Rebirth of the Exclusive Herbalist

Chapter 25



After the welcoming banquet, Su Zhijin and Lord Chu talked in the study for about a quarter of an hour before leaving Huaining Marquis’ Mansion and going to Wuchang Marquis’ Mansion to visit his pregnant elder sister. Su Qingqi was kept by Lord Chu.

In the study, the incense burner was lit, and the scent of sandalwood was rising.

Su Qingqi sat quietly opposite Lord Chu, looking anxiously at his handsome face, which was rarely solemn, waiting for him to speak.

“Aqi, you were too careless today. The fewer people who know your abilities, the better.” Lord Chu sighed.

“I know, but the atmosphere was so good, I…I…” Su Qingqi lowered her head. In fact, after she told him about her abilities, she soon regretted it. Perhaps it was her eldest brother’s rare warmth that made her let down her guard.

As expected, in ancient times, people were cautious for a long time, so once they relaxed, they would easily open up to others.

Su Qingqi smiled bitterly in her heart.

Is it because she found the golden thigh?

“That’s good to know. I’ve just explained to your eldest brother that the story of you helping me prolong my life is completely false. I just tried to comfort you. The truth is that Master Liaokong looked at your birth date and said that you are my destined wife. As long as you and I get married, the curse of my short life will be broken. Remember, if I’m still alive in two years, this is what you’ll say to the outside world.”

Lord Chu felt that Ah Qi was still too young and not cautious enough in her actions.

Fortunately, Su Zhijin still didn’t quite believe in Ah Qi’s unreal ability, and his explanation just dispelled his doubts. After all, there was a precedent for such a thing.

The so-called “rushing happiness” in folk culture actually has this meaning, but you really have to find the right master and the right person.

Master Liaokong is an accomplished monk, and everyone believes in his words.

Su Zhijin is no exception.

“Really? That’s great!” Su Qingqi looked up in surprise and breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t expect that the Marquis would help her solve the hidden danger. She had heard of the name of Master Kong, the eminent monk, more than once.

It really works well.

Lord Chu used it very easily!

No wonder her elder brother’s words when he left the Marquis’ Mansion left her confused. Now that she thought about it, her elder brother was trying to comfort her. Su Qingqi stared at Marquis Chu’s thick golden thigh with sparkling eyes, feeling very depressed.

She didn’t expect that Lord Chu was already prepared!

But she is the pig teammate who betrays her teammates!

“And as for your maid named Minglan, I will ask Chu Yi to give her a hint.” Lord Chu decided to solve the problem at once.

“Okay!” Su Qingqi nodded carefully. The lesson this time made her realize clearly that even if she had a golden thigh, she still couldn’t relax.

Minglan is a maid she trusts, but just in case, should she do as Lord Chu says?

Lord Chu smiled with satisfaction.

After returning to the Wuchang Marquis Mansion, Su Qingqi found that the atmosphere in the Wuchang Marquis Mansion was a bit weird. The servants coming and going would secretly glance at her from time to time. She glanced at Minglan, and Minglan understood and hurriedly went to find a servant to inquire.

Before Minglan could find out anything, a pretty maid in a light green dress came out from the corner of the corridor. When she saw her, her face lit up, and she quickly went over to her and bowed, “Miss Su San, you’re back just in time. The eldest young lady’s wife invites you over.”

Su Qingqi was stunned. It was almost evening now, and wasn’t her elder sister having dinner with her elder sister and brother-in-law?

Together with Minglan, she followed the maid in the light green dress to her eldest sister’s yard.

Minglan was stopped by the woman in the light green dress and stayed outside the house. Su Qingqi then entered the house and was extremely surprised to find that her eldest sister, eldest brother-in-law, second sister Su Qinghan, and eldest brother Su Zhijin were all there.

All the maids and nannies were cleared out.

“Third sister, you’re back just in time. Come and sit down.” Seeing her third sister coming back, Su Qingwan quickly asked her to come and sit down. Everyone was finally together.

