"How is my grandfather?" Lin Xiaofei asked the doctor. Her eyebrows were drawn together with worry and uncertainty of what to do at this moment.

"Like what Attendant He said. Your grandfather swallowed a mouthful of poison. The poison is called Deer Venom."

"Deer Venom?" Lin Xiaofei never heard of this type of poison in her entire life. She may find some lethal poisons familiar and have come across them in her past life, however, she had never heard of a poison that was created out of a deer.

As if he could read her mind, Doctor Fang explained, "Deer Venom is not created from a deer. It doesn\'t have any ingredients that were extracted from the carcass of a deer nor from a living one either. On the contrary, the Deer Venom is found in the foreign land in the western regions and are quite deadly."

"Will my grandfather be okay?" Lin Xiaofei felt her knees weakening as soon as she heard him.. No thoughts entered her mind when she heard that the poison was deadly.

"I can slow down the effect of the venom but he needs an antidote. If it isn\'t treated quickly, you might need to prepare and bid your farewell to your grandfather." Doctor Fang frankly told her before he continued, not waiting for her to say anything, "Before you ask, I currently don\'t have the antidote. I can make it but it would take me a while before I could make one. Besides, the ingredients in making the antidote are quite rare and unattainable."

"It doesn\'t matter. Doctor Fang only needs to create an antidote and make sure my grandfather survives. As for the money and ingredients, just list everything down and I will have someone buy all of them." Lin Xiaofei didn\'t care about how much silvers or golds that was needed to get the ingredients for the antidote.

What was important for her was that Lin Xiaomeng lives even if that means turning her entire courtyard upside down to pay for everything.

Doctor Fang nodded but deep inside of him, he wasn\'t so positive about this matter. He could easily list down the ingredients needed to make the antidote but most of them are found in the western regions where the venom was found. While the other ingredients could be found in the mountains.

Hence, it might take a while before anyone could collect every ingredient that was needed to make the antidote.

"One must hasten to look for a way to get these ingredients. Fortunately, I was able to slow down the effect of the venom and will give him a week for him to live. But if the antidote isn\'t created before the deadline, please do not blame this one for being incompetent and prepare for the worst." Doctor Fang added before he left the inner room to list down the names of ingredients.

On the other hand, Lin Xiaofei relaxed when she heard that there was a way for Lin Xiaomeng to live.

However, she couldn\'t keep her calm when she heard someone announcing outside that the servant who served the tea to her grandfather was now being led to the room.

Attendant He opened the door to the inner room while two guards pushed the servant inside before making her kneel.

"So, you\'re the one who served the tea to my grandfather." Lin Xiaofei softly said. Her expression didn\'t betray any kind of emotion she was feeling right now. But the storm inside her eyes was surging and threatening to come out any time.

The servant before her was wearing a gray uniform for the servants tasked to clean the courtyard and serve teas to their master. But Lin Xiaofei already met this servant before. It was the same female servant whom she met the first time she looked for Lin Xiaomeng when she had just got inside this body.

At that time, the female servant panicked when she saw her but Lin Xiaofei didn\'t think more of it since her focus at that time was how she would convince her grandfather to let her go out.

That is why she never paid attention to this lowly servant.

The female servant tried to struggle free from the guards who held her down. But the strength of these guards was quite strong for her to not even move an inch even though she was rampaging like a bull.

"Let go of me! I didn\'t do anything! It wasn\'t me!" The female servant denied the accusation and screamed at the top of her lungs.

"I swear it wasn\'t me! I was only ordered to serve the tea but I never planned to poison the general!" She continued to bellow until her voice could be heard outside.

And that\'s when Lin Xiaofei firmly took hold of her jaw and made the female servant look at her in the eyes.

Then, Lin Xiaofei curled her lips into a cruel smile, "Scream again and I\'ll pull out your tongue myself. Do you think I\'m afraid I\'ll lose my only lead to the truth behind this if I do that? Think again… Skinning you alive should be enough warning against the people behind you."

Lin Xiaofei\'s nails were digging the skin of the female servant. She even drew blood from it but Lin Xiaofei didn\'t care and it was only the female servant who flinched in pain.

The guards were standing straight with their hands on top of the hilt of their swords. Their hands tightened around it as they felt the raw bloodlust coming out from Lin Xiaofei. This kind of bloodlust, only the people who have shed blood and killed someone would know and naturally so, as soldiers under Lin Xiaomeng\'s control, they didn\'t miss it.

Attendant He, who was also the right-hand man of her grandfather was surprised at Lin Xiaofei. He never witnessed this side of her. He only saw the spoiled and arrogant young lady that was his master\'s beloved granddaughter.

He suddenly couldn\'t believe what he was seeing and didn\'t know what to think or feel.

At this moment, several footfalls were heard and before long, the door to the inner room to the main courtyard was pushed open from the outside and Lin Feng arrived.

"Where\'s father? And what exactly happened?" He demanded an answer from everyone inside the room.
