Rebirth of Poisoned Empress, by 颜若优雅

Chapter 63

It proved to be difficult to calm the excited Murong Family down. When they were finally able to stabilize their emotions, an hour had already passed. 

"Young Master Shen, how can the poison of Duoqing be extrapolated and cured?" After his emotions stabilized, Murong Hai finally thought of to ask the important questions: "Since Young Master Shen knows about my wife being poisoned, then I imagine you must know that nature of the poison as well. I will not lie to you. In the past three years, I have asked around and sought help from all of the famous physicians the Imperial City has to offer. They all said the poison is incurable. How much certainty does Young Master Shen hold? I am afraid this matter cannot be delayed any further."

"The reason why they cannot cure the poison of Duoqing is because they lack one crucial element," Shen Liang saw how even mentioning the matter proved difficult for Muong Hai and didn't bother leading him on, "Duoqing poison is a toxin that curbs lovers. If the person never fell in love with another, the toxin wouldn't even affect the person's body, much less prove fatal. When most people attempt to cure a poison, they start with the person poisoned. There isn't anything wrong about that. But they have neglected to consider for toxins that curb love, then both the victim and his lover have to be detoxified. No one can fall in love by themselves. Hence, the most crucial ingredient in the antidote is the fresh blood of the person the victim loves."

In terms of medicine, She Liang did not dare to say he was a master. But in terms of poison, Shen Liang dared to say he was unparalleled in this world. In his previous life, although he rarely utilized poison, he never gave up his research on it. In the past few days, he had worked intensively on researching the nature of Duoqing poison. He had concocted hundreds and thousands of mixtures for the best antidote. As long as there were no other mishaps, then it should successfully curb Murong Hai's poison.

"Then the prescription?" Shen Liang's words sounded reasonable, but Murong Hai and his family found themselves unable to completely comprehend. However, Shen Liang was the only person who even dared to say the Duoqing poison can be cured. Regardless of whether it would work, they had to give it a try. Even if in the end, they couldn't save Murong Yun, they will still remember his attempts.

"Just comply to this list. The portions should not tolerate even the slightest inconsistency. There's no need to simmer it. Simply grind it into powder with honey and make it into a pill. That will suffice," Shen Liang had already prepared the prescription and handed it over to Murong Hai.

"Alright," Murong Yu accepted the list and did not dare delay any longer. He immediately turned to leave the room.

Shen Liang continued to inquire, "Is there a trustworthy physician in the manor? Acupuncture must accompany the treatment for the remnants of the poison. For the following half a month, acupuncture will be necessary every day to force out the poison. If there's a physician, please invite him over. I'll teach him the skills and leave the acupuncture to him in the future."

Murong Yun had been suffering from the Duoqing poison for three years now. In these three years, he continued to interact with Murong Hai, allowing the poison to course freely through his arteries and veins. There was simply no way the poison could be extrapolated all at once.

"Yes, An'er, invite Physician Yang over."

"Yes."

Hearing Shen Liang's words, Murong Hai immediately ordered his second son to call their family physician over. Murong An left in compliance. All of them were eager for Murong Yun's full recovery.

"That is it. Afterwards, the prescription to help the madame with subsequent recuperation will require us to wait until the Duoqing poison has been completely eradicated first."
