Wan Shufang ignored Doctor He and walked straight towards the small courtyard.

Doctor He didn't care about her cold attitude and just followed her. Soon they arrived at the side hospital with a strong aroma of medicine.

Smelling the scent of medicinal herbs filling the yard, Wan Shufang exhaled and then turned around to look at Doctor He.

Her eyes were sharp and her voice was cold: "The poison in that lady's body has something to do with you, right? Or maybe she accidentally took the poison you researched, and you also have a way to detoxify her."

"Why do you say that?" Doctor He looked innocent.

Wan Shufang stared at him intently. Seeing the innocence on his face, she sneered repeatedly, "Because you are a poison master, and that lady was poisoned. The most important thing is that although the prescription you prescribed is very harmful to that lady's body, it can also allow her to live comfortably for a while."

"What does this prove?" Doctor He looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

Wan Shufang was choked by his attitude and almost couldn't control her expression.

After taking a deep breath, Wan Shufang said calmly, "I'm not doubting you. I just think that lady's physical condition is very strange. It's like she's testing me with poison."

"But I don't know her, why would she risk herself? I suspect her target is you, but you are Prince Rong's man, and she is staying in Prince Rong's mansion, so I think she has a close relationship with Prince Rong. If that's the case, why would she use poison to test you?"

Wan Shufang did have such a guess in her mind, and she told Doctor He now, not because she really suspected that the woman was testing Doctor He, but because she wanted to take this opportunity to use Doctor He to find out the woman's status in Prince Rong's Mansion.

"That woman has nothing to do with the prince. If Liu Yaoyao hadn't cared about her so much and shamelessly brought her to the palace, she would probably still be staying in the brothel."

Doctor He spoke in a sarcastic tone, but his eyes were staring at Wan Shufang like knives, as if he regarded her as his enemy, and his eyes were sharp enough to cut a person's throat.

Wan Shufang met his gaze calmly, but was pondering his words in her heart.

The woman has nothing to do with Prince Rong? Doesn't that mean Doctor He came to the woman because of Liu Yaoyao?

If this is the case, Liu Yaoyao might be the one who has a close relationship with Prince Rong.

As various thoughts turned to her mind, Wan Shufang couldn't help but conclude that Prince Rong was the man behind Liu Yaoyao.

The existence of this woman is probably the reason why Liu Yaoyao is willing to obey King Rong.

She just wants to find a way to rescue the woman. Is Liu Yaoyao willing to betray Prince Rong for the woman?

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Wan Shufang's mind became active.

She had been in Prince Rong's Mansion for several days without any progress. Now that she had finally made a breakthrough, she had to find a way to seize it. Although there would be risks involved, the rewards were also high.

Thinking this in her heart, Wan Shufang immediately perked up her spirits, looked at Doctor He calmly, and asked tentatively, "When did Liu Yaoyao bring Madam to the Rong Palace? Madam is very thin and frail, and it is obvious that she suffered a lot when she was young. If I take care of her, it will take some time for her to be like a normal person."

"Do you want to find out about that lady's past?" Doctor He heard Wan Shufang's tentative intention and did not give her any face, and directly exposed her thoughts.

"Liu Yaoyao mentioned it briefly before, and I became a little curious about her. After all, the five poisons in her body are also very eye-catching." Although Wan Shufang expected Dr. He to react like this, she still felt a little uncomfortable when he was so direct.

"I didn't poison her, nor have I studied it." Doctor He sighed, "Those poisons are very sophisticated. If Liu Yaoyao doesn't care about her, I really want to take her blood and study it."

Hearing his extremely cold tone, as if he was lurking in the dark like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity to strike, Wan Shufang couldn't help but shiver.

Doctor He is a man with a twisted mind. She has to be careful when dealing with him.

Wan Shufang warned herself secretly in her heart and said calmly: "Prince Rong will not let you do this, because Liu Yaoyao is valuable to him."

Her words made her card clear. Doctor He suddenly remembered Wan Shufang's identity and stared at her with an inexplicable look.

Wan Shufang was not afraid at all. She smiled and said, "Doctor He, I am the general's wife, and you are the poison master supported by the Rong Palace. Our identities are opposite, so our identities and status in this Rong Palace have been unequal from the beginning, and this is why you look down on me."

"I think in your heart I am just a prisoner of King Rong. If I don't obey you or do what you say, you will probably find a way to get rid of me."

"Unfortunately, no matter how disobedient I am, you can't do anything to me in the short term, because I have discovered one thing, which is that you really need my medical skills to help you achieve your ulterior motives."

"Phoenix Gu, this kind of illusory legend, Liu Yaoyao doesn't believe it, but I don't know if Doctor He believes it?"

Wan Shufang never thought of pretending to be nice to these people, because of her identity. Whether it was Liu Yaoyao or Prince Rong who had not appeared until now, they all had ill will towards Wan Shufang.

If Wan Shufang showed her cowardice and humbled herself, they would probably look down on her and treat her like a toy.

"Phoenix Gu can make people immortal and stay young forever." Doctor He said in an inexplicable tone, "But in fact, it was a Gu developed by the last emperor of the previous dynasty. The previous dynasty was destroyed because of it, so how can such an ominous thing be true?"

This...why does it sound contradictory?

Wan Shufang suddenly realized that Doctor He believed in the Phoenix Gu, but no one had succeeded in refining the Phoenix Gu in nearly a hundred years, so he began to doubt it.

It's just that the legend about Phoenix Gu was too tempting, and Doctor He was a poison master with good talent. Faced with the existence of Phoenix Gu, he was determined to obtain it, and that doubt disappeared like smoke in the blink of an eye.

"To be honest, I don't believe it's true, but I'd rather it was true. That way, those with bad intentions won't commit more murders."

Wan Shufang revealed her attitude and deliberately looked at Doctor He with a smile. Seeing that his brows were relaxed and he seemed to agree with what she said, she continued with a smile.

"However, the existence of Phoenix Gu cannot be real. Otherwise, how can ordinary people like us survive?"

Hearing these words, Doctor He was silent for a while before saying, "If you can refine all the poisons in the booklet, the Phoenix Gu might be able to come into the world."

Wan Shufang's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She immediately realized what the poisons on the booklet represented, and her face suddenly turned cold: "Are those poisons the ingredients for Phoenix Gu?"
