Chapter 147

In the blink of an eye, three days passed. During her time at the General’s Estate, Xu Junjun spent her days either keeping Old Madam Huo company or sequestering herself in her room to pore over medical texts. After three long, arduous nights of deep contemplation, she finally formulated a recuperative prescription best suited for the Old Madam’s constitution. She handed the prescription to the estate physician, instructing him to present it to Huo Qiming as his own recommendation. Upon receiving the prescription, the physician scrutinized it repeatedly for an entire day. With every passing hour, his astonishment grew, and his curiosity regarding this man named Jiang Xu—whose features were rather unsightly—deepened. His mastery of the properties and applications of various herbs was so profound that his expertise was in no way inferior to his own. He was certain this man must be the scion of some prestigious medical lineage; he resolved that, given the chance, he would definitely discuss pharmacology with him in depth.
