However, seeing that Chu Qingzhi was so powerful, he was even more determined to become her disciple.

An hour later, Chu Qingzhi stopped them. “Let me see how many herbs you’ve written.”

Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang handed the paper to Chu Qingzhi. Chu Qingzhi took one in each hand.

There were a total of 25 herbs. Yuan Hongjun wrote 15, and Bao Linjiang wrote 14. However, she could tell that the two young men’s medical skills were very high. If it were any other doctor, they might not be able to write ten in half a day.

“You did a good job.” Chu Qingzhi showed the two of them what she had written.

“Now, I’ll tell you the ones that you failed to identify.”

Next was Chu Qingzhi’s teaching time. She explained in detail and her explanation was easy to understand.

An hour into the lecture, the two young men felt like they had broadened their minds, broken through their limitations, and seen a wider world.

Chu Qingzhi’s teaching was very engaging, unlike ordinary teachers who followed the rules. She encouraged the two of them to ask as many questions as possible to help them understand better.

Chu Qingzhi asked, “Do you understand?”

Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang nodded in unison. “Understood.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “Now, go and get the herbs on this paper. We’ll practice making the medicine. Remember to prepare a set of tools.”contemporary romance

“Yes, Master.”

The two of them took the paper and left in a hurry.

Tang Jinghong didn’t sleep well. In the dark room, he muttered, “Qingzhi, Qingzhi, wake up. Wake up and see me…”

When Chu Qingzhi heard this, her heart ached and she quickly walked into the room.

She sat on the edge of the bed and held Tang Jinghong’s hand. She comforted him gently. “Jinghong, I’m here. I’m awake. Don’t be afraid…”

After a while, Tang Jinghong relaxed his brows and his breathing became stable.

“Silly man!” Chu Qingzhi tapped Tang Jinghong’s forehead.

For the rest of the time, Chu Qingzhi sat on the edge of the bed and held Tang Jinghong’s hand, quietly accompanying him.

She didn’t leave until Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang returned at daybreak.

“Master, we’ve brought back the herbs.” The two of them said in unison, as if they were competing. Neither of them was willing to fall behind.

Chu Qingzhi asked with concern, “Why are you gone for so long?”

Yuan Hongjun said with a mischievous smile, “We couldn’t find the herbs outside, so we sneaked into the Imperial Hospital to get them.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at her two little disciples. “Rules are set up to be followed. If you don’t follow the rules, you’ll bring trouble to yourself and your family.”

The two of them thought about it. If they were discovered entering and leaving the Imperial Hospital without permission, it was even possible for them to be beheaded…

Thinking of this, the two of them felt a lingering fear. “Master, we understand. It won’t happen again.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. There was no need to reprimand the two of them. She just had to gently guide them. The two young men were quite smart.

“Now, well start making the medicine.”

“Okay.” Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang immediately became excited.

They put down the tools, a small scale, a bowl, a spoon… Under Chu Qingzhi’s instructions, they removed the leaves and ground the herbs. Step by step, they successfully concocted ten pills.

Yuan Hongjun compared the remaining pill in the bottle with the pills he had just made. He couldn’t help but laugh. “Master, the ones I made are much better.”

Bao Linjiang also took the pill and studied it. “Master, really, ours are much better.”

Chu Qingzhi looked at the pills they made and praised, “They’re all very good, but there’s still room for improvement. Continue to work hard.”

Bao Linjiang nodded heavily.

At this moment, the sun had just risen. The world was so tranquil that it made one feel peaceful.

Tang Jinghong woke up. He turned over and sat on the edge of the bed. His fingers gently rubbed the space between his eyebrows, and his head hurt.

Chu Qingzhi walked into the room and smiled. “Jinghong, you’re awake.”

Tang Jinghong held Chu Qingzhi’s hand and placed it on his forehead. After a while, he looked up. “Qingzhi, I’m going to wash up. We’ll pay a visit to the Bao family later and then return to the Chu Village.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded gently.

After breakfast, the four of them walked towards the Bao family with Bao Linjiang leading the way.

On the way, Tang Jinghong couldn’t help but ask, “Qingzhi, why did 1 suddenly fall asleep last night?”

Chu Qingzhi lied through her teeth. “You were probably too tired.”

Tang Jinghong couldn’t remember the scene when he fell asleep. He felt that he fell asleep very suddenly. He looked at Qingzhi and vaguely guessed that it might be her doing.

Chu Qingzhi changed the topic. “Jinghong, are we going back on horseback?”

Tang Jinghong nodded. “That’s faster. We’ll set off in a while and should arrive there in the afternoon.”

“Okay.”

The Bao family was a rich family, and the mansion was on the main street close to the palace. It took them a long while to arrive.

Bao Rongming and some other young people of the same generation as Tang Jinghong were waiting at the door. “Jinghong.”

When they greeted Tang Jinghong, everyone glared at Little Abalone at the same time. Little Abalone was afraid and moved to hide behind Tang Jinghong.

After Tang Jinghong greeted the Bao family and introduced Chu Qingzhi to everyone, Yuan Hongjun smiled evilly and pulled Little Abalone out from behind Tang Jinghong. “Here, I’ve brought your precious son back for you. Take him back!”

Bao Linjiang turned around and glared at Yuan Hongjun.. “If 1 find out that you are sowing discord between Master and me while I’m not around, you are finished!”
