"Come on, hurry up!" the soldier said to drive Mu Nanxi away.
"I am the doctor, and I am the one who entered the palace to diagnose and treat Concubine Huang."
"You?" The soldier looked up and down with questioning eyes. "If you can't cure it, you will be jailed by the officials! Why are you, a pretty girl, here to join in the fun?"
"I am Princess Zhenbei. I detoxified the young master of Dian Kingdom and the empress in the palace a few days ago. Did you hear about it?"
The soldiers exchanged glances with each other, unsure whether what the woman in front of them said was true or false, so they gathered together to discuss it.
"What should we do? If it's true, we can't offend him. King Zhenbei is a ruthless character that even the Li family doesn't take seriously!"
"But what if it is a lie and what is the purpose of her entering the palace? Aren't we guilty of negligence and will be beheaded!"
"I heard from my brother who was on duty at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet that the Princess of Zhenbei is beautiful in heaven and beautiful in the country. This beautiful lady has an outstanding figure, so she really fits the bill."
"what to do?"
The two of them didn't come up with a result after discussing it for a long time. It wasn't until a man's cold voice came from not far away that they were able to break the deadlock.
"What are you doing here?"
Mu Nanxi turned around and looked around, only to see a man wearing a dark emerald robe embroidered with cloud patterns and a jade pendant with a dragon pattern hanging around his waist walking slowly, accompanied by a gentle and elegant man walking beside him.
Both of them are very impressive, and you can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary people.
"May you be safe, Your Majesty." The soldiers hurriedly bowed to greet him.
Perhaps the soldiers had just returned to the capital because King Zhenbei had been guarding the north all year round, so they didn't know the appearance of people, but how could the jade pendant with dragon patterns around their waists be used by ordinary people.
Qi Zhiheng's long dark hair was gently pulled up with a jade hairpin, and a few strands of hair were gently fluttering, adding a bit of chicness.
His deep eyes were as calm as the night sky, making it impossible to look away.
Qi Zhiheng walked towards Mu Nanxi step by step. Although there was a smile on his face, his tone was still cold: "Why did the princess leave the palace alone?"
He glanced at the imperial list in Mu Nanxi's hand, his eyes cold.
Mu Nanxi shook the thing in her hand and replied in a strange way: "I am going to the palace to diagnose and treat Concubine Huang. If the prince doesn't give me any money, I have to find a way on my own."
Song Bojian, who was standing next to Qi Zhiheng, was amused and chuckled twice, which sounded a bit harsh to Qi Zhiheng's ears.
This damn woman threw his face into the street and was trampled on by others!
When word spread that the Princess of Zhenbei unveiled the royal list for the bounty, she thought that the Prince of Zhenbei's palace was starved of food and relied on women to make money to support the family.
Qi Zhiheng's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and whispered: "Go back to the palace and get the amount of silver you need from the accounting office."
"No need! What if the prince is unhappy again next time and asks the accountant to hide the money? It's better to fend for yourself."
Mu Nanxi threw off the cloth bag on her body and turned around calmly, ignoring Qi Zhiheng who turned green with anger, and walked up to the soldier: "Now that you know the identity of my princess, please introduce me to the palace."
The soldier glanced at the dark-faced prince, thinking that they had neglected the princess and made the prince angry. He nodded hurriedly, bowed and led the people to the palace.
Mu Nanxi entered the palace and followed the palace maid who led the way through the layers of palace walls to the Ninghe Hall, Huang Guifei's residence.
I saw that the gate of Ninghe Hall was tall and carved with patterns of birds facing the phoenix, which was extraordinary.
After entering the palace gate, the courtyard was paved with cobblestones. Mu Nanxi only felt a slight elasticity when he stepped on them, as if lotus trees were growing with each step. There are many precious flowers and plants planted in the yard, which are carefully taken care of and bloom like brocade. Even in autumn, it is still a vibrant scene.
Mu Nanxi was secretly stunned. This Ninghe Palace was really luxurious, which showed Huang Guifei's high status in the palace.
She followed the palace maid into the main hall, and faced a magnificent landscape painting. The carved incense burner in the center of the main hall exuded a light fragrance, making people relaxed and peaceful.
Concubine Huang was sitting in the center of the hall, wearing a gorgeous palace dress, her face was haggard but still dignified.
"Long blessing, Concubine Huang." Mu Nanxi stepped forward and blessed her.
She bowed slightly and was not surprised at all because the person who appeared was Mu Nanxi: "Excuse me, Princess. Please sit down."
"News came from outside the palace this morning that someone had unveiled the royal list, and who could have imagined that it was the princess." Huang Guifei said with a smile.
Mu Nanxi took off the small cloth bag she was carrying and said, "I'll take your concubine's pulse first."
Concubine Huang nodded and gently pulled down her wide sleeves, revealing her slender wrists.
Mu Nanxi gently put his fingers on her wrist and looked at it carefully.
Huang Guifei frowned, pursed her lips and said nothing, tears welling up in her eyes.
"How long has it been since the imperial concubine had no appetite?" Mu Nanxi asked, breaking the silence.
"For more than half a month, I couldn't eat every day and couldn't sleep at night. It was very hard." Huang Guifei covered her mouth, her eyes full of distress and melancholy: "I have been taking the decoction and medicine for a long time according to the prescription prescribed by the Taiyuan Hospital. Still can’t eat.”
Mu Nanxi pondered for a moment and then said: "The imperial concubine is fine and there is no need to drink any more medicine."
