A wooden basin and a pot of warm water were quickly brought to the study.
Looking at these two things, He Bucai and Su Rou had no idea what Zhang Xiaozu wanted to do.
But Zhang Xiaozu quickly gave them the answer.
Zhang Xiaozu picked up the kettle and poured a bowl of water, handed it to He Bucai, and said, "This is for Her Royal Highness to rinse your mouth. Brother He, please help pass it to him later."
"Okay." He Bucai took the water bowl.
Zhang Xiaozu then picked up the wooden basin and said to Su Rou: "Your Highness, please sit on a chair for a while. If you have abdominal discomfort later, just vomit it out."
"Everything will be as ordered by the young master." Su Rou nodded slightly, showing no signs of nervousness at all.
On the contrary, He Bucai became more and more nervous, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
He suddenly felt that he was too hasty and reckless, and thought about what if the pawn was unreliable and something went wrong with Su Rou?
He subconsciously wanted to call Zhang Xiaozu, but found that Su Rou was exceptionally calm, and instead gave him a look of relief, as if he were a patient.
Su Rou's calmness made He Bucai stunned, and he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
Zhang Xiaozu moved to Su Rou's right side and motioned Su Rou to stretch out her right hand.
Su Rou did as she was told.
"I'm offended." Zhang Xiaozhu pretended to use his right hand, making a gesture of grabbing Su Rou's wrist, and said he was guilty.
"Yes." Su Rou nodded and responded gracefully.
Zhang Xiaozu grabbed Su Rou's wrist, but there was no skin-to-skin contact, but through Su Rou's sleeves.
He held Su Rou's wrist, mainly because he was afraid that when Su Rou was removing the poison, she couldn't help but struggle in pain. Otherwise, it would be okay to stay a few inches away and not touch Su Rou.
The power of the ghost pupils overflowed from Zhang Xiaopou's fingertips, and then penetrated into Su Rou's body.
In the eyes of the Ghost Eye Artifact Spirit, the poison in Su Rou was vulnerable. In her words, there was a bug in Su Rou's body, and she could just use the power of the Ghost Eye to get rid of it.
Su Rou felt a cool feeling penetrate her wrist, and then traveled up her right arm at a very fast speed, went into her abdominal cavity, and hit her lower abdomen.
Su Rou's cheeks were slightly red, but the next moment she frowned because a pain like a knife suddenly arose in her lower abdomen. However, when she bit her silver teeth, she didn't even make a sound.
"Princess, you don't need to hold back. Just scream out if it hurts. You can relax and it won't affect the expulsion of the poison." Zhang Xiaozhu said.
"Okay." Su Rou responded, but she did not shout. However, it could be seen from her pale face and the beads of sweat on her forehead that she was enduring great pain.
"Madam, just shout out if it hurts. There is no shame in it." He Bucai hurriedly stepped forward and held Su Rou's other hand. The way Su Rou endured the pain made him feel heartbroken.
"Don't worry - ugh - wow -"
Su Rou just wanted to say "don't worry", but her stomach suddenly surged violently. She quickly bent down and opened her mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood at the wooden basin on the ground in front of her.
I saw two fat, blood-red worms, one inch long and about the thickness of a little finger, caught in Su Rou's mouthful of blood and spit them out into the basin.
These two fat insects have rounded tails and pointed heads, with a white dot on the head, which looks like a one-eye. There is no mouth and nose under the eye, but they have a sharp mouthpart like a mosquito.
The fat insect seemed to be greatly frightened, rolling and squirming violently in the basin, and even made a squeaking scream, which was very creepy.
He Bucai and Su Rou were so frightened that their hair stood on end and they had goosebumps all over their bodies.
Especially Su Rou, she was even more frightened when she thought that these two disgusting bugs had been parasitic in her body for four years and fed on her essence and blood every day. Her face turned as white as paper, and at the same time, her stomach was filled with nausea. The vomiting didn't stop.
It wasn't until he vomited everything in his stomach that he finally regained his breath and hurriedly asked He Bucai for water to rinse his mouth.
Although Zhang Xiaozhu was mentally prepared in advance, he was shocked when he saw this disgusting insect with his own eyes.
Seeing that Su Rou had stopped vomiting, Zhang Xiaopou said to He Bucai: "Brother He, have these two Gu insects burned. You must not bury them hastily, let alone feed them to animals."
