were scattered searching for me. I dealt with one on the spot. I originally intended to tell you, but I ran into another one unexpectedly. So I thought, since they are looking for us in a dispersed ma..."Feng Lingxi thanks Pasha the physician for saving his life."
Pasha looked at Feng Lingxi's complexion and nodded in approval, "It seems like it's almost done, this is much faster than I imagined."
Feng Lingxi smiled, “Dr. Pasha…”
Just call me Pasha, there's no need for Doctor. I'm not a doctor from the Central Plains.
"Good."
Pasha greeted everyone to sit down for breakfast. After breakfast, Pasha said to the Fourth Princess, "Princess, I would like to have a private word with you. Would that be convenient"
"Just so, I also have something I want to ask Pasha."
Feng Ling Xi turned around and looked at Du Gu Cheng, "You wait for me here, I'll have a talk with Pasha."
"Guli, go prepare the medicinal water. Brothers Shangguan, please trouble yourselves to hunt some game. We shall have a good meal today."
Shangguan Huan nodded, looking at Dugu City, "Your Highness, would you like to join us"
Dugu City responded and left with Shangguan Huan. Feng Yu Mo stayed behind to help Gu Li decoct the medicine. After all, the amount was quite large, and it took time to prepare the medicinal herbs and boil the concoction.
Feng Lingxi followed Pasha to a forest not far from the wooden house. There was a patch of medicinal herbs planted by Pasha, with most commonly used herbs available. Though the quantity wasn't large, it wasn't small either.
"Fourth Princess, take a look at how these herbs I've planted are doing"
"Very good, Pasha. Since you are a Miaojiang Gu Master, could you tell me what kind of Gu poison I have been afflicted with"
Her memory hadn't fully recovered. Some things she had memories of, but wasn't sure if they were real, so she wanted to confirm with Pasha.
Has the Fourth Princess recovered all her memories
"Not yet." Feng Lingxi added, meeting Pasha's curious gaze, "Especially after my miscarriage due to poisoning, my memories are very chaotic. Some things and some words, I'm not sure if they are real."
"Today, after the medication, the princess's memory should have fully recovered."
Feng Lingxi nodded, hesitated for a moment, "Pasa, actually I have some memories. They are of people I've always considered good friends. After I had a miscarriage due to the poison, there were some things he said to me in my memory. I'm not sure if they are really mine."
"You can ask the King."
Wind Ling Xi shook her head, "My friend told me that the poison I was given was administered by Duke Gu's mother, and it was because of this poison that I suffered a miscarriage."
"The poison that caused your miscarriage is called He Ji."
Pash looked at Feng Lingxi, "The person who poisoned you is actually trying to save you. This worm is called 'Foolishness', a very powerful poison from the Miao region. For your illness, it can consume all the remaining toxins in your body when it forms, effectively clearing out the residual Gejiu poison within you. There are both advantages and disadvantages. If the person who poisoned you, like me, detoxified you yesterday, he was saving you. But if not, then they wanted to kill you."
Feng Ling's mind was filled with a blurry memory again.
"Pash, you saved me this time. If there's anything I can do to help, just ask."
Pasha bowed to Feng Lingxi and said, “There is indeed something that requires the help of the Fourth Princess. My daughter Gulli was poisoned. I have tried every means but couldn’t remove it. I hope the Fourth Princess can take a look.”
"You can't cure her poison"
Feng Lingxi was astonished. This poison could be cured, but the poison on her own daughter remained incurable.
"Gu Li's mother is from the Central Plains, and the poison on Gu Li is also from the Central Plains. I am a gu master from Miaojiang. I am not proficient in Central Plains medicine. Although I have been able to control her poison these years, I still can't cure it."
"What kind of poison is it"
Pasha shook his head. "This poison is quite strange. I don't know much about Chinese medicine, and because Guli and I have been on the run, living in hiding, I've only been able to study medicine myself. So, I haven't been able to determine what it is yet."
"Let me take a look for you later."
Pasha nodded happily. With Feng Lingxi's help, it was likely that Gulì's poison could be cured. At the very least, with her assistance, they might gain a deeper understanding of Gulì's condition.
"Pash, there's something I need your help with. Dugu City doesn't know that I already know about the Heqiu poison, so please don't tell him I do. There are some things about this I still haven't figured out."
"Is the Empress blaming the King"
Feng Lingxi shook her head, "My fate is like this. Even without a matchmaker, someone else might make a move. This time I was careless and didn't discover it until now. It seems I've been tricked."
"Then wait until tomorrow after your memory fully recovers, and then we'll talk."
Feng Lingxi said thanks and went back with Pasha.
Guli and Feng Yu Mo were looking for medicinal herbs to brew a tonic. Feng Ling Xi and Pasha returned, seeing the two chatting and laughing together. Feng Ling Xi stared at Guli. The young girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a pretty face and the unique charm of a Miaojiang woman. Her bright eyes seemed to speak volumes.
Her lips were red, her teeth white, and her complexion rosy. She did not look like someone who was poisoned.
"Looking at Guli like this, she doesn't seem to be poisoned at all."
"Indeed, she was perfectly normal during the rest of the year, but as the season changed from winter to summer, she would suffer through the torment of both scorching heat and freezing cold."
Freezing winter and scorching summer
Feng Lingxi narrowed her eyes, and Pasha nodded. "I don't know what's wrong with her either. I've tried every means to help her, but I couldn't cure her."
When were you poisoned Besides feeling hot and cold alternately, do you have any other symptoms after being poisoned
"Besides that, everything is fine."
Feng Lingxi frowned, this was unheard of.
"By the way, there's something very strange. Ever since she was poisoned, Gu Li's internal energy has become much deeper, and her martial arts skills are also much stronger than before."
"Is there such a strange poison"
Feng Lingxi walked towards Guli, and when Feng Lingxi saw Feng Lingxi and Pasha, Feng Yumo reacted first and hurriedly wiped the sweat from his brow and stepped forward, "Sister, Master Pasha."
"Yu Mo, you've worked hard."
Feng Yu Mo hurriedly waved his hand, “It’s not hard work. Besides, I didn’t do much either. It was all Gu Li doing. I just helped her out, nothing special.”
"Father."
After finishing her work, Guli ran forward to greet them, a radiant smile on her face, as bright as the springtime sunshine.
"Pasha, may I take her pulse"
Feng Lingxi asked, and Pasha immediately told Gulli, "Quickly give your hand to the Fourth Royal Princess, she will help you see how the poison in your body is doing."
"Father, I'm not poisoned, I'm fine, I..."
"Gu Li, are you poisoned"
Feng Yu Mo wore a look of astonishment. He had followed her for several days and hadn't noticed anything amiss with Gu Li, indicating that she might not be poisoned. Had they made a mistake
Feng Lingxi smiled faintly, "Just take a look. If it's not poisoned, that would be even better."
Gu Li reluctantly stretched out her hand. After Feng Ling Xi felt her pulse, she looked at Gu Li's sullen head bowed in discontent. The expression of grievance and helplessness made Feng Yu Mo beside her even more curious.
After a while, Feng Lingxi let go of Guli's hand. Pasha hurried to ask, "Fourth Princess, how is Guli's poison"
"She was not poisoned."
"No poisoning"
"There's no way, her poison..." not so great."That man just saved me, and I tried to greet him, but he ignored me.""Warm as jade, yet he remained silent. It wasn't his fault."Feng Linglong smiled, meeting Feng Lingxi's puzzled gaze...
