Shen Cong is about to kneel down before his master. He is truly a god to be able to say "the medical treatment fee is extremely high" so confidently.
"..." The eighth princess's face froze.
She indeed heard from the servants of the post house that when Beichi Snow Girl suffered from a strange disease that even the imperial doctors could not cure, she just went to a medicine hall and spent a million taels of silver to buy some kind of elixir and took it and she was cured. The eighth princess also asked the imperial doctor who treated her, and the imperial doctor also said that it was indeed true. Moreover, the third prince was poisoned by an unknown poison a while ago, and the imperial hospital was helpless. He also took pills from a medicine hall, and now he is no longer alive. Serious problem.
The imperial doctor hopes that Princess Mingyu will hurry up and buy an expensive elixir, and she will get better immediately after taking it. Now all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are furious when they hear that the imperial doctor is treating Princess Mingyu again - the door is in trouble. If you go in, your face is ugly and your illness is difficult to cure. Who wants to go? It’s a pity that they, the junior ones, are sent to be tortured in various ways all day long.
Seeing that the eighth princess didn't answer, Mingruo didn't rush her and waited patiently.
The eighth princess calculated in her heart that the total dowry she brought to Donghuan was three million taels of silver. After all, Nanrong was famous for its wealth. Looking at the four countries, this dowry was quite generous among the princesses from all countries. But the eighth princess was very rich. Not satisfied, Xiaojiu got married last year, and the dowry was a full five million taels.
But there was nothing he could do about it. In order to make a face for that dead girl, his father not only promoted Concubine Qing to the rank of noble concubine, but also made Xiaojiu a first-class princess. And his biological mother had long been relegated to the cold palace, so he could get a second-class princess. Being given the title of princess is not easy, and you have to endure it no matter how unwilling you are.
Thinking about the consultation fees paid by the two people before, the Eighth Princess's lips trembled a little: "How much consultation fee does the young master need to treat this young lady's illness?"
"The young lady is in a foreign land and suffers from such a disease. I sympathize with you..." The eighth princess felt a little relieved when she heard what Mingruo said. But what Mingruo said next almost made the eighth princess angry. , "Snow lotus pill costs one and a half million taels of silver. As for the acupuncture and the concoction for soaking the silver acupuncture, there is no need to pay extra. I will give it to the lady."
Mingruo smiles like a child, with an expression that clearly says - look, am I very generous?
"Is your elixir made from fairy grass?" The eighth princess's voice rose a few degrees. If it weren't for the sake of maintaining her image in front of this young master, she would have jumped up.
"Although it's not fairy grass, it's not much different." Ming Ruo still looked calm and calm, "There are two extremely rare medicinal materials in Snow Lotus Pill, one is Flame Heart Lotus Seed, and the other is Millennium Snow Lotus. If the young lady has these two kinds of medicinal materials, I can help you refine them. If you add up all the expenses, the young lady will pay you 10,000 taels of silver."
The Eighth Princess had never heard of the Flame Heart Lotus Seed, but she knew about the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus, which cost only hundreds of thousands of silver per plant. So after calculation, it was more cost-effective to bring her own medicine to treat it.
The Eighth Princess took out a 10,000-tael banknote from her sleeve pocket and put it on the table: "I bring my own medicinal materials."
"Okay." Mingruo nodded, "Miss, should I start acupuncture today, or wait until the medicinal materials are brought before starting treatment?"
"Treat it now." The eighth princess was driven crazy by this disease. She didn't want to wait for a quick recovery.
"Okay, let me go down and get ready." Mingruo collected the banknote, turned around and went to grab some medicine.
Shen Cong followed Mingruo and saw the master opening several medicine cabinets. He didn't even use medicine scales and took out several medicinal materials and mixed them together.
Mingruo handed the prepared medicine to Lao Shen: "Add a bowl of water and boil for a quarter of an hour, then bring it over while it's still hot."
"Yes." Lao Shen took the medicinal materials and went to the backyard to cook them.
Shen Cong didn't think at all that the master was cheating the girl out of her money. After all, the thousand-year-old snow lotus alone is worth hundreds of thousands of silver, and the flame heart lotus seeds are even more valuable. One million taels each. , there is no place to buy it. However, the lady is dressed in an extraordinary way, but I don’t know if she really has the means to buy it, or if she doesn’t know how scarce Flame Heart Lotus Seeds are.
Lao Shen quickly boiled the concoction and brought it to the table. Mingruo dropped twenty-one silver needles into the hot concoction. Now there were already people in twos and threes coming to get the medicine for treatment, and they were received by military doctors who had nothing to do.
Mingruo picked up the medicine bowl filled with silver needles and walked to the back hall: "Miss, please come down with me."
Chunxiang helped the Eighth Princess, whose steps were sloppy, and slowly moved to the back hall.
The concoction was very hot, so Mingruo used small tweezers to hold silver needles and pricked them into various acupuncture points. Not to mention the eighth princess, Shen Cong felt pain just looking at those acupuncture points.
The Eighth Princess gritted her teeth and endured, her lips were bleeding from her bite. Mingruo injected the needle very quickly, thinking silently in her heart - Ninth Princess, this person has inflicted pain on you, today I will help you get back one by one, it can be regarded as a reward. I've avenged you. You are a good girl. I hope you will be reborn in a good family in the next life and will not meet such a vicious sister again...
After a quarter of an hour of acupuncture, Mingruo took off the silver needle. The eighth princess was so painful that she almost collapsed, but soon found that although her head was still a little dizzy, it was no longer spinning like before.
"Is Miss feeling better?" Mingruo asked.
"I'm much better." The Eighth Princess said with joy, "Young master is really a miracle doctor!"
"I am ashamed to be called a miracle doctor." Ming Ruo waved his hands repeatedly, "Miss must find those two medicinal materials within three days, otherwise, before taking Snow Lotus Pill, Miss will have to do acupuncture like this every day. I am really worried. The lady can’t bear it.”
"Don't worry, young master, I... I will definitely come with the medicinal materials on the third day." The eighth princess is very confident. She has seen many snow lotuses in Nanrong, although not all of them are thousands of years old. .
"Okay." Mingruo lowered his eyes and sneered. Si Haochen has been looking for the Flame Heart Lotus Seeds for three years. Where did you get the confidence to get them in three days?
Chunxiang helped the eighth princess get on the carriage, and also found that the princess' steps were much lighter: "Your Royal Highness, this Ming doctor has really good medical skills, and he will definitely be able to cure your illness."
"Yes." The eighth princess nodded, she was also full of confidence in Mr. Ming.
The Eighth Princess leaned on the soft couch. Although this young master was a little thinner, his face was so good-looking and his medical skills were so high. If he could be used by her and always by her side... wouldn't it be beautiful? One thing!
Moreover, Mr. Ming still treats himself with such tenderness and pity without knowing that he is a noble princess. If he knew his true identity, he would definitely be willing to work for him, right?
The Eighth Princess became more and more beautiful as she thought about it. After being ill for so many days, a smile finally appeared on her face. Chunxiang, who was accompanying her, secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the princess smiling.
God knows how difficult the errands are these days. The eighth princess usually likes to punish her servants, but she has intensified her punishment these days. She was slapped twice yesterday, and Chun Ling was even punished to kneel until she couldn't stand up. She accompanied the princess by herself. She fainted before going out.
