Chapter 6 Not only are they blind, but their hearts are too!

Yun Si looked around intently.

Apart from the rustling of leaves in the breeze, there was nothing else.

Perhaps she was too nervous.

Yun Si exhaled gently, trying to calm herself down quickly.

She pushed open the door and looked into the room.

Although the Hou family mansion was ransacked and all the valuables were confiscated, the most basic furnishings in the rooms were still intact.

Yun Si stepped into the room. As her vision adjusted to the darkness, she could see at a glance that there were only a few places where she could hide things.

After searching through everything, she finally found a worn-out little box under the bed.

The box was so worn out that even if it were placed in the most conspicuous spot in the room, no one would give it a second glance.

But Yun Si knew very well that this small, tattered box did not belong in her room.

She opened the box and found a book inside.

Women's precepts?

She frowned.

wrong.

Yun Si ran her fingers over the dusty books and, sure enough, felt an unusual thickness beneath the covers.

She gently pulled it out, and found it was an old notebook disguised as a women's ring.

The note felt heavy in my hand, and the edges of the parchment were already yellowed and curled.

The room was dark, so it was impossible to see what was written in the book, but it seemed that there were many other things hidden inside.

Suppressing her excitement, Yun Si hid the note in her bosom and brought it back to Prince Xiao's residence before dawn.

Back in her room, she couldn't wait to open the thick notebook.

The first part was all about medical techniques. She was exhausted, but her mind was unusually excited.

She reads very quickly, able to skim through any book, and once she's finished reading, she remembers it vividly.

This condition is known as photographic memory.

If what she is looking at is too complex or too difficult to understand, she can write it down first and then slowly interpret and analyze it later.

For some reason, the more she read the contents of this notebook, the more strangely familiar it felt.

It seems that it's really possible to... learn it without a teacher.

Yun Si forgot to eat and sleep, and read through the entire medical section of the notebook in one go. Although she memorized it all, there were some strange characters and mysterious symbols, and even some medicine names, that she couldn't understand.

No rush, we can study it in detail later.

Yun Si rubbed her sore eyes, and a plan to recuperate suddenly came to mind in her drowsy head.

Because she was born prematurely, she was in poor health from a young age and relied on various expensive medicinal herbs to stay alive. All the doctors said that her body could not be completely cured.

After reading this notebook, she realized that her body could actually be healed slowly, but it would require some special medicinal materials and more effort.

If she hadn't been so foolish in her past life, blindly believing Shen Qian's words and driving her master away, she would have recovered her health long ago...

"Lansing".

Yun Si put down the notebook and wrote down a list.

She opened the door and instructed Lansing, "Go to the storeroom and get some silver. Buy all the medicinal herbs on this order for me."

Lanxin took the list and glanced at it, a look of doubt on her face, but she didn't ask any further questions: "This servant will go right away."

Yun Si's dowry was not taken with her after the divorce; it had been kept in the storeroom of Qiwu Garden. Now that she has returned, no one is stopping her from touching the things inside.

Looking back, in the year or so since she married into the Xiao Prince's mansion, Qin Ye had truly given her enough freedom and respect.

Why couldn't she see such a good man in her past life? Instead, she blindly trusted that hypocritical bastard Shen Qian.

Not only are their eyes blind, but their hearts are blind too.

After Lanxin left, Yunsi instructed Lu Yu to clean up the empty room next to hers and use it as a pharmacy in the future.

Lu Yu thought he had misheard.

My lady... wants to open her own pharmacy?

This is just a series of unpredictable actions.

Lu Yu didn't quite understand, but like Lan Xin, she obeyed.

Do whatever your master tells you to do.

After giving instructions to the two, Yun Si quickly washed up, ate something, and then went to catch up on her sleep.

She was probably too tired, because she slept straight through until dark.

After getting up, Lanxin had already bought the medicinal herbs on her list and placed them in the empty room that Lu Yu had tidied up.

The room is very large, and Yun Si plans to decorate it properly and buy all the medicines and tools mentioned in the notes.

Just reading isn't enough; even if you understand it thoroughly, it's just empty talk.

In addition to recuperating, she also needs to prepare some self-defense medicine and weapons.

I must never be like I was in my previous life, where I was helpless in the face of danger and had no way to save myself, leaving me at the mercy of others.

Last night, if it weren't for the fact that she was more familiar with the Marquis's mansion than Shen Qian, and that her father's study had hidden mechanisms and secret rooms, she wouldn't have been able to kill the guard next to Shen Qian.

Of course, it was also because that guard was too arrogant and didn't take her, a weak woman, seriously.

Next time, if she encounters an even more dangerous person, or faces Shen Qian directly, she must have the ability to protect herself, or even to fight back.

After finishing her dinner, Yun Si realized that she hadn't gone to see Qin Ye all day.

This man is very aloof towards her now and will never take the initiative to come and see her even once.

