Chapter 733: Chapter 727: What Illness Will Madam Lu Have?

Jin Zijin bitterly smiled, "There’s nothing much about it, it’s a matter that can’t be concealed forever. When he’s confused, he listens to no one, and always sneaking into Beijing is not a solution. Therefore, this time he came, he did not have someone deliberately hide it."

Gu Youyou: "..." She didn’t know what to say anymore.

"Alright, I will be careful."

...

On her way to Beijing, Gu Youyou was intercepted by a young woman dressed as a maid.

Recalling Jin Zijin’s warning from the night before, she didn’t get off the carriage but only opened the carriage window.

"Miss, what do you want?"

The girl was apparently tired from running, panting heavily. It took her a while to catch her breath.

"Doctor Gu, I knew you’d be on this road. The servant... has finally caught up with you."

Gu Youyou: "..."

"Whose maid are you?"

"Oh, Doctor Gu, I am a maid from the Lu Family. I had the audacity to stop your carriage today because there was no other choice." The little maid said in a rushed manner, seemingly remembering something sad, and began to choke up with tears.

Gu Youyou comforted her softly, "Are you talking about General Lu’s family?"

"Yes!" The maid hurriedly nodded.

Is it that General Lu who married a tomboy? What was Madam Lu looking for her for? Medical consultation?

Gu Youyou said, "Don’t rush, take your time to speak."

The maid slightly bowed, dried her tears and then slowly began to explain.

"My madam has been to Jisheng Hall many times looking for Doctor Gu, but she never found you. We tried to deliver messages to the Lin Family, but each time Madam Lin sent a servant to brush me off and never let me see Doctor Gu. I had no choice but to find out that Doctor Gu goes to the Imperial Palace every few days. So I came here to wait."

After speaking at length without getting to the point, Gu Youyou felt somewhat speechless.

"Then why are you waiting for me?"

The maid said, "Please, you must treat my madam. She’s waiting for you in Jisheng Hall right now, Doctor Gu. I’ve heard that only you might be able to cure her illness... you must go, please..."

Gu Youyou, busy on her way to the Imperial Palace, could have ignored the maid or waited until she returned to treat Madam Lu at Jisheng Hall.

But driven by a curious gossiping heart, she couldn’t help but want to see for herself. What exactly was wrong with Madam Lu?

Whenever Madam Lu stepped out, her stunning presence naturally brought gossip along. It wasn’t until Gu Youyou arrived at Jisheng Hall that she learned Madam Lu had been blocking the entrance for several days, attracting many onlookers and bringing much business to the hall.

She was almost like a living billboard.

The crowd was buzzing with speculation. Madam Lu, with a physique stronger than most men’s, what illness could she possibly have that only Doctor Gu could treat?

Yet every time she came, her brisk and effortless demeanor didn’t seem to suggest she was ill at all.

As Gu Youyou descended from her carriage, everyone was exceedingly curious.

"Hey, hey, Doctor Gu is here."

"Oh my, Doctor Gu has finally arrived."

Gu Youyou: "..." She too wanted to be a responsible doctor, and despised her own actions, akin to only casting nets and not fishing.

"Doctor Gu, what exactly is wrong with Madam Lu?"

Gu Youyou gave the onlooker a cold glance and said, "I haven’t examined her yet, how would I know?"

Although Gu Youyou had come out of curiosity, she did not appreciate others joking about her patients.

Once inside Jisheng Hall, Gu Youyou said to Shopkeeper Hu, "Please disperse those who are not here for treatment, so as not to disturb the patients."

Shopkeeper Hu, having not seen Gu Youyou for many days, had tears streaming down his face once he saw her again.
