313 Assassination Attempt (Second Update)

"...Yes, no need for medicine, drinking some water infused with Houttuynia cordata would do. It's also called fish mint, do you have it at home? If not, you can get some from the pharmacy.

The door opened. In came the Duchess of Rui, whom Gu Jiao had not seen for several days.

This time, the Duchess of Rui did not cut in line. Despite being five months pregnant, she quietly waited her turn for half of 2 hours.

"Why are you here?" Gu Jiao invited her to sit down.
