Water Reflects Peach Blossoms

Chapter 56 Yunzhiyu (56)

Master Yue said in a clear and gentle voice: "It's okay, it's just a name."

He looked at Gong Yunzheng, not wanting to have too much contact with her, and said straight to the point: "The deal between you and me is complete. You said you would forget about that matter and would not come to me again because of it."

"What thing?" Gong Yunzheng let him know that he had completely forgotten about that incident.

Seeing Master Yue's expression startled, she explained the reason for looking for him: "Sorry to bother you so late at night, I just wanted to ask you a question."

Master Yue: "What?"

Gong Yunzheng asked the question in his heart: "What kind of poison can't Baicaocui cure?"

Young Master Yue lives in the Moon Palace in the back mountain all year round. His medical skills are beyond ordinary people. More importantly, the number of ancient medical books in the Moon Palace far exceeds that in the Zheng Palace. The expensive medicinal materials purchased by the palace will also be supplied to the Moon Palace first.

What the Moon Palace has may not necessarily be present in the Zheng Palace, and what the Moon Palace does not have will definitely not be present in the Zheng Palace.

This is also the reason why Gong Yunzheng made a private appointment with Master Yue.

In response to this question, Master Yue didn't even need to think before answering: "There is no poison that Baicaocu can't cure."

"The saying that a hundred herbs can cure a hundred poisons is not a joke."

Gong Yunzheng paused for a moment, "What if there really is a poison that Baicaocui can't cure?"

"Impossible." Master Yue asserted, "Unless it's not poison."

Gong Yunzheng pressed on, "If it's not poison, then what is it?"

"Yes..." Master Yue suddenly shut up, his handsome face expressionless: "I'm just guessing."

Gong Yunzheng saw through it instantly: "Is it about the second level of the trial in the back mountain?"

Young Master Yue felt a pang of anxiety: "..."

Master Yue: "You think too much."

"This is the only thing you know about medicine that you can't tell me," Gong Yunzheng asserted. "You majored in medicine, so the second level of the back mountain trial will definitely require some knowledge, even if you're skilled in bladework. Generally speaking, it will be about pharmacology."

Young Master Yue calmly refuted Gong Yunzheng's words: "There is no direct connection between the field I am good at and the trials in the second domain."

"You're forcing the two together like this. It doesn't make any sense at all."

"Besides medicine, there's martial arts." Gong Yunzheng's thoughts expanded instantly. "You only have these two. If I want to teach you both, you should learn medicine first and martial arts later."

"When Brother Shang Jiao challenged the first realm trial, he went alone, but for the second realm trial, he brought his personal Green Jade Servant. If the exam is pharmacology, using the Green Jade Servant as a tester of the medicine is most appropriate to test the character of the challenger."

Perhaps the second level is a test of one’s character?

After a moment of doubt, Gong Yunzheng continued, "But Brother Shangjiao has been taking Baicaocui. Yuanzheng even told him the recipe for Baicaocui. Even if he doesn't have Baicaocui on him, he can still make some in the Moon Palace to save his Green Jade Servant."

"Unless, that thing isn't poison."

Unexpectedly, she could infer all this with just one sentence. Master Yue felt that the woman in front of him put a lot of pressure on him.

He seemed to have returned to the plan of sending Yunque out of the palace again, and felt panic when she discovered him without any warning.

"It's not poison, it could also be a Gu." Young Master Yue said perfunctorily.

Gong Yunzheng's voice turned cold. "A person who has been poisoned by a Gu will have a different pulse than an ordinary person. If it is a Gu, it will not escape the doctor's detection."

"It's not a Gu."

There was no Gu in Yun Weishan's body, and his pulse showed no signs of poisoning.

It's neither a Gu nor a poison.

It can only be medicine.

Is it possible that there is a drug in the world that is harmless to the human body but can cause symptoms of poisoning?

"Why do you ask this suddenly?" Young Master Yue pondered. "Or did Gong Yuanzheng encounter someone who was deeply poisoned but couldn't use Hundred Herbs Extract to detoxify him?"

Gong Yunzheng shook his head in denial and said slowly, "I just thought of Yun Que."

"Back then, Yun Que was caught sneaking into the palace to steal Baicao Cucumber. I once visited her in the dungeon. When I asked her, she revealed that she was poisoned and had little time left. She would not reveal a single bit of information about Wu Feng, so I let her die."

At that time, Gong Yunzheng thought that the poison in Yun Que had been cured by Master Yue, who used her as a drug tester. Now, after seeing that Yun Weishan was not able to take Baicaocui, he finally realized it.

Maybe Yunque was not detoxified by Master Yue.

But the poison did not take effect due to some other reasons.

If it was just a medicine, Master Yue would have no reason to hide it from her. When it came to pharmacology, the only reason he had to hide something from her was something related to the Second Domain Trial.

But how could the second domain trial of the palace gate be related to the medicine that Wufeng fed to the assassin?

If there is a connection, these two drugs would be of the same origin.

Gong Yunzheng said this, but Master Yue didn't believe it at all.

Seeing Gong Yunzheng's deep eyes in thought, and fearing that she might have discovered the secret of the trial in the back mountain, Master Yue said, "As Yunque is my medicine man, the poison she was poisoned with was naturally cured by me."

"Then I have no problem." Gong Yunzheng looked at the bright and beautiful Yue Gongzi under the moonlight and said without revealing any flaws, "Goodbye."

Looking at the woman holding the lantern who was gradually walking away, his gaze fixed on the light and shadow cast by the warm yellow light, Master Yue's thoughts went back to the days two years ago when he planned to make Yun Que fake her death and thus free her from Wu Feng's control.

On the shore of Half Moon, hearing the sound coming from behind, Skylark turned around and gave him a cute and lovely smile.

In the sunshine, under the petals blown by the wind, it was the most beautiful smile he had ever seen.

It was also the happiest and most carefree time for Yunlark.

He and Skylark planned that after a few days, Skylark would take cicada grass and enter a state of suspended animation. He would then hang Skylark above the palace gate and tell Wufeng that Skylark was dead. He would also send people to guard Skylark to prevent Wufeng from taking his body away.

After three days, when Wufeng thinks there is no possibility of survival for the person, he will let Yunque down and let him take the antidote for the winter cicada grass. Then Yunque will be able to live freely in the palace gate and will no longer be threatened by Wufeng.

He sat with Yunque and imagined a bright future.

At this moment, a sharp cry from a Saker Falcon made him feel suddenly uneasy. Looking at the snow-white figure he had never seen before flying over and landing on the railing, he walked forward and took off the mailbox on the Saker Falcon's ankle.

If you don't want your plan reported to the elders, meet me at midnight in the maple forest in the front mountain.

Holding the letter tightly in his hand, Master Yue couldn't figure out where the careful plan had been leaked.

At night, it is midnight.

He went alone to the maple forest in the front mountain, where he met Gong Yunzheng, who was wearing a green dress and holding a lantern, waiting among the shadowy maple trees.
