BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1372 Analyses
Because he failed the battle, or because he had inherited his father's rank? Was it because his father used to be so ferocious and capable, and he failed to live up to his father's reputation, so he wanted to receive less humiliation?
That was the only explanation he could come up with.
However, as he thought about this, he still did not understand. After all, General Liu lost a battle, so did the Crown Prince. He should have no problem losing just one battle, so what was the point of putting on a show? Duke North should not be like this…
Gu Chaoyan took a sip of the tea.
She felt better after she was back at Xinlin Mansion. She was in a better mood as she drank the tea of her preference, so she explained to Li Qing. "Duke North was in a coma at the border and I cured him so he woke up. I am totally aware of what is going on with his physical condition."
"…"
"Duke North's guard Lin Qin told me that he was not doing well, yet I did not check on Duke North at that time, and he was still fine."
"…"
"Then before we decided to head back, Duke North was still very well when he was taken into the wagon. He should not have had any problem at that time."
"…"
"A sudden cold? That is extremely unreasonable, because the cold suddenly went away."
"…"
"Duke North was still fine when we parted ways in the capital, but he suddenly got poisoned when they went back to the mansion."
"…"
"It was such a short period for anyone else to drug him. He must have done it himself," Gu Chaoyan said resolutely.
Well…
She was sure about this, not because she had done the analyses. She was a doctor and she could not just believe that a patient drugged himself with such a lame reason.
However, when Duke North suddenly gripped her hand at Duke North Mansion…
She was shocked not because she was startled. She was a very skilled assassin in her previous life and she would not have such a reaction because of this sudden attack. She was startled, because she could sense the scent of possion from Duke North's fingers, which was spreading through the air.
Not everyone could sense the smell, but she was different. She drank magical water every day so she had a more sensitive and sharper sense of hearing and smell than others.
That was why she could feel that. That was why she left directly.
Madame Duke North was right. She was a doctor and she should save the dying, but… If that dying man hurt himself… she would give up treating him.
Gu Chaoyan said briefly, "I smelt the scent of poison in his fingers. He has the drugs, so he should have the antidote. Don't worry, Li Qing."
Li Qing was very shocked.
Gu Chaoyan was about to say something when Fu Bao came in from outside, looking nervous. "Lord Huai, Lady Chaoyan, Eunuch De Fu is here."
