As soon as Feng Yu Heng said this, Qing Yu understood. It turned out that her young miss had set up another trap. Her young miss was really … too evil.
Xuan Tianming smiled as he calculated, "If the jade is lost, the thief will naturally be found. If the jade is recovered, we'll have to ask for another sum of compensation. That eighty million taels can be considered as compensation. "
Feng Yu Heng was a bit worried, "Eighty million taels isn't a small amount. Can she do it? I don't think she can take out that much money in a short time. She even said that she wanted to gather it, but the fifty million taels banknotes are readily available. Why don't we just ask for fifty million taels? Don't push her too far. Who knows, we might have another chance to cheat her in the future. "
Xuan Tianming nodded, "We'll do as my beloved concubine says."
Qing Yu rubbed her forehead. How did these two decide on this matter? Did they agree? However, when she thought about it again, the Ninth Prince and Princess Ji An had already spoken. Who would dare to disagree? So what if he was the Prefect of Lan Zhou? Since they were in the capital, they shouldn't think of themselves as high ranking officials. Any random official would be more powerful than a Prefect.
The two drank another cup of tea. Feng Yu Heng said a few words to Qing Yu before leaving with Xuan Tianming. The streets were still bustling with noise and excitement, but she was a bit unhappy. She pouted and said, "It's not good for people to be too good-looking. They attract so much attention even when they're shopping. It's not easy to see your identity when you don't wear a mask, but your face is really a disaster! "She sighed," Is there any way to avoid it? " As she spoke, she pointed at the young ladies and young women who were looking in their direction as they walked. There were even some who were shameless enough to follow them. It was really a headache.
Xuan Tianming felt good about himself and told her, "That means your taste in men is pretty good."
A certain someone was unhappy, "My taste in men? Xuan Tianming, did I choose you? I didn't have a choice! Besides, if I wanted to choose, your face definitely wouldn't be my first choice. "
"Oh?" She, who had always been very confident in her looks, was puzzled. "If someone like me isn't your first choice, then who can you choose first with your eyes?"
"Seventh Brother!" She answered matter-of-factly, "In this world, is there anyone more irresistible than Seventh Brother?"
Xuan Tianming lost. He just knew that once he met Old Seventh, his face would not have any status. Forget it, forget it. He had acted earlier! Now that he thought about it, he really had to thank that arranged marriage many years ago. Although he was very resistant at the time, now that he thought about it, he really got a great deal. Of course, he also had to thank that great battle in the northwest. He knew very well that if he hadn't met this girl in the mountains of the northwest and had their first contact, this girl might not have taken a fancy to him. And if this girl didn't like him, he believed that with Feng Yu Heng's personality, even if the marriage was decreed by the palace, she would still be able to ruin it.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the little girl covered her mouth and snickered. However, a certain person wrapped his arms around her neck and warned her, "You're not allowed to fall in love with someone else. Seventh Brother is a god. You can look at him, but you can forget about blaspheming him. "
She nodded vigorously, "Don't worry. Seventh Brother is meant to be worshipped. I'm very clear about this."
Xuan Tianming bitterly smiled in his heart. It wasn't that he couldn't see through Old Seven's thoughts. If those thoughts were placed on someone else, he definitely wouldn't give them a good face. However, it was Xuan Tianhua that he couldn't resist or stay away from. Just like Feng Yu Heng said, the Seventh Brother was meant to be worshipped. Since it was him, Xuan Tianming, he also thought the same.
After the two of them left Nirvana Pavilion, they headed towards Feng Yu Heng's antique shop. When they arrived, they didn't stay for long. They only walked around inside and outside before leaving and heading towards Hundred Herb Hall.
Among the several businesses, Feng Yu Heng was most interested in Hundred Herb Hall. In other words, Hundred Herb Hall wasn't just a business in her eyes, but a career. It was the foundation of her life in this era, aside from her identity as an imperial family. Before she went to the North, she focused on training a group of doctors and taught them a lot of medical knowledge. Later on, Yao Xian was in charge of this place, so he put in even more effort to impart medical knowledge. As a result, the doctors in Hundred Herb Hall could be said to be equivalent to half of the doctors of the 21st century. Although they weren't too advanced, they could treat the most basic things very well. Of course, there was also Ghost Doctor Song Kang here. With Song Kang here, many external injuries that required surgery could be treated. Hundred Herb Hall's position in the hearts of the people was about to surpass the imperial hospital in the palace.
When Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming arrived, they ran into two doctors who were carrying medicine boxes. She went forward and asked: "Where did you come from?"
The two doctors didn't expect Feng Yu Heng to suddenly appear. They were stunned for a moment, but they quickly recognized her and wanted to salute and pay their respects. For them, Feng Yu Heng was not only their boss, but also their master. No matter how old they were, when they saw their master, they had to kowtow.
Feng Yu Heng quickly supported them. No matter what they said, she didn't allow them to salute in front of Hundred Herb Hall. She only quietly said: "Don't make a scene. Let's talk inside."
As they talked, they entered Hundred Herb Hall. One of them said: "We just came back from the Feng manor and saw master Feng's illness."
