Chapter 853 - 852: Traces of Proving One’s Existence
Yesterday’s tea leaves, he had tasted them carefully. Indeed, they were extraordinary. Even if they didn’t have a sleep-inducing effect, Imperial Doctor Du, who thought he wouldn’t get any good tea after returning to Qingzhou Prefecture, wouldn’t let go of such rare tea.
Wang Yongzhu chatted quietly with Imperial Doctor Du, asking what to be aware of for ordinary patients like Old Granny Zhang.
When Imperial Doctor Du asked about the tea leaves, she casually mentioned a couple of things and then changed the topic.

Imperial Doctor Du, who had navigated the centers of power, quickly caught on and asked, "Tell me, what do you want from this old man?"
