Coming Kingly Son-in-Law: Don't Provoke the First Daughter - Chapter 179

Chapter 179 The Fire
But her own skin was so hot that she almost instinctively screamed aloud the moment it touched the fire.

The originally white skin was burned directly by the fire, she rushed out like crazy, Gusu Ryou had long been ready outside, a hand pulled her over, and then with a kind of ball movement, rolled down the mountain.

After the court lady left the fire, the whole tightly tensed string finally collapsed, she closed her eyes, all the time then rolled to the bottom of the mountain, good thing at least Gusu Liang was awake, they were stopped by the withered tree branches, by this time they were already very close to the bottom of the mountain, she lifted up her eyes and saw that the fire on the mountain was spreading with a very fast speed, she had to take the court lady with her right away, not far from the bottom of the mountain there was a river, the river, in the winter, was already frozen. had frozen over and dried up without much water left, but this was their only chance.

Gusu Liang had used all her strength to drag Court Lady Gu to the river’s edge, she was already at the end of her tether, and now she was carrying someone with her, and after bringing her to the river’s edge, she turned her head to look at her.

She was in bad shape, her entire outfit was shredded, and if she hadn’t been wearing a lot of clothes in the middle of winter, she’d probably have been unclothed on this trip.

Gusu Liang collapsed to the ground in exhaustion, but he couldn’t help but still turn his head, probing Gu Qiang’s nostrils with his own hand, which didn’t have much strength, and feeling her slight, but still even breathing, he was finally relieved.

She didn’t even dare to think that if Court Lady Gu died here today herself, what face she had left to live in this world, and she thought that if she probed Court Lady Gu’s nostrils and found that she was dead, she’d immediately cut her own throat on the spot.

After resting for a long time, she was finally slowing down, the mountain fire was spreading more and more, it had already burned to the bottom of the mountain, because of the fire house caused by the leaves, and even the trees were burning in the end.

What kind of fire was this, it was simply astonishing and frightening, she straightened out Court Lady Gu’s clothes, took out everything in her arms and placed it on the ground, rummaged through the medicines that Gu Huai’an had prepared for her, and then after rubbing all of Court Lady Gu’s injuries, she fed her some more medicine before she was finally at ease.

Her body was worse than expected, especially where her calves were, which looked completely burned and blistered.

Gu Huai’an inevitably wouldn’t know what was going on over here. How would he know that Court Lady Gu could burn this mountain with a single fire? Naturally, he hadn’t prepared to ask for scalding medicine, but compared to this scalding scar, the fact that Court Lady Gu was now unconscious was the hardest thing to do.

She found some more food and water from her backpack, which had not fallen off her body despite being in such a violent flight and movement.

After taking two bites of dry food, the food was really good, and his body immediately gained strength after eating it.

After organizing everything and reloading it into her backpack, she looked at the Blood Recovery Herbs that Court Lady Gu had placed in her arms, these medicines were what Court Lady Gu had fought so hard to get, she had to bring them back properly.

She placed those grasses back in her arms, carried Court Lady Gu on her back, and walked downstream along the river.

After walking for about half a day’s light, they finally arrived at that Hongzhou, if they followed the road, they could walk directly to the capital, but their horses were still in Hongzhou, and it was even closer to Hongzhou.

A lot of people have already gathered at the bottom of the mountain, they are shaking their heads and sighing as they look at the mountain fire, some of the old people are crying out directly, pointing at the fire on the mountain and saying, “God is punishing us, we did the wrong thing, everyone should just hurry and move away.”

Gusu Liang walked past these people with Court Lady Gu on her back, all of them were silent, thinking that the two of them, Gusu Liang and Court Lady Gu, were simply like devils, and if they weren’t mistaken, these two women had come down from the mountains, right?

Of course no one thought that one of these two women was responsible for the hill fire.

I just think that these two girls are really blessed with a great life, nothing happened like this, of course, I can see that these two girls also almost didn’t have a life, and they can come out from there, so it’s like picking up half a life.

They all looked at these two people, but Gushu Ryou walked past these people without a single expression.

At night, finally arrived at the poison doctor’s courtyard, Gusu Liang by that time was no longer relying on her body, but on her consciousness, she just mechanically walked forward, at the entrance of the poison doctor’s courtyard, finally fainted.

When the poison doctor’s attendant went out, he saw Gusu Liang and Gu Qiang, who had fainted in the doorway, and hurriedly called for someone to carry them in.

When Court Lady Gu woke up, it was daytime, she was bandaged in many places, and her burns were coated with herbs, the pain was a burst of pain, not heart-breaking pain, but a kind of pain that could not be ignored and was always hidden.

As she sat up with clenched teeth, a waiter immediately came over and, after carefully looking at her, asked with concern, “Miss, are you feeling physically uncomfortable?”

Court Lady Gu shook her head and turned her head to look at just the same attendant who had brought her up the mountain to see Xiao Han Taki before, this attendant was in his mid-twenties, middle of the road, and at a glance, he knew that he was an honest man.

