Ji Yucang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her with a little surprise: "Have you studied medical skills?"

"I used to stay at home and have nothing to do. I would read medical books." Shen Ning lowered his eyes and looked at the black pills in the brocade box. "This antidote contains addictive ingredients, but the dose is not large and it is not easy for people to be addicted." Be aware that if you take it more than six to eight times, you will never be able to escape the control of this drug."

"Can you understand the ingredients of medicinal materials by reading medical books?" Ji Yucang smiled, "You are quite talented."

Shen Ning said nothing, she also thought this explanation was ridiculous.

It is obviously impossible for a noble lady from an aristocratic family to stay at home and read medical books for a few days to identify the ingredients in the antidote.

But other than that, she had no better explanation.

Fortunately, Ji Yucang did not continue to ask further, and just said: "The poison I was poisoned will not be fatal within two years, but if there is no antidote after two years, it will probably be a dead end."

"No. I can make an antidote for you." Shen Ning shook her head, "You are so kind to me, I am willing to do something for you."

Ji Yucang came over and raised his hand to rub her face: "Can you stop talking about our relationship like a transaction?"

Shen Ning frowned, what is it if it's not a transaction?

Repay kindness with kindness and revenge with hatred.

No one in this world should be nice to others as a matter of course, and even relatives can’t be relied on. Why should we expect a man who has no blood relationship at all?

"If you can make an antidote, just do it." Ji Yucang sighed, "If you need any medicinal materials, you can buy them. If you need money, just go to the accounting office to get it."

"Um."

Ji Yucang asked: "The Queen Mother didn't embarrass you?"

Shen Ning shook her head: "She can't embarrass me."

Just as Ji Yucang was about to say something, the familiar cramping pain swept over him again. He suddenly grabbed the bedpost, and blue veins appeared on the back of his white hands.

Shen Ning frowned and stared at his pain, reaching out to grab his arm: "How long will you continue to be in pain?"

Ji Yucang gritted his teeth: "You go out first."

"How long will it hurt?"

"This is the first day." Ji Yucang's face turned pale, and his voice came out from between his teeth, "You... you go out first."

Shen Ning put down the antidote, turned around and walked out, opening the door: "Ling Feng."

"princess."

"Can you find me a set of silver needles used by doctors as soon as possible?"

Ling Feng was startled: "Princess?"

Shen Ning was impatient: "Can you?"

"Yes." Ling Feng turned around and flew away.

Shen Ning had nothing in her hands and couldn't do anything to help her. She could only stand in front of the door and wait.

The gasps that were suppressed in the room leaked out a bit of pain. This is a man with an incredibly strong will. When the poison takes effect, he can endure the pain that is comparable to Lingchi's torture. In the most painful and painful tortures, Seeing the antidote close at hand but not taking it, he saved up twelve antidote pills.

At this moment, Shen Ning's admiration for Ji Yucang had nothing to do with any identity, status or relationship. She only had respect for this man.

Any proud man is worthy of admiration.

Ling Feng quickly came back, bringing not only a set of silver needles, but also a dagger and a jar of spirits.

Shen Ning was satisfied with his attentiveness, but the dagger was not needed.

She took the silver needle without asking him where he got it from. She turned around and walked into the inner hall. Looking at Ji Yucang who was almost curled up in a ball, she raised her hand and lifted him up and threw him on the bed.

The seven-foot-tall man, the noble regent, the god of war who was decisive and ruthless in killing on the battlefield, was now being carried and thrown on the bed by Shen Ning like a weak chicken.

She took a bowl and poured out a bowl of strong liquor.

He passed the silver needle through the liquor, and then raised his hand to untie Ji Yucang's clothes. In just a short time, Ji Yucang's robe was already soaked through, and the cold sweat on his forehead made his hair wet. Really...

Shen Ning felt soft for a moment, and even felt a rare pity.

She quickly shook her head to brush away the terrible mood swings, and stripped Ji Yucang naked, leaving only a pair of obscene pants.

The silver needle that had passed through the liquor found the acupuncture point he wanted and inserted it accurately, followed by the second, third, and fourth...

The pain on Ji Yucang's face gradually faded, and his mood became calmer. He opened his eyes and looked at Shen Ning quietly. He didn't ask her how she was good at acupuncture or what kind of technique it was, as if it was natural that she knew how to do it. , nothing to ask.

There is a hot current in my lungs that keeps rising.

Just as Ji Yucang was thinking about it, he suddenly stood up and lay on the edge of the bed, spitting out a mouthful of black blood with a "pop" sound.

Shen Ning took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.

Ji Yucang coughed a few times and slowly lay back on the bed, feeling a sense of comfort and relaxation as the meridians throughout his body were being washed.

Shen Ning took out the silver needle for him without saying a word.

"In the past year, I have secretly found many excellent doctors, but they are unable to do anything about this poison. I didn't expect you to solve the problem with just a few silver needles."

"It's not completely solved." Shen Ning said truthfully, "The poison in your body is continuous. Vomiting black blood only spits out the poison this month, and it will still be there next month."

Ji Yucang closed his eyes and hummed imperceptibly.

"And acupuncture to detoxify is not the best solution. It treats the symptoms but not the root cause." Shen Ning frowned, thinking about what to do. "And if it is done too often, it will cause loss of vitality and shorten life span."

"At least you should live longer than if you die from poison at the end of the two years."

Shen Ning said: "I will make an antidote for you so that you can live longer."

"Shen Ning." Ji Yucang turned his head slightly and looked at her for a moment, "If I can only live for two years, I will transfer all the available power to you within these two years. Even if I die in the future, , you will also have the ability to protect yourself.”

Shen Ning shook her head: "No need."

"I'm talking about what if." Ji Yu said calmly, "I will take the time to teach you the art of war and strategies so that you can go to the battlefield. In this way, you can hold heavy troops and guard the border of Yong State, and you will no longer have to pay attention to the imperial ban. , Don’t pay attention to the emperor’s will, you can’t do anything the emperor does.”

Shen Ning looked at him: "The army is guarding the border, and the military pay and food must be distributed by the court. If you don't obey the emperor's will, will the emperor be willing to distribute military pay and food?"

"When you have enough troops and power, money is not a problem." Ji Yu said calmly, "There are taxes in the border cities, and even under the threat of heavy troops, the emperor dare not deduct them... You should know that the more pedantic and loyal the ministers are, the most capable they will be. People who do not follow the rules often get greater convenience when being plotted by evildoers.”

Shen Ning remained silent.

At this time, she had an illusion for no reason. She always felt that Ji Yucang knew where she came from, knew that she had led soldiers, and even knew that she was good at detoxifying...otherwise it would be unexplainable. He did not resist the act of acupuncture on her just now. and questioning, unable to explain his suggestion that she lead troops into battle.

The Yong Kingdom has never had a woman lead an army. No matter how rebellious the legitimate daughter of the Zhenguo Palace is, she is only a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. How can she lead an army in a war?

Why would he think she could control hundreds of thousands of troops?

Shen Ning suppressed the sudden suspicion in her heart and said slowly: "You will be fine, so those ifs don't exist."
