Although she has divorced Prince Cheng, since the two are now in the same boat and will work together in the future, Ning Xi'er will naturally consider his affairs.
After all, those who plotted against him, whether because of her medical skills now or because of her help in the future, would not let her go.
She will help settle accounts with those who plotted against him and schemed to harm him.
If she can help him reach that position as soon as possible, and the original owner's consciousness dissipates sooner, then she can be free and live her own life.
Xie Zhun tidied his clothes and was carried to another carriage.
This horse has an injured eye and walks unsteadily, which could be dangerous.
It turned out that the carriage had been untied and was being towed behind another carriage with a lighter load.
Even though Ning Xi'er has medicinal powder in her space that can stop the bleeding from the horse's eyes, it will no longer be able to carry people on its journey.
There were few people around the desolate road, so the injured horse could not be exchanged for supplies. Xuanfeng ordered his men to slaughter it on the spot to prepare lunch for everyone.
The commotion had disturbed everyone's sleep, but after it was dealt with, the exhausted people went back to sleep.
Following Ning Xi'er's instructions, Eunuch Xu arranged for servants to dig an earthen stove and carry water.
Ning Xi'er had checked the spring water beforehand and confirmed that it was non-toxic.
Set up a pot, boil the medicinal herbs prepared by Ning Xier using spring water from Fanshan Mountain, and pour the medicinal soup into the bath tub...
Once two-thirds of the container was filled, Eunuch Xu ordered his men to carry Xie Zhun inside.
While Xie Zhun was soaking the medicine, his servants continued to boil it, adding hot broth as needed to prevent it from getting cold.
Ning Xi'er took out two water pouches filled with spiritual spring liquid and told Xuan Shuang to let Xie Zhun drink a few sips whenever he wanted to avoid dehydration.
After brewing a few cups of tea, the pain in Xie Zhun's legs, where he had received acupuncture, gradually subsided.
Fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Xie Zhun's forehead, and his pale face gradually turned rosy.
As the servants prepared the medicine, Eunuch Xu worried that they might add things they shouldn't.
He would come over every now and then to check on Xie Zhun's movements. Seeing the visible changes in Xie Zhun's complexion, he couldn't help but show a delighted expression.
"Oh, Your Highness! You are truly our benefactor. With you here, His Highness will surely be cured!"
"I'm so happy," said Eunuch Xu. "The Duke and Duchess of Huguo also came over to take a look. Their faces were filled with joy. When they saw Ning Xi'er's expression, they showed relief and gratitude."
Zheng Ye remained calm, after all, he had witnessed Ning Xi'er cure paralyzed patients, so it was to be expected that she could help Prince Cheng recover.
He looked wary, carefully observing everyone, whether they were resting or busy, hoping to find any signs of trouble beforehand.
Xie Zhun was accompanied by three other guards, while Xuan Feng personally oversaw the lunch prepared by the guards and servants.
After all, the journey has been fraught with danger. If villains can poison the water, they could also poison the food with their inside help.
"I need to use the restroom over there."
Ning Xi'er's voice wasn't loud, but several people around her could still hear it clearly.
Zheng Ye blushed slightly, his impression of Ning Xi'er had improved, but did she not know shame?
Is it necessary to explain to these men that I need to go to the toilet?
Why not just change the excuse and go directly?!
Before leaving, Ning Xi'er glanced at the angelica and licorice not far behind her.
He walked alone towards the bushes on the side.
After walking about two hundred meters, the person squatted down.
Xie Zhun, who was taking a medicinal bath, noticed her departure and waved to her side with his fingers.
Xuan Shuang left without leaving a trace.
Ning Xi'er's eyes were bright as she closely observed the movements of the stationed personnel through the grass.
Sure enough, several figures, seemingly busy, moved away from several directions when no one was looking.
Ning Xi'er took out some pastries and fruits from her spatial storage, drank from the spiritual spring water in her space, and leisurely waited for them to come and kill her.
Having been a military doctor in her previous life, Ning Xi'er's reactions were exceptionally quick.
Sensing the rustling of dry grass from three directions, she startled the empty space containing the unfinished pastries and fruit, ready to get to work!
Pretending to bend down and tidy her clothes, she actually took out highly poisonous powder from her spatial storage.
As the footsteps drew closer, until they were almost touching...
Ning Xi'er jumped up, quickly scattering the medicinal powder from her hands around...
Two men who looked like servants suddenly pressed their throats and eyes, howled in pain, and collapsed to the ground instantly!
Behind her and from another direction, two men who looked like guards glared fiercely and swung their long swords at Ning Xi'er!
Ning Xi'er took a slight step back, and Haitang and Gancao jumped out in time, trembling along with the two of them.
Judging from their skills, I never realized that there were such experts among the ordinary guards!
When sparring with experts trained by his elder brother, such as Angelica dahurica and Glycyrrhiza uralensis, he was not at all at a disadvantage!
Ning Xi'er curled her lips into a cold smile.
He took out the sleeping potion from his spatial storage and threw it at the four people who were locked in combat, like sand. He didn't forget to explain to Bai Zhi and Gan Cao, "Bai Zhi, Gan Cao, don't be afraid, I have an antidote!"
Upon hearing this, the two guards tried to move away, but the potent sedative they had been given took effect, and their bodies instantly went limp.
Angelica dahurica and licorice also struggled for a moment before losing consciousness.
Ning Xi'er clapped her hands, took out another bottle of antidote from her bosom, and sniffed it under the noses of Bai Zhi and Gan Cao. The two of them woke up peacefully.
Just as I looked up, I saw Xuan Shuang jump out from somewhere, her gaze seemingly fixed on the spot where she had just squatted down to eat cakes and fruits.
A few pieces of fruit peel remained on the ground.
Ning Xi'er acted self-righteously, pretending not to notice anything unusual.
As long as she doesn't show any weakness, the fruit peels on the ground weren't spat out by her!
