244 Grandfather and Grandchild Meet
Qin Canglan took the medicine and slept until dawn.
When he woke up, he sat in front of the bed in a daze.
The servant called out twice outside the door, but there was no response.
In the past, at this time, Qin Canglan would have already practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard for a while. The servant was worried. Thinking about how he had slept early last night and how strange it was, one could not help but worry that something had happened to him.
The servant boldly pushed the door open and entered.
“Old Master!”
Qin Canglan came back to his senses. “What is it?”
“Ah, you… you’re fine.” The servant scratched his head in a daze. “You woke up late. I was worried that you… that… pfft, my jinxed mouth!”
The servant smiled awkwardly. “I’ll get the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Are we eating braised noodles or buns this morning?”
Qin Canglan was uninterested. “Anything is fine.”
“Aye, I understand.”
The servant retreated.
“Wait.” Qin Canglan stopped him again.
The servant bowed and said, “Old Master, what can I do for you?”
Qin Canglan said, “Call the Imperial Physician Cen over.”
The servant hurriedly said, “Are you not feeling well?”
Qin Canglan waved his hand. “No, don’t make it public.”
If the children found out, there would be a lot of trouble.
“Yes.”
The servant first went to the kitchen, before personally going to Imperial Physician Cen’s house. His luck was good today. Imperial Physician Cen was not on duty in the palace, so he followed the servant to the residence.
Qin Che went to court.
Qin Yanran went to learn the zither while Qin Yun recuperated in the courtyard.
The residence was quite quiet.
When Imperial Physician Cen entered the room, Qin Canglan had already washed up. He had no appetite, so breakfast was still on the table.
Imperial Physician Cen carried the medicine box in.
Seeing that Qin Canlan’s expression was not right, Imperial Physician Cen asked, “Does your hand hurt again?”
“It’s not my hand.” Qin Canglan frowned, not knowing how to explain.
According to his personality, he would not believe such a strange thing.
But that was Su Huayin…
His fat wife.
Imperial Physician Cen asked in confusion, “Then why did you suddenly ask me to come over…”
“Ahem.” Qin Canglan coughed awkwardly. “I took the painkillers you gave me last night.”
Imperial Physician Cen was very surprised. “You… just took it?”
He had always treated the Old Protector Duke for gout, so he naturally understood how serious the other party’s condition was.
The Old Duke’s hand was not only due to gout, but it was also an accumulated condition. Therefore, ordinary people could not tolerate the pain.
When the Old Duke said that it hurt a little, it was already bone-piercing.
He thought that in ten days at most, the Old Duke would have to take painkillers.
It had been three months…
“Uh… it hasn’t expired, right…” Imperial Physician Cen muttered to himself.
“Does it work?” he asked.
“If you mean pain relief, yes,” Qin Canglan said fairly.
Imperial Physician Cen heaved a sigh of relief.
It had been three months but it had not expired. It seemed that there was no need to throw away the impending painkillers at home…
Qin Canglan asked, “You said last time that there would be side effects if I took those painkillers. You told me to try not to consume it if I could.”
“That’s right,” Imperial Physician Cen said. “Datura was added to the painkillers. The roots of this medicinal herb are poisonous. I didn’t add a high dose, so it won’t cause poisoning, but if it’s taken for a long time, it will cause a certain level of addiction. It’s not a big problem to take a small amount, but it might result in sleepiness. You’ll feel weak and nauseous and lose your appetite.”
Qin Canglan continued, “Other than that, what else?”
“Huh?” Imperial Physician Cen looked at Qin Canglan in confusion.
Qin Canglan cleared his throat. “For example… will you see anything…”
Imperial Physician Cen understood. “Are you referring to an illusion?”
“Ah, I just… had a dream!” Qin Canglan was also in a mess. “I took your painkillers and dreamed at night! I used to… not dream!”
Imperial Physician Cen thought for a moment. “I can’t rule out this possibility. However, what did you dream of?”
“I dreamed of Hua Yin,” Qin Canglan said.
Imperial Physician Cen was stunned.
Imperial Physician Cen had known Qin Canglan for decades and was considered his friend. He knew this name too well.
...
Qin Canglan sighed. “I dreamed that Hua Yin wanted to kill me.”
Imperial Physician Cen did not understand this direction.
Qin Canglan continued, “She even sent me a dream.”
–
After Imperial Physician Cen left, Qin Canglan went to the horse farm.
He got someone to prepare some foal feed.
The servant who raised the horses said, “I’ll send it to your residence later.”
“No need.”
Qin Canglan carried the feed into the carriage and personally went to Pear Blossom Lane.
He came to the door and saw a small child standing behind the threshold, looking out.
