Chapter 199: Concubine asks for medicine, generous
A few days passed, the relief hall was in order and everything was on track.
Tang Xiluo started living a bad life again.
"Princess! This old servant pays respect to you, Princess."
The housekeeper came running in hurriedly.
The corner of Tang Xiluo's eye twitched. He thought that the butler was in such a hurry to find him that it must be something bad.
"what happened?"
"Princess, the Queen Mother asked you to come to the palace."
Tang Xiluo: “…” If it was anyone else he would have refused, but it had to be the Queen Mother, how could he refuse?
"Ahem, I understand."
After entering the palace, Tang Xiluo sighed weakly. She seemed to be very busy recently, but she didn't know what she was busy with, so much so that she fell behind in her martial arts lessons.
Too serious a suspicion that a dog man doesn't want to teach himself.
"The daughter-in-law pays respect to the mother."
The Queen Mother smiled brightly, "Lolo, hurry up. You haven't been to my place for a while, right? Have you forgotten me?"
Tang Xiluo quickly shook her head and began her sweet talk.
"Mother, your daughter-in-law misses you every day. So I came in today as soon as I had some free time."
The Queen Mother glared at her unhappily and said, "Didn't I summon you in today?"
Tang Xiluo nodded and then shook her head, "Mother, I have just finished my work recently. Even if you don't summon your daughter-in-law today, she will still have to go to the palace."
The Queen Mother: “…” This is something without any basis, it’s just nonsense made up by her.
"Hahahaha, you're really becoming more and more eloquent."
"No, no, how is your health lately, mother?"
The Queen Mother's eyes softened as she spoke of this. "My body is getting stronger day by day, all thanks to your medicine. Not only are they effective, but they are not bitter at all."
Tang Xiluo smiled and said, "As long as the Queen Mother is healthy, I will make this medicine even if it takes me 81 days."
Everyone knew she was talking nonsense, but they couldn't help laughing.
"You, I heard you built a temple outside?"
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, it is a relief hall, which is used to help those in distress and provide them with a safe haven from the wind and rain."
The Queen Mother had heard about this a long time ago. Logically speaking, women are not allowed to interfere in government affairs. The issue of beggars has existed since ancient times, and no one has been able to handle this matter properly.
The little girl next to me was willing to do her best and actually made such a big move, which really impressed me.
This little girl is so smart, sweet-spoken, pretty, has great medical skills and cares about the world.
Chen'er's ability to marry her was a blessing from his previous life.
"If there is anything you need help with, just tell me. I will definitely help you as long as I can." As the queen mother of the country, she should lead by example and consider the people.
Tang Xiluo nodded, "The daughter-in-law would like to thank the Queen Mother on behalf of everyone!"
After walking out of Yongshou Palace, Tang Xiluo breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that all the flattery he had given in his life had been used on the Empress Dowager.
But the effect is quite good. The Queen Mother likes it very much and it makes her very happy every time.
"Princess, are we going back home?"
Tang Xiluo waved his hand and said, "Now that you are here, don't go back home yet. Go see your elder sister first."
"Your servant/servant greets the princess!"
"Get up, is Madam Shiji in the house?"
As soon as she finished asking the question, Tang Xirou's voice came from the room.
"Lolo, come in quickly."
Tang Xiluo walked in happily, bowed jokingly, and said, "Greetings to Madam Shiji."
Tang Xirou glanced at the little girl unhappily. Whose good man's title is Shi? Although she didn't understand why the little girl used this word, she knew that she had bad intentions from her teasing eyes every time.
"Lolo, stop making trouble."
"Your concubine greets the princess."
Tang Xiluo was startled when he heard the voice. Why was there someone else in the house?
As soon as I came in, I only paid attention to my elder sister and ignored the people next to me.
"Greetings to the young master."
"Hello, Princess. My name is Yao Shu."
Tang Xiluo: “...Oh.” Why tell me this? I don’t really want to know.
"This is Lady Yao."
Although Tang Xiluo behaved very coldly, this noble lady Yao still tried to please him.
"Princess, do you still have the ointment you gave Sister Shiji last time? Can you give me some? I can buy it with silver."
Tang Xirou had declined the offer several times before her sister came. She was in a difficult situation because she wanted to keep this top-quality medicine for her family. After all, it was priceless.
I didn't expect that this noble person would come again today, and happened to meet my own sister.
Tang Xirou was a little worried. She was afraid that her sister would behave indifferently again. If she really gave the ointment away indifferently, she would be heartbroken.
The last time Concubine Yao saw the disfigured Tang Xirou, she thought she was completely gone, but she didn't expect that not only did she recover as before, but she became more lively and beautiful than before.
After a little inquiry, I found out that she had a box of priceless ointment.
Not only can it cure scars, it can also beautify and nourish the skin, so I immediately came over with a box of gold, silver and jewelry.
As long as I can get this box of ointment, I am willing to pay any price.
What's more, she was born in a merchant family. Although she lacked social status, what she had the most was money.
But she didn't expect to be rejected one after another, but she was not angry.
Who would be willing to give up such a good thing? It is normal to be rejected a few times.
"Princess Chen, just tell me how much silver you need."
Tang Xiluo looked at Tang Xirou, "???" Isn't the ointment in my sister's hand? Why are you asking me?
Tang Xirou gave her a helpless look.
Tang Xiluo understood immediately.
Tang Xirou breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ahem, does Lady Yao really want this ointment? Where do you have the scar?"
Concubine Yao quickly showed her wrist, she was well prepared.
"I accidentally broke a bowl that day and cut my wrist, so I came to ask for ointment..."
Tang Xiluo nodded, "In that case, how much money do you plan to pay to take the ointment away, Lady Yao?"
Tang Xirou: “? !!!” Didn’t you say you would find an excuse to refuse? Why did you start talking about the price?
When Concubine Yao saw that there was hope, she quickly took the box from the maid behind her.
Then he opened it in front of everyone and said, "If Princess Chen is willing to give me the ointment, then I will give you all the jewels in this box."
Tang Xiluo: “…” That’s really thoughtful, it’s both a gift and a present.
Isn't it just a simple transaction?
