"I didn't just say those medicinal materials casually. You must know more about the efficacy of the loofah and other seven-flavored medicinal materials than me. Loofah, clearing away heat and dredging collaterals, soothing the liver; White chrysanthemum, clearing heat and expelling wind, nourishing liver and beauty; mother of pearl, calming liver and calming heart, clearing heat and detoxification; rose, soothing liver and regulating qi, nourishing blood and whitening; white silkworm, clearing heat and expelling wind, harmonizing nutrition and health; red dates, invigorating spleen Harmonizes, moisturizes and moisturizes the skin. Together, it is a good medicine for invigorating the spleen and dispelling wind, pleasing the face and removing freckles."

Mu Shuiqing said in a deep voice: "The freckles on her face have only grown for more than a year, and they are not difficult to fade away. As long as she takes the medicine persistently, she will see some faint results in seven days. Most of the freckles will disappear in a month. It will be all right in two months."

She said with a smile on her face: "Everyone in the capital knows that Miss Song has many ugly spots on her face. Although the free treatment in the early stage is a huge loss to the pharmacy, if we cure her, it will be an excellent advertisement! Vividly tell everyone that we have the ability to make any woman young and beautiful! You said, why don't the pharmacy have no customers at that time?"

Shopkeeper Chen said sadly: "These medicinal materials can be found everywhere, and we don't need to get them here. If other pharmacies learn about this simple prescription, we still won't get business..."

Regarding the papaya head, Mu Shuiqing almost vomited blood with anger: "You are stupid! This is a commercial secret, it must be kept secret, do you understand how to keep it secret! Isn't it enough to declare it to the outside world as a secret recipe!"

"From now on, we have to get ready!" Mu Shui cleared his throat, "Both pharmacies have set up beauty salons called Beauty Hall. Tomorrow, we will start distributing leaflets everywhere, and try our best to spread this news to the public. Everyone in the capital knows it! By the way, pick a few girls with quick hands and feet, and start to learn skin beautification massage with me tomorrow."

"Yes!" Shopkeeper Chen looked at Mu Shuiqing adoringly, and praised, "The princess knows so much, she even understands medical theory! She is indeed the most talented woman in the capital!"

Mu Shuiqing was taken aback, and then realized that she had been too radiant recently, but fortunately she had a good name as the number one talented woman in the capital, otherwise she would be suspected by everyone with strange eyes.The reputation of being the most talented woman in the capital is really useful!

She smiled modestly: "I read a lot of miscellaneous books in the past, so I know a little bit about everything."

After everything was arranged, Mu Shuiqing advertised in Yipin Tea Pavilion and Yiyibushe as usual.

She said affectionately: "As time goes on, our skin becomes sensitive and dull. At this time, it is most in need of soothing and repairing. And the nursing care emphasizes "nourishing from the inside to the outside, step by step". At this time, my newly established Beauty Hall can meet all the requirements of everyone. You don’t have to worry about your husband taking concubines or going to the brothel for pleasure because of old age. You don’t have to feel inferior because of your ugly appearance...Guest officials hope that they can live forever Youth, youthful vigor..."

Some things Mu Shuiqing said entered the hearts of some noble ladies.Although they have no worries about food and clothing, and possess countless wealth, they have won the heart of their husbands. The husband's people, seeing their husbands taking concubines again and again, and staying overnight in other courtyards, their hearts are numb.

"Meiyantang has carefully selected more than a dozen beauty prescriptions from many ancient medical volumes, such as Yurong San, Babai San, Yuhong Ointment, Bazhen Ointment, Tianxiang San, etc. Even in old age, it can keep the skin tender White, smooth and elastic! Today, the first day of the Beauty Hall’s opening, I will give you a pack of Tianxiang Powder for free, guests can use it to wash your face or take a bath when you go back. There are strands of strange fragrance in the body. If you wash your face and bathe with this for a long time, you will keep this strange fragrance on your body forever."

This is a prescription made of nard pine, kaempferen, fenugreek, bletilla striata, angelica, fangfeng, haoben, white worm, aconite, trichosanthes, tonka, and mung bean powder.

The plain packaging and light aroma make the whole body comfortable when held in the hand.The first impression, everyone gave full marks.Because the special smell of herbs and even traditional Chinese medicine, to some extent, can play a role in calming emotions.

"After bathing, it is the best choice to apply Yuhong ointment all over the body. This Yuhong ointment can eliminate excess toxins in the body. Long-term use can cleanse the skin, unclog pores, and have a moisturizing effect, making the skin tender and smooth. Like a peach blossom."

