When Su Ju saw the man in front of her, she instantly relaxed and fell to the ground with a thump. She panted heavily and her face flushed red as streams of sweat flowed down her temples.

Yun Xiang turned around in surprise. "Su Ju?"

Su Ju waved her hand as she gasped for air. "I … I'm fine. I'm just too tired."

Gu Jinzhu stared at Gu Yiqing's face, and even Gu Zhiyue shrank to one side, her face full of worry.

Gu Yiqing was helped to sit up by the servant girl. His palm was pressed against her back, but he didn't know what he did. Gu Zhiyue snorted lightly and her complexion unexpectedly improved a little.

Gu Jinzhu was excited and asked, "Third Uncle, is Rong ready?"

Gu Yiqing said, "It's fine for now. I used my inner force to protect her heart meridian, but the specific situation will have to wait until the doctor arrives."

Gu Jinzhu's heart rose again when he said that. She turned around and saw Su Ju and asked, "Have you invited a doctor?"

Su Ju shook her head, her face filled with guilt as she sobbed, "Miss, I can't leave the mansion without Madam's token. I'll go ask Madam, but she's taking a nap, and the old woman guarding the door won't let me in. I'm afraid Fourth Lady might not be able to hold on and found an old woman who knows some medical skills …"

Gu Jinzhu's eyes lit up as she looked at the old woman and said, "You know medicine?"

The old woman jumped in fright and quickly waved her hand. "This old woman only knows how to treat small illnesses that hurt her head. How could I know what Fourth Lady is doing? It was all Miss Su Ju who dragged this old servant here because she was too anxious."

As she spoke, she looked at Gu Yiqing and trembled in fear, afraid that he would punish her for her crimes.

Gu Jinzhu was disappointed. Just as she was getting anxious, attendant came in and wiped the sweat off his forehead. "Master, Imperial Physician Liu is here." As he said this, he lifted the curtain, and an old man carrying a wooden box walked in with big strides.

With a slightly plump figure and a round, fat face, he looked very friendly. The old man came in and respectfully bowed to Gu Yiqing.

That old man checked her pulse and the wound on her forehead. He heaved a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, San Ye protected the little girl's heart veins first, otherwise, it would be hard to say."

He took out a few pills from the medicine box and fed some water to Gu Yurong. He also took out a bottle of ointment and applied it to Gu Yurong's wounds. Finally, he took out a needle from the box and roasted it over the fire.

Everyone in the room was stunned, Gu Jinzhu was even more surprised. Gu Yiqing comforted her as if it was a common occurrence, "Don't be afraid, this is Courtmaster Liu from the Imperial Hospital. His medical skills are superb, Rong's wound is too big, and only seams can heal it better."

Gu Jinzhu nodded, staring unblinkingly at the needle in his hand.

The old man moved quickly. Within a few breaths, Gu Yurong's forehead was sewn shut. The old man tied a knot and took out a pair of scissors to cut off the thread.

Gu Yurong's forehead was no longer bleeding. The old man applied another layer of ointment on her face, then wrapped her with some gauze and said, "The patient is fine, it's just that she's lost a lot of blood, so her body's a bit weak these days. I'll try my best not to let her go.

He swiftly put everything into the medicine box, leaving behind the bottle of ointment on the outside. After saying goodbye to Gu Yiqing, he was about to leave.

Gu Jinzhu chased after him and said, "Elder Liu, please stop for a moment. I just want to ask, will fourth sister's forehead be scarred?"

The most important thing for girls was their looks. Although Gu Yurong was young, she was still cute and cute. It would be a pity if she had a scar on her face.

Courtmaster Liu raised his beard and said unhappily, "Such a large hole in his head, do you think it'll be completely alright?"

Seeing that Gu Jinzhu's expression had darkened, he pondered for a moment before saying, "However …" But there's one other way, which might help her avoid scarring. "

Gu Jinzhu's eyes lit up as she hurriedly asked him what he could do. Gu Yurong had happened in her yard. If she didn't recover completely, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

The old man said, "Do you know the secret medicine, Snow Muscle Cream, that came out of the palace? "That's the traditional Holy Elixir for the beauty of the palace. If you have a way to get it, your little sister might be able to get it."

Gu Jinzhu said anxiously, "Snow Muscle Cream? "Then how can I get it?"

Since it was a secret medicine from the palace, the first thing she thought of was Gu Bitong. She was doted on the most by Consort Shu, and there were also quite a few gifts from the palace.

If she could cure Yurong, she would have accepted it even if she had to go all out to beg. Who knew that the old man's next words would immediately extinguish her hope?

"Eldest Miss, it's best if you don't think about it. That medicine is a sacred relic of the palace. Besides the empress dowager, she doesn't even have the right to use it as a concubine. It's not easy to ask for this medicine …" the old man shook his head.

"Then what should we do?" Gu Jinzhu's eyes were full of pleas. Gu Yurong was so young, how could she bear to see her disfigured like this?

The old man hesitated for a moment, then suddenly nodded and said, "Go ask San Ye, maybe he has a way."

"Third Uncle?" Gu Jinzhu was stunned. Gu Yiqing didn't even have the right to use the secret medicine in the palace, how could he have a way?

However, the old man was unwilling to say another word. He carried the medicine box on his back and walked away while shaking his head.

When they entered the room, Gu Yurong had already woken up. However, she looked listless and spiritless.

She had just lost a lot of blood, so Gu Jinzhu did not dare move her. She just laid on her bed and instructed Xiao Cui to cook some porridge.

Seeing that Gu Yurong had calmed down, she heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did she remember that Gu Yiqing still had customers, but he had accompanied her for half a day.

After sending Gu Yiqing out, she sincerely said to him, "Thank you, Third Uncle. If it wasn't for you, I really wouldn't know what to do."

She slightly raised her head. The bright and beautiful autumn sunlight shone on her face. Her skin was so white that it was almost transparent. One could even clearly see the fine fur on the young girl's face.

He was very grateful to see that her clear eyes were filled with him.

Gu Yiqing couldn't help but feel an impulse from his fingertips. He rubbed her hair without thinking and said with a smile, "It's okay. If you need anything from me in the future, just take this."

He pointed to a pendant hanging at her waist. Gu Jinzhu lowered her head and saw a small, jade-white fish quietly hanging at her waist.

She stretched out her hand and picked it up, her face slightly flushed.

She had seen him play this beautiful music before. Unfortunately, she didn't know what this was and didn't know how to play it. She also didn't want to put it on the side, so she made a sound and hung it around her waist.
