After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 226: Holding On

In the past month, the divine physician seems to have visited the princess's residence four or five times. It must be said that the princess's residence is quite welcoming to him.

Gan Luo then turned his attention to the divine physician, asking him to examine Lin Fengmian. After examining Lin Fengmian, the divine physician discovered that the poison was surprisingly potent.

Fortunately, the cleanup only left some residual toxins. Then the divine doctor took out a small knife. Gan Luo saw this and questioned the divine doctor about what he was going to do.

"Your Highness, you may not know this, but I call this removing the flesh to remove the poison. Otherwise, the poison in your little guard would penetrate deep into his internal organs, and it wouldn't just be a matter of ruining an arm."

"You mean if kicking the flesh can remove the poison, then the arm can be saved, right?"

The divine physician told Gan Luo that it was indeed possible to save him. With a smile in his eyes, Gan Luo went outside and waited quietly.

Gan Luo didn't want to stay in this room because he was afraid his heart would ache.

Lin Fengmian felt a slight pain, opened his eyes, and saw the divine doctor's actions. He didn't speak, but silently endured it without even uttering a groan.

The legendary doctor, for one moment, admired Lin Fengmian's patience, especially since the doctor was applying medicine while doing so...

"Little guard? Don't you feel any pain at all?"

Lin Fengmian didn't speak, but fine beads of sweat covered his forehead, seemingly answering the divine doctor's question. The doctor suddenly realized that Lin Fengmian's patience was truly remarkable.

It seems that Lin Fengmian's endurance was truly the result of overcoming all those traps in the Shadow Hall.

"Please hurry, miracle doctor."

Yuan Zheng also figured it out from Xiao Qi. After obtaining a token, Gan Luo found that the token he got was somewhat familiar, as if the previous assassins also had this token.

More importantly, these assassins were already dead, and the officials had been dismissed by the emperor and sent back to their hometowns.

Gan Luo naturally had someone he suspected, while Yuan Zheng was asking Gan Luo what to do next. Gan Luo told Yuan Zheng to strengthen the defenses of the princess's residence during this time.

"Ruohua, go to the outskirts and tell them they can bring Lou Yan back."

At this moment, Gan Luo was about to set up a scheme, but before he could do so, he had to make the Prime Minister suffer a bit. Even if the Prime Minister was his imperial uncle, so what?

Gan Luo remembered that this was the time for the emperor to go to the south of the Yangtze River, but the emperor had not made any move yet. The emperor had also said before that he would send the prime minister to the south of the Yangtze River.

Now, Gan Luo decided to stir things up and have her brother arrange for the prime minister to go to the south of the Yangtze River.

I don't know how much time passed, but the miracle doctor came out of there.

After the divine doctor came out, he told Gan Luo that the poison had been completely removed and that he only needed to recuperate properly to recover. It seemed that Lin Fengmian's arm had also been saved, and Gan Luo was overjoyed.

As long as Lin Fengmian's arm was saved, Gan Luo felt that it was all worthwhile. Gan Luo then pushed open the door, and Lin Fengmian was about to get up from the bed to greet Gan Luo, but Gan Luo stopped him.

"No need, you can just rest here."

Hearing Gan Luo say that, Lin Fengmian felt a warm glow in his heart.

"it is good."

Gan Luo then said he was going to the palace and that Lin Fengmian should rest there. However, Lin Fengmian stubbornly insisted on getting dressed and going to the palace with Gan Luo.

Gan Luo refused, but instead asked Green Bamboo and Jade Bamboo to accompany him. Upon hearing Gan Luo's words, the two agreed.

Suddenly, Gan Luo remembered that Hua Yu also wanted to visit the palace. Gan Luo found Hua Yu and told her to dress up nicely and come with him to the palace.

Hua Yu dressed up here, and Gan Luo took out a veil and asked Hua Yu to put it on. After all, Hua Yu was the most beautiful courtesan in the brothel, and some officials in the palace would inevitably recognize her.

To avoid any unnecessary trouble, Gan Luo had no choice but to resort to this method.

The group then headed to the palace. Hua Yu had been trying her best to keep from coughing the whole way.

Hua Yu leaned against the carriage, gazing at the scenery outside, and felt a pang of longing.

"Do you regret staying by my side? If you hadn't stayed by my side, you could have lived a good life like an ordinary woman."

"I do not regret staying by Her Highness's side."

Hua Yu's only regret was that she couldn't avenge her parents.

"I know what you're thinking. I will help you avenge your parents. I have already sent people to investigate the circumstances of the fire back then."

For some reason, Gan Luo always felt that all of this was a trap, and that he was currently trapped in it and unable to escape.

The important thing is that Zhao Wuji and Xin Ruyu actually know each other.

In his previous life, Gan Luo never knew that the two of them had known each other until his death. But in this life... to learn that the two of them knew each other, how could Gan Luo not be surprised?

Gan Luo pondered deeply here, but found that the more he thought about it, the less he understood.

If Zhao Wuji was Xin Ruyu's man, then why did Zhao Wuji rebel against Gan Luo before this instead of obeying him?

The only thing Gan Luo was clear about was that Xin Ruyu's goal was to obtain this empire and Gan Luo, but Gan Luo would never marry Xin Ruyu.

As he pondered, he arrived at the carriage below the palace, where the eunuchs respectfully bowed to Gan Luo.

Gan Luo was dressed in a light blue outfit, and behind her were three women.

The eunuchs now wanted to know Gan Luo's purpose in coming to the palace.

The palace maids noticed that Lin Fengmian wasn't with Gan Luo, and they began to discuss among themselves. "Has Her Highness the Princess's personal guard fallen out of favor? Why isn't he with Her Highness today, and instead, two maids have replaced him?"

"Your Highness, who is this girl behind you? She looks so thin and frail."

Some people speculated that this was the woman Gan Luo was going to give to the emperor.

After all, the emperor has already taken concubines, and there can't be only one concubine in the harem.
