Of course, Chu Yingluo did not miss the expression on Queen Li's face and continued to cooperate: "This is absolutely true. Your Majesty is gentle, kind and gentle, with both ability and political integrity. I hope you will agree to such a small request of mine. Don't worry, I will never I will leave the prince and run away secretly, even if the prince wants to divorce me, I will not leave."
Chu Yingluo could clearly see the current situation. She couldn't leave, but she had to have personal freedom, otherwise she would be trapped in the palace and starve to death sooner or later.
Empress Li really enjoys the feeling of being given a high hat. Furthermore, if some gossip spreads and let the Emperor and Queen Mother know that she has banned the princess, it will be difficult to explain. Anyway, the fourth child is about to die, so there is no need to rush and say: "I will not I'm worried that you will run away. Your father is still serving the emperor, and the lives of hundreds of people in the general's palace are all in your hands. Besides, if this is the king's land in the world, you can't run away, do you understand?"
Chu Yingluo was not afraid of her threat, but her face still showed fear: "I understand, my dear, I will stay in the house and serve the prince until the prince dies. If the prince passes away, I will be buried with him..."
Empress Li curled her lips and put on a considerate and generous look: "If you have any unfulfilled wishes, you can tell me."
How about letting her leave her last words?
"The empress doesn't know something. The housekeeper in the mansion ran away with the money. Now the mansion doesn't have a tael of silver, and can't even buy rice. If this spreads out, a living person as big as the prince will starve to death in the prince's mansion. What should the outside world think?"
Chu Yingluo continued her misery with tears in her eyes: "Besides, the palace doesn't even have any decent clothes. With money, the prince can be more dignified when he leaves."
After hearing this, Queen Li hesitated and then said to the maid: "First give the princess a hundred taels of silver."
Chu Yingluo achieved her goal, wiped away her fake tears, and said against her will: "Thank you, Madam, you are so kind... By the way, do you want to go in and see the prince?"
Empress Li glanced at the dilapidated and shabby palace door, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, and waved her hand: "No need, I am very relieved to have the princess taking care of me."
Empress Li said nothing, leaving only a few people to guard her, and drove back to the palace. From the beginning to the end, she didn't even bother to look at the prince's face, she just came to see when the prince died.
Seeing that Queen Li was gone, Chunhe hurriedly ran out, crying and apologizing: "I'm sorry, Princess, it's all my fault that I didn't tell you. In fact, that duck was the prince's pet, so he drove you away, as well as the duck in the mansion." Dogs grew up with the prince, and they are of great significance to the prince. Fortunately, they did not cause any big mistakes, but the slaves must be blamed for their deaths..."
Chu Yingluo suddenly realized that the reason why the prince was in a mood today was because she killed his pet duck.
She frowned and comforted Chunhe: "I don't blame you. I did it too quickly and you didn't react. In this case, you come with me."
Chu Yingluo went to the street, and the queen's people kept following her. Chu Yingluo didn't care. She didn't plan to run anyway, so she could follow if she wanted to.
One hundred taels of silver in this dynasty was equivalent to 20,000 yuan. One tael of silver could buy 150 kilograms of rice. It was a powerful purchase. With the queen's money, she could eat for a long time.
It cost twenty taels of silver just to buy the medicinal materials, and another twenty taels of silver for ginseng and deer antlers. These medicines were all used to treat the prince's illness.
After coming out of the pharmacy, there was a brother and sister kneeling on the roadside selling their bodies to bury their father. The man begged for mercy, but no one listened. The woman bruised her forehead and oozed blood.
Chu Yingluo stopped and saw that no one came to buy them after they knelt for a long time. She thought that there was a shortage of people at home and she needed to buy two workers.
She stepped forward and took a look. Her brother was gentle and frail, with a thin body, but he looked shrewd, spoke clearly and thought clearly, and seemed to be smart.
My sister has dark skin, a stocky figure, and looks like Hei Zhang Fei. The bosses who buy people all go after beautiful girls, and she looks like this...
But with this strong body, you can eat and fight at a glance.
Chu Yingluo immediately decided to buy the two of them, bought a coffin for their father, gave them ten taels of silver, and signed a deed of sale: "What are your names?"
The elder brother coughed slightly: "My name is Wu Dakui."
The younger sister knelt down on one knee domineeringly: "My name is Wu Jiaojiao. Miss asked my father to bury him in peace. I will go to hell for you. From now on, Jiaojiao will be yours."
Chu Yingluo took a breath of cold air. Did the two people have the wrong names?
Why does she think... this Da Kui should be called Jiao Jiao, and Jiao Jiao should be called Da Kui.
Chu Yingluo rubbed her chin and asked curiously: "When your father named you, were you sure he didn't contradict it?"
The elder brother scratched his head in embarrassment: "Father wanted me to be strong and strong. Unfortunately, I was frail and sick since I was a child, and I failed to live up to my father's hard work. Jiaojiao is just the opposite..."
I see.
Because the brother and sister had to bury their father first, Chu Yingluo returned home first.
Chu Yingluo bought some food and daily necessities, and then bought some clothes for herself and the prince. In addition, she also bought two new clothes for Chunhe, Dakui and Jiaojiao.
After all the shopping was done, I still had forty taels of silver left, but I couldn't even lift the things I bought.
Chu Yingluo glanced back, her eyes fell on the queen's people, she narrowed her eyes, smiled and raised her fingers at them.
Two subordinates came forward without knowing why: "What are your orders, Princess?"
Without saying a word, Chu Yingluo piled all the things into their hands and continued walking forward: "Follow me."
"..." The two subordinates looked at each other, looking at the things piled higher than their heads in their hands, and could only follow them clumsily.
"Quack quack..."
Chu Yingluo was suddenly attracted by the quacking of a group of ducks. She walked to the cage and stared at the ducks, big and small.
The vendor raised his head and asked with a smile: "Miss, do you want to buy ducks? One tael of silver for three, and I will give you a little duckling as a gift."
One tael of silver can buy four ducks.
The prince, who was so petty, actually got angry with her because of a duck.
Chu Yingluo raised her eyebrows: "I want all of these ducks!"
The vendor couldn't help but smile happily: "Okay, Miss, you are so generous. I will give you some duck food."
The queen's men were immediately dumbfounded: "This..."
Then, a strange scene appeared on the street. Chu Yingluo was followed by his men, who were driving dozens of ducks, quacking all the way back to the palace.
Chu Yingluo settled the ducks in the backyard and went to prepare medicine for the prince.
When making medicine, Chu Yingluo took some spiritual spring water from the space. Her spiritual spring water has many functions. It can not only cure diseases and irrigate medicinal materials, but can also be used to decoct medicine. Medicines containing spiritual spring water will make the medicinal materials more effective. The effect of the medicine is maximized.
The prince has been paralyzed in bed for a long time, and his deficiency cannot be replenished. He must first activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, dredge the meridians, and improve the numbness and difficulty in flexion and extension of the limbs caused by paralysis.
After finishing the medicine, Chu Yingluo entered the prince's room with a bowl in hand.
When Mo Beizhi heard the sound, he thought it was Chun He and raised his eyebrows irritably.
Until a sweet and soft voice sounded in my ears: "Your Majesty..."
Mo Beizhi's heart skipped a beat. He opened his eyes and looked over. The moment he saw Chu Yingluo, his eyes widened in shock and full of doubts.
Isn't she gone? Why are you back again...
