Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 53
Chapter 053 Her Heart Was in a Mess
Bai Junzhuo raised his eyes and said, “I just checked the pulse of that woman and found that the poison isn’t very strong. Ordinary doctors can completely cure it. Moreover, those doctors have also done some basic treatment for her so that the poison doesn’t spread. They can cure it. Why did they say that they can’t cure it and insist that she come to me?”
Yin Xun couldn’t figure out why, so he turned around and said, “Since I don’t know why those people want to do this for the time being, let’s go to the Medicine Hall first.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly realized that a large group of people had already surrounded him.
Someone whispered, “No wonder a strangely poisonous man kidnapped all the doctors in the city late that night and was unable to cure him. Miss Bai was easily dealt with in the past. So Miss Bai was really the reincarnation of the Holy Maiden.”
“I told you, the Bai Clan can still rise again after suffering a series of unforeseen events. There’s also money to buy Manager Liu’s glass lamp. So it’s because Miss Bai is a Holy Maiden.”
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly explained to the crowd, “I am not a Holy Daughter. My medical skills were taught by my father. You have misunderstood.”
“Miss Bai, you must be the Holy Maiden,” someone said respectfully. “When Empress Xuan Nu was speaking in the temple yesterday, she told everyone that you were the reincarnation of the Holy Maiden. She was also blessed by you to be in the Immortal Class.”
So it was this Mysterious Woman who did this!
But why did she tell others that she wasn’t afraid of stealing her business?
Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, but he also knew that Xuan Nu did not have any good intentions, so he hurriedly explained, “Everyone, I really am not …”
“No matter how you explain it now, it’s useless. It’s better to hurry up and go to the Medicine Hall.” Yin Xun whispered in her ear.
Bai Junzhuo closed his mouth and swept his eyes across the crowd with reverent expressions. He could only nod his head and walk out of the crowd towards the Medicine Hall.
When Bai Jun arrived at the medicine hall, he called Liu Shun and asked, “Shopkeeper Liu, why did you call me here?”
Liu Shundao said, “Third young miss, there is a big business recently, but I don’t know if I should pretend to do it or not.”
Bai Junzhuo raised his eyebrows, “Tell me.”
“It’s Shen Ji Medicine Hall,” Liu Shundao said. “Shen Ji Medicine Hall wants to buy 5,000 jin of red stone resin from us, but our Bai Clan has never cooperated with the Shen Clan. Not long ago, we offended Boss Shen because of Shang Lu. After discussing with the others in the Medicine Hall, I will let Miss decide whether to do business with him or not.”
Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, “Why did he buy so much red stone resin?”
Liu Shun shook his head, and Bai Junzhuo looked at Yin Xun again.
Yin Xun hurriedly waved his hand, “I don’t know such a thing.”
“Aren’t you also the young master of a merchant family? Why do you think Shen Ji did this?”
Seeing Bai Junzhuo ask this, he could only say, “Is it because the weather is getting colder and the typhoid fever is getting more and more, so I’ll buy this medicine first?”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head and said, “Crimson Stone Resin is a kind of hot medicinal stone. Its main function is to stop bleeding. It is mostly used by women to bleed crimson-white, collapse, leak, dystocia and blister-cloth. Its usable surface is extremely narrow. I’m worried that the Crimson Stone Resin the Medicine Hall can’t be sold out, yet he actually wants to buy it in large quantities?”
“Then, does Miss mean not to sell it to him?” Liu Shun asked.
“Sell! Why not?” Bai Junzhuo said, “We’ll sell as much as he wants. There’s no reason why we shouldn’t do business with him. I won’t make a move on this matter. I’ll leave everything to you.”
“Yes, I’ll do it now.”
After Liu Shun left, Bai Junzhuo regained his doubts.
Yin Xun said, “Even though I’ve already planned to sell it to them, you still want to know what they want this batch of medicinal ingredients for?”
Bai Junzhuo nodded, “That’s right. After all, he is a competitor. If he knows about any business opportunities and I don’t, I will lose 80%.”
“Since you want to know, you should investigate yourself. It’s useless to just guess.”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment, then nodded lightly, “You’re right, I’ll investigate now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Junzhuo was about to leave. Yin Xun reached out and grabbed her, asking, “Where did you find out so quickly?”
Bai Junzhuo nodded. “He just invited Lord Cha and Lord Ma to dinner last night. He came here today to buy medicinal stones. I think there must be some connection between them. I can ask Lord Cha.”
Yin Xun teased, “That person has indiscriminate thoughts about you. It’s getting late now. Why don’t you go to his mansion and find him? Aren’t you afraid that he will lose his manners towards you?”
“Have you ever seen him treat me disrespectfully in the Bai Manor today? Lord Cha is a gentleman, so he won’t do anything to me.” After saying that, Bai Junzhuo lowered his head and looked at Yin Xun’s hand on her wrist. “Young Master Yin, isn’t this a bit rude?”
Yin Xun did not immediately remove his hand. Instead, he chuckled and said, “You are not an ordinary woman to me.”
Bai Junzhuo’s ears immediately turned red. The man in front of him seemed to have a natural aura. His eyes were clear, and his elegant expression made her heart beat faster inexplicably.
