Transmigration? A scheming fifth sister? A weak and a coward eldest daughter? Cultivation, power, and imperial family? Oh come on, she only have a quarter of Chinese blood so why the hell she was in a Chinese novel-like era?
Never mind, she'll just...
"So can you cure me?" Feng Zhengying was hoping that this lass could help him. He had been living in the dark for 5 years.
He was only 16 when he fell in his last battle. After defending the border for 6 years, no one even paid attention to him, that's why he created a faction in the dark to do a lot of things for convenience.
If this lass could cure him, he would owe her a huge debt for his whole life.
"Yes, this Lady can cure you in two weeks. You're too lucky since you managed to look for my help earlier. Because after 2 years, we would need many years before this Lady could cure you," Zexel explained.
"So what should Benwang do? And when will we start?" Feng Zhengying asked.
"We can start now. You just need to lay your body facing the bed," Zexel helped Feng Zhengying to lay his body on the bed.
She positioned him in the most comfortable way she knew before she brought out her newly made needles.
Zexel skillfully placed all the needles she needed so that half of the poison would be released.
"How did Benwang get poisoned? Even the godly doctor Liu Bai did not manage to detect it," Feng Zhengying asked her while she was in the middle of the session.
"This kind of poison is really hard to detect. But this Lady used a special method, so this Lady managed to detect it. After this session, this Lady needs to go back to my restaurant since my servants are under training. This Lady will come back here every night since this Lady has a lot of things to do every day," she explained while releasing water power in her hand to flow into each needle.
After a minute, the water turned black as she put it in a big jar. Then she carefully took out every needle and used her fire power to cleanse the needles for disinfecting before she brought them back to her needle holder.
"Done. This Lady already released half of your poison. Since your cultivation is low, your body will not handle the second session today. Even if you are lying in that bed, your body will feel exhaustion after just a minute. For now, rest, then after two hours, you need to take a bath with warm water. This Lady will let your subordinate buy herbs for your daily tonic and this Lady will teach him how to do it," Zexel explained.
Zexel didn’t know why she was easily persuaded by this guy in front of her, but she didn’t want to think about it since she was too lazy.
Feng Zhengying began to feel the exhaustion, so he just changed his position and rested for a while.
"Do you have a female subordinate? It would be much more convenient if your female subordinate handles this task," she added.
"Mo Er!" Feng Zhengying just called someone, and a female in a black robe appeared in front of her. Zexel just stared at the girl and raised her eyebrow.
"Uhm, Your Highness, are you sure that she’s a female? She looks like a male," Zexel said confusedly.
The other four subordinates of Feng Zhengying almost laughed because of what Zexel said.
"Anyways, since you are the person that His Highness called, this Lady is pretty sure that you are really a girl," she added.
Mo Er sighed and bowed slightly to Zexel.
"Here, purchase these herbs. Make sure that each of them will last long for 2 weeks," she said and gave the prescription to Mo Er.
After Mo Er accepted the paper, she immediately vanished from Zexel's sight.
While waiting, she brought out a candle and lit a fire in it. Then she opened her needle holder and disinfected it for the second time.
"Thank you..." a low voice of Feng Zhengying said.
Zexel stopped what she was doing and stared at Feng Zhengying. She stared at him confusedly.
"Thank you for what?" she asked curiously.
"For giving this Prince hope that Benwang can walk again. Benwang almost gave up hope after trying many times to be cured. So thank you so much. Benwang will owe you for the rest of his life," Feng Zhengying’s subordinates were shocked because it was the first time they heard their Master thanking someone and opening up to someone.
Perhaps, Zexel was a miracle to them, and they were all happy that their Master was not cold right now. They could see a gentleness in their Master's eyes which was new to them.
"Don't thank me, it’s really not a big deal. By the way, can this Lady take home this liquid poison that this Lady got from your body? This Lady will study the prescription of this kind of poison," Zexel said while letting Feng Zhengying see the jar of black liquid.
"How did that liquid poison come out of Benwang's body without wetting Benwang's clothes?" Feng Zhengying asked.
"Well, this Lady used the needle as a channel so that the liquid would not wet your clothes," Zexel said. Feng Zhengying just nodded and continued to rest.
After a while, Mo Er appeared again in Zexel’s sight with a large bag of herbs on her back. Zexel ordered another subordinate of Feng Zhengying to get a large box container for the herbs.
After a second, she got it, and she put the herbs according to the order of the tonic. She taught Mo Er how to make the tonic and let her give it to Feng Zhengying.
Without hesitation, Feng Zhengying drank the tonic that Mo Er and Zexel prepared. And in just a minute, he could already feel the effects of the tonic. It was warm and really good to his feeling.
"This Lady will be back tomorrow. Please drive me to my restaurant," she smiled before she left, making Feng Zhengying’s heart fall into chaos.
