The princess has no moral principles, why did you provoke her?

Ye Qingyan clasped her fists towards Leng Jiuyuan and said, "See you later!"

After saying that, she walked out and disappeared out of the yard.

Only when Ye Qingyan disappeared from view did Leng Jiuyuan turn around and come to Nangong Xiao's bedside.

He said in a low voice: "Big Brother, how did you get poisoned?"

Nangong Xiao said in a weak voice, "I was originally going back to the capital, and when I passed by Qiyao Mountain, I heard the sound of swordsmen practicing.

They took advantage of darkness and sneaked into the mountains, but unexpectedly there were many soldiers hiding there, more than 20,000 people.

The person in charge there is Chang Le from the Fourth Prince's Mansion. It can be concluded that the Fourth Prince has secretly stationed troops.

When I was leaving, I was suddenly discovered. I didn't expect them to spread poison, and I accidentally got caught. I ran back desperately.

Leng Jiuyuan's eyes were deep, "I didn't expect that the Fourth Prince is so anxious. He is a sinister and cunning person, and he still dreams of sitting on the throne. It's really unrealistic and he overestimates his own abilities.

It's enough for you to know this matter. Mother is proud of him. I want to see how he ends up in an irretrievable situation.

The prince is benevolent, wise, and a man of both civil and military talents, making him worthy of being the ruler of a country.

We just need to quietly protect the prince and warn him if there is any sign of trouble."

Nangong Xiao asked again, "Third Junior Brother, the old emperor treated you like this, are you really not interested in that position?"

Leng Jiuyuan said calmly, "It's lonely at the top. Being an emperor may seem like you have supreme power, but you also lose your freedom.

He was bound to the dragon throne every day, with endless memorials to review and endless court affairs to deal with.

Life is so short. I just want to be a carefree prince, living a leisurely life, going wherever I want."

Nangong Xiao sneered: "You want to be free, but your old man has already regarded you as a thorn in his side and will not stop until he kills you. It will be difficult for you to escape unscathed.

I advised you not to go to the battlefield a long time ago, but you just wouldn't listen.

If you don't go and don't make any military achievements, he won't be afraid of you at all.

Throughout the dynasties, no one whose achievements surpassed their masters had a good ending."

Leng Jiuyuan said coldly: "I have already handed over the military order and I don't care about the affairs of the court. What else does he want?"

Nangong Xiao sighed: "Alas, the imperial family is the most ruthless, this is your fate!

I've made you spend quite a bit of money this time, so I'll get it back from the manor and return it to you."

"No need. You stay here and take good care of your injuries. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Nangong Xiao nodded.

Leng Jiuyuan returned to the palace and sat in the study drinking tea. Thinking of Ye Qingyan's greedy look, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

He went directly to the warehouse and carefully selected a few items, thinking of giving them to Xiaoqi next time he saw him.

…………

There is a long queue in front of Baicaotang every day. Not only people from the capital, but also people from other places come to queue up for medical treatment.

In contrast, Tongji Pharmacy, the largest pharmacy in the capital, no longer has the glory it once had. There are less than five patients entering the store every day, and sometimes there is not a single patient at all all day.

…………

The Fourth Prince's Study

Manager Gu knelt before the Fourth Prince and said, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have allowed Baicaotang to grow so large.

I didn't expect that little girl to have some skills. I underestimated them."

"Who is the ghost doctor?"

Shopkeeper Gu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I don't know. I only heard that he wore a ghost mask and a black robe. No one has ever seen his true face."

Leng Jinhong's face was grim, and his tone was cold: "Won't you go and check? In such a small place, you can't even find out where he is.

If you can't find out, you don't have to be the shopkeeper anymore, get out!"

"Yes, I'll take my leave!" Manager Gu walked out of the study, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes.

He had been the shopkeeper of Tongjitang for ten years and had never been scolded. This was the first time, all thanks to Baicaotang.

He muttered to himself, "You've blocked our path to wealth. If you're unkind, don't blame us for being unjust."

…………

On the third day, Manager Gu saw that there was no patient in the lobby. He called Li Er over, whispered a few words in his ear, and took out two silver bills.

Li Er nodded and bowed, with a happy look on his face, and walked out happily.

…………

Baicaotang has been open for a month. If you want to see the ghost doctor for a diagnosis, you need to make an appointment.

Today, Ye Qingyan returned to her old job and set up a stall in front of Baicaotang, with the banner "Divine Calculation Xiaoqi" hung up again.

People immediately gathered around and asked, "How come there's a female fortune teller here? Is she really that effective?"

A man in his thirties wearing brocade said, "She is very smart. She is the famous divine fortune teller Xiao Qi from the Qingyang Sect. Anyone who has been to Yunzhou City knows her name.

Normally, if you want to ask her for a talisman, you have to go to Qingyang Sect.

I didn't expect her to come down the mountain to the capital. This is an opportunity not to be missed. I must ask for a few more talismans."

He stepped forward and clasped his fists. "Divine Calculation Xiaoqi, I've heard of your great name since I was in Yunzhou City. I'm begging for five amulets for peace and five amulets for warding off evil spirits."

"Okay, each talisman costs ten taels, a total of one hundred taels! If the talisman turns to ashes, it will have warded off disaster for you."

The man took out a silver note worth one hundred taels, and Ye Qingyan handed him ten sachets and talismans.

A middle-aged woman in gorgeous clothes curled her lips and said, "They're in the same group, right? Are they putting on a show for everyone? There are so many scammers."

Ye Qingyan looked at her and said, "Madam, please don't lie. It's up to you whether you believe me or not. Don't call me a liar."

"You're obviously lying, but you don't allow people to say it, ah!"

Ye Qingyan smiled and said, "Now I will prove to you that I am not a liar.

There is a new death in your house, and you have become a widow. Please return home quickly to handle the funeral."

One of her maids said, "How can you curse our lady like that? I think you don't want to live anymore."

"I, the divine fortune teller Xiao Qi, never speak empty words, and your life is not safe."

Everyone was confused: Is what the fortune teller Xiao Qi said accurate?

At this time, a servant from the Yang Mansion quickly came to Madam Yang and said, "Madam, this is terrible. The master has accidentally fallen off his horse and is no longer breathing. He has passed away."

Madam Yang staggered at that moment, and two maids hurried to support her.

She looked at Ye Qingyan: "Divine Calculation Xiaoqi, do you have a way to crack it?"

Ye Qingyan counted on her fingers and said, "It's too late. The disaster has already happened. Please accept my condolences."

Madam Yang burst into tears immediately, and a maidservant persuaded her, "Madam, let's go back home quickly."

Everyone watched them leave, they believed and were convinced.

It is true that there are always people better than you, and there are still many talented people.

Some people came to the stall to ask for amulets...

For three consecutive days, Ye Qingyan set up a stall and there was an endless stream of people coming to ask for talismans.

…………

One morning, a young couple carried an old woman to the door of Baicaotang.

The young woman shouted, "Fellow villagers, come and see how Baicaotang is taking human lives lightly.

My mother-in-law went to see Dr. Chen here yesterday, but she died this morning after taking her medicine.

Doctors from Baicaotang, please come out and pay me compensation."

The young man took out a list of prescriptions.

"Doctor Chen, please take a look at the prescription. Is this the medicine you prescribed? The medicine was also obtained at your Baicaotang, but the person died after taking it. Are you saving people or killing them?"
