“Haha, didn't I specially go buy, knowing that you like them?” That person said.
“Don't know what kind of person is the one planting these grapes, only selling this little every year. The cravings are
killing me!” Bai Ning Yuan had the grape skin spat out into the water below the pavilion and then bit into another
grape, “What did you call me here for today? Just say it, seeing on behalf of these grapes, I perhaps will agree.”
“I heard you developed another kind of poison called fire and ice, don't know if you can give me a little?” That
person said.
“Fire and ice?” Bai Ning Yuan thought for a moment. Then, from his breast pocket he took out a small paper pouch
and threw it to the other party, “Previously, I gave a little to someone else. Now, there's only this bit left!”
The man opened the paper pouch and saw the mere fingertip sized pile of fine dust inside, “Just this bit?”
“Che—–this bit? With just this bit, it's more than enough to have all the people of your Four Sea Manor entirely
poisoned to death! Seventh Master Luo, don't underestimate my poison. That ending isn't just empty words.” Bai
Ning Yuan said with a vague smile

“No way, how could I dare underestimate the poison king's poison?” Seventh Master Luo saw Bai Ning Yuan get
angry and hurriedly said with an apologetic smile.
Bai Ning Yuan had the last two grapes finished off and regretfully said, “Sigh, gone again.”
“If brother Ning Yuan likes these grapes, why not go to a place where grapes are planted to eat your fill?” Seventh
Master Luo said.
“Hasn't the season for grapes already passed right now? Right now, this is probably the last batch. Sigh, boring.”
Without grapes to eat, Bai Ning Yuan's mood instantly soured. He stretched his hand out of the pavilion and slit a
drop of blood into the pond below. Very soon, the koi fish in the pond all overturned and died.
Seeing Bai Ning Yuan's action, Seventh Master Luo's his mouth twitched, but didn't say anything either, and instead

had the topic diverted to something he was interested in.
“I heard, in the north right now, there's still grapes.”
“Really?” Bai Ning Yuan instantly became excited.
“I heard, in the outskirts of the capital, there's a fruit orchard, and inside grew a large patch of grapes. However,
right now, it should also be nearing the end of the season. If brother Ning Yuan rushes over right now, perhaps you
can still make it.” Seventh Master Luo said.
(T/N: Well looks like this poison king is gonna be enslave—-I mean a free laborer soon.)
“There's actually such a place! Hahah, then I'll be going first!” With that said, Bai Ning Yuan's figure flashed and
disappeared from the pavilion.
Seventh Master Luo came to the window side where Bai Ning Yuan was just sitting, looked to the pond full of dead
fish, then looked again to the poison in his own hand, and coldly smiled.
Inside the government inn of the capital city.
Du Xiao Li had Lu Jun Qi pricked full of needles, forcing large amounts of the toxins into her hands, and then used
a dagger to have her five fingertips cut open. The black colored blood thus flowed out along her fingertips, dripping
into the basin below.
In the past, she also used a similar method to force the poison out of Han Ming Yi. However, because this poison
was more potent than the one Han Ming Yi was poisoned with that time, even if this much was forced out, Lu Jun
Qi still remained unconscious.
Following the toxic blood's discharge, the crimson and purple colors on Lu Jun Qi's body also slowly faded away,
but the dark purple color on her lips didn't show any signs of fading. At this, Du Xiao Li didn't panic either. Once
enough toxic blood was discharged, she slowly had the needles on her body slowly removed, then inserted a few

more needles on Lu Jun Qi's body. Lu Jun Qi's tightly creased brows relaxed a little.

