However, after being taught by Qin Zhao several times, Chen Yanan gradually found a way to study and it was no longer as difficult as before.
Jing Li knocked on the door.
"I'm coming!" The sound of reading in the room stopped, and Chen Yanan shouted loudly.
"...Who is it, late at night?" Chen Yan'an muttered as he walked over to open the door. When he saw the person standing in front of the door, he was stunned.
It's not his fault. Anyone who opens the door and sees two handsome young men, each with their own unique qualities, standing at the door would not be able to remain calm.
Chen Yanan opened his mouth and immediately blushed: "You, you, you...what are you looking for me for?"
Jing Li: “…”
Ayi: “?”
Is this person a stutterer?
Wasn’t it the same when we were reading just now?
Ayi blinked in confusion.
Jing Li already knew Chen Yan'an's character, so he sighed helplessly and explained his purpose to him.
Chen Yanan had not yet recovered from the shock. He was distracted by what he heard, his eyes darting around, and he didn't dare look at the two people in front of him.
Especially the young boy next to Jing Li.
Ayi is not as pretty as Jingli, but she has a pretty face and looks weak, gentle and shy.
It's a type that few people would dislike.
"...This is how it is, is that okay?" Jing Li asked.
Chen Yanan was absent-minded and said subconsciously: "Yes, yes, why not?"
Jing Li: "Thank you. You can pack up now. I'll take Ayi back first and come back later."
"Huh?" Chen Yan'an was bewildered. "What are you packing?"
Jing Li curled his lips and said, "Pack up your things and let the room go. Didn't you just agree to let Ayi and his grandfather stay here for a few days?"
Chen Yanan: “?”
.
At home, Xue Ren finished taking Qin Zhao's pulse and let go of his hand.
"It's nothing serious, it's just caused by deficiency of Qi and blood. You have been in poor health in recent years. After you have finished taking the Shen Huan Powder, I will prescribe some tonic for you and slowly recuperate." Xue Ren stroked his beard and said leisurely.
Qin Zhao: "Thank you, sir."
"You should thank me." Xue Ren smiled and said, "Luckily you met me. If you had continued to follow that prescription for a few more months, I'm afraid no matter how many tonics you took, you wouldn't be able to recover. I said that prescription was harmful, it really is..."
Qin Zhao's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked in a low voice: "Mr. Xue seems to know a lot about Shen Huan and the antidote?"
"Is that so?" Xue Ren smiled bitterly and subconsciously raised the teacup beside him to take a sip. "This medicine is not a secret. Which doctor in the world doesn't know it?"
Qin Zhao said, "But none of them would spend years developing an antidote like you did, sir. Especially since... Shen Huan has been listed as a banned drug for ten years."
Xue Ren paused.
Qin Zhao said, "Ever since I learned I was poisoned by Shen Huan, I've been secretly inquiring about it. Shen Huan was indeed prevalent in the Central Plains more than ten years ago, but since the new emperor ascended the throne ten years ago, the first decree he issued was to list Shen Huan as a banned drug and began promoting the antidote throughout the country."
"...It took the imperial court less than half a year to destroy all of the Shen Huan Powder, and another year and a half to wean everyone who had taken it off the drug. In just two years, Shen Huan completely vanished from the Central Plains... at least on the surface."
Qin Zhao paused, then continued, "Since this medicine no longer exists, why has Mr. Xue been researching an antidote? And after discovering that I was poisoned by Shen Huan, he couldn't wait to approach me and offer to detoxify me?"
"I knew you were a smart person." Xue Ren blew on the tiny tea leaves floating in the teacup and asked, "Why don't you guess why I did this?"
Qin Zhao was silent for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Chen Huansan... could it be that he has some connection with you, sir?"
"...Cough, cough, cough!" Xue Ren choked on his tea and coughed for a long time before recovering. "Sometimes being too smart is not a good thing. Remember what I said."
