After Gu Qingxue left, she first went to the imperial study. When Rong Xiaotian returned to the study, she immediately told him everything that had happened without a word missing.

Rong Xiaotian had come in a hurry, and he had not even changed out of his dragon robe. When he suddenly heard about this, he was shocked.

“Doctor Gu, do you mean that the prince regent might be disabled in the future? ” Rong Xiaotian’s face was extremely gloomy.

“I can’t be sure at the moment. Logically speaking, the Gu Poison shouldn’t affect His Royal Highness’ legs. This matter happened so suddenly that I still need time to think of a solution. However, don’t worry, Your Majesty. I will do my best to treat His Royal Highness.” Gu Qingxue stood in front of Rong Xiaotian and observed his expression as she spoke.

Rong Zhan’s sudden paralysis was a huge blow to Rong Xiaotian.

The reason why Rong Zhan was able to inherit the position of the prince regent was not only because of his unique views on politics, but also because he had fought on the battlefield in his early years and defeated the enemy’s army several times. He had created miracles several times when he was outnumbered. At that time, he was already known as the God of War when he was only in his early twenties.

Although Rong Zhan had retired from the battlefield and returned to the imperial court, his bravery and fighting skills were still well-known. Therefore, in the hearts of Rong Xiaotian and all the officials, Rong Zhan would always be the invincible God of War. If there was an incident at the border one day, Rong Zhan would definitely step in to save the situation.

However, all of this was based on the fact that Rong Zhan was not a useless person. If both of his legs were crippled, he would not be able to survive on the battlefield. This was a huge loss for Rong Xiaotian!

“Naturally, you’ll have to do your best to treat it. Doctor Gu, you can temporarily put aside the other things you have on hand. Your top priority is to do your best to treat the prince regent. In addition, no matter how many herbs or manpower you need, you can tell me. No matter what price you have to pay, you must cure the prince regent!” Rong Xiaotian said with a serious

Gu Qingxue quickly agreed, then continued, “Your Majesty, Gu Lingyue colluded with a Gu master, resulting in today’s tragedy. I think that if we can track down the person behind Gu Lingyue, it might be of great help to His Royal Highness’s illness.”

Rong Xiaotian agreed with a ‘hmm’. His eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty killing intent. “The other party injured the prince regent, so it can be seen that they have unfathomable motives. I will send people to investigate this matter in detail. You should first accompany the prince regent back to his residence. I will send someone to report to the empress dowager. In addition, this matter should not be made public. You can tell the public that the poison in the prince regent’s body has not been completely removed, so you are needed to serve in the residence.

“Yes.” Gu Qingxue nodded in agreement, then turned around and left the imperial study.

At the same time, in the prince regent’s residence…

Gu Lin had woken up at the crack of dawn and was rubbing his eyes.

In the past, he would always wake up at this time to read, and today was no exception.

After Gu Lin got up, he looked at his siblings who were sleeping on both sides of him. He reached out his hand and pinched their little faces. “Dumby, Lingbao, stop sleeping. It’s time to wake up and study.

Dumby and Lingbao were both groaning and lying on the bed, unwilling to get up. When they heard Gu Lin’s voice, they all shrank into the quilt at the same time.

Dumby raised his hand and wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve. “Big brother, can we take a rest today? I’m so sleepy.”

Lingbao simply lay on the bed and did not move. No matter how hard Gu Lin tried to wake them up, they did not plan to get up.

Gu Lin had no choice but to give up. He got up alone, washed up, and went to the study next door to read.

When Cui’er came to wake the three little ones up, she saw that Gu Lin had woken up earlier than her. He had put on his clothes and shoes and was sitting obediently in the study, reading.

“Eldest Young Master, you’re up so early. Didn’t this servant say that I would come over today to help you change? You always don’t need us to be your servants, making me feel like I’m slacking.” Cui’er looked at the sky. It was only bright now. Ordinary children would not be willing to get up at this time in the winter. Only their Eldest Young Master was so diligent.

Gu Lin put down the book in his hand and turned to Cui ‘er. “Sister Cui’er, I couldn’t fall asleep, so I got up. Second brother and little sister are still not awake.. I think it’s still early, so why don’t we let them rest for a while?”
