Yuan Hongjun continued, “Yes, Miss Chu, we’re going to the capital anyway.”

His grandfather was the Chief Physician of the Imperial Hospital. He had grown up in the Imperial Hospital.

Chu Qingzhi nodded and took the pen and paper. “Hongjun, do you really want to bring your medical skill to another level?”

Yuan Hongjun nodded heavily. “Yes.”

Chu Qingzhi’s expression became serious. She handed the pen to Yuan Hongjun. “Take down the things 1 said.”

Yuan Hongjun said solemnly, “Got it.”

Chu Qingzhi took the cloth that was used to wipe Tang Jinghong’s blood and sniffed it. “There are 20 types of poisonous herbs in this poison. They are Thunder God Vine, Asarum, Henbane… Nux Vomica, Lopseed, and so on.”

Yuan Hongjun’s eyes widened like two bells. He felt like he was a complete beginner in front of Chu Qingzhi. “M-Miss Chu, you can tell what’s in the poison by just smelling it?”

He had also identified ten types of herbs in the poison, but it took him a long time.

Chu Qingzhi was confident and calm. “Let me tell you how I did it…”

For the next period of time, Chu Qingzhi told him her analytical method.

Yuan Hongjun was filled with admiration. “Miss Chu, you are hands-down the best doctor I’ve seen. I must acknowledge you as my master.”

Chu Qingzhi continued, “The root of asarum is harmful to the kidneys. The Thunder God Vine hurts the heart, and henbane will cause serious harm to the lungs…”

Yuan Hongjun was enlightened. “I know how to make the antidote now.”

In ancient times, poisons were directly extracted from plants and mixed according to a certain ratio.

Therefore, the antidote was also made according to the ratio of the herbs in the poison. It was very simple.

Chu Qingzhi did not have to worry about the rest.

Yuan Hongjun said excitedly, “Brother Tang, Miss Chu, go find an inn first. I’ll come and find you later.”

Tang Jinghong was worried. “We’ll wait for you here. When you’re done, we’ll go together.”

Yuan Hongjun said, “Brother Tang, it will take a few attempts to make the antidote. It rarely succeeds in one attempt. I might have to stay until midnight or even longer.”

The owner of the medical hall walked over. “There are a few empty rooms in the medical center. If you don’t mind, you can stay.”

Yuan Hongjun was too generous. He gave the owner of the medical hall 50 taels of silver, so the owner’s attitude was very good.

Tang Jinghong thought for a moment and agreed. “Thank you, Boss.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Jinghong, you’re seriously injured. Go lie on the bed.”

Tang Jinghong was indeed not feeling well, so he agreed. “Okay.”

Just as he said that, a team of soldiers walked in. The leader was An Changfeng. He rushed over and knelt on one knee in front of Tang Jinghong. “General, I should have come to your rescue earlier.”

“It’s not your fault.” Tang Jinghong frowned slightly and said, “How are the refugees?”

An Changfeng said, “General, don’t worry. We’ve stopped them from advancing towards the capital.”

It was not convenient to talk here… Tang Jinghong stood up. Chu Qingzhi hurriedly supported him. “Changfeng, come in with me.”

An Changfeng replied, “Yes.”

The soldiers guarded outside, and An Changfeng walked in with Tang Jinghong alone.

The boss of the medical hall, the staff, and the patients were so frightened that they did not dare to move. They did not expect the seriously injured man to be so powerful. He was actually a general.

The boss broke out in a cold sweat and quickly recalled if he had done anything wrong during this period. Seeing that he had not done anything wrong, he heaved a sigh of relief.

After entering the room, Tang Jinghong sat on the bed. Even though his face was a little pale, the pressure he exuded did not decrease at all. “Have you cleaned up the canyon?”

An Changfeng replied respectfully, “The corpses have been cleaned up, the arrows have been put away, and the memorial has been written. General, when do you want to submit it to His Majesty?”

“Now, there’s no evidence to prove that it was done by the Lord of the Northern Border. Submit the memorial secretly. Send those crossbows back to the capital and hand them to the Divine Machine Battalion so that they can study it.”

Tang Jinghong said sarcastically, “The Northern Border has already developed a crossbow that can shoot 30 arrows in a row, but ours can only shoot ten at most.”

There were no outsiders here, so An Changfeng said bluntly, “General, it’s all because the Divine Machine Battalion is too useless!”

Tang Jinghong instructed, “Send someone to find out who improved the crossbow. If we can poach him, bring him to me immediately. If we can’t poach him, kill him.”

An Changfeng cupped his fists. “Yes, General.”

“General, there’s an epidemic at the camp. The military doctors are not around. What should we do?”

Tang Jinghong took a pen and paper and drew a simple map. He handed it to An Changfeng. “These marked locations have water veins. After you return, bring the refugees to Xu City. There are many locusts outside Xu City. Those locusts can be fried and eaten to treat the disease.”

Actually, using a locust to treat the disease sounded ridiculous, but An Changfeng had no intention of doubting his words at all. “General, I’ll do it immediately.”

Tang Jinghong instructed, “I’ll return to the capital next. I’ll leave the refugees to you and Tan Yibin. After you go back, get Shen Yufeng to meet me. He’s still poisoned.”

He lowered his voice and continued, “The real grains are still in Xiling County. Bring some people to secretly transport them away. After the refugees are sent back to where they come from, give them the grains.”

“In addition, after escorting the refugees back to their respective villages, get the county magistrate to distribute seeds and help the villagers sow the seeds. Otherwise, even if they return, they will starve to death.”

All of these arrangements could only work when Chu Qingzhi successfully prayed for rain. He trusted her unconditionally, even if she said she was just giving it a try.

An Changfeng was shocked to find the grains were actually taken to a secret place long ago. His general was really amazing. He could not help but admire him even more. “Yes, General.”

An Changfeng quickly left with his men.

Shen Yufeng rushed to the medical center two hours later. “General.”

Tang Jinghong instructed, “Go and prepare a few fast horses. We’ll return to the capital tomorrow.”

Shen Yufeng cupped his fists. “Yes, General.”

Yuan Hongjun was indeed worthy of being called the Little Divine Doctor. After being enlightened, his medical skills improved again. He perfectly concocted the antidote within three attempts.

The three of them took it and were soon cured of the poison.

Chu Qingzhi had unknowingly gained the fourth fan.

The number one fan was Fang Zerong, number two was Shen Ruyue, and number three was Tang Jinghong.

Chu Qingzhi entered the room with the medicine. “Jinghong, I’ll change your dressing.”

Tang Jinghong, who had been very dignified just now, immediately revealed his innocent boy side. His long eyelashes, which were like black brushes, fluttered a few times. He turned around and took off his clothes.

Chu Qingzhi loved this side of Tang Jinghong. She put down the tray and deliberately leaned on Tang Jinghong’s shoulder. Her lips were very close as she said in a slightly coquettish tone, “General, can you buy me beautiful clothes when we reach the capital?”

Tang Jinghong’s heart was pounding. He said gently and dotingly, “I’ll buy you whatever you want.”

Chu Qingzhi kissed Tang Jinghong. “This is your reward.”

Tang Jinghong’s ears quickly turned red.

Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong’s red ears and realized that she liked this shy man more and more..
