Famine Escape: Husband, Here's a Ginseng

Gao Zhijun, an all-powerful gold-medal female assassin from the 22nd century, transmigrated one day to become a thirteen-year-old farm girl.

During a year of famine, she fled with her family....

Chapter 287: Princess Xiangyun

The next day, Liu Ningchu, Murong Yuanbo and Gao Zhijun got up early in the morning, and then ordered the servants to prepare the incense table for offering the imperial edict, as well as the silver as a reward for the father-in-law.

The general's mansion was busy early in the morning, which alarmed the people. They didn't know what was going on in the mansion.

After the morning court session, Eunuch Zhang came to the general's residence with two imperial edicts. Murong Yuanbo and Gao Zhijun were already waiting.

"Hello, Eunuch Zhang, thank you for your hard work!"

Murong Yuanbo saw Eunuch Zhang coming with two young eunuchs, each holding an imperial edict.

"It's not hard. This is what our family should do. First of all, we congratulate the General of the Cavalry on being crowned a prince. This is a prestigious position. We will look up to the prince in the future."

"This must be the miraculous doctor Princess Xiangyun, a truly stunning beauty, a lady from a noble family. I would like to thank the princess for the life-extending elixir and detoxification pills she sent me."

After congratulating Murong Yuanbo, Eunuch Zhang congratulated Gao Zhijun and thanked her for the life-extending pills and detoxification pills she gave him.

The life-extending pill is a priceless treasure, and the detoxification pill is also a priceless treasure, which can save your life at the critical moment.

"You're so polite, sir. It's just a small gift. I hope you don't mind it."

When Gao Zhijun looked at Eunuch Zhang, she knew that he was a man who was good at getting along with everyone and could adapt to the situation. Such people have both good and bad sides.

If he is loyal to you, he will be devoted to you. If he doesn't like you, he will definitely step on you and stab you.

"How could our family reject such a precious medicine? Others can't buy it even if they want to."

How could Eunuch Zhang be disgusted? He was so happy that he couldn't contain his excitement.

Apart from the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, only he and his godson received such treatment, and the ministers in the court had to pay for it with real money.

Before Gao Zhijun returned from the border, Tao Yuanzheng was already selling life-extending pills, detoxification pills, fever-reducing pills, cold pills, and heart-saving pills at the clinic. Tao Yuanzheng sold the life-extending pills for 15,000 taels of gold each, with a limit of two per day. The detoxification pills cost 10,000 taels of gold each, with a limit of two per day. The fever-reducing pills cost 5,000 taels of gold, with a monthly limit of ten. The cold pills cost 2,000 taels of gold each, with a monthly limit of fifty. The heart-saving pills were sold at a hefty price, the same as the life-extending pills, at 15,000 taels of gold each, with a monthly limit of five.

The master asked him what hunger marketing was, but he didn't understand it. However, that didn't stop him from listening to the master.

Although the pills were sold at a sky-high price, ministers in the court all scrambled to buy them.

They all knew that the Emperor and the Crown Prince both possessed life-extending pills and detoxification pills. They also wanted to possess these pills. They would have offended other ministers at court to some extent, and having life-extending pills and detoxification pills would save their lives at a critical moment.

Even if they asked the housekeeper to queue up and curry favor with Tao Yuanzheng, it would still be difficult to buy it.

"As long as you don't mind, they are just some ordinary pills, not as exaggerated as you said."

Gao Zhi said modestly.

She knew that Tao Yuan was selling her pills at exorbitant prices, and the key point was that the officials in the capital were all so wealthy. They could afford 15,000 taels of gold, or 150,000 taels of silver.

I don’t know how much money they have plundered from the people and how much harm they have done to ordinary people, so she feels at ease taking it.

"Princess, you are too modest. You have no idea how popular your pills are. Ministers in the court and major families in the capital are fighting over their heads to buy a life-extending pill, but they can't get one. Life-extending pills are so hard to come by right now."

When Eunuch Zhang saw Gao Zhijun talking about the life-extending elixir so easily and normally, he really thought she was amazing, being able to make such a magical elixir. No wonder the emperor wanted to adopt her as his goddaughter, which was equivalent to having a talisman.

"Father, you are exaggerating. It is just an ordinary pill, but it is hard to find the King of Ginseng."

Gao Zhijun really couldn't imagine that people in the capital would cherish their lives so much that they were willing to spend 15,000 taels of gold. People in ancient times were really afraid of death.

The ingredients for the life-extending pills were hard to come by, so the price was understandable. But cold pills and fever-reducing pills, which were very common medicines in her previous life and could be bought for just a dozen or twenty yuan, cost thousands of taels here. How could she not be shocked?

"The Cavalry General receives the order!"

Eunuch Zhang looked at the sky and knew that he would be out for a while, so he had to return to the palace early to report.

"Minister, accept the order!"

Murong Yuanbo, his wife, children and people from the general's mansion knelt down to receive the order.

"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: The brave and valiant General of the Cavalry, who has galloped across the battlefield, conquered all before him, and triumphed over the Tatars, I hereby appoint him the King of Zhenbei, and reward him with ten thousand taels of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, ten thousand pieces of silk, two manors, two courtyards, five shops, a Zhenbei Palace, and the fiefdom of Yongzhou. This is my decree!"

Eunuch Zhang read the imperial edict and waited for Murong Yuanbo to receive it and express his gratitude.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your grace. Long live the Emperor!"

Murong Yuanbo thanked the Lord for his grace, then stood up and took the imperial edict.

"Princess Xiangyun accepts the order!"

Eunuch Zhang handed the imperial edict to Murong Yuanbo, and then took another imperial edict from the young eunuch behind him.

"Your servant accepts the order!"

Gao Zhijun led everyone to kneel again to receive the order.

"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: Princess Xiangyun is intelligent and agile, with remarkable talent, prudent and virtuous, gentle and kind, and virtuous. She has won my heart, and I have chosen her as my goddaughter, naming her Princess Xiangyun. I grant her one hundred bolts of silk and satin, two chests of gold and silver jewelry, ten thousand taels of gold, and ten thousand taels of silver. I grant her a mansion, three courtyards, two farms, and a shop. Her food, clothing, and other expenses shall be provided to her according to her standards. I decree this!"

Eunuch Zhang read the imperial edict, and after reading it, he waited for Gao Zhijun to receive it!

"The princess bows in gratitude for your grace! Long live father, long live father, long live father!"

Gao Zhijun thanked the Lord for his grace and then received the imperial edict.

"Congratulations, Prince Zhenbei and Princess Xiangyun. Your rewards have been sent to Prince Zhenbei's Mansion and Princess Xiangyun's Mansion. Please check them later. Also, please go to the palace tomorrow to express your gratitude."
