Teaser

After carefully examining Tuoba Qing, Zhang Baishu cupped his hands as he said respectfully, “Your Majesty, this isn’t an illness but something caused by this young lady’s special constitution?”
“Oh?” Zhao Fu said in surprise as he asked, “Can you tell what sort of constitution she has?”
Zhang Baishu shook his head and replied, “Your Majesty, this young lady’s constitution is simply too special, and I’m unable to determine anything about it. However, I know the causes of some of her symptoms and some methods for handling them.”
Zhao Fu was slightly disappointed, as he thought that Zhang Baishu would know what her strange constitution was. However, it was good enough that he knew what to do about it, so Zhao Fu asked him about what could be done.
Zhang Baishu explained, “This young lady is like this because she will go through a transformation every year, which requires sustenance from a large amount of Blood-Refining Spirit Medicine. Without Blood-Refining Spirit Medicines, this young lady will be wracked with pain and weakness, but if she has Blood-Refining Spirit Medicines to help her complete the transformation, there will be no problems.”
After hearing Zhang Baishu’s explanation, Zhao Fu understood. He asked what Blood-Refining Spirit Medicines were, and Zhang Baishu explained that they were blood-type spirit medicines, such as Blood Ginseng, Blood Reishi Mushroom, Blood Fleeceflower Root, etc. They could help transform one’s blood and even refine one’s blood.
Zhao Fu currently did not have any Blood-Refining Spirit Medicines, so he ordered his people to go to the main cities to buy some.
Lying on a bed, Tuoba Qing felt quite apologetic as she looked at Zhao Fu. She had not done anything for him, yet she had already brought him so much trouble. When she heard Zhang Baishu’s explanation of Blood Refining Spirit Medicines, she felt that they were definitely more expensive than normal spirit medicines, which were already quite expensive. What’s more, the amount that she needed was great, so it would be an astronomical sum.
Tuoba Qing didn’t want to cause Zhao Fu so much trouble, nor did she want him to give her so much for nothing in return. Because she had no way of repaying him, she said weakly, “Your Majesty, it’s fine; I’ll be alright after enduring it, so there’s no need to waste so much medicine on me!”
Zhao Fu lightly smiled and gave her a reassuring look.
After returning to the Great Qin Town, Zhao Fu no longer wore his black cloak, reducing the feeling of mysteriousness and iciness that had been around him and making him seem more approachable and gentle.
