Chapter 344 - 344 344 Theres Something Wrong with This

Chapter 344: Chapter 344: There’s Something Wrong with This Medicine Chapter 344: Chapter 344: There’s Something Wrong with This Medicine An imperial doctor, seeing that the Emperor actually agreed to use Lin Caisang’s prescription, couldn’t contain his concerns regardless of his own skin, and stepped forward.

“The Elder Princess is so frail, and if she follows this prescription, I fear…”

“You fear what?”

The Emperor glared at the imperial doctor.

“If you guys are capable, then come up with a prescription to heal the Elder Princess, to detoxify her, but if you can’t, then shut up! Should any nonsense escape your lips, I won’t let it slide!”

At this point, he could only trust Lin Caisang.

“Uh.”

Upon hearing the Emperor’s words, the imperial doctors were frightened into silence.

After a while, Nanny Bai came over with a tray in her hand, which held a bowl of freshly brewed medicine. She bowed to the Emperor and was about to take the medicine into the Elder Princess’s room.

“Wait.”

Suddenly, Lin Caisang’s face darkened, stopping Nanny Bai.

“Lady Doctor, do you need something?” Nanny Bai turned around to look at Lin Caisang, asking.

Lin Caisang moved quickly to Nanny Bai’s front, grabbed the bowl of medicine from the tray, sniffed it, furrowed her brows, and took a light sip onto her palate.

After quite a while, she spat the medicine out onto the ground and wiped her lips with a handkerchief.

“Something’s wrong with this medicine.”

“Wrong?”

Nanny Bai’s face paled.

“Impossible. Lady Doctor, I personally watched as the Mansion’s doctor prepared this medicine in the pharmacy, and personally boiled it. No one else has touched it—it can’t be wrong.”

Even after leaving the kitchen, she had assigned her two most trusted maids to guard it. How could anyone have possibly tampered with the medicine?

“My lady, has someone tampered with this medicine?” The Eldest Prince immediately stepped forward, asking.

Even the Emperor stood up anxiously upon hearing her words.

All the people in the Princess’s Mansion had been replaced. How could anything go wrong? Would he have to take his sister into the palace to guarantee her safety?

Lin Caisang glanced at them, put the medicine bowl back onto the tray, and rubbed her forehead.

“Nobody tampered with it. The proportions of each medicinal herb are incorrect. The potency of the medicine is off. My prescription is precise, even the smallest discrepancies in measurement could result in failure. Nanny Bai, I wrote the years of production of the medicinal herbs on my prescription—did you compare them?”

She asked Nanny Bai.

“Uh…”

Nanny Bai took a glance at Lin Caisang, confusion clouding her eyes.

“Lady Doctor, I don’t know the years of production of the medicinal herbs in the pharmacy, and the doctor only picked according to weight. As for the years… I didn’t think it would matter.”

She had never heard of prescriptions that specified the age of each herb. It would drive anyone to madness.

“It might not matter when treating others, but it’s critical for the Elder Princess.” Lin Caisang came across stern, explaining.

“If her body cannot properly absorb the herbs due to overheating or too intense treatment, she will become even frailer. My prescription tolerates no differences, not even a hair width. Otherwise, this would not be a life-saving potion but a deadly poison.”

“Hiss!”

Nanny Bai sucked in a breath, her face full of terror.

“Lady, lady, I didn’t know, I truly didn’t know it would be like this…”

If she had known, no matter how tedious, she would have prepared the medicine precisely as written, word for word.
