Your Highness, please stop chasing me.

Mu Qinghe said to Mu An with emotion, "Feng'er is quite lucky. If she hadn't happened to come to Yu Nan City, she wouldn't have met an ancient doctor!"

Mu An nodded and echoed, "Yes, the eldest young master fell ill in Yu Nan City. Fortunately, the ancient physician is also in Yu Nan City."

Thinking of this, Mu Qinghe added, "Mu An, go and prepare a thank-you gift to send to Prince Jing's residence. Changsheng said that when he went to borrow medicine, the old prince readily agreed, but he asked me to agree to one thing. I still feel uneasy. The young emperor has only just ascended the throne, and his power is not yet consolidated. I can't afford to choose the wrong side at this time. The Regent is not someone to be trifled with!"

“Yes, we’ve heard about the Regent’s methods in the military camp. I’ll go and make preparations now. Once the eldest son’s condition stabilizes, we can go and send him a thank-you gift.” Mu An nodded as well. He had always been by Mu Qinghe’s side and was considered his half-strategist. He had thought of this as well.

He then asked, "Master, what about the gift of gratitude from the ancient physician, for me?"

Mu Qinghe waved his hand and said, "I will personally go to the Treasure Pavilion to sound out Manager Liu's opinion on this matter. A person as capable and extraordinary as Gu Yi is probably not someone who can be thanked with simple gold and silver."

Mu An slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, I was too naive."

"Then I'll go prepare the gifts of gratitude from Prince Jing's residence." After saying that, he was about to leave when Mu Qinghe called him back.

"We still need to prepare a gift of thanks for the ancient physician. Gold and silver jewelry are essential, and I've already inquired about additional treasures beforehand, so it's not too late to prepare them later," Mu Qinghe said.

"Yes." After saying that, Mu An went down to prepare a thank-you gift.

In the Western Jade Kingdom, wealthy families have certain standards for their gifts of gratitude, so Mu Qinghe did not need to give any further instructions.

In addition to the gift he gave to the ancient physician, he also wanted to prepare another gift in person, which shows how much he valued the ancient physician.

I wonder what his expression will be when he finds out that the ancient physician he now values ​​is actually the fifth young lady who was kicked out of the manor by his eldest son?

Mu Xue added medicinal herbs to the water while observing Mu Feng's condition.

She thought to herself with a smile that if Mu Feng were conscious right now, his expression would be quite interesting. She still remembered how varied his expression was when she suppressed the poison for Ye Shangyuan.

Thinking of Ye Shangyuan, she shook her head, wiped her sweat, and muttered to herself, "What's wrong with me today? Why do I keep thinking about him?"

Ren Yuan was heating wine on the other side as Mu Xue instructed, and the whole room was filled with the aroma of wine.

He asked, "Master Gu, what did you say?" Because it was hot and he needed to concentrate, he didn't hear what Mu Xue said clearly.

Changsheng also looked up at Muxue; he was almost roasted alive by the fire.

Mu Xue gave an awkward smile and said, "I was just calculating the timing and medication, it's nothing, it's nothing."

She patted the powder off her hands, took a step back, and said, "Brother Ren, bring the wine over and pour it in."

Changsheng spoke up at the opportune moment, asking, "Sir, do I still need to keep the fire burning?"

Mu Xue tested the water temperature with her hand; it was already very hot. She hadn't given Mu Feng the Ice Muscle Pill, so the water temperature didn't need to be as high as it had been for Ye Shangyuan.

"No need to heat it up, but pay attention to the water temperature and keep it warm." Mu Xue instructed.

"Yes, Master Gu Yi." Chang Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that if he kept cooking here, he would cook the young master.

Ren Yuanqi picked up a large wine jar and walked over. He said, "Master Gu, please step aside, lest you get scalded by the splashing hot water."

"Alright, be careful too, Changsheng, step back first." After saying that, Muxue took a few steps back.

Changsheng quickly threw down the firewood in his hand and took several steps back.

Ren Yuan poured hot liquor into the wooden barrel at a steady pace.

Mu Feng felt like he was in dire straits, especially when the hot wine was poured over him. He could clearly feel something stirring inside his body.

This feeling inexplicably made him panic.

People often feel fear when faced with the unknown.

Mu Feng was already panicked by losing control of his body; he couldn't speak, see, or make a sound. All of this was the result of Mu Xue's needle prick, though of course, no one else knew except Mu Xue.

Ren Yuanlai held the wine back and forth several times, finally pouring all four jars of heated wine into the wooden barrel.

The wooden bucket was filled with water to about one-third full, just enough for Mu Feng to sit down to his waist. Now that all four jars of wine have been poured in, the water level is just above his neck, with only his head sticking out.

The aroma of wine had already filled the room, and the entire Red Maple Courtyard was filled with its rich fragrance.

Ren Yuan wiped his sweat, gulped down several mouthfuls of cold tea, and then asked, "Is it alright to cook Young Master Mu like this?"

Changsheng also looked at Muxue with curiosity.

Mu Xue shook her head and said, "This is just the beginning. Help me with the next part. Hold his head up so that water doesn't get into his mouth and nose. I'm going to start giving him acupuncture."

When Changsheng heard that the acupuncture was about to begin, he consciously returned to his previous position and continued to watch the fire.

The three of them looked at Mu Feng at the same time, and saw black lines of varying thicknesses running across his upper body.

Changsheng pointed at the black lines in astonishment and exclaimed, "What! What is this???"

Mu Xue rolled her eyes and said speechlessly, "Shut up, keep your fire burning. This is the route the toxins in your young master's body are traveling through."

Ren Yuan looked at Mu Xue with some surprise.

He had never seen anything like this before, but after hearing Mu Xue say that, he didn't ask any more questions, otherwise he would seem uncultured.

He even gave Changsheng a disdainful look.

Changsheng's face, already red from the fire, turned even redder.

After the three of them took their places, Mu Xue looked at Ren Yuan, who nodded and then held Mu Feng's head in his hands.

Mu Xue closed her eyes and mentally reviewed the acupuncture points and pathways for the procedure.

A moment later, she suddenly opened her eyes, a cold light flashed, and she quickly picked up six silver needles and stabbed them into Mu Feng's back with lightning speed.

She increased the pressure on her hand, and tiny specks of blood slowly began to appear on the tip of the silver needle.

As Mu Xue moved, Mu Feng suddenly trembled violently, and a pained expression appeared on his face.

The black line, which had been moving at a steady speed, seemed to have been stimulated and began to move at a crazy speed.

The originally regular route immediately became completely chaotic.

Mu Xue had no time to pay attention to the lines of the black needles. After inserting six silver needles, she quickly picked up four gold needles and inserted them into the back of Mu Feng's head at the same time.

Ren Yuan was astonished by the four needles. He dared not utter a sound and could only hold his breath and stare straight at Mu Xue.

His eyes became incredibly intense at that moment!
