An abortifacient.
Xie Jianyu's mind went numb when he heard the word. Someone might just pour a pail of ice water above his head, and it would not feel any different.
Qingyun sprang to her feet and started pulling Mingyu off their master.
"Mingyu, what are you saying?? It is a concoction to promote Master's health! The recipe came from the physicians directly!!!"
"NO!!!"
Mingyu stubbornly refused to let go of Xie Jianyu.
"Master, please listen to me! Do not drink any of it!" She begged under tears.
Xie Jianyu sucked in a deep breath as his one maid clawed into his arms while crying her eyes out, while the other was busy peeling the first maid off him.
"Qingyun, lock the door," Xie Jianyu said once he regained his composure. Mingyu and Qingyun were his responsibilities. If Mingyu was suffering from a Nightmare Curse, then Xie Jianyu would be the one to cure her.
"At... At once, Master!"
