Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Imperial Physician Qin had initially suspected that Gu Qingxue was feigning her illness.
However, when his fingers touched Gu Qingxue’s wrist, his expression changed rapidly. First, it was a shock, then disbelief, and finally, it turned into a serious expression.
Gu Qingxue took in the series of changes in Imperial physician Qin’s expression. She pretended to be worried and asked, “Imperial physician Qin, how’s my condition?”
Imperial Physician Qin looked at Gu Qingxue as if he had seen a ghost. “Why is your pulse so chaotic? I’ve never seen a person with such a complicated pulse.”
“Let me take a look.” Only then did Judge Wu take action. He walked up to take Gu Qingxue’s pulse, his expression grave. “Doctor Gu’s pulse is complicated. Sometimes it’s fast and sometimes it’s slow. Her body temperature is sometimes hot and sometimes cold. I’ve never seen such a complicated pulse.
I’m really powerless and don’t know how to solve it.”
In despair, Nanny Sheng looked at the two and asked anxiously, “The two Imperial physicians can’t ignore this. If you can’t save the Eldest Miss, then wouldn’t she not have long to live?”
Kang Fujiang’s face turned pale and hurriedly said, “That won’t do, Doctor Gu. His Majesty misses you, so you must take care of your health!”
Gu Qingxue nodded, then suddenly started coughing weakly. “Cough, cough, cough!”
Nanny Sheng took a handkerchief and covered Gu Qingxue’s lips. When Gu Qingxue finished coughing and lifted the handkerchief, she saw that it was covered in blood!
Tears streamed down Nanny Sheng’s face. She shook Gu Qingxue’s shoulders and cried out in a shrill voice, “Eldest Miss!”
After Gu Qingxue vomited blood, it was as if her soul had been drawn out of her body. Then, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Judge Wu was equally shocked. He quickly took out his silver needles and pills to treat Gu Qingxue.
Imperial physician Qin stood at the side and watched, occasionally lending a hand. He realized that Gu Qingxue was really dying from the worry in her heart.
Imperial physician Qin could not help but wonder when he saw Gu Qingxue fall into a deep sleep once again.
Could it be that Gu Ye’s vengeful spirit had really returned and wanted his daughter to avenge him?
After realizing this, Imperial Physician Qin’s heart instantly turned cold.
Kang Fujiang had been standing at the side and watching nervously ever since Gu Qingxue vomited blood. When he was sure that Gu Qingxue wasn’t dead and had only fainted, the heart that had been in his throat finally settled down. He kept mumbling, “This is no small matter. I must report this to His Majesty as soon as possible.”
“How do you explain this? We can’t really let Gu Qingxue investigate what happened back then!” Imperial Physician Qin looked at the two of them and asked nervously.
Judge Wu’s faint gaze swept over, “Just now I have been very curious. Why is it that when the matter of the past was mentioned, Imperial Physician Qin appeared so nervous? Could it be that Imperial Physician Qin has a guilty conscience?”
Imperial Physician Qin’s back was drenched in a cold sweat, but he pretended to be calm, “What are you talking about? Judge Wu, I have always done things in an honest manner, so don’t slander me. I just feel that it’s easy to cause panic if I look into what happened back then, hehe.”
Nanny Sheng snorted softly and sized Imperial physician Qin up from the corner of her eye. “If my Old Master is really franed, then only those who have wronged my old master would be flustered. Imperial Ohysician Qin has always been honest, so you shouldn’t have to worry about this, right?”
Imperial Physician Qin could not refute Nanny Sheng’s words and could only stammer, “That… that’s for sure..
