The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 357

Chapter 357: 190 Conclusion (Second Update)

The wound was deep and wide, and the dagger was dirty. Gu Jiao had to clean the wound thoroughly, leaving the flesh turned inside out.

The scene was unforgettable for a lifetime!

Because the wound was too close to the heart, Gu Chengfeng couldn’t help but feel like he could see his brother’s throbbing organ. He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination.

Gu Chengfeng’s hands and feet turned cold!

Gu Jiao then began to stitch the wound up, one stitch at a time.

Gu Chengfeng lay weakly on the rattan chair like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. He wanted to close his eyes, yet he felt it would be cowardly!

...

He saw the flesh being torn apart by the needle and thread, he heard the sticky and creaky sounds, he felt faint!

Looking at Gu Jiao’s calm and composed face, one might even mistake her for sewing clothes!

When Gu Jiao finished the last stitch, Gu Chengfeng fainted straight away.

For quite some time in the future, he would probably be forced to be a vegetarian.

Gu Jiao stepped out of the room.

The day was breaking, Xiao Liulang was cooking breakfast for the family, while Gu Changqing was pacing nervously in the living room. Seeing Gu Jiao, he tensed up: “How is he?”

“Here, take it.” Gu Jiao, holding the dagger that was pulled from Gu Chenglin’s body in a cloth, handed it to Gu Changqing.

Gu Changqing didn’t want the dagger, but he accepted it as it was the weapon that had harmed Gu Chenglin.

Gu Jiao said, “We’ve saved his life for now, but he’s still in critical condition. He won’t be really out of the woods until he’s awake and doesn’t show any signs of infection or adverse reactions over the next three days.”

The next three days would be critical, Gu Changqing understood and asked Gu Jiao: “So where does he…”

Given the risk, he couldn’t be sent back to the Marquis Residence. The imperial physicians weren’t proficient enough, and more importantly, Gu Changqing had never seen most of the strange items that Gu Jiao used.

Even the imperial physicians would be at a loss.

Gu Jiao thought for a moment and said, “Send him to the Medical Hall. I’ll be there during the day, and I’ll have Doctor Song on night duty.”

Doctor Song was an apprentice of the senior doctor of Huichun Hall in the county town. He was trustworthy and had learned some medical skills from Gu Jiao, knowing how to use her medicines.

Gu Changqing: “Alright, we’ll do as you say.”

Gu Jiao borrowed a carriage from the local wine shopkeeper next door.

Gu Changqing carefully lifted Gu Chenglin into the carriage.
