The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy

Nonsense!

Emperor Hong Jing opened his mouth to scold, but as the empress, the mother of a country, how could she leave the palace at will?

But thinking of the emperor sleeping on the bed, he closed his eyes and said, "Cui Jing, check, where is Yuxi Village?"

Cui Jing guessed the emperor's intention and immediately understood his plan. He quickly checked and reported back, "Your Majesty, the letter from the miracle doctor was sent from the government office in Wutong Town, and it was sent by the official post. Wutong Town is under the jurisdiction of Ma County, Yuanzhou! It is adjacent to the Great Desert in the north of the desert and is geographically remote. If you want to go from the imperial capital to Yuanzhou, the fastest way is by water, which takes about half a month!"

Emperor Hong Jing frowned, "How many days will it take to deliver the expedited letter to Wutong Town?"

"If we send a letter by carrier pigeon, it will take at least seven days to get around."

There was a brief silence in the inner hall.

The Queen walked up to Emperor Hong Jing and for the first time showed her unyielding strength in front of him, "The Emperor wants to send a message to Wutong Town, asking someone to deliver the Hundred Herbs. It will take seven days to go there, and at least half a month to return. I'm afraid Qing'er can't wait for one more day. This time, I will definitely go. When I come back, I will let the Emperor sentence me!"

Emperor Hong Jing looked at her deeply and said, "Pass on my order. Da Rui has been hit by frequent natural disasters recently, and foreign enemies have frequently harassed the border. In order to pray for Da Rui and the people of Da Rui, the Queen will set off for the Royal Temple tomorrow to fast and worship Buddha for two months!"

The queen was stunned for a moment, tears welled up in her eyes, and she said loudly, "I will definitely live up to your Majesty's wishes!"

According to the royal ancestral system of all dynasties, concubines in the harem are not allowed to leave the palace easily, and the same applies to the empress.

Unless accompanying the king on a trip or participating in a large royal sacrifice.

Now that the Emperor has personally issued an order, the Empress can leave the palace in the name of praying for blessings, and neither the officials in the harem nor the front hall can object.

"Empress, you must come back in two months, no matter what the situation is." Emperor Hong Jing walked to the sandalwood bed, his eyes fell on the weak and sleeping face of the young boy, gentle, pitying, and guilty, "You and I are Qing'er's parents, and we are also the emperor and queen of Da Rui."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I understand!" As the empress, every word and action of hers is closely related to the country and the people of Da Rui, so she cannot be willful.

The emperor has to bear tremendous pressure behind his back if he allows her to do so this time.

Not all civil and military officials in the court support the prince.

In addition to her Qing'er, the emperor has five other sons. Because Qing'er has been weak and sickly since childhood, other factions have never stopped secretly taking actions over the years.

Just wait for your son to die young and then the new prince will ascend the throne.

The queen's eyes became more determined.

Her Qing'er must not die! She will never give up the position of Crown Prince!

The emperor is the ruler of the world and must put the country first, but in her heart, the most important thing is always her son!

She will fight for Qing'er in everything that belongs to him!

The emperor gave the order, and the next day, the empress left the palace in a sedan chair, accompanied by her maids and imperial guards, and left the imperial city in a grand manner.

After leaving the city, the blessing team continued to march towards the royal temple. At the end of the team, a carriage left the team at a fork in the road and sped in another direction.

……

"It's too much to bully others! It's just too much to bully others!"

In the backyard of Sifang Pharmacy, the old doctor was so angry that he was blowing his beard and glaring, cursing loudly.

"I expected that the Hundred-phase Grass would be very popular and attract people to grab it, but it's the first time in my life that someone has snatched away everything from people so quickly! How shameless!"

"Don't worry, I will send a letter to the capital later and tell Qian Jin about this. He is very optimistic about Baixiang Tea. If he is willing to help, it should not be difficult to suppress the Chen family. At worst, I won't compete with him for Baixiang Grass in the future!"

