Upon hearing the commotion, the servants outside the hall entered the hall and rolled up their sleeves, ready to take Ye Qingtang down.
"Forget it, grandfather." Si Bai stood up suddenly and walked to Ye Qingtang's side. He did not believe that Ye Qingtang was able to treat him at such a young age.
"Si Bai, move away!" Master Si's face darkened quickly.
Si Bai frowned slightly. Looking towards Ye Qingtang, he muttered discreetly, "Lady Ye, I'll send you back." Then, he tried to bring Ye Qingtang away.
However, Ye Qingtang stood still without budging. With a faint smile, she turned to him and shook her head.
Si Bai's eyes were filled with puzzlement. He did not know that the Young Lady of the Ye family was this stubborn.
Given his grandfather's hatred towards the Ye family, it was likely that he would cut Ye Qingtang up. If she did not leave now, she would probably never be able to leave anymore.
As expected, right as Si Bai thought about that fact, Master Si ordered loudly, "Take Ye Qingtang away!"
Upon hearing the commotion, the servants outside the hall entered the hall and rolled up their sleeves, ready to take Ye Qingtang down.
However…
"Wait! Wait! A misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!"
Returning back to his senses after a state of astonishment, Master Physician Xu made a frenzied dash towards the front of Ye Qingtang and shielded her with his shivering hands the moment he saw Master Si ordering people to take her away. He raised the prescription in his hands and looked at Master Si with flustered eyes.
"Master Physician Xu, what are you doing?" Master Si looked confusedly at the man who suddenly came forward to disrupt the scene.
Master Physician Xu was about to cry from anxiety. "Master Si, do not injure Lady Ye! Do not injure her!"
"Why not! Her prescription obviously wants to harm my third…"
"This prescription is real! It can really save the third young master's life!!!" He said hurriedly.
"…" Master Si looked at him unbelievingly. "What did you say?!"
Master Physician Xu let out a deep breath. After sorting out his emotions, he said, "Previously, I told Master that removing the toxin in the third young master was almost impossible. In this world, the only prescription that can completely remove inherited ice toxin can only be found in the Ancient Book of Medicine. However, this book has been missing for a long time, and my master had only been able to obtain fragments of a few pages of the book. A while ago, I noticed that the two prescriptions Lady Ye wrote indeed are targeted towards eliminating the poison within the third young master. With long term medication, the poison can be effectively removed. Although I dare not say that he will be able to enjoy longevity, however, living up to thirty years old is definitely not a problem!"
Master Physician Xu was extremely excited. Never would he have believed that he would see a prescription from the Ancient Book of Medicine from a fifteen-year-old girl.
God knows how precious this book was to all the physicians in the world. Many people had spent their entire lifetime looking for it, yet they were not even able to find any fragments of the book. However, he was able to see it today, in the writing of a young girl!
At this point, Master Physician Xu looked at Ye Qingtang with unparalleled fervor.
Master Si was completely taken aback. Master Physician Xu shared a deep relationship with the Si family, and he was extremely skilled. Naturally, Master Si could believe whatever he said.
Then, Master Si's expression changed slightly.
Si Bai, who was standing aside, froze for a moment. He looked with astonishment at Ye Qingtang, whose expression was calm.
Ye Qingtang flashed him a small smile and stepped forward, facing Master Si.
"Can Master Si trust me now?"
Master Si frowned slightly. He did not know how to react to what just happened.
He initially thought Ye Qingtang was here to seek death, yet who knew…
She really was able to write a lifesaving prescription to cure the toxin.
"Bring some tea for Lady Ye!" said Master Si as he took a deep breath.
Seeing the change of orders from their Master, the servants who were initially in the hall immediately left in dejection. A young male servant who understood what was going on quickly served Ye Qingtang a cup of tea.
"Take a seat." Master Si said while looking at Ye Qingtang. Although his tone was still strict, the words he used were significantly less harsh.
No matter how much he hated the Ye family previously, it was undeniable that Ye Qingtang's prescription could really save Si Bai's life.
Ye Qingtang received the cup of tea. Recognizing the change in Master Si's attitude, she took a seat on a chair beside.
The Ancient Book of Medicine had indeed been lost for a long time. However, three hundred years later in Ye Qingtang's previous life, the book was found. Ye Qingtang had flipped through the entire book, and with her photographic memory, she was able to clearly memorize everything on the book. Although the ice toxin within Si Bai was seen as an incurable disease by current physicians, three hundred years later, it was not a big deal at all.
Si Bai relaxed as well. Looking at how his grandfather's expression changed, he silently chuckled and returned to his seat.
The atmosphere in the hall was very peculiar. As though he had not adjusted to the drastic change of events, Master Si took a few sips of tea silently as he sized Ye Qingtang up with a deep gaze in search of answers.
"Why do you want to save my third grandson?" he finally asked after a while.
"Like fire and water, the Si family has a deep hatred towards the Ye family and can never get along well. As the Young Lady of the Ye family, why do you want to help us, the Si's?" he questioned. While he believed in the authenticity of the prescriptions, he could not guess the reason behind Ye Qingtang's willingness to help the Si family.
Ye Qingtang replied, "The Ye family is no longer the same Ye family as before."
Master Si frowned slightly.
"Master Si should know that my father's health has been deteriorating in recent years. The Great Elder of the Ye family, who has been wanting the family clan master position for a long time, saw this as the opportunity to take over my father's power. Now, my father no longer controls the Ye family, and most of the people in the Ye residence are all on the Great Elder's side. Given the Great Elder's ambition, both my father and I have become a thorn in his flesh and would not hesitate to get rid of us," Ye Qingtang said without hurry. In order for Master Si to let down his guard, she must say the truth, or else she will not be able to reach her objectives given the Si family's hatred towards the Ye's.
After hearing the term "Great Elder of the Ye family," Master Si's frown deepened. It was this Great Elder who Master Si suspected as the culprit behind the poisoning of Si Bai's mother.
"Plotting to murder the family clan master and his successor is a major offense in a family clan. Even if the Great Elder of the Ye family wants to harm you, he needs to act carefully as well. If this news spreads, he will not be able to become the family clan master," said Master Si as he did not easily believe Ye Qingtang's words.
Ye Qingtang chuckled and responded, "If he really wants to harm us, it would be easy, wouldn't it?"
She paused for a moment and continued, "Ye You, a girl from the Ye family and the biological granddaughter of the Great Elder, was accepted into the Yunxiao Sect as an exception several days ago after the Yunxiao Sect Sect Master took a fancy to her. I wonder if you have heard of this?"
