Chapter 204 - Antidote (1/2)

Although he was very curious, he couldn't ask about it since Princess Consort Guang Pingwang had tried her best to hide it from him.

Elder She had no idea that Su Yan was just frightened by his bad temper just now.

Su Yan placed the medicinal herbs that she had brought back in front of Old Ma and said in a bad mood, ”You stole his medicinal herbs so you didn't dare to take them.”

Old Ma smiled mischievously. He didn't feel shame for being caught. He said, ”Medicinal herbs are meant to be used. These medicinal herbs are used to save the people of the country. Isn't it worth it? That imperial physician is too stingy.”

Su Yan shook her head and ignored his unreasonable arguments. She was about to leave but she was held back.

Old Ma said mysteriously, ”Princess Consort, you should stay for a while. I still have one more thing to ask for your help.”

Su Yan asked back, ”Who else have you offended?”

Old Ma shook his head and did not say anything else. He continued to do what he was doing.

His movements were very fast. He continued to distribute the various medicinal ingredients in different order and portions. After that, it was the boring time of boiling the medicine.

When the medicine was ready, Old Ma directly tested the medicine with his own body. Su Yan asked in shock, ”What are you doing?”

He was not even sure if the antidote would do any harm to a normal person. How could he just drink it?

Old Ma took a sip and wiped his mouth. ”After all, someone has to test the medicine first.”

At this moment, the old man's image in her heart changed.

After Old Ma finished drinking, he muttered, ”There's still something wrong.”

Su Yan asked, ”Isn't this brewed according to the formula?”

Old Ma looked at the prescription and said, ”This prescription must have been extracted from ancient books. There's still some difference in the current situation.”

His sorrowful voice changed and returned to his previous wretched self. He said, ”So we'll need the help of Princess Consort.”

Su Yan felt that this personality was what she was familiar with and said, ”Go ahead.”
