Your Highness, please stop chasing me.

"I've had people distract them. As long as she's in Yu Nan City, Prince Jing's heir will definitely find her," Ye Shangyuan stated the facts.

"So what do you mean?" Cang Lin asked.

“Come back to the capital with me. I need her to suppress my poison,” Ye Shangyuan said.

"But I heard that you have a disciple of the Immortal Medicine Valley named Lin Jiu by your side, and he's been helping you suppress the poison," Cang Lin said with amusement.

Leng Quan was startled. Only people in their Wangfu knew about Lin Jiu's matter. How could outsiders know?

With a wave of his hand, Ye Shangyuan had no choice but to retreat.

“But she’s the only one who can cure my poison,” Ye Shangyuan said.

"You should wait for her to come out and ask her about this. I can't make decisions for her; I have to listen to her." Especially when he said the last few words, Cang Lin's smile almost overflowed.

Leng Quan despised Cang Lin's attitude the most, and he said, "Of course Miss Xue will go with our master, is that even a question?"

"Hmph!" Cang Lin sneered.

Before he could say anything more, the door creaked open.

Mu Xue walked out, looking exhausted.

She was slightly surprised to see Ye Shangyuan outside the door, and she said, "What are you doing here, Brother Ayuan?"

"I came to see you," Ye Shangyuan said casually.

The moment he saw Mu Xue again, all his emotions vanished, leaving only joy.

"Brother Ayuan, wait for me." Mu Xue waved to Wang Baiqi, who was standing not far away.

Wang Baiqi strode forward and asked, "Miss, how is Ze'er?"

"Is the hot water ready?" Mu Xue asked.

"It's all ready, the water's been kept hot," Wang Baiqi said.

"Let's carry it inside." After saying that, she turned to Cang Lin and said, "Uncle, it's your turn."

She said to Ye Shangyuan, "Brother Yuan, please wait for me outside. It will be another hour."

“Okay. I’ll wait for you here,” Ye Shangyuan said.

Mu Xue turned and closed the door. Leng Quan stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, let's go sit in the pavilion and wait."

Seeing this, Wang Baiqi quickly stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, this way please."

Ye Shangyuan didn't try to be brave; he didn't go far, but sat in the pavilion, where he could see the door directly.

That way, he can see Mu Xue as soon as she comes out.

Once the door was closed, Cang Lin started rambling on and on.

“Does this regent have a dog’s nose? It’s so sensitive,” he said.

Mu Xue glanced at him and said, "Didn't we tell him when we went to the Cangmang Mountains to find snake gallbladders? It's normal for him to find them."

“That’s true, but you have your uncle protecting you, so why is he looking for you so persistently?” Cang Lin asked.

Mu Xue simply ignored him.

She took the fan from his hand and said, "Put Young Master Wang into the wooden tub."

"Okay." Cang Lin obediently picked up Wang Xuanze and walked towards the wooden tub. As soon as he got close, he was overwhelmed by the heat from inside the tub.

He suddenly exclaimed, "Holy crap, are they skinning a pig? It's so hot!"

His hand couldn't withstand the water's surface even though it had only touched it accidentally.

He hesitated for a moment before deciding not to throw Wang Xuanze in directly.

Mu Xue instantly wanted to throw Cang Lin out. She suddenly missed the obedient Mu Hu.

"Shut up and let them in," Mu Xue said coldly.

"Oh." Seeing that Mu Xue was angry, Cang Lin quickly and obediently put her down in the water.

Cang Lin was scalded and kept shaking his hand, while Wang Xuanze was completely unharmed; his body wasn't even red from the burn.

"Hey, that's strange. How come he wasn't burned? There's not a single red mark on his body!" Cang Lin exclaimed in surprise, as if he had discovered a new continent.

Mu Xue brought over the medicine she had prepared earlier, poured it all in at once, and then kindly explained, "The Blackfin Snake is of a cold and yin nature. Although he has used the snake gall, the cold and yin energy in his body must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with once it seeps into his bone marrow."

"So even if many people are cured of snake venom, they will still suffer from cold poisoning?" Cang Lin said, stroking his chin.

“Yes, so many people only know that they need to cure the snake venom, but they don’t remove the cold poison in time, so in the end it’s all in vain,” Mu Xue said.

"As expected, our little Xuexue is still the best!" Cang Lin said.

"Keep an eye on the fire, don't let the water temperature drop. I'm going to rest for a bit," Mu Xue instructed.

"I know, you should take a rest," Cang Lin urged.

Sure enough, an hour later, Wang Xuanze's face began to flush and he started to sweat.

After observing for a moment, Mu Xue said to Cang Lin, "Get him out. It's ready."

Cang Lin wiped the sweat from his forehead. In the sweltering summer heat, he felt like he was being roasted alive by the fire.

By the time Wang Xuanze was cleaned up and lay in bed, Cang Lin and Mu Xue were exhausted.

Mu Xue opened the door wearily, took a step back, and said, "You can come in now."

Wang Baiqi couldn't wait and rushed into the room.

Ye Shangyuan stood up the moment Mu Xue opened the door, but he did not approach.

This is a matter between Mu Xue and the Wang family; it's not too late for him to contact her after Mu Xue has finished her work.

Anyway, the person has already been found.

"Miss, what's wrong with Ze'er?" Wang Baiqi asked in a low voice.

"He's asleep, he's very tired. He'll wake up soon," Mu Xue said.

"Thank you so much for saving my life, Miss. My Wang family will definitely keep our promise!" After saying that, Wang Baiqi knelt on one knee and solemnly said, "Wang Baiqi greets Miss."

He bowed his head respectfully.

"The fact that Patriarch Wang can keep his promise shows that he is an upright and honorable person," Mu Xue said with a smile.

Wang Baiqi gave Uncle Wang a wink, and Uncle Wang presented a small box with both hands.

Wang Baiqi opened the box and took out a crystal-clear white jade pendant.

He solemnly raised his hands above his head, knelt on one knee again, and said, "Miss, this is the order from the head of my Wang family. Please accept it."

Mu Xue didn't stand on ceremony with him. Her goal was to make the Wang family her allies, so she accepted the token without hesitation.

Wang Baiqi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Mu Xue accept the token.

After meeting the two powerful figures behind Mu Xue, he was truly at a loss, and he was also afraid that Mu Xue would look down on his Wang family.

Rather than saying that Mu Xue needed the Wang family as her support, it would be more accurate to say that the Wang family needed Mu Xue as their backer.

Ye Shangyuan and Leng Quan, who were outside the door, could hear it clearly.

Mu Xue had no intention of hiding it from the two of them.

Leng Quan sighed inwardly, thinking that this Xue girl was truly an extraordinary person.

In just a few short days, she has already taken the Wang family under her control!

He whispered, "Master, Miss Xue has given the order to become the head of the Wang family. Could it be that she wants to become the head of the Wang family?"

Ye Shangyuan said, "The family head's token has always been in the hands of the family head, but there is another situation: once a family attaches itself to another power, it will offer up its family head's token."

Lengquan suddenly realized.

He exclaimed, "This Wang family head is quite bold, actually acknowledging a girl under thirteen as his master!"

Ye Shangyuan glanced at him sideways and coldly reminded him, "The thirteen-year-old girl you mentioned is an ancient physician who can refine fifth-grade pills."

Leng Quan instantly felt as if his own prince had plunged an arrow into his heart.
