480 Background (2)
Fortunately, Madam Qiu had a lot of medicinal herbs here. She had everything Mo Yuan needed.
Unable to resist Madam Qiu’s enthusiasm, Shen Yijia ate lunch at Madam Qiu’s place. Madam Qiu even got someone to call Sister Huan and Lin Miaomiao over for lunch.
Madam Qiu’s taste was relatively bland, so she got someone to add a few more dishes with heavier flavors. The guests and hosts enjoyed the meal.
When they left, a box of medicinal herbs was carried into the carriage, attracting the attention of many people. Some curious people asked and found out that it was to treat Madam Qiu.
But wasn’t it Princess Yong’an who saved Madam Qiu?
If it was really Princess Yong’an who saved Madam Qiu, why would Madam Qiu change doctors?
Human imagination was unlimited. All kinds of guesses spread. Some said that Princess Yong’an was pretending to take credit, while others said that Princess Yong’an’s medical skills were not good. Previously, it was just a coincidence.
There were also those who were unconvinced. If Princess Yong’an’s medical skills were not good, what would happen to the emperor and the old princess consort?
If the imperial physician couldn’t treat her, Princess Yong’an could!
There were all kinds of things, but Shen Yijia did not care. The people she cared about were still at the royal hunting ground.
“She won’t live past three years,” Mo Yuan said.
This was the effect of taking Mo Yuan’s health pills. If he continued to take the previous medicine, she would not live for more than a year.
Shen Yijia was shocked. “It doesn’t look like it.”
Mo Yuan paused for a moment and said, “If not for Miss, she would have died long ago.”
Shen Yijia’s heart pounded.
Previously, when she mentioned the antidote for the Daylily Powder in Xunyang City, Shen Yijia suspected that Mo Yuan knew something when she looked at her. Now, she was even more certain.
“Mo Yuan, you…”
“Miss, you have to be careful of Ji Yunxi,” Mo Yuan said expressionlessly.
Shen Yijia asked, “Do you know something?”
Mo Yuan said, “She should have come from the same place as my young lady.”
Shen Yijia was shocked. If Ji Yunxi was from the Valley of Heavenly Secrets, then wouldn’t Mo Yuan’s previous lady be the same?
“How do you know that?”
Mo Yuan said expressionlessly, “The prescription she gave Madam Qiu. Miss taught me before.”
The more precious a prescription was, the more it would not be leaked unless they came from the same lineage.
However, Ji Yunxi did not seem to care.
“Then is it possible to find your young lady through Ji Yunxi?”
For some reason, Shen Yijia felt inexplicably nervous.
Mo Yuan did not say anything. She was not sure if Miss was still alive.
Shen Yijia stopped asking. Mo Yuan definitely did not know for no reason that she had spiritual liquid that could detoxify poison and save people. She could only have learned about it from her Miss.
Who was that person who seemed to have the ability to predict the future? What did it have to do with her? Could it be that her transmigration was not a coincidence?
Since Mo Yuan had yet to recover, Shen Yijia did not ask her to drive the carriage.
When the carriage arrived at the house, she saw the back of the woman she had seen yesterday.
Shen Yijia frowned and drove the carriage into the courtyard.
Madam Wang walked all the way home. As soon as she opened the courtyard door, she saw two people standing in her dilapidated courtyard.
With two strangers suddenly in the house, her first reaction was to turn around and run. Unexpectedly, she heard muffled sounds from the side.
She turned around and saw who it was. Her pupils constricted.
In a corner of the courtyard, Wang Mingan was tied to a pillar with his arms and legs trussed up, a ball of cloth stuffed in his mouth.
Speaking of which, he was unlucky. The academy had a test today. He wanted to come back early to help Madam Wang do some work, so he handed in his paper in advance. He did not expect to be a hostage.
Madam Wang staggered over. Chu Feng stood in front of her in a flash. “My master just wants to ask you a few questions. As long as you answer honestly, we won’t hurt your son. However, if you’re lying…”
They didn’t want to kidnap Wang Mingan either. After all, that kid ran away as soon as he saw them. When he was captured, he even clamored to report it to the authorities. His Highness had a headache from the commotion, so he could only do this.
However, the situation was perfect now. He was not afraid that this woman would not tell the truth.
Madam Wang glanced at Wang Mingan, then at Xuanyuan Ce. She knelt down with a thud. She opened her mouth to say something, but no sound came out. She could only gesture with her hands.
Xuanyuan Ce looked at Chu Feng in confusion.
Chu Feng scratched his head and almost forgot to say, “She can’t speak.”
Xuanyuan Ce was speechless.
How could he ask anything if she didn’t know how to speak?
“But she can write.” No matter what, she was Madam Shen’s personal maidservant, so she naturally recognized words from her master.
Wang Mingan was a scholar, so Chu Feng quickly took out a pen and paper.
