Lucky Farmer Girl: I rely on metaphysics to support my family

Chapter 838 Keep it steady
Tang Wan knew that the War King was worried about her cousin's health. After thinking for a while, she remembered another way and said, "I have another way. I will make a 'Spirit Detection and Tranquility Talisman' to detect whether there is any yin energy or evil spirits in the body. Your cousin will wear it. If he is indeed being afflicted by yin energy, the talisman will gradually change color or heat up to warn him. It can also absorb some yin energy and alleviate the symptoms. This process should be able to tell within an hour at most."

As for how to hand the talisman over to someone else, Tang Wan didn't care; she had already come up with a plan.

This method hasn't been used for a long time, and she hasn't made this talisman in a long time either. She'll have to hurry and make one later.

When the War King heard Tang Wan say this, the weight in his heart finally lifted, so he said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Wan'er. You can start drawing later, and I'll come to get it from you in a bit."

Hearing them say this, Tang Wan shook her head in disapproval. Suddenly remembering that the War King couldn't see, she reminded him, "You don't need to come here yourself. Just have someone come and get it."

After thinking it over, the War King realized that he had come several times and might make Tang Bojun think too much, so he reluctantly agreed to Tang Wan's suggestion.

After ending the call, Tang Wan went directly to the study in the space.

She took out talisman paper and cinnabar, and concentrated on drawing it.

Spirit-detecting talismans were not difficult for her, but since she hadn't drawn one in a long time, Tang Wan was worried that she might make a mistake. She considered it for a moment before putting pen to paper. Spiritual energy flowed from the tip of her pen, and before long, a yellow talisman with its inner spiritual light was completed.

Tang Wan folded the talisman into a triangle and put it into a simple brocade pouch.

About half an hour later, the gatekeeper came to report that someone had arrived from the Prince of Zhan's residence.

Tang Bojun had no idea what the visitor wanted, just as Tang Wan had asked Zhuxi to inform the gatekeeper that someone from the Prince Zhan's residence had come to inform her.

Zhu Xi happened to run into the gatekeeper who had just reported back and was about to invite the people from the Prince of Zhan's mansion in.

Tang Wan received the news and had Zhu Xi send the brocade pouch over, thinking that since the War King hadn't come, she didn't need to go in person.

Zhan Yi came to retrieve the brocade pouch, but Zhan Wang was also outside the mansion.

He didn't show himself in the carriage, fearing it might have a bad influence, but he was in a hurry to get to Princess Changqing's residence, so he came out with Zhan Yi and let him go get the talisman first, while he waited in the carriage.

Zhan Yi took out a brocade pouch and respectfully handed it to Zhan Wang. Zhan Wang put the pouch away and had the carriage drive directly to Princess Changqing's residence.

Princess Changqing was somewhat surprised to hear the news of the War King's visit. She had just met him not long ago, so why was the War King here again?
Princess Changqing feared that something important had happened on the Prince of Zhan's side, so she quickly sent someone to bring him in.

Upon seeing her nephew, Princess Changqing quickly asked, "Is something the matter?"

After bowing, the War King said directly, "Imperial Aunt, I was worried about my cousin's health when I returned home. I wonder what the imperial physicians said?"

He remembered that when he was alive, his aunt sent someone to fetch the imperial physician, but he hadn't seen the physician before he left, and he didn't know what conclusion the physician would reach after examining him.

Hearing the King of War ask this, Princess Changqing sighed and said indifferently, "I have consulted two imperial physicians, both of whom said that I have qi and blood deficiency and have caught a cold. They prescribed a formula to warm and calm the mind, which has already been prepared and taken. As for the effect, I have not seen it. I may need to take it for another two days."

In fact, according to her, her son's symptoms could not be fully explained by "deficiency of both qi and blood" or "catching a cold".

But since the imperial physicians were more authoritative, she had no other choice but to follow their instructions and have the medicine prepared and given to Lan'er.

Upon hearing Princess Changqing's words, the War King knew that Zhao Jinglan's medicine was ineffective and that his illness was likely more serious than ordinary. Without further hesitation, he said, "I didn't mention this to you before, Aunt. The Second Miss Tang grew up in a Taoist temple and is a member of the Xuanmen (Taoist sect). I have personally witnessed her abilities." The War King glanced at Princess Changqing and continued, "I just met with the Second Miss Tang and mentioned Cousin Lan's discomfort. She specially drew a 'Spirit-Detecting and Mind-Calming Talisman,' explaining that if it's just ordinary fatigue, the talisman will have a calming effect; if there are external evil influences, the talisman can also sense and warn you. I was wondering if Cousin Lan could try wearing it now?"

Princess Changqing didn't understand Tang Wan. Of course, few people in the capital really understood Tang Wan, since the original owner of this body had always lived in the mountains and was exiled just a few days after coming down from the mountain.

Those who had a deep impression of her were probably the people she helped during her last trip back to Beijing; they probably still remembered her.

But when Princess Changqing heard what the War King said, she knew that this second young lady of the Tang family must be capable, otherwise the War King would not have praised her so highly. Although she was surprised, Princess Changqing knew the War King and he was not a person who spoke without reason, so she nodded in agreement: "Since you say you want to try, then let's try. I don't think it will have any bad influence on your cousin."

The War King quickly nodded and said cautiously, "I specifically asked, and there are no side effects. I will wait here for a moment to see the effect."

"In that case, come with me to see Lan'er!" Princess Changqing said as she stood up and led the Prince of War toward her son's courtyard.

Princess Changqing led the War King to Zhao Jinglan's courtyard.

Zhao Jinglan was leaning against the couch, his complexion even worse than before, and his spirits were increasingly low. When he saw his mother and cousin, he tried his best to sit up.

Princess Changqing quickly stepped forward and pressed down on her son, saying gently, "Lan'er, lie down quickly."

Then, Princess Changqing extended her hand to the War King, who handed her the prepared brocade pouch.

Princess Changqing held the brocade pouch and said to her son, "This is a calming talisman that your fourth cousin specially obtained for you. It is said to be very effective. You should wear it close to your body."

As she spoke, Princess Changqing personally stuffed the brocade pouch into her son's inner garment and placed it securely against his chest.

Zhao Jinglan felt the brocade pouch was warm to the touch, as if a warm current was seeping into it, which seemed to clear his drowsy mind a little.

He didn't think about it carefully and simply thanked him in a low voice.

The War King carefully observed his cousin's expression. Seeing that he was not uncomfortable, and that his brow seemed to relax a little after the brocade pouch was put into his pocket, the War King felt somewhat relieved.

He did not leave immediately, but accompanied Princess Changqing to the outer room for a chat.

The conversation naturally turned to the preparations for the marriage proposal and some information about Tang Wan.

This conversation gave Princess Changqing a deeper impression of Tang Wan's abilities.

She understood even more clearly that her nephew had not taken a liking to an ordinary young lady, otherwise he would not have cared whether she was a legitimate or illegitimate daughter.

About an hour later, it was getting dark outside the window.

The War King estimated that the time was about right and slowly said, "Aunt, I wonder if Cousin Lan feels any better after wearing the talisman? Why don't we have someone bring the talisman to take a look? The Second Miss of the Tang family said that if someone is being afflicted by external evil spirits, it should be possible to tell within an hour."

Princess Changqing then instructed her maid to inquire.
