Chapter 389: Chapter 390 Making Detoxification Pills

Shao He sat in the chair, lost in thought, wondering how Pei Huaian was doing and if he was safe.

When Qingxia came in, she saw the dim-eyed figure and thought the young lady was saddened by Eldest Princess Huimin’s words. She stepped forward to comfort her, "Miss, you needn’t take the princess’s words to heart; the man you’re going to marry is the Fifth Prince, not someone from the Eldest Princess’s Mansion."

"I need to see Ah Mo; ask him to come over when he has time," Shao He urgently wanted to know where exactly Pei Huaian had gone and if he was safe.

Had she known that he was going to suppress bandits, she would not have had a falling out with him and turned him away. She would have prepared more medicine for him to carry with him.

"Miss, right now?" Qingxia did not know why the young lady suddenly wanted to see Ah Mo and why it was so urgent.

"Yes, I want to see him now."

"This servant will go and arrange it immediately," Qingxia didn’t ask further and went to light fireworks in the yard.

Shao He saw the dazzling fireworks in the sky and got up, "Is this a flare?"

"No, this is a method of contact between the Hidden Guards. Although my sister and I are no longer the Hidden Guards for the Fifth Prince, since the young master was injured last time, His Highness has again entrusted this item to me and my sister. Just by igniting this, Ah Mo will come right away."

As soon as Qingxia finished speaking, an urgent knock came from the door. Qingxia opened it to see an anxious Ah Mo asking, "Where is Doctor Shao? Is he alright?"

"The miss has something to ask you."

Ah Mo finally sighed with relief, as long as the person was alright.

He lifted his foot and followed Qingxia into the courtyard, where he saw the figure standing there looking at the bright moon and bowed, "Doctor Shao, what are your orders?"

"What assignment has your master taken on?"

"This, subordinates..."

"Don’t tell me you don’t know. You’re his most trusted subordinate. I don’t believe you’re unaware of the assignment he’s taken. Speak up?" Shao He turned around, her tone sharp.

"Yes!" Ah Mo gritted his teeth and lowered his head, "The prince has been dispatched to the border to eliminate the mountain bandits."

Shao He scoffed with a cold laugh. Eldest Princess Huimin did not deceive her; Pei Huaian indeed went to the border to fight the bandits.

"How many soldiers and horses do the bandits have?"

"According to intelligence, this group of bandits is strong, with a full twenty thousand men, and moreover, the area they occupy is surrounded by miasma."

"So-called ’miasma’ is actually a poison fog, correct?"

"Indeed, but the toxicity there is very strong, and it’s easy to lose one’s life if one is not careful."

"Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"Subordinate has of course witnessed it."

"Since you’ve experienced it, how could your lord still dare to go?"

"This..." Ah Mo was at a loss for words. No one facing such a situation would choose to go, yet his master did, and moreover, he had personally volunteered to go.

Shao He sighed and turned back into the room, "Don’t reveal a word of this matter to anyone."

"Doctor Shao, rest assured, the prince has ordered that nothing should be divulged," Ah Mo promised with conviction.

Shao He hummed lightly, "Go on with your duties."

Shao He didn’t sleep all night; her mind was filled with thoughts of the common folk at the border. She believed that he would definitely return safely.

The next day, Shao He woke up particularly early, glanced out the window at the just-risen sun, stretched, and got up. After breakfast,

Shao He went to Anji Hall and after discussing with Yun Qian, decided to formulate some Detoxification Pills to give to Ah Mo to pass on to Pei Huaian.

"I agree," Yun Qian didn’t hesitate a bit.

Before Shao He began formulating the Detoxification Pills, she first went to the room next to the operating room, where she saw the girl who had awakened and inquired, then after confirming there were no symptoms, gave a box of ointment to the man.

"This is an ointment for scars. Although it can’t completely remove them, it will lighten them," she said.

"Thank you, Doctor, thank you," the man took the ointment, expressing his immense gratitude.

"Take care of the wound, don’t let it get infected, and eat more bland food. Don’t eat eggs, fish, and peppers," she instructed.

"Alright."

Shao He turned to make the Detoxification Pills, and after a busy morning, she finally succeeded.

Just as she was about to share the good news with Yun Qian, a sudden argument erupted outside.

"Who said you could bring her here for treatment over such a trivial wound? What’s there to make such a fuss about?"

"You’re just wasting my family’s money, even though we’re wealthy, we can’t withstand such squandering," a sharp, critical voice said.

The voice caught Shao He’s attention, and she followed it,

only to see that the people who were supposed to leave were still there, with another woman having joined them.

"Xiaoli’s wound is severe, and the bleeding won’t stop; I was worried something might happen to her, so I brought her to see the doctor," the man explained timidly.

Seemingly fearful of the woman before him, this intrigued Shao He somewhat.

Upon hearing more, Shao He finally understood: the man was a live-in son-in-law, hence his timidity.

"A problem? What problem could there be? She’s just a servant girl; what does it matter if something happens?" the woman said carelessly.

Yuebei stepped forward to intervene but was cursed out by the woman, who also accused them of colluding with the man to swindle her family’s money.

"I’m curious, is your family the richest in the Capital, or do you have a treasury?"

"Also, don’t forget you’re a woman yourself, someone else’s daughter; leave some decency in your words," Shao He could no longer stand by and listen, so she stepped out to reprimand the woman.
