Chapter 395: Extremely Rich

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Due to Consort Yun’s poor health, Prince Yun had developed some medical knowledge over time. While he had encountered various medicines in the past, the ingredients listed in this prescription, such as “Dragon Marrow, Phoenix Blood, and Divine Wood,” were unfamiliar to him.

Moreover, just by looking at items like “Dragon Marrow, Phoenix Blood, Divine Wood,” listed above, he knew they were hard to come by.

Gu Qingluan said, “Prince Yun, do your best to find them. 1 can use the Primordial Gold Needle technique to control the aging of Consort Yun’s body functions. To cure her and rebuild her physique, that’s the only way.”

Prince Yun clutched the list in his hand, his gaze fixed on Gu Qingluan. “If we use the Primordial Gold Needle, how long can we delay it?”

“One year.”

Prince Yun didn’t hesitate and quickly called someone in, handing over the list and instructing them to collect the materials listed.

If these materials were gathered, Prince Yun would undoubtedly have to pay a hefty price, but he had no hesitation.

Gu Qingluan said, “1 need to start needling Consort Yun now, so please step aside.”

“Alright, alright!” Prince Yun nodded eagerly.

“Do you need assistance?”

Before leaving, Prince Yun asked this question.

Gu Qingluan knew that Prince Yun was worried, so she said one of the maids could stay.

Prince Yun left Consort Yun’s personal maid in the room to assist.

Gu Qingluan took out the Primordial Gold Needle and had the maid remove Consort Yun’s clothes.

She inserted the gold needle into various acupuncture points, and the llongmeng Qi permeated through the needle.

Ilongmeng Qi represented vitality, which was in direct contrast to the lifelessness within Consort Yun’s body.

When these two opposing forces met, Consort Yun, as the vessel, showed a painful expression.

The maid anxiously covered her mouth to prevent herself from making any noise.

She was quite sensible.

Seeing that she didn’t disturb her, Gu Qingluan’s brows relaxed, and the speed of her needling increased.

The Primordial Gold Needle was different from ordinary needles, and with the added power of llongmeng Qi, its effects were far greater than the sum of its parts.

When she finished needling, Consort Yun’s pale and dull face showed a faint blush, as if a touch of pink had emerged from the pale, wintry branches.

The maid covered her mouth, preventing herself from crying out.

How long had it been since she had seen Consort Yun look this good?

Ever since she had been by Consort Yun’s side, her complexion had always been paler than normal people’s. Her pallor was not the healthy l<ind but rather a cold, bluish-white that clearly indicated illness.

Prince Yun had consulted numerous renowned physicians, and even the palace’s imperial doctors had made regular attempts to improve Consort Yun’s health. However, none of their efforts had yielded satisfactory results.

This young lady had only used a few needles, and Consort Yun’s complexion had improved?

The image of Gu Qingluan’s needling process flashed in her mind again, and the maid felt that it was only natural.

She had seen other doctors use acupuncture before, but this was the first time she had seen someone use it so mysteriously.

The golden needle pierced into the acupoints, and the part exposed outside trembled slightly, as if alive, emitting a faint golden light, along with white smoke and black qi escaping from it.

Such a scene was something she had never seen in her lifetime.

Seeing Gu Qingluan using flames to sterilize the golden needle, the maid finally calmed down and asked in a soft voice, “Miss Gu, is it finished?”

“Yes.”

“Then, Consort Yun…”

“In about a quarter of an hour, she will wake up.”

The maid’s eyes suddenly became brighter than stars. “That’s wonderful! Thank you, Miss Gu! You are truly a miraculous doctor!”

Gu Qingluan chuckled.

This maid was indeed simple-hearted and kind.

“Please dress Consort Yun in her clothes to keep her from getting cold.”

The maid nodded and hurriedly helped Consort Yun get dressed. Then, she couldn’t wait any longer and went to open the door to deliver the good news to Prince Yun.

After Prince Yun entered, he nodded at Gu Qingluan and hurriedly looked at Consort Yun.

When he saw Consort Yun’s complexion, he was slightly stunned and suddenly remembered the first time he had seen Consort Yun.

At their first meeting, Consort Yun’s body had been somewhat weak but not as bad as it was now.

During that time, Consort Yun had appeared fragile and exquisite. It was love at first sight.

However, after Consort Yun gave birth to Xiao Jingye, her health took a noticeable downturn. Her skin grew paler and lost its natural color. Prince Yun didn’t feel repelled; instead, his heartache for her deepened.

He pitied her and cherished her even more.

He hoped that one day, his consort could be like a normal person, not falling ill and bedridden so frequently.

Looking at Consort Yun’s rosy complexion now, a glimmer of hope suddenly arose in Prince Yun’s heart.

“Miss Gu, I will gather the medicinal ingredients as soon as possible, and 1 will implore you to treat Consort Yun when the time comes.”

Gu Qingluan nodded. “Since I have taken on this task, 1 will do my best. You need not worry, Prince Yun.”

Prince Yun heaved a sigh of relief.

Afterward, he instructed someone to fetch the money.

Gu Qingluan said, “I haven’t cured Consort Yun’s illness yet.”

“If you can make Consort Yun’s condition improve, avoiding the torment of illness in the near future, you have already fulfilled the task. You should rightfully receive ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts. When you help Consort Yun rebuild her physique later, 1 will provide you with another consultation fee.”

Ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts was undoubtedly a substantial sum.

Only a noble like Prince Yun, with vast wealth, could afford it.

Gu Qingluan remembered that Prince Yun wasn’t just a royal prince; he also controlled several valuable mines, making him incredibly wealthy.

Consequently, she saw no need to be overly polite with him.

Gu Qingluan accepted the ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts as her consultation fee and took her leave.

Prince Yun asked with some concern, “May i know where Miss Gu is staying, and how can 1 contact you?”

“In the Jun Residence, Tianjing City. I am Gu Qingluan.”

“You are Gu Qingluan?” Prince Yun looked surprised.

Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow. “Am 1 that famous? Even Prince Yun knows me.”

Prince Yun said, “I’ve heard a bit about you, but there seems to be a significant difference between the rumors and the reality.”

Considering the immense size of the Cloud Plains Continent and the fact that Gu Qingluan wasn’t exceptionally talented, her reputation should have been relatively confined. At most, it might have been known within Chengyuan Country. It shouldn’t have gained widespread recognition.

However, it was an unfortunate coincidence that the Gu family had produced Gu Lingxue, who had risen to prominence at the Qiankun Academy, becoming a prominent figure in the Cloud Plains Continent. This had inadvertently brought Gu Qingluan, the supposed “waste”, into the limelight.

Unfortunately, one was known as a genius, while the other was labeled as useless.

The rumors about the Gu family’s First Lady not only painted her as a waste but also accused her of lacking shame, engaging in illicit relationships, and getting pregnant before marriage. However, looking at the young lady before him, how could she be considered a waste?

If she were considered a waste, then there were probably very few people in the whole world who weren’t considered waste.

It seemed that the other rumors were likely baseless as well..
