The evil woman is arrogant and the cold emperor can't sleep at night

Shen Tangan handed the matter of reward over to Yunzhu and Xueji, who were the maids in the courtyard most familiar to them.

She only brought Mu Tao with her, closed the door, and while everyone was happy about the reward, she quickly changed into a simple dress, put on a veil, and hurriedly slipped out of the back door of the Marquis' Mansion.

"Miss, what are we doing in secret like this?"

Mu Tao followed her young lady nervously. Seeing her looking left and right in shock, she also looked around in fear.

Only when they reached a deserted alley did Shen Tangan dare to take off her veil. Her face was too conspicuous in Kyoto, and she must not let anyone see it.

"I'm going to the hospital."

She urgently needed contraceptive medicine. The loss of the toad's uterus seal was not a big deal and the matter could be kept secret from outsiders.

But if her belly gets bigger, no one can protect her, and the bud must be nipped in the bud.

"Miss, are you ill?"

Mu Tao became anxious when she heard this.

"No need to ask, just follow me."

Shen Tangan did not tell her about this, not because he did not trust her, but because he was afraid that she was too young and naive and could be tricked.

After walking through the alley, the two entered a clothing store.

When she came out again, she had changed into men's clothes and her face was darker due to rouge, but her eyes were still bright and clear, so beautiful that it was mesmerizing.

Shen Tangan was alone and did not bring Mu Tao with him, mainly because he wanted to keep her in the shop to cover for himself.

Who knows how many spies Shen Qingwan has in the Marquis' Mansion? Ever since she left the house, she has felt that someone is watching her, forcing her to use a trick to escape.

He randomly chose a clinic that looked neither big nor small, handed the prepared prescription to the medicine boy, and asked him to prepare the medicine according to the prescription.

Unexpectedly, the medicine boy took a glance at the prescription, looked her up and down, and spoke in an arrogant tone.

"Which quack doctor wrote this prescription? Do you know what it is used to treat? How can you use Chuanxiong and Angelica to remove dampness?"

"I'm just following the prescription, why are you so nosy?"

Shen Tangan became furious at his disdainful look and his tone turned cold.

No one has ever dared to doubt her medical skills. In the past, high-ranking officials and dignitaries had to beg her for treatment humbly. When would it be the turn of a pharmacist who doesn't even have the qualifications to practice medicine to sneer at her?

She made some changes to the prescription, so outsiders naturally couldn't tell that this prescription was for avoiding pregnancy and would only think it was an ordinary prescription for removing dampness and toxins.

"Your prescription doesn't work at all. You should ask our doctor to prescribe a new one!"

Unexpectedly, the pharmacist ignored her and threw the prescription directly to the ground with an extremely impatient tone.

Shen Tangan narrowed his eyes, raised his voice slightly, and said with an unhappy look on his face.

"I'm here to get some medicine!"

The medicine boy glanced at her with disdain and said, "You have to see a doctor to get medicine. We dare not get any random prescriptions from outside. If someone dies from taking the medicine, who will be held responsible?"

There has never been a saying in the clinic that he would not prescribe medicine. It is obvious that he wants to cheat people out of money.

"you……"

"Come quickly! Help!"

Shen Tangan was about to argue with him when he was interrupted by a sudden cry for help.

Looking back, I saw a group of people hurriedly carrying an old lady with a purple face and luxurious clothes.

A man who looked like a housekeeper led the way, and the maids followed behind him and placed the old lady on a hospital bed beside her.

"Doctor! Where's the doctor? Please save my old lady!"

"I'm coming!"

Judging from the old lady's momentum when she came, it was known that she was of high status, not to mention that it was an emergency, so several doctors on duty hurried forward to check.

The medicine boy who had just spoken disrespectfully to Shen Tangan also rushed over, and in an instant most of the people in the clinic were attracted to his attention.

Shen Tangan didn't want to join in the fun, but she saw that the old lady's face was obviously not right, and her lips were blue and purple, which she thought was due to fainting caused by heart palpitations.

If acupuncture is not given, I'm afraid the old lady will die.

"This is palpitations! The old lady is already... beyond help."

One of the doctors, who looked the oldest, was shocked after taking the patient's pulse, and then he waved his hands and sighed.

"You should go back and prepare for your funeral."

"Doctor! No! Please save my old lady!"

The housekeeper panicked upon hearing this. If the old lady had not suddenly fallen ill on the way back home, they would not have ended up in this small clinic.

If anything happens to the old lady, the Duke will definitely not let him go.

"The old lady is not in a state of panic, but fainting due to palpitations. She can still be saved."

Shen Tangan spoke calmly, looking at the old lady on the bed and narrowing his eyes.

The old lady's breathing was weak and her lips were already purple. If she continued to delay, even she would be unable to do anything.

In the spirit of saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, she couldn't just stand by and watch someone die.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked back and consciously made way for her.

She walked forward and was about to extend her hand when she was pushed away by the medicine boy beside her.

"How can you save him? The old doctor in our clinic said that he is hopeless. How can you save him by just getting some medicine?"

The old doctor was indeed a famous doctor in the area. He said that if he couldn't save the person, it was basically impossible. So how could other people care about a stranger who suddenly appeared and had never been seen before?

Faced with the medicine boy's difficulties, no one spoke up for her. Even the old doctor looked up at her with disdainful eyes and stroked his beard.

Shen Tangan was pushed and staggered. Her patience with this medicine boy had already reached its limit. Now he was provoked like this, she was so angry that she laughed.

Not bothering to pay attention to the suspicious looks of these people, he turned to look at the butler beside him and pointed at the medicine boy.

"You decide whether to save him or not? If I save the old lady, I won't charge you for the consultation today. Just break his dog legs!"

"What a joke! Do you have the ability to diagnose and prescribe medicine?"

The medicine boy didn't take her seriously at all, and he just thought it was ridiculous.

?The doctor with the most senior experience said that the old lady was beyond saving and even God could not save her.

He just didn't dare to say it out loud. Although he didn't know the old lady's identity, he knew they were not easy to mess with.

But facing Shen Tangan's provocation, he was not afraid at all, and even looked her up and down with disdain. From the way he looked at her, he knew she was not someone who could treat a disease.

Shen Tangan turned a deaf ear to this and stared straight at the leading butler. She knew that he was the one who could make the final decision among the group.

"Cure! As long as you cure the old lady of our Chengguo Mansion, the Duke will reward you handsomely!"

The housekeeper made up his mind and agreed immediately.

Even though he didn't know medicine, he could see that the old lady's condition was not good. If she was delayed any longer, she would only die. He couldn't try to save her life.

If I cure him, I will report it to the Duke and reward him handsomely. If I fail to cure him, he will be my best scapegoat.

When the name of Duke Cheng's Mansion came out, everyone was shocked, and even Shen Tangan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

Duke Chengguo was notoriously bad-tempered and reckless, and he would not give face to anyone except the emperor.

If she couldn't save the old lady today, she would probably not be able to return home alive.

But when has she ever been afraid of difficulties?

The medicine boy was shocked when he heard it for the first time, but then he thought, she didn't even know the medicinal properties of Angelica sinensis and Chuanxiong, how could she have the ability to cure the old lady of the Duke's Mansion who had one foot in the hell?

It's just a joke!
