Chapter 32 Antidote

Lu Weiqing carried Jiang Ran onto the carriage, and before leaving, he did not forget to wrap her tightly from head to toe in a cloak.

Eleven received the order and rode a fast horse to invite Shen Que into the mansion.

Fortunately, Shen Que just returned to Chang'an yesterday. If he was not there, finding other doctors would inevitably cause trouble.

Jiang Ran was still restless after getting into the carriage. Lu Weiqing had to drive the carriage and take care of her at the same time, so he was taken advantage of by her when he was not paying attention.

When they returned home, Shen Que was already waiting in the room.

Lu Weiqing's belt was crooked, his clothes were disheveled, his neck and cheeks were covered with suspicious red marks, and there was a cut on his lip.

Shen Que laughed so hard that he fell backwards. "This girl is also a wonderful person. She can make our Prime Minister Lu suffer such a big loss. Hahahahaha..."

Lu Weiqing carefully placed her on the bed, his face dark, and he kicked Chen Que on the butt, "Stop nagging, come and heal her."

Shen Que stopped smiling and stepped forward to take the patient's pulse. After a moment of hesitation, he suddenly became serious.

"What's wrong? Is it serious?" Lu Weiqing had completely lost his usual calmness and kept asking like a fool.

"Strange, this thing is very rare, how come I encountered it again? She is lucky to have met this miracle doctor."

Shen Que dug out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box and handed it to him, "Feed her one."

"Ke Ling Xi Wan?"

Lu Weiqing noticed the label on the bottle. Shen Que always liked to deal in poisons and antidotes. Usually, the ones named after someone were the antidotes to a certain poison.

He poured a pill into his palm and swallowed it in one gulp.

Shen Que was too late to stop him, and he was heartbroken. He complained, "Hey, hey, hey, this antidote is very expensive. You're fine, why are you eating it? It's a waste."

He had been carefree since childhood and could not stand Lu Weiqing's mature and steady appearance, so he always looked for opportunities to poison him and then researched the solution.

Lu Weiqing had been teased by him for so many years that he was almost immune to all poisons.

Lu Weiqing ignored him. After half a minute, he didn't feel anything unusual, so he quickly fed Jiang Ran a pill.

Seeing that she swallowed the medicine and fell asleep, and could not be woken up even if he shouted, Lu Weiqing picked up Shen Que and was about to kill him.

Seeing his anxious and angry look, Shen Que really couldn't bear to watch, "Alright, alright, stop shouting, he fell asleep because he was tired."

"This little thing is as easy as pie for this genius doctor."

Lu Weiqing felt relieved for a moment, staring at the porcelain bottle in his hand, and regretted, "It turned out to be poison. I thought it was just an ordinary drug. I was careless."

Shen Que pretended to be thoughtful and said, "Stretch out your hand and let this genius doctor take your pulse as well."

Lu Weiqing knew his character well and knew that Shen Que hadn't held back his fart well, but since it involved Jiang Ran, he really didn't dare to be careless and still handed his hand to him.

Shen Que pretended to take the pulse for a while, and at the same time planned his escape route. When he thought about what he was going to say, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

"Um--"

"You can endure this with a beautiful woman in your arms. Lu Weiqing, you must have a hidden illness!"

Shen Que ran and shouted, and slipped out of the room like a slippery fish.

Lu Weiqing didn't want to argue with him. He poured some warm water into a copper basin, washed Jiang Ran's face, and carefully helped her tidy up her clothes.

After watching over her for a while and seeing that she was sleeping soundly, Lu Weiqing also fell asleep with his clothes on and his head resting on the edge of the bed.

Jiang Ran slept for several hours and it was dark when he woke up.

When she opened her eyes, she saw sky-blue curtains and a plain quilt. It was obviously not her room.

Jiang Ran felt a splitting headache and couldn't remember anything.

She turned her head and was shocked to see Lu Weiqing's handsome face that was so infuriating that it made both humans and gods angry.

Yes! She and Lu Weiqing went to catch the adulterer.

Jiang Ran rubbed her temples, and she remembered everything. Not only had they been eavesdropping, they had also sneaked in to watch. And then! She had been so bold as to molest Lu Weiqing.

