poor people

Chapter 178, Fortune

Lieutenant generals are prone to worms in their bodies, which is a headache and worry for all generals who lead troops in battle.

Shennongtang's roundworm pills are specially designed to treat endogenous worms, and the efficacy of the medicine has been confirmed by the Northwest Frontier Army.

It's a pity that except for the wholesale supply of Shennongtang's pills to the Northwest Frontier Army, other people buy them at retail. One person can buy up to three bottles of the same kind of pills. If you want to buy more, you can't even pay more money.

Therefore, when he learned that the First Prince could wholesale the pills by virtue of the Shennongtang Law Enforcement Order, with a [-]% discount, and he could also designate free roundworm pills for the three armies, the eyes of the generals present at the First Prince changed instantly.

From indifference at the beginning, it became eager and hot.

This scene was watched by the emperor and several princes. The emperor didn't react at all. He looked at the eldest prince and other sons with meaningful eyes.

The prince's eyes drooped slightly, concealing the restlessness in his heart.

Military generals are the most taboo to associate with the prince. Over the years, he secretly wanted to win over some powerful generals, but unfortunately, none of them succeeded.

Fortunately, the generals will not take refuge in him, let alone other princes.

But now, with the bargaining chip of Shennongtang in his hand, the boss can justifiably contact the generals, and there is no guarantee that he will not win over individual generals.

Damn it, it took so much effort to create a victory situation where the boss was in poor health and was kicked out of the court, but now it is completely ruined.

The princes were all affected, not to mention the other princes.

Among them, the sixth prince was the least calm. Firstly, he was ashamed of being a clown once, and secondly, he also saw the change in the generals' attitude towards the eldest prince.

As for the other princes, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they all put on an appearance of watching a show.

Outside the lobby of the worship hall, the imperial guards stood in a row, clearly seeing everything that happened in the house.

Shi Dingxuan stood beside Zhao Shengming, the commander of the guards, nudged Zhao Shengming lightly with his elbow, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhao, didn't the Huaiyuan army always want to buy Shennongtang's pills? Now is the best opportunity. "

The Zhao family has been stationed in northern Xinjiang for decades, and has a deep affection for the Huaiyuan Army. Even if the Zhao family is transferred back to the capital, they still pay close attention to the situation of the Huaiyuan Army.

In the past few years, the change of imperial power, continuous wars in the frontiers, and occasional disasters in various provinces have caused the treasury to not be full.

If the national treasury is not abundant, there will not be too much military pay allocated to the army, and even if it is allocated, it will not be paid on time and in full.

All the generals who lead the army are not worried about the lack of military pay.

The military pay issued by the imperial court is used to purchase medicinal materials every year, accounting for a considerable proportion. Now Shennongtang is going to give free roundworm pills to the army. As long as they win this quota, they can save a lot of money.

The saved money can be used to improve the food of the soldiers, and can also be used to replace weapons, which is of great benefit.

Zhao Shengming understood what Shi Dingxuan meant, and glanced at the eldest prince who had not gone to pick up the guardian decree of Shennongtang in the hall, with a hesitant look on his face.

Shennongtang only gave roundworm pills to the troops of the three parties for free, and the three parties were determined by the eldest prince.

In other words, if you want roundworm pills, you have to obtain the consent of the First Prince.

big prince.
Zhao Shengming looked at the Eldest Prince in the hall. The Eldest Prince must know the role of Shennongtang's law-protecting decree, but he never took it.

Do not want?
surely not.

He is waiting for the emperor's order, or someone can give him an opportunity to get the token.

Otherwise, just stepping up to accept the guardian decree of Shennongtang in front of the emperor and all the princes will reveal his desire for power, which is undoubtedly not good for him.

Is the Zhao family going to be this early bird?
The eldest prince's current situation is not very good. If the Zhao family stood up now, they might offend the prince and others.

But if the First Prince didn't stand up when he needed it most, Huaiyuan Jun might not be able to get the roundworm pills that Shennongtang gave away for free.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Shengming still made up his mind and quietly withdrew from the guard team.

After a while, Shi Dingxuan saw Zhao's servants enter the hall, and whispered a few words to Zhao Zhiwen, the current Minister of War and former Governor of Huaiyuan, who was watching the ceremony.

Zhao Zhiwen was more decisive than his son, and without much thought, he smiled and passed the steps to the eldest prince: "The doctor Liu is far away in the northwest border, and he specially prepared a congratulatory gift for the first prince. The first prince and doctor Liu are really mentors and apprentices." Deep."

Seeing someone rushing to speak before him, Young Master Cai immediately followed up and said, "Isn't it? Miracle Doctor Liu really loves his disciples deeply, Eldest Prince, hurry up and accept the congratulatory gift that Miracle Doctor Liu specially sent for you."

