Chapter 150 Make a Big Money
Zhan Jingchen and the Queen Mother looked at Tang Xiluo at the same time. The little girl didn't say anything, and they couldn't make the decision for her.
Zhan Jingxuan raised his chin: "First, let's see if there is anything wrong with the pills."
What if I told you in advance that it was developed by the emperor's sister-in-law, but there was a problem with the medicine pills? Wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the emperor's sister-in-law and brother in front of the imperial physician!
What's more, the emperor's sister-in-law also has good intentions. If she is convicted of murdering the empress dowager...
After checking that there is nothing wrong with the medicine pills, it will not be too late to take credit for it to the emperor's sister-in-law.
Tang Xiluo pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She was very confident in the antidote she developed. It didn't matter whether she said it or not, and she didn't think about Zhan Jingxuan's worries.
The imperial physician looked at the exquisite medicine pills again and again, then leaned in to smell them, his expression solemn and puzzled.
Zhan Jingchen's heart was also in a state of ups and downs. Why was the imperial physician's facial expression so dramatic? If he had any questions, he could just ask!
Although the Queen Mother was a little cautious, she did not doubt that the little girl was filial and did it for her own good. She was just worried that her medical skills were not good enough...
Zhan Jingxuan waited and waited, and finally asked anxiously, "Doctor Chen, please speak up. How about this medicine?"
Doctor Chen shook his head seriously.
When everyone saw him shaking his head, they felt a little disappointed, thinking that such exquisite medicine pills were useless and could only be looked at for beauty.
Tang Xiluo's eyes widened, and he cursed in his heart: You quack! You half-baked doctor! Do I need to buy you a pair of glasses?!
Then, the imperial physician was heard speaking.
"I don't see any problem with this old minister. It should be an excellent antidote."
Everyone: "..."
The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief and sat back in her chair.
"Say it directly next time, don't nod or shake your head." My heart was beating fast and I felt uncomfortable and panicked.
Zhan Jingxuan was also speechless. No wonder Doctor Chen was inferior to Doctor Liu.
Zhan Jingchen rubbed his eyebrows.
"Don't say you should. I want to make sure everything goes well."
Doctor Liu's legs went limp and he fell to his knees.
"Please spare my life, my lord. The medical skills of the person who made this medicine are better than those of this old minister. I just can't see it!"
The Queen Mother and Zhan Jingxuan looked at the imperial physician in disbelief, then at Tang Xiluo.
This little girl is so young, but her medical skills are so high! And before this, they had never heard any rumors that the second young lady of the general's mansion knew medical skills.
Tang Xiluo said calmly: "This is the medicine pill developed by this concubine."
Doctor Liu's pupils trembled slightly: "? !!" This is unbelievable!
"The princess is extremely gifted in medical skills. I admire her..."
After hearing his long bunch of flattery, Tang Xiluo raised his chin a little.
Zhan Jingchen looked at her proud expression and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
Zhan Jingxuan coughed twice. The emperor's sister-in-law was indeed different from ordinary women and was very powerful.
"So I can take this medicine?"
She had been drinking decoctions for half her life, and now she wanted to vomit whenever she smelled the bitter and unpleasant smell of the decoctions. If she could use the medicine pills, she would never have to drink boiled decoctions again.
Doctor Liu thought for a moment and said tentatively, "Can you give me one pill? I will go back and study it carefully."
Tang Xiluo blinked and said, "It may be difficult to give it as a gift. If the imperial physician is willing to spend some money, I can sell it to you."
The imperial physician couldn't believe his ears. Could the princess be short of money? !
Tang Xiluo sighed and began to play the victim, "Imperial Physician, you know that it is not easy to develop medicinal pills, and it is even more difficult to develop such exquisite medicinal pills. This really cost me too much effort, and I feel very sad if I waste even one pill..."
When the empress dowager heard this, she was even more moved. She knew that it was not easy for the little girl. She locked herself in the courtyard for several days without going out, forgetting to eat and sleep. It was conceivable how hard it was for her to develop the medicine pills.
She didn't want the stars in the sky, she just wanted some silver. There might not be a second jar of such exquisite medicinal pills in the whole world. They were so precious, so it was reasonable for her to ask for some silver.
It’s impossible not to be touched by the little girl’s concern for me.
"Madam Cao, please send all the jewelry that the late emperor bestowed upon me to the palace. I am old now, and there is no need for me to keep those that little girls wore."
Ma Cao was shocked. The Empress Dowager had just sent some over, and now she wanted to send some more!
It seems that the princess is not only important in the prince's heart, but also has a place in the queen mother's heart. We must respect the princess more in the future.
"Yes, I will take care of it right away."
Seeing that the empress dowager had spoken and was so generous, Doctor Chen felt it would be unreasonable if he did not express his opinion.
But these pills are so precious. If I give too little, it would be a disservice to the medicine, and if I give too much, I won’t have any left!
"Princess, this pill..."
Tang Xiluo smiled like a little fox, squinting his eyes, with a calculating look in his eyes.
"Since this is your first time selling medicine, then let's sell it at a lower price. You'll have to raise the price next time you sell medicine."
When the imperial physician heard this, he was surprised that he was so lucky?!
"Thank you, Princess. Can I buy a few more?" I'm afraid I won't be able to afford them in the future.
The Queen Mother was shocked: "How dare you, old man, snatch something from me?!"
Doctor Chen knew that the Queen Mother was not really angry, so he grinned shamelessly.
"Empress Dowager, all medicines are poisonous. Just a few pills are enough to heal your body. The rest would be redundant..." It's just like that!
Queen Mother: “…” Smooth talk!
Zhan Jingxuan: “…” I didn’t expect you to be this kind of Doctor Chen.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "Forget it, let Luo Luo decide for himself."
Tang Xiluo was curious, "How many pills does Doctor Chen want?"
Doctor Chen stretched out his hand tremblingly.
The Queen Mother: “!!!” Too greedy, she even dared to ask for five pills!
Tang Xiluo curled his lips, "Five pills? Then exchange it for Doctor Chen's annual salary."
Now it was Doctor Chen’s turn to be shocked. So expensive?!
Didn't we agree to sell it at a lower price the first time? Is this considered cheap? Then the price will be sky-high in the future!
"Dr. Chen, could it be that he didn't smell the tonic inside? This medicine is not just an antidote, it is a top-quality tonic. If an ordinary person takes one pill, they will be healthy for two or three years without taking any tonic."
It’s just that the Empress Dowager had been taking problematic tonics for years, which had depleted her health and caused her to become poisoned, so her use of medicine was different from that of ordinary people.
"What's more, the medicinal materials used to develop this medicine are also very precious. Apart from the cost, I haven't made much money from you."
The doctor gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll buy it."
Tang Xiluo nodded: "Deal!"
She really didn't make any money from Doctor Chen, she just wanted him to go to the Imperial Medical Bureau to promote the hospital so that she could make more money from the hospital in the future.
Doctor Chen looked at the emperor and the others, "I will go back and study this immediately, and I will give the emperor and the empress dowager a reply tomorrow."
He was already willing to spend a large sum of money to buy it, which meant that the Queen Mother could take the medicine. However, he still had to ask the imperial physician to go back and study the formula before he could feel more at ease.
