Yun Hui left with Yi Huan and An An. Chi Yi put away the dried fruit that Yi Huan had given him; everything Yi Huan gave him was always the most delicious.
After watching them walk away, Nangong Chiyu entered the Du residence.
In the hall, Su Luo and Du Siyuan sat on either side of a table, with many pills on the table in the middle.
He was far away and could only hear them talking about some anti-inflammatory medicine. The two were so engrossed in their discussion that they didn't notice him standing in the yard.
“Grandmaster, I’ve tried this anti-inflammatory medicine. It’s especially effective at suppressing inflammation after an injury. It’s absolutely a miracle drug!”
They've made this anti-inflammatory medicine into granules, which makes it very effective. Combined with sutures, it's absolutely the perfect treatment.
"Everyone has some inflammation to some extent. I'll write down which inflammations it can treat for you in a bit."
Remember to make it clear to the doctors who come to our Ji'antang Pharmaceutical Factory to purchase medicines: if they dare to violate pharmacology and prescribe medicine indiscriminately to patients, they will be permanently blacklisted by Ji'antang.
"That's natural!"
Du Siyuan gently picked up a pill with his fingers to examine it. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became. His master was indeed his master; the effects of every medicine he made were beyond his expectations.
Although traditional Chinese medicine can achieve the same effect, decocting it is a troublesome process.
"Grandmaster, do you think that if we develop all the medicines that can cure human diseases, the herbs will be forgotten?"
Su Luo, who was writing pharmacological instructions with her head down, replied: "There are countless diseases in the human body, and what we know is only a small part of them."
Moreover, herbal medicine can never be replaced. It has been passed down from our ancestors to the present day, and there are many cases that require it to be cured.
What we are doing now is simply improving upon its foundation to achieve a faster treatment effect.
Siyuan sighed, noting that his grandmaster was about the same age as him, yet knew far more than him.
When his father first became his master's disciple, he was even asked to address Su Luo as his master, which he was extremely unwilling to do.
But in later letters, when he heard his father say that he had learned this peerless medical skill from Su Luo, and then he learned that peerless medical skill, his feelings towards Su Luo gradually changed.
It wasn't until Su Luo produced herbal oil and fritillaria cirrhosa syrup that he came into contact with them and truly understood his father's admiration for Su Luo.
It's not shameful for him to call himself his grandmaster.
As soon as he turned his head, Du Siyuan saw Nangong Chiyu standing outside the courtyard, not allowing the servant to come in and announce his arrival. Startled, he quickly got up, walked to the door, and clasped his hands in greeting.
"This humble subject has met with Prince Yu. I was unaware of your arrival and apologize for my rudeness."
Su Luo turned around and saw Nangong Chiyu. She stood up, walked up to him, and gave him a respectful bow.
"Is Prince Yu well?"
Nangong Chiyu reached out and helped Su Luo up. He looked at Su Luo with an ambiguous and complicated expression.
"You don't need to bow to me anymore. Also, I'd like to say thank you."
Thank you, Su Luo, for giving him two children. Thank you, Su Luo, for accompanying his mother all these years. And thank you, Su Luo, for doing what he was supposed to do, so that his family can live a good life.
"Your Highness, please don't be so polite. It is His Majesty's order to give you acupuncture, and there is no guarantee that it will be effective."
Su Luo assumed he had come to thank her for treating him. Her medical skills had saved many people, and he had thanked her countless times; she was used to it.
Nangong Chiyu smiled and looked down. Su Luo really didn't know anything. She didn't even recognize him when he stood in front of her.
"I came here to give this to you."
Nangong Chiyu took the crossbow bolt from Chi Yi's hand and handed it to Su Luo.
"This is the design you created, which I made myself. Keep it with you for self-defense."
Seeing that Nangong Chiyu and Su Luo were still standing in the courtyard, Du Siyuan quickly invited them into the house.
"Prince Yu, Grandmaster, it's windy outside. Please come in and sit down. I'll go and pour you some tea."
Su Luo took the crossbow bolt and gestured for Nangong Chiyu to proceed.
The details of this crossbow are very well done. Nangong Chiyu even made the hand-grip snaps a little smaller so that they would be easier for her to hold.
Looking at Su Luo holding the crossbow and testing its feel, he was in no way inferior to a man, showing courage, decisiveness, and exceptional talent.
"Your Highness has made the crossbow so quickly. Not bad, it's exactly what I wanted."
Du Siyuan poured tea for the two of them. Yu Wang had come to see his grandmaster, so he tactfully stepped outside and stood with Chi Yi.
"This crossbow bolt is similar in function to your hidden dart. I wonder who you learned these weapons from?"
Su Luo placed the crossbow bolts on the table and sat facing him.
"Talent! No need to learn it."
He was dangerous, and Su Luo didn't want to reveal too much to him.
"This crossbow is very good, but I don't need it. You can give it to Commander Sun; he'll like it very much."
Su Luo has many weapons in her spatial storage; this crossbow was just a sudden idea of hers, thinking it would be useful for mounted archery.
"This is something I made for you; you'll find it useful."
Did he really make it? Besides carving, he can also do this.
"Alright, I'll accept it then, but I won't take your things for nothing. Let me take your pulse."
Su Luo placed his wrist on the table. He had internal injuries before, and she didn't know if they would recur.
His hands were large, and he was stiff when she pulled him up.
Su Luo carefully sensed his pulse. His internal injuries were almost gone, but why was his pulse beating so fast?
He was much faster than normal, and Su Luo thought it was because her medical skills were not good enough, so she moved the stool closer to him.
She used three fingers to examine all the pulse patterns on his wrist. She believed that someone like Nangong Chiyu wouldn't react like this due to nervousness.
Nangong Chiyu turned his face away. Suddenly, he thought of the scene when he met Su Luo at the hot spring. He had seen things he shouldn't have seen.
"Prince Yu, why is your heart beating so fast? Don't worry, you don't have any terminal illness."
Nangong Chiyu withdrew his hand, his eyes darting around. He knew, of course, that there was nothing wrong with his body.
"Hey, keep the crossbow safe. His Majesty has decreed that all officials must participate in the spring hunt in March."
The spring hunt seems to be a grand royal event, held every year with the participation of all officials.
"Is spring hunting almost entirely done on horseback with archery?"
Su Luo had never participated before and didn't understand these things.
"Yes! Women don't have to participate, but you are an official, and all officials must participate."
In that case, it would be as if she were the only female official on the hunting ground.
"I understand. I've hunted wild boars in Changping Village. It's just hunting; it's no problem for me."
Su Luo had also hunted wild boars. He knew there were wild boars in the deep mountains of Changping Village. He didn't remember many things, but he vaguely remembered Zhao Ruyun telling him not to go deep into the mountains to chop firewood.
The wild boars there have eaten many people; it's very dangerous. He didn't dare go there when he was a child, but Su Luo went anyway. Why?
Could it be for gathering herbs?
If he hadn't been injured, Su Luo and the others wouldn't have had to endure such a hard life.
"Su Luo... thank you..."
Su Luo felt that Nangong Chiyu was acting strangely today, as he kept thanking her.
