The female boss of destiny, even villains have to work for me

That night, when Mu Zhou was on patrol, he discovered that a guard was acting suspiciously and seemed to be watching something towards the Queen and Du Ran's room.

When Mu Zhou caught him, he subconsciously shook his head and said that he did nothing, which made Mu Zhou even more suspicious.

Suddenly, he realized something, left the guard and hurried to Du Ran's room, knocked on the door and shouted a few times, but got no response.

Mu Zhou's heart tightened, and he kicked the door open. As expected, Du Ran was lying motionless on the bed with a cyanotic look on her face. No matter how Mu Zhou called her, she did not respond.

Even though he was not a doctor, he could tell that Du Ran must have been poisoned.

Without time to think, when he kicked open the queen's door, the queen's symptoms were more serious than Du Ran's, and her breath was already weak.

Mu Zhou rushed out of the door and went back to Du Ran's room to search. After a while, he found the several packets of medicine that Liu Xihua had given to Du Ran. Although he didn't know whether they would be effective or not, he could only try it out.

He first fed Du Ran the medicine, then ran to feed the queen the medicine, and then hurried back to Du Ran's room.

After the whistle was blown, a sturdy little man appeared and said respectfully, "Your Highness Jueming, what can I do for you?"

"Call the best doctor in the city, and don't let anyone know."

"Are you injured?"

"It's not me, someone was poisoned."

The short man immediately went down the mountain and brought up a doctor after a while.

After the doctor felt Du Ran's pulse, he said solemnly: "This girl is showing symptoms of poisoning, but it will take some time to find out what the poison is. For now, we can only save her life first."

Mu Zhou looked at the doctor writing a prescription with a gloomy face. He frowned and called the short man over again: "Go to Yuecheng quickly and ask Liu Xihua to come over as quickly as possible!"

Then comes the long wait.

After taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, it seemed to have no effect at all. Du Ran's pulse, which had been relatively steady, began to become irregular, and his breathing gradually became weak.

The situation on the Queen's side was even worse. Her face was frighteningly blue, as if she had no life left.

"My queen, you'd better wake up quickly, otherwise that restaurant and rouge shop will be mine, and all the money you worked hard to earn and save will go into my pocket. In the end, you have worked in vain, isn't it a loss?" Mu Zhou tried to wake up Du Ran and kept talking to her, hoping that she could give him even the slightest response.

"If you died like this, Qi Heng, that scumbag, would be so happy."

"Don't worry, I won't let you die!"

"If you really die, I will cut the person who poisoned you into pieces. Even if he is at the ends of the earth, I will kill him!"

As he spoke, Mu Zhou didn't realize that his eyes had turned red, and he unconsciously clenched Du Ran's cold hand.

It was not until noon the next day that Liu Xihua finally arrived. He didn't even have time to drink a sip of water before he hurriedly took Du Ran's pulse and diagnosed him. However, his expression was the same as that of the doctor, with deeply furrowed brows, which made Mu Zhou sweat again.

"How about it?"

"This poison... can be cured." Liu Xihua's words made Mu Zhou breathe a sigh of relief.

Liu Xihua continued to ask: "Have you given the Princess and the Queen the medicine I brought?"

Mu Zhou nodded: "That medicine is useless."

"Of course it works. Although it can't detoxify, it may delay the time it takes for the poison to invade the internal organs. If it weren't for my medicine, we would be crying for the princess now."

"Stop talking nonsense and detoxify quickly!" Mu Zhou urged unhappily.

Liu Xihua wrote down the prescription neatly, and Mu Zhou hurried down the mountain to get the medicine.

"No wonder His Highness wanted to ask you to come here, you really are a miracle doctor!" The little man looked at Liu Xihua with admiration: "How should I address you as a miracle doctor?"

Liu Xihua tried his best to suppress his smug expression, but the raised corner of his mouth betrayed him: "I don't dare to call myself a miracle doctor, I just prescribe medicine to save people!"

"You are too modest, doctor. I brought the best doctor in the capital last night, but he was unable to do anything. However, as soon as the doctor took action, the poison was immediately cured. This shows how skilled the doctor is! The princess and the queen will definitely be grateful to you when they wake up."

Liu Xihua's originally proud expression immediately turned into surprise after hearing about the Queen: "You said she is the Queen?"

The little man nodded: "Exactly."

Liu Xihua was shocked for a moment, and immediately started to make plans: "I saved the life of the Queen, shouldn't the Queen thank me? She must be rich and generous, so she should give me a few hundred taels of gold. I saved the current Queen, the Emperor's bedmate, so I definitely deserve this money!"

The short man looked at Liu Xihua, who was already beaming with joy, in confusion.

Soon, Mu Zhou came back with the medicine.

After giving them the medicine, Du Ran and the Queen's complexion gradually became normal, and their pulses became much more stable. Liu Xihua felt their pulses and said easily, "Don't worry, you'll wake up after taking the medicine again tonight."

Liu Xihua met Mu Zhou's scrutinizing eyes, straightened his chest fearlessly, and said proudly: "Why, Brother Mu, do you look at me with new eyes?"

"Let's not talk about whether I'm impressed or not. Isn't it inappropriate for you to sit so close to the Queen's bed? She is your master, right?" Mu Zhou pointed speechlessly at Du Ran next to him.

Liu Xihua smiled awkwardly: "Brother Mu, what are you talking about? I am just concerned about the Queen, what's wrong with that? I naturally know that the Princess is our master, and you are here to watch over her, right?"

Mu Zhou sneered: "Liu Xihua, are you attracted by the golden hairpin on the Queen's head?"

Liu Xihua stood up with a guilty conscience, and then paced around the room aimlessly and unnaturally: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm a great doctor, I save lives, how can I do it for money?"

"What's that for?"

"For..." Liu Xihua thought for a moment: "To relieve the suffering of the people of the world!"

Mu Zhou laughed sarcastically: "Doctor Liu is so noble? That's great. When the queen wakes up, I will talk to her about your noble character so that she won't insult your sentiments with money again."

"Oh, don't bother me, Brother Mu. Let's put things one way or the other. The Queen is generous enough to thank me for saving her life. How can I refuse the Queen's face?" Liu Xihua explained hurriedly.

"You called me here in a hurry. There's no one to take care of this restaurant, so we have to close it for a few days. Now only the wine shop and Meixiang are left. It's a big loss. I wonder if the princess will feel uncomfortable when she wakes up." Liu Xihua muttered as if talking to himself, "You haven't been in the restaurant for the past two days. I don't know that many cloth shops and silk shops have come to you as the shopkeeper, wanting to cooperate with you!"

"Why do the cloth shop and silk store want to cooperate with me? I am a restaurant. Do I have to sell cloth and clothes?" Mu Zhou wondered.

"Isn't it because the parade was so successful that they want us to help promote it?"
