I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 93 Entering the Poison Valley

Seeing Mo Ruyu looking at herself with a probing gaze that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, the indifferent smile on Qu Lingxu's face gradually froze, "So what if I understand, I'm a generation of girls, and I should not go out of the door. , Some time ago, I rescued a few patients casually, and I have been criticized by others, saying that I am disrespectful to show my face at will." Speaking of this, Qu Lingxu's lips curled into a helpless smile, shook his head and sighed: "It takes a lot of money to save lives and heal the wounded. Bearing this kind of criticism, if I want to set up a special medical center to promote smallpox vaccines all over the country, those people with ulterior motives don't know how many ugly things they will say, and the emperor may also suspect that I am seeking personal gain."

Mo Ruyu is such a smart person. Hearing this, he was sure that Qu Lingxu wanted to cooperate with him, so he took a sip of tea and said casually: "Although the Dugu Sect is not a famous sect, it is a leader in Jianghu. It's a bit thin-skinned to some extent, and it's not difficult to help the princess open a few hospitals in various places, but unfortunately... this young master is very busy, and I really don't have the skills to do it all." After finishing speaking, he shook his head dejectedly .

……

Come on.

Looking at Mo Ruyu's exquisite and unparalleled face, Qu Lingxu didn't show the slightest bit of anger, but smiled slowly, "Since this is the case, I don't want to embarrass the young master. I plan to take [-]% of the hospital's shares as a counterweight, and I think I can find a suitable partner soon, don't you think so?"

This world lacks everything, but there is no shortage of people who want to make money. Mo Ruyu wants to play 'reserved' with her?
hehe.

"Thirty percent, the princess is too stingy." Mo Ruyu knew very well how much wealth was hidden behind that small bag of powder, how could he really give up such a once-in-a-lifetime cooperation opportunity.

Although his Dugu faction is not short of money at all, but no one thinks there is too much money, right?

"You don't have to worry about building a medical clinic and making medicines. You only need to be famous, and you can get [-]% of the profits. Such a good thing with huge profits, you still call me stingy, it's really sad "Although he said so, Qu Lingxu's bright eyes did not show any sadness, but smiled brightly.

"Really?" Mo Ruyu leaned on the imperial concubine's couch, propped his forehead with his hands, and said with a lazy smile, "There are so many people flocking to such a good thing, why does the princess have to cooperate with this young master?"

"If we want to cooperate, we must find a strong partner. Looking at the whole world, who is more suitable than Young Master Mo?" Qu Lingxu flicked his finger painted with transparent Dan Kou, and smiled lightly.

Those who are in politics are not allowed to engage in business at the same time. This has been a practice since ancient times. Although Qu Lingxu does not have any official position, she is the princess who was appointed by the emperor. She is already at the center of the court. The emperor will never allow her to open a hospital. As for Leng Yuanxun, let alone, even if they find someone to manage it on their behalf, but the people in the capital are full of miscellaneous eyes and various forces are intertwined, it is hard to guarantee that there will be a day when Dong Chuang's incident will happen, it is better to hand over this 'hot potato' to Mo Ruyu , with the Dugu faction's power in the arena, absolutely no one would dare to make trouble.

Of course, if Qu Lingxu can generously distribute [-]% of the shares to Mo Ruyu, he will never let him sit at home and count his money easily. It is true that a lot of manpower and material resources are required to open a hospital, but this is not the most Most importantly, the most important thing is to have a large number of doctors with superb medical skills. To study medicine is like practicing martial arts. It requires a solid foundation. It is difficult to find a group of loyal and talented talents in a short period of time, but for Mo Ruyu, it is a breeze.

Yes, Medicine Valley.

The people of Medicine Valley have been researching medicines for generations, and the Baoling Snake Grass in the valley is worth tens of thousands of gold. According to legend, it has the miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life.Although Qu Lingxu didn't believe in any nonsense about bringing the dead back to life, he would not underestimate Yaogu's strength. With their help, the plan to open a hospital would be half successful.

"The princess has a very good vision, is it just this sincerity..." Mo Ruyu pondered for a while, and was about to get [-]% more profit for herself, when the white-clothed waiter who was sent out to test the medicine stepped in first, whispering in Mo Ruyu's ear. Whispered a few words.

Mo Ruyu's meticulously drawn Yuanshan's black eyebrows raised slightly, and he waved his hand to signal the waiter to back down. Then he smiled lightly and looked at Qu Lingxu, "The princess's medicine is a bit interesting."

"Young master, I'm honored." Qu Lingxu returned a faint smile, and said unhurriedly: "If I guessed correctly, your lord will definitely not just find one person to test the poison, and the result of the test is that someone died. If someone is not dead, the seniors of Medicine Valley will naturally try to save the person who is not dead, but they have no clue."

?The white powder that Qu Lingxu gave Mo Ruyu was none other than potassium cyanide, which is discolored by smelling it. Potassium cyanide is highly poisonous. As long as it touches skin wounds or inhales a small amount of powder, it will cause heart failure immediately. Death is a common murder weapon in detective novels.