The eldest prince did not move, but looked at the emperor.

The emperor looked at him with a smile: "The gift from the elder is irresistible. In the future, you will have a good life to honor your master."

The eldest prince quickly replied: "I would like to follow the teachings of my father." After speaking, he coughed violently, and the bride beside him immediately supported the eldest prince who was arched from coughing.

Seeing that the Eldest Prince was coughing uncontrollably, Young Master Cai stepped forward quickly, took the law-protecting decree from the hand of the cheeky man and put it directly into the Eldest Prince's hand.

"Your Majesty, we're done worshiping, hurry up and send the eldest prince and the bride back to the bridal chamber."

The emperor nodded, and immediately the courtiers began to sing: "The bride and groom are sent to the bridal chamber~"

Seeing Master Cai Xiaohou grinningly following the newcomer to the bridal chamber, Zhao Zhiwen quickly summoned his youngest son, Zhao Shenghao: "Go, make trouble in the bridal chamber."

Zhao Shenghao's eyes widened: "Going to make trouble in the eldest prince's bridal chamber?"

Zhao Zhiwen: "You do what Young Master Cai does. If he asks the eldest prince for roundworm pills, you also ask for it."

Zhao Shenghao nodded, and ran to chase after Master Cai Xiaohou.

When the other generals saw this scene, they quickly recruited the juniors in the family and asked them to go to the bridal chamber with them.

Under the eaves of the hall, Shi Dingxuan smiled slightly as he watched the eldest prince and his party walking away.

Very well, the nephew's wedding went smoothly and successfully!
Some people are happy, some people are not happy.

Obviously, the crown prince and other princes were not very happy.

Wei Yichen walked up to the prince and whispered, "The eldest prince still has some luck."

In a person's life, there are not many chances to stand up, but the eldest prince changed his life twice.

The first time was because of the severe poison of the ice snake in his body. He thought he would not live to be 20 years old, but the emperor just found the miracle doctor Zhan, and he continued the life of the eldest prince.

The second time, this time.

A prince who did not hesitate to damage his body in order to win the favor of the emperor, causing the foundation of his body to be destroyed, could not win the support of others.

Things had originally developed in this way, but the eldest prince suddenly had a doctor father.

When Miracle Physician Zhan accepted apprenticeship on behalf of his junior sister back then, everyone probably thought it was a perfunctory affair, even the eldest prince himself probably didn't take it to heart.

The reality is always unexpected. Who would have thought that the farce of apprenticeship, which was not favored by everyone at the beginning, would actually bring a turning point to the eldest prince?
The prince's expression was indifferent: "In the world, fortune and misfortune depend on each other. Eldest brother has multiple masters. It's hard to say whether it's a good thing or not."

The boss can indeed rely on the Shennong Hall to communicate with the generals, but military power is the last thing the prince can get his hands on. Seeing the generals getting closer to the boss, the father will not lose his mind.

Furthermore, the boss has the Heart-eating Gu in his body, his life or not is entirely on his side.

The emperor paid enough attention to the eldest prince's marriage, not only on the spot in person, but also ate a meal at the eldest prince's mansion before returning to the palace.

After returning to the palace, the emperor called Xiaohou Cai to the front: "I haven't seen you get close to the boss on weekdays, but today you seem to be an elder."

Master Cai Xiaohou chuckled: "I can't help it. I don't have the good luck of the eldest prince. I have a god doctor father who is a good friend with the master of Shennong Hall."

The emperor looked at him: "Shen Nong Tang has provided roundworm pills to the Northwest Frontier Army a long time ago, so you don't need to curry favor with the boss."

Cai Xiaohou did not hide anything, and directly stated the reason why he spoke for the eldest prince today: "Your Majesty, my father was assassinated. Although General Zhuang tried his best to save him, he was still injured and his health is not as good as before."

"Every time I see my father's weak appearance, I feel very anxious. When I was seeking medical treatment everywhere, Shennongtang sent a pill called Yangsheng Pill."

"After taking it for a period of time, my father's complexion improved visibly with the naked eye. When I returned to Beijing, my father was able to chase after my ass and beat me with a stick again."

The emperor: "Health pill?"

Master Cai Xiaohou nodded: "Yes, this kind of pill can strengthen the body after taking it, and it is most suitable for the elderly to take. I wanted to buy some when I came back, but I couldn't."

"This kind of pill is difficult to prepare, so the quantity is not large. With the guardian decree of Shennongtang, the elder nephew can reserve the pill in advance."

The emperor: "So, you rushed to please in advance?"

Cai Xiaohouye: "Look at what the emperor said, I am clearly in touch with my eldest nephew."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly: "Shen Nong Hall"
