358 Quickly Go to the Village Chief’s House to Have a Look

After passing through the courtyard and opening the courtyard door, Gu Qingxue saw Hunter Zhang standing outside the door with an anxious expression.

Hunter Zhang’s eyes lit up when he saw Gu Qingxue.

“Hunter Zhang, why are you here at this hour?” Gu Qingxue looked at the sky and asked in puzzlement.

Hunter Zhang’s face was filled with anxiety, he hurriedly urged, “Doctor Gu, I beg you to quickly go to the village chief’s house to take a look. These few days, Prince Heng’s men have been guarding the village chief, so we have no chance to get close to him. These few days, the old village chief has not drunk more than three times…”

It was Gu Qingxue’s most basic requirement for the villagers to take medicine once a day. As long as the villagers could guarantee this, they could guarantee that the plague would not spread further.

The only bad thing about the medicine that she had developed was that the effect of the medicine was very short. It was best to drink it twice a day. If it was really impossible, they should drink it once a day.

However, once the number of times the medicine was taken was less than once a day, the suppressed illness would resurface again.

Seeing Hunter Zhang’s bewildered expression, Gu Qingxue comforted him patiently, “Don’t be anxious. Tell me what happened first.”

Hunter Zhang did not dare to hesitate. He quickly told Gu Qingxue everything that had happened.

In Tie Family Village, the old village chief was the leader of the group. Naturally, he had to report to Prince Heng and the others about the plague.

The poor old village chief was obviously suffering from the plague, but he still had to work hard to serve and take care of Prince Heng and his daughter.

This undoubtedly increased the burden on his already weak body.

In addition, he had always been by Prince Heng’s side to take care of them, so he did not have any chance to take medicine. Occasionally, he could drink some, which was far from what Gu Qingxue had requested.

After Hunter Zhang finished speaking, he anxiously stamped his feet. “Doctor Gu, please save me. I heard the guards talking about how the old village chief fainted during dinner tonight. When I went to ask around, I found out that the old village chief had been alone in his room. I wanted to go and take a look, but the guards stopped me and said that I didn’t know the rules. I had no choice but to ask Doctor Gu for help.”

Gu Qingxue could not help but sigh in her heart when she saw Hunter Zhang saying so much like he was pouring beans.

If it were not for Prince Heng and the others who suddenly came to interfere, how would things have developed to this point?

Her previous series of efforts were all for the villagers to suffer less. In the end, Prince Heng had only been here for a few days, and the old village chief’s condition had worsened.

“Is there a guard waiting at the old village chief’s house?” Gu Qingxue lowered her voice and asked Hunter Zhang.

Hunter Zhang nodded anxiously, “Yes. According to Prince Heng, the village chief is our leader, so he must set an example and be the first to keep a distance from Doctor Gu. Doctor Gu, is there really no way to drive them away? Before they came, we had been listening to you and taking the medicine you gave us. We didn’t think there was anything wrong with it!”

Gu Qingxue shook her head and said, “I’m sorry. With my strength, I’m not strong enough to challenge the prince. However, I’ll think of a way to send some medicine to the old village chief.”

Hunter Zhang was very grateful. He kept bowing to Gu Qingxue and thanking her, “Thank you, Lady Gu. We will never forget your great kindness.”