"If you are free, you can also go to the Beauty Hall to experience skin beautification massage. Properly promote blood circulation in the skin, and the skin that is usually very tired can be properly relieved. After long-term use, it can prevent wrinkles and make the complexion more rosy. It’s touching! There is a discounted trial price for the top ten, only five taels of silver!”

Everyone is ready to move, but no one dares to be No.1.At this time, a young girl rushed over, holding Mu Shuiqing's hand and said excitedly: "Sister Wangfei, the spots on my face seem to have really disappeared! I have only taken the medicine for ten days, and it is so effective." Thank you so much, sister. My father said that I can’t accept my sister’s gift for nothing, so he specially ordered me to send a thousand-year-old ginseng as a gift to my sister.”

Mu Shuiqing exclaimed: "Thousand-year-old ginseng is so valuable, how can it be..." Converted to silver, it would cost several thousand taels at least!

Song Xinxin said sincerely: "It is said that ginseng can cure all diseases. This is a little wish from my father. I hope the prince can get rid of the serious illness as soon as possible!"

"Thank you for being considerate."

Many people knew Miss Song, and seeing that the freckles on her face were indeed lighter than before, they all opened their mouths in disbelief.Could it be that Mu Shuiqing's beauty hall can really make people look young and beautiful, and not look old?

Seeing everyone's heartbeat, Mu Shuiqing concluded with a smile: "Every woman wants to stay young and beautiful forever, so the Beauty Hall has selected more than a dozen beauty and skin care recipes to create this dream of not getting old for everyone. You may as well go to Try it, and you will get a hundred times the return. Just like this Ms. Song. The key to skin care and beauty is persistence, so once you take the prescription, don't be impatient and give up halfway... Do you have any questions about beauty? , you can find me as much as you like. The Beauty Hall is looking forward to your visit!"

In modern times, the beauty business is a long-lasting industry, and it is easy to secure a customer base.Because once you buy beauty products from you, they will basically be used for a lifetime.Mu Shuiqing took advantage of this!
But as we all know, it is impossible to achieve immediate results in beauty treatment. Even if the body is treated with traditional Chinese medicine, it is impossible to remove the obvious freckles on the face in just ten days.Although Mu Shuiqing had doubts, he just sighed that the ancient medicine was so effective!

When the store was closing, Mu Shuiqing specially asked shopkeeper Chen to inspect the ginseng plant. Shopkeeper Chen observed the ginseng at a close distance, touching and admiring: "This is indeed a thousand-year-old ginseng, and it has formed a human shape. Rare."

When Mu Shuiqing heard this, his brows were filled with joy, and he couldn't put it down even more while holding this ginseng.Rich people are rich people, and they spend a lot of money.Back then, it was beneficial to approach Song Xinxin deliberately to coax her!This kind of tonic, she has to enjoy it when she goes back, to nourish Mu Shuiqing's terrible body!
After returning home, Mu Shuiqing hesitated a few times holding the ginseng. Hearing that Ji Xiaomo's cough became louder and louder, she pushed open the door, gently put the ginseng on the table, and said lightly: "This is the rich man Song Father gave it to the prince..." She paused, then said, "Thousand-year-old ginseng is very good for the prince's recovery..."

Ji Xiaomo took a step forward, and suddenly raised his hand.Seeing Mu Shuiqing looking at him suspiciously, he was slightly taken aback, swallowed what he was about to say, turned his hand in one direction, touched the ginseng on the table, and handed it to the person next to him. green bamboo.

Seeing her flushed eyes, chapped lips, and extremely tired appearance, Ji Xiaomo thought of how many times when he passed by the shop in a carriage, he saw her talking and working around in the shop.Unexpectedly, in just ten days, she lost a lot of weight.

Ji Xiaomo said softly, "I've worked hard for you these few days."

"No..." Ji Xiaomo's words made Mu Shuiqing feel the urge to cry for some reason.She hates that he can pluck her heartstrings at will and affect her emotions.It's strange...Ji Xiaomo was the first person who was kind to her when she came to this world...caused her to have a fledgling plot...she hates herself like this.

So in the past few days, she devoted herself to her career and worked hard, hoping that she could gradually fade away her special feelings for him.Half a year later, no matter what happens to Ji Xiaomo, she will do her due.On the contrary, she will leave with a large sum of money, find a land of fish and rice, stay away from all disputes, and live a life of clouds and clouds.

Mu Shuiqing slightly raised the corners of his mouth, bowed his head respectfully and said with a smile: "This is what a concubine should do."

This is what she should do.What she should do as a princess... keep her distance and concentrate on making money.

