Shen Yiran looked outside the door and secretly guessed: There must be spies from Empress Sun in Chuxiu Palace, otherwise the Emperor would have ordered her to treat the Crown Prince so soon after the Imperial Noble Consort woke up. This must be the result of the Empress pleading with the Emperor.

Thinking about this, she nodded firmly to Yu Gongyu. Yu Gongyu understood immediately and said no more.

Shen Yiran instructed Banxia, "You stay here and take care of the Imperial Concubine with the Sixth Prince." Banxia nodded obediently. Then, she turned around and pushed Ren Jingzhi out of Chuxiu Palace and headed towards the East Palace.

Along the way, Ren Jingzhi couldn't help but ask, "Ran Ran, do you really want to treat the prince like this?"

Shen Yiran snorted lightly: "What can I do? The emperor has already issued an oral order. Even if I am not afraid of life or death, I cannot implicate the Prime Minister's Mansion."

After hearing this, Ren Jingzhi said nothing more.

Shen Yiran then said, "Husband, are you short of money?"

Ren Jingzhi turned around and looked at her with confusion. At this critical moment, she was still thinking about money.

Ren Yiran smiled slyly: "Since you don't lack money, then I will earn it for my own spending!"

"I've never seen anyone who can get money from the Eastern Palace. It's good enough that we can keep our lives." Ren Jingzhi said worriedly.

"Then you just wait and see!" At this moment, Shen Yiran was in a good mood. Thinking of the large amount of gold that would soon be deposited into her account, she couldn't stop smiling. In her heart, she was secretly grateful to the emperor for giving her this good job.

Ren Jingzhi looked at her smug expression, confused but silent.

Not long after, the two arrived at the East Palace.

Shen Yiran said to the maid at the door, "I, the Crown Prince's Consort, have come to treat the Crown Prince on the Emperor's orders. Go and pass the message on quickly."

"Yes, Princess, please wait a moment, I will go right away." After the maid said this, she hurried to the inner hall.

Soon, Empress Sun came out in person. She was smiling, but her eyes were cold. She held Shen Yiran's hand and said, "Princess, I've finally seen you. Chen'er is saved now."

Shen Yiran sneered in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, your words are too kind. I will do my best."

Empress Sun wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Princess, please come in with me." At this moment, she felt a little relieved, at least the emperor still cared about Chen'er.

As I walked into the prince's bedroom, a strong smell of medicine hit my nose.

The prince's face on the bed was as pale as paper, with beads of sweat pouring out of his pores, rolling down his cheeks and soaking the pillow. He was also pulling at the quilt covering his body unconsciously, as if he was fighting a desperate battle with the pain.

Empress Sun was distressed when she saw this and said, "Chen'er, the Crown Prince's wife is here to see you. You must get better soon."

Shen Yiran sat down on the soft stool beside the bed, and gently placed her slender fingers on the prince's wrist, exerting a little force with her fingers, carefully feeling the beating of his pulse. She narrowed her eyes slightly, her expression focused and solemn.

Judging from the pulse, the prince's condition was complicated and dangerous. But after finding the right symptoms, it was not difficult to treat. First, he used a prescription to clear away heat and detoxify, then replenished the deficient qi and blood, and finally stimulated the acupuncture points, and he would be cured.

But if she told the truth, how could she get the gold she was longing for?

Shen Yiran thought for a moment and said, "The prince has been in a coma with a high fever until now. It is because of his excessive indulgence yesterday. His Qi and blood have been greatly depleted, and the evil spirits have invaded like a flood and beast. What's worse is that the poison of the aphrodisiac incense still remains in his body. In such a dangerous situation, if the medicine cannot be accurately administered, even if Hua Tuo is reborn, he will be powerless to save the situation!"

When Empress Sun heard this, her face turned pale instantly and she grabbed Shen Yi with trembling hands.

She grabbed the sleeves of the prince's clothes and begged in a tearful voice, "Princess, please save the prince! I beg you to make him recover no matter what. As long as you can save him, I am willing to do anything."

Shen Yiran frowned slightly, looked at Queen Sun with embarrassment, and said slowly: "Queen, to be honest, I don't have any ready-made elixir that can save the prince.

This medicine is extremely rare, I need to send someone to ask my master to help find it. The journey back and forth is long, and this medicine is extremely precious, so the cost is definitely not a small amount. "

When Empress Sun heard this, a hint of hesitation flashed across her face, but she quickly said firmly, "As long as it can save the prince, I will pay any amount of money."

Shen Yiran's lips curled up slightly, and she was secretly happy in her heart, but her face still maintained an embarrassment: "Empress, this is not a small amount of money, and there is no guarantee that we can find this rare medicine."

Empress Sun gritted her teeth and said, "Princess, just go and look for him. I trust you. As long as you can save the Crown Prince, I will sacrifice everything I have."

Shen Yiran nodded: "Since the Queen trusts me so much, I will try my best. But this silver..."

Empress Sun asked anxiously, "How much silver do you need? I will order someone to prepare it right away, and you quickly arrange for someone to find medicine."

Shen Yiran said slowly: "Ten thousand taels of gold."

When Empress Sun heard this, her face darkened instantly, and she cursed in her heart: This damn bitch must have deliberately taken the opportunity to blackmail me! But when she thought of the safety of the prince, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll find a way to get it together."

Shen Yiran smiled slightly and continued, "Your Majesty, please hurry up. It will take time to find the medicine. We can't delay."

Empress Sun glared at Shen Yiran fiercely and said, "Don't worry, Princess, I will do it as soon as possible."

Shen Yiran bowed and said, "Then I will prescribe a prescription and have the imperial physician prepare it for the prince to take to reduce the fever first."

As soon as she finished speaking, she walked to the table, picked up the pen, thought for a moment, and then wrote on the paper: "One ounce of gypsum, three ounces of Anemarrhena asphodeloides, two ounces of roasted licorice, and five ounces of polished rice. Boil it in water and take it twice a day."

After writing, she blew the ink off the paper, handed it to Empress Sun, and said, "Pick the medicine according to this prescription. Don't make any mistakes."

Empress Sun quickly took the prescription, her expression tense and solemn, and said, "I will give the order right away, and there will be no negligence."

Shen Yiran nodded slightly, and then continued to remind: "This medicine can only reduce the prince's fever. If you want to recover, you have to wait for someone to find my master to get the elixir."

In fact, as long as Shen Yiran stimulates the acupuncture points, the prince will be able to wake up. However, she must delay now, otherwise her ten thousand taels of gold will be wasted.

Then she said, "Empress, please prepare the gold and send it to Chuxiu Palace. I will start looking for medicine immediately."

Without waiting for Empress Sun to reply, he stood up and said goodbye.

Ren Jingzhi looked at Shen Yiran who was a little proud, and said: "Ranran is really amazing. He was able to get the medical fee from Empress Sun."

Shen Yiran said with a hint of regret: "The Queen's family is wealthy, and her mother's family is a royal merchant. A mere 10,000 taels of gold can save the prince's life, which is really a good deal. If I had known that Queen Sun would agree so readily, I should have asked for 20,000 taels."
