After feeding him a glass of water, Ah Er's energy improved a lot. Doctor Xu saw that he was no longer needed here, so he withdrew with discernment.
A'er looked at Mingruo, who was still in the operating room, and seemed to be hesitant to speak. Mingruo understood what he meant in an instant. She didn't have much curiosity and planned to go out and wait for Si Haochen.
"You don't have to avoid it." Si Haochen held Mingruo's wrist and said to Ah Er in a deep voice, "Tell me."
"Master, there is something unusual at the border. Several Beichi troops are gathering from all over to the northwest border." A'er paused for a moment and continued, "My subordinates think that Beichi is plotting to provoke a war."
"Well, you can rest." Beichi sent envoys here while also stationing troops at the border. I'm afraid his plans are not small.
Si Haochen took Mingruo out of the operating room and told Dr. Xu to take care of Ah Er. After returning to the study, Si Haochen gave a few more orders - one was to investigate who was chasing Ah Er; the other was to seize the time to stock up on food and grass.
; some urged Craftsman Lu to forge weapons...
As Ming Ruo listened to the orders being passed down one after another, her heart began to rise - she felt as if the war was about to break out.
"What's wrong?" Si Haochen has temporarily arranged all the preparations for the war.
"Are you going to fight?" Mingruo looked at Si Haochen with a worried look.
"It's just some preparations. Dan Xu may not choose to go to war." Si Haochen gently stroked Mingruo's hair, "Even if it's a war, don't worry, I'll be fine."
"What you say doesn't comfort me." Mingruo knows that no one likes to fight. But when facing challenges, there is a fundamental difference between being dragged into a battle or entering the battle yourself.
"Then what should I do?" Si Haochen looked very distressed.
Mingruo answered the question incorrectly: "You just didn't arrange for anyone to purchase medicines to stop bleeding, analgesia, and anti-inflammatory." Mingruo thought for a moment and then said, "It's almost summer, and we should also prepare some medicines to prevent heatstroke, as well as disinfect wounds.
of alcohol.”
"Okay." Si Haochen nodded and wrote down the various medicinal materials Mingruo mentioned.#@$&
Early the next morning, when Mingruo woke up, she found that Si Haochen was no longer in the house.
While eating breakfast, Mingruo asked, "Has the prince gone to court?"
"The prince did not go to court, he probably went out to do some business." Aunt Dong only knew that the prince did not go to the palace, but she did not know where he went.
"Oh." Mingruo nodded, "Zisu, ask Xunyi to send a letter to a medicine hall, saying that I will not go to the clinic this morning. Find Dr. Xu again, I have something to tell him."
"Yes, Princess." Zi Su followed the order and left.%&(&
After breakfast, Mingruo first gave Dr. Xu a medicine list, indicating the types and quantities of medicinal materials needed, and asked him to help prepare it. After that, he dived into the alchemy pharmacy.
Taking into consideration the operability, Mingruo chose three simple prescriptions with commonly used medicinal materials - two pills and one powder, used for reducing fever, anti-inflammation and hemostasis respectively. She planned to make the finished product in the morning and prepare it in the afternoon.
Go teach some military doctors.
Mingruo quickly refined the required medicine and sent some to Dr. Xu. A'er's trauma was very serious, so he was asked to test the effectiveness of the medicine first.
Seeing that the princess had finished her work, Zi Su came in holding two long brocade boxes: "Princess, my wife, steward Zhou sent these just now. He said that the prince bought them for you and asked the secret guards to send them back in advance.
"
"Let me take a look." Si Haochen went out to do errands early in the morning. What did he buy?
Mingruo opened the brocade box, and inside were two oil-paper umbrellas. Mingruo picked up one and opened it - a cluster of dark purple lilacs was painted on the light purple umbrella, and purple flowers of the same color were also dropped from the bottom of the handle.
tassel.
The surface of the other umbrella is original color, with an old plum blossom painted on it and many petals scattered among it. It is very lively. There is a jade pendant hanging on the handle of the umbrella.
"These two umbrellas are so beautiful." Zi Su praised.
Mingruo didn't expect that she just complained about the ugly umbrellas in the medicine hall yesterday, and Si Haochen remembered it in his heart. When he went out to do errands, he didn't forget to buy two beautiful umbrellas for himself and send them back.
Mingruo looked at the two umbrellas, his eyes getting brighter and brighter. Fighting is very expensive. With Emperor Danxu's style of acting, he will definitely deprive his boyfriend of food and salary. He must make more money.
"Zisu, come with me with your umbrella." Mingruo thought of another good idea to make money.
Following the instructions of the princess, Zi Su threaded the scattered beads, broken bracelets, necklaces, etc. into strings of beads. The princess used needlework to sew these strings of beads to the edge of the umbrella, while also sewing
A gauze headband with some gold and silver thread embroidery.
After some decoration by the princess, the originally beautiful oil-paper umbrella became even more pleasing to the eye, making people reluctant to take their eyes away from it.
Mingruo was very satisfied with the two umbrellas that had been 'upgraded'. They were definitely more sparkling than the gorgeous props used by the ancient ladies in previous lives to take photos. These beads were all made of real gold, silver, pearls and gems. Speaking of props,
The round fan decorated with beads, silk flowers, and bright diamonds must also be arranged.
"Zisu, have someone call Shopkeeper Wu from Yunzhuang Building and ask him to bring a skilled craftsman from the jewelry shop with him when he comes." Mingruo stretched out.
"yes."
Shopkeeper Wu heard that his boss asked him to take the craftsmen to the palace, and he knew that the princess must have thought of some new idea to make money. And shopkeeper Wu’s new idea was directly equivalent to the money rolling in. Shopkeeper Wu was tight
Hurrying quickly, we arrived at the palace before lunch. Mingruo thought that shopkeeper Wu would come only in the afternoon, but he didn't expect him to come so quickly.
Shopkeeper Wu's eyes widened when he saw Ming Ruo's upgraded oil-paper umbrella - not to mention those ladies and gentlemen, even he wanted to buy one when he saw such a delicate and unique umbrella.
Mingruo handed the umbrella to the craftsman and asked him to take a closer look: "You can also put some silver bells or feathers in these bead strings, which will have a better effect."
"I'll remember it." The craftsman nodded while looking at it.
"We have launched this kind of umbrella, and other stores will soon follow suit. First of all, the umbrella and the round fan must be the same as the clothes and jewelry sold by Yunzhuanglou, and must be marked with unique marks and numbers. Secondly, when making them, we must pay attention to the
In line with the new summer clothes, it is best to produce a few limited edition suits."
"Okay, okay, this is a great idea." Shopkeeper Wu now fully understands what a 'limited edition' is. Now you can imagine how many noble ladies in the imperial capital will compete for this umbrella and fan once they are launched.
Rush to buy. After all, spring hunting is coming soon. It would be so eye-catching to show off with such an umbrella and fan.
"The fan can be taken back to you as a sample, but the umbrella can only be written down by the craftsman, and you can think about it when you go back." Don't just let others take the gift from your boyfriend, otherwise, you will be taken care of by the family.
.
"Okay." Shopkeeper Wu played with the gorgeous round fan, while the craftsmen carefully studied the beads and paintings on the umbrella.
