"Yeah." Su Shengsheng blinked her eyes.

Su Shengsheng came up to him and said, "Does your Highness want to invest in me?"

"I am not that bored yet."

Su Shengsheng sat aside with a frown on her face. "Tsk, I thought the prince was asking about investment."

Mo Chenyuan picked up the Buddhist beads on the table and said, "Where did you learn your medical skills? I checked you and found that you have been staying in the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Su Shengsheng poured herself a cup of tea. "My Lord, are you still wondering where I learned my medical skills?"

Mo Chenyuan didn't say anything.

Su Shengsheng smiled and said, "Since Your Majesty cares so much, I might as well tell you."

"When I was a kid, I went to the temple to worship Buddha. I was playing on the hill behind the temple and I accidentally stepped on air and fell down the hillside. I was alone at the time and no one responded to me even after I shouted for a long time."

"At this time, an old man suddenly appeared. He saved me and said that I had a destiny with him. He then gave me the medical book that he had treasured."

Mo Chenyuan: "......"

Su Shengsheng tilted her head and looked at Mo Chenyuan, "Your Majesty doesn't believe it?"

Mo Chenyuan felt that he must be crazy to listen to her finished this fabricated story, and said in a bad tone: "Slippery tongue."

"Your Highness, you have wronged me. Although I exaggerated this story, it is still true in essence. I did go to the temple and met the old man."

"That old man did give me a medical book."

Mo Chenyuan turned the Buddhist beads, "Oh."

The story Su Shengsheng told was her personal experience, but it happened in her time, so she just summarized it.

Looking at the Buddhist beads in Mo Chenyuan's hand, "The Buddhist beads in the prince's hand are quite special."

Mo Chenyuan looked at the Buddhist beads in his hand, "What's so special about it?"

Su Shengsheng leaned in and sniffed it. "It has a faint herbal scent, and seems to be... a sleep aid."

"Does Your Majesty often suffer from insomnia?"

Mo Chenyuan didn't expect that the smell of the herb was so faint, but Su Shengsheng could still smell it.

Seeing this, Su Shengsheng said directly: "Since you are here, why don't you check the prince's pulse?"

Mo Chenyuan didn't say anything, Ling Yu walked in, "Your Majesty, Mr. Baicao is here."

"Ah."

Su Shengsheng frowned, "Mr. Baicao?" Then he looked at Mo Chenyuan, "Did the prince invite anyone else?"

"Oh, you finally decided to see me?" A hearty voice sounded from outside the door.

Su Shengsheng heard the voice and looked over. An old man in gray clothes walked in with a smile, with a lotus hairpin on his head.

Su Shengsheng was very averse to having one patient see two doctors at the same time. She thought that Mo Chenyuan must not believe in his medical skills, so he invited this old man.

Bai Caorong also saw Su Shengsheng, "I guess this must be the Regent Princess."

Su Shengsheng ignored Bai Caorong and crossed his arms over his chest and said, "Since Your Majesty does not believe in my medical skills, then our agreement is void and I don't need to go to such great lengths to treat you."

After saying that, she was about to leave without waiting for Mo Chenyuan to speak, but Bai Caorong immediately stopped her and asked, "Does the princess also know medical skills?"

"What's it got to do with you? Get out of the way!"

Bai Caorong smiled and said, "Why is the princess so angry? The prince asked me to come here for an extra layer of protection."

"Step aside!"

Bai Caorong looked at Su Shengsheng wearing a veil and said, "I heard that the princess has red spots on her face. I can help treat her."

"Do I know you well?"

Su Shengsheng tried to get around and leave, but Bai Caorong did not let her go and continued, "It's not good for the princess to get angry all the time, as a woman."

Su Shengsheng couldn't stand it anymore. It was one thing for the person in front of him to question his medical skills, but why did he feel like he was targeting him? He couldn't stand it anymore and didn't need to endure it anymore.

Su Shengsheng threw a palm directly over, and Baicaorong dodged it easily.

It’s really infuriating that there is such a shameless old man.

Su Shengsheng didn't care that this was in Mo Chenyuan's yard, and the two of them fought directly from the room to the yard.

Bai Caorong still had a smile on her face, which irritated Su Shengsheng.

Su Shengsheng directly found the house arrest powder in the space and scattered it out. Bai Caorong dodged it quickly, "Princess, this is not a fair victory."

"Cut the nonsense."

After failing the first time, Su Shengsheng changed to another poison, which she had recently developed. She hadn't found anyone to test it on, so today she decided to try it on this old man.

With a tactic of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, Baicaorong dodged the poison that was sprinkled from above, but failed to avoid the poison that came from below and happened to inhale it.

"Ahem..." Bai Caorong stopped, "No more fighting, no more fighting."

Su Shengsheng paused, "Do you still dare to speak so arrogantly?"

Bai Caorong extended her hand and bowed, saying, "The princess's medical skills are good, and her poison making skills are also better than mine. I am convinced. I wonder what poison the princess just gave me?"

Su Shengsheng walked forward and before she could even shout "You old..." she noticed something strange on Baicaorong's face, so she quickly reached out her hand and pounced over.

Before Bai Caorong could dodge, the mask on his face fell off, revealing his original handsome face.

Mo Chenyuan was drinking tea as if nothing had happened, but when he noticed something strange outside, he went out to check.

Seeing the old man Baicao turning into a young man Baicao, Mo Chenyuan stopped spinning the Buddhist beads and said with a faint smile: "Baicao...old man?"

Bai Caorong pursed her lips awkwardly. Su Shengsheng looked at the mask in his hand and exclaimed, "You made this mask very realistically. How did you make it?"

Bai Caorong took back her mask and stuffed it into the small bag she was carrying. "The princess also saw through the realism."

Su Shengsheng put her hands on her hips and asked, "Why are you targeting me?"

Baicaorong had a pretty face, and looked much more pleasing to the eye than before.

"Just now I just wanted to try out the princess's medical skills. Today I saw you stuffing a pill into that old woman's mouth on the street, and I think the princess's medical skills are good."

Baicaorong was speaking when he suddenly covered his chest with his hands, his delicate brows furrowed.

Su Shengsheng knew that the poison had taken effect, so she said, "You are very capable, aren't you? I just made this poison, and I haven't given it a name yet. Why don't you try it first?"

Bai Caorong smiled and said, "Princess, please don't joke with me. I have to hurry to treat the prince."

"Your Highness, I am not your friend. I haven't made the antidote yet. I have to ask you to make the antidote yourself."

After Su Shengsheng finished speaking, she left Wanxiang Hall in a leisurely manner.

Bai Caorong held her chest with her hands aggrievedly and looked at Mo Chenyuan, "My Lord, I..."

"You deserve it!" Mo Chenyuan said and walked in.

Su Shengsheng returned to the door and knocked on the door frame in the yard, "Mr. Baicao?"

Bai Caorong saw Su Shengsheng coming back and immediately said happily: "Princess, are you here to give me the antidote?"

"No, I came here to remind you that the pain from this poison will subside after a while, but it may get worse at night. Don't worry, it won't be life-threatening. But if you haven't made an antidote in three days, then I can't be sure."

"No..." Bai Caorong complained: "Princess, please don't leave, hey!"
