“What happened to me yesterday, I'm sure Princess Baili knows the details well. Aren't they the ones Princess Baili knew?”
Zhao Jun's reply managed to leave Princess Baili speechless for a moment.
Rarely did he lose talking to others until speechless because confused about how to reply. Luckily the doctor came out. So, no one knew of Princess Baili's rare moment other than Zhao Jun.
However, Zhao Jun himself did not really care about Princess Baili's reaction. Because according to him, it is not an important thing to care about further. He also did not mind to continue his remarks, giving a little ‘face’ for Princess Baili.
“As Princess Baili saw, they attacked me yesterday in groups. Saying that I am a vagrant beggar of the Nan Empire who must be immediately expelled from here.”
Princess Baili who heard this, widened her two eyes in shock. “APA?!”
“Omong empty what do they say?! There's never been anything like that! Anyone who came to the Bei Empire was always welcome to enter or settle down. Especially if it was a person from the Nan Empire!”
Zhao Jun casually glanced at him. “Only, those who attacked me yesterday, said so. I'm not lying at all, because it's of no use to me.”
Before Princess Baili interrupted him again, Zhao Jun spoke again. “Don't Princess Baili think, I didn't try to fight or try to explain the intent of my arrival here to them.”
“All I've done my best. But they all don't want to hear me at all. Instead of hearing, they actually increasingly berated and scolded me all-out because I did not accept my carrying your name.”
“And in the end, they instantly ganged on me and destroyed all the items I had, as well as the medicinal ingredients I had just bought from the merchant there. Everything is ruined and my money is now up.”
Princess Baili really could not say a word. He was too shocked by the actions of his father's Divine Medicine Palace disciples who had crossed that line.
“Then, that rare medicinal ingredient problem you made? How are you gonna explain it? Do you know what those medicinal ingredients are?”
Zhao Jun nodded. “Of course I know. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bought it. All of it is the ingredients to make Bone and Blood Cleansing Pills.”
Princess Baili's pair of resolutely beautiful eyes perfectly rounded at Zhao Jun's reply.
“KAU!” he exclaimed as he pointed at Zhao Jun's face using his index finger. “You really know about Bone and Blood Cleansing Pills?!”
“How and where did you find out? Who exactly are you?! Why do you even understand pills whose category is high-level pills?! The disciples of the Divine Medicine Palace alone had not been taught about the composition of this pill!”
Zhao Jun did not answer him directly. He observed Princess Baili's expression and gaze fixedly, before finally letting out a long sigh.
He knew very well that with her intelligence and how critical Princess Baili's thinking toward something, despite all of her arrogant and arrogant disposition, it would be difficult for Zhao Jun to lie before her.
If he wants to find an excuse, he must make sure that it is a concrete reason and cannot be sought again. Merely, what kind of reason should he say?
“Zhao Jun! The more you shut up, the more suspicious you become! Remember that ever since I met you that first time, I've suspected you!”
Zhao Jun did not reply. He simply turned around and sat down on the cot that he had previously used to lie down for a full night.
“Baili's daughter deserves to suspect me. But all your suspicions are unfounded at all. For I am just a young man living a kara in a village located on the outskirts of the forest of the Nan Empire.”
Zhao Jun went on to explain that he knew such things because he had met the late Physician Genius Zhao when he came to the village to tour while treating the sick.
And from there, his interest grew. Several times he met with Physician Genius Zhao and asked many questions about the science of medicine. In the end, Physician Genius Zhao gave him a book containing medical records and some prescription drugs as well as pills.
But of course, all of that was just an empty wreath from Zhao Jun for Princess Baili. At least in this way, Princess Baili would not be able to search and prove the truth since Physician Genius Zhao was dead.
“Really? Where is the book now?” princess Baili asked directly after Zhao Jun finished speaking.
“The book is a secret book belonging to the late Physician Genius Zhao that was given to me. His presence, only I know. And outsiders have no right to know.”
“KAU!”
Unfortunately, Zhao Jun remained unmoved in place with a flat expression, no matter how Princess Baili glared at him so fiercely.
“HUH!”
In the end, Princess Baili snorted loudly, then turned to her back to Zhao Jun. His expression was bent and the look in his eyes was filled with such a clear ray of vexation.
“Already! If you really don't want to tell me the book you got from Physician Genius Zhao, I won't force.”
Zhao Jun slightly poked his lips. “Indeed it should be.”
Princess Baili turned around again to face Zhao Jun. This time, both of his eyes were sharp. “Although that's the case, I still can't shake my suspicion of you, Zhao Jun!”
“That's your right, Princess,” reply Zhao Jun indifferently.
“You! Tell me, why are you sick and living so hard? Moreover, you also have a very pale face like a dying person every time!”
“If it's true that Physician Genius Zhao is the one who gave you that medicine book, then he should be able to make you medicine to cure you!”
“Isn't your goal to buy materials to make those Bone and Blood Cleansing Pills for your own use? Did you clear your bones as well as your meridian points of poison?”
Zhao Jun sighed inwardly. He had guessed all that. Princess Baili was too critical and was good at analyzing the situation even if it was just a glance. He was really hard if he had to keep looking for reasons to lie.
“Iya, everything is as the Princess said.”
“But as to why Physician Genius Zhao didn't help me, it's because my condition used to be too miserable. So even if Genius Physician Zhao made me a pill, my body would not necessarily be able to take it. Moreover, the pill was a high-tier pill. The risk is huge.”
“Therefore Genius Physician Zhao gave me a prescription for this medicine, just in case my condition has improved, I can make it myself. Although in the beginning, Physician Genius Zhao was also eager to be able to treat me directly. Too bad he's short-lived.”
Princess Baili squinted. “That means, can you make medicine?”
“Of course. I used to make low-grade medicine to treat myself. It's just, with my equipment and abilities are all limited, the quality is very bad.”
For a moment, silence fell between the two.
Zhao Jun had no idea what Princess Baili was thinking. Only, he was sure that Princess Baili was no longer suspicious of the origin of her knowledge and ability in the field of medicine.
“Alright!”
Princess Baili suddenly exclaimed and reviewed a fairly wide smile towards Zhao Jun. Inevitably, Zhao Jun frowned in confusion.
“What's up, Princess Baili?”
While maintaining her smile, Princess Baili then leaned forward.
“Because you turned out to have the ability in the field of medicine, then I suggest you to follow my father with other students! How?”
