Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Even though they were considered rich young ladies now, Ms. Tian’s gifts, like those from their master, carried with them sentimental values.

In Ms. Tian’s eyes, these two girls were confident and natural. Baiji, though gentle and reserved, Ms. Tian could see from Baiji’s eyes that she was very intelligent and she was always at Lin Mengya’s side, serving her. As for the gentle Baishao, she was very pretty, outgoing and lively. Nevertheless, she was respectful of her master and was humble when dealing with others.

Not to mention others, Ms. Tian could see that the prince’s mansion was very different from other families simply from the way these two maidservants had been trained.

“Nanny is showing partiality. Both the master and I had been taken care of by you since young. Why did you only give the two big sisters the gifts and not give anything to me? I’m not happy that you’re showing favoritism.”

Baizhi complained jokingly, pretending to be upset. As a result, everyone in the house was amused and burst out laughing at her coquetry.

They were behaving like they were a family and immediately, the initial awkwardness and barrier disappeared.

Baiji and Baishao were currently managing many things in the mansion. Through their guidance, Ms. Tian had been introduced to the persons in charge of different areas in the mansion. At the same time, Ms. Tian had prepared red packets as gifts to all of them. The money Lin Mengya stuffed into Ms. Tian’s hands was quickly used up.

At the thought, Lin Mengya felt a warmth wash over her heart.

Ms. Tian might not be her birth mother, it was obvious that she was doing every little thing with Lin Mengya in mind.

She believed her mother in heaven would be comforted knowing this.

“Have you found out any information about the matter I entrusted you?” asked Lin Mengya with a lethargic tone as if she already knew the answer.

Lin Mengya was resting on the chaise longue, holding a book in her hands as she inquired casually.

Baizhi, who just returned from gathering information outside, was wearing an angry expression on her face. She would not have let the laundry woman who spouted nonsense off if her master had not forbidden her from getting into conflicts with people in the mansion.

“Tell me what you’ve heard that made you so infuriated. It seemed that the rumor you heard was exciting and dramatic.”

Lin Mengya was still smiling as if she was completely perturbed by what was happening.

Baizhi, on the other hand, seemed so indignant that she looked as if she was going to charge that person and bite into her.

“What do they know? It was obvious that the imperial guards were trying to ensnare master. However, from what they were saying, you were misbehaving around the imperial guards! What misbehavior? If Master and I had not retaliated, we would have been bullied. It was obvious that they were colluding with the imperial guards. They were spouting nonsense without knowing the truth. Sooner or later, I will have Elder Sister Baishao tear off their mouth.”

Lin Mengya was not provoked at all. Since Baizhi knew all these pieces of information, it showed that those people were purposely trying to spread the rumor in the mansion.

Their intention was for this princess to be shamed. They would make her look like a woman who lacked female virtues.

If everything went according to their plans, the princess would be troubled by the rumors from now on. Thereafter, the prince would forsake this unfaithful wife and divorce her. Subsequently, she would be so ashamed that she would take her own life.

This would certainly be the storyline of the 8 p.m. drama.

However, to Long Tianyu and her, the destructive power of these rumors was insignificant.

Did they think they could ambush and hurt her just by doing so? That would be so funny.

“As the saying goes that rumors would stop when they reach a wise person. The rumor will die down sooner or later.”

Lin Mengya flipped over a page of her book and the expression on her face was that of calm and coolness.

However, in her heart, she was pondering carefully over her gain and loss after her fight with Baili Wuchen.

Having seen from their own eyes how Long Tianyu was more skillful and had the upper hand in the fight, the imperial guards would not dare to make things difficult for her in the future.

Looking at this long term, That the Tiger Token from the Emperor was in Long Tianyu’s hands was like a heavy-duty bomb to the Crown Prince.

Every party knew that their trump card was more powerful than what it appeared to be on the surface.

At present, the emperor was still bedridden. She and Long Tianyu had to be vigilant in whatever they did at least until the emperor recovered fully.

If the Crown Prince was forced to a corner, they could never tell what that mad dog would resort to doing.

She had to be prepared early lest anything unexpected should happen.

Baizhi was sent out by her again. She, being witty and sharp, would scrutinize the area around the house so there would be no room for any spies to spy on them.

Lin Mengya took out the fabric pouch from her clothes and studied it closely.

How did Mother manage to do this? How was the metal box kept airtight underwater for so many years?

Not only was the pouch in a tip-top condition, but it had not even lost its stretchiness.

Lin Mengya turned it over and untied the string on it.

In that instant, she smelt a fragrant smell that invigorated her.

This was...

Lin Mengya opened her eyes wide from surprise. This was unmistakably the smell of Tranquil Lotus!

Moreover, its intensity was more than double that which Qiu Yu provided.

Lin Mengya slowly and cautiously put the pouch down on the table and opened it little by little, lest she should miss any of its contents.

