Yue Li only felt the world spin. Her waist was being held tightly by someone, and the tip of her nose bumped into a hard chest. Waves of bloody smell rushed straight into her nose.
There were cries of surprise around her. She looked up and realized that Gu Qingcang was holding her in his arms. She stuck her head out and saw that the arrow that had been used for the sneak attack was tightly grasped in his hand.
Fresh blood trickled down his palm and dripped onto the ground.
Gu Qingcang had saved her.
Lu Chanzhuang's expression changed drastically. Her pair of eyes kept sizing up Gu Qingcang and Yueli. She had a feeling that these two people not only knew each other, but they also had a special relationship.
Gu Qingcang was not a good person. He was the most ruthless person. He was the one who left people in the lurch. She would never believe that she would save a stranger at this time.
"No wonder your highness doesn't care about the marriage bestowed by the imperial edict. It's that unpresentable Eldest Young Miss of the Su family.”Lu Chanzhuang felt that she had discovered the truth. When she thought of her sister's tragic death, she suddenly spoke without thinking.
Yueli's horizons were simply broadened. Her eyes were waiting for Lu Chanzhuang, and she instantly burst out laughing from anger.
"Miss Lu, if you don't leave now, I'll make sure you never leave again.”As he spoke, he took out another pill from his space and waved it around in his hand. "A person with a cheap mouth will never live long.”
"If you have the guts, tell us your name so that our Lu family will remember it.”
Yueli raised her head and looked over. She saw an old man in his forties or fifties standing beside Lu Chanzhuang. It was Uncle Lu who had finished distributing the antidote. He only saw his eagle eyes staring at him fiercely.
Gu Qingcang did not wait for Yueli to speak and looked at them." Since you don't want to leave, then don't leave.”
"Gu Qingcang is already an arrow at the end of its flight. If it weren't for this poison expert who came out of nowhere, do you think you could have escaped today?”Uncle Lu's face was ashen. The gaze he looked at Yueli with was so intense that he wished he could skin her alive and tear her bones apart to swallow her lower abdomen.
Gu Qingcang took a step forward, his handsome face clouded with murderous intent." Then give it a try and see if you can leave!”
Yueli looked at Gu Qingcang's steady footsteps and steady breathing. He didn't look like someone who was seriously injured at all. However, the faint smell on his body told him that there was something wrong with his injuries. It seemed that he was not the only one who used poison. The Lu family had also used it.
The reason why they were dragging it out was probably because they wanted to see when Gu Qingcang would fall.
He didn't want to meddle in this matter, but since he had already extended his hand, there was no reason for him to give up halfway. When the time came, he could also negotiate with Gu Qingcang.
Rolling her eyes, Yueli took a step forward and took out a pill. She looked at Gu Qingcang and said,""This pill can detoxify the poison in your body. Take it so that you can play with them.”
Everyone in the hall was stunned.
Uncle Lu and Lu Chanzhuang looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Uncle Lu even blurted out,"Nonsense, only we have the antidote for this poison. You want to trick us?”
Gu Qingcang turned his head, and his pitch-black eyes landed on Yueli. For a moment, he could not be sure if the pill in her hand was the antidote or not.
Yueli met Gu Qingcang's eyes and just smiled indifferently. She leaned especially close to his ear and asked softly,""Your Highness, are you afraid that I will take your life?”
Gu Qingcang only felt a warm breath sliding past his earlobe. The soft and fragrant temperature made his steel-like heart feel a little uncomfortable. He tilted his body slightly, raised his head, and swallowed the pill. Then, he said,"I don't think you would dare."
What a domineering answer.
The time the two of them spent talking was merely a split second. Yueli turned her head to look at Lu Chanzhuang and said the names of a few Chinese medicines with a smile." Miss Lu believes me now?”
"You…How did you know?" Lu Chanzhuang could not believe it. They had set up an ambush here in advance to kill Gu Qingcang, and this poison had been specially bought for thousands of dollars. This medicine would not be fatal immediately, but it would pierce through the intestines and rot to death within three days.
The Lu family hated Gu Qingcang to the core. How could they let him die so easily? Moreover, that person had clearly said that no one other than him would be able to concoct the antidote for this medicine.
Uncle Lu waited until Yueli mentioned the names of the herbs and knew that something bad was about to happen. He tugged at Lu Chanzhuang and said,""There's still a long way to go. We're unlucky today, so we'll retreat first.”
Even though Lu Chanzhuang was unwilling, she could only grit her teeth and retreat with her men when she saw that the Lu family disciple who had just taken the antidote had no fighting strength left. Before she left, she looked at Gu Qingcang with hatred in her eyes." The green hills will not change, and the green rivers will flow forever. One day, I will take your dog life."”
The people in the room immediately left. Gu Qingcang's body went limp. The sword in his hand fell to the ground and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yueli supported him and raised her voice as she looked upstairs." Don't hide anymore. Quickly call a carriage over."”
After the Lu family left, the people upstairs came out very quickly. They looked at Gu Qingcang and said,"It's really not like you to be in such a sorry state.”As he spoke, he looked at Yueli again." Didn't you give him the antidote? Why is he still vomiting blood?"”
Yue Li rolled her eyes." Do you think I'm a god that knows what kind of poison the other party used? The medicine just now was not the antidote. It was a trick. Otherwise, how could we escape?”
Both Lou Shanglou and Gu Qingcang were shocked. They could not believe their ears.
"Then what did you feed him?"
"If you keep nagging, he'll really die.”Yueli said with a frown. She tore off the hem of her clothes, dipped it in Gu Qingcang's blood, and wrote a prescription. She stuffed it into Lou Shanglou's hands." Send him to a safe place and get the medicine according to the prescription. Drink it for three days straight. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the Great Immortal to save him."”
After saying that, she clapped her hands and was about to leave. How could she let her go? She grabbed her and pushed Gu Qingcang onto her. Then, she ran out." I'll call a carriage to pick you up and get the medicine. I'll leave her to you."”
" Hey…" Yueli was so angry that her face turned red. This Lou Loulou was not reliable at all.
Gu Qingcang had been poisoned and had held on for so long. At this moment, his body went limp and he immediately placed all his weight on Yueli's body.
Yueli almost fell flat on her stomach from the sudden force. She gritted her teeth and supported him." Your Highness, it's not very good for you to do this, right?”
"Benwang has been poisoned and is weak all over.”
"I haven't married you yet. There's nothing between us.”
"Sooner or later, I'll have to marry you. I didn't expect you to care so much about this king and actually take the risk to save me.”
Bah! This shameless person, who had fallen in love with him!
"Your Highness probably has a bad memory. I told you that I took someone's money to help them resolve the disaster.”If Yueli had not recovered her physical strength during this period of time, Gu Qingcang's weight would really have crushed her.
"Is that so? This king is only worth ten thousand taels?" Gu Qingcang pretended to be relaxed as he spoke, but he secretly suppressed the sharp pain in his internal organs. Cold sweat dripped down his cheeks and onto the ground. He forced himself not to faint. He still had many questions to ask.#
