Even when Zuo Qingluan was at her weakest, the empress dowager kept her gaze on Zuo Qingluan and showed no sign of letting her go.
Zuo Qingluan was so angry that she wanted to jump on Feng Wu and scratch her face.
But in the end, she clenched her fists and told herself, "Calm down, Zuo Qingluan. You're Feng Wu's descendant, and the royal family will beg you to marry Jun Linyuan. You'll be the final winner!"
At that thought, Zuo Qingluan finally swallowed her anger.
She said coldly to the empress dowager, "Concubine Oriole's internal injuries won't be easy to cure. There are many medicines in the world that can restore a person's recovery."
Terminal lucidity?!
The empress dowager was about to give up on Zuo Qingluan, but she perked up again when she heard that.
Zuo Qingluan said, "Yes, it's a temporary recovery, but her body will soon weaken at an alarming rate, and she'll die instantly."
That was the only way Zuo Qingluan could think of to bring Concubine Oriole back to life.
Because that was the best she could do, she had to put herself in Concubine Oriole's shoes and come to that conclusion.
The empress dowager looked at her suspiciously. "Is that so?"
Zuo Qingluan said, "It's very likely."
The empress dowager asked, "How are you going to prove it?"
Zuo Qingluan smiled. "It's very easy. I'll check Concubine Oriole's pulse and you'll know for sure."
Zuo Qingluan sounded so confident that even Emperor Wu was intimidated, let alone the empress dowager.
Concubine Oriole had been in high spirits, but her stomach lurched at Zuo Qingluan's words.
She turned to Emperor Wu for help.
The empress dowager said, "Check Concubine Oriole's pulse, then."
The empress dowager had to think about herself first.
If Zuo Qingluan's medical skills were better than Feng Wu's, she wouldn't have to worry about Feng Wu anymore. The empress dowager had had enough of that unruly girl!
Meanwhile, Concubine Oriole was carried out on a stretcher.
Cining Palace was the empress dowager's residence, and the empress dowager had been kind enough to allow Concubine Oriole to give birth here.
Lying on the stretcher, Concubine Oriole reached out and stared at Zuo Qingluan warily.
Right now, she trusted Feng Wu more than Zuo Qingluan.
When Zuo Qingluan's fingers touched Concubine Oriole's body, the latter's lowered eyes flickered with astonishment and her fingers trembled slightly!
What was going on?
Although Concubine Oriole's pulse was weaker than an ordinary person's, it was not that much weaker.
The pus formed by the dead Gu worm was originally extremely poisonous, but now … there was no reaction at all?
Could Imperial Concubine Li not be poisoned?
Or has the poison been cured? Who untied it? Feng Wu?
"What did you give her to drink? Give me the bottle. "Zuo Qingluan reached out to Master Chu.
Imperial Physician Chu asked, "Miss Zuo, how do you feel about Consort Oriole's health?"
Zuo Qingluan wanted to say that Concubine Oriole was going to die soon, but —
She couldn't lie through her teeth, could she?
Zuo Qingluan still wanted to poison Concubine Oriole, but to her dismay —
When she tried to insert another Gu worm into Concubine Oriole's body, that Gu worm refused to go in no matter what!
Fearing that she might expose the gu, Zuo Qingluan had to put it back into her body.
Not only was the Gu unwilling to enter, but it was also afraid …
Why are you afraid of Concubine Yan's body?
Didn't the previous Gu worm crawl in smoothly?
Zuo Qingluan was a little flustered.
The Gu worm was her trump card that she was proud of. With this trump card, she had secretly attacked many of her enemies, but now …