Ji Xiaomo pursed his lips, but said nothing.Unexpectedly, after the incident last time, the distance between Mu Shuiqing and him became more and more distant, which deviated from his plan and made him feel uncomfortable unexpectedly.There was a secret channel switch under that painting, so he was angry at her to leave on purpose, and he was also angry at Mu Shuiqing for deliberately pretending not to know the woman in the painting.Her disguise inexplicably ignited his anger.Even when she handed over the medicine, he had a thousand thoughts in his mind to guess her intentions.

However, in the past few days without Mu Shuiqing's worries, his heart felt empty, as if something was missing.

While Mu Shuiqing was taking a bath as usual, Bai Ye, who was hiding in the dark, couldn't help but said: "My lord, don't you tell the truth to the princess? How could the freckles on Miss Song's face fade away after just taking traditional Chinese medicine for a few days? My lord let..."

Ji Xiaomo stretched out his hand to stop, and said lightly: "Where is Mo Hua, why didn't you come back?"

"Mo Hua went to pick up his wife personally..."

In the harem of the imperial city, two gorgeously dressed women ran into each other in the corridor.An elegant jade face is painted with light plum blossom makeup, embellishing her original gorgeous face with a trace of charm.The hair is tied up in a unique phoenix bun, and she is dressed in a blue gauze dress, with a white silk robe looming inside.

Concubine Li Gui looked at the woman in front of her and suddenly smiled and said: "My younger sister is much prettier than before. This dress is really novel. How come I have never seen it before?" When she spoke, her glossy black hair hung around Qian's thin waist. swaying gracefully.

"Sister, don't you know? This is the latest cheongsam made by the Seventh Princess, and it has become popular in the capital." The woman was wearing a red cheongsam with a lavender gauze outside.She covered her face with her sleeve, and said shyly, "Your Majesty praised your concubine as beautiful today..." She deliberately turned sideways, showing off her graceful figure, and swayed her exposed left leg in front of the other party, "Your Majesty still Kua Chenqie's legs are very white..." Under the cover of the sleeves was a frightened face.

Concubine Li Gui said with a strong face: "My sister is beautiful and beautiful..."

Concubine Chen Shu interrupted with a smile: "Sister is so smart, Your Majesty just praised me like this, saying that I smell extremely good."

The smile on Concubine Li Gui's face couldn't hold back anymore. Suddenly, she smiled again, and sighed: "It's a pity that I'm pregnant now, otherwise I would want to wear such a beautiful and tight-waisted dress..." Said Then, she deliberately straightened her waist, and swayed away under Chen Shufei's jealous face.

As soon as she returned to her bedroom, the smile on Concubine Li Gui's face all subsided, and her charming face was full of ferocious hatred: "Bitch, you actually climbed onto my head!"

With a wave of her hand angrily, all the teapots and cups on the table fell to the ground. "What's going on here! Why didn't she die, but lived such a healthy life!"

The maid panicked and said, "Your Majesty, calm down, Your Majesty, calm down!"

"What's my concubine angry about?" A playful male voice sounded from the door, Li Yanshan was startled suddenly, she quickly put away her angry face, and put on a tearful one.

"It's not that Xiaoqing broke the teapot and cup clumsily, and the concubine is training her."

Li Yanshan approached softly, serving a handsome man in a yellow robe sitting on a bench.She rubbed her shoulders for him, and said intentionally: "Today, I saw Sister Concubine Shu wearing a peculiar gown, so I realized it was made by Sister Shui Qing. Sister Shui Qing has been married to the Seventh Prince for almost a month, and I also married her I haven't seen you and the Seventh Prince for a long time. It will be the Mid-Autumn Festival soon, why don't you invite them to get together."

Seeing the man looking at her with a dark smile, without making a sound for a long time, Li Yanshan's heart tightened, she lowered her head in fear and said: "It's my concubine who is talking too much."

"No, it's a good suggestion." Ji Hengyuan smiled lightly, and ran his hands down her hair, his black eyes were cloudy, "You and the seventh brother are childhood sweethearts, and you and the seventh brother and sister are bosom friends, it's a pity On the day they got married, you were too scared to go to watch the ceremony. Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, why not invite them to the palace to have a lively banquet."

When Li Yanshan was beaming with joy, she heard Ji Hangyuan say indifferently: "Actually, on the day my seventh brother got married, I told him about your pregnancy. You are his concubine, and he should take the initiative to bring the princess into the palace to greet you." Yes. However, he has not entered the palace for a whole month, it is really rude..."

Li Yanshan was startled, she pulled the corners of her mouth and said with a faint smile: "Your Majesty, don't blame him. I'm afraid the Seventh Prince is weak and cannot go out..."
