Chapter 1973: Continue Looking (3)
Naturally, Long Siye agreed to help Gu Xijiu with treating Yun Yanli’s injury. After talking for a bit, Gu Xijiu allowed Yun Yanli to meditate to facilitate his recovery while she went out to prepare the ingredients. Long Siye followed her and helped her.
"Xijiu..." Long Siye was finding it hard to say what he wanted to say.
Gu Xijiu took a glance at him. "Yup? You may speak frankly. There is no need to beat around the bush with me."
Long Siye was surprised by her frankness. He went straight to the point. "Do you think Your Royal Highness Yun’s words are trustable?"
Gu Xijiu mused and tilted her head upwards to look at him. "What are you suspicious about?"
Long Siye replied, "I somehow feel that this is too much of a coincidence. It feels awry. Do you not find it suspicious at all?"
Gu Xijiu muttered under her breath. "It is not that I have not found it suspicious. In fact, I suspect that he is the mastermind behind the young palace master... However, I have examined his injury, and it seemed more like a long-term injury. His legs were also paralyzed by poison. He had traces of drugs in his body; that should be caused by taking too many medicinal drugs. The poison had entered his veins, and this could only happen after a matter of three to five years. Had this only been deceit to ask for my sympathy, it would not be this way."
