Only when the moon was up and stars filled the sky did she finally wake up. She couldn't help but think back to what Duan Chengxuan had said; it was no more than a battle for power within the imperial family, and she was only a puppet with status. Everyone wanted to get some information from her.

She could not recall Empress Xu Shi from start to finish, but she had a feeling that Empress Xu Shi was a little strange.

Rubbing her aching head, just as she was about to get up, Yin Qiao rushed in from the door: "Young miss, you're finally awake! Qing Dai, quickly go heat up the food for young miss to eat."

"Tomorrow, send someone to fix all the houses, and then take a good rest in the courtyard. I want to go to Shi Shi Tang to stay for a few days." Gu Mingyan was supported by Yin Qiao to sit in front of a table and directly used her hand to feel her pulse.

The poison was hidden again.

However, she did not know the premise behind the poison at all. If the poison activated at the most crucial moment later, it would be hard to deal with, but Shi Shi Tang's gray-robed elder seemed to be rather experienced and might be able to help her.

"Miss, why do you not stop every day? It seems that you are not thinking about yourself." Yin Qiao heartbroken poured her a cup of warm water.

"If a person is still alive, it would be too boring if she rested every day." Gu Mingyan started laughing, wanting to flirt with Yin Qiao a little more after touching her chin. Yin Qiao hurriedly ran away with her hands covering her chin, looking for Qing Dai to complain to, making Gu Mingyan laugh even more happily.

After eating her fill, she could not sleep at night and went to the pharmacy in the dark. However, she found Cheng Yi and Cheng Er waiting at the entrance, and when he saw her coming over he immediately kneeled on the ground. "Your highness, please take care of your life, and don't continue testing the medicine."

"I'm not here to test the medicine. However, since you guys are here, why don't you come in and help me organize the medicinal ingredients on the list? At the same time, you should also prepare all the medicinal ingredients on the list and place them by my side. " Gu Mingyan pushed open the door to the pharmacy.

After a sleepless night, she refreshed herself and walked out of the pharmacy the next morning.

Cheng Yi and Cheng Er, on the other hand, felt that martial arts had never been this tiring before. The names of the medicines made them dizzy, not to mention that they weighed them one by one before placing them in Gu Mingyan's hands.

"I'm going directly to the Shi Shi Tang later." After Gu Mingyan finished speaking, she directly went to the kitchen to grab a steamed bun and directly left. Cheng Yi and Cheng Er had no choice but to follow her they did not know where Gu Mingyan got the energy from.

The moment she entered the Shi Shi Tang, Gu Mingyan immediately went to find the grey robed elder. The moment the grey robed elder saw her, he pulled her to the backyard and respectfully saluted her, "My respects to Princess of Jing …"

"Mister, what are you saying? Just think of me as an ordinary girl." Gu Mingyan hurriedly helped the person up and frowned, "Sir, where did you hear that from?"

"Fang Fang Fang came to find me earlier and said that King Jing had taken you away. The soldiers respectfully addressed you as' Royal Consort '." The grey-robed elder also quickly straightened his body. He had never expected that a wangfei like her would actually be proficient in medicine and would even be running out of the palace on a daily basis.

"Teacher probably didn't tell anyone else." Gu Mingyan playfully blinked her eyes.

"Of course not. After all, few people in the Princess of Jing have seen it." The gray-robed elder quickly shook his head. He was quite shrewd. He could certainly not talk about the matters of these nobles. If he couldn't, then he would just shut up. How could he talk behind the scenes?

My name is Gu Mingyan, Sir is the senior, you can just call me Yan Er, if Sir does not mind that I am inexperienced, I hope Sir can help me find medicine to temporarily suppress the poison in my body. Gu Mingyan went straight to the point.

My name is He Jin, everyone nearby calls me Mister He, but before I checked your pulse, I have been searched for ancient scrolls in private, but this poison's corrosion rate is extremely slow, and there is no need for it to be poisoned for a long time, it cannot be determined, it must be some kind of unique poison. Mr. He immediately began analyzing.

The two talked about medicine endlessly, after a while, because of the rain, the two of them sat in the back room, flipping through books, writing prescriptions, Gu Mingyan felt that she had gained a lot, Master He also felt that Gu Mingyan had her own unique insights, and the two got on immediately.

Ignoring all that was going on outside the window, it started to rain heavily. The shop assistant came over with a food box and only then did he interrupt them, seeing two people sitting next to a pile of books, holding a lot of herbs and listening carefully, even talking non-stop, until they did not even stop for a while. Then, with a loud bang, he smashed the food box onto the table: "Mr. He, Miss Yan Er, it's about time you ate, you guys have not eaten a single grain of rice."

"What's the time?" Mr. He suddenly raised his head.

Gu Mingyan lowered her head to look through the book, and saw that the ancient book had records of a medicinal herb in the Tianyan City, the name was Firefly Grass, the tip was red, and the root could be used to suppress the poison, but unfortunately, it was lost a hundred years ago. She helplessly shook her head and closed the book: "If this Firefly Grass could still be kept alive, it might still be useful to me."

The servant looked at Gu Mingyan helplessly: "Miss Yan Er, it's time to eat."

"It is already time to announce the time." He Jin stroked his beard and sighed, only then did Gu Mingyan realise that his stomach was already empty. After the two ate their fill, they continued to study, and since the shop assistant had no choice but to close the window and light the lamp, he also made two pots of tea.

After two hours, Gu Mingyan finally flipped through the ancient scrolls and found a formula to suppress the poison. It was mild in potency, but it required a large number of medicinal ingredients, and the quantity of the medicinal ingredients was unclear due to the passage of time.

"I can give this formula a try." He Jin agreed with the prescription.

"Indeed, but we need to consider the quantity of medicine. Although the medicinal properties are mild, if we don't use it properly, it will still be dangerous. In particular, you can't use too many Vajra Vines, or else we'll be in conflict with the other ingredients." Gu Mingyan nodded, she wrote down on the page and went to Shi Shi Tang to purchase some herbs.

"That's great. Let's end it here for today. In the future, if this old man encounters any difficult illnesses, I might need your help. " He Jin laughed and stood up, he was satisfied with Gu Mingyan.

"No problem. On the contrary, I'll have to trouble Mr. He to help me get these things. Next time, I'll take care of it myself." Gu Mingyan quickly climbed up the stairs. There were a lot of medical books in Shi Shi Tang, if she could read them all, it would benefit her a lot.

He Jin realised that she was extremely greedy, but he only laughed a few times and agreed quickly.

Arriving at the front hall, one of the servants suddenly rushed towards Gu Mingyan. Gu Mingyan held onto the servant when he raised his head, she saw a young noble who was drenched in blood and sat on a chair, staring at her: "Don't mess with me! Just give me the best medicine! "

Gu Mingyan's eyes lit up, wasn't this the Sir Qi Lin who paid the bill for her?

"Mr. He, this person doesn't have money!" The shop assistant hurriedly stood up and cried towards He Jin.

"The servants always bring money when I go out!" Since I took the medicine from you, you can just go to the Misty Rain Pavilion and ask my dad for money! "He's really blind!" Qi Lin slapped the table and stood up.