“Where is the person with me?” Court Lady Gu thought of Gusu Liang at once, she didn’t know how long she had been unconscious, and she didn’t know how Gusu Liang had saved her, she was really worried about Gusu Liang.

That attendant then said, “The girl is better to worry about yourself, that Miss Liang’s condition is much better than yours, she was just too tired and slept for two days and then she was fine, whereas the injuries on your body, there are burns and burns and scratches, and a lot of blood.”

Anyway, at least she survived!

She then thought of the most paramount thing, where was the Blood Returning Herb that she had risked her life to bring back?

She rose with a jerk, and felt her head spin with this movement.

The attendant was startled, and after going up to hold her in place he said, “Girl, you can’t do that when you’ve hit your head.”

After helping her back onto the bed, someone came in from outside with medicine in their hands, and said while opening the door, “Miss Gu, the medicine you’re taking this time is all my hard work, and it’s all money, so you’ll have to settle these accounts with me clearly.”

The person who came was the Poison Doctor, who had a smile on his face as he brought the medicine to the table, and then sat down on a chair, crossing his own legs and looking smugly at Court Lady Gu.

Court Lady Gu nodded her head, money was something she had, but to thank someone for saving her life wasn’t it?

“I’ve brought back the Blood Returning Herb, can you help me perfect that prescription?” Court Lady Gu then asked expectantly.

The poison doctor who had been sitting over there stood up at once, then looked at Court Lady Gu with great disbelief.

“That mountain is already on fire, and there is a big fire on the mountain, so why haven’t you asked Xiao Han Taki for it? She brought back a lot last time, she came to my side to inquire about you, and she had quite a few on her at that time.” The poison doctor then said.

As soon as Court Lady Gu’s mind turned, she smiled awkwardly and said, “Xiao Han Taki said she didn’t have one and gave us a piece of paper to follow.”

The Poison Doctor tsked and lowered his head to think carefully, still unable to figure out why Xiao Han Taki why he was doing this to Court Lady Gu.

According to the memories of the poison doctor, these two people are not intertwined, Xiao Han Taki is not the kind of person who is very selfish, as long as it can be saved, want to save, will try.

There were even times when she was a woman who liked money and would do things for it.

It’s about living, and no one will look down on her, or even think she’s sassy.

Even a cynical man like the Poison Doctor was respectful of Xiao Han Taki without selfishness, not pleasing her because she was a woman, just appreciating her style of doing things.

He couldn’t figure out how, so he turned his head to look up and down at Court Lady Gu, then asked, “Did you offend Xiao Han Taki? Otherwise she wouldn’t have made things difficult for you.”

Court Lady Gu walked down slowly, her movements labored, but she still held on.

“I only found one plant, that mountain has been destroyed, it’s unlikely that I’ll be able to find it if I want to, so help me settle the cost of this medicine, I’m going back.” After saying that, he held onto the wall and stood up.

The Poison Doctor was completely at a loss for a moment as to why Court Lady Gu was leaving, but still nodded, and after the attendant went out to settle the bill and closed the door behind her, the Poison Doctor said, “Miss Gu, I really don’t have any Blood Returning Herbs here either, but this prescription you take back, if Xiao Han Taki is willing to give you some Blood Returning Herbs, that would be best, but if she’s not willing to give it to you, there’s nothing that can be done about that, and the things that she decides to do is not going to change.”

Gu Qiangcheng coldly laughed in her heart, the good impression she had on this Xiao Han Taki in her heart was completely gone, if it wasn’t for the fact that Xiao Han Taki had once saved her life, she wouldn’t have had the slightest bit of goodwill towards her.

But Gu Qiang this person is also generous, others do not help themselves, that there is nothing to complain about, people help is sentimental not to help is this, they have what qualifications to complain about people.

But she also wanted to know why Xiao Han Taki was doing this to himself?

Did she do anything wrong? Not to mention the fact that it was the first time she and Xiao Han Taki had met, could it be that because she was a county princess, she didn’t thank her after she saved her life?

If she saved the county princess, the royal family should indeed have some indication, but now the royal family’s situation is not optimistic, she is nominally a county princess, but in fact, she is only the first daughter of the Gu family, expecting to rely on the rescue of her to make a fortune, that’s just a dream.

Gusu Liang walked in from outside and pulled out a packet of silver from inside the bag, placing it on the table and said to the Poison Doctor, “That’s all the money I have on me this time, if it’s not enough, there are still two pieces of jewelry that can be pressed or a couple of silver tickets. Which one do you want?”

The poison doctor looked down at the bag of silver on the table, a rough estimate is also to be more than a hundred taels, just let Gu Qiang pay the medical bills is just a joke, did not think that Gu Qiang actually took it seriously.

He pulled out a helpless smile and didn’t reach for the money, but turned his head to look at Court Lady Gu.
