The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

Situ Yaorao looked at him and actually thought his movements were quite beautiful.

Situ Yaorao took a look and it took half an hour.

At this time, the man also sorted out the medicinal herbs.

"You said, 'Divine Doctor, a slight error can lead to a huge error.' But why do other doctors always seek out herbalists?" Situ Yaorao was puzzled. Then Jian Bupo said indifferently, "So, they're not divine doctors yet. If you want to save others, you must first save yourself. A doctor who saves himself must be familiar with medicinal herbs and make friends with them. Of course, I've only heard of this."

As the man spoke, he poured Situ Yaorao a cup of tea.

The aroma of tea wafts through the air, making people feel at ease.

"Divine doctor, I've been waiting for you all morning. You should at least tell me what to do, right?" Situ Yaorao said to the man.

The Divine Doctor Bupo didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "Do you know why the City Lord planted these peonies?"

"Isn't it for the concubine?" Situ Yaorao asked suspiciously.

Bupo sneered, somewhat disdainfully: "How could a man who could endure the pain of cutting off the flesh of his own legs for his own glory and wealth be so uneasy over a woman? That's just an excuse."

"That is?"

"People say that a miracle doctor can bring the dead back to life. This is actually true. The city lord is of noble status now. But his leg has become his regret. If someone tells him at this time that his leg can be restored to normal, what do you think the city lord will do?" asked the miracle doctor Bupo.

"No matter what, you have to agree to it." Situ Yaorao said.

Fupo nodded, "Yes, that's right. And the method is those peonies. That person taught the city lord a magic skill. Although using these peonies will hurt his body, it can greatly increase his abilities. Moreover, new flesh will grow back on his legs."

"Isn't this a bit mysterious?"

"Yes, it is. But it is also true. Otherwise, do you think the city lord is sick to plant so many peonies? He clearly wants to ignore the people of the entire city." When Bupo spoke of this, his brows furrowed, as if he was disgusted. However, the indifference in his eyes betrayed him.

He didn't even bother to hide it.

He seemed uninterested in either the city's residents or the city lord. This made Situ Yaorao feel strange.

However, no matter how strange it was, Situ Yaorao still didn't ask. Everyone has their own secrets. If they were to be revealed, it would only create a rift between them. She was still counting on this person to save her life.

Thinking of this, Situ Yaorao suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart.

"The city lord is so fond of these peonies. If I go against him directly, I might die at his hands." Situ Yaorao frowned.

"Every year, a prince from the Imperial City comes here. One reason is to thank the City Lord for saving His Majesty, and the other is to inspect the city. Although His Majesty has handed this place over to the City Lord, Xunyang City is still very important to Lanlin. If anything goes wrong, His Majesty will be reluctant to leave. And coincidentally, in three days, the prince will come for inspection."

"Who is it?" Situ Yaorao asked.

Upon hearing this, Divine Doctor Bupo smiled and said, "Prince."

These two words instantly made Situ Yaorao understand. The doctor agreed to treat her and was waiting for her here.

"If you want to overthrow the city lord, you need these peonies as evidence. However, in this way, you can't use these flowers to prolong your life. So, if you want to overthrow the city lord, I'm afraid you need to find another way." Doctor Bupo reminded lightly.

"Didn't you say you would cure me?" Situ Yaorao frowned.

"I will treat you, but treatment always takes time. Not now. If you really want to survive, you'd better find the person who drank your blood."

"Don't I still have to rely on myself?" Situ Yaorao said with some disgust.

"If I weren't here, even if you ate all the peonies in the city, you would definitely die within a year. But I can let you live for three more years. Although I can't cure you fundamentally, I can at least find a glimmer of hope for you. If you don't want to, this deal will be considered as nothing." The tone of the Divine Doctor Bupo was very light.

Hearing this, Situ Yaorao gritted her teeth and said, "Three years is three years. It's better than having no way to survive." Situ Yaorao saw the matter very clearly. She had everything she needed except time.

As long as there is time, there is always treatment.

Besides, isn't there that blood? Although I don't know whose it is.

"That's straightforward." Divine Doctor Bupo was very pleased with Situ Yaorao's attitude, so he tossed her a jade bottle and a letter. "Inside this letter is evidence of the City Lord's secret dealings with Mingyue Country. Every year, the City Lord makes a deal with the people of Mingyue Country. As long as you can seize the items and people involved in this transaction, the City Lord will naturally anger His Majesty. Then, Xunyang City will be saved. As for these peonies, they're yours if you want them."

"Why give me this?" Situ Yaorao didn't expect that he would give her such a big hint.

"If you had hesitated, I wouldn't have given it to you. But you agreed to my terms so quickly, which made me feel much better. So I'll give it to you. As for the contents of the vial, if you secretly eat someone's peony flowers and feel unwell, take a drop. You probably won't feel the same way again."

"Thank you." Situ Yaorao said while holding the small bottle.

"It's just a transaction between you and me." The man looked indifferent.

"But you don't have to trade with me. As long as you are willing, there will be many people to help. But you helped me, who is in the most trouble. Shouldn't I thank you?" Situ Yaorao said.

Upon hearing this, Divine Doctor Bupo calmly tapped his cup and said, "I owe a favor to someone who has entrusted me with something. That person once told me that if someone poisoned by the Moonlight Poison ever comes looking for me, I should help them. That's all."

"Oh?" Situ Yaorao was surprised.

"You should go back to the inn. Try not to come to my flower garden again, so as not to be discovered. I don't want anyone to know that this matter has anything to do with me." said the Divine Doctor Bupo.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back now." After that, she stood up and walked out.

After going out, Situ Yaorao found Yu Sheng and left the flower garden with Yu Sheng.

"Did he make any rude requests?" Yu Sheng looked at Situ Yaorao and asked worriedly. Situ Yaorao smiled when she heard it and said, "No."

"Really? That's good. I always feel that this miracle doctor is too weird." Yu Sheng frowned. That miracle doctor always made him feel uneasy.

"I also think the miracle doctor is very strange, but Yusheng, sometimes we have to cooperate with others. This time, we are the ones asking for help, not him asking us for help. What's more, he has his calculations, and I have mine. It's not certain who will suffer the loss in the future. You can't be unable to understand these things." Situ Yaorao glanced at Yusheng, who looked unhappy.

Yu Sheng remained silent.

He naturally understood. In fact, if this matter were placed on him, he could have done a better job. However, his concern was too much, and he really didn't want Situ Yaorao to get into trouble.

Situ Yaorao understood Yu Sheng's thoughts a little. To be honest, if she didn't know that Yu Sheng didn't like her, she would have suspected that Yu Sheng had fallen in love with her.

However, whether this person cared about her or treated her well, his expression remained clear and bright, without a trace of sadness. This made Situ Yaorao feel at ease. And it was precisely because of this that she felt comfortable being friends with this person.

Situ Yaorao didn't know what position she held in Yu Sheng's heart, but at this moment, she couldn't help but want to remind him that she was not a child.

The two of them walked back to the inn in silence. The inn was now even quieter than before. Situ Yaorao called the waiter upstairs under the pretext of ordering food.

"Two guests, what would you like to eat today?" The waiter asked the two people staying here.

Situ Yaorao glanced at Yu Sheng and motioned him to ask. Yu Sheng did not complain, and looked at the second brother and asked, "The thing is, my brother and I have noticed that the people in this inn are more cautious today. What's going on?"

The second brother looked strange when he heard this: "You two don't know?"
