Chapter 593: Conspiracy

“No.” Gu Chaoyan answered without a moment of hesitation.

Pearl Poison could not be cured within a short period, even if Gu Chaoyan tried her best to perform the treatment day and night. What was more, she was worried that when she managed to cure the King, he was going to plan something terrible against her.

She was not a narrow-minded person, but that was what the King was like. This man did not care about his own daughter. He was a cold-hearted person, someone she should not trust.

She was not Zhao Yiqiu who had so many principles.

The King suddenly fell into sadness. “When will I be cured, then?”

“Pearl Poison is a kind of chronic poison. When you feel that you are under the control of the poison, then it basically means that your organs have already been affected. You need time before the poison can be removed completely. You are taking the medicine to start with, and then we will see how it goes.”

“…”

“According to the files that deal with Pearl Poison, it is said that no one gets detoxified, but dies slowly. You have a deal with me, so my medicine can guarantee that you live healthily for twenty more years. As for the complete detoxification… we shall see if we have time,” Gu Chaoyan said calmly.

The expression on his face turned sadder and weirder. He was going to live on medicine!

He had to find Destiny Monk, he had to do that!

That was what the King was thinking inwardly, but Gu Chaoyan did not care what he was thinking. She left the prescription and then added. “Just ask the staff at the hospital to make the medicine accordingly. I will ask someone to get the pills delivered to you every now and then.”

The King brought himself back when he heard Gu Chaoyan’s voice.

“You should do the delivery yourself. Also, will the staff at the imperial hospital notice anything through the prescription?” the King asked.

That he was poisoned should only be known to just a few people. The world would turn messy, if everyone knew about this.

“No.” Gu Chaoyan answered with determination.

The King let out a sigh of relief. ” Okay, you have to keep it a secret, or…”

The King had wanted to spill out some threatening words, but stopped himself. He was aware of what Gu Chaoyan was like – she was never threatened. So he stopped himself instead. She would not dare to do anything, after all, the Queen and Xunyang were still living in the court. She would not dare to make any fuss.

When he finished his words, the King asked Gu Chaoyan to leave the court.

The moment Gu Chaoyan left, the Empress Dowager struck the teacup onto the ground.

How dare she!

The King knew what his mother was like, so he consoled her. “Just tolerate her now. When we find Destiny Monk, we don’t have to listen to her any more.”

The Empress Dowager nodded her head.

Although they were not talking about Gu Chaoyan any more, the Empress Dowager still had some ideas about who drugged her son.

“You have to be careful about the Queen. I believe she drugged you! I never thought that the daughter from the Jiang Family had such an evil heart. She has done it in secret!” The Empress Dowager snapped angrily. She wished to skin the Queen alive when she thought that she might drug her son who had to suffer so much at the moment.

The Empress Dowager made the King feel somehow uncomfortable.

“Mom, that is not the case.” The King added.

The Empress Dowager glared at him. “Oh yeah? Have you got any feelings towards her now?”
