I don't want to be the favorite concubine of this palace anymore

So in the end, the ten carts of food disappeared, and the group of men in black also disappeared with them.

Li Rui and Yusup searched for a long time but couldn't find it. The environment here is complicated and there is desert around, which is very suitable for hiding people and objects.

Yusup was extremely angry. He didn't expect that he would lose his food just as he arrived in Xinjiang.

In the end, he had no choice but to give up. The next day, Li Rui finally sent the person to the border between the two countries.

He said to Princess Wenhua with a calm expression: "Take care, my dear sister. I will say goodbye now."

Princess Wenhua didn't like Li Rui in the first place, and she didn't say a few words to him along the way, but she still pretended to say, "Thank you, Third Brother, for sending me off. You've worked hard."

Li Rui nodded, then bowed to Yusup and said goodbye, watching them enter Western Xinjiang. Then he turned around with his guards.

At the entrance of a village, Li Rui saw the group of men in black.

"Master, I have asked General Yin's men to take away the food."

Li Rui was very satisfied. In fact, the border troops would be short of food and clothing every winter. Wouldn't it be better to use the food in the army of his own country? Why should he give it to Xijiang for free?

"Well done. Did you come here in advance to find out the news about the Ice Spirit Snow Lotus?"

"Reporting to the master, after much investigation, we have found out that the Ice Spirit Snow Lotus grows on a very high snowy mountain. If we want to go up the mountain, we still need to be fully prepared."

Li Rui nodded: "Okay, let's prepare the supplies today. It would be best if we can find an experienced guide nearby to lead the way. We will set off tomorrow."

-

In the Furong Courtyard of the Prince Rui's Mansion, Xiaoqin heard that An Muxi's father came to find her and asked for two hundred taels of silver before breaking off all ties with her. She sighed.

"Master, I didn't expect that your life experience was quite rough. Maybe your biological parents are really high-ranking officials?"

An Muxi smiled indifferently: "Who cares about his status? I don't want to look for any family anymore. Aren't we living well now?"

Xiaoqin thought about it and agreed.

"But if it were me, I would still want to know who my family is."

An Muxi was helpless: "I can only let fate take its course. After so many years in the vast sea of ​​people, no one has come to find me. Maybe they have already forgotten that they have a daughter like me."

At this time, Qiu Shuang came in and said, "Master, Gu Feng and Gu Lei went to investigate Jishitang and Doctor Lin's family. They found out a few things.

First, Dr. Lin often used inferior and spoiled medicinal materials in his clinic and passed them off as genuine ones for his patients. There had even been accidents during this period, where someone was almost killed.

Second, Prince Su's concubine Lin originally had a childhood sweetheart fiancé at home.

Later, she met Prince Su by chance and was favored by him. She abandoned her fiancé and entered Prince Su's mansion. But she still had a connection with her fiancé and would meet him occasionally. "

An Muxi said happily: "Nice! Now there is a solution."

Xiaoqin has become accustomed to the nonsense that often comes out of An Muxi's mouth, and Qiu Shuang is a little confused about what Nice means.

She ordered Qiu Shuang to find a way to reveal the matter of Aunt Lin and her fiancé to Prince Su's wife.

Then he used his own method to retaliate against them. He spent some money to find a few people to take a medicine that An Muxi made herself that made people look very weak, and then sent them to Jishidiang for treatment.

Sure enough, the conditions of several people worsened after taking Jishidiang's medicine. Their families went to the Jingzhao prefect to sue the black-hearted medical clinic Jishidiang. The Jingzhao prefect sent people to investigate and found that there were many moldy and deteriorated low-quality medicinal materials in Jishidiang's warehouse.

Jishidiang was immediately sealed. Many victims heard the news and went to Jingzhao Prefecture to report the case. For a time, Jishidiang became a black-hearted medical clinic that everyone wanted to punish.

Lord Gu, the prefect of Jingzhao, asked Doctor Lin to double the compensation for the victims' medical expenses and lost work time. Doctor Lin could not raise so much money at the moment, so he had to transfer Jishiditang at a low price.

