Linglong saw the shop door open and hurriedly came forward.
She first carefully made sure that the princess was unharmed, then she looked inside and saw her boss sitting on the ground with a grin on his face and wiping tears.
"The princess was not bullied, right?" Linglong asked quietly.
"Who can bully me! Didn't you see that I beat him like that? And I also got the shop!" Mu Nanxi raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes full of pride, and patted the place where the contract was placed in his arms. .
Linglong looked back and forth between the princess and the owner of the shop, and then nodded affirmatively: "The princess is mighty!"
"The store is ready. There are many skillful maids in the palace. The next step is to purchase the raw materials for making gardenia ointment!" Mu Nanxi waved her hand and led Linglong to the largest drug store in the capital.
Huangji Pharmacy is the largest pharmacy in the capital. Because of the reasonable prices, wide variety and high quality of medicines, every medical clinic in the capital buys medicines here, and there are semicolons in all regions of the Zhou Dynasty.
"Princess, Huangji Pharmacy is here." Linglong reminded.
Mu Nanxi raised her face, pushed open the door of the medicine shop, and walked in.
When the clerk in the drug store saw Mu Nanxi and her servant walking in, he immediately put down what he was doing and politely came forward to greet them. With a smile on his face, he asked: "What medicinal materials do you two ladies need? We have all kinds of rare medicinal materials here. I wonder which ones you need?"
Mu Nanxi looked around and saw that the medicine shop was filled with all kinds of medicinal materials, and all kinds of herbal medicines were available.
However, the poisonous weeds she needed were not among them, which made her a little worried.
With a slight smile on her face, she said to the waiter: "The medicinal materials I want are quite special, and the demand is relatively high. I wonder if you have enough goods here?"
When the waiter heard this, he knew that the charming customer in front of him was a big customer and he did not dare to neglect him.
He quickly led her to the seat next to him and said with a smile on his face: "Little lady, please rest assured that the medicinal materials in our Huangji Pharmacy are not only complete, but also of high quality. As long as the girl has needs, there is nothing that Huangji cannot find." !”
His voice was full of confidence, and he seemed to have immense trust in their medicinal materials.
Mu Nanxi winked at Linglong, and Linglong stepped forward and handed the prepared ingredient list of Gardenia Bai Cream into the hands of the waiter.
The waiter suddenly felt that he had been handed a hot potato and forced a smile on his face.
"Such a special order is beyond my control. Madam, please wait a moment. I will ask our shopkeeper to come over right away."
Mu Nanxi nodded slightly to express his response to the man.
With calm eyes, she watched the man walk quickly to the back hall.
The back hall is deep and mysterious, as if it contains some unknown secret.
Not long after, a healthy, middle-aged man in commoner clothes opened the curtain and came out.
His appearance surprised Mu Nanxi slightly, and she couldn't help but start muttering in her heart.
This man really didn't look like an ordinary shopkeeper doing business. He looked more like a soldier on the battlefield.
"The guy in the shop has never seen much of the world, which makes this lady laugh." The shopkeeper sat opposite Mu Nanxi and picked up the order on the table.
The shopkeeper looked at the various poisonous weeds on it and the required amounts, and his face couldn't help but change. He asked with a slightly vigilant look: "I wonder what the little lady is using these highly poisonous weeds for?"
"It's just making some facial ointment for my daughter's home. It's not a harmful activity."
After hearing this, the shopkeeper felt relieved.
He didn't want to get into any trouble, especially using these poisonous weeds to make unknown objects, which would be extremely dangerous.
He put down the order in his hand and said respectfully to Mu Nanxi: "My dear lady, we do not reserve the poisonous weeds you need in our store. But don't worry, our Huangji Pharmacy has many branches in the capital. I Immediately send someone to adjust the goods for you, send you a batch first, and make up for the rest five days later."
Mu Nanxi cupped her hands and said, "I'd like to trouble the shopkeeper to send the prepared poisonous weeds to Zhenbei Prince's Mansion."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was slightly surprised: "Zhenbei Palace?"
"Exactly."
"May I ask if this young lady is the Princess of Zhenbei?"
"Exactly."
The shopkeeper's attitude became more respectful and said: "It turns out that the princess is coming in person. Don't worry, princess, I will prepare with someone right now, and I will not miss the princess."
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he immediately called the waiter and gave some instructions.
Mu Nanxi hesitated, is the title of Princess so useful?
It’s really overwhelming at the official level!
Mu Nanxi returned to the palace and ordered Linglong to find all the female envoys in the palace who had little work to do.
Not long after, including the female envoys who had been in her courtyard, there were twenty-six people standing in Shaoyunxuan's courtyard.
Mu Nanxi had someone move an armchair and place it on the steps in front of everyone. She leaned on the back of the chair casually and glanced at the ladies below.
"That, that, that...you can go." She clicked on a few people who looked bad and sent them out.
She smiled and looked at the twelve kind-faced female envoys in front of her, and nodded with satisfaction.
