Chapter 281: Extremely Disgusting

He did not want the Young Master to contract the disease in the 11th Village. It did not matter if they contracted the disease, but their Young Master was different. They were willing to sacrifice themselves to protect her in the future.

Shen Yan’s thin lips curled up slightly.

There was more to their Young Master than they thought.

A young lady like her could have a deputy general accompany her to pick herbs. If she was not closely related to the military camp, there was only one other possibility.

“If I’m not mistaken, Young Master should be a pharmacist too, and she’s particularly knowledgeable about this epidemic,” he said.

“Really?” Er Ning and Ai Qi raised their eyebrows. “Big Brother, how did you guess that?”

Is Young Master a pharmacist? A pharmacist is much more capable than ordinary physicians. But we haven’t seen her! How did Shen Yan guess that? It doesn’t make sense!

Shen Yan replied, “The Bipetalous Scarlet-Blue Flower and Moon Whisper Grass.”

Shen Zhuxin had told them that these medicinal herbs could help slow down the effects of the epidemic disease. However, judging from the current situation, no one in the pharmacies had thought of using these two herbs.

Qian Jiyun’s military camp must have had the prescription for treating the disease, but he was still looking for these two herbs.

There was only one possibility: Qian Jiyun did not use that prescription. He either changed it or did not use it after discovering something wrong with it.

“You’re saying Prince Zhan Yun’s military camp is using a prescription that differs from the rest?” Ai Qi asked.

“Yes.” Shen Yan nodded.

That was precisely what he meant. Prince Lei Ting wanted to stop Qian Jiyun from giving them the prescription that could have put them in a chokehold, but he did not expect that Qian Jiyun had never settled for that prescription.

“But what does this have to do with the Young Master?” Er Ning asked, confused.

Ai Qi rolled his eyes at him.

“You still don’t understand? Young Master brought people to look for the two herbs. That means she was likely the one who gave the prescription to Prince Zhan Yun!”

“You’re right!” Er Ning’s eyes lit up. “That means Young Master will definitely come looking for us.”

He, too, understood this after Shen Yan’s reminder. As expected of the Young Master—she was so impressive!

“Young Master will come to us, but…” Shen Yan closed his eyes. When he opened them again, there was a piercing look in them.

“But?” Er Ning and Ai Qi asked in unison.

Isn’t Big Brother happy to see Young Master? Why does he have such an expression?

“Prince Lei Ting!” Shen Yan uttered that name in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Er Ning and Ai Qi’s expressions turned sour.

Prince Lei Ting was a troublemaker and extremely disgusting. Yet, they could not shake him off no matter what. They could not kill him either.

“Then let’s get rid of all his spies!” Er Ning said, after pondering for a long time.

Now that their Young Master had returned, the 18 Stockaded Villages were no longer without a leader. If Prince Lei Ting could not do anything to them in the past, he would have even less opportunity to do anything in the future!

Shen Yan chuckled. He wanted to do the same.

Prince Lei Ting had been causing trouble time and time again. They could not simply sit back and do nothing.

They had to make all the people secretly spying on them disappear. Otherwise, people might mistake the 18 Stockaded Villages for pushovers.
