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

Chapter 342 Detoxification

They had too many doubts and endless worries, but what they should do now was to follow He Mobai and Bai Zang's instructions and ensure Jun Yanchen's safety. They could not afford to be negligent or procrastinate.

When Gu Nanzhi appeared in the courtyard, her disheveled appearance worried everyone.

"lady,"

"Miss, you're injured."

Where is Jun Yanchen?

At this moment, Gu Nanzhi paid no attention to her injuries and immediately spoke of Jun Yanchen.

At this moment, Gu Nanzhi's face was grim, devoid of her usual warmth. Her negative emotions were made no attempt to conceal, and anyone could sense the hostility emanating from her.

This murderous aura originated from Jun Yanchen, who had collapsed upon arriving home.

The emotions of Cang Ling were easier for Steward Li and the others to understand, because they all knew that the mistress would be needing to detoxify her master within the next two days.

But then, at the very last minute, this unexpected event occurred...

"Madam, the master is in the room; the needles on his body were not touched."

Bai Zang and He Mobai were both somewhat shocked as to how Gu Nanzhi, who didn't know any light-body skills, could descend the mountain right after them.

But this is not the time to focus on these things.

Jun Yanchen is in a very bad state right now.

"Preparing for detoxification"

Gu Nanzhi pondered for a moment, then went inside and took out two doses of medicine, handing them to Steward Li.

"Uncle Li, decoct this first and bring it inside. Remember the order of preparation for this one, and also prepare the medicine for the bath."

"Yes"

Butler Li remembered the instructions and turned to the kitchen to brew the medicine in order. Xia He and Ren Shuqing also followed to help watch the fire.

Gu Nanzhi turned around and went back into her room. When she came out, she was carrying some things in her hand. She then went into Jun Yanchen's room.

"Cang Ling is here too; the rest of you wait outside,"

He Mobai, Bai Zang, and Cang Ling followed them into the house, while the others waited anxiously at the door. They wanted to help but were helpless, and could only anxiously look inside and pace back and forth.

Upon entering the room, Bai Zang spoke.

"Madam, the master's condition is critical; there seems to be something under his skin."

“I know, it’s the poison in his body causing this,”

Gu Nanzhi entered the room and methodically prepared her things. Actually, there wasn't much; she mainly took out a set of silver needles, and when she spread them out, there was also a scalpel...

"Bai Zang took a clean cloth and later stuffed it into his mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue,"

"Yes"

"Jun Yanchen's poison is acting rapidly, making his detoxification process more painful and risky. Cangling, please use your inner strength to protect him later."

"Yes"

Even though Jun Yanchen was unconscious from Gu Nanzhi's silver needles while lying on the bed, it was clear that his body was enduring immense torment.

His whole body was trembling unconsciously, veins bulging on his face, even contorting it slightly, and there was that strange thing wriggling under his skin again...

At this moment, the group did whatever Gu Nanzhi asked them to do.

Gu Nanzhi was not in a hurry; she was waiting for the first bowl of medicine that Steward Li would brew.

After seeing that she had taken two more pills and then made no further moves, He Mobai spoke.

"Madam, is there anything else you need?"

"Waiting for the medicine"

Gu Nanzhi stood motionless in front of the bed, watching Jun Yanchen.

The group understood that they were waiting for Steward Li to brew the medicine. He Mobai continued speaking.

"Madam, let me treat your injuries first,"

Yes, Gu Nanzhi also had two knife wounds on her body when facing those villains, one on each arm. The wounds were stained red on her clothes, revealing the bloody cuts.

Perhaps because hemostatic medication had been applied, but the wound wasn't bandaged, blood was still seeping out faintly.

The crimson wound stung their eyes. They were all deeply worried about Jun Yanchen, but Madam was a woman, and having suffered such an injury, she still had to detoxify Jun Yanchen...

“No problem”

Gu Nanzhi remained motionless. She knew about the injury on her arm; she had applied hemostatic medicine and taken painkillers.

At this moment, she felt a strong sense of tension, worry, and even a hint of fear.

Because of the person lying down wearing it,

These feelings of caring are somewhat different from how I used to treat friends.

This feeling made her clearly aware of the feelings she had for Jun Yanchen.

Therefore, seeing Jun Yanchen like this made her ignore the pain in her body...

He Mobai, Bai Cang, and Cang Ling were about to speak again. Right now, their master was important, but their mistress was equally important, not only because she could cure their master's poison.

Also because of their master's feelings for his wife.

However, Gu Nanzhi did not allow them to speak.

"He Mobai, Bai Zang, do you remember the acupuncture techniques I used when I gave Jun Yanchen a medicinal bath?"

Gu Nanzhi changed the subject and asked a question. The two understood that she was doing it on purpose, so they had no choice but to answer in the same way.

"Remember"

"Okay, you might need to finish this in a bit,"

The two were somewhat confused, but then they realized it was because of Gu Nanzhi's arm injury. Just as they were about to offer to bandage the wound again,

Butler Li brought in a slightly larger bowl containing some water, along with a bowl of steaming brown medicinal liquid.

"Madam, the first dose of medicine is ready. This old servant has cooled it down with ice water."

"Okay, put it down."

Butler Li is a very thoughtful person.

Thanks to the ice water, the scalding hot medicine poured from the stove quickly cooled down, and Gu Nanzhi finally made her move.

Holding two pills, she pried open Jun Yanchen's jaw and forcibly fed him the pills.

"He Mobai, I'll remove the gold needles and then pour the medicine into your mouth."

With a serious expression, Gu Nanzhi began removing the golden needles from Jun Yanchen's body. As the needles were removed, Jun Yanchen felt increasingly stronger sensations; the toxins within his body surged more and more fiercely.

At this moment, his entire body was like a battlefield, with the deadly poisons fighting and devouring his internal organs.

As the medicinal liquid was poured in,

It seemed as if some more power had been transferred to his internal organs to continue fighting against the toxins, while his entire body endured the immense, excruciating pain of being torn apart, causing his veins to bulge and his body to contort. If someone hadn't been holding him back, he might have fallen off the bed in the struggle...

"Cang Ling, protect him!"

Upon receiving the order, Cang Ling quickly channeled her inner energy to protect her master.

Gu Nanzhi grabbed Jun Yanchen's right wrist, took a scalpel, and made a cut on his wrist. The blood that gushed out was no longer the normal bright red; it had a hint of black, and the smell of the blood was also different from that of a normal person.

At this moment, the group finally saw the Gu worm that Gu Nanzhi was raising, which could be used to detoxify. The Gu worm had now shrunk to the size of a little finger.

Its body was covered in what appeared to be scales, seemingly shimmering with golden light, yet also tinged with a blood-red hue; that tiny insect was truly eerie.

Even He Mobai, a doctor with extensive medical knowledge, was stunned by the sight of such a bizarre insect, Bai Zang had never seen anything like it before.

This poison is truly bizarre.

It's unimaginable that those poisonous creatures would eventually breed such a worm.

What's even more bizarre is that, right before their eyes, the insect, after touching the wound on Jun Yanchen's wrist, wriggled and burrowed under Jun Yanchen's skin.

You can even clearly see it moving around.
