Doctor Li was silent for a moment before replying, "It is indeed Sect Leader Qi, but I wonder how my junior sister is doing now?"
"So, you and Sect Master Qi have a history in that sense."
Dr. Li nodded and replied helplessly, "Yes."
I never imagined that he would become the sect leader of the Divine Healer Sect, someone I could never compare to. My junior sister must be doing very well now!
"What information was missing from the medical records at the time?" Mu Chenshuang continued to ask.
Doctor Li replied, "The art of meridian manipulation."
The Meridian Pushing Technique is the treatment method she left behind. Its contents are extremely profound, and only a very few talented healers can understand its mysteries. If an ordinary person holds this book, it is just a useless book.
This technique can not only cure difficult and complicated diseases, but for martial arts practitioners, if they can understand and skillfully use the technique, it is definitely a top-notch martial arts manual. It is a treasured manual whether it is used to improve martial arts skills or as a deadly technique.
Since someone dared to steal, this person could not possibly be an ordinary person.
How can we confirm that the thief was Dr. Li based on this alone?
"Are you really not suspicious of anyone?"
Dr. Li sighed and said, "So many years have passed, even if there were any, it would be of no use now."
Looking at Doctor Li's helplessness, Mu Chenshuang realized that so many years had passed, and now that he was no longer with the Divine Physician Sect, there was no way to investigate and prove his innocence.
She didn't ask any more questions and said, "Tomorrow at Chenshi (7-9 AM), go outside the city, to the usual place."
Dr. Li was taken aback, as if he understood something.
Mu Chenshuang slowly stood up and said, "Doctor Li, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."
"Thank you, Princess Weiyang."
As soon as Mu Chenshuang stepped out the door, she heard a slight noise coming from the roof. Pretending not to notice anything, she left the pharmacy.
Mu Chenshuang returned to the Marquis's residence.
When Linglong saw her mistress return, the weight that had been on her mind finally lifted.
"Nothing's wrong, why are you so worried?" Mu Chenshuang comforted her.
"In less than two months, Miss, you have encountered danger multiple times. How can this not worry us?" Compared to the dangers you have faced now, the things you did in the East Palace, such as being framed by Consort Xiao and angering the Crown Prince, are simply insignificant.
She finally understood what the young lady meant when she told her to leave.
But she still has no regrets.
"It's all over now, don't worry."
Linglong hummed in agreement. "Miss, your medicine is ready. I'll bring it to you."
"kindness."
Linglong quickly brought the medicine over.
Mu Chenshuang picked up the medicine bowl, drank it, and put the bowl down. Linglong reached out and took it, saying, "General Shen just came by and brought some snacks and fruit, but he didn't stay long. He seemed quite busy, and he said he would come to see you again tonight, Miss."
Now that the New Year is over and he has returned to the capital, the emperor will surely assign him an important position.
That's fine too.
She really didn't have the heart to explain what happened on the night of the Lantern Festival.
Mu Chenshuang didn't ask any further questions, and simply gave a faint "hmm".
Seeing that her mistress didn't react much, Linglong couldn't help but ask, "Miss, are you really not planning to rekindle your relationship with General Shen?"
Mu Chenshuang looked up at Linglong and said, "I've already talked about these things before, so you don't need to worry about my love life anymore."
Linglong mumbled an "Mmm," and said, "Miss, I understand."
It wasn't until 9 PM that Shen Nanzhi returned from the army. He went to the Marquis's residence, inquired with the guards at the gate, and learned that Mu Chenshuang had returned to the residence early in the morning, which put his mind at ease.
Although he really wanted to go in and ask her what had happened today, it was already so late, and he figured she must have already gone to bed, so he didn't go in to disturb her.
Just as he mounted his horse and prepared to leave.
Suddenly realizing something, I turned around and saw a figure disappear into the Marquis's mansion like a ghost, moving so fast that it was almost imperceptible.
The direction he infiltrated was precisely where Tingzhuyuan was located.
Instantly.
His heart tightened involuntarily.
Listen to the bamboo courtyard.
As Mu Chenshuang prepared to go to sleep, she carried the candle lamp toward the bed. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind came from behind her, causing the flowing gauze curtains to flutter in the air.
Beneath the falling curtains, a tall and imposing figure embraced Mu Chenshuang tightly from behind.
Mu Chenshuang stood there, the man's breath washing over her like a tide, her nostrils filled with his unique fragrance.
She didn't struggle at all, letting the man behind her hold her. The candlelight shone on her beautiful face, making it appear unusually deep and dim.
All she heard was a deep, magnetic voice from beside her ear: "If I said I was sincere towards you, would you believe me?"
In the end, only he was angry, only he was deeply mired in it, and only his reason was crumbling.
Yet she could be so composed.
His words shocked Mu Chenshuang. Her heart felt as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer. Her heart pounded, and her hand holding the candlestick tightened involuntarily, her whole body stiffening.
She didn't know how to respond to him.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent. The night breeze that blew in lifted the gauze curtains, and the flickering candlelight illuminated the two people who were closely embracing each other. It was so beautiful and romantic.
Instantly.
The candle in Mu Chenshuang's hand was blown out, plunging the entire room into darkness. No one spoke, and the two were so quiet that they could almost hear each other's heartbeats.
After a long while.
All that could be heard was Mu Chenshuang's bitter smile, her tone filled with helplessness and sigh, "In this world, how much does true sincerity really matter? You are the noble Crown Prince, the future emperor. What kind of beautiful woman wouldn't you have? I will only be a passerby in your life, so why do you have to do this, Crown Prince Junheng?"
How could an emperor not have three palaces and six courtyards?
Thinking about this, her heart clenched with each passing moment.
However, the moment she finished speaking, she clearly felt the force of his arms tighten around her.