She left the manor in the middle of the night last night. Although she managed to evade the patrolling guards, she knew that there were many hidden guards in the Xiao Prince's manor, and she didn't know if she had been discovered by them.

Qin Ye hasn't reacted at all, so he probably hasn't noticed.

After all, she knew exactly where those hidden guards were hiding when she was a "ghost" in her previous life, and she deliberately avoided those places when she went out last night.

Yun Si didn't intend to hide anything from Qin Ye, but there were some things that even if she were willing to tell him now, he probably wouldn't believe her easily.

Rather than doing that, it would be more convincing to wait for him to discover it on his own.

Yun Si went to the main courtyard, where Granny Qian coldly told her, "His Highness is not in the manor."

She asked Granny Qian, "Does Granny Qian know where he went?"

"Your Highness is not joking. Your Highness is the master, and I am but a servant. How dare I inquire about your whereabouts?"

"Okay, I understand."

Yun Si nodded slightly, then turned and left.

There was no anger, nor any rebuke.

Upon seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Granny Qian's eyes.

In the past, she would have lost her temper long ago, but after the divorce, she has indeed changed a lot.

But so what? He was just forced to bow his head when he had nowhere else to turn. His temperament and character are not even half as good as Miss Lin's.

Why.

I really don't know what Your Highness is thinking. How could Your Highness not like a gentle and kind woman like Miss Lin, who is devoted to you?

Yun Si returned to Qiwu Garden, entered the pharmacy, and sorted the medicinal herbs by category. Following the notes in her handbook, she first tried to prepare some simple wound medicines.

The notebook contained detailed mixing ratios, and she successfully prepared two bottles of wound medicine after only one attempt.

However, the effectiveness remains to be seen.

Yun Si was busy tinkering in the pharmacy, while Lan Xin and Lu Yu stood guard at the door. They watched her skillfully handling the medicinal herbs, both of them filled with amazement.

Is she serious, Master?

When did she learn medicine?

The two looked at each other, then shook their heads at each other.

...

The next day.

Yun Si got up early, dressed neatly, ate breakfast, and then plunged into the pharmacy next door.

Lu Yu and Lan Xin were filled with doubts as they observed Yun Si, feeling that she had changed a lot since returning from the Shen family's villa.

But what's the use of buying so many common medicinal herbs?

The master has been in poor health since childhood and has needed to take various herbal decoctions all year round, but they all use expensive medicinal materials.

As her personal maids, Lu Yu and Lan Xin had read many medical books and knew some basic pharmacology in order to take better care of her.

These medicinal herbs are of no use to the master.

"A while ago, I met a miracle doctor and was fortunate enough to receive her guidance. She also gave me a medical book and taught me how to regulate my body. Don't underestimate these ordinary medicinal materials. As long as they are properly combined, they can be used to make miraculous medicines with different effects."

Yun Si noticed their confusion and knew that some things needed an explanation, otherwise it wouldn't make sense.

Even if this reason isn't very convincing.

As Yun Si spoke, she poured the ground medicine powder into the earthenware jar, skillfully adding water and stirring. The fragrant aroma of the medicine quickly filled the entire room.

Lu Yu and Lan Xin watched in amazement.

The two women exchanged a glance. Although they still had doubts, since their master had said so, they, as servants, would just listen. Besides, this was a good thing, and they were overjoyed.

Lansing stepped forward and said softly, "Master, what else needs to be done? Let us do it. Don't overwork yourself."

"good."

Yun Si raised her eyes and gave her instructions in an orderly manner.

"Go and prepare some clean gauze and porcelain bottles for me. Boil them in boiling water and let them dry. I also need some other medicinal herbs. I'll have to make several trips to different pharmacies to buy them. When you buy them, please disguise yourselves so that no one recognizes you."

"yes."

The two men acknowledged and withdrew.

Yun Si picked up the medicine grinder again and continued grinding the medicine powder. Then she sifted the powder carefully and placed it in different earthenware jars.

My hands were busy, and my mind was working too.

At this point in his previous life, Qin Ye was severely injured while trying to seize her corpse. Now, she has changed the course of her previous life, and Qin Ye should not have to go through this ordeal again...

As dusk fell.

Yun Si was busy in the pharmacy all day. Her desk was filled with boxes of precisely weighed medicines, and she was also preparing a medicinal bath recipe with mugwort and dried ginger.

At the same time, she also devised a diet plan to nourish her spleen and stomach, and combined it with her self-created guiding techniques. From medicine and diet to physical conditioning, everything was linked together. In time, she was able to eradicate the chronic illness that had plagued her for many years.

She was so eager to recover that the day's work left her feeling exhausted.

After a simple dinner, she took a medicinal bath during the night, which made her feel a little better.

That night, perhaps because of the medication, she slept very soundly. In her hazy state, she heard someone knocking on her door.

"Master, wake up! Something's happened!"
