2436 Won’t Let Him Off
The female herbalist Qingqing lowered her head. Her facial features were not particularly outstanding, but she was young and her skin fair. She looked refreshing and delicate like a trickling creek. She had an air of tranquility.
Empress Liu’s gaze turned sharp. “Spit it out.”
Qingqing first curtsied to Empress Liu while keeping her head lowered. Afterwards, she explained, “Your Majesty the Empress, there is something strange about the princess’s injuries. Someone has administered a poison that amplifies one’s pain by twenty times no matter what kind of medicine is applied. This is why the princess has been feeling intense pain the entire time.”
“But this kind of poison only affects one’s pain. It will dissipate on its own in three days.”
Speaking of which, this poison was actually not that terrifying.
She found it exceptionally strange. This poison could not cause any substantial harm at all.
“What??” Empress Liu was enraged. She stood up from the edge of the bed at once. “Then what are you still doing? Hurry and make an antidote to dispel the princess’s poison!”
“Reporting to Your Majesty the Empress. This humble official cannot detoxify this kind of poison that stimulates the nerves. I can only temporarily use some methods to alleviate the princess’s pain.”
Frankly speaking, this kind of nerve agent was only targeted at making the person feel pain. There was not much other danger.
Empress Liu’s expression changed when she heard this. She gritted her teeth. “It must be Rong Yue, it must be that punk’s doing!”
“I won’t let him off!”
I won’t let him off! A sinister light surfaced in Empress Liu’s eyes.
Empress Liu turned around and glared at the female herbalist Qingqing. “Hurry and help the princess alleviate her pain.”
“Yes, Your Majesty the Empress.”

On the other end, Duan Yue was informed that because the empress was feeling unwell from a cold, the emperor had ordered that they stay in Pingshan Town for two more days.
This news caused him to snigger.
Jiankang’s body was not fit to travel right now, but if Empress Liu thought that Jiankang was going to recover after two days, she was truly too naive!

The sound of wind gusted past.
The afternoon sky was clear, and the air refreshing. Only wisps of white clouds drifted in the azure sky.
They were in the most northern part of the Ultramarine Province. There was little human activity here, so our dear Seventh Yan flew without restraint. Not many people would be able to see them.
So he was very jubilant!
Qiao Mu was sitting in Crown Prince Mo’s lap while studying a map provided by the Ultramarine Province guards. She pointed at a location and said, “If we take this route, it will still take four or five days of flying to get back to the small town where we first entered the Divine Province.”
“We’ll head straight for South City.” Mo Lian nuzzled her fuzzy head with his chin. “If my guess is correct, Hu Dequan should be waiting for us there.”
Hu Dequan was the capable Eunuch Hu who served his old man.
He had probably given everyone a scare by leaving on his dragon without a word half a month ago, but he had not been in the mood to speak nonsense with Hu Dequan, Fang Su, and them at that time. His heart had long not been in South City.
Qiao Mu couldn’t help but be at a loss when she thought of that screwy.
The first thing she did upon returning to her physical body might garner a laugh.
She suspiciously collected all the various talismans she had finished drawing and tossed into her inner world. Afterwards, she sealed them in a box with a binding talisman…
The little fellow felt that there was a need to do this.
Otherwise, who knew whether these talismans might go nuts one day and suddenly jump out to target her?
