Anyone afflicted by this love curse must either remove it within seven days or engage in sexual intercourse with the person who cast the curse; otherwise, the afflicted person will die.

Seeing this, Song Zhili finally understood why Cui Xiaodie was so fearless; it seemed that she was the one who had to break free from this curse.

Song Zhili didn't believe that this was the only way, and that method wouldn't completely remove the Gu worm; the Gu worm was still inside He Chengjing's body.

Song Zhili and Xia Momo saw these, but the explanation of the love curse was not the solution. The two continued translating, both of them very seriously.

"Ah Li, I've got it! There's a solution here, look quickly!"

Xia Momo saw a passage about how to cure Gu worms and excitedly pointed to it, asking Song Zhili to come and take a look.

Upon hearing this, Song Zhili leaned closer to look and saw that there were two solutions written on it. One was to use the Gu King to enter He Chengjing's body and consume the love Gu in his body, which would solve the problem. The other was to use several special medicinal herbs to make a very small pill, prick He Chengjing's arm, and place the pill on his arm.

After that, just wait for the love bug to crawl out, and then use a container to catch the bug.

After reading what was written, Song Zhili and Xia Momo realized that only the second method was usable. Since she didn't have any Gu worms, Song Zhili quickly grabbed paper and pen and wrote down all the medicinal herbs needed.

Song Zhili doesn't know if this method will work, so she can only try it out as a last resort.

After finishing writing, Song Zhili took the paper out of the space and handed it to Qingzhu. "Qingzhu, go and find all the medicinal herbs on this for me. Be quick."

Qingzhu took the paper from Song Zhili, nodded, and quickly left. After Qingzhu left, Song Zhili saw Qingshuang standing at the door. She went up to her and asked, "Qingshuang, is your injury healed? Let me take your pulse."

"Mistress, my injuries have healed a lot and I'm fine now."

As Qing Shuang spoke, she stretched out her hand and placed it in front of Song Zhili.

Song Zhili stepped forward to take her pulse, and indeed, as she said, her injury had healed by more than half.

She then withdrew her hand. "Hmm, that's good. Continue taking the medicine for another seven days, and you'll be fine. By the way, has anyone come to the yard these past few days?"

"Yes, the princess comes every day. When she learns that the mistress is in the room, she stays for a while and then leaves. The prince also came yesterday, asked a few questions, and then left."

Song Zhili nodded, knowing that the two women were also worried about He Chengjing. At the same time, she was quite touched that they came, asked a few questions, and then left without bothering her at all, which showed that they trusted her completely.

Song Zhili didn't return to her spatial dimension. Instead, she sat in the courtyard waiting for Qingzhu to bring the medicinal herbs. While she was waiting, Qingshuang, worried that Song Zhili might be hungry, went to the kitchen and brought her a bowl of shredded chicken noodles.

"Madam, you must be exhausted these days. You've lost weight. Please eat something."

Looking at the shredded chicken noodles in front of her, Song Zhili was indeed hungry. She picked up her chopsticks and started eating. When she was almost finished, Song Zhili asked Qing Shuang to bring her another bowl.

As soon as Qing Shuang nodded and left, Mu Liuxin brought He Mengling over. When He Mengling saw Song Zhili sitting in the courtyard eating noodles, she immediately ran towards Song Zhili, "Sister-in-law, you came out today. I heard everything from my mother. Is my eldest brother alright?"

With red eyes, He Mengling ran to Song Zhili and sat down next to her, looking at her with misty eyes.

She didn't know He Chengjing had an accident before. She hadn't seen Song Zhili for several days, so she thought she would come to Song Zhili's courtyard to play with her. On the way, she met Mu Liuxin, who was also coming, and the two of them came together.

On the way, Mu Liuxin briefly told He Mengling about He Chengjing, asking her not to bother Song Zhili for the next few days. Unexpectedly, she saw Song Zhili in the courtyard today. Mu Liuxin went over and waited for Song Zhili's reply.

Seeing the expectant looks on their faces, Song Zhili could only sigh helplessly. "I have found a method, and I have asked Qingzhu to help me find the medicinal herbs. Whether it will work or not, we do not know yet."

When He Mengling and Mu Liuxin heard Song Zhili say this, their joyful expressions vanished instantly. Mu Liuxin, in particular, had gone to Cui Xiaodie's courtyard a few days ago to interrogate her, and was told that to cure He Chengjing's illness, he had to have intercourse with her.

Mu Liuxin knew her son quite well. If he were to be with Cui Xiaodie, and He Chengjing woke up, he probably wouldn't be able to bear it. He might rather die than be with Cui Xiaodie.

She even pressed Cui Xiaodie to tell her if there were any other methods besides that one, but Cui Xiaodie insisted on that method and said there were no other options. Mu Liuxin was also very anxious these past few days, but being anxious was of no use.

She had been coming to see Song Zhili every day for the past few days, and today, when she heard Song Zhili say that there was a solution, a little hope was rekindled in her heart.

"Your Highness, if this method doesn't work, we can have Cui Xiaodie come again. We can't just let A-Jing die like this."

When Mu Liuxin heard Song Zhili say these words herself, she could understand that Song Zhili must love He Chengjing to say such things.

"Hey, Ali, don't put too much pressure on yourself. It's okay, there are still a few days left."

Mu Liuxin comforted Song Zhili, not knowing what else to say. Just as she finished speaking, Song Zhili saw Qingzhu return. She immediately stood up and took two steps towards Qingzhu, asking, "How is Qingzhu? Have you found all the medicinal herbs I asked for?"

Seeing so many people in the courtyard, Qingzhu stepped forward to greet them, but Mu Liuxin also stepped forward and said, "No need for greetings, just answer Ali's question."

Hearing Mu Liuxin say this, Qingzhu nodded and then handed all the medicinal herbs in his hand to Song Zhili, "Mistress, all the medicinal herbs you need are in here, everything is there and nothing is missing."

Hearing Qingzhu say this, Song Zhili was overjoyed and smiled as she accepted the medicinal herbs from Qingzhu's hands. "Alright, alright, Your Highness, Mengling, please make yourselves at home. I'll go inside and prepare."

Just as Song Zhili was about to go back to her room, she saw Qing Shuang carrying a bowl of noodles, so she went over and took the bowl of noodles with her.

When Mu Liuxin and He Mengling saw Song Zhili enter the room again, there was nothing they could do to help, so they said to Qingzhu, "If your master wakes up, send someone over to let us know."

"Yes."

Qingzhu bowed her head and responded, watching Mu Liuxin and He Mengling leave before standing guard at the door again with Qingshuang.