The content of the pouch was gradually revealed before her eyes.

There was a thin book, a golden fork and a stalk of dried plant. That was all.

Lin Mengya looked at the stalk of herb, overjoyed. It was indeed a stalk of dried Tranquil Lotus. Usually, Tranquil Lotus would lose a great deal of its fragrance and medicinal effect after it was wind-dried.

She had no idea what method was used to preserve it so well in this little fabric pouch.

Amazingly, it appeared even more well-preserved than what Qiu Yu offered Lin Mengya.

On top of that, there was a delicate and expensive-looking golden fork beside the Tranquil Lotus stalk.

Lin Mengya carefully picked it up and saw that it was a hairpin in the form of a phoenix, decorated with precious stones of different colors.

As Lin Mengya held it in her hand and studied it, she realized there seemed to be one precious stone missing from the phoenix’s eyes.

The phoenix, surrounded by golden wires, appeared to have come alive and ready to take flight. Lin Mengya found it intriguing because only ladies from the royal family were worthy of hairpins in the form of a phoenix.

Moreover, while this hairpin differed slightly from the hairpins worn by the queen and Concubine De, it was comparable to the golden phoenix on the queen’s phoenix crown.

Lin Mengya’s curiosity was aroused a little. If this hairpin belonged to her mother, what kind of person exactly was her mother?

However, regardless of how beautiful the golden hairpin was, the thin medical book was what attracted her most.

Inscribed on the green cover of the book were the characters “Music Score for the Green Stringed Instrument”, apparently written with great strength.

What was going on? Could this book be just a music score?

Lin Mengya opened the music score for the green stringed instrument with great care. To her surprise, her brain froze when she saw the first page.

What on earth was this?!

The pages which had turned yellow seemed to be covered with layers of inscriptions. It took a great effort for her to make out some of the characters. Even so, there were places on the page that were just blots of ink.

“Sigh... What on earth is this?!”

Lin Mengya felt as if she had been deceived at that moment. What music score for the green stringed instrument was? It looked more like a book with pages full of a child’s scribbles.

She rubbed her temples and laughed bitterly as she stared at the pages of the so-called music score. Good heavens, the heavens ought to be playing a joke on her.

Just when hopelessness set in, the Shen Nung system which constantly scanned all information Lin Mengya was exposed to, caused Lin Mengya to make a new discovery.

Fearful that she might miss any clue, Lin Mengya had begun to scan in the information the moment she flipped through the book.

It should be noted that relics from the ancestors were very refined. This was especially true for valuable items such as this. Maybe there would be some kind of mechanism which would have the book burnt after it had been read.

However, it was only thirty seconds after the Sheng Nung system had started scanning the book it sent out the message that it finished scanning the first page.

Thirty seconds? What did this mean?

Based on the scanning speed of the Shen Nung system, theoretically, it should be able to complete scanning a Compendium of Materia Medica into the system in thirty seconds.

This was obviously a very thin book consisting ten over pages, why then did it take thirty seconds for the system to scan through it?

Could there be a problem with the system? Could it have contracted some viruses? Was this going to affect her brain? Would this turn her into a dimwit?

A series of questions started attacking Lin Mengya’s brain in a flash.

Nevertheless, Lin Mengya picked up the result of the scan quietly. Immediately, Lin Mengya was awe-struck by what had appeared in her brain.

The reason being that what was displayed on her retina was a 3D picture.

The system which had just completed scanning that one page had automatically delaminated it into layers. Through its operation, those characters had been separated into 500 pages of information!

Good heavens! What on earth was this?

Perplexed, Lin Mengya browsed through it quickly and realized that she could just barely understand the content of the first page.

Apparently, it was talking about the human meridian. However, she became lost towards the end of the page.

After all, she had not come into contact with such traditional medical books for a long enough time.

If her teacher was still clear-minded, she could perhaps ask her teacher about this. At present, she had found such an enormous treasure, but she was like an ant, digesting only an insignificant amount of information.

There were altogether fifteen pages to the book and each page consisted of an independent faculty.

At the same time, the book was in fact made up of 15 books. Each of the books benefited Lin Mengya greatly.

It was all thanks to the Shen Nung system’s help. Otherwise, she would have missed this unique medical guide.

However, as she looked at the pages of the book, which appeared to be stained with blots of ink, she would never have expected that it was for the purpose of anti-piracy.

The ability to be compress layers of ink was near impossible even in modern days.

How on earth did the ancient people manage to do this?

Feeling assured, Lin Mengya put the Music Score for the Green Stringed Instrument into a small secret box by her bedside. She had found out from the book that the stalk of Tranquil Lotus could be directed added to a prescription.

It would take at least five months to manufacture such medication. If not for this readily-prepared stalk, she would be a bundle of nerves now.
