Exile at the start? The princess is no ordinary woman.

If that's the case, then that's wonderful! Their prince is saved! His gaze towards Gu Nanzhi immediately became like that of someone grasping at a lifeline.

This princess is indeed different.

At this moment, Gu Nanzhi's performance was their lifeline, so they had no doubt whatsoever about how a young lady who grew up in the countryside could know medicine.

Because at this moment, they were more worried about the prince's life.

The commotion here was quite significant, and the people in the neighboring cells had been watching closely. Upon hearing Butler Li's words, their attitudes shifted, and they focused their attention even more intently on the situation here.

Gu Nanzhi did not answer Butler Li's question, but her actions seemed to convey the answer.

However, this casual pulse-taking, which Gu Nanzhi had initially approached with a relaxed attitude, unexpectedly made her take it more seriously.

Tsk tsk tsk... to have survived until now, well, that's a tough guy.

As Butler Li waited expectantly, Gu Nanzhi released Jun Yanchen's hand, moved to a different spot, took Cang Ling's hand, and placed it on his pulse as well.

Hmm... no wonder they're master and servant, they both seem to have a knack for poison.

Butler Li and Zhou Cai were extremely anxious, but they dared not urge them.

Gu Nanzhi already knew what was going on, so she stood up and clapped her hands.

"Your Highness," Butler Li called out nervously.

What does the princess's silence mean? If she doesn't know medicine, then her behavior just now is something only a doctor would do. But if she does know medicine, what is the current situation of the prince and the others? Princess, please tell us!

Gu Nanzhi still didn't answer, but instead, she slipped her right hand into the slightly oversized cuff of her left sleeve.

She remembered that people in ancient times had the habit of hiding things in their sleeves, so she decided to do the same. After rummaging around for a while, she actually found anti-inflammatory medicine and painkillers in her storage space, and took out four tablets from her sleeve with her hands.

There were also two small bottles, which he then took out of his hand.

"Here, if you trust me, give each of them two pills, one for each person. The small bottle contains an external medicine; apply it to the wounds."

Upon seeing the medicine, Steward Li's eyes lit up with joy. He quickly took it and prepared to administer it to the prince. However, looking at the white, round, and square pills in his hand, he hesitated. He had never seen such pills before. Could he really give them to the prince?

Xia He looked at her in surprise when she saw her mistress take out the medicine from her sleeve.

How could the young lady possibly have medicine hidden in her sleeve? She remembered that the young lady never hid anything in her sleeves. Although puzzled, she chose to remain silent.

The young lady had told her that after losing her memory, she gained a lot of other knowledge, including medical skills. She just needed to trust the young lady.

Thinking of this, she lowered her head again.

Seeing the butler's hesitation, Gu Nanzhi casually explained, "Don't worry, those are anti-inflammatory and painkillers. With such severe injuries, without timely treatment, the wounds are bound to become infected and inflamed. Quickly give them to them."

After saying that, she glanced at the little girl who was clearly scared but still wanted to follow her and called out, "Xia He, let's go."

As for those two, they could survive the night even without their own medicine, though it wouldn't be an easy time, especially since they were to be exiled at dawn tomorrow.

Let's just say she took pity on them; it's just a little medicine. Let them have a peaceful night.

As for the toxins in the body...

"Yes, miss"

Xia He quickly followed her mistress back to the corner where the two had been. Gu Nanzhi sat down in the same spot again.

Xia He looked at her mistress with some trepidation, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping herself.

Gu Nanzhi guessed what the little girl wanted to say, and to prevent her from having trouble sleeping tonight, she simply whispered an explanation.

"Xia He, do you remember what I told you?"

Xia He nodded quickly, "Yes, I remember."

"It's good that you remember. Since you chose to be with me, you'll gradually get used to it. Remember that the me now is different from the me before, understand?"

Despite hearing her mistress's words, Xia He still had doubts. In just a few short hours, she could sense that her mistress was different from before, but she still couldn't understand why her mistress had suddenly taken out those medicines.

Forget it, she's not very bright anyway. If she can't figure it out, she shouldn't think about it anymore. As long as she trusts her mistress and follows her, that's the right thing to do.

"Yes, Miss, I understand."

"My dear, let me tell you, your young lady has been enlightened by an immortal. From now on, if you follow me, I'll guarantee you a life of luxury."

Looking at this naive, innocent, and sincere little girl, Gu Nanzhi felt a urge to tease her.

Upon hearing the word "immortal," Xia He's eyes instantly lit up as she looked at her young mistress. Yes, how could she not have thought of that? Her young mistress had lost her memory but had also acquired medical skills—wasn't that precisely because she had received guidance from an immortal?

So, those medicines must have been given to the young lady by the immortal without her knowledge.

That's great! If that's true, then Miss won't have to be bullied like before.

"That's wonderful, Miss, then..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, or someone will hear and be envious." Gu Nanzhi watched the little girl's changing gaze the whole time. Sure enough, ancient people were even more superstitious about gods and immortals; they believed anything just because someone said it.

The little girl is too naive and easy to fool. She's also quite obedient; I'll let her protect her from now on.

Xia He quickly covered her mouth with her hand, looking at her mistress with innocent eyes. She then looked around and, seeing that no one else was paying attention to them, she felt relieved.

"Miss, this is wonderful! With the immortal's guidance, we won't be afraid of being bullied anymore!"

The little girl is quite cute; with her around, I won't let her get bullied anymore.

"Okay, no one will dare to bully us anymore. Go to sleep, sweetie."

Everything was unfamiliar to me when I first came into this world. It would be nice to have such a naive, easily fooled, and adorable little girl by my side in the future.

Butler Li hesitated for a few seconds, but after receiving the Princess's explanation, he immediately chose to believe her. He then divided the medicine and had Zhou Cai feed it to Cang Ling, while he himself served the Prince.

After finally getting the medicine down their throats, they each took a bottle of wound medicine given to them by the princess and carefully applied it to their bloodied backs.

The Qi family had been watching closely. Seeing that Gu Nanzhi knew medicine and had even brought out some, they glanced at her again. Then, watching from afar as Butler Li applied medicine to the wound, they slowly withdrew their gaze.

After a long and tiring night, the cell gradually quieted down, and as time passed, the even sounds of snoring and breathing could be heard.

Gu Nanzhi finally waited for this moment. She quietly opened her eyes in the darkness. The brazier in the prison corridor was still burning, and its light could still illuminate the two cells, though the light was weak.

After checking on the Qi family next door and Butler Li and his group, Gu Nanzhi quietly took out a sleeping incense from her spatial storage.

After all, I'm going to do something naughty soon, and I'll be performing a disappearing act, so it's better to be safe than sorry. I had no choice but to use sleeping potion.

After waiting quietly for another half hour, at 7:45 PM, Gu Nanzhi finally gently freed herself from Xia He's grasp on her sleeve, stood up, and even took a few steps. After observing the situation on both sides and confirming that everything was alright, she performed a disappearing act and entered the space.

"Little White, Little White,"

"Owner"
