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

Chapter 345 Bombing the Golden Palace

Gu Nanzhi glanced at the people surrounding her with drooping eyelids.

"Is there anything to eat?"

"Yes, yes, madam, please wait a moment,"

Upon receiving the key words, Butler Li immediately turned and went to the kitchen, where the food prepared for her had been kept warm on the stove, all in anticipation of this moment.

Xia He and Ren Shuqing helped Gu Nanzhi to the living room. Even in the candlelight and moonlight, Gu Nanzhi's face remained pale.

It made people worry.

He Mobai also sat down.

"Madam, may I take your pulse?"

A doctor cannot heal himself. Gu Nanzhi is so weak; He Mobai needs to take a look at her.

Gu Nanzhi stopped making excuses. She had originally wanted them to help her with the injury on her hand, since it was so difficult to treat on her arm. But at that time, she couldn't bear to take a shower first, and then she was too lazy to bother, so she treated it herself and went to sleep.

After carefully examining her pulse, He Mobai's thoughts turned slightly heavy. Gu Nanzhi's weakness wasn't just due to this backlash; she also had other health issues.

She must have caught a chill before, which would have made it difficult for her to conceive, especially since she was a woman.

However, this is not untreatable; with her medical skills, she could treat it herself, but there are no signs of any treatment...

While taking her pulse, He Mobai glanced at Gu Nanzhi a few times with a puzzled look. He was confused as to why she disregarded her own health, and he couldn't quite understand the relationship between Gu Nanzhi and Jun Yanchen...

Gu Nanzhi was certainly aware of her own body, and she didn't intend to hide anything from him when he took her pulse. Besides, she genuinely had no interest in the fact that being cold made it difficult for her to conceive. She herself hadn't even figured out what life was like, and she was confused when she came into this world, so why would she care about nurturing life?

Naturally, they stopped caring.

"What? Doctor He, you still can't figure it out?"

He Mobai withdrew his hand.

"Madam, you've worked so hard; you need to rest well now."

"Madam, this is a nourishing soup specially prepared for you. These are some light dishes that Physician Yihe instructed me to make, and they've been kept warm. Please try them."

Just then, Butler Li returned with the food.

"Um"

Gu Nanzhi was truly hungry; she hadn't eaten lunch and hadn't eaten anything until now. Under everyone's watchful eyes, she calmly drank the soup and ate something.

Finally, I felt a sliver of energy return to my weak body.

"Uncle Li, is there any soup left? Another bowl, please."

"Yes, yes, yes"

Butler Li went to fetch another bowl and came back. Seeing that his wife could eat, he was relieved. As long as a person has an appetite and can eat, it's always a good thing.

Gu Nanzhi drank one last bowl of soup and was finally satisfied.

"How is Jun Yanchen?"

"He's otherwise fine, but we don't know when he'll wake up."

"Okay, let him rest. Keep an eye on He Mobai, you guys."

Gu Nanzhi nodded.

"Bai Zang, have you gone to retrieve the items from the mountain?"

She was really eyeing those things. She did have some space, but it wasn't easy to explain, so she had no choice but to give up on them for the time being.

But it contains many precious things, like century-old ginseng, which is incredibly rare...

The lady who usually stays home has returned.

"Reporting to Madam, everything has been retrieved and is awaiting your instructions."

Gu Nanzhi was just hoping for it, but she didn't expect them to actually think of it and bring the items back. This increased her appreciation for Cang Ling even more.

That's so thoughtful!

"Great, otherwise all my treasures would go to waste!"

"Dr. He, Bai Zang, I need your help with something,"

Turning her head, Gu Nanzhi set her sights on the two like-minded individuals. She was tired and needed a good rest. With these two able-bodied people available to handle the processing of medicinal herbs, there was no harm in using them.

"Please speak, Madam."

"Well, now that those things have been retrieved, I'll need your help to process the medicinal herbs inside. Most importantly, there's a hundred-year-old ginseng in there, so you must process it carefully. If you ruin it, you'll have to pay for it."

Now it was the others' turn to be surprised. There were such good things in that basket? After all, it was something the madam had prepared; even with two people knowledgeable in medicinal herbs present, and with her still unconscious, they hadn't touched it.

Centennial ginseng?

The lady actually dug up a century-old ginseng?

this......

He Mobai and Bai Zang were both stunned. They had found many medicinal herbs in the mountains together, but what kind of luck was it that she encountered a hundred-year-old ginseng...

"Please rest assured, Madam,"

Since the person had already spoken, how could the two of them refuse? Besides, Bai Zang was trying his best to impress Gu Nanzhi so that she would agree to take him as her disciple.

"Um"

After the lighthearted conversation, Gu Nanzhi recalled the information she had obtained from the final interrogation of the two men. Her eyes lowered, revealing a hint of coldness.

"Cang Ling, do you know about the Blood Rain Sect?"

Blood Rain Gate?

Why is Madam suddenly asking about the Blood Rain Sect? The assassins this morning were from the Blood Rain Sect.

"Madam, the Blood Rain Sect is a top-ranking assassin organization in the martial arts world. This organization has no sense of morality and only cares about money..."

Cang Ling explained the organization to Gu Nanzhi in a deep voice, saying that they were ruthless and inhumane when it came to money, and that such an organization should not exist.

"Where is the Blood Rain Sect's lair?"

"The Blood Rain Sect has several branch strongholds outside the city, and its main base, Blood Rain Manor, is located on a mountain range within the capital's territory. It is said that Blood Rain Manor is heavily fortified, and other martial arts organizations that have tried to take its place have all failed..."

Blood Rain Manor, the secret service...

Ah......

"Alright, it's getting late, everyone should go back and rest."

After learning the information, Gu Nanzhi didn't respond. Instead, she changed the subject and went back to rest.

This left Cang Ling somewhat puzzled. The lady must have learned about the Blood Rain Sect from those villains, and was therefore trying to find out more.

However, he couldn't accept this loss either; daring to assassinate their master was a capital offense.

They all went back to rest, while Cang Ling and Bai Zang stayed to guard Jun Yanchen's room.

Gu Nanzhi returned to her room, then instantly entered her spatial dimension. After sleeping all afternoon and eating something, she felt much better.

She couldn't sleep either. Knowing her competitive nature, she felt she had to do something tonight.

So, in the dead of night, while everyone was fast asleep, Gu Nanzhi moved. With her pale face, she changed into new clothes and teleported to the long-unseen imperial palace.

She didn't know who was behind the assassination attempt, but ultimately she couldn't escape the power of the emperor.

They've all gone to Junlan, a border city. Instead of focusing on their rivals in the capital, these people are causing trouble for Junlan.

Since she didn't have a specific target to deal with, she decided to go for something big: blow up the entire imperial palace.

Imperial power, right?

snort......

A person who's angry won't think things through; they're just impulsive and straightforward.

Gu Nanzhi appeared in the Golden Palace, where the dragon throne sat high above, all for that position—to control the world, to control life and death...

The temptation is indeed great...
