Chapter 146: Earth Blood Ginseng
Considering what my mother wrote in the letter, Liang Shanyu took something out from Lin Mo Niang in the morning, as if it were a treasure. It seems that the blood ginseng was taken from Lin Mo Niang.
Liang Weiyuan felt that there was still something she couldn't figure out.
Her fingertips tapped lightly on the table.
The things that Lin Mo Niang secretly hid were probably not that simple. She and her mother had the same idea about the purpose of the mother and daughter. It was definitely not simple but vicious.
She had some vague guesses in her mind, but they still needed confirmation.
The warm room was filled with the aroma of medicine, mixed with the refreshing scent of calming incense.
Huo Jin should have closed his eyes to rest, but his gaze kept unconsciously drifting towards the figure opposite him.
Liang Weiyuan lowered her delicate eyebrows, but her mind was not entirely on the account book in her hand.
His fingertips twisted the paper, making a slight rustling sound.
The sunlight cast a soft halo on the side of her face.
She was in a daze.
She was unaware that his eyes were on her, her expression was calm, and the sunlight outside the window was just right.
Huo Jin felt his heart soften when he saw this. He wished it could always be like this.
He hopes that the disturbances in the outside world will not disturb her, and he is willing to wait for her.
Huo Jin's gaze lingered on her drooping eyelashes for a moment, then slowly swept across her straight and slender nose, and finally landed on her slightly pursed lips.
Finally, when she looked up at him, he looked away calmly.
The fingertips under the sleeves covering the thighs twisted slightly.
But his body has not recovered yet, and he is not a strong man. I wonder if she will dislike him...
Liang Weiyuan didn't think for too long, as Zhushu got the exact information about the origin of Lin Mo Niang's half of "precious" blood ginseng.
"Miss, Mr. Ye is here."
Ye Zhonglin pushed the door open and walked in.
He was wearing a moon-white cotton gown and had a graceful figure.
He walked in and nodded slightly to Liang Weiyuan: "Young Madam."
His eyes swept over Huo Jinjian who was lying on the couch, and he bent down slightly, "General Huo."
Liang Weiyuan leaned back in the armchair, her eyes fixed calmly on Ye Zhonglin.
She spoke with a hint of interest in her voice, "Divine Doctor Ye, I heard that my good sister went to your place yesterday and caused a scene?"
Ye Zhonglin was picking up a candied fruit from the fruit plate. Hearing this, he paused slightly and then put the plum into his mouth as if nothing had happened.
"It's more than just a commotion."
He swallowed the plum, his tone tinged with the mockery of someone who had experienced the world, "She acted as if I, Ye, owed her a huge debt and she was going to tear down my sign if she didn't give her the elixir right away."
The corners of Liang Weiyuan's lips curled up slightly, with an understanding that seemed to know everything.
"That's her style."
"But then, did you reward her with some magical elixir?"
Ye Zhonglin picked up the teacup beside him, took a slow sip, and then said, "It's nothing rare. Just tell her that if she wants to preserve the pregnancy, she needs a 'hundred-year-old blood ginseng' as a guide."
He put down the teacup, a hint of sarcasm flashing across his eyes. "You didn't see it, when she heard the word 'hundred years', her eyes widened...tsk."
"Hundred-year-old blood ginseng? The one that Aunt Lin secretly kept is dark red in color and has dark veins. I'm afraid it's..."
Liang Weiyuan hadn't finished speaking, but he was hinting at something.
Ye Zhonglin naturally responded, "Ground Blood Ginseng. It grows in filthy places and absorbs foul air. It may appear nourishing, but it's actually a death talisman."
He raised his eyes and looked at Liang Weiyuan. The teasing in his eyes disappeared, and he said calmly: "But she was so anxious at the time that she felt like she had found a treasure just by hearing the word 'blood ginseng'. How could she give me the time to carefully identify the medicinal properties?"
Huo Jin, who had been listening silently, saw that his gaze shifted from Liang Weiyuan to Ye Zhonglin and interrupted in a deep voice.
"Did she really present this item to the Crown Prince's Mansion?"
