Chapter 765 - A Misdirection



Chapter 765: A Misdirection

“What nonsense are you saying!” City Lord Lin put on a stern face, which intimidated that child into clamming up immediately.

Qiao Mu shook her hand at Lin Yongyi before taking out her needle pouch and pulling a very long silver needle from it, waving it before the little boy. “It’s only natural that sister won’t cry. If Sister feels pain, she’ll use needles to seal her acupuncture points and shut off her senses. This way, there won’t be pain.”

The little boy’s eyes followed the needle that Qiao Mu was waving back and forth. “Sister, Sister, are you going to treat me with acupuncture?! Am I not going to hurt after that?”

“Then are you afraid?”

“I’m not! Go ahead!” The boy emphatically patted his chest with his hand.

Qiao Mu inserted a needle without hesitation, and after inserting the second one, the little boy drowsily shut his eyes.

“Carry him inside. Give me paper and a brush.” Qiao Mu stood up and ordered.

“Qiaoqiao. Do you know what kind of poison they’re suffering from?” Mo Lian’s eyes curved in a smile.

“It’s not poison. This child doesn’t have a fever, is vomiting, has diarrhea, and has unbearable abdominal pain. I didn’t detect any poison inside his body either. If my guess isn’t wrong, they must have consumed edelweiss by accident.”

“How is that possible!” The old doctor flung his sleeves vigorously and argued, “They’re clearly suffering from some kind of heat poison! You should purchase some antidote pills that clear internal heat for them to consume.”

“It’s not necessary.” Qiao Mu took the paper and brush from Old Man Sun and jotted down several herbs. “City Lord, I’ll have to trouble you with this medicine. It will suffice to have the pharmacy brew the decoction according to this prescription.”

“What is the crown prince consort saying, this is this humble official’s necessary duty. This humble official will have people handle this at once!” Lin Yongyi took the prescription and quickly instructed two trusted aides to go to the pharmacy and prepare the decoction.

Seeing that Qiao Mu actually dared to refute his own diagnosis even though she was so young, the old doctor was so indignant that he picked up his medicine box and walked out.

“What’s up with him?” Qiao Mu looked up at Mo Lian in confusion, while also taking back the little white squirrel that she had stuffed into his hands earlier.

“He saw that you were young, so he didn’t believe in your medical skills. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him anymore, he could only leave in chagrin.”

Qiao Mu stated dryly, “I don’t need other people to believe in me.”

“Silly.” Mo Lian’s heart couldn’t help softening, and he raised his hand to stroke her hair. “I don’t care if other people believe or not, but in any case, I believe in you.”

Qiao Mu looked back at him with raised eyes, yet when she retracted her gaze, the corner of her mouth curved up imperceptibly.

Soon, the people at the pharmacy had followed the prescription and brewed a large bucket of the decoction.

Qiao Mu watched as everyone lined up to receive a bowl of decoction, and she couldn’t help but mutter to herself, “Don’t you find it a bit strange? That person created such a disturbance with great fanfare, but for what reason exactly? Only to have people vomit and suffer from diarrhea, and make their stomachs hurt?”

A casual remark may sound significant to the suspicious listener. Mo Lian narrowed his eyes, and he secretly tugged Qiao Mu’s small hand before turning to give Lin Yongyi a meaningful look.

The three people quickly walked towards the back of the farm.

“Your Highness, you suspect that this is only a misdirection, and the person’s main target is to inflict large-scale damage on the yellow shaft field?” Lin Yongyi’s footsteps abruptly halted. He staggered slightly before running several steps forwards, yelling vehemently as he gazed at the tract of withered yellow shaft. “How did this happen?”

“Ah? How did this happen!” Lin Yongyi frantically jumped onto the embankment, running towards the interior.
