At this time, Nalan Zhengze had hurried to the main hall in the front yard of the Nalan family.
Before he even entered the door, a man in brocade rushed up to him, grabbed his collar and said angrily: "Nalan Zhengze, the first time this prince ordered Jiuqu Lingshen Dan from you, I was waiting to use the elixir to save my concubine's life. You actually used such a thing to perfunctorily deal with this prince! Now that my concubine is dead, you have to compensate me for her life!"
As soon as Nalan Zhengze came in, someone grabbed his collar and pulled him so hard that he staggered and became dizzy.
His ears were filled with the angry roar of the newcomer and the chattering of others behind him. His face was sprayed with spit and he was completely unable to react for a moment.
When he finally came to his senses, he pushed away the person who was grabbing him and finally saw the other person's appearance clearly.
He is the sixth prince of Jinling State—Shangguan Heng, and also the nephew of Zhu Yijun of the Zhu family.
Shangguan Heng's face was filled with anger at this moment. He no longer had the elegance and composure he had when he helped Zhu Yijun to propose marriage.
Shangguan Heng's words made Nalan Zhengze's heart skip a beat.
Could it be that there was something wrong with the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill? This is impossible! It must be because the Sixth Prince's concubine's illness was not caused by poisoning.
Thinking of this, Nalan Zhengze cleared his throat and said seriously: "Sixth Prince, please don't slander me. My Nalan family's Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill has never had any problems. Many people have been saved from death by the effect of this pill. Sixth Prince, your concubine could not be saved, maybe because your concubine was not poisoned, but had other strange diseases..."
The Sixth Prince flew into a rage upon hearing this and interrupted him harshly, "How dare you accuse me of slander..."
But before the Sixth Prince could finish his words, a white-bearded old man came forward and threw a red pill in front of Nalan Zhengze. "The Sixth Prince's concubine is not poisoned, but this is not the first time I have come to Nalan Divine Doctor to buy medicine. I can't be unable to tell the difference between the Nine-Curved Spiritual Ginseng Pill and a fake one, right? Nalan Zhengze, we call you a Divine Doctor to give you face. Do you really think that we old guys are easy to bully? How dare you use a fake pill to deceive us?!"
The red pill was thrown at Nalan Zhengze, who caught it.
When he looked up and saw the face of the person who was questioning him, his heart skipped a beat and he said in a trembling voice, "Elder Han, why do you say that? The Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill I, Nalan Zhengze, have never made a mistake in refining!"
The white-bearded old man was one of the elders of Shuiyue Sect. Although he had not yet reached the Nascent Soul Stage, he was already at the peak of the Golden Core Stage. He had some status in Shuiyue Sect and was definitely not someone Nalan Zhengze had the courage to offend.
Hearing Nalan Zhengze's words, Elder Han sneered and said, "Do you really think I'm old and confused? You can't even tell whether the elixir is effective or not? Today, you have to give us the real Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill as compensation, otherwise, I will tear down your entire Nalan Mansion!"
Elder Han's words caused the other deceived people to curse loudly.
"You are so good, Nalan Zhengze, you actually dared to cheat us with fake medicine. Do you really think we are easy to fool?"
"Are you too old and useless to refine the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill? Then pay us back double the price we paid!"
"That's right, either pay us back double or give us the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng Pill, otherwise we will destroy the Nalan Mansion!" (To be continued)
