Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 321

Shen Lingjun then began to treat Chu Tianming.

Since Lady Changguo said that they would do their best to obtain any medicinal herbs needed, Shen Lingjun naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony.

She wrote a long list for the Marquis of Changguo, which was full of expensive rare and precious medicinal herbs.

We should dig out as many good things as possible from the Chu family's storeroom.

Shen Lingjun declared that she was using a unique, secret method to treat the illness and that no one should be present to watch, so she chased away Marquis Changguo and the others. She remained alone in the room, then happily accepted the precious medicinal herbs that had been delivered and stored them all in her spatial storage.

As for Chu Tianming, she casually slipped him an antidote and left him there unattended. She then went about resting, drinking tea, and eating snacks.

Chu Tianming's left arm was poisoned by her, and although it looks serious, it's actually just a matter of getting an antidote.

Of course, her left arm is definitely useless, but it doesn't have to be amputated. Shen Lingjun's previous statement was just a prelude to her exorbitant demands.

Marquis Changguo and the others waited anxiously outside the door, but none of them dared to urge or ask.

This was Chu Tianming's only hope. They were all afraid of displeasing the divine doctor and causing him to refuse treatment, which would be the end of them.

Fortunately, Shen Lingjun did not arouse their suspicion. That evening, she came out of the room.

He said to Lady Changguo, who had been waiting outside, "Lady Marquis, your son's high fever has subsided, and the swelling on his left arm has gone down. He is now out of danger. You can go in and see him and feed him some rice porridge or other liquid food."

Lady Changguo was overjoyed and rushed into the room.

Just as Shen Lingjun had said, Chu Tianming's body temperature returned to normal, and the swelling that had previously swollen his left arm, left shoulder, and even half of his body had completely subsided. His breathing also became steady, and his complexion improved considerably.

Lady Changguo was overwhelmed with gratitude towards Shen Lingjun, almost kneeling before her: "Divine Physician! Thank you so much for saving my life!..."

Shen Lingjun maintained her composure and said, "Alright, it's getting late. Please have someone prepare a room for me, Madam. I'll stay at the Marquis of Changguo's residence for now, just like last time, until your son has recovered."

Lady Changguo immediately agreed, "Yes! Yes! The divine physician can stay wherever he wants!"

The next day, Chu Tianming's condition improved again; the infection in his left arm had stopped worsening, and he woke up in the afternoon.

He was very weak at this time, and the Marquis of Changguo and his wife did not dare to tell him that his left arm was already useless, so they coaxed him to rest and recuperate first.

Shen Lingjun also received the one million taels of silver she wanted.

When Marquis Changguo handed her the silver notes, his heart was bleeding: "This is the divine doctor's one million taels of medical fee. Thank you, divine doctor, for saving my son's life."

Shen Lingjun admired his pained expression and felt he could eat half a bowl more rice tonight: "You're too kind, Lord Marquis."

This time, I only spent 20,000 taels and earned 1 million taels. This business is really exciting!

......

The residence of Princess Pingkang.

"What? That bitch is still alive?"

Princess Pingkang looked surprised: "Is she sick? Is she seriously ill?"

A subordinate cautiously replied, "No... We've been keeping an eye on the Yongning Marquis's residence for several days, and there's been no news of the Yongning Marquis's wife being seriously ill. Yesterday morning, I even saw her leave the residence and head out of the city. She looked perfectly healthy and normal, without a trace of illness."

“That’s impossible…” Princess Pingkang looked puzzled.
