Chapter 2021 Gu Insect
"It seems that we need to investigate further to find out. Changli, I will suppress the toxicity for you first."
"okay."
The two men put away the sachets and began to use acupuncture to suppress the poison, and they were busy all night.
The next day, after learning that Chen Changli was ill, Liu Xiuyun immediately visited him with gifts.
When she came to visit with supplements, she saw Wan Shufang taking care of Chen Changli. Seeing Chen Changli's frail appearance, Liu Xiuyun couldn't help but joked, "The Duke has an easy life. When he is sick, he has his wife, who is a skilled doctor, to take care of him personally."
Hearing this, both of them blushed for a moment. Wan Shufang took the supplement from her hand and said angrily, "You, you are restless even in a wheelchair. Why do you have to come here for this trip?"
"It is reasonable for me to come and see my savior. Besides, Zhong Zhoufeng brought me here, so I won't be tired. Don't worry."
"That's good. Thank you Miss Liu for coming to see my husband."
The two of them were like close friends, teasing each other with smiles on their faces. Chen Changli also endured the discomfort and thanked Liu Xiuyun: "Thank you for your concern, Miss Liu. I am fine."
"Don't worry... cough cough cough..." Chen Changli frowned suddenly, and before he could finish his words, he started coughing violently, and the blood he coughed up fell to the ground.
Looking at the dark red blood, Liu Xiuyun's face changed immediately, and she quickly controlled the wheelchair to check: "What's going on? Why is he coughing up blood?"
At this point, how could Liu Xiuyun not understand? Chen Changli was not sick at all, but something had happened!
Seeing that Liu Xiuyun had discovered it, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang looked at each other and finally did not hide it from her anymore. She helped Chen Changli sit down and Wan Shufang sighed faintly: "It's poisoning."
"At the moment, I can only confirm that it was caused by a sachet, but I can't find out what the toxin is, so I can't solve it with him."
"Sachet? What sachet?"
Hearing this, Wan Shufang did not avoid Liu Xiuyun. She directly took out the sachet and placed it on the table, but subconsciously placed it a little further away from Chen Changli.
He is now poisoned and must not be touched again.
Looking at the red powder, Liu Xiuyun's expression became serious. She was hesitant to make a conclusion and examined it carefully for a long time.
"Sir, Madam, I seem to have seen this thing before." Liu Xiuyun pondered for a moment, picked up a little powder on her hand, and sniffed it.
A fresh fragrance wafted into her nose, and her face changed drastically, as if she was sure of something in an instant.
Seeing Liu Xiuyun's look, Wan Shufang also became anxious and couldn't help but hold Chen Changli's hand tightly: "Xiuyun, what on earth is this?"
"It's the love Gu, a highly poisonous substance in Southern Xinjiang. Anyone who is infected with the love Gu will fall in love with the person who cast the Gu. The lives of the two are linked."
Liu Xiuyun spoke slowly, looking up, as if recalling the past: "I heard this from my grandmother. Back then, my grandmother came from a prominent family and had a close relationship with Southern Xinjiang."
"Love Gu is almost impossible to cure. If you kill the person who put the Gu in your body, the person who is poisoned will also die immediately. In southern Xinjiang, this is called living together and flying together..."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang was immediately furious, her face full of sarcasm: "What an unfair clause, they deserve to be buried with me, right?"
She laughed out of anger, but she knew that now was not the time to attack the love poison, so she could only pretend to be calm and ask, "Xiuyun, since you know about this poison, do you have a way to cure it?"
After she finished speaking, Wan Shufang's eyes were filled with hope. She only hoped that Liu Xiuyun could come up with a useful method. No matter what, she would save Chen Changli, even if it required her to go to southern Xinjiang.
But Liu Xiuyun finally disappointed her.
He just shook his head solemnly, sighed and said, "There is no cure for the love poison. If the person who removed the poison is willing to use his heart blood as a medicine, there may be a glimmer of hope."
"But we don't know who put the poison in our body..." Wan Shufang was in a dilemma for a moment. Her brows were knitted together with worry, and she looked several years older.
Seeing her like this, Chen Changli couldn't help but feel distressed. He reached out his hand and patted her head soothingly.
But those hands were soft and weak, as if they would not be able to be lifted up in the next second.
"Changli..." Wan Shufang's eyes welled up with tears. Her thoughts were in turmoil. She tried hard to think over every detail of these days, trying to find clues.
Just as he was thinking, there was another knock on the door, followed by Lu Xiaoyue's cheerful greeting: "Brother Chen, Madam Chen, I'm here to see you."
After saying that, Lu Xiaoyue pushed the door open without waiting for the two to call out, and when she saw that there was another person in the room, she was stunned for a moment and then smiled sweetly.
"Brother Chen, have you had breakfast?"
Hearing this, Chen Changli shook his head and said nothing, while Liu Xiuyun and Wan Shufang also kept silent.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Lu Xiaoyue stared at Chen Changli for a long time, and suddenly a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She stretched out her fingers and gently touched Chen Changli's pale face.
"Madam, I am the only one who can cure Brother Chen's illness."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the three people in the room suddenly darkened and they all stared at her. They saw Lu Xiaoyue laughing wantonly with greed in her eyes.
Her possessiveness towards Chen Changli and those ambiguous words made Wan Shufang's eyes immediately turn cold: "Lu Xiaoyue, what do you mean?"
"Madam, don't you understand? I'm the only one who can cure love poison." She made it clear, and Wan Shufang was so angry that she slammed the table and stood up. However, Lu Xiaoyue was not afraid at all, and even raised her head: "If you kill me, Brother Chen will be buried with you."
Seeing that Wan Shufang really stopped moving, the smugness on Lu Xiaoyue's face became more and more obvious.
"You can ask me to save him, but you have to promise me to marry you and become Brother Chen's wife, and you have to leave me alone."
"Whose little girl are you? You are going too far. Do you think you can interfere in the relationship between the master and the madam?" Liu Xiuyun frowned and scolded. She injured her leg and seldom left the Liu residence, so she was not familiar with Lu Xiaoyue.
But Lu Xiaoyue knew her, Qin Tianci's wife, and one of the people he wanted to take revenge on.
"Whether to marry or not is up to you, Madam." Lu Xiaoyue waved her hand indifferently, then sat down. No one spoke in the room for a long time.
Chen Changli was so angry that he wanted to kick the person out, but he felt that his body was getting weaker and weaker after getting close to Lu Xiaoyue.
Wan Shufang naturally noticed this abnormality, and the atmosphere became tense for a moment. In the end, Wan Shufang gritted her teeth and agreed to Lu Xiaoyue.
"Okay, I promise you."
"As long as you are willing to help save him, I will let you be his legal wife!"
"Shufang..." Chen Changli and Liu Xiuyun said in unison, both wanting to stop Wan Shufang, but Wan Shufang shook her head at them. The only way now was to stabilize Lu Xiaoyue.
She is the only medicine...
"Okay, thank you ma'am for your help. Brother Chen, you are finally mine."
Wan Shufang's concession made Lu Xiaoyue even more unscrupulous. She moved in that very day and after becoming the so-called "Duke's Wife", she intensified her humiliation of Wan Shufang.
She deliberately knocked over the medicine bowl, ridiculed her in front of the servants, and made her kneel down as punishment.
