The daughter of the emperor was reborn and was spoiled by the sickly prince.

Madam Han explained to everyone the purpose of the old master's visit. Everyone present, except Liao Qinglan, found it unbelievable.

"This pill really has miraculous effects. Even Old Master Qin came to visit us in person. It's really surprising!" A hint of pride flashed in Cheng Yunxiang's eyes.

Zhou, who was usually dignified and virtuous, couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed: "My second brother has such ability, my parents can finally rest assured."

Zhou was also proud of Cheng Yuan. It was an honor for the entire family to be able to offer medicine to the Queen Mother.

The other servants present were also whispering to each other.

No one expected that the second son, who gave up the imperial examination and made his master so angry that he almost fainted, would have such talent and develop a miracle medicine that all the important officials in the court were vying for.

Although Mrs. Han was also proud of Cheng Yuan's achievements, she was more worried and uncertain.

After the imperial examination, Cheng Yuan has not returned home for more than two months. The Rongguo Mansion has never looked for him, and no one knows where Cheng Yuan is now.

Liao Qinglan saw her aunt's anxious expression and felt that this was a good opportunity for her cousin to gain recognition from the family.

She walked forward and whispered, "Aunt, why do you look unhappy? Are you still disappointed with your second cousin?"

Madam Han sighed softly and shook her head, with complicated emotions in her eyes: "Qinglan, your second cousin has not been heard from since the end of the imperial examination. I don't know where he is, nor do I know if he is willing to come back."

Liao Qinglan couldn't help but think of her previous life.

After Cheng Yuan chose to go into business, his family did not understand and thought he was bringing disgrace to the family, so he never returned.

However, when his family fell into trouble, he rushed back immediately and spent all his wealth to ensure the safety of his family.

She did not directly tell Mrs. Han about Cheng Yuan's whereabouts, but analyzed carefully: "Second cousin sent someone to send you a large bottle of pills, which shows that he still cares about you and uncle very much. He didn't come back because he must be afraid of being punished by you."

"Your uncle and I are angry because he is ignorant and unskilled. We are afraid that he will only live a life of debauchery in the future. We do not look down on merchants. He has proven himself in the business world, and we will not punish him anymore."

Hearing this, Liao Qinglan felt relieved: "Second cousin has proven his ability and talent. I can try to contact him. If he knows your feelings, he will definitely come back."

Mrs. Han looked at Liao Qinglan, and the worry in her heart was gradually replaced by hope.

After leaving the Rongguo Mansion, Liao Qinglan went to several shops owned by Cheng Yuan, but couldn't find him. She thought he might not have gone out today, so she went to his house.

This is the house that Cheng Yuan bought for himself after leaving home. The gate is open and one can see everything inside from the outside.

My second cousin is not a spoiled and extravagant person. There are almost no scenery or decorations in his house except for the necessities of life.

This was Liao Qinglan’s first time here, and she felt strange about it.

My second cousin is so rich, why doesn’t he hire a security guard? The gate is open and no one is watching.

She looked around the yard but saw no one.

Just as I was about to leave, I heard some noise in a room.

She didn't think much and just pushed the door open.

Wow! There is no one here! Everyone is tied up here!

Cheng Yuan and several security guards were tied to chairs with thick ropes and their mouths were blocked with cloth so they could not speak.

The foreheads of several people were covered with fine beads of sweat, obviously after a fierce struggle.

"Oh, here comes another one!" The silver-haired old man narrowed his eyes, playing with a silver needle in his hand, and said dangerously.

It was Mo Wang, the genius doctor who was captured by Gu Mingzhao and brought into the palace to take care of her in her previous life.

Before Liao Qinglan could say anything, a small stone flew over and hit her acupuncture point.

She was like being frozen in place, unable to move.

Mo Wang snorted coldly: "You little brat, if you don't tell me where you got the prescription from, I will use this beautiful girl to test the medicine."

"Master! You've blocked their mouths. They can't say anything even if they want to!" Liao Qinglan shouted.

Fortunately, the master did not do it himself, but used stones to poke the acupuncture points in the air, so she was able to open the acupuncture points easily.

A hint of surprise flashed across Mo Wang's eyes: "You can actually unblock my acupoints. No, what did you call me?"

Although Mo Wang is old, he has a very good memory. He doesn't remember having accepted such a disciple.

"You are my master, don't forget! I had a dream. In the dream, I was an orchid. You took me home and watered me day and night, taking good care of me. I accompanied you to study and see patients every day. You liked to talk to me and taught me a lot of medical knowledge! I gave that prescription to my cousin, just to try to see if I could find the old man in the dream!"

The theory of rebirth was so mysterious that Liao Qinglan couldn't explain it clearly, so she just adapted it into the story of past and present lives written in the picture book.

Mo Wang was stunned for a moment, and looked at her sharply: "Little girl, I, Mo Wang, have been traveling around the world for many years, and have seen many strange things, but the dream you described is the first time I have encountered it."

Liao Qinglan said quickly: "It's absolutely true. I also know that Master plans to learn from Shennong to taste hundreds of herbs and compile the "Hundred Herbs Record"!"

Mo Wang, who was originally half-believing and half-doubting, was shocked and fell into deep thought when he heard her words.

This was something he had been preparing for, but had never put it into action and had never told anyone about it!

Could it be that this girl really has a connection with me in our past and present lives?

Although he believed Liao Qinglan's words, Mo Wang couldn't help but complain: "Aren't you afraid that I will blame you for giving my prescription to someone else like this?"

"If I don't do this, how can I find my master and let you know that there is a disciple like me?" Liao Qinglan pouted and said aggrievedly: "If my master blames me, I will give you all the money I earn and never sell it again."

Mo Wang waved his hand: "You already call me Master, how can I still bother with you about such a trivial matter?"

Liao Qinglan felt relieved when she heard this and smiled flatteringly, "Then Master, can you let my cousin and the others go?"

Mo Wang then remembered that there were a whole room of people tied up here.

After getting Mo Wang's approval, Liao Qinglan quickly untied Cheng Yuan and gave him a look of gratitude and guilt.

"I'm here just to figure out what's going on. You can use my prescriptions as you like, but don't do anything that's harmful to the world. I'm leaving now. See you again if we're lucky."

Mo Wang was about to leave when Liao Qinglan grabbed his sleeve.

"Master, I'm actually in a hurry to find you to ask for something."

"What's the matter?"

"I have a friend who was seriously injured before and is now very weak, so I would like to ask Master to go back with me and take good care of him." Liao Qinglan was referring to Gu Mingzhao.

"This..." Mo Wang hesitated.

"My family has many rare medical books, including books from the palace. If Master wants to read them, I can give them to you!" Liao Qinglan offered extremely tempting conditions.

Mo Wang's expression relaxed slightly, but he still didn't agree.

Liao Qinglan had no choice but to use her ultimate move: "My roasted chicken is especially delicious. Master, come with me, and I will roast a chicken for you every day!"

Mo Wang's eyes lit up: "You even know this? I accept you as my disciple. Let's go."

Liao Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief.

Sometimes I really suspect that my master is a weasel who has turned into a spirit. He would rather give up mountains of gold and silver than a roast chicken.

With the master around, Gu Mingzhao will definitely be taken care of and will be in good health!
