Chapter 201: Lack of Talent and Learning



"Chang'an, although I understand that you feel embarrassed about being stared at by others, you can't scare me like this." Xu Zichu looked at Bei Mingxuan with an evil smile.

He looked very confident, as if he was watching a show and didn't mind being the main person in charge.

Changan blushed, "I didn't lie to you, Mother is really awake."

"It's time for a cup of tea. She didn't lie to you." Shen Shang looked at Concubine Tong lying on the couch seriously and muttered, "You are blind and you blame others?"

"..." Xu Zichu glared at Shen Shang, "She has given you so many benefits, yet you protect her everywhere. If you don't know, you might think she's his son."

Changan stared at Xu Zichu with eyes wide open, his tone full of regret, "You will suffer a fate worse than death!"

If Shen Shang hadn't taken action against Xu Zichu, Chang'an would have doubted his life.

At this time, Concubine Tong on the bed had slowly opened her eyes.

What came into view were his son, daughter-in-law, and nephew.

Concubine Tong suddenly sat up from the couch, her eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness.

"What? She killed you too. What a cruel heart."

Chang'an, "..."

Bei Mingxuan, “!!!”

"..." Xu Zichu, what's going on? It seems like they think we're all dead.

Thinking in his heart, he turned to look at the ghost doctor, "Tell me the truth, little brat, you didn't make my aunt stupid, did you?"

The ghost doctor glared at Xu Zichu angrily, "You ignorant child."

Chang'an lowered his voice as much as possible and looked at Concubine Tong, "Mother, you are not dead, and we are not dead."

Concubine Tong finally calmed down and asked, "What happened?"

Bei Mingxuan gave Concubine Tong the emperor's letter and said, "Perhaps this letter can answer all your questions."

"Hmph!" Concubine Tong sneered. "Freedom? A lifetime of anonymity? That's the favor he's given me. He might as well let me die in peace. Empress Jiade? Buried in the imperial mausoleum? To put it bluntly, it's just a show for everyone to see! He wants my family to be grateful to him and kowtow to him? Pah! I'll stab him and then say sorry to him, and see if he agrees?"

"!!!" Chang'an looked at Concubine Tong with admiration, "Mother, you are so majestic. Who did you learn the skill of arguing with others from?"

"Your mother." Concubine Tong.

"A frog in the well." Shen Shang.

The two of them spoke at the same time, both speaking to Chang'an.

"...Uh." Chang'an smiled awkwardly. When Concubine Tong mentioned her mother, Chang'an had already guessed that Canshang said that about her because he had seen her argue with others. "Hehehe, this princess is not very talented or well-educated. Not very talented or well-educated."

"Who are you?" Concubine Tong's gaze fell on Cang Shang.

"Ghost doctor." Bei Mingxuan spoke.

Xu Zichu frowned in confusion, thinking he should explain it more clearly, "Ghost Doctor... the little servant beside him."

Bei Mingxuan couldn't stand Xu Zichu's stupid look and corrected him, "The little brat you're talking about is the Ghost Doctor Shen Shang himself."

"..." Xu Zichu was stunned. "Ghost doctor? Shen Shang? No, no, no, cousin, please don't scare me. This young master's little heart can't help but be scared."

Xu Zichu thought of the Emperor's desperate look after being poisoned by the Ghost Doctor, and shuddered in his heart. He cautiously glanced at the little kid he was talking about, "Are you really the Ghost Doctor? Isn't the Ghost Doctor dead?"

Only then did he realize what Chang'an had just said, "You will live a life worse than death."

"Ghost Doctor Immortal." Xu Zichu said with a flattering look on his face, "You wouldn't really poison me, would you?"

"Yes." Shen Shang said directly, "Want to detoxify?"

"Did you really poison me?" Xu Zichu's eyes widened. "Why didn't I react?"

"Xu Zichu, known in the martial arts world as Silver Nine." Cang Shang looked at him. "He's a man who resists women. I heard that if a woman touches you, you'll be so disgusted that you'll vomit bile."

"...You, what do you mean?" Xu Zichu was completely upset from the inside out.

Shen Shang's words were simple and clear. "The poison I've given you cannot be cured by anyone but a woman. You will stay with her for three days and three nights."

"Fuck, so cruel." Xu Zichu's eyes were red as he grabbed Shen Shang's neck and said, "Believe it or not, I will crush you to death."

Shen Shang raised his eyebrows without saying anything.

At this moment, Xu Zichu discovered that the hand that was pinching Shen Shang's neck had begun to turn black, and the pain was so intense that it pierced his heart.

In this way, naturally, Shen and Shang will be released.

The moment Xu Zichu's hand left Shen Shang's body, the pain disappeared and the black color on his hand also disappeared completely.

Such a powerful thing, Xu Zichu's eyes were filled with awe, "How can you give me the antidote?"

"A letter." The ghost doctor looked directly at Bei Mingxuan, "The letter in your hand."

Bei Mingxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a long moment, a smile appeared on his lips. "You asked for it, and I'll give it to you. What are you thinking?"

"It seems like it's really coming from you," the Ghost Doctor said. "Although the smell is very faint, it's still there. That smell is from the paper he made specifically for you, and only those who understand medicine can detect it."

At this time, Chang'an seemed to understand what Canshang meant. Could it be that the paper that the emperor asked him to bring back was what Canshang wanted at this time?

But why didn't he ask me for it? Bei Mingxuan just took a look at those letters, but I was the one who brought them back. Relatively speaking, the scent on me should be stronger than Bei Mingxuan's.

"Perhaps I've experienced those things you mentioned?" Chang'an asked. "To be more precise, that smell should be stronger on me."

"The smell of [Begonia Noodles] on you has covered up the original smell." It was a simple explanation, and Chang'an understood.

But Chang An didn't expect that the thing he touched many days ago still had a smell. "Is that smell important to you?"

"Only my father can create that flavor. I've been looking for him for years but haven't found him."

Chang'an knew that Cang Shang was no younger than his father. "Do you recognize your father's handwriting?"

"Yes."

Chang An thought for a moment, then walked directly to Bei Mingxuan's side, took out a few pieces of paper from his arms, picked out a piece of paper with unimportant content, and gave it to Shen Shang, "Look, but these?"

Chang'an helped him not only because he was a member of the Fusheng Sect, but also because he wanted to know whether this person was dead or alive.

Chang'an had doubts about the emperor's words. If the person the emperor was talking about really existed, or if he was not dead, did it prove that the poison in Bei Mingxuan's body could be cured?

Bei Mingxuan clearly sensed Chang'an's thoughts. Seeing the expectation in his eyes, he felt a warmth from the bottom of his heart, which slowly spread throughout his body.

[For you, I won't let anything happen to myself.] Bei Mingxuan sent a message to Chang'an.