Su Qingqi called everyone one by one before sitting down.

“This afternoon, the emperor summoned me to the palace and mentioned my second sister to me.” The eldest brother-in-law glanced at the people present, finally settling on Su Qinghan. He coughed lightly and spoke first.

Su Qingqi waited quietly for what was to come.

“His Majesty said that my second sister presented a prescription she developed herself. This prescription can produce a powder that can quickly stop bleeding and heal wounds within 30 breaths. The Imperial Hospital has confirmed the effectiveness of my second sister’s powder.” The eldest brother-in-law continued, his handsome face solemn.

This prescription is extremely useful, and His Majesty has already planned to use it on the imperial army.

The person in charge of one-third of the imperial army is Marquis Huaining. Given the emperor’s trust and respect for Marquis Huaining, it can be said that the prescription will definitely fall into Marquis Huaining’s hands in the end.

“The second sister is so amazing!” Su Qingqi couldn’t help but praise her. 30 breaths are about one minute. Such miraculous medicine is extremely rare in modern times.

Su Qingwan just smiled and became more and more wary of her second sister.

She didn’t expect her second sister to hide so deeply.

The eldest brother-in-law nodded in agreement and looked at Su Qinghan with an ambiguous look in his eyes: “Indeed, the second sister’s talent in medicine is probably unique in the entire Daqing Dynasty, so the emperor agreed to a condition proposed by my second sister!”

“The prescription is a secret recipe created by my second sister, but I don’t know what conditions she put forward?” Su Zhijin frowned slightly and looked at Su Qinghan with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Su Qingqi held her breath and concentrated; she knew the highlight was coming.

She guesses this is the purpose of everyone gathering here.

“My second sister told His Majesty that she loves the Fourth Prince!”

“The emperor has issued an order to give my second sister to the fourth prince as a concubine.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present, except Su Qinghan, looked shocked, and the smile on Su Qingwan’s face also disappeared.

Su Zhijin suddenly put the teacup down heavily with a bang. Su Qingqi was startled and looked at her elder brother, who was trying hard to suppress his anger. She felt a sense of heaviness in her heart.

After all, the Su family is related to the prince. The Wuchang Marquisate and the future Huaining Marquisate, who are related to the Su family by marriage, are likely to be assigned to the Fourth Prince’s faction.

What on earth was Su Qinghan thinking? She had the audacity to ask His Majesty to marry the Fourth Prince.

Su Qinghan was extremely calm, sipping her tea with an elegant smile, but she sneered in her heart. She knew that her brother-in-law and eldest brother were unhappy and angry at her for taking the initiative, but unfortunately, the matter was done, and they couldn’t change it even if they wanted to.

The Su family didn’t dare to expel her from the family again!

In her previous life, after learning about the golden finger she was carrying, she chose a path that was not suitable for her between two options. She made herself into a Mary Sue who was almost omnipotent except for her lack of medical skills. She enjoyed unlimited glory and favor. Unfortunately, on the second day after the prince ascended the throne, she died tragically in the deep palace. Before her death, she exhausted all the energy of the golden finger, and time went back to the time when she had just traveled through time.

After being reborn, she vowed to make the murderer pay with blood! She stepped on her eldest and third sisters, who stood by and ignored her call for help.

So she chose medicine, abandoned the choice she made in her previous life, and followed the path taken by her third sister in her previous life.

Of course, she would not choose the man her third sister married in her previous life.

It was only because of her third sister that he was granted the title of nobility and appointed as prime minister.

If it weren’t for the accident at the horse farm that caused her to be involved with Prince Li Chan, she would not have brought forward this plan. In this way, the Fourth Prince might use her more than like her.

The only difference is that in her previous life, she was just a favorite concubine of the Fourth Prince, but in this life, she is a concubine granted by the Emperor, and her status is second only to the Fourth Prince’s wife.

There is always gain and loss!
