In the morning, Yan An had a beautiful dream about becoming a rich woman, but in the dream, Yue Xiyuan tried to steal Yan An's treasure, so Yan An bit Yue Xiyuan. Unexpectedly, although it was a dream, the feeling of biting someone just now was quite real. Yan An slowly opened her sleepy eyes.
"Waaaaah... Miss, how cruel you are..." The one who was bitten was Bai Lan, who was about to wake Yan An up.
Yan An looked at her little hand that she had almost bitten and felt very guilty. She cursed Yue Xiyuan seven or eight times in her heart. If he hadn't tried to take her treasure, how could she have bitten Bai Lan?
"Poor little Bailan, I'm sorry, let me blow on it for you..." Yan An pretended to blow on Bailan.
"Ah? No need, Miss, no need, it doesn't hurt anymore." Bai Lan's face suddenly turned red.
"Little Bailan, you're so innocent! Here, take this. Apply it and you'll be fine in a bit." Yan An took out a small bottle of ointment from under the pillow and handed it to Bailan. This little one is really easy to tease.
"Thank you, Miss. By the way, Miss, you said yesterday that you were going out at noon. This morning, I saw that you were not awake yet, so I didn't wake you. I went to inform Madam and didn't wait for you to have breakfast."
"Okay, go to the small kitchen and prepare some simple food for me. In a little while, ask Bai Su to come out with me."
"Yes, Miss."
After washing up and having a breakfast that wasn't really breakfast (since it was almost noon), Yan An disguised herself as Luo Zhi and also gave Bai Su a simple disguise. The two of them then went out.
"Master, where are we going?" Bai Su asked Yan An in confusion.
"Linglong Pavilion, the largest auction house in the capital."
"Your Majesty, you're not going to sell the Empress Dowager and the Emperor's gifts, are you? These can't be sold; it'll get you beheaded."
Bai Su spoke softer and softer, afraid that someone with ulterior motives might overhear her.
"Is your master really that stupid?" Yan An looked at Bai Su in disbelief. Did she really look like someone who was a bit dim-witted?
"Hehe... How could that be? My master is the smartest person in the world."
"When did you learn to be as eloquent as Bai Lan?"
The two arrived at the entrance of Linglong Pavilion and saw a servant standing there. "I would like to see your manager. I have something I would like to borrow from Linglong Pavilion for auction."
Seeing that the woman speaking had an extraordinary air about her, the servant assumed there must be something good up for auction, so he led them to the second floor and called the shopkeeper.
"Miss, I am the manager of Linglong Pavilion. My surname is Wang. Do you have any treasures you wish to auction?"
Yan An took out a bottle of pills from his sleeve. Inside were the antidote pills he had given to Yue Xiyuan before. On his way back to the capital, Yan An bought some medicinal herbs and made two more pills.
Yan An was unaware that Yue Xiyuan had given Su Jingzhan an antidote pill to study. Nearly half a month had passed, and Su Jingzhan had no clue whatsoever, having also wasted an antidote pill.
"This is an antidote that can cure all poisons; it can neutralize all common poisons." Manager Wang took the medicine bottle, somewhat incredulous.
He had seen many rare treasures in this exquisite pavilion, and countless antidote pills, but he had never seen a pill that could cure all poisons. He couldn't help but feel a mix of surprise and doubt.
"You can take one and try it on someone who has been poisoned. If it works, you can put the other one up for auction. I believe it should be easy to find someone who is seriously poisoned in such a large place as Linglong Pavilion."
Yan An didn't care whether someone was already poisoned or was poisoned now, since her antidote pills could cure it.
"Please allow me to test it out, Miss, please wait a moment." Manager Wang took a pill and went out.
A quarter of an hour later, Manager Wang returned, followed by a man. "Miss, this is the Third Master of our Linglong Pavilion. The elixir has been tested and it is indeed effective." Manager Wang could not hide his excitement.
Before Manager Wang went to test the medicine, he reported the matter to the Third Pavilion Master. The Third Pavilion Master and Manager Wang went to the death row to test the medicine. During the test, the Third Pavilion Master felt that the medicine was very familiar. When he returned, he reported it to his master. That's right, the Third Pavilion Master is An San, and the master of this Linglong Pavilion is Yue Xiyuan.
Behind Linglong Pavilion is Ange, which is usually managed by An San. Today, Yue Xiyuan came to inspect it and happened to run into Yan An who came to auction.
Yue Xiyuan handed a black iron token to An San, saying, "I'll give this token to Doctor Luo later." He couldn't help but smile.
The master smiled again. Lately, the master has been smiling more and more often. It seems that the master has fallen for that divine physician Luo Zhi.
"Yes." After An San and Manager Wang left, Yue Xiyuan touched the purple jade pendant at his waist, smiled, and his eyes softened.
"Since it's effective, could the Linglong Pavilion auction off the remaining antidote pill?"
"Of course, may I ask if you are the divine physician Luo Zhi?" An San asked knowingly.
Yan An looked at An San with some suspicion. "Miss, please don't worry. Some time ago, Doctor Luo saved the Lady of Qingcheng and the daughter of the Right Prime Minister. Now that he can produce an antidote that can cure all poisons, I guess it must be Doctor Luo." An San explained, afraid that Doctor Luo would guess that it was the Prince.
"I am Luo Zhi." Yan An pondered An San's reply, her eyes remaining calm.
