Chapter 431: One Herb Short

his place is surrounded by mountains on all sides, it's quite a geomantic treasure, cheap for him."Soon, they had dug a hole and wiped the sweat from their brows. One of them used his sleeve as a fan...Chu Tianqi shook his head sadly. He never imagined that the kind-hearted person who wouldn't even hurt a cat or dog would become so selfish and even cruel. Did they get her wrong, or was she always like this

Xiao Yufu was speechless for a moment, but she still wasn't convinced: "She, she fell down and nothing happened, while I lost an eye." She still didn't think it was her fault.

"You should be grateful that Ge'er is still alive. Otherwise, over a hundred people in the Xiangfu, including you, would have died that day!" Chu Tianqi knew that if Ge'er had fallen from the city wall and died that day, with Qian Tingxuan's temper, he would definitely have buried the entire Xiangfu with her!

“She's only acting so arrogant because she has the power of the Prince behind her! What if one day, the Prince is no longer there to protect her What will she have left to be so haughty!” Xiao Yufu remained unconvinced. She always believed she was better than Xiao Yuge in every way. Originally, everyone liked her and stood by her side. However, Xiao Yuge had somehow charmed them all overnight, making them turn towards her instead.

She is worth us protecting her!

Xiao Yufu glanced at him, letting out a cold snort: "Is that so Brother, I remember you never liked her from childhood to adulthood. But ever since she returned from Lizhou, Ge'er changed, and so did you. Even Si Chen brother changed. What exactly has she done to you all"

She was a loyal and selfless person, always willing to put her life on the line for anyone she cared about. As Chu Tianqi reminisced about their past, his heart ached even more for Ge'er. He had overlooked her throughout her childhood, yet she never held any resentment. Time and again, she risked her own safety for him. He owed her so much, a debt that he feared would take a lifetime to repay.

"Brother, do you really think she's kind She is playing with everyone's feelings, even that prince, she is deceiving him. Wake up, she is not as good as you imagine." Xiao Yufu couldn't stand to see them all speaking so well of Xiao Yuge.

“Have you ever seen someone use their own life to play with other people’s emotions Even if she were truly manipulating everyone, using such a life-protecting deception, then we would all willingly be deceived by her. Fu'er, don't use your thoughts to defame her, Ge'er is the purest and most innocent person in the world!” It's a pity that he understood it too late!

“You’re beyond saving! Do you really think she'll look at you differently if you gouged out one of her eyes She won't even care about your life or death!” Seeing him defend Xiao Yuge like this, Xiao Yufu was so angry her face turned green.

“Things I do willingly, there’s no need for her to care. Besides, even if I gave her my eyes, it wasn’t all for her. My parents raised me, so by doing this, I’m just repaying their kindness. ” Perhaps in a short time, he would leave the Xiangfu, because he didn't owe the Xiangfu anything anymore.

Xiao Yu Fu saw his stubbornness and gritted her teeth. She smiled coldly: "Brother, perhaps you'll be with her very soon."

"What are you going to do" Chu Tianqi immediately panicked upon hearing this.

“Brother, you should be thankful to me. I’m doing this to help you. Now that Ge'er has a noble prince by her side, she naturally looks down on you. If one day, the prince disappears from her life, or if she loses everything, then brother can comfort her well and surely win her heart back!”

"Fu'er, I advise you not to hurt Ge'er's heart. Otherwise, it won't just be you, but the entire Xiangfu that will be implicated!" Chu Tianqi was startled. He didn't expect Fu'er to still want to frame Ge'er. He knew too well Qian Tingxuan's love for Ge'er. If Fu'er really hurt Ge'er, then Qian Tingxuan would really send everyone in the Xiangfu to the execution ground!

"Brother, rest assured, let me tell you, she was once my sister too, she won't die." It's just a matter of exchanging blood for a new life. I shouldn't need to take that wretch's life, but even if I truly did take Ge'er's life, what could be done She doesn't believe that even the unrestrained King would be crueler than the Emperor.

Chu Tianqi pointed at her, finally clenched his fist tightly, and glared fiercely: "You better not hurt Ge'er, otherwise, don't blame me for not considering our sibling relationship!" After finishing, he turned and left.

Xiao Yufu immediately followed with, "You're not even siblings, what kind of sibling affection is there!"

Hearing this, Chu Tian's foot suddenly stopped, and he slowly turned around. His lone eye was chillingly cold, looking somewhat frightening: "What did you say"

"I..." Xiao Yu Fu was indeed taken aback by his appearance.

Chu Tianqi stared coldly at her for a long time, his jaw clenched and twitched. When he looked at his mother who was still unconscious on the bed, the hand he had tightly gripped slowly relaxed ......

He owed Xiao Yufu nothing, nor did he owe the Xiao family anything. However, lying on the bed was his foster mother, a foster mother who had always treated him like her own flesh and blood. He couldn't let her be heartbroken.

Finally, he endured in silence and left there.

"What Soul leaving syndrome!"

When Xiao Zhan finally managed to summon the Imperial Physician, the latter's words left him dumbfounded: "Excuse me, Imperial Physician, what exactly is this Soul-Severing Syndrome Is there a cure"

The national master feigned hesitation for a long while before saying, "This state of being out of one's soul is actually what everyone knows as getting possessed, madam. These past few days, you must have encountered something when you went out, which caused this."

The maid pondered for a moment before suddenly remembering: "That day, madam went to the market and as she passed by the temple street, something flew out from inside the temple and startled her. Madam almost fell then and ever since that day, back home, she's been like this. It must have happened at that time."

"No wonder," the National Master stroked his beard, looking as if it all made sense now: "Humans have three souls and seven spirits. The three souls refer to the Heavenly Soul, Earth Soul, and Life Soul. Lihun Syndrome is when the Earth Soul leaves the body. If it's not treated in time, losing two of the three souls means there's no hope left!"

"Does the Grandmaster have a solution" Xiao Zhan, beside him, became anxious.

"Please, Master Guoshi, save my mother! As long as you can save her, I'm willing to pay any price!" Xiao Yufu also knelt down and pleaded, secretly exchanging glances with the Master Guoshi.

"My lady need not be so troubled. Since this national teacher knows about the Soul-Separation Sickness, naturally, I know how to cure it. It's just that this sickness cannot be cured by ordinary medicines and stones, therefore..." The national teacher deliberately paused in his speech.

"I wonder what difficulties the National Teacher is facing" Xiao Zhan, upon hearing that the National Teacher could cure his wife's illness, was naturally eager.

"Actually, treating this soul-separation syndrome isn't difficult, the difficulty lies in a single ingredient..."r, as the empress, second only to the emperor, she still had to bear it."Your Majesty, the matter between my servant girl and the Crown Prince, my servant girl has already explained it to him. Now my...
