Chapter 45: Tai Yi’s Divine Needles

The old housekeeper came back in with a strange expression, “Young miss Ye, this Doctor Zhou could be considered a first grade alchemist.  This is a person that can’t be offended.”

Ye Yu Xi looked over at the old housekeeper, “A first grade alchemist, you think I’m afraid?”

The old housekeeper suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was not just Ye Yu Xie, but also the mysterious master behind her!

“Prepare a bucket of hot water, a bowl of wine, and a packet of silver needles.”  Ye Yu Xi looked at the City Lord’s wife’s face. Her face was completely red with a trace of blue and purple.  It was clear she was poisoned and wasn’t ill.

Although the old housekeeper wondered why Ye Yu Xi had him bring needles over, he still obediently brought them.

“Prepare a bucket of hot water, a bowl of wine, and a packet of silver needles.”  Ye Yu Xi looked at the City Lord’s wife’s face. Her face was completely red with a trace of blue and purple.  It was clear she was poisoned and wasn’t ill.

Although the old housekeeper wondered why Ye Yu Xi had him bring needles over, he still obediently brought them.

Qing’er stood on the side and looked around the room.  She said to Ye Yu Xi, “Young miss, isn’t the place the City Lord’s wife living in too shabby?  Reasonably speaking, shouldn’t she be living in the City Lord’s palace?”

The old housekeeper walked in with the items and heard Qing’er speaking.

He gave a faint sigh, “The City Lord and his wife both became sick a year ago, so the City Lord’s concubine grabbed control of the authority at that time.  That Yang Wei who was just here is the City Lord’s concubine’s son. Although it seems like City Lord Yang controls the City Lord’s palace, it’s actually in the hands of the City Lord’s concubine.  The large and small matters of the palace are all decided by her. My family’s madame…..Ai.”

“City Lord Yang pampers his concubine this much?”  Ye Yu Xi raised a silver needle while rubbing the City Lord’s wife’s arm with wine.

“A few years ago, City Lord Yang adjusted the relationship between the two of them, but since the City Lord was sick a year ago, it’s unknown what magical medicine the concubine has fed him to make him so obedient.  My madame was chased out of the City Lord’s palace just a few months ago and this current Silent House’s yard was left behind by the madame’s ancestors.” The old housekeeper remembered these things and his eyes were filled with unwillingness.

When the silver needle in Ye Yu Xi’s hand was about to fall, the old housekeeper spoke up in shock.

“Young miss Ye, what are you doing!”  The old housekeeper had lived for many years, but he had never heard of using silver needles to cure illnesses!

“Be quiet if you want to save your madame.”  Ye Yu Xi glanced over at the old housekeeper.  In this world, doctors only prescribed medicine to match symptoms, they did not use acupuncture.  Ye Yu Xi was currently using the Tai Yi’s Divine Needles of the three great needle arts she had learned on earth!

In front of the old housekeeper’s worried eyes, the silver needle in Ye Yu Xi’s hand fell down into several acupuncture points while her hand was slightly twisting the silver needle.

“Ke, ke!”

The unconscious madame lying on the bed suddenly began to cough.  She suddenly turned over and spat out a mouthful of purple coloured poisoned blood.

Spitting out a mouthful of poison blood, the City Lord’s wife’s face turned pale white as she fainted on the bed again.  Her breathing was much more smoother compared to before.

“Madame!”  The old housekeeper saw his madame suddenly spit out a mouthful of poisoned blood and his fae filled with worry.  He went forward to look, but Ye Yu Xi reached out to stop him.

“Your family’s madame just needs rest in peace for two days.  After two days, come to my place for an Origin Returning Pill and your madame’s illness will be pretty much cured.”

The old housekeeper saw the madame’s face turning from purplish red to pale white and he kneeled down on the floor, “Young miss Ye, I represent my family’s madame to kowtow to you.  Thank you young miss for the grat.i.tude of saving a life!”

While the old housekeeper was thanking them, Ye Yu Xi and Qing’er left.

When they arrived on the street, Qing’er skipped up beside Ye Yu Xi.

“Young miss, when did you learn medicine?”  Qing’er felt that after the young miss returned a few nights back, she had turned into a completely new person.

Ye Yu Xi kept walking forward, “You shouldn’t ask what you shouldn’t know.”

“Oh.”  Qing’er was well behaved and didn’t ask Ye Yu Xi this again after this time.

When the two of them arrived at their yard, as soon as they walked in, they saw Ye Wen and Ye Man kneeling inside the yard.

“What is going on?”  Ye Yu Xi knit her brows.  Ye Wen and Ye Man’s expression weren’t right!

“Young miss, we did something wrong.  We ask the young miss to punish us.”
