Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 183: Chapter 183: Linked Stratagems

Qin Tianxuan didn’t hesitate. ”The bad news first! I can take it!”

Gu Qingzhi became playful again. ”I think I’ll start with the good news. Han Biwei can be saved. She’ll wake up in about ten days, be on her feet in half a month, and after two months of rest, she’ll be as good as new!”

Qin Tianxuan frowned. ”Then what’s the bad news?”

Gu Qingzhi sighed. ”The bad news is that there’s a chance she’ll lose her memory!”

Qin Tianxuan was horrified.

Gu Qingzhi waved her hand. ”I’ll do my best to prevent it, but I have to be clear with you upfront. If it weren’t for Teacher Shuanghua’s medical logs, I couldn’t have possibly reached this conclusion so quickly!”

Qin Tianxuan forced himself to calm down and nodded. ”Go on.”

”Yes, Han Biwei’s condition is neurological. You might not be familiar with it, but Western medicine doesn’t really have many solutions for this kind of illness. Besides those life-threatening hormone therapies, they just have methods like surgery or genetic treatments. The truly effective approach is actually traditional Da Xia medicine. However, with neurological damage affecting the brain, the biggest problem is memory loss.”

She started listing off some technical terms, something about antibodies being blocked by the blood-brain barrier and being unable to clear central nervous system viruses.

After listening in silence, Qin Tianxuan said, ”Just give me the bottom line. How much of her memory will Weiwei lose? And what are the odds?”

Gu Qingzhi gave him a deep look. ”This Han Biwei is very important to you, I can see that. That’s why she might only lose the memories related to you. The memories you two share are likely the most active and best part of her mind, and unfortunately, the more active and unforgettable a memory is, the easier it is to lose!”

The room fell silent.

After a long moment, Qin Tianxuan looked up. ”Do whatever it takes. Cure Weiwei. Nothing else matters!”

”She might forget everything about you!”

”It doesn’t matter. As long as she still remembers Niannian, that’s all that counts. I was just a passerby in her life anyway. I only ever wanted my daughter, Niannian, to have a complete family.”

After speaking, Qin Tianxuan stood up. As if remembering something, he said, ”There’s one more thing I need to trouble you with.”

Gu Qingzhi feigned displeasure. ”Do you still need to be so polite with me? I’m Divine Doctor Shuanghua’s only disciple. By that logic, you’re practically my grandmaster.”

Qin Tianxuan lowered his voice. ”Help me forge a medical book. Make it look just like Shuanghua’s, but change all the formulas inside to be ineffective. And, in every formula, add a special medicinal herb called ’Moonlight Celestial Cyan Grass’!”

Gu Qingzhi was dumbfounded. ”Moonlight Celestial Cyan Grass? No medical book has ever recorded such an herb!”

Qin Tianxuan smiled. ”Of course not. I just made it up. But soon, there will be a pharmaceutical company that specializes in selling this ’super herb’!”

Gu Qingzhi was remarkably intelligent and understood immediately.

”You’re going to deliberately give the fake formulas to the bad guys, forcing them to buy this Moonlight Celestial Cyan Grass. Then you’ll sell it to them, so not only will they be unable to create the medicine, they’ll be driven to bankruptcy?”

Qin Tianxuan smiled. ”It sounds simple, but the actual execution is very complex!”

That night, Qin Tianxuan went to the Silver Alliance, where Shuanghua’s belongings were stored.

He entered the date he first met Shuanghua, opened the safe deposit box, and took out the logs and medical book that Gu Qingzhi had been keeping.

The pages were filled with his beloved wife’s handwriting.

Back then, after Shuanghua was unexpectedly killed, she had no choice but to mail the medical book and logs to the Gu Family before she died.

It was because she had no one left to trust. The items couldn’t be kept safe at Mirror Lake, so her only option was the Gu Family in distant Jinling. Since they were also a renowned family of doctors from the old days, perhaps the knowledge could be passed down.

Luckily, those two simpletons, Old Man Gu and Gu Yingying, knew nothing of the medical arts’ secrets, so they just tossed the items into a warehouse.

Until Gu Qingzhi discovered this treasure!

’It must be fate. The truly destined person, Gu Qingzhi, found your belongings, allowing them to see the light of day once more!’

Qin Tianxuan retrieved the items and returned to Shenghua Hospital.

There, Gu Qingzhi and Lingsu joined forces and quickly produced a medical book that looked identical to Shuanghua’s original.

Qin Tianxuan then placed this medical book back into the Silver Alliance safe and changed the password.

Now, all he had to do was wait for an opportunity for Luo Tianying to come looking on his own accord.

”Spread the word that the item the Luo Family is looking for is in a safe at the Silver Alliance, but only I know the password!”

Qin Tianxuan began to set his plan in motion.

”Also, order Wutian of the Northern Domain Battle Department to prepare one hundred cartloads of that special pasture grass from the Longshou Hill battlefield! I have a use for it!”

In the Northern Domain, War Venerable Wutian was dumbfounded.

”That strange, blue-black grass from the Longshou Hill battlefield? Only desert camels can manage a couple of bites of that stuff. It can’t even grow anywhere else. What does the Commander want with a hundred cartloads?”

”Those are the orders, they must be carried out! This is a simple enough task.”

The wild grass, which no outsider had ever seen, was actually quite beautiful. It was blue-black with faint, white, crescent-shaped marks on it, like the shadow of moonlight.

One hundred cartloads were prepared, preserved for storage, and shipped directly to a secret location in Jinling.

At that moment, Luo Tianying, the man in control of the Linghai National Medicine Group, was holding his phone and listening excitedly to a report.

”You have news about Ye Shuanghua’s medical book?”

”A safe? Can’t you just steal it? Dammit, can’t you just send people to go snatch it?”

His subordinate could only explain with a wry smile, ”It’s an internal safe at the Silver Alliance. Unless you want a universal arrest warrant out for you, Young Master...”

”Fine, then buy your way in!”

”That’s not possible, Young Master.”

”Fuck! So I have to get that bastard Qin Tianxuan to give up the password?”

”Yes. So, what should we do...?”

”I get it!” Luo Tianying slammed his phone down and frowned in thought. ’Qin Tianxuan... Hmm, isn’t his mother from the Chu Family? It seems I’ll have to start with them after all!’

Chu Qianqiu and Chu Sihai were truly out of luck.

Their company had been seized, and both of them were being held captive.

And now they had to suffer under Young Master Luo’s pressure!

The two of them were on the verge of tears, repeatedly insisting they had cut all ties with Qin Tianxuan. They even swore to the heavens and cursed Qin Tianxuan’s mother on the spot.

But in Young Master Luo’s eyes, it was all just an act.

”Keep interrogating them! If that doesn’t work, beat them!”

At this time, the only high-ranking member of the Chu Family still free, the young miss Chuchu, was at her wit’s end. After thinking it over and over, her only option was to ask Ye Xuanxuan for help!
