268 It’s Too Difficult!

Today, Lin Suisu returned later than usual.

Just as Wei Qing knew, it was too difficult for people who were addicted to hemp leaves to quit!

The condition of those soldiers was deteriorating day by day. The maidservants that Doctor Luo had arranged at the beginning couldn’t force them to drink medicine at all. In the end, they had no choice but to look for Pei Qian and a few reliable guards to help resolve this urgent matter.

When Lin Suisui went over today, those soldiers were at their worst state.

Although their limbs were tied up, they could no longer maintain their sanity after the medicine’s effects kicked in! Their limbs were bleeding, but the soldiers continued to struggle, as if they didn’t feel any pain.

At first, they only cried and begged for mercy, but later on, they started cursing.

If they wanted to completely infuse the medicine, they needed three to four guards to hold them down! Sometimes, if they weren’t careful, they would even bite them…

“Your Highness, we can’t continue like this!” Doctor Luo wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and came out to discuss with Lin Suisui. “They seem to have gone crazy. They won’t listen to anything and only want hemp leaves!”

“I know.” Lin Suisui nodded. She stood by the window and watched the scene in the room for a long time before saying with certainty, “Continue. In this situation, it’s all about who can survive this!

If we win, they’ll be one step closer to escaping the hemp leaves’ control!

“But if we compromise now, our efforts for the past few days will be in vain!”

Lin Suisui’s eyes were filled with heartache, but she didn’t compromise. “Hold on a little longer. They can definitely survive it!”

“Your Highness, you can’t go in now!”

Seeing that Lin Suisui was about to turn around and enter the room, Doctor Luo quickly took two steps forward to stop Lin Suisui from entering. “The situation is too dangerous now! They might hurt you if you’re not careful!

“Please wait a little longer. Before you came just now, we’ve already given them some calming soup. They’ll fall asleep soon. It won’t be too late for you to go in and take their pulse at that time!”

Doctor Luo naturally understood what Lin Suisui wanted to do, but while he admired Lin Suisui’s courage, he had to consider her safety!

Although he also hoped that the soldiers inside could recover, if Lin Suisui was injured because of this, the consequences wouldn’t be something a few soldiers like them could bear!

“According to you, it’s been half an hour since they’ve drunk the calming medicine! In the past, they would have fallen asleep already so long after they’d drunk the calming medicine! But look at them now. Do they look like they’re sleeping peacefully?!”

Lin Suisui frowned. Of course, she knew that Doctor Luo was being kind, but with the situation inside, she clearly couldn’t wait any longer. After thinking for a moment, she turned to look at Su Le. “Su Le, go in and knock them out!”

What Lin Suisui didn’t expect was that this method was really useful!

After being knocked out, the two soldiers were much less noisy. Lin Suisui simply instructed Su Le to knock out the remaining soldiers as well.

The courtyard, which had been noisy for most of the day, finally calmed down. This made Doctor Luo and the others, who had stayed in the courtyard to take care of them, heave a sigh of relief.

Lin Suisui went in to take the pulses of the soldiers one by one. Then, she walked out and said to Doctor Luo, “From their pulses, their condition hasn’t worsened!

What we should do now is continue to observe and see if there are any signs of improvement in the future. We should continue to give them the prescription. The medicine can’t be stopped no matter what!

The first stage of withdrawal was the most difficult!

After we survive this round, the rest will be a slow recovery process!”

According to Lin Suisui, Doctor Luo went to take the soldiers’ pulse again. When he came out again, he looked much happier. “Finally, it’s finally stable!”

Compared to yesterday, although their pulse didn’t improve today, it didn’t deteriorate further. If that was the case, they might gradually improve!

This was the best news they had heard in so many days!

Lin Suisui discussed the prescription with Doctor Luo again before getting up to bid farewell to him and returning home at night.

“I came back late.” After Lin Suisui tidied herself up, she came over to the warm pavilion. She didn’t expect that not only Pei Qian came over, but even Wei Qing and Zhou Hengchang came over!

For a moment, she was very embarrassed.

“It’s fine. We just arrived not long ago!” Pei Qian said calmly as he gestured for Wei Qing to pass him a plate and quickly picked up the mutton on the roasting plate. “You returned right when the meat was ready!”

Lu Ze had not taken his eyes off Lin Suisui ever since she entered. He was more attentive than Pei Qian, so he didn’t overlook the fatigue on her face and couldn’t help but ask worriedly, “The situation isn’t good?”

“Yes.” Lin Suisui didn’t hide anything. After she followed Lu Ze to the table and sat down, she briefly explained the situation at Dr. Luo’s place today. Then, she said, “To be honest, this is the first time I’ve truly seen patients who are addicted to hemp!

This kind of withdrawal is really too difficult to overcome!

At this moment, they’re like a group of lunatics who have lost their minds! Their minds are preoccupied with thoughts of hemp leaves. If they could obtain hemp leaves, even if someone asked them to kill their loved ones now, they probably wouldn’t refuse!

On the way back today, the more I thought about it, the more afraid I became!

If we had discovered it later and really let this scourge spread, not to mention the northern region, even the entire empire would have been in chaos!”

“Fortunately, we’ve already discovered it!” Lu Ze walked over and placed the hand stove in Lin Suisui’s arms. Then, he caressed her and said in a low voice, “It’s fine. Those people’s scheme will definitely fail this time!”

“Sister, doesn’t that mean that these soldiers can’t be cured?!” Wei Qing looked at Lin Suisui in dejection. Although this outcome was within his expectations, when he really heard this answer, he still looked disappointed.

“Who said that these soldiers can’t be treated?” Lin Suisui looked up at Wei Qing seriously and replied, “I’m just saying that there’s no improvement for the time being! As long as I don’t give up, I’ll definitely think of a solution! I can’t watch them suffer without helping!”
