Gu Chengrui repeatedly tasted it and stated, “This is made from the leaves of the Hardy Ice Plant, and its taste is very light. If it wasn’t for Ying’er’s sensitive tongue, I’m sure she wouldn’t have discovered it.”

Yang Wanning nodded in agreement. “That’s true. I’ve been drinking these tea leaves for five or six days and haven’t tasted anything unusual.”

“Hardy Ice Plant, is it that kind of edible plant?” Zhou Ying asked uncertainly. If that was the case, it meant the merchant had sold them a fake. Otherwise… Gu Chengrui shook his head. He had read about this Hardy Ice Plant in a medical book when living in the Mother Goddess Temple. This plant was similar to the snow lotus and grew in the snow.

Therefore, it possessed a cold nature. A woman’s body would stop ovulating if she took even a small amount of it for three months. Even a man could not withstand the side effects of ingesting these, losing his life if he did so for half a year.

Thinking of this, he handed a single leaf to Yang Wanning and said, “Take a good look at this. Don’t drink the tea leaves when you return home.

“Over the next two days, find an opportunity to visit our residence. I’ll prepare some pills for you; take them for half a month to recuperate your body.”

Yang Wanning nodded repeatedly and said, “I’ll remember it.”

“Cousin, can 1 learn some shallow medical skills from you to protect myself?”

“Didn’t Auntie send someone to teach you this before?”

“My mother did teach me to identify some common herbs, but not such a rare herb.”

“Sure, you can come over when I’m free. Learn as much as you can.” Gu Chengrui hesitated for a moment but eventually nodded in agreement.

However, he still warned her, “However, you cannot kill with the knowledge 1 teach you. Otherwise, don’t blame me for exposing you.”

“I promise you that I will never kill or hurt anyone with that knowledge.”

Gu Chengrui nodded silently to that. He handed her the remaining leaves and said, “Let’s start with this Hardy Ice Plant. Try and pick them out from the actual Pu-er tea leaves. Remember not only the shape but also the taste and color.”

Yang Wanning nodded and took the pile of leaves over to study it with Chun Xi.

Zhou Ying shook her head when she saw this. It was not easy for a woman to survive under such an archaic feudal system.

She had to learn more, too. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if she had her food spiked in the future.

Gu Chengrui saw her solemn face and grabbed her hand with a smile. “We’ll be together forever.”

Zhou Ying smiled and nodded without replying.

For a moment, the carriage fell silent, and soon they arrived at the Imperial Residence of King An.

After the four of them exited the carriage, they asked the gatekeeper to inform the owner of their arrival.

Someone finally came out after a quarter of an hour—an old nanny.

When the old nanny saw them, she bowed and said, “Greetings, Lord Gu, Madam Gu, and Miss Yang. Madam Consort An is waiting in the courtyard.” “Sorry to bother Granny Zhang; please lead the way.” Zhou Ying smiled and replied.

After that, the group of people followed her into the house.

After entering, they finally knew why their reception took this long.

It took them about 15 minutes to reach Madam Consort An’s courtyard, which was in the fourth courtyard from the main entrance.

Just as they entered the courtyard, they saw Princess Mingyu. She came up to them and said, “It’s you two? Please come in.”

After saying that to the two girls, she nodded politely at Gu Chengrui and led them into the house.

After entering the room, they saw Madam Consort An lying on a bed. Zhou Ying was stunned by that and asked, “Greetings, Madam Consort An, you are…?” “Sorry for being negligent about your visit. I’ve been suffering from insomnia these few nights, and I’m so sleepy that I can’t open my eyes during the day.” Madam Consort An sat up and greeted them.

She quickly added, “You guys, take a seat. I’m fine..”
