Gu Youyou knew that if she followed him, it would be like a lamb entering a tiger's den, but did she have any right to refuse?
Gu Youyou's face turned pale as she cast her only hope towards the contemptible Emperor, praying he would not agree. Maybe then there would still be a chance to turn things around.
At least to give Jin Zijin time to send a message.
Unfortunately, Emperor Jin Moning disappointed her. As if he had not seen the resistance in her eyes, he smiled and said to her, "In that case, Doctor Gu, please go and have a look. The State Preceptor's health is vital to the nation's lifeline and must not be neglected."
Damn your 'must not be neglected'!
The Emperor's words were like a decree; with both involved parties present, he had laid down the command, and Gu Youyou had no choice but to accept.
Huo Li smiled triumphantly and said, "Doctor Gu, thank you for your troubles, please!"
"I didn't bring my medicine box. May I return to Lin Residence to get it?"
