Shen Mohen only returned to his senses after hearing Lan Ruozhu’s words. “Your Majesty.”

Lan Ruozhu waved, saying, “l told you before that you don’t need to call me that. Just call me by my name. We can call each other friends and brothers.” Lan Ruozhu always remembered to be polite to the wise. Because of this, he

recruited some talents in the past three years.

“This is my sister,” he said happily.

Shen Mohen looked at Lan Ruozhu’s expression and thought, ‘Princess Lan has returned.’

Su Binglan noticed Lan Ruozhu calling her his sister and helplessly added,

“Your Majesty acknowledged me as his sister just now.”

Lan Ruozhu emphasized, “I’m not Your Majesty. I’m your brother.”

Su Binglan smiled. “Alright, Brother.” Then she looked at Shen Mohen and said, “Please come in, Doctor Shen. My brother told me he could only survive until now because of your medical skills.”

“B-But I still haven’t found a way to cure him,” Shen Mohen said in shame. He did not decline Su Binglan’s welcome and entered the room. When he saw Su Binglan’s likeness, he knew it was not Princess Lan but another young lady instead.

However, she seemed amicable and comforting. Shen Mohen thought it was bizarre, Moreover, he felt a sense of familiarity when he saw Su Binglan’s appearance.

Still, the person he was looking for was his aunt, his father’s sister, not the young lady before him. Besides, he could not just look at someone and think they were related to his aunt.

After Shen Mohen entered the room, Su Binglan started discussing medicine with him. The more he heard, the more shocked he became. He felt the young lady in front of him seemed more skilled than his master regarding medicine.

Shen Mohen thought the young lady was unlike the girls in the village. Whether it was her knowledge or temperament, Su Binglan seemed to have come from a big family.

‘No wonder the King was so happy when he recognized her as his sister.’

Shen Mohen checked Lan Ruozhu’s pulse and was shocked again. “Y-Your Majesty, you… You seem much better now. Your pulse has stabilized, and your body is much stronger.”

He was in disbelief. ‘The King knows how severe his condition is. I think he has recovered more than halfway in an instant. Yes, that’s it!’

Then Shen Mohen rechecked Lan Ruozhu’s pulse to ensure he had not made a mistake.

Su Binglan said, “l used acupuncture and herbal medicine to help my brother, so his pulse should be stable now.”

“Acupuncture?” Shen Mohen suspected he had misheard the young lady’s words. “Miss Su, are you sure you’re talking about acupuncture? Isn’t it a lost

Su Binglan was stunned. She recalled Doctor Wu saying that acupuncture came from the Legendary Medicine Valley. She blinked and asked, “Don’t the

people from the Legendary Medicine Valley know about acupuncture?”

Shen Mohen said excitedly, “Truthfully, my master said we used to have acupuncture. Our first ancestor left us that knowledge. Some said the valleys first ancestor resembled a fairy that knew much about medicine.

“Our ancestors passed down that knowledge for hundreds of years, but the valley caught fire once, burning most of our precious books. That’s how we lost the acupuncture materials.

“Now, the people of the valley no longer know how to perform acupuncture. It only exists in legends. My master had seen an acupuncture diagram our ancestors drew when they were young.”

A light flashed in Su Binglan’s mind when she heard Shen Mohen’s words. However, the light was too fast, and she thought nothing of it. She said, “l have an acupuncture diagram here. You can bring it back to the valley.”

She was not stingy toward those who helped her brother. She had placed the diagrams in her pocket dimension, which she had used to teach Su Wenxiu. She also drew a few more to teach her apprentices, so she could give them to

Shen Mohen now.

He excitedly stood up. “I-Is this possible, Miss Su?”

These were precious items to him. He could not believe Su Binglan would give them to him without hesitation.

Su Binglan said, “Of course. We can learn and teach each other. I can also tell you whatever you want to know.”

Shen Mohen was too excited. “I’ll take it back and cherish it. My master will be thrilled to see it.’

The diagram contained detailed acupuncture points of the human anatomy. Su Binglan had drawn every detail clearly. Shen Mohen could not wait to return to the valley to tell his master about it. Still, he was worried about Lan Ruozhu’s physical condition.

Lan Ruozhu understood Shen Mohen’s gaze and said, “You mentioned returning to the valley to see your master. I came here and asked you to follow me. You no longer have to worry about my health since my sister is here.”

Shen Mohen knew Su Binglan’s medical skills were beyond his through this exchange. There should not be any significant problems with her around to nurse Lan Ruozhu.

‘Perhaps the King can finally recover. Yes, that’s what I believe.’ Shen Mohen was too excited and immediately prepared to leave for the Legendary Medicine Valley.

Su Binglan noticed it was getting late and figured she should go home. Otherwise, her parents and brothers would be worried.

Lan Ruozhu looked downcast when he heard she was heading home. However, he knew she had done too much for him in the past. Hence, he should not let her worry about him in everything she did.

He tried to control his emotions and smiled. After all, he only wanted his sister to be happy.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan noticed his expression. After all, she had grown up with him while living as Lan Ruobing. After some thought, she asked, “Brother, do you want to come with me?”

Her family’s house was big and had many empty courtyards and rooms. Lan Ruozhu could comfortably stay there if he went with her.

He was excited when he heard Su Binglan’s offer. The dull look on his face disappeared, and he looked more lively.

“Won’t I trouble your family by showing up so suddenly?”

“It’ll be okay. We have lots of room at my house.” Su Binglan’s heart felt warm when she thought of her current parents and brothers. They always supported whatever she did.

Soon after, Su Binglan brought King Lan Ruozhu to Su Teng Village. They kept a low profile along the way. Even Lan Ruozhu used an ordinary carriage. Nonetheless, the Shadow Guards remained in the dark, protecting their master. Only Blue Eagle remained by Lan Ruozhu’s side.

It was very late when they arrived at the village. The villagers had already repaired some collapsed houses, and everyone returned to sleep. Only sporadic lights were visible around the village, including those in the tofu factory. The night shift workers were still busy during that time.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan noticed the lights in her home were still on. Her family was waiting for her to return..
