Chapter 225: Don’t Even Think About Marrying My Imperial Younger Sister!
When Divine Doctor Zhao heard this, he was so angry that his beard bristled: “That brat actually dared to refine pills!”
It pissed him off!
The only Heart-Protecting Herb was wasted by him.
Although he still had doubts in his heart, thinking this was fake and the other party’s purpose in saying so was to bargain, he was also really worried that if it was true, the remaining Soul-Soothing Herbs would be ruined!
Even if he could go to Qi Xiong Mountain to look for it, he might not be able to find it.
His greatest wish in this life was to be able to refine the Four Divine Pills and leave his name in history. He originally thought that he would have regrets for the rest of his life, but now that he had the opportunity, although he could only refine one, he didn’t want to miss it.
Therefore, he said to Prime Minister Liang again: “Tell the other party that I agree to exchange two Soul-Soothing Herbs. However, let me see if they really have two Soul-Soothing Herbs in their hands.”
“Okay!”
Prime Minister Liang was also angry and anxious. If Divine Doctor Zhao had agreed to the exchange earlier, the Heart-Protecting Herb wouldn’t have been ruined by Young Divine Doctor Zhao!
He could have asked the other party to take out one Heart-Protecting Herb and one Soul-Soothing Herb for the exchange, so wouldn’t he be able to refine the Heart-Protecting Pill?
But now, even if there was only the Soul-Soothing Herb left, he had to exchange it!
He only hoped that Young Divine Doctor Zhao, after seeing these divine pills, would really be able to refine the Heart-Protecting Pill, so that his son could be saved.
At that time, he would just have someone come forward and buy it at a high price.
Divine Doctor Zhao said that one Heart-Protecting Herb could produce at least two pills and at most five pills in one furnace.
Prime Minister Liang hurriedly went to find the manager to arrange this matter.
The next night, Chu Tiankuo and Xingnong smiled when they saw the letter.
Xingnong said: “Agree, then arrange for someone to let Divine Doctor Zhao see the Soul-Soothing Herb. Then say that we also want to see the Four Divine Pills and the Firefly Fruit. We will consider whether to exchange or not after seeing them.”
Chu Tiankuo laughed: “That’s exactly what I meant!”
After they saw it, they wouldn’t need to exchange!
Then Xingnong ground the ink, and Chu Tiankuo picked up the brush to reply to the letter.
Two days later
Prime Minister Liang and Divine Doctor Zhao arrived at Room Tian Zi No. 2 of Welcome Inn as agreed.
The one who received them was one of Chu Tiankuo’s subordinates named Ye An. Ye An was tall and mighty, a full 1.9 meters tall, a whole head taller than Prime Minister Liang and Divine Doctor Zhao. He was like a mountain in front of the two of them!
Ye An was wearing a silver mask at the moment, but Prime Minister Liang thought to himself, he was so tall, it was really rare, what was the difference between wearing a mask or not?
If he met him on the street, he would recognize him at a glance!
Divine Doctor Zhao didn’t even look at Ye An. He had already smelled the Soul-Soothing Herb!
He couldn’t help but look around and said impatiently: “Where is the Soul-Soothing Herb?”
“Wait a moment!” Ye An walked into the inner room, carried out a pot of Soul-Soothing Herb, and placed it on the round table.
The unique cedar-like fragrance of the Soul-Soothing Herb in the air became a bit stronger.
Divine Doctor Zhao’s eyes widened!
It was indeed the Soul-Soothing Herb, and the quality of this Soul-Soothing Herb was too good. It was actually a mutated double Soul-Soothing Herb.
In other words, one Soul-Soothing Herb was equivalent to two.
In this way, he could be sure that the other party did have two Soul-Soothing Herbs in their hands.
Prime Minister Liang also smelled it this time. As expected of the Soul-Soothing Herb, just smelling this light fragrance made him feel refreshed.
He couldn’t help but reach out to touch it, but Ye An stretched out his hand to block him: “Look but don’t touch!”
Divine Doctor Zhao said: “This can only be counted as one Soul-Soothing Herb!”
Ye An gave him a cold look: “That’s natural, but my master said that he also wants to see the few divine pills and the Firefly Fruit in Divine Doctor Zhao’s hands. He will only exchange after he confirms that they are real.”
