Jiang Qinyu snapped out of her reverie upon hearing this, and shaking her head as she thought about what had just happened, she said, "I haven't fully thought about the specifics yet."

"You already have a solution?" Doctor Mo's eyes lit up, and he looked intently at Jiang Qinyu.

Jiang Qinyu nodded, "I have some ideas, but I need to think about them some more."

She couldn't speak too definitively; she always had to think things through before taking the next step.

Doctor Mo breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm relieved to hear you say that."

He used to rely on himself for almost everything, but now that he works with Jiang Qinyu, he understands how much easier it is to have someone anticipate and solve all the problems for you.

At least for now, he only needs to focus his energy on the beauty potion, so that the vaccines used on people in the future will be more effective and safer, and he doesn't need to worry about any other trivial matters.

Seeing that he understood, Jiang Qinyu didn't say anything more and quickly changed the subject.

But gradually, she became distracted and started multitasking.

Last night she had a terrible dream. In the dream, Lu Yanzheng seemed to be standing right in front of her, but no matter how hard she ran, she couldn't reach him.

When she woke up, her eyes were wet and she felt very uncomfortable.

Could something have happened to him?

...

At the Border Town General's Mansion, Lu Yanzheng and several personal guards hurriedly returned to the army. He managed to handle the backlog of military affairs, but when he returned to the mansion, he could no longer hold on and collapsed at the entrance of the General's Mansion.

Chen Bo and the others were terrified and immediately wanted to send someone to Yongshan County to invite Doctor Mo.

"Old Chen, how about we hold off for a bit?" Old Li said to Uncle Chen. "The general probably didn't want his wife to worry, so he came back here first. Let's see a doctor first, and if it's nothing serious, we won't need to see Doctor Mo, right?"

Uncle Chen thought it made sense, so he quickly instructed Xiao Wu to invite the best doctor in the city.

He turned to Old Li and said, "I only agreed because the general's complexion isn't too bad right now. If the general's condition worsens later, even if the madam is worried, I will have someone go and invite Doctor Mo back."

"Do you even need to tell me?" Old Li rolled his eyes speechlessly. "It's not like you're the only one who cares about the general. I just didn't want the general to blame you later, did I?"

Chen Bo didn't bother to say anything more to him. He stayed by Lu Yanzheng's bedside, keeping a close eye on his condition.

This was alarming. Before the doctor even arrived, Uncle Chen jumped up and shouted, "Quickly send someone to Yongshan County to fetch Doctor Mo!"

Upon hearing this, Lao Li and the others gathered around the bed and took a look, their expressions immediately changing.

"What's wrong with the general?"

"It looks like they've been poisoned!"

"What were those guards doing? How come no one told us that the general had been poisoned?"

Chen Bo shouted angrily, "Enough! Stop shouting over there. The general's personal guards should have been sent out on business. Haven't you noticed that none of them have returned?"

At this moment, Lu Yanzheng's face was completely bloodless, but his lips had turned black!

"Old Zhao, you must ride a fast horse to Yongshan County now and bring back Doctor Mo..." Uncle Chen said to Old Zhao, but he was interrupted by a weak voice before he could finish speaking.

Lu Yanzheng, lying on the bed, opened his eyes at some point, turned his head to look at the person beside him, and murmured, "No...don't go to Yongshan County..."

"General!" Uncle Chen suddenly rushed to the bedside. "How are you? Why couldn't we go and ask Doctor Mo for help? Your life is more important than anything else!"

Lu Yanzheng slowly shook his head, then lowered his eyelids to look at his chest, and said haltingly, "I... have medicine on me..."

The night before he left, Jiang Qinyu gave him a very small box, only the size of a finger joint, containing a pill.

"Brother Zheng, be careful when you're out and about. This is something that could save your life. There's only one, so you must use it only when it's in the most dangerous situation."

Jiang Qinyu's instructions were still echoing in his mind when Uncle Chen had already found the small box.

The moment the box was opened, golden light illuminated the entire room, and a strange, refreshing fragrance wafted past everyone's noses, but only for a fleeting moment, making it impossible to tell if it was an illusion.

Uncle Chen blinked, not having time to think, and quickly stuffed the medicine into Lu Yanzheng's mouth.

The others looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.

Did they just see something amazing?

The change in Lu Yanzheng's face was visible to the naked eye after the pill entered his mouth.

First, my lips stopped turning black, and my complexion gradually became rosy.

"This..." Uncle Chen suddenly covered his mouth and glanced back at the others, "You didn't see anything, you know that?"

Old Li and the others were stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously, and each of them consciously walked out.

"Hey Lao Zhao, show off your skills again today? I want to eat your braised pork knuckle..."

"Get lost! Do you think you can eat braised pork hock? That's for the general!"

"Hehe, I don't eat meat, can't I just dip it in some sauce?"

"you……"

As the voices faded into the distance, when Uncle Chen turned around again, he saw Lu Yanzheng already sitting against the headboard.

"General, are you alright?" Uncle Chen almost burst into tears of joy.

Lu Yanzheng nodded, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Did I scare you?"

"No, no..." Chen Bo's voice choked with emotion, "As long as you're alright, General, I'll do anything..."

Lu Yanzheng smiled and said, "I know my own situation. Uncle Chen, you can go down now."

Uncle Chen wiped his eyes and left, relieved.

Lu Yanzheng held the box in his hand, his heart softening.

He wasn't lying. He knew his body's limits and trusted Jiang Qinyu enough to know that what she gave him could save his life. That's why he dared to boldly return to the border town.

Fortunately, he returned; otherwise, the news of the disturbances in the Western Qiang would have taken two days to reach him, and by then, it might have already caused irreparable damage.

After sensing the flow of internal energy within his body, Lu Yanzheng threw off the covers and got out of bed.

If someone knowledgeable were to see this, they would know that Lu Yanzheng was at his peak at this moment.

At the same time, a mechanical system voice sounded in Jiang Qinyu's mind.

[The high-value item (Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill) purchased by the host on December 17th of the 25th year of the Dayue Jingqing era has been used. Please be aware!]

Jiang Qinyu was stunned when she heard the news, and then her heart jumped.

That life-saving pill was specially bought by her for Lu Yanzheng to save his life. Now that it has been used, doesn't that mean Lu Yanzheng is in mortal danger?

Jiang Qinyu was writing instructions for setting up a mass production line and configuring personnel when she suddenly heard this news, and she couldn't sit still any longer.

"Aping!" Jiang Qinyu shouted.

Aping came to Jiang Qinyu almost immediately, "Madam."

"Do you know where the general is now?" Jiang Qinyu asked with a serious expression.
