The carriage stopped. Shen Luoxi and Xue Yu stopped in front of a pharmacy. Xue Yu looked at her in confusion, "Princess, are you sick?"

But Shen Luoxi looked energetic, her eyes seemed to be shining with light, and she didn't look like she was feeling unwell.

Shen Luoxi smiled and said, "Can't I come here to buy medicinal materials if I'm not sick? If something happens and I don't have any medicine, wouldn't I be waiting to die in vain?"

Xueyu nodded when he heard this and looked at her with a little more curiosity.

"When did the princess learn medical skills? Yesterday, I saw that the doctors around the prince were too embarrassed to stay in the room."

"I have nothing to do in Lengyuan. I can only read books to pass the time on weekdays. I didn't expect that I am quite talented." Shen Luoxi explained with a smile.

She knew that she would be doubted if she showed off her medical skills, so she thought of a reason for herself at that time, and whenever anyone asked, she would use this reason to excuse her.

After all, she is just ugly, but she is the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, and she has no problem reading and writing.

Xueyu looked at her with admiration, "As expected of the princess, the princess was already smart before she came out of the cabinet, but it's a pity..."

Before she finished speaking, Shen Luoxi had already guessed what was going on.

Shen Luoxi didn't take it seriously. Now that most of the poison on her face has gone, it won't take long for her appearance to recover.

And she is not a weak original. If someone comes to provoke her, she will never show mercy.

The master and servant walked into the medicine shop. Shen Luoxi selected them for a while, but the medicinal materials here were all old and their efficacy had long since dissipated. Even the garbage in her space was not qualified.

She took Xueyu to the next store, but she couldn't find anything she wanted.

The shopkeeper looked at Shen Luoxi's picky look and immediately understood that he had met an expert. He flattered and walked forward, "Miss, you have been choosing for a long time, but you still haven't found anything you like?"

"The medicines in my pharmacy are the best in the capital!"

Shen Luoxi took out the handkerchief and slowly wiped the dust on his fingertips, then raised his beautiful eyes and looked at the shopkeeper coldly.

"You dare to say this without fear of being laughed at."

The shopkeeper was stunned and hurriedly asked, "I don't understand what you are saying, miss. What happened to my medicine?"

“If you can’t cure a disease, you can’t kill a person by eating it.”

Shen Luoxi stood up and was about to leave with Xueyu but was stopped by the shopkeeper, "Miss said my medicine is not good, do you have any evidence?"

The shopkeeper looked at her with Hengmei, but when he met those ancient and unwavering eyes, his aura dropped.

"These medicines have been stored for as little as two years and as long as five years, and some have even been affected by moisture." Shen Luoxi said calmly: "I don't want to ruin your business, but if you want to embarrass me, I won't You’ll be polite.”

Hearing her tone, the shopkeeper understood that she was not a good person. He was an old man, so he naturally understood that it was not advisable to be an enemy of Shen Luoxi.

He looked around, then lowered his voice and said: "Since the lady is an expert, I won't pretend to be an expert. As long as I have enough money, I can get any kind of medicinal materials!"

"Even if it's medicine from the palace, I still have a way!"

Shen Luoxi became interested. She made sure that the shopkeeper was not telling lies, and then asked him for a pen and paper to write down a dozen medicines. She put the paper and a bag full of silver into his hand.

When the shopkeeper saw that it was a big business and many of them were extremely valuable medicinal materials, he laughed out of his eyes.

"If you don't let me down, I won't let you down either." Shen Luoxi said.

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, miss, if you are not satisfied, you can destroy my store!"

Shen Luoxi did not comment, and took Xueyu on the carriage to go back to the palace.

"Princess, aren't you afraid that the shopkeeper will trick you?" Xueyu asked worriedly.

The silver given by Shen Luoxi just now was at least one hundred taels!

But the servants in the palace have always taken advantage of Shen Luoxi's status. If it weren't for the generous dowry, they would have been tortured to death by those servants who worshiped everyone!

Now the prince only hates the princess, so it is better to save money and spend it.

Shen Luoxi chuckled, "The prince's signature was left on the piece of paper I gave him, but he didn't dare."

Anyway, I can't get rid of my identity as Princess Xuan now, so I naturally have to make full use of Cang Yunxuan's name.

Xueyu was filled with admiration and admired her even more.

After a while, the carriage stopped.

When Shen Luoxi got out of the car, he accidentally bumped into someone and stumbled.

The man almost fell down. He hurriedly turned his head to look at Shen Luo Xi, only to see the gauze swaying, revealing Shen Luo Xi's face that had half of the sores removed. He shook his head, and after realizing it, he lowered his head and apologized: "No. Sorry, I blocked the young lady’s way.”

Shen Luoxi calmly raised his head and straightened his veil, said "It's okay" and walked into the palace.

The man looked at Shen Luoxi's back with a more thoughtful look on his face.

He turned around and asked the people around him in a low voice, "Is that woman just now the third brother's princess?"

"Back to His Majesty the Seventh Highness, it should be."

Cang Chenru touched his chin, "Third brother has been married for so long. Today is the first time I see this sister-in-law. It seems a little different from what I imagined."

The guard saw that he was actually standing in front of Prince Xuan's Mansion, thinking, and hurriedly urged: "Your Majesty, Seventh Prince, let's return to the palace as soon as we deliver the things. It won't be good for others to see him!"

Cang Chenru touched the human skin mask on his face and waved his hand indifferently, "No one will recognize me with my appearance now. Let's go, I have to patrol the store."

He turned around and got on the carriage, and the guards could only follow, but they still reminded him dutifully, "The palace banquet will start soon, and it would be better for His Majesty the Seventh Prince to hurry up."

"I know." Cang Chenru said calmly.

He stopped and walked along the way, and soon he had a lot of account books at hand. He glanced at them quickly, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Cang Chenru walked into the drug store. The shopkeeper was calculating the accounts. When he saw the boss coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Head, big business is here!"

The shopkeeper handed him Shen Luoxi's order, with a smile on his face, "Master, when can you get these medicinal materials?"

Cang Chenru did not answer, but saw the signature at the bottom of the paper. He narrowed his eyes slightly, folded the paper and put it away.

"Two days later, tell me who wants these medicines."

"She is a lady who is full of nobility but wears a veil. As soon as you take a look, you will know that she is not an ordinary person!" The shopkeeper chuckled, "Maybe that lady can become a regular customer in our store!"

Cang Chenru remained silent, his eyes flashing.

Wearing a veil? Could it be his sister-in-law?

It's just that the medicines on this list include good life-saving medicines and some poisons that can kill people. What does Shen Luo Xi want with these medicines?

Cang Yunxuan must be told this matter.

"Did the lady tell you when to get the medicine?" Cang Chenru asked.

"That's not to say..."

Cang Chenru pondered for a moment, "If she comes again, find a way to hold her back."

He wanted to see what the purpose of her sister-in-law was.
