The prefect's wife was shocked, and hurriedly hugged him, shouting, "Go and get a doctor!"

Then she skillfully took out a bottle of medicine from her body, and without caring about anything else, she fed her youngest son a pill with some water.

The eldest and second sons of the Zhong family also hurried over. The eldest son said loudly, "My apologies to all distinguished guests. My mother has to take my younger brother back to the inner courtyard first. My second brother will arrange for the departure of any young man or young lady who wants to leave early."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Master Zhong II began to arrange for everyone to leave. At this time, Cheng Jiayu finally discovered Bai Zhaozhao. He looked at her in astonishment for a few seconds, then turned around to help Master Zhong II make arrangements.

Bai Zhaozhao had already noticed his gaze, but she pretended not to notice.

Just as the prefect's wife stood up to leave, a voice suddenly rang out: "Wait a minute!"

It’s Fang Jingyao.

Suddenly everyone's eyes were focused on her.

She took out a bottle of medicine and said, "Madam, don't worry. I just heard the word 'rhea'. I happen to have our Fang family's secret medicine here, which is specially used to cure rhea! Why not try it first to relieve it?"

The prefect's wife was a little hesitant. She looked at her son in her arms and finally shook her head.

Mr. Zhong said directly: "Thank you Miss Fang for your kindness. My family has the medicine that my third brother often uses."

"Wait a moment!" At this time, a middle-aged man came running in. He was the court doctor.

He came to the prefect's wife and said, "Let me see the young master first before moving him, or we'll have to waste time going to the inner courtyard."

"Okay." The prefect's wife immediately placed her youngest son on the prepared chair.

After a moment, the court doctor asked, "Did the young master go to the garden?"

Nanny Wang replied hastily, "I did go there, but the garden was cleaned up last year, so there are no peach trees."

Bai Zhaozhao understood that this young master was allergic to peach blossoms.

At this time, Fang Jingyao was unwilling to give up and said, "Madam, this medicine in my house is very famous. Why don't we ask the palace doctor to take a look?"

Before the prefect's wife could say anything, the middle-aged doctor came over and smelled it, nodded and said, "Madam, I have heard of this medicine, and it works well. The young master's condition is a bit serious this time, so let's try applying it on him!"

Since the court doctor said so, the prefect's wife no longer hesitated and asked someone to apply the medicine.

Before I finished applying the cream, I heard the maid say, "Oh, it's getting lighter, the acne is going away!"

Everyone was a little curious, and many of the guests who had not left clearly saw that the young man's arm had gotten much better.

It really works! After examining him, the doctor said, "It's okay, take him away and just rest!"

The prefect's wife also breathed a sigh of relief and had the child taken downstairs to boil medicine.

Fang Jingyao remained calm in the face of everyone's admiring gazes. She glanced at Bai Zhaozhao out of the corner of her eye.

Bai Zhaozhao became alert. Sure enough, Fang Jingyao suddenly asked, "I remember this Miss Bai has a kind of scented powder on her body. I wonder if it contains peach blossoms?"

"Oh, I remember now!" Nanny Fang said to the prefect's wife, "The young master went to the wrong place before. He went to the guest room where this young lady is!"

Bai Zhaozhao was a little surprised. Their going to the guest room was an accident, but if encountering the young master was a plan, then saving him was also a plan?

If everything is planned out, then it is a chain of schemes?

Or was he already prepared to save the young master, and was just counterattacking now?

Before Bai Zhaozhao could argue, a counter-actor appeared. Miss Zhang Qi asked, "What does Miss Fang mean? Are you saying that Miss Bai brought the scented powder containing peach blossoms, and that's why she harmed the young master? Even if that's the case, Miss Bai didn't mean it!"

Fang Jingyao nodded calmly: "I didn't say it was intentional, I just wanted to remind Madam."

The people around also echoed that it was probably unintentional, because many people didn't know that the young master was not allowed to touch peach blossoms. Some ladies even admitted that they had used rouge and powder containing peach blossoms, but they had not come into contact with the young master.

Fang Jingyao added: "Madam, everyone is right, but Miss Bai also gave the county lady a bag of perfume powder."

The prefect's wife nodded and said, "It's okay. The county lady usually lives in the other courtyard."

Then she looked at Bai Zhaozhao again and said to everyone: "Let's forget about what happened today. It was my fault for not taking good care of the child and scaring everyone!"

What a good trick, directly locking down Bai Zhaozhao as the allergen, and also involving the county lord at the same time!

Bai Zhaozhao felt something was wrong. Fang Jingyao had been somewhat arrogant and domineering before, but now she was calm and composed, as if she had become a different person.

Unless, this was her original purpose today, a scene that had already been planned!

It's not a chain of tricks, it's a counter-attack!

I'm afraid that even if the young master did not go to the wrong place, she would still mention this perfume powder.

Zhang Ruolan's face turned pale. She knew that if this matter was true, Bai Zhaozhao would be forgotten in the heart of the prefect's wife!

So she said, "How can Miss Fang make such random assumptions about others?"

Fang Jingyao smiled and said, "Why are you so nervous, Miss Zhang? I'm just making a reasonable guess! Sorry, Miss Bai, I speak my mind and say whatever comes to my mind. If that doesn't work, can you just tell me the formula of this perfume powder?"

So this is to let Bai Zhaozhao prove his innocence?

What a pity, Bai Zhaozhao doesn't like this kind of self-affirmation, not to mention, no one would care even if she really said it!

With a "whoosh" sound, a silver needle shot out, and Fang Jingyao felt a numbness on her hand. She widened her eyes and watched her uncontrollable hand suddenly "slap" and slapped herself!

Everyone was shocked, and Fang Jingyao couldn't believe it either. But then, the second, third, and fourth...

"What have you done? Ma'am, she's a witch! Catch her now!"

"Snapped!"

Fang Jingyao finally lost her composure and started yelling.

"Witch! Quick, catch her!"

"Snapped!"

The court doctor was so shocked that he was speechless. By the time he reacted, Fang Jingyao had already slapped himself more than a dozen times!

He hurried over and pulled the silver needle out of Fang Jingyao's hand, then came to Bai Zhaozhao and saluted, saying, "I didn't expect that the young lady is actually an expert in medicine. I admire you! I think this is just a misunderstanding, and Miss Fang didn't mean it..."

This unexpected change made everyone unwilling to leave and started whispering to each other.

At this time, a handsome man standing in the distance put away his playful expression and looked at Bai Zhaozhao in astonishment.

Bai Zhaozhao attracted much attention for a while. She said, "I'm sorry, Miss Fang. I'm a straightforward person and I can't stand others throwing dirty water at me. Miss Fang happened to be crying thief, and I couldn't help it. My hand slipped."

"Puchi!" Some brave ladies laughed out loud.

"You! What nonsense are you talking about? Who threw dirty water on me?" Fang Jingyao shouted again.

The prefect's wife also came to her senses. She looked at Fang Jingyao meaningfully, then perked up and asked Bai Zhaozhao, "Miss Bai, if you have anything to say, just say it."
