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

She had previously taken Jun Yanchen's pulse briefly and analyzed his blood; the results piqued her interest. Considering the use of internal energy yesterday morning, she proactively suggested that if he wanted an antidote, he could contact her.

Besides, she had already received her consultation fee, so since Jun Yanchen was now offering to treat him, she naturally wouldn't refuse.

However, if someone wants her to help, they have to trust her. Otherwise, if she has doubts even after using some medicine, she doesn't like patients like that.

"Do you believe me?"

Their eyes met, each trying to glean the answer they sought from the other's gaze.

"letter"

Jun Yanchen firmly expressed his trust, even though they had only known each other for three days and she seemed to have a secret. For some reason, Jun Yanchen felt an urge to trust her.

Furthermore, he knew his own body well. Over the years, Bai Zang and He Mobai had gone to great lengths, yet they still ended up like this.

The two have new information now, and He Mobai has led a large group to search for that medicinal ingredient, but they are not yet entirely confident of success.

Now that things have come to this, regardless of whether Gu Nanzhi's medical skills are helpful to his physical condition,

Since she brought up this idea, he was willing to cooperate with her.

How bad can it get?

Gu Nanzhi's eyes flashed with surprise at his word "trust," even though she liked patients who trusted and obeyed her.

But this is not the same as her past life. Back then, she was renowned as a poison doctor, and a single pill she produced could fetch tens of millions at auctions.

She was currently unknown, and faced with Jun Yanchen's unwavering trust, she felt a surge of joy and satisfaction. This feeling of being trusted was quite comforting.

Her joy was evident on her face, and the corners of her mouth curved into the most beautiful smile.

"Great! Don't worry, since you've chosen to trust me, I definitely won't let you down."

Since the other party has placed their trust in her, she naturally won't squander that trust; isn't that exactly what she's good at?

He continued, "Jun Yanchen, you should have someone with decent medical skills helping you suppress the poison in your body, right?"

Although it was a question, the tone was one hundred percent certain;

Her confident demeanor seemed to offer hope; while Bai Zang's medical skills were decent, He Mobai was even better.

He Mobai hails from the Valley of Divine Physicians, receiving personal instruction from the Valley Master, the Divine Physician. He is known outside the Valley as the "Little Divine Physician."

But these two people, over the years, have actually helped to suppress the poison in his body. Combined with his own powerful internal energy, this has allowed him to endure for so many years.

However, the poison had already corroded Jun Yanchen's internal organs, causing his body to deteriorate day by day. If he could not find a cure, he would not live much longer.

Being poisoned has one advantage: it has boosted Jun Yanchen's power to a certain extent. However, this has also led to the rapid depletion of his body by the toxins over the past year or two.

Yes, there is.

"Not bad, the two of them do have some skill," Gu Nanzhi nodded slightly, commenting to the physician who had been following Jun Yanchen. But she only received a simple "not bad" in return; her tone changed the next second.

"But compared to me, they're still a bit lacking; they haven't been able to detoxify after all these years."

Give me your hand.

After speaking, Gu Nanzhi stretched out her right hand, palm up, and placed it on her right leg;

Jun Yanchen seemed confused by the sudden change in action, looking at Gu Nanzhi with a hint of doubt.

"Taking the pulse"

She could only say two more words. Since she had nothing else to do, she wanted to take a closer look at Jun Yanchen's physical condition. There was one thing she needed to confirm.

Jun Yanchen understood, hesitated for two seconds, and then extended his hand towards Gu Nanzhi, but did not place it directly on Gu Nanzhi's hand or leg.

This is out of respect for Gu Nanzhi; men and women are different, and this should not be touched upon lightly.

Moreover, she did not marry him willingly, so he should respect her even more.

Jun Yanchen's mindset and rules were applicable to this dynasty, but Gu Nanzhi's body housed a soul from a different era, so the rules regarding the separation of men and women were not as strictly enforced.

At that moment, all she wanted was to take his pulse properly, and since there was nothing to cushion her, she took Jun Yanchen's wrist and placed it on her knee.

He casually placed his fingers on Jun Yanchen's pulse, noticing that Jun Yanchen seemed a little stiff. He assumed it was because the other was nervous about his medical skills.

She also whispered a word of comfort.

"Don't be nervous, relax. Actually, I'm quite capable. Who knows, if you choose to believe me, I might really be able to save you. In that case, I'll be your savior."

Jun Yanchen was indeed momentarily tense and stiffened by her sudden movement, especially since his wrist was currently resting on her knee. He felt awkward for a moment, but not at all averse to it.

Her voice was truly beautiful, and now, seeing a different side of her—a delicate face carrying a unique seriousness—coupled with her soft, gentle voice, Jun Yanchen's initial awkwardness gradually eased.

At this moment, he was not concerned about his physical condition, but about the person in front of him;

This sudden movement caused not only a moment of awkwardness for Jun Yanchen himself, but also for Cang Ling, who had previously shown foresight by giving up space.

He chose a spot where he could barely see the actions between his master and his wife.

He immediately tensed up when he saw his wife grab his master's wrist.

After all, while other young masters from noble families and princes were at an age where they had many wives and concubines, his master was the only one who was never seen within a meter of him.

There wasn't a single maid or nanny serving her in the entire household. Some women had tried to get close to their mistress before, but all their efforts were in vain; some were even thrown out...

The master never showed any mercy to women in this regard.

At one point, he even suspected that his master had homosexual tendencies, but he later discovered that this was not the case; his master simply disliked women getting close to him.

Just a moment ago, he was afraid that his mistress would be thrown away by his master with a single force.

But this anxiety and tension turned into astonishment a few seconds later.

His master simply placed his hand on his wife's leg without any sign of displeasure or anger.

He even kept staring at the lady?

???

Is this still the same master who was indifferent to women?

So it's not that the master is indifferent to women, it's just that he's rather unique and hasn't met anyone he likes yet. Does he prefer someone like his wife?

No one noticed Cang Ling's inner turmoil, and he dared not make any move, but his eyes were still staring in astonishment at the scene before him;

Jun Yanchen also quietly stared at the serious-looking Gu Nanzhi.

This time, Gu Nanzhi's pulse diagnosis took a little longer, and her facial expressions changed subtly.

Two or three minutes later, she slowly withdrew her hand, then turned her head and looked Jun Yanchen up and down.

Jun Yanchen seemed caught red-handed, a flicker of unease crossing his face. He quickly withdrew his hand, hiding it beneath his sleeve, his fingers unconsciously rubbing together a few times.
