Judicial Doctor, Wild Princess

Cheng Li Postscript 4

On the first day of August, Rong Li left the city early.

Noon, the carriage from Fengzhou arrived at the outskirts of the capital.

"This Miss Li, her family owns a satin shop and only has a daughter. Her parents treat her like a pearl and treasure. She is seventeen this year, and her age matches yours. Let's see if she looks good as well, like a flower bud."

"This Lady Chen is the direct descendant of the Prime Minister of the Southern Water Manor. Her family is cultured and elegant, and I've heard that she was born rich, full of poetry books. If not for her gender, just her knowledge alone would not be a problem."

"And this Miss Ou …"

"This Miss Fang …"

Jong-li listened to his grandmother as if she were a sparrow, one after the other, and he did not answer, his expression wooden, his left ear in and his right ear out.

When his mouth was almost dry, Ji Xiaqiu patted his grandson's shoulder and asked: "Did you listen to what I just said or not?"

"Yes." Rong Li agreed.

"Then which one do you like?"

"Anything is fine?" Ji Xiaqiu's eyes widened.

Rong Li shrugged his shoulders. "Since Grandmother thinks highly of these girls, then I presume that the family's temperament is one in a thousand. No matter which one it is, it's definitely more than enough to match me. I naturally can."

Ji Xiaqiu was infuriated: "Then you don't even want one of them?"

Rong Li put down the picture book and patted his grandmother's shoulder, fawning on her. "Marriage is a big affair, there's no need to rush it."

Rong Li nodded. "We will listen to Grandmother."

Ji Xiaqiu was furious after hearing what she said. What do you mean by listening to her?

Thus, Ji Xiaqiu began to play the trick. "Grandmother is getting on in age, she won't live for much longer, before she dies, she wanted to …"

"Grandmother, you are in good health. You can live another thirty years without any problems. Don't curse yourself." Rong Li interrupted without a trace of politeness.

Ji Xiaqiu: "..."

After returning to the city and settling his grandmother down, he decided to go to the Qingle Hall.

Ji Xiaqiu pulled him back: "I'm not asking you to go back to the capital to see a doctor. If you don't want to become a family member, then you're not allowed to go to a clinic!"

Rong Li blinked his eyes and said, "I'm not going to the medicine store. I have something to take care of these days, so I won't. But I have to go to the medicine store to get the medicine."

Ji Xiaqiu humphed, "What do you want? Isn't it just trying to avoid me? "

"No, I want to enter the palace." "His Majesty has thought of a plan for the drought in Dingzhou, and I will be needed to prepare the food for you. I will not be coming home every day for the time being."

Ji Xiaqiu was furious: "I told you to look at this lady, you said that you won't be coming home everyday, and that you didn't mean to hide from me!"

"Grandmother …" Rong Li patiently coaxed, "This matter concerns hundreds of thousands of people in Dingzhou. It cannot be child's play."

Although Lady Xiu Dian had not reached the point of being hungry, she had indeed suffered greatly. From the start of the drought, Ji Xiaqiu had always sent money to Dingzhou and even donated a lot of funds in the name of Xiu Dian. As an ordinary merchant woman, this was all she could do.

Although she was anxious about her grandson's marriage, her grandson's serious mention of the disaster in Dingzhou still moved her.

She asked, "Does the imperial government really have a way to resolve this?"

Rong Li nodded. "Yes."

Ji Xiaqiu was not convinced, "The crux of the problem lies in the lack of food. There is a shortage in the north and a shortage in the south. Before the month, the imperial government spent one hundred thousand silver taels to pay a high price to the south of the river.

Right now, the citizens of Jiangnan will only be able to use it. Even if the imperial government were to pay another one hundred thousand silver taels, if they wanted to buy rice from Jiangnan, they would have to pay a price but there is no market for it. Right now in every part of Qingyun Peak, there is no more food left.

Ji Xiaqiu said as she glanced at Rong Li.

Rong Li shook his head seriously, "The military rations cannot be moved."

Ji Xiaqiu sighed, "The only food left in the country right now are all for the border army to prepare. You said the emperor has a way to prepare food, how do you plan on doing it then?"

Rong Li patted his grandmother on the shoulder. "Anyway, there's a way."

Seeing his grandson promise that, Ji Xiaqiu could only nod his head: "If you can really prepare the rations, you can go. In this period of time, I will go to each family to take a look and see which family has a good lady.

Rong Li wrote an empty cheque and immediately replied: "Of course."

Ji Xiaqiu couldn't choose his fault either, so she let him go.

Rong Li went to the Clear Music Hall first, took the medicine that had been prepared by the shopkeeper, and personally brought it to the palace.

Inside Shang Qing Hall, Rong Jindong had ordered the surrounding palace servants, and after seeing that she and Rong Li were the only two people left, she walked down the stage and asked: "Is that all?"

Rong Li nodded, "That's it, but we still need a secluded pharmacy to make the pill soup."

Rong Jindong smiled, "We will bring you there."

Rong Li had absolutely not expected that Rong Jindong would set up the refining room behind Shang Qing Hall. The two places were not too far apart, they would at most last for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Rong Jindong opened the Pill Refining Room, and saw that there was a medicine cabinet furnace inside, he scanned through it, and then heard from the Emperor asking: "Is it alright?"

Rong Li nodded blankly: "Completely comprehensive, it is beyond my imagination."

Rong Jindong heaved a sigh of relief: "It's good that it's alright, the disaster is severe, we don't have much time left."

Rong Li also became serious as he promised, "I will make the medicine within three days." But then he continued: "But before that, I need to see Zhong Ziyu first, I need to check if his current body is able to take all the medicinal properties of the pill. The Emperor knows that this pill is extremely dangerous, and the dose is slightly off, people who consume it will easily lose their lives."

Rong Jindong frowned, as though she was hesitating.

"Is it not convenient for him to come out?"

Rong Jindong nodded her head, "It was not easy for him to sneak in. It was indeed not easy for him to come out, let us think of a way."
