriage leisurely, his expression a little stiff, "General Shao, don't you have something to do in the military camp today?"

Shao Wei remained calm, "It's getting late, and there's nothing important to do. It won't be too late to be busy tomorrow."

"..." I don't know who just used the excuse of being busy with official business to chase away the guests.

It was already completely dark when they arrived in Lizhou. As soon as Gu Qinghe got off the carriage, he was invited to the bedroom of Princess Wu.

Shao Wei was waiting in the front hall.

Gu Qinghe had previously met Princess Wu when she sneaked into Prince Wu's mansion disguised as a servant. Although Princess Wu was weak at that time, she was still barely okay.

However, today, as soon as she entered the door, she frowned subconsciously, and an extremely unpleasant, disgusting smell lingered at the tip of her nose.

She walked over and saw Princess Wu lying flat on the bed, unable to see clearly. Standing by the bed was a nanny with red eyes.

Gu Qinghe had heard of the identity of this nanny. Princess Wu's maternal family was quite powerful in her early years, and her aunt had been the imperial concubine of the previous emperor. This nanny originally served in the palace, and was later assigned to Princess Wu by her aunt. She had taken care of Princess Wu since she was a child, and naturally they had a very deep relationship.

She spent so many years in the palace when she was young, so she understood many things much better than ordinary people.

She had advised Princess Wu many times over the years, but bystanders see things more clearly than those involved. In addition, Princess Wu's mother's family is no longer as powerful as it used to be. Even if she wanted to be willful, she had to weigh the pros and cons.

It was because of all the hesitation that we have come to this point today.

As soon as Gu Qinghe walked in, the nanny recognized her and said, "You are the doctor Gu who treated our princess before."

Gu Qinghe nodded and walked towards the bed, "Let me take the princess' pulse first."

The bed curtain was opened, and Gu Qinghe could see the appearance of Princess Wu clearly.

It was no exaggeration to describe her as skinny as a stick, and the unpleasant smell that Gu Qinghe had smelled earlier was emanating from Princess Wu.

Gu Qinghe had a bad feeling.

"How long has this been going on, Princess?"

"It's been more than half a month," the old lady said sadly. "The princess lost her appetite after just two days in Lizhou. We consulted many doctors, but they all said it was just a case of acclimatization and that she would be fine in a few days. But it looks like her condition is getting worse."
