Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen
Chapter 225: One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers
Lu Tianning sighed, thinking that even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have put in a lot of effort to obtain these medical books.
Lu Ke'er was ecstatic and spent several hours every day reading the book eagerly.
There were a lot of books, and she thought that if she studied day and night without sleep and forgetting to eat, it would take at least a year to finish reading all these books. But she didn't expect that she could read more than ten books every day, and she could remember everything she read. At this speed, she would probably finish reading in two or three months.
When did her memory become so good?
Could it be the effect of spiritual energy?
One day, she was reading a book when she suddenly received a "express delivery" from Gao Yutang, which Gao Yutang asked Xiaobai to deliver - a letter and a small bottle.
In the letter, Gao Yutang recounted the whole story, expressed his concerns, and finally begged her to help detoxify.
Lu Ke'er picked up the bottle again. In the bottle was a small piece of bloody meat. The meat had been specially treated and was not rotten.
Her eyes were fixed on the piece of meat for only a moment, and some names of medicinal herbs popped up in her mind, all of which were nerve-damaging poisons.
She knew the nemesis of several of these poisons, but there were still many that she didn't know. Fortunately, she had many medical books at hand, so she could look for the answers in the books first.
She took out all the books on pharmacology and medicinal materials that she had not read yet, including some books on poisons, and read them even more wholeheartedly.
Seeing that she was almost always reading, Lu Tianning and Ji couldn't help but feel worried.
It is a good thing for a daughter to be studious, but if she is too studious, it is worrying.
"We don't need her to take the imperial examination, so is there a need for her to work so hard?" Seeing her daughter's chin had obviously become thinner over the past few days, Ji complained to Lu Tianning with concern.
Lu Tianning sighed, "A son grows up and is no longer under the control of his mother. Ke'er has always been righteous, so let her be. These days, make her some delicious food to nourish her."
Ji thought about it and responded.
They knew that their daughter had been in contact with the capital. They probably knew that their daughter had something important to do. As parents, they could not solve anything for her, so they would be her strong support.
…………
Half a month later, Yaowang Valley.
Qu Hongmei suddenly smashed a white jade cup to the ground.
The jade cup broke into pieces.
"What's going on recently? Why do people come to Medicine King Valley to cause trouble every day?" She asked angrily, "The day before yesterday, a medicine garden was burned, and yesterday more than half of the poisonous creatures in the poison garden were smashed to death. What are you doing for a living? You can't even catch a single person?"
The Medicine King Valley steward, who was standing at the bottom of the hall with his head bowed, was trembling with fear and pale. He carefully explained: "Valley Master, every time someone comes, they wear a black scarf and mask their face, and most of them come at night. They are all highly skilled in martial arts..."
"When did my Medicine King Valley become a back garden where we can come and go as we please? Are the people and poisons in the valley just for show?"
The steward felt bitter in his heart: "Valley Master, the person who broke into the valley is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also... not afraid of poison."
"Are you not afraid of poison?" Qu Hongmei clenched her palms tightly and gritted her teeth, "So they are from the Long family. For nearly fifty years, my Medicine King Valley and the Long family have kept to themselves. Why would they come to provoke and disrupt this balance?"
Qu Wei's eyes rolled as she said, "Master, the Long family has occupied Qianlong City for hundreds of years, and has shared the power of Qianlong City with Yaowang Valley for nearly fifty years. As the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. I guess the Long family no longer wants to be controlled by Yaowang Valley in every way."
"Oh, can the current situation be changed just because his Long family wants to? Long Yuan thinks that the Medicine King Valley today is still the same as before? Don't you see that in addition to the support of the Thirteen Alien Tribes in the dense forest, our Medicine King Valley also has the army of King Chen." Qu Hongmei disagreed and said contemptuously, "It seems that Long Yuan will not cry until he sees the coffin. Come on, take a message to the Thirteen Alien Tribes and teach Long Yuan a lesson, so that he won't keep thinking about our Medicine King Valley all day long."
"Yes!" The manager of Yaowang Valley left in a hurry.
………………
"Not good!" Long Yuan had just returned to the City Lord's Mansion when he saw the housekeeper Long Qi hurriedly greet him, "City Lord, a lot of crops in the hundred acres of farmland outside our city were destroyed by those thirteen aliens."
"What? How dare they?"
"City Lord, they said that the land has been theirs since ancient times."
"Nonsense!" Long Yuan was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. "That piece of land originally belonged to the jurisdiction of Qianlong City. Our Long family has been cultivating it for decades. They are just saying it's theirs now. They are simply scoundrels!"
Long Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said worriedly: "City Lord, many of our tenants have been captured by them, saying that they are being taken as slaves. What should we do? Now many tenant families have asked us for help, hoping that the City Lord can rescue them."
"Damn it! For more than ten years, I ignored them and turned a blind eye to their survival in the dense forest outside the city. I helped them, but not only were they ungrateful, they even tripped me up. They thought I was made of paper, but they actually bullied me! Come on, gather some people, I'm going to wipe out these thirteen alien tribes!"
"Wait!" Seeing Long Yuan so impulsive, Madam Long hurriedly stopped him, "My husband, the thirteen alien tribes have been staying in the dense forest outside the city and rarely set foot in the city. They have always kept to themselves. Why are they taking the initiative to provoke our Long family now?"
"Who knows what these foreigners are thinking?" Long Yuan said angrily.
Madam Long glared at him and said, "Don't forget that the thirteen alien tribes have close ties with Medicine King Valley. Their actions today must be related to Medicine King Valley. Their intentions must be the intentions of Medicine King Valley. Husband, why would Medicine King Valley target our Long family?"
"I...how should I know?" Long Yuan felt a little guilty, his eyes dodging, "Ah, Madam, don't worry about these trivial matters, just take good care of Xing'er. Xing'er is in good health now, when you are free, accompany him to stroll in the garden of the mansion, or make more delicious food for him to nourish his body..."
"Husband!" Madam Long interrupted his chattering and asked seriously, "Is Xing'er's injury related to Medicine King Valley?"
"Madam..." Long Yuan sighed in his heart.
She is indeed a lady brought up by a wealthy family in Beijing.
Having a smart wife is a face-saving thing, but it is also a headache. Because in front of her, he doesn't know how to hide anything.
Wouldn't it be good for her to just be a pampered lady?
"I hope my husband can tell me the truth." There was a hint of anger in Mrs. Long's tone.
Long Yuan was silent for a long while, and finally shook his sleeves and said, "Okay, I'll tell you everything. Master Gao once said that the wolves that bit Xing'er were all poisoned. The person who made the poison is the one who really hurt Xing'er. I, uh, no, I will definitely not let him go. So I went to investigate. The investigation led to Medicine King Valley. This poison was probably made by Medicine King Valley. So these days, I sent people to Medicine King Valley every day to investigate and make trouble for them. Anyway, we are not afraid of their poison, as long as we don't get caught by them."
Madam Long looked at him in astonishment, and then she became angry: "My husband, you...how can you be so stupid! Since you have found out that Medicine King Valley is the real culprit behind this, why did you alert them? Why don't you prepare in secret and then strike them in one blow? You send people over every now and then, which is just a small fight and makes Medicine King Valley alert."
