The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

After listening to Yun Mujiu's words, the onlookers thought about it and began to whisper with the people around them, accusing the people in the Xu Mansion of being dishonest and discussing Xu Houshan's dirty thoughts.

Xu Houshan wanted to argue, but he couldn't beat Yun Mujiu's speed of speaking. His voice was hoarse due to injury and he couldn't speak as loudly as Yun Mujiu's.

He opened his mouth and his lips moved up and down, but no sound came out of his throat. Instead, his nostrils twitched and the whole person was breathing violently.

The three servants who wanted to speak had ferocious looks on their faces. Their hands were held by the servants of the Herb Hall, and their mouths were covered with rags. They wanted to speak but couldn't.

Yun Mujiu saw that Xu Houshan and the others were full of resentment, and said with a smile - "You don't want to say that you have any physical discomfort after taking the medicine from my Herb Hall, do you?"

Xu Houshan was stunned, and his already small eyes could not be widened any further.

How come Yun Mujiu had told him the move he wanted to perform in advance! Damn it, could it be that Yun Mujiu was really a monster who could see through people's hearts!

Yun Mujiu remained calm and looked at Xu Houshan as if he was a dead person.

Xu Houshan's expression changed several times. He lowered his head, coughed twice, and then put his fat hand against his chest.

"Ahem... I feel really unwell. I was already feeling unwell, and after taking the medicine that my servant bought from the herbal shop these past two days, I feel even worse."

The two big men carrying the stretcher echoed and said that their masters had new discomfort symptoms because of the medicine they took from the herbal medicine shop.

Yun Mujiu signaled the servant to let go of the boy. The three men were released, took a deep breath, and immediately responded to their master's call. While they were anxiously concerned about Xu Houshan's health, they cried and howled like wolves and ghosts, as if their biological father was gone.

The crowd was in an uproar; they had never heard of any problem with Herb Hall's medicine.

Since Yun Mujiu took over the Herb Hall, there has been no negative news about the Herb Hall. Instead, it has become the most popular medicine shop in the capital, and its reputation in Zhongyue has been rising. But now some people say that there are problems with the medicines in the Herb Hall!

Yun Mujiu was not in a hurry to explain. He looked at the two big men and gave them a kind reminder.

"You can put Lord Xu down first, lest he fall down because you can't lift him up."

Everyone thought Yun Mujiu was concerned about Xu Houshan, but they changed their minds when they heard Yun Mujiu's words. She said, "Don't let Master Xu fall. It would be bad if he bumps into the patients in the hall. Wouldn't Master Xu be killing people?"

Everyone thought: Princess Ye's words are so mean. Isn't she saying in disguise that Lord Xu is a pig that will crush other people's bodies?

Xu Houshan looked embarrassed and quickly asked someone to put down the stretcher. The two big men secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Houshan sat on a stretcher on the floor, still looking depressed, but actually trying to hide the guilty expression on his face. You know, Yun Mujiu had predicted his plan just now, and he almost got exposed. If he couldn't hold back his expression and was discovered by everyone - his guilty expression, wouldn't all his efforts be wasted.

As soon as Yun Mujiu waved his hand, the waiter at Herb Hall tacitly brought over a chair with a backrest.

Yun Mujiu sat there with graceful movements. Even her simple clothes could not hide her elegant temperament. She looked like she was ready to try a case in court.

A strange look flashed across the faces of Xu Houshan and his group. Why didn't Yun Mujiu look guilty or afraid at all?

Yun Mujiu said calmly: "Master Xu, are you done? If you have any other symptoms of discomfort, just tell me."

Xu Houshan shrank his head and stiffened his neck as he continued, "Two days ago, my servant came to the Herb Hall to buy some medicine. After I took it, I felt unwell all over. At that time, I thought I had a stomachache. I never thought that there was something wrong with the medicine in the Herb Hall."

"I feel sick in my heart, my chest hurts, my whole body aches, and sometimes I feel like I can't breathe and I'm dying! I feel like I'm going to die soon!"

The other five servants in the Xu residence followed up and informed everyone how serious Xu Houshan's discomfort was.

Yun Mujiu said "hmm", took the tea handed to him by Shopkeeper Wang, and drank it leisurely.

At this time, someone in the crowd began to speak.

"I didn't expect it! The fact that Herb Hall's medicine has problems has finally been exposed!"

"Shouldn't medicine be used to save lives? How come it almost caused someone to die from discomfort?"

"This time, even the rich and powerful officials had problems after taking the medicine. Next time, ordinary people like us who can only afford cheap medicine will suffer even worse consequences! Sooner or later, more people will have problems after taking medicine and the news will be disclosed!"

Several people in the crowd became more and more excited, but there were also many people who stood on the side of Herb Hall.

"The medicine from Herb Hall is so good, when has it ever gone wrong? I think they took something else, but they blamed it on the Herb Hall's medicine boss!"

"Medicine is poisonous to some extent. Who can guarantee that there will be no side effects after taking medicine? And is there any evidence to prove that it was the medicine from Herb Hall that caused the problem?"

"What's the difference between an official and an ordinary person? The owner of Herb Hall said it when it first opened that the medicines in Herb Hall are good for any patient, but there are some differences in the strength of the medicines."

Yun Mujiu put down his teacup and continued what the commoner said in a strong voice: "Yes, although the medicines in Herb Hall vary in price, we will never fool you anyway."

"I have said it before, not only in Herb Hall, but also in Laurel House and Hundred Flowers Garden. There are things of different price ranges for everyone to take according to their needs. The things themselves do not have any quality issues."

Yun Mujiu glanced around and accurately caught the few people who had just spoken ill of Herb Hall.

"You said that Herb Hall discriminated against patients. They even dared to persecute officials, not to mention the lives of ordinary people. Do you mean to say that the medicines bought by Herb Hall vary from person to person, and will harm those who are in the most disadvantaged position?"

Silence, total silence. The few people who had been arguing the loudest just now did not dare to say a word. They did not dare to respond directly to Princess Ye's harsh question.

They could vaguely say some bad things about Herbal Hall, but they could not make exact statements to condemn Herbal Hall without any evidence. That would be too serious and could easily lead to gossip.

Yun Mujiu choked on Xu Houshan's supporters and slapped the handle of the pear wood chair with his big hand.

He then asked, "If I really differentiate patients based on their social status and use different medicines to fool people of different classes, then what do you think of the free medicines that I let Herb Hall allocate every month?"

"How many people who need medicine but cannot afford it have benefited from it. Although the broken pieces of medicine may not look that good, they still have the efficacy, which is beneficial to patients. For several months, why haven't any people who have benefited from it complained that the medicine is not good or effective?"