Oh my God, I am too embarrassed to face anyone.

It took her a while to accept this fact. Her only plan now was to pretend she had lost her memory. She would never admit it, even if beaten to death.

Jiang Ran gently lifted the quilt and, like a caterpillar, moved around Lu Weiqing and moved out.

She hadn't even reached home yet, and her second brother must be getting anxious, so she had to run quickly.

Just when they were about to succeed, Lu Weiqing suddenly woke up, and she looked into his eyes in a strange posture.

Jiang Ran was so embarrassed that his scalp was numb and he quickly sat up.

"Hahaha, what a coincidence, Brother Lu, you are here too." She made up her mind to play dumb to the end.

"This is my bed, my bedroom."

Two exclamation marks floated through her mind.

Jiang Ran subconsciously lowered her head. Fortunately, her clothes were still intact.

When I looked up, I saw the mockery in Lu Weiqing's eyes.

She pounded the bed in embarrassment. It was his fault for saying such misleading words.

"I'm leaving. My brother must be looking for me."

Jiang Ran suddenly threw the quilt over his head and was about to run away. It was hard to say that he didn't have any intention of revenge.

But she was stopped by Shen Que when she was halfway through.

Shen Que was holding a bowl of pitch-black medicinal juice, and he knew from the smell that it must be bitter.

Jiang Ran frowned. "What medicine? Why do I need to take medicine? I don't want to drink it."

"Miss Jiang suffers from blood deficiency and qi stagnation, so she feels uncomfortable during those few days of the month, right?"

"Stop talking, stop talking. I'll drink."

When Jiang Ran heard a grown man talking about such private matters in front of her, she hurriedly grabbed the medicine bowl and poured it into her mouth, smacking her lips in pain.

Lu Weiqing fed her a plum, and Jiang Ran finally came to her senses.

"You drink medicine no matter who gives it to you, without even asking who he is?" Lu Weiqing knocked her head helplessly.

Jiang Ran rubbed his head and complained: "Didn't you stop me? If I poison someone, you will be held responsible."

Shen Que raised his head and laughed, saying repeatedly: "Interesting, interesting, I am Shen Que, this is Brother Lu's..."

"You are Chen Que. I've heard of your name for a long time." Jiang Ran's eyes suddenly lit up.

Shen Que was Lu Weiqing's only friend, and today he finally got to meet her. Although his personality seemed completely opposite to Lu Weiqing's, the two of them seemed to be inexplicably harmonious when standing together.

"Oh? This taciturn fellow has told you about me."

Shen Que had a meaningful expression on his face. He looked at Lu Weiqing and then at Jiang Ran.

"Okay, I'll take you back."

Lu Weiqing took out the porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Jiang Ran.

Although Chen Que felt very distressed, he still generously gave her a whole bottle and told her to remember to take one pill a day for three consecutive days.

"This is the Kelingxi Pill. It's very precious and can cure all kinds of poisons. Miss Jiang, you must keep it well."

Jiang Ran picked it up and examined it carefully for a while.

"Kelingxi Pills? They're so powerful, can they cure mosquito bites?"

Jiang Ran turned to look at Lu Weiqing, tapped the side of his lips and told him: "Brother Lu, you got bit by a mosquito here. There are still mosquitoes in the middle of winter, and it's all swollen."

Lu Weiqing gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it was a mosquito bite, a poisonous mosquito."

Eleven came to report only after seeing Jiang Ran enter the room.

"Master, earlier, Madam Lu wanted to come to the Jiang family to cause trouble, but she was turned away. Lu Yu is still imprisoned in Jingzhao Prefecture."

"Have you confessed?"

"I admit it."

"Since you've admitted it, why are you asking me?"

"I'm sorry for talking too much." The coldness in Lu Weiqing's words made Eleven alert instantly.

According to the law, the crime of robbery requires amputation of the left toes or tattooing on the face. After all, he is Lord Lu's nephew, and the Jinwu Guards dare not deal with him on their own.

Now the master means that there is no need to worry about him.

It seems that Lu Yu really went too far this time.

Eleven secretly decided that he must be extremely attentive in future tasks related to Miss Jiang.
