Hearing this voice, Cang Qing's body froze and he turned to look at the door in disbelief.

When he saw the slender figure at the door clearly, Cang Qing let out a roar and jumped down from the beam like a big cat with its fur standing on end.

Xu Junjun was startled by his shout and quickly took two steps back to avoid being stepped on by the panicked Cang Qing.

"You bastard!

Next time, if you climb the beam again, I will give you a black eye."

Cangyue caught up and slapped Cangqing on the head.

In front of Xu Junjun, Cang Qing was so ashamed and angry that his face turned red. He covered his head and couldn't say a word.

Xu Junjun blinked her eyes, stared at Cang Qing's blackened eyes, and spoke with concern:

"Can Master Cang still see?"

Hearing Xu Junjun's voice again, Cang Qing's heart began to beat wildly, but thinking of her relationship with the Regent, Cang Qing's face fell and he replied in a low voice:

"I can see. Thank you for your concern, Miss Xu."

Cang Yue was most afraid of this brat's nonsense, so she quickly squeezed in front of Xu Junjun:

"Why are you here?

Have you waited too long?

Come on, come on, I'm fine here, I'm going to make the pill with you now."

As he spoke, Cangyue grabbed Xu Junjun's wrist and walked out quickly, leaving Cangqing standing alone in the room, looking at the two of them with a wronged look on his face.

Xu Junjun was a little embarrassed, but when she saw Cangyue's face turned pale with anger, she couldn't help laughing.

This brother and sister are really funny.

Hearing Xu Junjun's laughter, Cangyue paused, looked back at his brother who was standing there like an idiot, let go of Xu Junjun and strode back.

Cang Qing was frightened by her aggressive look and instinctively hugged his head and yelled:

"Sister, if you hit me again I'll be really angry!"

Cang Yue stood in front of him, spreading his hands with a fierce look:

"Bring me the Gu-raising book I memorized last time!"

Cang Qing breathed a sigh of relief, hurried into the house, took out the written book on raising insects and placed it in Cang Yue's tender white palm.

Cang Yue grabbed the book with her backhand and glared at Cang Qing:

"Stay here quietly, I'll come back and deal with you later."

Xu Junjun and Cangyue walked out of the yard and looked back, very curious:

"Miss Cang, what happened between you and your brother?"

Walking out of the yard, no longer breathing the same air with his silly brother, Cang Yue Guan Gong's face finally returned to normal:

"It's okay, his skin is just itchy, I'll help him loosen it up.

By the way, now that we are so familiar with each other, you don’t have to call me Miss Cang anymore, just call me Cang Yue.”

Xu Junjun readily agreed:

"it is good.

From now on, don’t call me Miss Xu anymore, just call me Junjun.”

Cang Yue grinned:

"Okay Junjun."

The two walked out of the yard one after the other. Cang Yue handed the Gu-raising book to Xu Junjun. After she took it with a puzzled look on her face, she spoke:

"This book on raising Gu insects contains many methods for cultivating Gu insects, which is a well-known family heirloom in our Shen clan.

You are good at treating poisons, so you can try raising it for fun."

Xu Junjun was pleasantly surprised and couldn't put the book down:

"Thank you Cangyue."

Xu Junjun flipped open the book on raising insects and took a quick look. Looking at the detailed annotations and various names, he felt a surge of gratitude in his heart.

"It's such an important thing, you said you would give it to me, so I have to give you a gift in return."

Xu Junjun had nothing, and when he remembered that he had a few bottles of pills that he had just made, he decided to let Cangyue take a look at them later.

If Cangyue likes them, Xu Junjun plans to give them all to her.

In addition to elixirs, she is also generous in providing prescriptions as long as Cangyue wants them.

Cangyue smiled and nodded, her little face full of smiles. She held Xu Junjun's hand, and the two sisters ran forward.

Returning to Xu Junjun's yard, thinking about the mother-child Gu that had just been delivered, Xu Junjun went straight into the house, took out the black jar, and placed it in front of Cangyue.

Cangyue knocked on the bottle, opened the jar and took a look.

Seeing the two poisonous insects, one large and one small, jumping around inside, he nodded with satisfaction:

“Last time, we had already made the mother-child elixir medicine coat, which was the first step completed.

Now, we just need to separate the insect, wrap it in the medicine coat using the Shen clan's secret method, and ensure it survives inside the coat. That's it."

After going through so much hardship and still not being able to clear his name, he finally reached this point. Xu Junjun stared at the two poisonous insects crawling all over the black jar with an excited expression:

"Okay, let's do it now!"

Cang Yue tilted his head to look at her, then smiled with his mouth covered:

"Don't worry, we still have to prepare some things before that.

