Chapter 475 - 475 Curing the Fox's Stench 2
475 Curing the Fox’s Stench 2
Zhou Pingan had prepared an additional reward. This was prepared previously. She thought that if she was cured, she would give it to her. If she was not cured, she would not take it out. Now that she no longer smelled strange, she just had to apply medicine according to the requirements in the future, so she took out the medicine she had prepared for Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu looked at the box of golden beads and waved her hand. She smiled and said, “Princess, I’ve already taken the consultation fee. I won’t accept the extra. I wish you a happy life in the future.”
“Princess, please. We’ll go back first.”
Su Xiaolu did not take it, but she was very happy.
With that, Su Xiaolu left with Old Wu.
Zhou Pingan held the box and bowed deeply to Su Xiaolu and Old Wu’s backs. No one knew how difficult her journey was.
Zhou Pingan returned to the main room. She took out the ointment jar and asked Qin Shoucheng to take some in a small box.
“Thank you, Princess.”
Qin Shoucheng thanked her with a smile. After all, he was an imperial physician in the palace. This ointment could remove the smell. Some concubines in the palace could also use it.
He mainly wanted to study the composition of the ointment.
“Imperial Physician Qin, you’re too polite. If you hadn’t recommended me, I wouldn’t have been able to meet the divine doctor.”
Zhou Pingan was grateful. She had used many ointments over the years and they were all developed by Imperial Physician Qin. Now that she had met the divine doctor, it was also because of Imperial Physician Qin. How could she not be grateful?
Qin Shoucheng smiled and waved his hand. “Princess, I’ll take my leave too.”
Qin Shoucheng stood up and prepared to leave.
Zhou Pingan personally sent him off.
At this moment, a man walked over in a hurry.
Qin Shoucheng didn’t look at him. In his opinion, he looked down on a man who was a freeloader.
“Princess, Aunt Wang accidentally fell and affected her fetal stability. Please show mercy and ask Imperial Physician Qin to take a look at her.”
The person who came was none other than Zhou Pingan’s husband, Feng Jing. He begged Zhou Pingan, but his expression was not humble. He looked straight at Zhou Pingan, vaguely looking threatening.
Qin Shoucheng sneered. “Princess, don’t agree to that. I still want my face. There are many good doctors in the capital. Not everyone is qualified to see imperial physicians.”
Qin Shoucheng looked down on Feng Jing and his concubine who played dirty tricks. If he didn’t want to see her, he wouldn’t.
No matter what, he was an imperial physician.
After Qin Shoucheng finished speaking, he left without caring how ugly the expression on Feng Jing’s face looked.
Feng Jing looked at Zhou Pingan and complained, “Princess, are you really that cruel?”
“You have overstepped your boundaries. She’s just a concubine. If she has a miscarriage. Can’t we just find a doctor to take a look?”
Zhou Pingan’s expression was cold. She did not have much feelings for Feng Jing to begin with. It was all because of her pride.
The reason why she tolerated Feng Jing’s domineering attitude was also because of her pride. But now, she did not have to suffer anymore.
Feng Jing left angrily while Zhou Pingan smirked coldly.
He freeloaded her, used her money to support his mistress, and even showed her a cold face. Wasn’t it because he knew that she was sick and couldn’t get married? That was all he relied on.
Now that this no longer existed, what right did he have to be arrogant?
Zhou Pingan returned to the main room and slowly looked at the ledger. Since she wanted to clean it up, she had to do so.

Su Xiaolu and Old Wu went home together.
On the way, Old Wu bought Su Xiaolu candied hawthorns by the roadside.
Su Xiaolu smiled as she ate.
Old Wu said with a gentle expression, “Girl, go out with Master to train in a few days. Now that your brothers have become successful, you don’t have anything to worry about. How about following Master to tour the rivers and mountains? While Master is still young and strong, I can bring you around for a few years.”
Su Xiaolu swallowed the sour and sweet hawthorn in her mouth and said, “Master, I still have something to do. I can’t go for the time being.”
Old Wu looked at Su Xiaolu. “What is it?”
Su Xiaolu thought of Zhou Zhi. Naturally, she would not hide it from Old Wu. She told him in detail what she had promised Zhou Zhi, including how Zhou Zhi had helped her.
Old Wu frowned. “Girl, you… Sigh… Forget it.”
Old Wu wanted to say that even if she treated him as a patient, he might not treat her as a doctor, but after thinking about it, he did not say it. What if it was not like that in the first place? After he said it, Su Xiaolu would think of it.
At least for now, Su Xiaolu only treated Zhou Zhi as a patient.
Su Xiaolu looked over in confusion. “Master, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything else?”
Old Wu coughed lightly and looked ahead. He said, “If I want to say it, I will, if not I won’t. What’s wrong? Do you dare to hit me?”
Su Xiaolu was speechless.
She didn’t dare.
“Then come and find Master after you treat him.”
Old Wu said leisurely with his hands behind his back.
Su Xiaolu agreed happily. “Okay, Master has to write to me often. You wrote too few letters. You should write more.”
“Troublesome.”
Old Wu muttered.
Su Xiaolu smiled. She knew that this meant that he had agreed.
On the way back, Su Xiaolu bought many snacks and naturally did not forget to get wine for her master. Old Wu liked good wine and Su Xiaolu had the intention to do so. The old man was very happy and smiled along the way.
Old Wu came this time to see Su Xiaolu.
Now that the imperial examination had ended, he wanted to bring Su Xiaolu around.
However, Su Xiaolu could not leave for the time being because of Zhou Zhi, so Old Wu and Gui You decided to leave the capital.
However, it was rare for them to meet, so they would stay for a few more days.
Qi Xingfeng came to the Su Residence and was very respectful when he saw Gui You. He blushed and said, “Hello, Senior.”
Gui You glanced at Qi Xingfeng and nodded.
Gui You and Su Chong exchanged blows. Qi Xingfeng’s eyes lit up. Su Xiaolu saw that he was excited and clenched her fists. When Gui You and Su Chong stopped, she smiled evilly and said loudly, “Master Gui You, my cousin wants to learn a few moves from you.”
Gui You glanced at Qi Xingfeng and nodded. “Okay.”
Qi Xingfeng was very excited. Su Chong walked over with a sword and had already handed it to Qi Xingfeng. “Xingfeng, go on.”
Qi Xingfeng took a few deep breaths and walked in front of Gui You. He first bowed and then stabbed with his sword.
He had great strength, but his use of the sword was average. His strength was superior. Every strike had an unstoppable momentum.
Swing, slash, and pick.
After dozens of moves, the sword in Qi Xingfeng’s hand was knocked off. Gui You sighed and said, “You’re suitable to use a saber.”
“Yes.”
Qi Xingfeng’s face turned red, but in the end, it was just these two words. He had many things he wanted to say, but in the end, he held back.
Invisibly, it was as if a shackle had trapped him, making him hold back those long speeches.
Gui You did not say anything else. He pointed his sword at Su Xiaolu. “It’s your turn.”
