It's easy to be a villain, but hard to be a princess

Qin Jiu looked at Chu Muqing and asked, "Is it a man with a pale complexion and dark lips who poisoned Mr. Chu?"

Chu Muqing nodded, "Exactly."

Qin Jiudao: "That's right, the poison in Mr. Chu is the soft tendon powder of the white-faced people in the Jianghu. This poison will not kill people, but the poisoned person will gradually become weak, and will be completely weak within two hours."

Chu Muqing asked: "Then is there an antidote to this poison?"

"The formula of this soft tendon powder is very unique. No one knows the formula except the white-faced man who made the poison. I only know that once people inhale the soft tendon powder, the poison will go deep into the blood and bones along with the qi, and it is difficult to get rid of it. "Qin Jiu paused, and said: "But Mr. Chu, don't worry, the effect of this Ruanjin powder will not last for a lifetime, and within a year or two, Ruanjin powder will gradually fade in the blood."

"One or two years?" Chu Muqing frowned.

Qin Jiu nodded, "There are also those who have been deeply poisoned, and it took more than ten years to fade away."

Han Zixiao sighed, and looked at Qin Jiu, "Doctor Qin, is there no other way?"

"That's not true." Qin Jiu twitched the beard on his chin, "My mentor is a master of detoxification. If he can agree to the treatment, there may be a way to quickly detoxify."

"Where is Doctor Qin's mentor?" Han Zixiao asked.

"He lives alone in the mountains, not far from here."

Jiang Yuanzhi behind him said: "I know where Master is. I can take you there then, and it only takes half a day to get there."

Han Zixiao cupped his fists at Jiang Yuanzhi, "Brother Jiang will lead the way."

Qin Jiudao: "It's getting late today, why don't you two stay in the humble house for now, and it won't be too late to go tomorrow."

"Thank you, Doctor Qin." Chu Muqing said.

"The humble house is small, and there is only this one room left. It is used for patients on weekdays. I hope you two will not dislike it." Qin Jiu said.

Chu Muqing said, "It's okay."

Han Zixiao also responded, "Mr. Han and brother Chu slept in the wild yesterday, and today they are satisfied with a shelter from the wind and rain."

Han Zixiao and Chu Muqing stayed and planned to find the doctor who lived in the mountains early tomorrow morning.

In the evening, Jiang Yuanzhi brought dinner, which were all light and nourishing dishes.Han Zixiao helped Chu Muqing sit up, and fed him bite by bite.

Chu Muqing only ate half a bowl and said he would not eat any more. His appetite has been very low for the past two days. Han Zixiao also knew that his appetite was greatly reduced when he was in a bad mood, so he didn't force him to eat more.

After Han Zixiao ate, he borrowed the bathroom of the medical center and took a good bath.When he came out of the bathroom, he saw Jiang Yuanzhi, who was washing the medicinal materials picked today by the mouth of the well.

Han Zixiao walked over, "Brother Jiang, do you want to help?"

Jiang Yuanzhi raised his head, "No need, there are not many medicinal materials picked today, and they will be washed soon."

Han Zixiao squatted down beside him, casually picked up a root-shaped thing in the dustpan and looked at it for a while, "What kind of medicinal material is this?"

"This is called polygala, also known as 蕀蒬, which has the effects of calming the nerves, improving intelligence, reducing phlegm and reducing swelling."

"Yuan Zhi?" Han Zixiao felt very interesting, "Isn't this the same name as yours?"

Jiang Yuanzhi said: "My father is a pharmacist, and when he named me, he took the name of a traditional Chinese medicine."

Han Zixiao chuckled, "However, it's a good name."

Jiang Yuanzhi saw that the medicinal materials in the basin were washed, put them into the dustpan, and then poured out the water.Han Zixiao picked up the dustpan on the ground while he was pouring water.

Jiang Yuanzhi cleaned up the wooden basin, stretched out his hands and said, "Mr. Han, give me the dustpan."

Han Zixiao handed him the dustpan, and asked casually, "Where do you want to put this medicinal material?"

"Put it outside to dry first, and then dry it when the sun comes out tomorrow." Jiang Yuanzhi put the dustpan on an old table nearby, and deftly picked up the medicinal materials in the dustpan.

After drying the medicinal materials, Jiang Yuanzhi turned around and said, "By the way, Young Master Han, I rarely see that Young Master Chu speak today, but is he like this on weekdays?"

Han Zixiao paused for a moment, and replied: "Brother Chu has a cold temper, and he doesn't talk much on weekdays."

"I see."

Han Zixiao remembered that Chu Muqing was still in the room, so he said, "It's getting late, I'll go back to the room first, Brother Jiang rests earlier."

"I still have a few prescriptions to copy, and I will rest after copying."

Han Zixiao said: "Brother Jiang is busy first, see you tomorrow."

When Han Zixiao returned to the room, Chu Muqing leaned against the head of the bed, closed her eyes and rested.Han Zixiao entered the room and announced, "The officer is back." Chu Muqing responded, and Han Zixiao was used to it, so he picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea to moisten his throat, his eyes wandered around the room , Thinking about where to sleep tonight is more comfortable.

