Chapter 158 The Greatest Concession (1/2)



Xiao Yanchu was stunned for a moment before realizing that the poison in his body had never acted up again after he and Su Ruojin fell into the cave.

At that moment, both of them were focused on curing the venom of the human-faced snake and finding a way out, and completely forgot about this matter.

Only after Shen Yu reminded him did Xiao Yanchu remember.

The only difference from before is that he was poisoned by the human-faced snake and was eating the "Eat-Fu-Supplement Grass" every day.

Could it be that these two things suppressed the toxicity?

While Xiao Yanchu was wondering about this, Su Ruojin, who was preparing the antidote materials for tomorrow, also suddenly realized the problem.

Since returning to the Prince's residence, the two have been busy with their own affairs, and she has not yet seen Xiao Yanchu.

She got up, intending to have Xiao Yanchu examine her pulse to see what was wrong, when Yanluo walked in.

"Miss, Aunt Sulan has arrived. She says the Dowager Princess wishes to see you."

Su Ruojin thought it was time to take the pulse of the Dowager Consort. After Xiao Yanchu's poison was cured, it would be the Dowager Consort's turn.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Upon arriving at Yilan Courtyard and entering the room, Su Ruojin saw the Dowager Consort standing in front of her desk, looking down at something intently.

Upon seeing Su Ruojin, Consort Jiang was taken aback for a moment: "Doctor Su, your face..."

Su Ruojin bowed and replied, "Greetings, Your Highness. I accidentally came into contact with some poisonous herbs, but I'll be fine in a while."

Consort Jiang breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." Then she smiled and beckoned to her: "Doctor Su, come here quickly and give me some advice."

Su Ruojin did as she was told and went over. She saw that the table was full of portraits of young women, and each portrait had a detailed background description in the lower right corner.

Consort Jiang was looking at Moyou, the daughter of the Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices.

At the tender age of fifteen, her mother was the daughter of the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, a woman of great learning, beauty, and intelligence, and yet to be married.

The woman in the portrait holds a round fan, sits under a tree, and smiles, looking graceful and charming.

Consort Jiang held the portrait up to Su Ruojin's face: "What do you think of this girl?"

Su Ruojin remained composed and replied politely, "Miss Mo is beautiful and dignified."

Consort Jiang nodded, "Yes, I also think he's a good person, it's just a pity that he comes from a humble background, alas." After saying that, she put down Mo You's painting and picked up another one.

"This is the young princess of the Marquis of Yong'an family. She is sixteen years old. I think she is quite good-looking, right, Doctor Su?"

Su Ruojin readily agreed and nodded: "Of course, the princess is a good one."

Consort Jiang sighed again and shook her head slightly: "He is a good person, but I don't know if Chu'er will like him."

Su Ruojin's eyes flickered slightly, but she didn't reply.

"Oh dear, look at me, I was so busy having Doctor Su accompany me to look at the portrait that I forgot about the important matter. Doctor Su, come, sit here. You've been away from the manor for over a month now, have you returned to Yanyang?"

Consort Jiang kindly took Su Ruojin's hand and sat her down on the couch, asking with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Su Ruojin knew that the people in the Prince's Mansion had not told Consort Jiang the truth, probably out of concern for her health.

She nodded in agreement: "Yes, there are some things at Yan Yang Medical Clinic that I need to go back and take care of."

"Sigh, it must be really tough for a young lady like you to run a clinic. Have you ever considered finding a husband to help you? You wouldn't have to work so hard." Consort Jiang took a sip of the ginseng tea that Aunt Sulan handed her and sighed.

"There's not much going on at the clinic, I can manage." Su Ruojin lowered her eyes, it seemed that Consort Jiang had summoned her here today for more than just a pulse diagnosis.
