Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

Ding Xinji thanked Ye Jintang again and again, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

"I am very happy that General Ding did not blame me for what happened today. I will have someone send some of my best medicinal herbs to help Sister recuperate. Although the detoxification was relatively smooth this time, it did cause some damage to Sister's body."

"I'll have to trouble you, Madam."

As he spoke, Ding Xinji bowed to Ye Jintang again.

After coming out of the general's mansion and getting on the carriage, Ye Jintang realized that she had been sweating all over and her clothes were almost soaked.

"Go back to the palace."

"My queen, do you want to learn other medical and poison techniques?"

Liuli, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly asked Ye Jintang.

"Haven't I been learning medicine and poison techniques from you?"

"My lady, what I know is just the basics. If you want to learn more about medicine and poison, you need a more powerful teacher."

"Like my father, he was a disciple of Mr. Mu Huaichuan, the outer sect elder of the Divine Doctor Valley. The same is true for Imperial Physician Yao. Mr. Mu was the most powerful of the six outer sect elders of the Divine Doctor Valley, and his medical skills were unparalleled. Unfortunately, he has gone to travel around the world and is not in the capital."

"Recently, I heard that Master Mu's sister, Aunt Mu, has come to the capital. Aunt Mu is not only good at medicine, but she is even better than Master Mu in making poisons. However, she has only accepted two apprentices over the years, and neither of them is registered under the name of the Divine Doctor Valley. According to Aunt Mu, those who are not talented enough cannot become disciples of the Divine Doctor Valley."

Hearing the words "Valley of Divine Doctors", Ye Jintang immediately searched for relevant information in his mind. Unfortunately, the Valley of Divine Doctors was not mentioned many times in the original work, and was only mentioned a few times.

In the later period of the original novel, Ye Yanran became the empress dowager and was seriously ill twice. The book mentioned that it was the disciples sent by the Valley of Divine Doctors who saved Ye Yanran's life.

Ye Yanran wanted to keep the disciples of the Divine Doctor Valley in the palace as imperial physicians, but was rejected. She tried to force them to stay, but the disciples of the Divine Doctor Valley disappeared the next day.

In the original novel, the Valley of Divine Doctors is quite mysterious. The outer disciples alone possess superb medical skills. I wonder how powerful the medical skills of the inner disciples in the Valley of Divine Doctors are.

If she learns all the medical skills from the Divine Doctor Valley, maybe she can even prolong her life.

"Liuli, can you introduce me to Master Mu? I want to learn medicine from her."

"Of course, Madam, I will get off the carriage at the intersection ahead and go find Master Mu. As long as Madam can become a disciple of the Divine Doctor Valley, the benefits she will gain will be more than just learning medical skills."

Liuli smiled mysteriously at Ye Jintang and did not continue talking. Everything depended on whether Master Mu would accept Ye Jintang as her disciple.

"Then I'll wait for your good news."

Ye Jintang returned to the palace alone, and Nanny Zhang had been waiting at the door for a long time.

"How did the prince deal with Muxiang?"

"Muxiang was dragged to the front yard of the palace and beaten to death with clubs. The palace gate was wide open during the execution. Many people passing by stood at the gate and watched the excitement from afar. I guess the news had spread throughout the capital by now."

It might not be surprising to see a maid or servant being beaten to death in other people's homes in the capital, after all, such things happen frequently. However, it is really curious that the Qin Palace beat a maid to death in such a high-profile manner.

In addition, since it involved Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, the matter spread rapidly in the capital as if it had wings.

Some time ago, it was revealed that Imperial Noble Consort Dehui had treated Prince Qin harshly. Less than a month later, it was reported that Imperial Noble Consort Dehui had sent someone to poison Prince Qin's wife. Such explosive news quickly occupied the gossip stalls in the streets and alleys.

No one dared to discuss the affairs of the royal family openly, but if they said a few words in secret, it would not bring disaster to themselves.

"Where are the big maids?"

Ye Jintang returned to her room and immediately asked Luzhu to prepare hot water for her as she wanted to take a shower and change her clothes.

"The prince said that the maid is under the princess's care, and asked the princess to deal with her as she sees fit."

Ye Jintang, who was changing his clothes, paused and said with a smile, "The prince is good at pushing the responsibility away, so I will take care of it."

"Let the four of them kneel down at the door first, and wait until I finish bathing and changing clothes."

"Yes."

As a woman, Ye Jintang knew very well what these maids were planning. They just wanted to dress themselves up nicely to attract Xiao Mo's attention. If they were lucky enough, they would become a concubine and never have to worry about food and clothing in their lives.

Unfortunately, they did not see the truth clearly. Xiao Mo could not protect himself at the moment, so how could he focus all his attention on love? If that were the case, he would have died at the hands of Imperial Noble Consort Dehui long ago.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Ye Jintang felt a little more refreshed.

"Call them all in."

Ye Jintang, sitting on the Arhat bed, drank a cup of herbal tea and looked up at the four maids kneeling in front of him.

When I saw them at noon, they were all still bright and beautiful, but now they were all wilted like eggplants hit by frost. Their originally delicate makeup was washed away by sweat and turned into a cat-like face. Even their clothes were stained with dust.

"Madam Zhang, if maids break the rules, this is how they are usually punished."

"My lady, the palace has a clear rule that any maid in the backyard who wears jewelry or clothes that exceed the rules will be sold immediately. No servant in the palace is allowed to have any evil thoughts."

When the four maids kneeling on the ground heard that they were going to be sold, they finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Please have mercy on us, Madam Queen, and give us a chance to mend our ways. We will do our best in the future and never dare to have any small thoughts again."

"It's too late for me to show mercy now. Even if I spare you now and demote you to servants, you will not be grateful to me and may even resent me. Instead of that, it's better to let you hate me from now on."

Ye Jintang knew very well that these maids, who were used to a life of luxury, had already become ambitious. If she drove them away and kept them in the mansion as servants, they would all become time bombs. Who knew when they would do something bad to her out of resentment?

Leaving so many hidden dangers for yourself is really not worth it. It is better to solve them right from the beginning to avoid trouble in the future.

"Madam Zhang, take the person away."

"Yes."

The four big maids wanted to plead for themselves, but Nanny Zhang did not give them the opportunity to disturb Ye Jintang. Several maids came in and directly covered their mouths and dragged them out.

Without Ye Jintang's instructions, Nanny Zhang found four maids who were usually quite honest to serve Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo, who had been busy in the front yard, did not come to find Ye Jintang immediately after receiving the news that Ye Jintang had returned.

The incident of Muxiang's poisoning could be made into a big deal, so even if he wanted to go see Ye Jintang, he could only wait until he finished the work at hand.

As soon as they got busy, the sun was setting. Xiao Mo sat in a wheelchair and walked towards the backyard. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly came from the palace and said that Emperor Jing had summoned him to the palace.

"My father is well-informed. I thought the earliest he could summon me to the palace would be tomorrow."

"My Lord, would you like to tell the princess?"

Jiang Heng pushed Xiao Mo and took a look at the yard not far away.

"We'll talk about it when I get back."
