“Yes. Lil’ Lin, take your brother and sister to rest first,” Gu Qingxue said.

Gu Lin nodded obediently. He carried his drowsy sister with Dumby and walked quickly toward the south wing.

Gu Qingxue sat opposite Rong Zhan. “The poison that young master was poisoned with is called Yanqiluo. It’s a rare poisonous flower that can only be nurtured after decades.”

“I’ve never heard of this kind of poison,” Rong Zhan said thoughtfully as he tapped the table with his fingertip.

“This kind of flower is indeed rare. By chance, I’ve read an ancient book that recorded this kind of poisonous flower. People who are poisoned by this kind of poison will die from the poison within a short period of time, and they will become delirious like a crazy demon. Last time, when I checked Young Master’s pulse, I could tell that Young Master had a high level of internal energy. I think he must have been using his internal energy to suppress the poison,” Gu Qingxue said firmly.

Rong Zhan nodded. “Although it can be suppressed, it will still cause the illness.”

“Yes. As the poison accumulates over time, the poison will become more and more severe. Even if the Young Master has a high level of inner energy, the poison will still cause the illness after a period of suppression. If I’m not wrong, when the Young Master’s poison takes effect, you will lose your mind and go berserk, hurting people. This kind of poison goes deep into the nerves and also hurts the nerves. If we can’t get rid of it in time, once the poison enters the heart meridian, the Young Master’s life will be lost,” Gu Qingxue said with a smile, she said calmly.

“Do you have an antidote?” Rong Zhan asked.

Gu Qingxue blinked. “I should say that I’m the only one in the world who can try it. It’s rumored that Yanqiluo is incurable, but I’m willing to give it a try.”

Rong Zhan chuckled, but his attitude was still cold and arrogant. “You treat my life as a child’s game, so you can give it a try if you want?”

Gu Qingxue did not seem to sense the pressure hidden in Rong Zhan’s words. “Young Master, do you have any other choice? The others could not even tell what kind of poison the Young Master had been poisoned by, let alone the antidote. Young Master, I’m 80% sure that I can help you detoxify the poison, even if I can’t cure it…”

“You can’t prove it with words. You have to show me the result,” Rong Zhan said indifferently.

“How about this? Young Master, give me a few more days. I’ll study the antidote to suppress the poison first. It can at least alleviate the Young Master’s headache. It won’t cause the Young Master to be unable to sleep at night,” Gu Qingxue said after thinking for a while.

Rong Zhan said, “Sure. You can’t tell anyone about this, or else…”

“I know, or else I’ll be dead. Don’t worry, Young Master. I just want to rely on my medical skills to earn money to support my family. I won’t care about anything else,” Gu Qingxue interrupted Rong Zhan and said with an obedient face.

Rong Zhan saw that Gu Qingxue was neither servile nor overbearing, so he continued, “I’ll be in Qingyuan Town for the next few days. If you’ve developed the antidote, you can come to the yamen to find me at any time.”

“Is there a need to go through so much trouble?” Gu Qingxue smiled like a flower. Her small hand propped up her snow-white chin, and she said softly, “Can’t I just give the antidote to Young Master’s subordinate? Anyway, he follows me all day long, so it’s convenient to give it to him.”

Rong Zhan paused and looked at Gu Qingxue again with a deeper meaning in his eyes.

She had actually noticed it.

Gu Qingxue did not continue to dwell on this topic. She stood up and dusted off the dust on her sleeves. “Don’t worry, Young Master. I’ll send the antidote to you once I’ve finished my research. It’s getting late. Take care, Young Master.”

“Master, everything has been taken care of.” Liu Yi also stepped forward and cupped his hands to report.

Rong Zhan chuckled and looked away. “Let’s go.”