"Yes." He Bucai nodded and immediately went to call the servants outside the door, instructing them to get rid of Gu Chong and Su Rou's vomit.
Su Rou stood up and walked a few steps, and was surprised to find that she didn't feel any discomfort in her body. She didn't even feel any pain in her lower abdomen. She couldn't help but be surprised by Zhang Xiaozhu's clever methods.
She was well aware of the horror of Gu worms, especially since these two Gu worms had been parasitizing in her body for four years. Logically speaking, they had become embedded in her flesh and blood organs and were extremely difficult to separate.
But it only took Zhang Xiaozhu a few dozen breaths to force the poison out of her body. Apart from the initial pain, she felt no pain at all after that.
This made her feel very incredible.
You know, even if you pull out the roots and stab them out, it will still hurt for a while.
"Thank you for your rejuvenation magic to save the lives of the slave family. I will never thank you for your kindness. In the future, if you need help from the slave family, just ask. The slave family will go through fire and water without hesitation." Su Rou thanked Zhang Xiaozu with a big gift.
When He Bucai saw Su Rou thanking Zhang Xiaozu profusely, he knew that Su Rou's health was no longer serious. He couldn't help but feel happy, and immediately thanked Zhang Xiaozu and said, "My dear brother, you are so kind to me for saving your life. I and my husband are deeply grateful!"
"What you're saying is serious, what you're saying is serious!" Zhang Xiaopou quickly returned the greeting and said, "It's a small effort, nothing worth mentioning!"
He Bucai and Su Rou exchanged glances, and stopped being polite to Zhang Xiaozhu. They would discuss how to thank Zhang Xiaozhu tonight or some other time.
"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang, how do you need to take care of your body next?" Su Rou asked Zhang Xiaopou.
Zhang Xiaozhu scratched his head when he heard this and said: "I think it's enough to replenish the body by eating something that nourishes the essence, nourishes the blood, and calms the mind. I'm not sure. You might as well go to the pharmacy and ask an old man who is proficient in health preservation. But - "
Zhang Xiaozu suddenly changed the subject, his expression and tone became serious.
"But what?" He Bucai was suddenly startled.
Zhang Xiaozu met the eyes of He Bucai and Su Rou and said, "But it's best to find out first how the princess was poisoned? Was it an accident, or was someone trying to kill the princess?"
As soon as these words came out, He Bucai and Su Rou's eyelids twitched at the same time.
Su Rou then looked at He Bucai.
He Bucai's heart skipped a beat and he didn't dare to hesitate for a moment. He shouted angrily: "Check! Check to the end!"
He knew that Su Rou was looking at him to ask for his opinion. How could he dare to hesitate to ask for his opinion on such a matter?
He hesitated, then said that the person who bewitched Su Rou was most likely related to him, and he wanted to harm Su Rou.
Why did he want to harm Su Rou?
There are so many things going on here, it’s scary to think about it.
Even if it has nothing to do with him, if he shows hesitation, indicating that he doesn't care about Su Rou's safety, then Su Rou will definitely feel sad.
And just now he insisted on letting Zhang Xiaozu help Su Rou get rid of the poison. Su Rou's compromise was a huge concession.
Respect is mutual, Su Rou respects him, and he also needs to respect Su Rou.
After all, Su Rou is a princess, not an ordinary girl.
He Bucai's determination made Su Rou feel warm in her heart.
She didn't ask for much. As long as He Bucai cared about her and cherished her, she would be satisfied.
But if He Bucai couldn't even give her this, she would be really heartbroken.
"My dear brother, is there any way to find out who caused the poison?" He Bu asked Zhang Xiaozu.
Zhang Xiaozu shook his head and said: "I only have ways to drive away the poison, not to investigate the case, but I can go to your residence and check it for you. Maybe I can find some clues."
Su Rou's face suddenly darkened when she heard this, and she said in a cold voice: "Master, what you mean is that there may be poison eggs in the items that the slave family comes into contact with?!"
She neither fights nor robs, is neither jealous nor jealous, but whoever dares to harm her and her family should not blame her for drawing her sword.
It’s not like she, Su Rou, has never killed people before, and she has also done so cleanly.
"I'm not sure, but it's always reassuring to check." Zhang Xiaozu responded.
"What Young Master Zhang said is true, then I'll trouble you to take a trip." Su Rou saluted.
He Bucai's face was gloomy, and he was angry and confused. He thought about it and couldn't think of anyone who would harm Su Rou.
