The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 98: Boiling Medicinal Materials

"Your Majesty, Ting'er's injury is related to Miss Shangguan. I called Miss Shangguan to inquire. Miss Shangguan not only talked back to me, but also scolded Ting'er and said she deserved it. So I punished her a little."

Mo Shaoxie was filled with hostility and asked coldly, "Punish my fiancée?"

Mo Shaoxie looked at Shangguan Ziling, his voice softened and said, "Ling'er, tell me."

Shangguan Ziling told him everything, and Mo Shaoxie's aura became colder and colder.

Mo Shaoxie said in a cold voice, "Is this how the Queen raised the Fifth Princess?"

The queen looked unhappy and she twitched the corners of her mouth but still said nothing.

The emperor's face was not good either, and he said in a deep voice: "Queen, you will reflect on your mistakes for three days. Jun Wanting, go back to your palace and reflect on your mistakes for a month."

Jun Wanting screamed heartbreakingly, "Father, your son should not reflect on his mistakes. Why didn't you punish Shangguan Zi? It was your son who was injured. Why did you punish your son? Why?"

The Queen raised her head suddenly and said in disbelief: "Your Majesty, Ting'er was just spoiled by me. Please have mercy on her, Your Majesty."

The emperor snorted coldly and walked away.

Mo Shaoxie pulled Shangguan Ziling and said, "Ling'er, let's go."

"Um"

The queen looked at the backs of Shangguan Ziling and Mo Shaoxie with gloomy eyes.

"Mother," Jun Wanting called.

"Ting'er, go back to your palace."

"Mother"

"go back"

Shangguan Ziling got on the carriage and looked at Mo Shaoxie opposite her and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I don't want Ling'er to be wronged." Mo Shaoxie said softly.

Shangguan Ziling was very touched when she knew that Mo Shaoxie came because of her. This man was cold and ruthless to others, but very gentle to her.

Mo Shaoxie sent Shangguan Ziling back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Shangguan Dong and Shangguan Zirun were looking ahead worriedly at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. They all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the Regent's carriage approaching.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. As soon as Shangguan Ziling got off the carriage, she saw two pairs of worried eyes.

"Dad, brother, I'm fine. I'm sorry to have made you worry."

Shangguan Dong looked Shangguan Ziling up and down, and seeing that she was unharmed, he nodded and said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." He was worried that the Queen would take out her anger on her because of the fifth princess' injury.

She and her son heard about this when they came back and were very worried. When Shangguan Dong wanted to go to the palace to meet the emperor, the regent's secret guards came to inform them that the regent had already entered the palace and told them not to worry. They were still worried without seeing Shangguan Ziling.

Shangguan Dong and Shangguan Zirun bowed when they saw Mo Shaoxie coming out from behind.

"No need to be so polite."

Shangguan Dong cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Regent, for bringing my daughter back safely."

Mo Shaoxie looked at Shangguan Ziling with tenderness and sweetness, with the corner of his mouth raised, and said: "Ling'er's affairs are my affairs."

Shangguan Dong coughed. It was a rare sight. He could actually see the Regent being so gentle. Was it because of Zi Ling?

It seemed that the Regent truly loved his daughter, which made her very happy.

Shangguan Dong asked, "Would the Regent go in and have a cup of tea?"

"No need, I still have things to deal with, I will go back now."

Shangguan Dong nodded, and the others watched the Regent leave before they chatted and laughed all the way into the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Sister, you worried me to death," Shangguan Zirun said.

Shangguan Ziling winked at Shangguan Zirun mischievously and said, "Brother, I'm fine, you just worry about me. It's none of my business. What can happen to me?"

Shangguan Zirun touched Shangguan Ziling's head lovingly and said, "Sister, go out with the Regent, be careful, there are still two days, have you prepared everything?"

"Well, I'm ready, you don't have to worry, brother," Shangguan Ziling said obediently.

Shangguan Dong said earnestly: "Zi Ling, after this time, I can see that the Regent is sincere to you, but you haven't gotten married yet, so you still have to be careful when going out. Also, safety is the most important thing."

"Daddy, brother, don't worry, your daughter will come back safely, and the same goes for you."

Shangguan Dong nodded and said, "Well, go back to your own yard! See if there is anything else you want to take, and let your maid pack it for you."

"Um"

Shangguan Ziling returned to Jiangziyuan. Several maids surrounded her and chattered. Shangguan Ziling did not mind their noise and let them talk.

It was only when Chunxiao said she was going to pack her clothes for going out that the maids quieted down and went to work.

Shangguan Ziling watched them busy themselves while she continued to take care of the medicinal materials. She mixed them separately, ground them into powder, added some diluted spiritual spring water, and rolled them into balls to make small pills.

Ask Xia Yu to get some porcelain bottles to put the pills in.

Xia Yu asked curiously, "Miss, what are these pills?"

Shangguan Ziling said: "Hemostatic pills. After getting injured, crush the pills and apply them to the wound. It can stop bleeding quickly and the wound will heal quickly."

Xia Yu looked at Shangguan Ziling with starry eyes, admiring his own young lady very much, and said: "Wow, it's so amazing! The young lady is getting more and more powerful now."

"Put these pills in the porcelain bottle. I want to make another pill." Shangguan Ziling went over and washed her hands.

Shangguan Ziling stood in front of the medicine table. She had just washed her hands and looked particularly fresh. She took out a pair of gloves that she often wore in her previous life from the space.

Although these gloves may look ordinary, they are made of special materials that can isolate toxins and protect her hands.

She put on gloves and her eyes became focused and sharp.

In front of her, there were a number of colorful and variously shaped medicinal herbs, some of which were rare and precious, while others were highly poisonous.

However, in Shangguan Ziling's eyes, they were all raw materials for making poison. She wanted to make some poison for self-defense. Although there were some left from her previous life, there were not many. She would feel more at ease if she put some of them in the space.

She began to carefully select the herbs, and each one was carefully examined and compared. She gently touched each leaf and each fruit with her fingers, feeling their texture and temperature, and judging their medicinal properties and toxicity. Her technique was skillful and accurate, as if there was a magic flowing in her hands.

After finishing the selection, she began to refine the medicinal materials.

"Xia Yu, get out. I have to stay up late. The smell is poisonous. You will be poisoned here," Shangguan Ziling said as she lit a fire in a small stove nearby.

"Ah, what about the young lady?" Xia Yu was shocked. What kind of medicine is the young lady making? The smell is poisonous. Isn't the young lady afraid?

"Be obedient, and I will be fine!"

Xia Yu walked out hesitantly and closed the door.

Seeing Xia Yu leave, Shangguan Ziling took out a heart-clearing pill from the space and swallowed it, then drank a sip of spiritual spring water, and finally took out a mask and put it on. Everything was ready.

She took a small pot from the side and put it on top, putting the herbs in to slowly boil. As time went by, the smell of the medicine gradually spread and filled the entire room. She carefully observed the changes in the medicine liquid, adding new herbs or adjusting the size of the flame from time to time.

Under her careful manipulation, those poisonous herbs were gradually refined into a deep black liquid medicine. It looked evil and dangerous, but in Shangguan Ziling's eyes it was a priceless treasure.

Throughout the whole process, Shangguan Ziling maintained a high degree of concentration and calmness. Her eyes were firm and deep, as if she could see through all difficulties and challenges. Her figure was looming in the unpleasant smell of medicine, like a mysterious and noble goddess who held the secrets of life and death.