Hearing this, Lin Dashan's heavy heart dissipated a little. He pursed his lips and said, "The Chen family is somewhat involved with the county government. Old doctor, please also explain this matter to Mr. Jin. It is said that the people should not fight against the officials. Although my Lin family is in urgent need of help, we do not want to implicate those who are willing to help because of my family's affairs. My parents also told me this when I came here."

The old doctor looked at him for a moment, smiled, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "That's why I am willing to make friends with your family. Your family is honest. Don't worry, the Jin family can become the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and their connections should not be underestimated. Moreover, businessmen know how to weigh the pros and cons best. If this matter cannot be suppressed by their family, they will not agree to take the job even if money comes. They are very smart. No matter what, let's give it a try. If it succeeds, it will be the best. If it doesn't work... there is really nothing we can do."

"Old doctor, I understand. I have the audacity to ask you for help this time. Your willingness to help make the connection is a great favor to our family. I, Lin Dashan, will be grateful to you forever!" Lin Dashan bowed solemnly and thanked the old doctor sincerely.

The old doctor also came from an ordinary family. He opened a pharmacy in this small Wutong town and made a living by treating patients.

Perhaps the biggest network of contacts he has is the Jin family.

When the Lin family came to ask for help, the old doctor helped to intercede with the Jin family without hesitation. No matter what the final outcome of the matter was, it was a favor to the Lin family.

The Lin family will never forget.

Lin Dashan left the old doctor with half a basket of herb he had picked from his own yard and left the pharmacy.

As noon approached, the sun's rays became brighter.

Bai Xiang held his father's hand as they walked along the busy streets. His eyes were always attracted by the street food stalls, but he always tried hard to look away. "Dad, if we don't have Bai Xiang grass to sell, will we not be able to eat big meat buns?"

She came out with her father, and when she heard the word "town", she thought of it and her mind was full of meat buns.

But Baixiang was sensible and didn't make a fuss about asking for food this time.

She already knew why she was the only one who had a meat bun to eat last time she came.

It’s because my father and uncle couldn’t bear to eat it.

Meat buns are expensive, three meat buns can buy a pound of coarse grains.

Lin Dashan held his daughter's hand, holding the small and soft one in his palm, and his heart softened as well, "You can eat it. If I can't sell the Hundred-Angled Grass, Daddy can do other things to make money. When Daddy gets the wages, he will buy you meat buns to eat."

Hearing this, Bai Xiang's face lit up, "How many can I buy with my wages?"

"I'll pay you my wages and buy you a meat bun."

"..."

She can exchange one pound of Baixiangcao for ten big meat buns.

It’s better to poison Chen Xing to death.

There were many people on the street, and the father and daughter who were walking and talking did not notice it. After they left the pharmacy, they were followed.

Chen hurried back to Jishidiang, called the shop clerk and whispered a few words to him, then gave him some change and went back to the backyard with a sneer.

"Are you going to Sifang Pharmacy to spy again?" Zeng Yitang was lying on a bamboo chair on the eaves of the corridor and raised his eyelids when he heard footsteps.

Chen sat down on the chair next to him, picked up the cold tea on the table and drank it slowly. "Of course I have to keep an eye on them. The Lin family has business dealings with that old man named Fang. Whenever they come to town, they will definitely go to Sifang Pharmacy. I caught them this time, hum."

"What did you do?"

"What can I do? Since I promised my uncle to do something for him, I must do what I said. In short, I must make sure that the Lin family does not have an easy time. As long as we do this well and satisfy my uncle, we can ride on his boat and live a good life in the future."

Chen raised the corner of her mouth, her eyes full of coldness and cruelty.

It is said that it is easier to deal with the King of Hell than with the little devils.

Before her uncle got the Hundred-phase Grass, she let the Lin family have a taste of being entangled by the little ghost! This was to show her loyalty to her uncle!
