Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Yang Jianwu only went to take a bath after being urged repeatedly by Liang Yan. After bathing, she secretly mixed folic acid tablets and calcium tablets of various flavors when no one was around, repackaged them in oil paper, and made them into honey pills for later use.

Puyang Xuan stood guard at the door, holding a bouquet of flowers and a blade of grass in his mouth. There hadn't been any sound of water for a long time; why hadn't he come out yet…?

After Lu Qiao finished dressing up, she came to find Yang Jianwu, only to find Pu Yangxuan standing guard at the door like a gatekeeper.

"Greetings, young master of Puyang."

Puyang Xuan didn't give any kind looks to women other than Yang Jianwu, and he just nodded reluctantly as a greeting.

Lu Qiao felt a little embarrassed; she didn't know whether to leave or stay.

Fortunately, Yang Jianwu heard the noise and opened the door. "Qiao'er, are you ready?"

Puyang Xuan shamelessly stepped forward, "Hey Jianwu, shall I go with you?"

Yang Jianwu acted as if she didn't see Puyang Xuan at all, not even sparing him a glance.

"Sword Dance, let me explain!"

Puyang Xuan chased after Yang Jianwu, but Yang Jianwu didn't want to say anything more and used a needle to freeze Puyang Xuan in place.

Lu Qiao sensed the subtle atmosphere between the two and didn't press the matter further.

"Okay, how are you feeling?"

"I'm all better now, let's go."

"Uh-huh."

Lu Qiao nodded repeatedly and left with Yang Jianwu. If they didn't leave soon, this iceberg would freeze them to death.

Once in the carriage, Lu Qiao was genuinely curious about what kind of conflict would arise between Pu Yangxuan, a "model man," and Jian Wu.

"Sword Dance, did you two have a fight?"

"No."

"Then how come you... are like strangers?"

Yang Jianwu sighed and looked out the window at the receding street scene.

……

A few days ago, after returning to the General's Mansion from Anguo Temple, Yang Jianwu was very happy and went to find Puyang Xuan, wanting to share with him the news that Yingbao had brought.

Unexpectedly, Yang Jianwu heard a woman's voice coming from inside Puyangxuan's house in the courtyard. Her heart tightened, and she naturally stopped in her tracks.

They couldn't hear clearly from inside the courtyard, but with guards and maids around, they weren't worried about what the two were doing, especially since it wasn't the kind of whining that was hard to hear.

Yang Jianwu trusted Puyang Xuan and was about to leave when, coincidentally, the woman suddenly cried out.

This shout instantly amplified Yang Jianwu's doubts.

Yuan Song was worried that Puyangxuan might meet with misfortune, so he led his men to break in.

Yang Jianwu stood at the door and, through the crack in the door frame, saw with her own eyes that Puyang Xuan was holding a woman in his arms.

Whether Puyang Xuan was tricked or did it intentionally, he touched Yang Jianwu's sensitive spot.

Anger and disappointment welled up inside her, and without saying a word, Yang Jianwu left.

……

"Sword Dance, what if Young Master Puyang is the victim? If you don't listen to his explanation, won't it cause some misunderstanding?"

At Yang Jianwu's urging, Lu Qiao would also read storybooks in his spare time. He knew that many misunderstandings were caused by not explaining them, and he was worried that this would create a rift between the two of them.

Yang Jianwu shook his head, still feeling frustrated.

"Qiao'er, Puyang Xuan's martial arts are excellent; there are few in Dongli who can defeat him..."

It's precisely because of his superior martial arts skills that he suffers...

Puyang Xuan had the medicine packet he had given him, and he also had Xiao Jin's aura on him, so ordinary poisonous creatures and insects could not get close to him.

In case I need to take Chinese medicine, I have a good detoxifying agent on my waist that I can take out at any time.

Even if someone deliberately fell into his arms, he could have pushed them away, but he didn't!

It was something that could have been avoided, yet it was allowed to happen. Wasn't that intentional?!

Lu Qiao voiced her guess.

"So, you believe that Young Master Puyang took the initiative himself..."

Yang Jianwu nodded slightly, "Mmm..."

The thought of the man who had been discussing marriage with her just a few days ago turning around and getting entangled with another woman filled Yang Jianwu with a dull ache.

Love is just a seasoning in life; if it hurts, it's better to be without it.

West Hall of the Seventh Prince's Residence

Nalan Lianyi forced herself to meet him.

"Sister is here, please have a seat."

Yang Jianwu helped Nalan Lianyi to a seat, and casually placed his hand on Nalan Lianyi's wrist to take her pulse. The pulse was floating and smooth like pearls rolling on a jade plate, and the system check showed no major problems.

Lu Qiao stood to one side, carrying a food box.

Why does your face look so yellow?

Nalan Lianyi touched her haggard face, "I've been vomiting so much lately, I can't eat anything..."

Yang Jianwu had no experience; all her knowledge came from theory.

"Didn't they say it would get much better in three months?"

In just four months, Nalan Lianyi has lost a lot of weight, which is definitely not a good long-term solution.

"The doctor also said that it will be fine once it gets a little bigger, so let's just bear with it a little longer."

Nalan Lianyi gently stroked her belly, her face full of love, and it was clear that she was looking forward to the child.

After exchanging pleasantries, a maid brought over medicine to help with pregnancy.

Nalan Lianyi reacts to the sight of the medicine bowl, and before even drinking it, she experiences a heart-wrenching dry heaving.

The head maid patted Nalan Lianyi's back tenderly, murmuring things like, "Little prince, be good and don't bother your mother."

Yang Jianwu was also somewhat worried about the situation, but the system could not detect anything unusual.

"Has Lianyi not gone out for a walk these past few days? Some exercise is good for both adults and children."

The head maid knew that Yang Jianwu was unmarried and assumed that she did not understand the hardships of pregnancy.

"Miss Yang doesn't know that pregnancy is very taxing on a woman's energy. Our Princess Consort is suffering from severe morning sickness and has no energy at all. How could she possibly go out?"

Yang Jianwu chuckled, "Are you taking advantage of her blind spot?"

"Don't pregnant women in ordinary households still do farm work? As long as they are healthy, appropriate exercise is very necessary, otherwise childbirth will be very difficult..."

Before Yang Jianwu could finish speaking, the head maid rolled her eyes and interrupted her.

“Miss Yang, you are an unmarried woman, how would you know these things? Don’t think that just because you are His Highness’s friend, you can talk nonsense here.”

Yang Jianwu's fist was quite hard, very good. It had been a long time since anyone had challenged her; she missed it terribly...

The head maid didn't notice Yang Jianwu's body temperature dropping and continued to say to Nalan Lianyi, "Your Highness, you must never be sincere to just anyone."

"Your health is currently inconvenient, and you are unable to serve Your Highness. Although those noble ladies who come to visit say they are here to congratulate you, everyone knows perfectly well what they are really up to..."

"Granny, watch your words!!"

Nalan Lianyi was displeased. If it were someone else coming to her door, she might have had ulterior motives, but Sister Yang was different.

"Sister Yang is a good friend of His Highness and me, so watch your words."

Nalan Lianyi glared at the head maid, warning her not to talk nonsense again.

The head maid clearly didn't take Nalan Lianyi's warning seriously and continued to kindly advise, "Your Highness, you are just too kind, which is why you are easily deceived."

You absolutely mustn't be fooled by those with ulterior motives, lest you end up doing their bidding for their benefit.

"Ha~"

Yang Jianwu couldn't help but sneer. Had this old woman lost her mind?!

If she and Mo Yu want to have anything going on, what business is it of anyone else?!
