The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Not long after the hidden arrow exploded, Butler Zeng happened to return to the Ye Mansion.

Butler Zeng also wanted to go up and help, but he still knew his own limitations. He was an old man and if he rushed forward rashly he would only cause trouble for others.

Yun Mujiu asked: "Butler Zeng, have you purchased all the medicinal materials?"

"Princess, all the herbs have been collected. There are more herbs than expected."

It is better to prepare more medicinal materials, especially when it is a matter of life and death.

Yun Mujiu nodded and said, "Wei Bai, you will lead the team. Divide the guards and servants into three groups and send them to Doumen District and Wuxin District on the outskirts of the city, and Dongtai District in the city."

These are the main poisoning areas, and it is most effective to attack from these three areas.

"In addition, we will prepare decoctions on site and distribute them to the people. Regardless of whether they have symptoms of poisoning or not, they must drink a bowl of it as a precaution."

Yun Mujiu knew Wei Bai's ability to get things done. She was responsible for giving orders and arranging matters roughly. Wei Bai would take care of the details himself.

"Yes, Princess!"

Yun Mujiu added: "You should immediately boil the medicine according to my prescription. I will send someone to deliver the last ingredient later."

Wei Bai nodded, pointed at someone, and left quickly.

All the staff of the Night Palace who went out rode horses or took carriages, which was faster.

To be honest but not too nice, most of the people who were poisoned by the Gu have already died, a small number are still barely alive, and a considerable number have only been poisoned with mild toxins and have not yet shown obvious symptoms of poisoning.

What we are racing against time to do now is to save the very small number of people who are on the verge of death, and to take preventive measures for the potential population who have not yet been poisoned.

Yun Mujiu looked up at the sky, and her face changed when she thought of Ye Xiaohan's medicinal bath.

It's over! There are too many things to deal with today. Will it delay Ye Xiaohan's treatment?

"Butler Zeng, please help me tell the prince that I have to go back to Qichiyuan to find medicinal herbs first."

She picked up her skirt and ran, saying, "If the medicinal bath time is up and I can't make it to Huayang Courtyard in time, I can let Doctor Wu give the prince acupuncture."

Yun Mujiu's anxious and flustered appearance was completely different from the dignified and steady appearance he had shown outside the Ye Mansion just now.

Her action revealed a bit of liveliness and down-to-earthness.

The sedan chair that Yun Mujiu was riding in was still on the ground, but Yun Mujiu herself had already rolled up her skirt and ran out.

Butler Zeng showed a kind smile on his face.

Their princess is really a special person! She is dignified and polite outside, and gentle and kind inside.

In an alley several streets away from Yefu, a carriage was parked at the entrance.

The breeze lifted the curtain of the carriage, revealing that there was no one inside.

In a room in the alley, a young man was sitting with his legs crossed, a playful look in his eyes.

"Tudan, do you think Yun Mujiu would have been able to escape unscathed if those two people hadn't shown up to block the darts?"

"Second Prince, Yun Mujiu should be able to withstand it, but she may be slightly injured. Although she is not weak, her physical strength will definitely be greatly reduced after absorbing our poison gas. In addition, the two people named 'Wei Bai' and 'Ying Liu' may also be able to rush to Yun Mujiu's side and block some darts for her."

“Heh, if no one intervenes, I’d really like to see Yun Mujiu display his skills.”

"Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan are from the same faction. Sooner or later, Yun Mujiu will encounter the danger she faced today again. If the Second Prince has the chance, he will be able to see her take action again."

The Second Prince smiled cheerfully and started playing with a colorful braid on his head with his fingers.

"Tu Shan, you really understand my thoughts. I, Wan Yan Gu, find it very interesting to watch a fire from the other side of the river."

Wanyan Gu noticed Tudan's anxious expression and said disapprovingly, "I was just playing around. The Ye Mansion shouldn't be able to find out that we were the ones who planted the arrows and darts."

He curled his lips, "What's more, Ye Xiaohan is no longer the same status and position as before, and both of his legs are useless."

Tu Dan relaxed his brows and said respectfully, "The Second Prince is right."

It would be good if the Second Prince knew his limits. He was afraid that they would do something out of line before they formally met the Emperor of Zhongyue Kingdom, which would in turn affect the relationship between the two countries.

This time, Nantai came to visit Zhongyue State not just for sightseeing, but with a purpose.

Night Palace, Qichiyuan.

Yun Mujiu ran to the warehouse and closed the door.

I was alone, searching for something in there.

Before closing the door, she carefully looked around to see if there were any secret guards near her.

Yun Mujiu opened several dowry boxes, which contained supplies she had taken out from the doctor's system. She shuffled the contents of the boxes to make it look like she was searching in a hurry.

Then, she flipped through the medicines she bought in Tianyi Pavilion.

She squatted down in front of a large medicine box and opened the doctor system with her consciousness.

Yun Mujiu only then noticed a message from the system:

Actively rescue a patient who is poisoned by Gu and be rewarded with 20 achievement points.

Yun Mujiu's eyes lit up. Accumulating a certain amount of achievement points could not only be exchanged for some medicines and equipment, but also allow the doctor system to be upgraded and gain more advanced system functions.

She carefully took out ten dried dragon and tiger purple jade flowers from the doctor's system, each of which had a long row of small purple flowers or buds.

Yun Mujiu claimed that he knew some medical skills, so he must have some medical equipment.

Look, there is a set of tools for grinding medicines on the table in the warehouse.

Yun Mujiu held six small porcelain bottles in one hand and flowers in the other.

She placed the flowers and porcelain vase on the table, turned around and opened the warehouse door.

Coincidentally, Chunlan and the others followed her back to Qichiyuan.

Yun Mujiu did not dare to stop for a moment. She said, "I will grind the herbs into powder and pour it into the bottle. You can put the stopper on it. Remember to put it in securely."

Four maids walked in and nodded solemnly.

Yun Mujiu grabbed five flowers, first pressed the flower cluster into a ball with his hands, then put it in the mortar, held the pestle with both hands and began to grind it quickly.

In just a few breaths, Yun Mujiu had ground all the dragon and tiger purple jade flowers into powder.

It's not quantity that matters, but quality.

Just pour a small amount of powder into a large pot of herbal soup, and this Dragon Tiger Purple Jade Flower can exert great effects.

Yun Mujiu used a pestle to stir the powder in the mortar and poured it into six small bottles one by one.

Every time she poured medicine into a bottle, a maid would come over and stopper the bottle.

Finally, all six bottles of Dragon Tiger Purple Jade Flower powder were packed.

Yun Mujiu walked out of the room and saw several guards waiting outside.

Yun Mujiu pointed to the six guards and said, "Hurry up and send this Dragon Tiger Purple Jade Flower powder to Wei Bai and the others. Use it according to the dosage on the prescription I wrote."

The guards took the medicine bottle with both hands and said in a deep voice: "Yes, I obey your command!"

Yun Mujiu couldn’t even catch a breath now, she had to rush to Huayang Courtyard immediately!

Yun Mujiu looked at a guard holding his medicine box and said, "Please help me carry the medicine box to find the prince."

Yun Mujiu rolled up her skirt with both hands and ran straight to Huayang Courtyard.

The clothes she was wearing were rather formal and complicated, and her hair was tied up in a bun with a pearl hairpin, which made it inconvenient for her to run.

Yun Mujiu was running with tears streaming down her face. This was the first time she felt that Qichiyuan was so far away from Huayangyuan!

She didn't even have lunch!