It was naturally no problem to take a look. After seeing this Soul-Soothing Herb, Divine Doctor Zhao had already decided to exchange: “Okay! I have brought them, you can look at them now.”
Ye An shook his head: “My master is still outside. He will look at them when he comes back. If Divine Doctor Zhao wants to exchange, then please wait!”
✿✿✿
Divine Doctor Zhao, who was about to take out the pills: “. . .”
Still have to wait?
How could he wait!
Divine Doctor Zhao blew his beard and glared: “Do you think I would give you fake medicine?”
Prime Minister Liang was anxious when he heard this. If they didn’t exchange it back now, what if Young Divine Doctor Zhao ruined that Heart-Protecting Herb?
He hurriedly said: “Divine Doctor Zhao is famous all over the world, his word is as good as gold! How could he do such a villainous thing? We have already brought the pills, which shows our sincerity, how can you do this!”
Ye An only said: “We naturally believe that Divine Doctor Zhao would not deceive us with fake medicine, but my master wants to see if the divine pills are well preserved and whether they still have medicinal effects. Whether it is worth exchanging for two Soul-Soothing Herbs. After all, the Soul-Soothing Herb is the first of the Four Divine Herbs, even if it is not used as medicine but just kept, smelling its fragrance can calm the mind and soul, prolong life, and increase lifespan.”
Divine Doctor Zhao: “. . .”
Prime Minister Liang: “. . .”
Prime Minister Liang said angrily: “When will your master come back?”
He didn’t expect Chu Tiankuo to come back at all, but now he hoped that he would arrive in the capital tomorrow, no, today, now, immediately.
Ye An: “I don’t know for now, it should be half a month later.”
Although Prime Minister Liang knew it would take at least half a month, he still felt it was late when he heard it: “You must keep this Soul-Soothing Herb well, we will not exchange it if there is any damage.”
Ye An: “Of course, but if Young Divine Doctor Zhao wants to use it for alchemy, I can’t stop him. My master said that everything is up to Young Divine Doctor Zhao.”
After finishing speaking, Ye An stood up and picked up the pot of Soul-Soothing Herb on the table.
Prime Minister Liang: “. . .”
Divine Doctor Zhao couldn’t help but curse: “Nonsense! Such precious medicinal herbs, how can you let a brat mess around! Tell your master, if he wants to refine divine pills, he can give the divine herbs to this old man, this old man will help your master refine them!”
Prime Minister Liang’s heart skipped a beat, that’s right!
Why didn’t he think of that!
Ye An only said: “I will convey Divine Doctor Zhao’s words to my master. Farewell!”
Then he left with the Soul-Soothing Herb!
Divine Doctor Zhao and Prime Minister Liang could only watch him leave.
Divine Doctor Zhao frowned, his heart ached whenever he thought of that Heart-Protecting Herb being ruined.
Prime Minister Liang wanted to send someone to follow Ye An, find his place, and steal the Soul-Soothing Herb and the Heart-Protecting Herb back, but he was worried about being discovered and angering the other party, making them change their mind and no longer exchange.
The most important thing was that the people he arranged to follow Chu Tiankuo had never succeeded once, otherwise he wouldn’t have to worry.

Peach Blossom Village
The Jin Kingdom Emperor frowned when he heard that Divine Doctor Zhao had directly refused. He couldn’t help but glare at Shen Hanyu fiercely: “What’s the point of having you? You can’t even handle such a small matter! You can’t even borrow a few pills to show your Imperial Younger Sister!”
Shen Hanyu was very helpless: “Chu Tiankuo intends to exchange Soul-Soothing Herbs for them, so of course Divine Doctor Zhao wouldn’t lend them to us.”
His daughter finally asked him to do something for her, and he couldn’t even handle such a simple matter. The Jin Kingdom Emperor couldn’t help but say irritably: “Then why don’t you go find a Soul-Soothing Herb?! Why does Chu Tiankuo have the Soul-Soothing Herb, but you don’t? You usually don’t admit that you are inferior to Chu Tiankuo! How could such a capable person like me give birth to such a stupid son?! As expected, only my daughter inherited her father’s intelligence and wisdom!”
Shen Hanyu: “. . .”
Damn it, Chu Tiankuo, don’t even think about marrying my Imperial Younger Sister!
