Chapter 1326: Chapter 975: Poison Doctor Unrivaled 36 (four thousand)_3
"How did you feel last night?"
"When I was at Fenglin Garden, and Consort Hua died, my heart started to burn, feel acidic, uncomfortable, with piercing pain in my chest. After returning to Tangli Palace, my head hurt terribly, then I slept. After waking, all those feelings were gone. Does this mean Mother is okay?"
Murong Xue felt a surge of excitement, accompanied by Murong Han’s shining eyes. Shui Yixuan remained calm.
"What are you standing around for? Hurry and send a message back to Xiran Island, and ask about the situation."
Murong Han jumped up: "You guys use this, I’ll be back shortly."
As Murong Han left, Shui Yixuan looked at Murong Xue with concern: "Haven’t you been eating properly lately? You’ve lost so much weight?"
Murong Xue didn’t feel she had lost weight, but since it was evident to the eye, she must have lost a lot. Losing weight was a good thing for her, so she didn’t mind at all: "Probably worried too much. It’s nothing. Once things here are resolved, I’ll eat more and regain it. But you, because of matters concerning me and my brother, you’ve spent a lot of effort and resources this time, right? Don’t worry, I’ll find a way to make it up to you in the future."
Shui Yixuan seized the opportunity: "How to make it up? Marry me?"
Murong Xue froze: "Well, now it’s not just up to me,
"As long as you’re willing, that’s enough. I’m sure your brother stands by you, and I’ve even met your family...,
Murong Xue didn’t expect Shui Yixuan to confess in such a situation, caught off guard, but mostly feeling uncertain, because she’s used to being single all her life and hasn’t planned to find someone to spend her life with yet. However, compared comprehensively, marrying a Jianghu person is indeed more free than marrying into the Royal Family, especially now that her status is restored, many things may be out of her control. If that’s the case, deciding early might not be a bad idea.
Beiming Yi, the original male lead in this life is like a ticking bomb, helping them inexplicably, who knows what his agenda is? It’s wise to be cautious early. However, remaining reserved now, is certainly not wrong; if she agrees immediately upon confession, wouldn’t it be too easy?
"How’s the Bai Family matter being handled?"
Choosing to change the topic appropriately.
Shui Yixuan could see through her thoughts, but didn’t expose, responding naturally.
"Besides the matters we worry about, other aspects are planned jointly by the Shui Clan, Shura Sect, and Yue Palace. The Bai Family is like fish in a pot, won’t last long. The urgent task is to find out how many among them carry poisons, and distinguish between Mother Poisonous Insect and Child Gu. It’s not easy, this thing needs to be eradicated completely, or we’ll never have peace!"
Murong Xue thought for a moment, "There’s a solution. Tomorrow, gather everyone from the Bai Family. I have a medicine here that can cause reactions in people who have been implanted with Gu Worms through their limbs. We will then separately confine those who react, and research one by one. In principle, eliminating Mother Poisonous Insect will also kill Child Gu, and Mother Poisonous Insect connects through the meridian with the Host. Once confirmed, they must be killed, or they’ll pose future threats."
"It seems this time Lanyue Country needs a major cleanse. I think it’s not just the Bai Family; your brother should comb through the Bai Family’s network, clear them one by one, ensuring no one slips through. However, if so, your medicine needs mass production. Do you have a prescription? I’ll help you make it."
Murong Xue nodded, "Yes, but tonight I need a final confirmation. Tomorrow, let’s find someone to test first. If successful, we’ll mass-produce, with the court’s support, distribute nationwide for a census. It’s just a matter of time, but...,
The two sighed simultaneously: "As long as Donglin Continent can enter our continent, this Gu, cannot be eradicated completely,
"The current primary issue is ensuring the court is clean, start with these civil and military officials, harem concubines, royal relatives, the rest take it slow. Since it’s uncontrollable, let’s find the root from the source."
Gu, this kind of thing has been passed down for thousands of years, how could this young girl completely eradicate it?
Though such things are vile and filthy, you cannot deny, in certain aspects, their existence is beneficial. For example, some severely poisoned individuals can rely on Gu’s poison to dilute toxins in the body. Speaking of which, seems like Beiming Yi’s poison is worth a try.