“You, what do you mean?” Bai Junzhuo asked in a panicked tone.
“I mean,” he whispered in her ear, breathing softly to her side, “I’m your master, and I’ll do whatever I like to you.”
A basin of cold water was poured down, and Bai Junzhuo calmed down. He broke free from his restraints and raised his hand to slap his face. Of course, he was easily dodged by the other party.
Bai Junzhuo almost cursed, but considering that the medicine hall was a public place, she endured it.
“One day, I will neutralize the poison on your body and don’t have anything to do with you anymore!”
However, Yin Xun only smiled slightly, his eyes filled with an inexplicable meaning. “Then Miss Bai, it’s better to hurry up, lest the days go by and you discover that Master is my good friend, so you are reluctant to leave.”
She looked straight at him, feeling a gentle warmth in his eyes, slowly pouring into her heart.
Apart from being affectionate, righteous, and loving, Yin Xun also had money, looks, and emotional intelligence. It would be too difficult to not be tempted by such a man! She had always been interested in people or things that she did not understand, and with each passing moment, her heart fell even faster.
She tried her best to move her gaze away and said coldly, “How shameless!”
Yin Xun was tagged as shameless for no reason, and he wasn’t angry. “Let’s go, I’ll accompany you to investigate this matter.”
“Don’t follow me!” Bai Junzhuo angrily rejected him. If this continued, he would really fall. If he fell in love with his children, how could he fulfill his dream of becoming a wealthy woman in ancient times?
Without waiting for Yin Xun to react, Bai Jun left without turning his head.
Yin Xun looked at Bai Junzhuo’s fleeing back and chuckled. Finally, he slowly followed.
As soon as he left the Medicine Hall, he saw Lu Kang, who was shaking his fan and coming towards him.
Yin Xun glanced at Lu Kang and said, “Are you well?”
Lu Kang always smiled and nodded, “Yes, so this subordinate came to help Master on his own initiative.”
Yin Xun looked around. He had long since lost sight of Bai Junzhuo’s figure, and he felt a little helpless in his heart.
Although he didn’t show it at all, Lu Kang seemed to be able to guess, “Master, don’t worry. Miss Bai has Shen Qing secretly following her.”
Yin Xun coldly glanced at him and said, “Nothing.”
‘”Many things are my greatest strengths,” Lu Kang said proudly. “Master always has things that I can’t notice, and the purpose of my existence is to find out these things for Master and remove these worries for him.”
“What did you find this time?”
“Two things. First, the White Manor still has a Second Miss who hasn’t returned for a long time. This subordinate found out that she was kidnapped. The purpose is to get that kind of thing before Master.”
Yin Xun held his chin and thought for a moment before asking, “Is it someone she sent?”
“It should be.” Lu Kang nodded and continued, “Therefore, master must be extremely careful. Although you are far away in Luoyang, that person’s spies are everywhere.”
After a moment of silence, Yin Xun asked, “What else?”
“Second, do you still remember the Cold Food Powder that became popular in Xuchang City three years ago and was strictly forbidden by His Majesty?”
Yin Xun nodded and said, “I remember.”
“That thing caused a mess in Xuchang within a short year. His Majesty had thoroughly investigated it and finally discovered that it was the young heir of Lord Fu’s family. For some reason, His Majesty only ordered that it be forbidden to be used again, but did not punish the heir of the Fu family.”
Yin Xun raised his eyebrows and looked at him, “Why did you bring up the matter at that time?”
Lu Kang said, “Master, please follow me to a place.”

Bai Junzhuo went all the way to the Cha Jin Mansion. Cha Jin Zhi was a governor and his official was not small, but this courtyard was really deserted.
She went to call the door and a servant came out. Bai Junzhuo said to him, “Maiden Bai Junzhuo wants to see Lord Cha, please inform him.”
The servant went in to pass on the message. Not long after, Cha Jinzhi personally welcomed him out. His eyes were filled with joy, “Miss Bai, why are you here? Come in quickly.”
Bai Junzhuo was a little embarrassed by his enthusiasm and followed him in.
The mansion was also very quiet. There were very few servants. The two of them walked through a corridor and sat down in a pavilion. Cha Jinzhi ordered people to prepare tea.
Bai Jun was uneasy and hurriedly said, “There’s no need for tea. I’ll be leaving in a moment.”
Cha Jinzhi smiled and said, “Miss Bai, there’s no need to be nervous. This is only the basic way to treat guests.”
Bai Junzhuo became more and more uneasy and hurriedly said, “Lord Cha, I am here to ask you something.”
Cha Jinzhi nodded, “Miss Bai, there’s no harm in saying that.”
“What did Lord say last night when he was with Lord Ma and Boss Shen of Shen Ji Medicine Hall?”
Cha Jinzhi was puzzled.
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly explained, “I only asked this because I thought that Lord Cha was poisoned last night, and it seems to be related to my eldest sister, so I want to understand.”
Cha Jinzhi looked at Bai Junzhuo with emotion. It turned out that she was doing it for him.
He recalled what happened last night and scratched his head. “It seems that he wants to make some medicine, and Lord Ma is also interested in it, so the two of them hit it off. But I don’t know anything about pharmacology, so I didn’t agree with him.”
