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.”
Old Ma directly said, “I need a few people infected with the plague to test the medicine.”
Su Yan nodded in agreement. The Imperial Hospital had recruited plague patients to test the medicine.
Before they went to look for them, they saw Song Zhuo walking over with his men.
“Old Ma, hurry up and pack your things. We are taking over this place.”
Old Ma asked, “Then where do you want me to go?”
Song Zhuo glanced at him and said, “I’ll arrange someone to send you out of the palace.”
Old Ma pointed at the medicine bowl and said, “I just developed an antidote that can cure the plague, and you want me to leave the palace?”
These words made the people on the opposite side burst into laughter. Song Zhuo said, “Any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to call themselves a miracle doctor. Those who come to the imperial palace to freeload also boast that they have developed an antidote?”
Su Yan could not stand it and said angrily, “Left Court Judge, aren’t you going overboard with your words?”
Song Zhou frowned as he looked at her and said mockingly, “Could it be that the antidote this old man mentioned was brought by you, Princess Consort?”
Before she could say anything, Old Ma said proudly, “That’s right, it was brought by Princess Consort Guang Pingwang.”
Song Zhou had portrayed the image of a villain who used his power to bully others to the fullest extent, causing Su Yan to helplessly hold her forehead.
His mockery became even more obvious and he did not even try to hide it. He said, “Looks like Princess Consort still did not listen to what I said before. Let me repeat it, you do not need to interfere in this matter.”
Su Yan held back her anger and said, “You have already occupied so much space. Let Old Ma have this place.”
“If Princess Consort Guang Pingwang insists on saying this, I have no choice. Who asked Guang Pingwang had the power to cover the sky?” Old Ma said these words in a strange tone. It was obvious that he was saying that Su Yan was bullying others.
Old Ma looked at her as if he was saying that her title as princess consort was not very useful.
Su Yan was speechless.. This person who claimed to be a miracle doctor but even his nest was destroyed had the nerve to laugh at her.
