Su Yushan lowered her voice and said, "I heard there is a kind of medicine that will make a man impotent and unable to have sex for three days, as if he were useless."
Upon hearing this, Hongli frowned and looked at her with a strange expression. "There's such a medicine? I've never heard of it before. Where did you hear about it?"
Actually, she read it in a novel during her modern times. At the time, she also found it strange, but novels are mostly made up and nothing is surprising, so Yu Shan didn't take it to heart.
Upon hearing about Li Yu's matter today, she suddenly remembered what was mentioned in the book, and then casually mentioned it, saying, "I saw it in a storybook, I'm not sure if it's true or not."
"What strange novels have you been reading, describing such secret matters? Let me see them too." Hongli also wanted to broaden his horizons, but Su Yushan said she had read too many and couldn't remember which one it was.
Hongli couldn't help but click his tongue repeatedly, "It seems you've been secretly reading quite a few erotic novels behind my back."
The person least qualified to speak to her was Hongli. Su Yushan pursed her cherry lips, quite dissatisfied. "You talk as if you're so upright. You use all sorts of tricks every night, and where did you learn them from?"
"Naturally, I learned it from indescribable books," Hongli coaxed, seizing the opportunity. "Would you like to read it? I can appreciate it with you."
"I don't want to watch!" Afraid that he would go off on a tangent again, Su Yushan quickly reminded him, "I'm talking to you about serious matters, don't interrupt."
Suppressing his playful expression, Hongli rested his head on his arm and said seriously, "The authenticity of the method you mentioned cannot yet be determined. Let me inquire further before making a decision."
"Who should we ask?" Su Yushan reminded her, "You'd better be careful not to let anyone guess anything."
That's true. Although there are many doctors, Hongli can't easily ask them questions. He originally wanted Demin to handle it, but it concerns Li Yu's safety. If Demin accidentally lets something slip, there will be even more trouble.
After much deliberation, Hongli decided to handle it personally. "I don't trust anyone else, so I can only ask the Fifth Prince. He knows the most about these unorthodox methods."
"Then Fifth Master will definitely ask you why you're asking about these things."
After a moment's thought, Hongli had an idea. "Don't worry, I have my own way of dealing with this."
Su Yushan's words guided him in the right direction, and for the sake of Li Yu's future, Hongli decided to give it a try.
The next day, when Hongli saw Hongzhou, he took the opportunity to ask him if he had that kind of medicine.
As Yu Shan had predicted, Hong Zhou was quite surprised and curiously pressed him for the reason.
Hongli lowered his voice and said, "There is a guard in the manor whose father has passed away. His concubine is quite cunning and wants to seize the family property. He learned that his concubine was having an affair with the accountant, so he wanted to expose the matter. However, the accountant actually said that he was not a real man and could not possibly have an affair. To prove his words, he actually dared to verify it in public."
The guard clearly witnessed their passionate encounter, so he suspected the accountant had taken some kind of drug. He was indignant and wanted me to help him. I've never heard of such a drug, which is why I thought I'd ask you.”
The matter was 80% true and 20% false. Hongli spoke with such conviction that Hongzhou took it as fact and began to discuss it with him in a low voice.
"Fourth Brother, you've come to the right person. I've heard of this medicine before. I've heard that it can indeed make people wither like flowers after taking it."
Hongli feigned disbelief, "Is there really such a peculiar medicine?"
"Yes, but it's very rare. I only know of one place that sells it. Firstly, it's too expensive, and secondly, it's too harmful to the body. I've heard that the effects of this medicine vary from person to person. Some people can recover after a few days, but some people become completely impotent after taking it and can never be a man again. So generally, no one buys it."
Hongzhou casually mentioned a shop name, which Hongli silently memorized. He then feigned surprise and exclaimed, "This world is truly full of wonders!"
After finding out the details, Hongli summoned Li Yu and his wife to Huatang Pavilion and told them about the medicine in front of Yu Shan.
Li Yu had always thought that the Fourth Prince would never help him, but unexpectedly, the Fourth Prince would personally go to great lengths for him. The Fourth Prince was always strict, so why would he suddenly change his mind? Could it be that Princess Su spoke up for him?
Li Yu didn't dare to ask about the reasons, but he heard Fourth Master say:
"Fifth Brother said that this medicine has drawbacks. Ordinary men might recover after taking it, or they might be ruined for life. Your situation is already special. Once you take it, you might not even have the slightest feeling left. You decide which path to take and whether to take the medicine."
If there's no longer any connection, wouldn't it be another disappointment? Li Yu looked at Yun Fang with a troubled expression. Yun Fang didn't hesitate for a moment and quickly made her decision.
“I don’t care about these things. I just don’t want Li Yu to be stabbed again. If he can’t hold on, he’ll lose his life. It’s better for him to take that medicine, get through it, and have a chance of survival.”
From beginning to end, Yunfang only cared about his safety. Li Yu was grateful and willing to take the risk. He then knelt down solemnly, pulled Yunfang to kowtow to his master and thank him, "This servant thanks Fourth Master for his benevolent kindness!"
Looking at the person beside him, Hongli smiled and reminded him, "You should thank Yushan; she's the one who came up with this idea."
Su Yushan dared not take credit, "I was just saying it casually, but it still depends on whether Fourth Master is willing to cooperate!"
Yunfang knew that Sister Yu must have said a lot of good things about Li Yu. Sincerely grateful, she also bowed and kowtowed, "We, the husband and wife, are deeply grateful for the great kindness of Fourth Master and Princess!"
After saying this, the two bowed again. Yu Shan hurriedly said that it was not necessary and stepped forward to help them up, saying, "We are family, so don't be so formal. As long as you and Li Yu are doing well, I will be at ease."
He had an idea, but Hongli couldn't buy the medicine himself, and neither could Li Yu. Fortunately, Li Yu's uncle was still in the capital. After discussing it, he decided to have his uncle buy the medicine for him. Anyway, his uncle would be returning to his hometown after a few days and wouldn't stay in the capital, so no one would recognize him.
