The Legend of the Medical Concubine

Chapter 17 Ruoxue's Clever Response

The sky in the capital was gloomy, as if foreshadowing the coming of a storm. In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lin Ruoxue sat quietly in her room, holding a book in her hands, but her eyes revealed a hint of worry.

Since she successfully resolved Su Yao's difficulties at the banquet, she knew that she had aroused the jealousy and hostility of more powerful women. She understood that she would face more conspiracies and challenges in the days to come.

However, Lin Ruoxue was not intimidated by these difficulties. She knew that in this complex world, only by keeping calm and witty can she cope with various crises.

At this moment, Xiao Tao rushed in. "Miss, it's bad, there is a group of people outside who say they are here to cause trouble for you." Xiao Tao said anxiously.

Lin Ruoxue put down the book in her hand, stood up, and her eyes revealed a hint of determination. "Don't panic, let's go and see what's going on first." Lin Ruoxue said.

Lin Ruoxue and Xiao Tao arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, only to see a group of women standing there menacingly. The woman in the lead was Su Yao, with a smug smile on her face.

"Lin Ruoxue, do you think you can sit back and relax just because you won against me by chance at the banquet? Today, I'm going to let you know how powerful I am." Su Yao sneered.

Lin Ruoxue looked at Su Yao and smiled. "Miss Su, I don't know why you keep targeting me. I'm just a little concubine who just wants to live a peaceful life. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can just say it and we can discuss it properly." Lin Ruoxue said.

Su Yao became even more angry after hearing what Lin Ruoxue said. "Don't pretend to be innocent here. You, a concubine's daughter, dare to steal our limelight. This is unforgivable. Today, I will discredit you." Su Yao said.

After that, Su Yao waved her hand, and the women behind her took out some things. Some were notes slandering Lin Ruoxue, and some were some strange herbs.

"Everyone, look, this Lin Ruoxue is not a miracle doctor at all. She is just a liar who uses some strange herbs to deceive people." Su Yao said loudly.

People around began to talk about it, and some people began to doubt Lin Ruoxue. Lin Ruoxue looked at Su Yao and knew in her heart that this was another conspiracy of hers.

"Ms. Su, there is no evidence for your groundless accusations. You say I'm a liar, but what evidence do you have?" Lin Ruoxue said calmly.

Su Yao was speechless after hearing Lin Ruoxue's words. She didn't expect Lin Ruoxue to respond to her accusations so calmly.

"Huh, evidence? Look at these herbs, they are just ordinary herbs and can't cure diseases at all. But you use them to deceive people, isn't this evidence?" Su Yao said.

Lin Ruoxue looked at the herbs and smiled. "Ms. Su, your knowledge of herbs is really superficial. Although these herbs are common, they can cure many diseases if they are properly matched. I can demonstrate the effects of these herbs for everyone on the spot." Lin Ruoxue said.

After that, Lin Ruoxue asked someone to bring some tools and began to demonstrate the effects of these herbs. She skillfully matched the herbs together and then boiled them. After a while, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the air.

Lin Ruoxue handed the boiled medicine to a sick person. After the person drank the medicine, he soon felt much better. Seeing this scene, the people around were all amazed at Lin Ruoxue's medical skills.

Su Yao's face turned very ugly. She didn't expect Lin Ruoxue to be able to resolve her conspiracy so cleverly. She knew that she had failed again today.

"Lin Ruoxue, don't be so proud. I won't let you go." After Su Yao finished speaking, she turned around and left with her people.

Lin Ruoxue looked at Su Yao's back and felt relieved. She knew that she had successfully dealt with the crisis again. But she also understood that the road ahead was still long and she had to stay vigilant at all times.