His gaze went around twice, and he landed on the only bed in the room, that bed was the only one that could lie in this room, otherwise he would have to lie down on the table and make do with it.

Han Zixiao sighed softly and sat down to drink tea.

"The king is going to bed." Chu Muqing said behind him.

Han Zixiao responded, and went to help him lie down, Chu Muqing said: "This king sleeps on the outside, you sleep on the inside."

Han Zixiao was taken aback for a moment, what Chu Muqing said obviously meant that they had tacitly agreed that they would sleep together in the same bed today.It's been two nights since I didn't get a good night's sleep, and finally got a bed tonight, so Han Zixiao followed suit, "My lord is inconvenient to move, so I'd better sleep on the outside."

"what ever."

Han Zixiao moved Chu Muqing inside, and before Chu Muqing regretted it, he turned off the light and lay down on the bed, "If the lord wants to make it easier at night, just call the officer."

"Ah."

Han Zixiao's body was stuck to the soft couch, and after taking a bath, he soon became sleepy and fell into a deep sleep.There was originally a gap between the two, but after Han Zixiao fell into a deep sleep, he turned over and put his body against Chu Muqing's.

The long breath was rising and falling next to Chu Muqing's ear, sticking very close.Chu Muqing frowned, no one dared to stick so close to him so presumptuously, but he couldn't move now, so naturally he couldn't push him away.

When Han Zixiao woke up, he found that his head was pressed against Chu Muqing's, and one foot was slightly resting on his lap. He was startled, and opened his eyes. Seeing that Chu Muqing's eyes were still closed, he immediately turned over. body, a little further away.

Not long after, Chu Muqing said, "Get up."

Han Zixiao saw that it was not too early, so he got up and put on his outer robe, and Jiang Yuanzhi sent two bowls of porridge and a plate of pickles for breakfast.Han Zixiao fetched water to help Chu Muqing wash up, and then fed him half a bowl of porridge.

Chu Muqing said: "I have a jade pendant around my waist, you tear it off and give it to Doctor Qin as a thank you gift."

Han Zixiao put down the porridge bowl, and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, "The prince's jade pendant is still worn by himself, and I still have a few ingots of silver on my body."

Han Zixiao gave Qin Jiu five taels of silver, but Qin Jiu said that he failed to detoxify Mr. Chu and would not accept the consultation fee.Han Zixiao insisted on giving it, saying it was a token of kindness, and finally gave it to Qin Jiu's eight-year-old son, saying he wanted to buy him some snacks.

After leaving the clinic, Jiang Yuanzhi was carrying a basket of dried medicinal materials to send to his master.Han Zixiao followed behind Chu Muqing behind his back.

Jiang Yuanzhi said in the front: "Shigong was a very famous doctor in Jianghu back then. Many people in Jianghu did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to treat him. Later, more and more people asked him to see a doctor. Shigong felt annoying and he liked to be quiet. I want to research and develop new medicines, and I don’t want people to disturb me, so I moved into this deep mountain to live.”

Han Zixiao said: "Brother Jiang's master is really a weird person."

Jiang Yuanzhi smiled, "Mr. Han is right, my master is indeed a weird person, and you have to get used to him when you get along with him."

"People with unique skills are always a little weird, but Han can understand."

"Master likes to arrest people to test medicines. After going there, Mr. Han and Mr. Chu have to be careful. If it's not a cure, don't take it indiscriminately."

The corner of Han Zixiao's mouth twitched, "This..."

Jiang Yuanzhi smiled, "But Mr. Han, don't worry, the master will always ask before testing the medicine. If you don't want to, he won't force it."

Han Zixiao breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

Passing by a spring on the way, Han Zixiao turned his head back, "Wang...Brother Chu, why don't you stop and drink some water."

Chu Muqing hummed.Jiang Yuanzhi in front heard their conversation, and said, "It's my fault, I kept walking on my own, forgetting that Mr. Han hasn't rested since he set off early in the morning."

Han Zixiao placed Chu Muqing under a tree beside him, raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat from his face, "I'm strong and strong, so that's nothing."

Jiang Yuanzhi picked the leaves and scooped water for them to drink, Han Zixiao took it and squatted by the spring to drink several sips.Jiang Yuanzhi scooped up some water and sent it to Chu Muqing, "Come, Brother Chu, drink some water."

Chu Muqing didn't like outsiders approaching, so she declined, "Thank you Mr. Jiang, I'm not thirsty yet."

Han Zixiao walked over and took the water from Jiang Yuanzhi's hand, "Brother Chu, drink a little even if you're not thirsty. There is still a long way to go, so I don't know if there is any water ahead."

Jiang Yuanzhi said: "That's right, on the way to Master's residence, this is the only place to drink water."

Han Zixiao squatted down and gave Chu Muqing some water.

Enough rest, and then continue to move forward.

It was already past noon when we arrived at the residence of the rumored miracle doctor.Some fruit trees were planted outside the bamboo house where the genius doctor lived, and the peaches and plums were just ripe at this time, and the branches were covered.