However, as long as people come into contact with potassium cyanide, will they be poisoned and die?
From the perspective of normal cognition, the answer is undoubtedly yes, but the fact is not always the case. Anyone who wants to use drugs to kill people must reach a sufficient dose. The reason why potassium cyanide is highly toxic is because it only requires A very small dose can kill a person, not regardless of dose.

The medicinal powder that Qu Lingxu gave Mo Ruyu controlled the dose just right, it was enough to poison one or two people, but it was absolutely impossible to poison three people at the same time.

The medicine was given by Qu Lingxu, and Mo Ruyu didn't think it was strange that she could guess the situation of the test medicine, but just sighed softly: "It seems that the princess' medicine is not a hundred-test medicine, what a pity." Most of the main ingredients of ancient poisons were lead and mercury. Even though Mo Ruyu was well-informed, he still didn't know what potassium cyanide was. He thought it was more powerful than ordinary poisons.

"How could it be?" Facing Mo Ruyu's playful eyes, Qu Lingxu shook his head as if belatedly aware, and continued: "I'm sorry for not explaining clearly to the young master, the inhalation of this medicine powder is not enough, and it is true that it cannot be taken immediately. If you die, you will have difficulty breathing, your whole body will convulse, and you will suffer a lot of pain. If there is no one to rescue you during this period, you will die in the end."

"Princess, would you like to follow me to the prison in Poison Valley?" Although Qu Lingxu didn't say it clearly, with Mo Ruyu's intelligence, how could he not understand that the other party has a way to detoxify.

"The young master invites you so kindly, how can I refuse." Qu Lingxu wanted to get Mo Ruyu's approval in the shortest possible time, so he readily agreed.

The location of the Poison Valley is so hidden that ordinary people are not allowed to enter. Qu Lingxu had no intention of prying into the privacy of the Dugu faction, and took the initiative to take a brocade handkerchief from the waiter in white to cover his eyes, and said lightly: "Young master, please lead the way." .”

"The princess is so courageous." Mo Ruyu did not expect Qu Lingxu to be so knowledgeable, and his affection for her deepened. He clapped his hands lightly, and immediately a waiter brought a soft sedan over, waiting for Qu Lingxu After sitting firmly, he soared into the sky and galloped towards a certain direction in the mountains like flying through the clouds.

After flying like this for about a stick of incense, the soft sedan landed steadily on the ground. A waiter lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and said respectfully: "Miss, the Poison Valley is here, please get off the sedan chair."

Qu Lingxu reached out his hand to take off the brocade handkerchief covering his eyes, and leaned out of the soft sedan chair. In front of him was a very quiet valley. There were streams flowing slowly all around, forming a pool, shining in the golden sunlight. Shrouded in mist, the pool water quietly reflects the shadow of the sky. Occasionally, a gust of breeze blows through, breaking the mirror-like water surface, and then there are layers of weak waves rippling.

Such a beautiful valley has nothing to do with "poison".

After simply looking at the surrounding environment, Qu Lingxu asked, "Where is your young master?" She had seen Mo Ruyu's lightness kung fu before, so she shouldn't be slower than these waiters.

Hearing this, the waiter said respectfully: "Reporting to miss, the young master suddenly has some urgent business to deal with, so he will come later, please also ask the miss to go down with his subordinates to meet the elder of Poison Valley."

business?

Don't you just want to see how she competes with those old antiques in Poison Valley and Medicine Valley?
Mo Ruyu's little thoughtfulness, how could he hide it from her.

Qu Lingxu rolled his eyes in contempt, but nodded calmly, "Lead the way."

"Miss, please."

Qu Lingxu followed the waiter, and slowly entered from a small path by the pool that only accommodated one person. He thought that he would have to trek a lot, but after walking for a while, the surroundings gradually opened up, which corresponded to the story of Peach Blossom Spring. The sentence in it is, "Go back dozens of steps, and suddenly see the light." '

Not far along the road, a wooden palace-style building came into view. Although the palace was not as magnificent as the buildings in the palace, it was more exquisite. What surprised Qu Lingxu was that this pure wooden palace There are actually seven floors, which was simply impossible in ancient times when construction technology was relatively backward.

It seems that the Dugu faction has not only reached the pinnacle of 'poison', 'medicine' and five elements and eight trigrams, but also has excellent architectural talents... This time, she really came to the right place.

The impact of this wooden building on Qu Lingxu was so great that when he came back to his senses again, he had already arrived downstairs. Along the way, he saw waiters in gray gauze coming and going from time to time, but these Without exception, everyone was expressionless, even if they saw themselves as the 'intruder', they would turn a blind eye.

Qu Lingxu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart. Birds of a feather flock together. To be able to train such a group of subordinates, the elder Poison Valley's temper is probably very weird.

Thinking like this, the person has already climbed the steps, the white-clothed waiter who led Qu Lingxu came over took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to the gray-clothed waiter who guarded the gate, and said lightly: "Young master ordered me to take Miss Qu to see Shi Elder, please inform me."
