Ling Xiang went to the ancestral hall. This time, Nanny Zhang brought the most powerful guards in the mansion with her. She was not afraid of Ling Xiang and said in a harsh voice, "Third Miss, please kneel down to save us from fighting. If we accidentally hurt you, it would be terrible."
Ling Xiang slowly turned around, looked down at Aunt Zhang and the others, and said with a cold smile, "Kneel? Who gave you this order? Second Uncle or Second Aunt?"
Aunt Zhang was frightened by Ling Xiang's eyes. Thinking of how she had just been beaten down by Ling Xiang, she said in a timid tone, "Third Miss, are you planning to fight again in the ancestral hall?"
"You can try." Ling Xiang ignored them, picked up a stick of incense, lit it, and carefully inserted it into the incense burner.
Ling Xiang's tone was calm, but Aunt Zhang felt inexplicably frightened. She didn't dare to act rashly in the ancestral hall. She immediately ordered the guards to close the door and instructed them, "Guard it well! No one is allowed to open this door without Madam's order!"
Ling Xiang took his own pulse.
Previously, she had taken a palm strike from Master Ling and was seriously injured. If she had golden needles in her hand, she could have used them to acupuncture the acupuncture points. It was a pity that her previous portable medical space was not brought with her.
The original book mentioned before the finale that in the ancestral hall of the Marquis of Zhenguo's Mansion, there was a secret book that her mother had left for Ling Xiang, and it was of a very high level.
Ling Xiang followed the description in the book and after a search, he found the box containing the secret book.
After making sure that the person guarding her outside the door was silent, she bit her finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the box.
The box slowly opened, revealing a scroll of secret manual and a bottle of elixir inside.
The secret book is also unlocked by blood. As soon as Ling Xiang took a drop of blood, a message instantly came into his mind. It was a cultivation method unique to the secret book.
At the same time, there was a sudden pain in the head, and then the space prompt sounded: "The space is being upgraded."
The medical space has been with Ling Xiang for many years, but this is the first time she knows that it can not only travel with her, but also be upgraded.
The intense pain in her head didn't allow Ling Xiang to think too much. She focused her mind and silently recited the mental method she had just obtained. The headache was indeed relieved a lot.
A whole night passed and the space upgrade was completed. Ling Xiang lay weakly on the cushion in the ancestral hall, checking the results of the space upgrade.
The inside was very different from what she remembered. The space had expanded almost ten times. Not only were there the advanced medical equipment and various precious medicinal materials she had bought, but there were also new medicinal fields and springs!
After careful testing, she confirmed that the medicinal spring was non-toxic and harmless, so she took a sip.
Instantly, a warmth flowed from her mouth into her dantian, sweeping away all her fatigue. Not only did her internal injuries heal for the most part, but she also felt a sense of strength she had never felt before.
But this power did not stay. After circulating in her body, it disappeared.
At this time, the sound of the door opening was heard. Ling Xiang slowly sat up and looked outside the door.
Mrs. Ling Er walked in and saw Ling Xiang in a miserable state. She remembered that Ling Xiang was slapped by Mr. Ling Er and was so angry that she wanted to slap Ling Xiang a few times.
But she didn't dare to embarrass Ling Xiang openly, so she pretended to come and take Ling Xiang out of the ancestral hall, "Xiang'er, you've worked hard guarding the ancestral hall all night. Come, take the third young lady to wash, change clothes and have breakfast."
Mrs. Ling wanted to act, but Ling Xiang was too lazy to waste time with her. "Thank you, Second Aunt."
Everything was normal until the beauty soup that Ling Xiang had always wanted to drink but never had the chance to drink was brought to her. She finally understood Mrs. Ling's intention.
The soup is a good one, with a lot of beauty-enhancing ingredients added to it. Unfortunately, someone deliberately added poison to it. If you drink it, within a few hours, your face will become red and swollen, like an allergy, and finally ulcerated. Even if it is cured, there will be ugly scars on your face.
In order to keep this face, you either have to take medicine to completely detoxify yourself or take antidote regularly.
It was obvious that Mrs. Ling wanted to use this to control her.
Ling Xiang seemed to be unaware of it and drank the beauty soup happily. She even thanked Mrs. Ling Er specially.
Seeing Ling Xiang drinking the soup foolishly, Mrs. Ling was very happy. She called Ling Yan, who was dressed in a gorgeous outfit, over and asked Ling Xiang about her well-being:
"The Prince of Qin's mansion is not like home. Your second uncle and I are worried about you going alone. Yan'er is a year older than you and will be more cautious. Let her go with you."
Ling Xiang frowned in embarrassment. "But the princess didn't say I could bring anyone else. If I bring more people, will the princess be unhappy? If the princess is unhappy and takes back her order, won't our family become a laughing stock in the capital?"
"How could that be? The princess likes you so much. If you just tell her that you're feeling uneasy being alone in the Prince Qin's mansion, she'll definitely agree to let you bring your sisters along."
Ling Xiang said innocently, "But I don't feel nervous. After all, the princess is so kind. I'm very happy to be closer to her."
Mrs. Ling Er's fake smile was almost broken. "Xiang'er, stop messing around. I'm doing this for your own good!"
Ling Yan was afraid that her plan to go to the Prince of Qin's mansion would fail, so she immediately echoed, "Third sister, the palace has very strict rules. If you're not careful, you can easily make mistakes. But don't worry, I've learned some palace rules. As long as I'm by your side and remind you frequently, I can ensure that everything goes smoothly for you in the palace."
Ling Xiang looked regretful: "Is that so? Since it's so troublesome, I'd better tell the princess that I won't go to the Prince Qin's Mansion to study."
Mrs. Ling was afraid that Ling Xiang would not go to the Qin Palace, and their wishful thinking would be dashed. She immediately said, "No, it's not a big deal. Xiang'er, Second Aunt and Second Uncle just hope that you two sisters can go together so that we can take care of each other."
"Then Second Aunt can go and talk to the eldest princess. As long as she agrees, everything will be easy." Ling Xiang was unmoved.
If Madam Ling Er could really convince the eldest princess, she wouldn't be arguing with Ling Xiang here. Seeing Ling Xiang's stubborn attitude, she gave up pretending and just waited for Ling Xiang's poison to take effect later. Then Ling Xiang would have to do whatever she told her to do! She had no choice but to obey!
After driving Mrs. Ling away in anger, Ling Xiang was in a very good mood. He went straight back to his yard, took out the golden needles and acupunctured himself, healing his internal injuries while controlling the poison he had just taken to a level that looked scary but did not damage his foundation.
Then she went straight to the room of her maid Xiaoyu.
In the original novel, the maidservant remained loyal to Ling Xiang. However, a few days after the original owner was framed in the Qin Palace, Xiaoyu suddenly died. The original owner was busy preparing for her marriage and had neither the energy nor the time to investigate Xiaoyu's death.
At this moment, Xiaoyu was lying on the bed, her face was pale, she was not covered with a quilt, and the sheets were covered with bloodstains, which was shocking to look at.
Ling Xiang immediately examined her and found that her external injuries were very serious, her internal injuries were not light either, and she had a high fever. She immediately took out medicine from the space and gave it to her to take. She applied the best golden wound medicine externally and used golden needles to acupuncture her. Then she stayed in the room, her consciousness immersed in the space, studying her newly acquired medicinal fields and medicinal springs.
The medicinal spring can be drunk and can treat internal injuries, but its other effects are not yet clear.
As for the medicinal field, the space said that all plants could be grown there, but she didn't have any seeds, so she had to buy seeds to experiment.
