“This is my private matter. Please forgive me for not being able to answer,” Gu Qingxue continued indifferently, “Imperial duke, the Madam needs acupuncture on time. Should we go back?”
“No need. I can’t let an unknown person treat my wife’s injuries. Eldest Miss Gu, please go back.” Imperial Duke Zhan clapped his hands, and the coachman outside the carriage stopped the carriage.
“I practice medicine, and I always finish what I start. Imperial duke, the imperial duke’s manor may be very good, but I, Gu Qingxue, don’t like disputes of power and I have no intention of clinging to it. Otherwise, I could have agreed to become your wife’s adopted daughter yesterday,” Gu Qingxue said coldly.
Not letting her treat Madam’s illness meant that he was stopping her from earning points. She could not tolerate it no matter what!

In fact, he was only worried that Gu Qingxue had other motives and would hurt his wife’s heart. He did not mean to make things difficult for her.
Moreover, this little girl was too stubborn. He was determined to kill her prestige today so that she would not offend someone she should not ‘t offend in the future.
Gu Qingxue narrowed her eyes coldly. “If I really have other motives, I should tell the Madam about the recurrence of the old injuries in the imperial duke’s body, and not be played by the Duke today.”
“How, how did you know...” Imperial Duke Zhan looked at Gu Qingxue in disbelief.
He had never told anyone about the relapse of his old injuries, not even Yi’er!
However, Gu Qingxue had only met him twice, and yet she could see through the abnormality in his body. It was truly surprising.
Gu Qingxue pretended not to see the sudden change in his expression and got out of the carriage.
Seeing this, the imperial duke’s heart tightened. He hurriedly ordered his men, “Quick, stop her.”
The secret guard who was driving the carriage outside immediately chased after Gu Qingxue. He stretched out his hand, wanting to catch her.
However, before the secret guard could even touch a hair on Gu Qingxue’s body, she turned around and shot out a silver needle.
The silver needle entered the back of the secret guard’s hand. The poison spread out and instantly numbed his entire arm.

Cold sweat broke out on Imperial Duke Zhan’s forehead uncontrollably.
Once Gu Qingxue spread the news that his old injury had relapsed, it would be troublesome.
Not only would it shake the morale of the army, but more importantly, his Yi’er would definitely be extremely worried about this matter.
Her health had just improved. How could he bear to let her worry about him again?
“Eldest Miss Gu, it was my bad attitude just now. Please wait a moment, Eldest Miss Gu. I’m willing to apologize,” Imperial Duke Zhan said sincerely.
Gu Qingxue acted as if she did not hear him and continued walking forward.
Fortunately, the carriage came to an empty street and there were no other passersby around, Imperial Duke Zhan said loudly, “Miss Gu, I didn’t mean to offend you. “I haven’t told my wife about what happened just now. If she knew, she would be so worried that she wouldn’t be able to sleep at night. Seeing that my wife treats you sincerely, I hope that you won’t tell anyone about it.”
Gu Qingxue then stopped and turned to look at Imperial Duke Zhan, “Imperial duke, this is not the place to talk. Why don’t we go somewhere else to talk about it?”
Although there was no one here, they were still on the street. Perhaps the walls had ears.
