"My life was saved by the princess. From now on, I will only listen to you!"

Rong Sheng glanced at Ruixiang and was glad that the maids around him were quite smart and could understand what he said.

"Rui Xiang, you will need to stay in this firewood room from now on. You must not let other people in the Marquis' Mansion find out that you have returned to normal."

"Princess, I understand!" Ruixiang nodded vigorously in response.

About half an incense stick of time passed, Rong Sheng explained everything clearly, and then left quickly with Liu Ling.

"Princess, there are less than seven days left until the execution, but Lord Lu and his wife have been arrested," Liu Ling whispered beside Rong Sheng, "Can the Marquis really get Rong Jin out?"

"Don't worry," Rong Sheng walked leisurely, not taking the matter to heart, "Rong Dexin can't leave the house easily now, so maybe he has to rely on me to replace the death row prisoner."

After noon, the late autumn wind becomes colder.

At this moment, the entire inner room of Mingyuexuan was as warm as spring.

Rong Sheng was sitting in a chair, sweating profusely as he prepared the antidote for Luohui Powder.

There is still one day before the poison of Imperial Doctor Zhou takes effect. Zhou Xu has made a great contribution this time, so she naturally cannot go back on her word.

Moreover, Empress Wei will work in the palace in the future to make Zhou Xu the new Minister of Revenue.

But Doctor Zhou had plotted against my grandfather after all, so she did not intend to completely eliminate the poison in Zhou Xu's body.

First, give them some retribution.

Second, in this way, Zhou Xu would be able to serve Song Xuanlin obediently and would not dare to have any improper thoughts.

Time passed minute by minute, and as night fell, Rong Sheng finally made the antidote.

She fell limply onto the couch.

Luohuisan is a strange poison that is difficult to cure, but the reason why she was able to make an antidote is that she had seen Luohuicao at the border of Chidan in her previous life.

This grass is different from the Heavenly Flower and is only suitable for survival in extremely cold places like the North.

Therefore, this kind of poison is only available in the Chidan Kingdom.

"No," Rong Sheng suddenly thought of something and sat up, "Since Dazhen doesn't have it, where did the Queen and Doctor Zhou get the Luohui Powder?"

She nodded and turned over the green porcelain bottle containing the antidote in her hand, and couldn't help but think of the group of Chidan thieves and Batumu on Wanjing Mountain.

"It seems that I still have to deliver the antidote myself..."

Without further ado, Rong Sheng looked at the dark night outside the window and quickly put on his nightgown.

Although the Marquis' Mansion is now surrounded by people from the palace, it would be inappropriate for Rong Sheng to go out openly.

However, the martial arts of those palace masters were not better than hers.

As long as she wanted to hide her aura, that group of people would not be able to detect it.

In order to avoid being discovered, Rong Sheng did not jump onto the roof to leave this time, but chose to go out directly through the back door.

She moved carefully, trying not to make any noise, and was out of the house in a flash.

"call--"

Rong Sheng stood in a dark shadow and looked behind him. When he found nothing unusual, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a late autumn night with a cold wind blowing. Rong Sheng listened to the whistling wind in his ears and rushed all the way until he finally arrived at Zhou's house.

At this moment, the Zhou family's inner house was also lit up, as if they were waiting for someone.

"Boom boom boom——"

Rong Sheng pressed the doorbell again and again.

After a while, the door opened slightly, and the person inside showed a vigilant look.

"I'm here to see Dr. Zhou. Please let him know."

"How can I pass on the message without a visiting card?" The butler looked Rong Sheng up and down for a moment, and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "What is your name?"

"Oh, I am a nobody. Just say that I am Master Feng's apprentice. Doctor Zhou will definitely agree to see me."

"Mr. Feng..."

The housekeeper is also an old man in the Zhou Mansion. There was indeed a "Mr. Feng" in the capital, and he and the master were enemies...

Thinking of this, he looked at Rong Sheng with a strange look.

Could this be an old friend of the Feng family?

He closed the door with a snap and walked hurriedly to the inner house.

Doctor Zhou was lying flat on the couch at this time, but his eyes were never closed, and red blood vessels were attached around his motionless pupils.

"Master, someone is looking for you outside the door."

The housekeeper tiptoed to the bedside and reported: "He said he was Master Feng's apprentice."

Doctor Zhou's pupils finally moved. He looked at the housekeeper with dim eyes. Perhaps because he was deeply poisoned, his voice was hoarse and dull: "Is that person here?"

"Is that the person you are waiting for?" The butler knew that Doctor Zhou was waiting for an important person, but the man in black outside the door looked very short, and should be a young man whose hair had not yet grown out.

"Let him in to see me, quick!"

Doctor Zhou used what little strength he had left to push the butler out, his eyes becoming even redder with excitement.

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away!"

The housekeeper had never seen Doctor Zhou so anxious before.

He ran to the door and opened it.

Rong Sheng stood outside the door and glanced at the butler calmly, and found that his attitude this time was obviously much more respectful.

The butler first bowed, then extended his hand and made a "please" gesture to Rong Sheng: "Please come this way."

"Can I come in?"

"Yes, yes, the master has been waiting for you for a long time."

After hearing this, Rong Sheng nodded and followed the housekeeper to the residence of Doctor Zhou.

"Doctor Zhou, long time no see. I'm here to see you!"

As soon as Rong Sheng entered the room, he bowed respectfully to Doctor Zhou.

When Doctor Zhou heard Rong Sheng's voice, he sat up with difficulty, leaning on the bed.

Then he glanced at the butler, and the butler tactfully withdrew.

As the door closed tightly, tears welled up in Doctor Zhou's eyes: "You are finally here, maybe you can give me the antidote now?"

Rong Sheng was stunned for a moment when he saw Doctor Zhou with tears in his eyes.

I thought to myself, this old man is really afraid of death, and his son is really like him...

"Don't worry, Doctor Zhou. I am here to deliver the antidote today. I won't play any tricks."

When Doctor Zhou heard this, he felt a little relieved, but he still felt a little scared when he thought about what Rong Sheng had done to him that day.

Feng Zhongpei's misfortune was indeed caused by him. The person in front of him was his apprentice. Who knew if he would take a fake antidote to take revenge on him.

"My son did what the queen ordered," Doctor Zhou explained in a deep voice, his tone full of grievance, "We in the Zhou family will never have second thoughts again, so don't lie to me."

"What did Doctor Zhou say?"

Rong Sheng sneered: "I am a disciple of Feng Zhongpei after all, how could I be the same as you shady people."

The corner of Doctor Zhou's mouth twitched for a moment.

But his life is still in other people's hands, so he has to endure it no matter how much ridicule he hears.

"But that doesn't mean I won't be on guard." Rong Sheng changed the subject and looked at Doctor Zhou with a teasing look in his eyes, "Your son also has poison in his body, the kind that takes seven days to dissolve."

"What did you say?!"