“Put on clothes for your princess.” After Du Xiao Li had the all needles retrieved, she turned to Yue Yin and said.
(T/N: I pronounced the servant girl's name wrong in the last chapter, but I fixed it now. The first part of her name
[乐] can be pronounced as either Yue or Le, but in this case it's supposed to be pronounced Yue. Her name Yue Yin
means musical note.)
Yue Yin had been completely stupefied by Du Xiao Li's skills. Hearing her words, she quickly went forward to dress
Lu Jun Qi. After Lu Jun Qi was dressed, Du Xiao Li let her called in the people guarding outside, while she herself
sat down on the chair to the side to rest.
Hearing that Du Xiao Li had already finished, Han Ming Ze rushed in, with a few people following behind him. Du
Xiao Li glanced over. Of the imperial physicians, there were only Niu Jing and Imperial Physician Hu. Those old
wangyes and marquises were also gone, presumably having returned already. However, her own old man was still
present.
“Didn't I tell you not to tire yourself out this much?” Han Ming Yi came to Du Xiao Li's side, and reached his hand
out, massaging her temples.
“This fire and ice poison is much stronger than the poison in your body years ago. Thus, when applying the needles,
I poured in some inner energy. That's why I'm feeling tired. I'll be fine after resting for a while.” Du Xiao Li brought
his hands down. Right now, Han Ming Ze and them were all present. Letting him massage her, this was a bit
inappropriate.
The changes on Lu Jun Qi's body greatly shocked everyone that entered. What her body looked like previously,
they'd all seen. Never thought that with Du Xiao Li's help, it would improve this much!
Imperial Physician Hu hurriedly went forward to take Lu Jun Qi's pulse, and then looked up in surprise. He got up
and cupped his hand towards Han Ming Ze, “Your Majesty, this Miss Du's medical skills are indeed impressive.
Right now, the third princess's pulse, although still very weak, it has already stabilized. The poison in the body has
also reduced by more than a half, and the remaining poison inside has also been suppressed. Surely, it'll be no
problem to hold out for ten some days. Miss Du's medical skills this humble official truly admires!
When Han Ming Ze heard Imperial Physician Hu's words, he heavily sighed in relief inside. “That's good. In the
next few days, you just stay here. If there's anything she needs, just coordinate with her as much as possible.”
“This humble official understands.”
Han Ming Hong, who was behind Han Ming Ze, also had his attention placed on Du Xiao Li as soon as he entered,
seeing the interaction between her and Han Ming Yi. And upon hearing Imperial Physician Hu's words, a sheet of
ice flashed across his eyes, and his two hands also clenched into fists.

“Prime Minister Du, this daughter of yours, the shock she gives people every time is always this big, letting one
have to digest for quiet a while.” Seeing Lu Jun Qi's situation stabilized, Han Ming Ze's mood improved quite a bit
and began joking with Du Yun Han.
“This humble official was also quite shocked.” Du Yun Han just spoke the truth. This daughter of his really has
given him too many surprises!
“Du Xiao Li.” Han Ming Ze called out.
“This subject is here.” Du Xiao Li got up and replied.
“Right now, this emperor will assign you as the female imperial physician of the Imperial Physician's Court. Give
your all in treating the third princess.” Han Ming Ze said.
“This subject accepts the decree.” Du Xiao Li curtsied.
“Imperial Physician Du, now, you can't address yourself as this subject anymore. You have to say this official.” To
the side, Eunuch Shan reminded.
“This humble official accepts the decree!” Du Xiao Li curtsied towards Han Ming Ze and then gratefully smiled at
Eunuch Shan.
Han Ming Ze smiled and said, “Alright, leaving this place to the three of you. You must have the third princess
cured. Any medicinal ingredients you need, just come to the palace to get!”
“This humble official accepts the decree.” Du Xiao Li, Niu Jing, and Imperial Physician Hu replied in unison.
“Ming Yi, let's go back, have the things you investigated today reported.”
“Yes.” Han Ming Yi said.
“You all come along too.” With that said, Han Ming Ze turned and left.
Han Ming Yi and Du Yun Han prepared to follow after, but Han Ming Hong still stood in his original spot, staring at
Du Xiao Li. His eyes filled with regret. This girl that was emitting confidence, this girl that could sing and dance,
and also understood medical skills, was once his fiancee, yet was missed by him. Just exactly for what reason
blinded his eyes?
At this very moment, in his eyes and heart was completely filled with Du Xiao Li's shadow. Du Ke Xin was
virtually shoved into an unknown corner.
Du Xiao Li knew Han Ming Hong was staring at her the whole time. A trace of disgust flashed across her eyes. She
directly went to the bedside to pretend to examine Lu Jun Qi's body, leaving for him an ice-cold back.

“Ren Wang, please.” Du Yun Han understood his daughter, knowing that she certainly must be unhappy. He came to
Han Ming Hong's side and made a gesture for him to go ahead.
Han Ming Hong looked to Du Yun Han, then turned and left the room.
