The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1975: Chapter 1975: Priceless (Part 3)

Hong Ye came over to take the book and then handed it to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager glanced through it and couldn’t help but nod: ”Well done.”

”Thank you for the compliment, Empress Dowager.” Yang Ruxin smiled slightly, ”However, there is no record of Miss Wang seeking medical treatment.”

”Madam Ruyi’s actions are truly magnanimous.” Concubine Meng Shufei gently spoke, ”Although the medicine is expensive, it is more important than life.”

Yang Ruxin’s eyelids twitched slightly, and she couldn’t help but raise her eyes to look at Concubine Meng Shufei: ”Your Highness, I dare not accept such praise.” She paused for a moment, ”Empress Dowager, actually, I also wish the price could be lower, but the silver merely covers the cost of the medicines. Moreover, those ladies from prominent families can spend hundreds of taels on a doll to hold, so it’s evident they aren’t lacking in silver.” As she spoke, she pulled out another piece of paper, ”Empress Dowager, here are the main ingredients in the medicine pill.”

Hong Ye’s mouth twitched; Madam Ruyi seemed well-prepared, having brought everything.

”Empress Dowager, Zizi will read it.” Qi Zizi reached out and took the prescription, ”Thousand-year ginseng, hundred-year-old polygoni multiflori, Tianshan snow lotus, red chain snake venom...”

Although the quantities weren’t mentioned, each ingredient was invaluable, especially the Tianshan snow lotus, which was practically priceless in the market, and the red chain snake, which was difficult to catch and could kill with one bite. With such ingredients, the medicine pill could be sold for ten thousand taels, let alone one thousand.

Meng Shufei’s face stiffened slightly, but she still smiled: ”I don’t understand medicine, but they all sound like good things...”

”The knowledgeable see the depths, and the unknowledgeable just watch the spectacle.” Noble Consort Mu also smiled, suggesting that if you don’t understand, don’t speak recklessly.

Meng Shufei quickly nodded and kept silent.

Xiao Jin sneered slightly, but it was obviously not her time to speak, especially with the Empress Dowager present. Although she didn’t particularly like Yang Ruxin, she kept quiet. Her son had repeatedly instructed her, even sending letters from the front lines reminding her not to act recklessly, so she could only restrain herself to avoid ruining her son’s big plans.

”Empress Dowager, I remember the Imperial Hospital only stored one piece of thousand-year ginseng?” Jiang Fangfei also spoke with a smile, ”It was a gift from the Jin Country and is said to be extremely rare. Even if a tiny amount is needed for a pill, the price isn’t cheap either...”

The Empress Dowager nodded: ”Xinxin is truly generous; just relying on her status as Dao Xuzi’s disciple, she could easily charge ten thousand taels.”

Meng Shufei’s face felt burning hot, and she quickly forced a smile: ”The Empress Dowager is right.”

”Anning, since Zhengzheng is ill, then seek proper treatment.” The Empress Dowager ignored Meng Shufei and instead looked at Princess Anning, ”You’re a grandmother now, why are you still so short-sighted?” She also glanced at Wang Zhengzheng, ”Girls should be well-cared for, but they should also know right from wrong, shouldn’t they?”

”Empress Dowager...”

”Enough, I am tired.” The Empress Dowager interrupted Princess Anning, waving her hand directly, ”You may take your leave.”

Wang Zhengzheng quickly looked toward the Empress Dowager, wishing to stay, but the Empress Dowager did not look at her, and her eyes reddened with grievance.

Princess Anning, though unwilling in her heart, said nothing more, directly getting up, bowing, and withdrawing.

”I heard from Hong Ye that your noodles are very delicious.” After Anning and Wang Zhengzheng left, the Empress Dowager smiled directly at Yang Ruxin, ”Let’s have noodles for lunch today.”
