Lin Yingmin was thoroughly excited, "Really? Did she say that?"

The servant sighed inwardly, noting his master's obvious special regard for Miss Chu. However, with Miss Chu already betrothed, he was destined to be disappointed.

He opened his mouth, wanting to convey this, but the words died on his lips. It seemed too cruel to shatter his master's rare smile.

"Master, Miss Chu told me herself," he finally said.

Lin Yingmin's heart raced with excitement. "I can finally see her again."

The servant lowered his head, finding it harder to speak the truth.

First Madam Lin, the family matriarch, entered with a gentle smile, appearing amiable. "Yingmin, what brings you such joy?"

Lin Yingmin, unguarded towards First Madam Lin, shared everything…

First Madam Lin maintained her smile, but her hidden hand clenched her sleeve, her heart bursting with hatred. Wanting to heal your legs? Impossible.

"Yingmin, it's not that I want to stop you, but I suspect that they're likely fraudsters," First Madam Lin said patiently, determined to thwart this matter.

Hearing this, the servant bowed even lower. He would have believed First Madam Lin if he hadn't seen Miss Chu Qingzhi himself. A lady like her wouldn't stoop to deceit.

Lin Yingmin trusted First Madam very much. After hearing First Madam's words and thinking about what the servant said, he didn't know who to believe for a moment.

After a while, he thought of a solution.

"First Madam, let's try. If she can't help me stand, I won't pay her. What do you think?"

This was his only hope. He had to seize it. Miss Chu, as long as you come to treat my legs, I will give you the consultation fee. What I said just now was just a temporary measure.

Seeing that Lin Yingmin seemed to have made up his mind, First Madam Lin stopped persuading him. However, an even more vicious plan began to brew.

"Alright, let's do as you say," First Madam Lin said affectionately, as if truly caring for Lin Yingmin.

"Thank you, First Madam," Lin Yingmin expressed gratefully.

Madam Lin smiled, "Rest now. I have other matters to attend to."

"Take care, First Madam," Lin Yingmin responded respectfully.

…

After Madam Lin left Lin Yingmin's residence, she immediately summoned her trusted aide, instructing him to add a certain herb to Lin Yingmin's medicine to induce unconsciousness.

Without consciousness, he would surely forget about curing his legs.

The herb would weaken him day by day in his sleep, eventually leading to his quiet demise.

First Madam Lin smirked sinisterly as she returned to her courtyard.

…

At the outskirts of the capital, in the military camp…

Yuan Hongjun led Chu Qingzhi into the tent, "Master, this is where Little Abalone and I usually prepare medicines."

Chu Qingzhi surveyed the spacious area and noticed the complete and high-quality medical equipment.

Chu Qingning couldn't help but admire, "This setup is amazing." Follow current novelenglish.net . s on ɴo(v)elꜰɪre.ɴet

Yuan Hongjun said, "If you like, you can have a similar setup in the future. We'll help you then."

Chu Qingning smiled and nodded. "Okay."

Little Jun and Little Lin ran in. When they saw Chu Qingzhi, they were extremely excited and actually rolled on the ground. They were extremely cute.

It had been a while since Chu Qingzhi had seen the tigers. They had grown from cubs to adolescents in a few months.

She knelt and stroked their heads, and they joyfully rubbed against her palm.

Bao Linjiang, watching the affectionate tigers, expressed envy and disbelief, "Master, they never let others touch them, but with you, they're so happy. It's really unfair."

"Can't you touch them?" Chu Qingzhi asked with a smile.

Bao Linjiang puffed his cheeks, "I can, but only a few times. Any more and they run away. White tigers are proud creatures. Being allowed to touch them is already a privilege."

Yuan Hongjun teased, "You're not a child anymore. Why play with tigers?"

Bao Linjiang rolled his eyes at Yuan Hongjun. "Who wanted to hug the tiger to sleep a few days ago."

Yuan Hongjun would never admit such an embarrassing thing. "You made it up. Enough nonsense. let's prepare the medicine."

Chu Qingzhi brought a basket filled with herbs, including snow lotus, which thrived in high mountains. Without the nourishment of her spiritual energy, they would have wilted.

As soon as the snow lotus wilted, the medicinal effect decreased sharply.

"The medicine I'm preparing today is called 'Revival Pill,' with two main effects," she explained while sorting the herbs.

"One is to nourish the body. Taking one pill can relieve all kinds of injuries, internal and external. With two pills, you'll fully recover."

"The other is for detoxification, effective against any poison. One pill protects the heart, and two can completely detoxify."

She had specially prepared this for Tang Jinghong, who had once been critically ill due to overwork. Though much improved, he hadn't fully recovered yet.

…

Chu Qingzhi's soft voice spread gently throughout the tent, enlightening her disciples with her knowledge.

Although Chu Qingning struggled to understand everything due to her short training in medicine, Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang often had moments of clarity, thanks to their years of experience.

…

A soldier approached Fang Zerong to curry favor, "Doctor Fang, Miss Chu has arrived at the camp and is in the tent with the two young doctors."

Fang Zerong stood excitedly, "When did she arrive? Why didn't anyone inform me?"

The soldier hastily replied, "She just arrived, and I came to tell you as soon as she did."

"Thank you for this," Fang Zerong said before rushing out of his tent.

Arriving at Yuan Hongjun's tent, he could clearly hear Chu Qingzhi's voice and was overjoyed, "Miss Chu."

Chu Qingzhi emerged, "Dr. Fang, what brings you here?"

Fang Zerong spoke excitedly, "I heard you were here and came to see you."

"Thank you for making the trip," Chu Qingzhi said, then offered, "I'm teaching my disciples to prepare medicine. Would you like to join and offer some guidance to them?"

Fang Zerong eagerly responded, "I wouldn't dare to give guidance, but I would love to hear yours."

Chu Qingzhi smiled, "Please, Dr. Fang."

Fang Zerong expressed heartfelt gratitude, "Thank you, Miss Chu."