"After noon, the shopkeeper of Huangji Pharmacy will come to deliver a batch of medicinal materials. You have to process the medicinal materials according to the steps I told you. You just have to work hard. After the gardenia ointment is made, you will benefit!"
Her voice is so beautiful and full of majesty that one cannot help but be impressed by it.
"Yes." The female envoys responded in unison.
…
"It's not good! It's not good!" Linglong suddenly opened the curtain on Mu Nanxi's bed.
"What's wrong this early in the morning? I was busy till late at night yesterday, can't you let me have a good sleep!" Mu Nanxi snorted and retracted his head into the quilt.
"The former owner of the shop sued the princess to the Yamen!"
Mu Nanxi sat up in shock: "What!?"
"The slave girl went to the pottery shop early in the morning with the porcelain box pattern drawn by the princess. On the way back, she saw someone beating a drum outside the Yamen. The slave girl was curious and went over to watch the fun. Unexpectedly, she saw the former owner of the shop playing the drum and talking eloquently. .”
"How did he say?"
"He complained that someone beat him, coerced him, and occupied his shop. These are all baseless words, but they sound like people think the princess is a treacherous person!"
Mu Nanxi gritted her teeth in anger and said angrily: "There really is him!"
Linglong said worriedly: "He doesn't know the identity of the princess, but if Zhang Fuyin takes the paper from him, he will definitely find out the princess!"
Mu Nanxi frowned, and the worry in her heart deepened: "Then where is he now?"
Linglong replied: "When I came back, Zhang Fuyin had not accepted the case, but it might not be possible at this time."
Mu Nanxi thought for a moment, and then said: "Waiting for them to come looking for you, why not go to the door directly?"
Linglong hesitated: "But Princess, if the outside world knows about this, they may publicize that you bully the people, which will damage the reputation of the Princess."
"It doesn't matter. I gave him real money and the contract is written in black and white. Can I still make him confuse right and wrong?"
After Mu Nanxi asked Linglong to freshen up and dress her up, the two of them hurried out and rushed to the capital Yamen.
People were already crowding outside the Yamen to watch the excitement. Mu Nanxi squeezed into the crowd and saw a fat middle-aged man kneeling on the ground in front of the hall. He was the former owner of the shop.
Zhang Fuyin sat in the main hall, listening to the complaint of the former owner of the shop with a majestic look on his face.
Although he is in his sixties and has a thin body, his eyes are still bright and lively, and he is not angry or intimidating.
He asked sternly: "Where is the woman surnamed Mu who you said threatened and forced you to sell a shop?"
The former owner of the shop did not dare to look directly into Zhang Fuyin's eyes. He only dared to bow his body and lower his head and said, "I only know the name of the woman, but I don't know where she lives."
"Then just tell her name, and I will send someone to investigate." Zhang Fuyin's tone was not impatient, but instead solved the problem for his employer.
"Thank you, Zhang Fuyin."
"Zhang Fuyin doesn't need to investigate. The woman this man said was forcing him is me."
The former owner of the shop heard the sound and dared to turn around and look up.
"That's her!" The former owner pointed tremblingly at Mu Nanxi in the crowd: "That's her."
Mu Nanxi walked forward, looked at the former owner of the shop with a smile, then turned to look at Zhang Fuyin, with a calm and firm tone: "Zhang Fuyin, this person is maliciously extorting money and making things out of nothing."
The former boss spat at Mu Nanxi and cursed: "You shameless and cruel woman, you don't pay homage to Zhang Fuyin? How dare you shout "Catch the thief" in front of Fuyin!"
"Be bold!"
The crisp sound of the gavel hitting the table was followed by Zhang Fuyin's scolding.
The sound was like thunder, so that everyone did not dare to make any more noise, and they all stayed silent.
The former boss was secretly proud of himself. He glanced sideways at Mu Nanxi beside him, his eyes full of ridicule and contempt. As if to say: "Look at how arrogant you can be! Wait a moment and Zhang Fuyin gives the order to hit you ten times!"
However, just when everyone thought that Mu Nanxi would be severely punished for the offense, Zhang Fuyin unexpectedly stood up.
He bent his upper body slightly, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and made a solemn salute to Mu Nanxi.
This move shocked everyone and they could not understand the meaning behind it.
Everyone in the hall was talking a lot, and the former owner was also panicked for a while.
"What's going on? Could it be that this little lady is from a high-ranking family?"
"How can a girl from a wealthy family show up in public? No, no!"
"But why did Zhang Fuyin salute a young lady?"
…
"I will pay my respects to the princess."
As soon as Zhang Fuyin said this, the newly bustling lobby suddenly became silent.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Mu Nanxi. They had heard about this princess's beauty and medical skills for a long time, but seeing her today, they felt a little unreal.
Mu Nanxi smiled slightly and saluted Zhang Fuyin in a calm and calm tone: "Zhang Fuyin is laughing at me. I didn't expect this person to be so greedy and insatiable. He took fifty taels of silver and was not satisfied. He actually made a fuss." Come to the Yamen."
Although her voice was soft, it spread clearly throughout the hall.