An Muxi received the news and had an idea. She asked Gu Feng and Gu Lei to pretend to be ordinary businessmen and negotiate the price with Doctor Lin. Doctor Lin was in urgent need of money, and his eldest daughter could not be contacted for some reason, so he could only sell Jishitang to Gu Feng at a low price of 3,000 taels. Of course, it was An Muxi who went to the government to handle the transfer.

The group of troublesome patients were cured in the Song's Clinic, and the reputation of the Song's Clinic was completely established. In addition, the pills sold before were cheap and effective, and the reputation of the Song's Clinic for its miraculous doctors who could bring people back to health and its kind-hearted doctors was also established.

On the other hand, Prince Su knew that his favorite concubine Lin had already had a fiancé, and had secretly met with that man after entering the palace. He was so angry that he slapped her several times. Then he saw the illegitimate son she gave birth to, and the more he looked at him, the less he looked like his own child.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, Aunt Lin will no longer have a good life.

She was sent directly to the farm by the Princess Su, and her son, who was less than two years old, was also sent to be raised under the name of the Princess Su. How could the Princess treat him well?

At this point, the problems at Jishidiang had been completely resolved, and An Muxi also got a shop in a good location at a low price.

The shops on this street are basically of similar size. An Muxi went to Jishiditang and took a look. It was about the same size as the Song's Medical Clinic. There was also a small courtyard at the back with a two-story building.

She had an idea before. She had many recipes for medical cosmetics and skin care, and knew some methods of making rouge and powder. She also mixed the skin care products she used herself. Several maids also used them frequently, and now their skin was fair and delicate.

Now that I have a shop, I can open a beauty store and sell skin care and makeup. Banxia and Chenxiang happen to have nothing to do, so they can come over to help. Xiaoqin is very sociable and is suitable for sales. Perfect!

An Muxi did it right away. She spent some money to hire someone to clean up Jishiditang inside and out. The medicinal herbs that could still be used were sent directly to the Song Clinic, and those that could not be used were thrown away.

The first floor of the two-story building in the back courtyard was cleaned out and turned into two VIP rooms and a storage room. She planned to introduce the modern VIP concept so that those who purchased high-end products or applied for VIP cards could come here for care.

The courtyard was not wasted, and the original stove could still be retained. An Muxi planned to build a sunshade, place some green plants, make a tea table, and put a few tables for guests to relax and entertain.

In short, the goal is to make guests feel at home and in a good mood.

The second floor was cleaned up and made into a bedroom, so Xiaoqin and the others can live here. Maybe she can come and live here in the future too.

A drugstore definitely needs to be renovated, so she asked the palace's housekeeper to help her find a reliable decoration team. She designed the store name and furnishings herself, and the decoration team renovated the store in just one week.

The signboard has also been changed, and the name is now "Huanyan Beauty Store".

When An Muxi went to inspect the store, she was excited. This store was completely wholly owned by her, and the furnishings and layout inside were all designed by herself. The feeling was completely different from when she first bought the Song's Medical Clinic.

As soon as you enter the store, you will feel that it is warm and full of romantic elements, which is very much in line with women's aesthetics. There is also a special rest area with many mahogany shelves similar to bookshelves, which can be used to place some product introductions and samples in the future.

She also thoughtfully brought some of her own sketchbooks and placed them in the backyard and front hall lounge area to entertain customers.

Surrounding it is a circle of mahogany display racks for displaying authentic products. She specially painted all the display cabinets pink and placed some small potted plants and green plants there.

The entire store is very different from other rouge shops. The decoration style alone is very attractive. An Muxi believes that the skin care products she developed will definitely sell well after they are put on display.

After inspecting the complete cosmetics store, An Muxi returned to Prince Rui's Mansion happily.

In the Hibiscus Courtyard, An Muxi said with a smile: "Xiaoqin, I have arranged a good job for you."