Today we will go out of the house and see if we can gather the other things. If we are lucky, we can make this mother-child pill as early as the day after tomorrow."

Xu Junjun's eyes lit up like stars, flashing and blinking:

"Okay, wait, I'll get the silver right away."

Cangyue and Cangqing are from the Shen clan. Xu Junjun learned from Jun Xiaochen that there is not much silver circulating in their clan.

Cangyue and Cangqing are from the Shen clan, so they don’t have enough money to buy things.

After all, they were doing things for him. Thinking that he might have to treat Cangyue to a meal later, Xu Junjun readily took out a thousand taels of silver, solemnly entrusted the mother-child Gu jar to the palace guards, and dragged Cangyue to the street.

When the personal guards learned that Xu Junjun was going to leave the house, they followed him closely, secretly eliminating any hidden dangers for the two of them.

The weather is fine today and the streets of Huangdu are crowded with people.

After Cang Yue was taken out of the house by Xu Junjun, he went straight to several of the most famous pharmacies in the imperial capital.

Standing in front of a medicine shop, Cang Yue raised her head and looked around. The noisy voices in her ears almost drowned her, and the various stalls on the street almost dazzled her.

Cangyue was cheered up. After coming to the imperial capital for so long, this was the first time he was able to leave the house with the help of Xu Junjun.

Xu Junjun glanced at her, smiled, and pulled her forward.

The two of them bought things as they walked along the way, and the smile on Cangyue's face never faded.

The two were so excited that they were like wild horses running around in all directions in the Imperial Capital Medicine Shop. Several guards were almost lost in the crowd and could not help but wipe their sweat as they moved closer to the two.

According to Cangyue's instructions, the two of them bought everything one by one. When they finished buying, Xu Junjun discovered that some of the things needed to make the Zimu Pill were not medicinal materials at all.

For example, the autumn dew they are looking for now, the morning dew collected on the day of the beginning of autumn last year, if Cangyue hadn't mentioned it, she would never have thought that this was needed to make the mother-child pill.

After running for a long time and asking in several places, he still couldn't find the thing. Xu Junjun had no choice but to call out the royal guards who were following him.

After hearing Xu Junjun's request, the guards looked at each other in confusion. Finally, one of them stood up and saluted Xu Junjun:

"Miss Xu, the Qiulu you mentioned, I once heard Commander Wei mention that there is one in the mansion of a master in the imperial capital.

If you need it urgently, I will send someone to that gentleman's house immediately."

Xu Junjun nodded in surprise:

"Send someone to check how much silver is needed and have them send someone to the palace to get it."

The personal guard nodded and asked the remaining few to continue protecting Xu Junjun and Cangyue, and disappeared in the crowd on the street in the blink of an eye.

Now that Qiulu had been found, Xu Junjun felt relieved and looked at Cangyue:

“What else?

Today we have collected everything together."

Cangyue tilted her head and thought for a while, the silver chain on her head flashing and reflecting tiny rays of light in the sunlight.

"Almost. The remaining items should be available in the palace."

Xu Junjun was even happier and said to the guards behind him who were holding things:

"Then you guys go back first. Cang Yue and I will go for a walk on the street."

The guards were in a dilemma:

"Miss Xu, the master has ordered that as long as you leave the house, we must protect you every step of the way and are not allowed to leave without permission."

Xu Junjun clicked his tongue, clearly impatient but also knowing that they had no say in the matter.

"Then you can follow me, but it's inconvenient to carry things around. You can arrange for someone to take them back first."

The guards were obedient now and nodded in agreement, and asked the one with the worst martial arts skills to take the purchased things back to the palace.

Xu Junjun had something important to do just now, and she saw that Cangyue was very curious about everything on the street, so she couldn't take her out for a walk.

Right now, with nothing else to do, Xu Junjun held Cangyue's hand and flew through the busiest street in the imperial capital without any burden, buying more than a dozen snacks and stuffing them into Cangyue's arms.

After walking down the street, Cangyue seemed to have opened up a new world. She did not show any sign of maturity in front of Cangqing. Her eyes lit up again and again, and she was as surprised as a child who had just turned sixteen.

Xu Junjun felt itchy in her heart. In terms of mental age, she was much older than Cangyue. After spending these few days together, she already regarded Cangyue as a half-sister.

Now, taking her to play in the imperial capital, she looked like a little girl who had just seen the world and was happy to see everything. Xu Junjun was also very happy and visited almost all the stalls that she found delicious.

However, this also resulted in them staying outside for too long and returning to the palace even later than Jun Xiaochen.

Something happened in the camp outside the capital today. Jun Xiaochen came out of the palace and went to the suburbs to deal with everything. When he returned, he summoned his personal guards to ask, his brows furrowed:

"Jun'er hasn't returned home yet?"