The other continued: "Master Feng paid the medical fee. Although he wasn't very willing to pay, he didn't default. However, his injury is too serious, and it's already been a year. I fear that even if sir Song Kang were to act, he might not be able to reconnect it. "
"Moreover, just reconnecting it is useless. Using the medical techniques that senior Yao taught us, we need to reconstruct his nerves. This is something that we cannot do. Perhaps … perhaps if senior Yao or boss personally acts, there might be some hope. "
Feng Yu Heng waved her hand. She knew that this would be the result. An injury that had been there for a year, and it was in that place. How could it be healed? Reconstructing his nerves was easy to say, but difficult to do. It was fine if his nerves hadn't died, but if they had already died, even if they were sent back to the 21st century, there was nothing that could be done. "It's fine as long as you do your best. He knows his own situation. I already told him not to have too much hope."
As she spoke, she walked into the back room of Hundred Herb Hall. A worker had already reported this to the shopkeeper, Wang Lin. At this moment, Wang Lin came out to greet her. When he saw Feng Yu Heng, he was extremely excited. Ignoring her, he immediately knelt down. "This little one heard that boss had returned to the capital. This little one wanted to kowtow to you, but I was afraid of disturbing you. Senior Yao said that boss would come to see us sooner or later, so we should just wait patiently. Boss, you're finally here. "
Wang Lin had a lot of feelings for Feng Yu Heng. If it wasn't for Feng Yu Heng's promotion, he wouldn't know where he would be now. However, he was now the shopkeeper of Hundred Herb Hall. He was a famous person in the capital. With Feng Yu Heng's background, anyone who saw him on the street had to give him some face. Even those high ranking officials didn't dare to give him any face. They were all very polite when they came to get medicine. Wang Lin knew that all of this was given to him by Feng Yu Heng. Thus, he wanted to repay her, so he did his best to help her take care of Hundred Herb Hall. He also did his best to expand his business in the other provinces. Now, with his efforts, there were already countless Hundred Herb Halls in Dashun. The furthest one had already extended to the westernmost province of Yu.
Feng Yu Heng stayed at Hundred Herb Hall the longest. She was also itching to show off her skills, so she helped take care of a few patients. Then, she took out a lot of western and Chinese medicine from her space and gave them to Wang Lin. In addition, she told Wang Lin and the doctors present that if a patient needed an intramuscular injection or infusion, they could immediately send someone to the princess's residence to find her. She shouldn't be leaving the capital in a short period of time. Everyone was overjoyed.
It wasn't until evening that Hundred Herb Hall closed for business. Xuan Tianming sat in the east and invited the shopkeepers of Hundred Herb Hall, the jewelry shop, and the antique shop to set up a few tables at the Refined Deity Building. These commoners were able to serve Princess Ji An, and they were also able to receive a banquet personally bestowed by the Ninth Prince. They were even able to drink at the same table. All of them were moved to the point of tears.
While they were enjoying themselves, on the other side of the Lu Manor, in a rather remote courtyard, there was a woman standing in the middle of the courtyard, sighing incessantly.
To the side, a maidservant earnestly consoled her: "Eldest young miss, don't be too sad. This time, it's because you ate fish yesterday, that's why the taste is even stronger today. Next time, when we go out, it'll be fine as long as we don't eat anything fishy."
The eldest young miss of the Lu Family, Lü Ping, was the Lu Family's only young miss born of a concubine. She was 17 years old this year and had already passed two years of marriageable age; however, nobody showed any interest in her. The Lu manor seemed to have hidden her. They never spoke too much about her, and they never allowed her to go out. Some people said that the eldest young miss of the Lu Family was a rarely seen beauty. Compared to Feng Chen Yu, who knew how many times more beautiful she was. The Lu Family was hiding her as a secret character, waiting for her to amaze the world. There were also some people who said that the eldest young miss of the Lu Family was disabled, so the Lu Family did not allow her to go out and lose face.
However, nobody knew that Lü Ping was indeed a rare beauty. Not to mention Feng Chen Yu, she was not even the slightest bit inferior to Feng Zhao Lian. But she had a hidden illness. From birth, she had a body odor, and this odor became heavier and heavier as she grew older. Although they later found that as long as she did not eat anything special, it would not be too obvious. In addition to this, she would use makeup to cover it up, so it could be covered up a bit. But in the end, this was not a cure. Over the years, the Lu Family had searched for all sorts of famous doctors, but there was nobody that could treat Lü Ping's illness.
Of course, it was not as if the Lu Family did not think of divine doctor Yao Xian. Unfortunately, when Yao Xian was in the capital, the Lu Family was just a low-ranking official. They could not afford to invite a doctor from the imperial physicians' hospital. In addition to this, they did not want the world to know about it, thus they did not dare think about it.
Originally, she was the daughter of a concubine, so having a bit of a hidden illness was not a problem. The daughter of a concubine did not expect her to be outstanding, and it was not as if the Lu Family did not think of giving up on Lü Ping. But nobody thought that Lü Ping would become more and more beautiful. When she reached the age of 15, she really was as the rumors said. She was a rare beauty.
How could Lu Song be willing to give up on such a beautiful daughter. He simply hid her at home and thought of a way to continue searching for a famous doctor. He hid her for another two years.
Lü Ping sighed heavily and helplessly said, "If it wasn't for father insisting that I attend the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, I would not take the risk to go out and choose jewelry. But Jian 'er, look at me. How am I supposed to go? I'm afraid that I will overreach myself. If this illness is exposed, what face will the Lu Family have left? "
The little servant girl did not know what her master was thinking and could only sigh along with him. As she sighed, she heard her young miss mutter: "Everyone says that Imperial Daughter Ji An is a true divine doctor. Her medical skills came from the ancient Persia; however, I wonder, if I went to ask her for help with my illness, could she treat it?"
