Jiang Yanwan looked solemn, and said to Wu Junyao in a deep voice: "Commander-in-chief, there is no time to lose, we must start detoxification immediately. But the old lady's body is already full of toxins, and ordinary treatments are unlikely to work quickly. Only extraordinary methods can be tried."

Wu Junyao was shocked when he heard this: "What kind of extraordinary method? No matter what it is, as long as it can save my grandmother, I am willing to give it a try!"

Jiang Yanwan's eyes were firm as she explained softly, "You need to use my blood as a medicine. My blood contains special antibodies that can accelerate the neutralization of toxins. This is currently the fastest and most direct method."

When Wu Junyao heard this, his expression suddenly changed: "This... How can this be possible! It will cause great harm to your body!"

"Don't worry, Commander. I will control the dosage and won't hurt the root." Jiang Yanwan comforted him. Then, without further ado, she took out a silver needle and pierced her fingertip, letting the blood drop into the special medicine bowl and mix with the medicine juice.

During the whole process, Wu Junyao watched closely from the side, feeling mixed emotions, full of heartache and gratitude.

After taking the special medicine, the old lady gradually calmed down, her breathing became smoother, and her face became a little red. Jiang Yanwan breathed a sigh of relief and leaned aside, her face looking a little pale.

"Yan Wan, you're taking too much risk." Wu Junyao stepped forward, his eyes full of pity, and gently stroked her back.

Jiang Yanwan forced a smile and said, "A doctor is kind-hearted. Since I have chosen this path, I have made all preparations. The most important thing right now is that we must find the person who poisoned me."

Wu Junyao nodded, his eyes flashing fiercely: "I will investigate this matter thoroughly and will never let any evildoer who intends to harm my family escape punishment."

A few days later, under Jiang Yanwan's careful care, the old lady gradually recovered. Wu Junyao also kept his promise, not only collecting countless precious medicinal materials from all over the place, but also invited a hermit master to specially regulate Jiang Yanwan's body.

That day, the two of them were walking in the back garden, the autumn breeze blowing on their faces, bringing coolness. Wu Junyao suddenly stopped and looked at Jiang Yanwan seriously: "You have always been running around for others and sacrificing yourself. This time, let me do something for you."

Jiang Yanwan was stunned and didn't understand.

"I know your blood and energy are severely damaged, and ordinary herbs will not be able to restore them in a short time." Wu Junyao took out a jade box with a warm color from his arms. After opening it, a crystal clear pill lay quietly inside. "This is the 'Hui Yuan Pill' that my family has kept secret. It is specially prepared for warriors and high-level doctors. It can quickly restore vitality. If you take it, you may be able to recover faster."

Jiang Yanwan stared at the pill in a daze, with mixed emotions in her heart. This was not only a pill, but also Wu Junyao's love for her. Whether in the past life or this life, he had always tried his best to give her the best things.

"Governor, this is too expensive. I can't accept it." She said hesitantly.

Wu Junyao chuckled, his eyes as gentle as water: "Master, you deserve the best. Besides, if something happens to you, what will happen to my grandmother? Who else can make me feel so at ease like you?"

Jiang Yanwan's eyes were filled with tears after hearing what he said. She finally took the pill and thanked him softly. She understood that this kindness was not just a simple one between a doctor and a patient.

As the sun sets, the two walk slowly under the backdrop of the sunset, and the topic unconsciously turns to relaxing daily life.

The next day, Jiang Yanwan sat by the window, holding the letter from the eldest princess tightly in her hand, her brows furrowed.

Ah Yan, her child, unexpectedly met with misfortune in the palace. Her heart seemed to be clenched by an invisible hand, and the pain was unbearable.

"Yan Wan, what happened?" Wu Junyao walked into the room and asked immediately when he saw that she looked strange.

Jiang Yanwan raised her head, a complex expression flashing in her eyes: "Ayan... broke his leg and is now in the palace."

Wu Junyao was stunned for a moment, then his face became serious: "Let's leave immediately, I will arrange a carriage."

Inside the palace, there were countless undercurrents amidst the splendor. Jiang Yanwan followed Wu Junyao in hastily and headed straight for the side hall where Ah Yan was.

Seeing her son lying on the bed, his calf properly bandaged, his little face pale but pretending to be strong, her heart felt like it was being pierced by needles.

"Mom, I'm fine." A Yan forced a smile, not wanting to make his mother worry too much.

Jiang Yanwan gently stroked his cheek and said softly, "Ah Yan, be good, mother is here, everything will be fine."

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Jiang Yanwan carefully examined Ayan's wound in the dim candlelight.

The shoe print on the knee was extremely obvious. Her heart tightened more and more, and an ominous premonition shrouded her heart.

"Ayan, tell mother, how did you fall?" She tried to keep her voice calm.

Ah Yan's eyes flickered for a moment, but he finally shook his head: "I really can't remember, it's just that the horse was suddenly frightened..."

Jiang Yanwan did not ask any further questions. She knew that if Ayan was unwilling to speak, he must have his reasons.

She sighed softly and began to prepare the ointment for Ayan again, while silently planning in her mind that she must get to the bottom of this matter.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone in, A Yan opened his eyes and saw Jiang Yanwan sitting beside the bed. Her eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had not slept all night.

"Mom..." Ah Yan hesitated to speak, his heart filled with guilt.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Jiang Yanwan smiled slightly, hiding her inner worries, and changed to a lighter topic. "By the way, I received your letter yesterday. I'm very pleased that you have learned a lot in the palace, especially horsemanship. I also want to see your progress."

When it comes to horse riding, Ah Yan's face was sad, and then he seemed to think of something and said softly: "Mom, I actually have a secret to tell you."

Jiang Yanwan listened attentively, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. The conversation between mother and son seemed particularly warm in the quiet morning light.

"Mom, I didn't fall down accidentally that day. Someone did something to my horse." A Yan finally plucked up the courage and whispered the truth.

Jiang Yanwan's heart suddenly tightened, but she remained calm on the surface: "Do you know who it is?"

Ah Yan shook his head: "I didn't see it, I just remember a figure flashing by quickly."

"Ayan, remember, protecting yourself is the most important thing at all times. Mother will investigate this matter thoroughly, so you can rest assured and recover from your injuries." Jiang Yanwan said in a firm tone, with an unquestionable light in her eyes.

After hearing what A Yan said, Jiang Yanwan's anger burned like a raging fire. Reason told her to stay calm, but her instinct as a mother prevented her from sitting idly by.

The next day, she packed her things and decided to go to the aristocratic school in the imperial city in person. It was where the heirs of various major families gathered, and it might also be the source of the attack on A Yan.

In the school, the sound of reading can be heard one after another, and the air is filled with the faint scent of ink and the coolness of the bluestone road.

Jiang Yanwan was dressed in plain and elegant clothes as she stepped into the world of the children of the powerful. Her arrival caused quite a stir, after all, the school rarely had outsiders visiting, let alone a female doctor who was famous throughout the area.

"Excuse me, this is a place where children of nobles study. What can I do for you, madam?" An elderly instructor stepped forward and asked, with a hint of vigilance in his tone.
