Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 794

Chapter 794: Chapter 791: Imminent Danger_1

Bai Qingyan’s eyebrows carried a smile, her enunciation was clear, and she spoke slowly and methodically, her words exuding the majesty and prowess of someone in a high position.

Lin Kangle suddenly realized, turning his head to look at Wang Xiping.

"But... what if the people of Liang didn’t know that the Emperor of Liang had already obtained the prescription?" Lin Kangle asked.

"What if the people of Liang didn’t know that the Emperor prioritized the medicine for the frontline soldiers, ignoring their lives?" Wang Xiping also asked.

"So, my eldest sister had already sent Zhao Ran to get the road pass of the merchant. After our people entered Liuzhou City, under the pretext that all subordinate plague victims died, they recruited people with high wages, carrying goods... all the way to Hancheng, the capital of Liang. Naturally... our people would definitely bring the people of Liuzhou, spreading the news along the way that Jin had given the prescription for curing the plague to the defender of Liuzhou City, Yang Wuce. They would also tell everyone that it was the Jin Army that saved the lives of those people from Liuzhou who were abandoned in the Taoist Temple and left for dead."

Bai Jinzhi placed her hands behind her back, speaking with pride and a bit of smugness. Her elder sister always had a backup plan. It wasn’t as simple as what Lin Kangle and Wang Xiping saw.

"Back then, when Yan recaptured Nanyan, wasn’t it because the people knew that it would be beneficial for them if Yan recaptured Nanyan? So the recapture of Nanyan went so smoothly! Now my elder sister is doing the same for the same reason!" Bai Jinzhi smiled at Bai Qingyan and then said to Wang Xiping and Lin Kangle, "Throw the prescription to the Emperor of Liang. How do you think the Emperor of Liang and the Imperial Court of Liang will choose?"

Bai Jinzhi picked up the geographical records in front of her and pointed: "After all, among the herbs needed to treat this plague, there is one indispensable Chinese herb, Baikal skullcap... Jin, Yan, Rong, and Xiliang all have it, but... it’s rare in both Liang and Wei!"

"Our Jin... is at war with Liang, and the epidemic in our country has not been completely cured! So we won’t give Baikal skullcap to Liang!"

After putting down the geographical records, Bai Jinzhi continued, "In the beginning, Liang wanted to join forces with Wei to attack Yan. Even if Yan was willing to sell Baikal skullcap to Liang, it would probably be at an exorbitant price and not in large quantities! Also, as for Rong... now Nanrong is being beaten by Beirong, and they have asked Liang for help several times, but Liang has never sent troops. At this critical moment, if the Liang Dynasty wants Baikal skullcap from Beirong, will Beirong choke Liang... and demand Liang to send troops to help Beirong?"

Lin Kangle and Wang Xiping suddenly realized, especially Lin Kangle, who hurriedly stood up and bowed to Bai Qingyan: "Princess of Zhen has thought through everything thoroughly! I was out of line!"

"Both generals are working for Jin. No need to talk about impropriety." Bai Qingyan said with a faint smile.

Physicians in Liuzhou City had already examined the recovered people who returned to the city. Those who took the medicine from Jin indeed recovered, but some of the herbs in the prescription sent by the physicians outside the city were very expensive. Especially Baikal skullcap, which was indeed troublesome. Baikal skullcap was essential for treating the plague, but Liang lacked it in abundance and had to buy it from other countries.

After obtaining the prescription brought back by Yang Wuce, the physicians in Liuzhou City repeatedly discussed and found that this prescription might have been modified. Two extremely expensive herbs were replaced with common ones, but astragalus was still in the prescription.

After trying the new prescription on patients for three days, the physicians found it effective and stated that this new prescription significantly reduced the cost of treating the plague.

Yang Wuce hurriedly wrote a memorial, vaguely describing Zhao Sheng’s treachery and mainly writing about Zhao Sheng giving him the prescription. He then sent the prescription to Hancheng by fast horse.

After sending the prescription to Hancheng, Yang Wuce couldn’t help but recall Zhao Sheng’s words...
