The Prince Regent Is Powerful, And My Mommy Is Expecting Again!-Chapter 161 - 161 Can I Still Be Saved?
161 Can I Still Be Saved?
The man seemed to have been waiting for Gu Qingxue here for a long time. After getting off the carriage, he bowed to her, βMiss Gu.β ππ―πeπeπ―π·πΌπeπ.ππΌπΊ
Gu Qingxue immediately recognized that this man was the attendant of Imperial Duke Zhan. βWhere is the Imperial Duke Zhan? Bring me there to have a look.β
What was the status of Imperial Duke Zhan? The deputy general would naturally be able to resolve the issue of the morale of the army being scattered. There was no need for Imperial Duke Zhan to personally take action.
It was just an excuse to help Imperial Duke Zhan leave the manor.
The attendant quickly nodded his head. After inviting Gu Qingxue to board the carriage, he hurriedly drove the carriage toward a private residence in the west of the city.
In order to conceal her identity, Gu Qingxue entered through the back door of the private residence. Very quickly, she was led by the attendant to meet Imperial Duke Zhan.
In the room, Imperial Duke Zhan had changed from his previous energetic appearance. His face was deathly pale, and even his breathing seemed extremely weak.
It was not until he heard Gu Qingxue enter the room that he raised his eyes. βMiss Gu, Iβve been waiting for you for a long time.β
Gu Qingxue observed Imperial Duke Zhan. βIt seems that the Imperial Duke Zhan has been following my instructions and hasnβt taken any medicine for the past few days.β
Imperial Duke Zhan laughed bitterly. βIt was also because I didnβt take any medicine to maintain my health that I was afraid of being exposed in front of Yiβer, so I had no choice but to find an excuse to leave the house. βLogically speaking, today is Yiβerβs last day of treatment, so I should be by her side.β
βDonβt worry, Imperial Duke Zhan, everything is as usual. The most important thing now is to treat your injuries first, Imperial Duke Zhan.β Sitting by the side, Gu Qingxue extended her hand to check Imperial Duke Zhanβs pulse.
Gu Qingxue took a closer look at Imperial Duke Zhanβs condition, and could not help but frown.
Imperial Duke Zhanβs condition was actually more serious than she had imagined.
He had been on the battlefield all year round, so there were many wounds on Imperial Duke Zhanβs body. Many of them were hastily treated, and there was no cure for them.
Improper treatment of the wounds could possibly affect his recovery, and there were so many wounds on Imperial Duke Zhanβs body, and each of them had left a bit of a scar. It had accumulated over time to this day, and naturally, it would cause his body to become weak.
βMiss Gu, thereβs no need to worry. Even if it canβt be cured, thereβs no harm,β Imperial Duke Zhan comforted when he saw Gu Qingxueβs grave expression, βIβve said it before. Iβve seen many doctors. They all said that it was because I had suffered too many injuries when I was young that my meridians and bones had not fully recovered. Over time, it caused my Qi and blood to be obstructed. My body had accumulated too much medicine that had not been absorbed and blood statis. This had affected my body, and it was very difficult for me to recover.β
It was not that Imperial Duke Zhan had never met a doctor like Gu Qingxue.
In the beginning, they had all vowed that they would be able to cure him. However, after confirming his condition, they would give up.
Therefore, before he asked Gu Qingxue to treat him today, he did not have much hope.
βItβs not that I donβt have a way. Itβs just that my treatment method will be very painful for Imperial Duke Zhan,β Gu Qingxue said with a grave expression.
Hope rekindled in the eyes of Imperial Duke Zhan. βDoes this mean that I can still be saved?β
βYes. The doctors that Imperial Duke Zhan had seen were right. Imperial Duke Zhan had been weak because he had not fully recovered from his injuries for many years. The only way to solve this situation was to release the blood stasis and let all the wounds that had not recovered fully heal,β Gu Qingxue explained with a grave expression when she saw Imperial Duke Zhan was puzzled, βThat is to say, I want to cut open all the wounds that the duke seems to have healed, release the blood stasis, and resuture the wounds. Only after these wounds have healed can the imperial duke recover.β
