The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 231 This Pill is Amazing

When the old prime minister and others heard the imperial physician say that Leng Linglong would not be in danger of life, they all breathed a sigh of relief and temporarily put their minds at ease.

Zhao Junhuan touched the small porcelain bottle in his arms and felt extremely grateful to Lin Xi. If she hadn't given him the medicine, his mother would have been beyond saving!

Zhao Che never left Leng Linglong's side, sitting beside the bed and holding her hand tightly.

The old prime minister sat at the table for a long time. Seeing that Leng Linglong still hadn't woken up, he became a little restless.

He glanced at the old doctor who was still studying the pill, stood up, walked to his side, coughed and said, "Doctor, when will my daughter-in-law wake up?"

The imperial physician was so focused on the pill that he didn't hear what he said at all.

The old prime minister frowned and snatched the pill from his hand.

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't take my pills!"

When the imperial physician saw the pills being taken away, he immediately became furious!

When he looked up and saw the old prime minister looking at him angrily, he vaguely remembered that the old prime minister seemed to have spoken to him just now.

He quickly bowed and smiled, "My Lord Prime Minister, I'm sorry, because the effect of this pill is so miraculous, I couldn't help it at the moment, and I wanted to quickly find out the composition of this pill, and I didn't pay attention to what you said!"

"I'll let Jun Huan give you a few pills later. You can go back and study them slowly. Now hurry up and check on my daughter-in-law. Why hasn't she woken up yet?"

The old prime minister put the pill back into the hands of the imperial physician and winked at Zhao Junhuan.

Zhao Junhuan understood, carefully took out the medicine bottle from his arms, poured out five pills, and handed them to the imperial physician with reluctance.

Upon seeing this, the imperial physician smiled brightly, put the pill away carefully and stuffed it into his arms.

Then he walked to the bedside and examined Leng Linglong again.

"This pill is truly miraculous. It has partially eliminated the poison in Madam's body. At this rate, the poison in Madam's body will be completely eliminated in three days at most, and she will naturally wake up then!"

The imperial physician took Leng Linglong's pulse while stroking his beard, nodding continuously, and once again marvelling at the magic of the pill.

Upon hearing this, the old prime minister and his companions were immediately delighted.

He thanked the imperial physician repeatedly.

"You don't have to thank me, Prime Minister. I didn't help at all. Instead, I got a few magical pills for free. I got a bargain!"

"You can't say that. Only after we have seen you, we will have a clear idea in our mind! There's no need to be so anxious!"

The old prime minister patted the imperial physician on the shoulder and chuckled.

"Mr. Prime Minister, could you please tell me where you got this pill from?"

The doctor asked with a smile on his face, a little embarrassed.

"Oh! This is it. My grandson accidentally saved a barefoot doctor when he was walking outside a few days ago. This medicine was given to him by that person. He said it can cure all kinds of poisons!"

The old prime minister said with a smile on his face.

When Zhao Che and Zhao Junhuan heard what he said, they curled their lips at the same time. Their father (grandfather) lied without blinking an eye!

"Mr. Zhao, do you still remember where you met the barefoot doctor? Can you find him now?"

The imperial physician walked up to Zhao Junhuan, stared at him eagerly and asked.

"Old doctor, I saved him near Guanxi Prefecture. There was a war going on there. He said he had nowhere to go and had to wander around. I don't know where he is now. It's hard to say whether he is still alive or not!"

Zhao Junhuan coughed, shook his head and sighed.

Hearing Zhao Junhuan's words, a hint of disappointment flashed in the imperial physician's eyes. He touched the pills on his chest, and a burning light flashed in his eyes again. He would definitely be able to figure out the composition of these pills.

"Old Prime Minister, Lord Zhao, Young Master Zhao, my wife is fine now. I have no use for you here, so I will take my leave and return to the palace!"

After thinking about it, the imperial physician bowed to the three people and said goodbye. He wanted to return to the palace early to continue his research on the pill.

The old prime minister and his men asked their servants to prepare a generous consultation fee for the imperial physician and politely sent him to the carriage.

Then the three of them went their separate ways, and the old prime minister ordered someone to secretly investigate the attack on Leng Linglong today.

Zhao Che put on his official uniform and went to find the prefect to search for the waiter with him.

Zhao Junhuan interrogated Doctor Chen, the female doctor, and the owner of Yunyi Pavilion, and after finding out that they were innocent, he released them.

The waiter pretended to accidentally bump into Doctor Chen on the way and secretly put the poison into the medicine when he was helping him pick up the medicine box that had fallen to the ground.

He put the poisoned medicine away separately, thinking of going to Linshan Village to find Lin Xi in a few days and asking her to help look at the poison. She was so good at detoxification, maybe she could know what kind of poison it was, and then they might be able to follow the clues of the poison to find the person behind it.

"Did you deliver the post to the Shangshu Mansion yesterday?"

In the general's mansion, Zhao Ting'er had just woken up from a nap and asked as she was dressing in front of the mirror.

"Madam, the invitation has been sent and the gifts are ready!"

Madam Zhao inserted a jade hairpin into Zhao Ting'er's hair bun and replied respectfully.

At this time, the little maid who knew Kung Fu walked quickly to Zhao Ting'er and bowed to her respectfully.

When Zhao Ting'er saw her stand up, she didn't say anything, but glanced at the servants in the room.

"All of you go down! Only Madam Zhao stays here!"

Zhao Ting'er stood up and gave instructions to the maids in the room.

When only Zhao Ting'er, Madam Zhao and the little maid were left in the room, the maid took out a letter from her sleeve and quietly handed it to Zhao Ting'er, then bowed and retreated.

Zhao Ting'er glanced at the red plum blossom painted on the envelope and quickly opened the letter.

It only said: The man that the madam ordered your subordinates to kill has been poisoned and will not live long!

After Zhao Ting'er read the contents of the letter, she giggled with joy!

Leng Linglong, ah Leng Linglong, don’t you like to fight with me? Now that you have lost your life, I wonder how you can still be so arrogant!

With a sinister look in her eyes, she set the letter in her hand on fire. When it was completely reduced to ashes, she smiled and said to Madam Zhao, "Madam, let's go back to the Shangshu Mansion to see our father!"

After saying this, he left the room with Nanny Zhao and took a carriage to the Shangshu Mansion.
