However, when it saw that Su Yingxue had dissected a large number of rabbits, it felt it was a waste. It then hung up one or two and tossed them into a small hole behind the spiritual spring.
Su Yingxue noticed that there were fewer rabbits. When she went over to investigate, she found that Little Ginseng had used the rabbit corpses she had dissected to feed the poisonous insects.
âYouâre raising so many⦠little cuties!â
Su Yingxueâs eyes widened. The spiritual spring exuded a pleasant and fresh aroma, while in the small hole behind it, spiders, centipedes, and scorpions were happily feasting on the rabbit corpses.
âYou find them cute too, donât you?â
âYou think itâs cute too, right? Theyâve always been eating grass, but 1 thought it would be a waste to leave these rabbit corpses here, so 1 gave them a change of taste.â
âWhy didnât you tell me that you as a ginseng have a penchant for raising poisonous insects?â
Su Yingxue gazed at the scorpions in the small hole. They had vibrant and colorful patterns on their backs, which were aesthetically pleasing. However, as a doctor, Su Yingxue knew that these spiders and scorpions carried various deadly toxins.
âLife⦠oh, no, I mean âginseng lifeâ is just too dull! And donât you think theyâre adorable? More importantly, their bodies are full of treasures. If youâre stung, healthy people will die, but some sick individuals might get better. It has unexpectedly beneficial effects.â
Little Ginseng proudly waved its whiskers.
Su Yingxue smiled. âTheyâre indeed precious for a poison-versus-poison approach.â
However, she wasnât a poison doctor, so she didnât have the time to delve into these poisons for now. She only fed the rabbits to the creatures when she had spare moments. Over time, they became quite friendly with her, even crawling onto her for play.
Ten days later, the Tongchang Medical Center was fully restored. Chu Mingyuan personally presented the plaque, and Su Yingxue organized the clinicâs reopening. As she returned to the clinic, she found herself swamped with work, with no time to rest.
After examining one patient, she called out, âNext.â
Lianâer rushed in, her eyes brimming with tears. âMiss Su, please, save our princess.â
Su Yingxueâs expression turned somber as she followed Lianâer to the Princessâs Manor.
After talcing the princessâs pulse, Su Yingxue furrowed her brow. âIs this the work of Chu Xiuwen?â
Sheng Pingâs tragic and ashen face spoke of deep despair. She didnât answer but conveyed everything through her expression.
âThat vile scum!â
Su Yingxue cursed. She had never seen such a disgusting man before!
Not only did he bully women, but he also made them suffer so much that they wished they were dead!
Sheng Ping could no longer give birth, but now she was ill and could not stand it. Coupled with her long-term depression, it was not a sign of longevity.
âDr. Su, I beg you, I want⦠to see Your Highness again.â
Tears welled up in Sheng Pingâs pleading eyes.
Su Yingxue pursed her lips. âFor now, you must focus on your recovery. Other matters can be considered after you regain your health.â
âDr. Su, 1 know my time is limited, but 1 beg you to let me see Your Highness again. Please help me deliver this sachet to him. I simply want to see Your Highness once more before 1 depart this world.â
Sheng Pingâs frail hands tightly gripped Su Yingxueâs arm.
Su Yingxueâs beautiful face turned cold. âHow can you be certain that he will meet you?â
âIf it were anyone else pleading with him, he might not agree. But you⦠Your Highness has fallen for you. If you speak on my behalf, he will undoubtedly come to see me.â
The softness in Sheng Pingâs voice tugged at the heartstrings.
However, Su Yingxue wouldnât let her principles waver.
âYou know that Your Highness has feelings for me, but do you know that 1 also have affection for him?â