Huang Guifei's eyes widened in surprise, and her already dark eyes lit up: "Really? That soup is so bitter and spicy that it's hard to swallow!"
Mu Nanxi nodded and consoled her: "Your Majesty must have mistakenly eaten something that was incompatible with her before, and her worries hurt her spleen and stomach. I will just prescribe some medicinal food for your Majesty."
Huang Guifei heard this and stopped talking.
"What concerns does Huang Guifei have?"
"The medicated food won't taste the same, right?" Huang Guifei pays great attention to her appetite. She really doesn't like the unpalatable food with clear soup and little water.
"Don't worry, Concubine Huang, my medicinal diet this time is made with rock sugar and red fruits. Eat five to ten pieces before each meal. Within half a month, the concubine's inability to swallow will be cured." Mu Nanxi explained the cooking method. Write it down and give it to the maid next to Huang Guifei.
"Is it that simple?" Huang Guifei was a little skeptical, but thinking about the scene of the Mid-Autumn Festival a few days ago, she felt relieved.
After all, she is a woman with better medical skills than the imperial doctors at the Imperial Hospital. I guess her shortcomings are definitely not worth mentioning in the eyes of the princess.
"Xiao Xiao, go and cook the medicinal food according to the princess's recipe."
"You've worked really hard today, Princess. I'm going to prepare a hundred taels of gold right now, so Princess can take a rest."
Mu Nanxi nodded: "Thank you very much, Concubine."
"It's me who should thank the princess!"
Mu Nanxi sat on the other side of the Luohan bed and waited, looking at the luxurious and exquisite furnishings around her.
There are many precious flowers and plants in Ninghe Hall, all of which are extremely difficult to maintain and require a lot of effort.
Mu Nanxi withdrew her gaze and took out the facial cream she had prepared in her arms. She handed the porcelain box to Concubine Huang with a smile and said, "This is the Zhibai cream developed by me. Concubine Huang can beautify your skin after applying it." Nourishes and moisturizes the skin.”
She temporarily thought of an elegant name to scare Concubine Huang.
"Oh?" Huang Guifei happily took it, opened it gently, smelled it and said, "The aroma is fresh and refined, thick but not obvious. I can't eat it during the day, and I'm also struggling to take care of my skin. I'm worried about it!"
"This gardenia white ointment is developed from precious medicinal materials such as Angelica dahuricae, angelica, and pearls. It is of great benefit to the imperial concubine's skin. Apply it once a day and within two days, the imperial concubine's skin will be completely renewed."
Although her gardenia ointment formula was full of poisonous weeds, she didn't say it clearly in order to prevent Huang Guifei from being too scared to use it.
"Can the princess stay here for dinner today? I wonder what kind of meal the princess likes?"
Mu Nanxi politely declined: "Concubine Huang's kindness, I accept it mentally and physically. It's just that I still have trivial matters to arrange, so it's not convenient for me to stay for a long time. I hope Concubine Huang will forgive me."
Huang Guifei smiled and nodded: "Then Princess, feel free to do it yourself."
Mu Nanxi was satisfied with the reward.
She disdained the hypocrisy and coercion in the palace and hurriedly left the palace. One hundred taels of gold was loaded into four carts before being transported to Zhenbei Palace...
"Have you heard that the Princess of Zhenbei has a wonderful rejuvenation and cured the official's favorite concubine?"
There was a lot of discussion under the tea sheds on the street.
Several little boys in coarse cloth looked curiously at the crowd in the tea shed.
They were only seven or eight years old, with clear eyes, and each had a candied haws in their hands.
"I heard that not only did she save Huang Guifei's life, but the Zhibai ointment she developed made Huang Guifei radiant and even more glorious than before!" An old man in shabby clothes bowed his hands in the direction of the palace. , his tone was full of admiration.
"The princess is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but she is also so capable." Another middle-aged man couldn't help but interjected, "The medicinal diet that the princess prescribed to Huang Guifei was a coincidence. Even we poor people can use it." Eat the same thing in the palace!"
The opinions and opinions of the people inevitably spread to the Zhenbei Palace.
"Princess, my servants heard from the people outside the palace that the princess had rejuvenated herself with magic, cured the official's favorite concubine, and developed a gardenia white ointment that made Huang Guifei radiant. They were all praising the princess!" Linglong nodded for Mu Nanxi. Tea, he said enthusiastically.
Mu Nanxi's eyes flashed with shrewdness, and she chuckled: "Really? Now everyone in the palace is talking about the Gardenia Bai ointment I developed?"
"Yes, Princess. This slave went to the street to buy some silk thread. There are rumors about the Princess everywhere. People say that the Princess is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but also has such abilities!" Linglong said excitedly.
A sly smile flashed in Mu Nanxi's eyes, and she said leisurely: "Now that I am famous, it's time to start the second step of the plan!"
"The second step of the plan?" Linglong was puzzled.
"Of course I will make more money every day, and I will reach the top of my life from now on!"
"Let's go! Buy a shop and recruit people to open a shop!"
"Opening a shop? You can't do it, princess! You are a woman and the princess of Zhenbei King. You have a noble status. How can you show your face and do business? This businessman is a low-level business. Why does the princess bother to be among merchants just for money?" Linglong He hurriedly advised.
"Who said women can't do business? They all have one face and two legs, and they are divided into three levels?"
Mu Nanxi's eyes flashed with determination and determination, she was going to break this bullshit rule!
"Let's go and get my precious gold."
Seeing that Linglong couldn't persuade her, she could only obediently take a few ingots of gold and follow...
