Chapter 207 Heartfelt words
"Your Highness has been looking quite well lately. Has your illness flared up today?"
It had been a while since Xue Ruanruan had treated Murong Xun, and he hadn't contacted her on his own initiative, so she had almost forgotten about him.
"Since taking Miss Xue's medicine, I haven't had a relapse for many days. However, there are only a few pills left in the bottle of medicine that was given to me last time, and I haven't had time to look for Miss Xue yet."
When his illness was mentioned, a smile appeared in Murong Xun's dark and deep eyes.
In the past, I would have an attack every now and then, and each attack felt like I was half dead, and it was unbearable.
Especially since the beginning of winter, the frequency of attacks has increased, to the point that it happens almost every few days.
Fortunately, he met Miss Xue, which finally brought him some peace and quiet. Since taking the pills she gave him, he has never had a relapse.
Murong Xun felt a sense of respect for Xue Ruanruan.
"The pills only temporarily suppress the activity of the Gu worms in your body; they do not fundamentally solve the problem. Your Highness must not be careless."
"Miss Xue is right. When will the poison in my body be cured?"
He desperately wanted to get rid of the poison in his body from the root. If it were that simple, he wouldn't have suffered so much pain and torment.
Aside from the legendary healer, only Miss Xue could cure it. If she didn't detoxify herself, how could the poison in her body be eradicated?
"The toxins that have accumulated in Your Highness's body over the years have not yet been completely removed, and various bodily functions have been greatly damaged. We'll talk about it after Your Highness has recovered his health."
He was fed poison from a young age and later subjected to Gu poisoning. If it weren't for Murong Xun's good fortune, he might have died long ago.
"it is good"
"Your Highness, take this bottle of medicine. Take one pill daily, just as last time. Do not take more, and do not miss a dose. Remember this."
Xue Ruanruan pretended to take out a porcelain-white jade bottle from her sleeve and place it on the table in the study, feeling a little heartache.
The pills that Murong Xun took not only required various precious medicinal materials, but were also extremely difficult to refine, and had very high temperature requirements, so they could only be stored in jade bottles made of warm jade.
She wouldn't have given it away for nothing if it weren't for the fact that he had saved her life.
"How much silver?"
"This is a gift from your humble servant to Your Highness; I will not accept payment."
One thing at a time. She would never shortchange him on the money she was owed for selling the spatial resources, but she absolutely refused to accept the money for the pills, which were to repay his life-saving grace in her previous life.
"Why are you bestowing upon me such a precious elixir?"
Murong Xun couldn't quite understand Xue Ruanruan. He felt that the woman in front of him was unpredictable. She was meticulous and calculating in some aspects, but incredibly generous in others.
"Your Highness is busy with countless affairs of state, devoting yourself wholeheartedly to the country and its people. I deeply admire you and wish to do my part."
Xue Ruanruan spoke without batting an eye.
Murong Xun stared at the woman's face with a half-smile, the corners of his mouth turning up.
If I hadn't caught the fleeting hint of guilt in her eyes, I probably would have been fooled by her.
However, he did not expose her lie, and replied in agreement, "In that case, I will accept it without ceremony."
"It is a blessing for the people and the General's Mansion that His Highness is in good health. Only when His Highness is well can everyone be well."
Xue Ruanruan spoke earnestly and sincerely.
"Thank you for your affirmation, Miss Xue. I have my own understanding of the affairs of the court, so there is no need to worry too much."
Murong Xun thought Xue Ruanruan was referring to the fact that Xue Yan was being attacked by civil officials in the court, so he reassured her.
