Bai Zhi sighed and said: “Yes, he did make mistakes back then, and I hated him at that time, but he also paid the price for it and endured 3 years of imprisonment. And when he was in Liu County, he saved Chu Yan’s life. If it wasn’t for him, Chu Yan would have died. What’s more, the reason why he became like this time is that he went to the Western Regions to find medicine for Chu Yan. In terms of emotions and reason, I can’t just sit idly by.”

Dongfang Mu’s heart softened. In the morning, he also saw Song Lang from a distance. This boy was completely different from three years ago. As if he had changed from a different person, without the sharp edges and sharp thorns that wrapped his body. The hardships for the past three years have worn him down.

That kid, he was a high-spirited and confident person back then.

“Okay, you can go, but you are not allowed to live there, lest people gossip. You must always remember your identity. It is difficult for Chu Yan in the court now, and you must not cause him any more trouble.” Dongfang Mu said.

Bai Zhi nodded again and again: “I know, don’t worry.” After Bai Zhi finished speaking, she asked Xiao Qing to get the medicine box, and the two hurried out of the mansion.

In Qingfengyuan

Bai Zhi and Xiao Qing rushed to the study, Song Lang was still lying unconscious on the ground, his face was frighteningly pale.

Xiao Qing helped him up, while Bai Zhi went to feel his pulse. She was stunned as soon as she pulled his hand out of his sleeve.

His hand was thinner than what she saw in the Dongfang Family Mansion. Now, it was completely like a skeleton.

She doesn’t need to feel his pulse, she can see the beating frequency of his pulse with the naked eye.

His pulse was very strange, fast and slow, and his heartbeat was the same.

But she couldn’t find any symptoms, it was just a deficiency, as if it was a pure deficiency.

But it was impossible to be just pure deficiency.

She took a silver needle to prick Song Lang’s acupuncture point and woke him up from his coma.

Xiao Qing doesn’t know medicine, so she may not be able to tell some things clearly, so it would be quicker to ask Song Lang directly.

Song Lang woke up. His body was a little cold, and his lips were blue and black from the cold.

Xiao Qing hurriedly helped him sit back in the chair with thick velvet cushions, and fetched the fur hanging on the screen stand, and asked the servants to burn two pots of charcoal and bring them over.

Bai Zhi handed him a cup of freshly brewed tea, and asked softly, “How are you?”

Most of the pain in Song Lang’s body has receded, and the cold sweat on his forehead no longer broke out. Seeing that Bai Zhi was brought by Xiao Qing, he sighed for a long time and said: “I didn’t want to tell you, but who knows that this girl actually ——” As he spoke, he glared at Xiao Qing, but he didn’t blame her too much. Xiao Qing also had good intentions, she just didn’t understand his heart.

After Song Lang drank two cups of hot tea, the blue and black color of his lips improved slightly. Bai Zhi asked: “What’s going on? You look like this, I’m afraid it’s not as simple as being poisoned.”

“And that Hulifei Na, who is she?” Xiao Qing didn’t quite understand what she said, and she was also confused.

Song Lang said: “Hulifei Na is a woman I met when I was in the Western Regions. At that time, I was bitten by a local poisonous snake. She saved me. She also gave me the medicine that can cure Chu Yan’s poison.”

“Since she saved you, why did she want to harm you?” Bai Zhi was puzzled.

Song Lang shook his head: “Don’t ask, it’s my fault for not being careful. That’s all there is to it. Maybe it’s my fate, so don’t worry about it, just go back.”

Bai Zhi said: “Song Lang, you went to the Western Regions because of me, and now you’re like this, you told me to leave? Do you think I can do it?”

Song Lang replied: “It’s useless for you to care about this matter. This is not an ordinary poison. It’s a Gu, a Love Gu. Unless I get on good terms with her, this Gu will eat me up and turn me into a pile of dead bones.”
