Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World-Chapter 187 - 188 The Wrong Medicine

Chapter 187: Chapter 188 The Wrong Medicine Chapter 187 -188 The Wrong Medicine That night, Shao He went to find Yun Qian to ask for leave and learned he was in the pharmacy room again.

When she arrived outside the pharmacy room, she raised her hand and knocked on the door, “Yun Qian, are you in there?”

“Come in.”

Shao He stepped inside and found him engrossed in studying medicinal herbs. Assuming he intended to go to the Imperial Medical Bureau, she casually mentioned, “With your medical skills, going to the Imperial Medical Bureau would be feasible.”

Before, Shao He had thought that, with Yun Qian’s medical skills, he would have more than sufficed for the Imperial Medical Bureau. Why then had he chosen to open his own pharmacy? Now she surmised he must feel that he still lacked something.

However, if he were to go to the Imperial Medical Bureau, wouldn’t that mean…

“Are you planning to sell Anji Hall?”

Yun Qian finally looked up from the herbs, his brows furrowed as he shook his head in denial, “I’m not going to the Imperial Medical Bureau, and Anji Hall will not be sold.”

“Then what exactly are you working so hard for?” inquired Shao He, puzzled.

Yun Qian handed her the medicinal residue he had been studying, “Take a look at this for me, what effect does this prescription have?”

Shao He took the herbs and examined them carefully, then brought them to her nose and sniffed, “There’s one ingredient missing from this residue, but it’s unclear exactly what it is. If you add two different herbs, it could lead to completely opposite effects, even neutralizing each other.”

Shao He shared her observations with Yun Qian, and he nodded, “I considered that too, but I’m curious about how to cleanly pick out the other person’s medicine remains.”

Shao He didn’t understand what he needed this information for, but guessed it must be related to whatever Yun Qian had been busy with recently.

But whose prescription was this, and how did it come to be in his hands? Judging by how dry the herbs were, it seemed they had been there for quite some time.

“Actually, it’s quite simple; just wrap the herbs in gauze when boiling them, and afterwards take them out,” Shao He didn’t see any difficulty in this, it seemed like a straightforward matter.

Upon hearing her explanation, Yun Qian had a sudden realization, “Of course, gauze, why didn’t I think of that!”

“However, maybe you could have smelled something if the residue was freshly made, but this one is too old, it’s impossible to smell any other mixed medicines in it.”

Shao He shook her head. Even those with exceptional medical skills might not be able to identify the other ingredients, and from the look of the bits left, it seemed likely to be a woman’s medication.

Yun Qian seemed to have thought of something and immediately began to pack these items away.

Seeing him ready to leave again, Shao He grabbed his arm and said, “Wait a moment, I still have something I haven’t told you.”

Yun Qian turned to look at her, asking, “What is it?”

“I have something to do tomorrow, and I would like to take the day off,” Shao He quickly said.

“Okay,” Yun Qian replied, and without looking back, he left.

“Hey, don’t forget to come over for the consultations tomorrow,” Shao He called out loudly to his receding figure.

Unfortunately, she received no reply.

Shao He hung her head in resignation. The clinic would probably be unable to operate without her.

Returning to the residence that night, Shao He instructed Qing Shan and Qingxia to pack some simple belongings.

“Miss, where are we going?” Qingxia asked, puzzled.

“Back to the Shao Family home.”

“The Shao Family?” Qingxia and Qing Shan chorused in unison.

The sisters were surprised. Their young miss had always harbored strong resentment towards the Shao Family, so much so that not even Old Madam Shao’s personal visit could earn her a pleasant demeanor. Now suddenly, she decided to return.

“You go and pack first. We’ll leave early tomorrow morning. It will be just the two of you coming along, Nanny Zhang will stay,” said Shao He.

Shao He didn’t want to bring too many people along, plus this trip wasn’t going to be simple. Nanny Zhang didn’t know martial arts, and her presence would be inconvenient.

Nanny Zhang expressed her concern, “Miss, are you sure you don’t want this old servant to come with you?”

“You stay here at the house.”

“Well then! Miss, please be very careful on the road.”

Shao He responded with a light nod and asked Nanny Zhang to leave.

Shao He indifferently stated, “Just take care of packing your things, don’t worry about anything else.”

“Yes!” the two maidens replied respectfully.

The next morning, just as Shao He got out of bed, she heard a knock at the door.

Opening the door, Qingxia greeted her with a beaming smile, “Miss, I’ve prepared the clothes you usually wear, try them on to see if they fit.”

Shao He took the clothes and after changing, she instructed, “Go pick out a few sets of jewelry.”

“Right away, I’ll go now,” Qingxia left cheerfully.

After washing up and eating something, Shao He sat in front of a bronze mirror, the two maidens helping her with her makeup and hair.

Half a Chinese hour later, Shao He had transformed into a demure and virtuous young lady.

She wore a light blue dress with a moon-white silk sash tied around her waist, her long hair draped over her shoulders, her delicate features and fair, baby-smooth skin glowing with a natural blush, akin to rouge.

Her pure and beautiful face, though unadorned by makeup, was more radiant than the beauty of blossoms and the splendor of the moon, beyond the charm of closed lotuses and the shyness of flowers.

Shao He examined herself all around, very satisfied with her current look—not overly glamorous but exceptionally dignified and virtuous.

“Miss, all done, please have a look,” Qingxia said as she placed a beaded flower in Shao He’s hair.

Fingering the beaded flower in her hair, Shao He inquired, “Who gave this to me?”

Qingxia chuckled, “Miss, have you forgotten? This is the pearl hairpin that the Fifth Prince gave you a few days ago.”

When Pei Huaian was mentioned, Shao He remembered the words he had said to her, and her thoughts began to drift.

Unable to help herself, Qingxia exclaimed, “Miss, your appearance now is unspeakably beautiful.”

Shao He gathered her thoughts and replied with a shallow smile, “Let’s go then, we shall depart.”
