Yun Shang nodded, "the Seven-day Drunk makes one look like drunk in the following seven days. What people do is completely different after getting drunk. Some people will cry, some will laugh, and some will gossip. So we don't know what happened that day in the woman's room. Is Wang Jinhuan the real killer or not?"
"Things are really troublesome." Luo Qingyan smiled coldly.
"I'll go to the pharmacy tomorrow. The Seven-day Drunk is not common to buy, and the medicines are of complex effect. The one who drugged him may not know that we know about it, maybe they will not be wary of it. Maybe they just found a pharmacy to buy some. Maybe we will find some clues there." Yun Shang comforted him softly.
Luo Qingyan stood up with Yun Shang, "it's late. Go to bed early."
The next morning, when Yun Shang woke up, Luo Qingyan was no longer in the room. Qian Yin was tidying up the cupboard. Looking at her working with only one hand, Yun Shang felt a slight pain in her heart. She sat up and whispered, "Qian Yin."
Qian Yin walked to Yun Shang's bed and said with a smile, "Your Highness is awake."
Yun Shang replied, "I need to go out now. Go and get the carriage ready."
Qian Yin hurriedly nodded, turned around and left the room. Yun Shang got up from the bed, put on a black dress, washed herself, and tied up her hair.
When Qian Yin came in again, a maid followed behind her. She was holding a plate, on which placed some cakes and a bowl of porridge. "Your Highness, please have something to eat first."
Yun Shang walked to the table and sat down. "When did he leave? Has he had meal? "
Qian Yin replied promptly, "It has been two hours. And his highness has eaten."
Yun Shang felt a little more relieved. She ate some food in a hurry and went out of the inn, heading for the biggest pharmacy in the city.
"Sir, do you have any of these herbs?" Yun Shang took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to the pharmacist. The list was all the herbs for making the Seven-day Drunk.
The shopkeeper took the prescription from Yun Shang's hand. He stared at it for a while and said, "the other two herbs, we don't have
Yun Shang.
Yun Shang thanked the man in white again and left the pharmacy.
When they arrived at the previous pharmacy, the waiter had packed all the medicine and handed it to Yun Shang. Yun Shang took it, thought for a moment, and then showed the painting of the woman in white in front of the shopkeeper, "Sir, have a look, is this the girl who bought these things the other day?"
The attendant beside him came over with another prescription and said to the shopkeeper, "Sir, that guest wants to prevent dead bodies from rotting. Check the prescription I wrote. Is it correct?"
"Please wait a moment," the shopkeeper said to Yun Shang and then took over the prescription, "The aphrodisiac, ginger, Chinese parasol and thatches. Yes, that's right. Tell the guest that he'd better buy some peppers as well. "
The attendant said yes and left.
Yun Shang was stunned. These medicinal herbs...
The shop owner got close and nodded his head, "yes, you're right. It's her."
Yun Shang put away the painting in a hurry and asked, "Sir, what do you use, aphrodisiac, ginger, Chinese parasol, thatches and peppers for?"
The owner was stunned for a moment and smiled, "to prevent dead bodies from rotting. Normally, the dead people have to wait at home for at least three to seven days before the funeral. It's hot and the dead body may decay, so many people buy some fragrances and herbs to prevent dead bodies from rotting."
