Chapter 22



"Sixteen thousand taels!"

Ye Shiqing added another 1,000 taels.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, that emotionless voice rang out again.

"Twenty thousand taels!"

"Twenty thousand taels, is there a higher price?"

"Is there anyone here who can offer a higher price?"

"Taiwan!" the old man in charge of hosting the event shouted excitedly.

Two plants of medicinal herbs that normally sell for five or six thousand taels were sold at auction for four or five times the price.

Let you have a strong sense of pride.

"Twenty thousand taels?"

Ye Shiqing stood up from her chair in an instant.

She came to the window and looked through the screen at the corner of the auction hall.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Do you really have to get this black flower?"

Ye Shiqing's brows were tightly knitted together, and her fingernails on her fair and white hands had dug into her flesh.

"Forget it, let's make one last attempt."

"If the next bid is higher, I will have to give up for now."

There was a murderous flash in her eyes, and she offered a higher price.

"Twenty-five thousand taels."

As soon as this price was announced, the entire auction hall was in an uproar.

"This is crazy. How can anyone spend such a huge amount of money to buy this kind of medicine?"

"I know whose prodigal son this is."

"Hey, do you think that guy behind us will still follow us?"

"Could it be that the auction house is trying to raise the prices on purpose?"

"......"

After Ye Shiqing quoted the price, her heart started pounding and she became extremely nervous.

Twenty-five thousand taels was all the money she had with her.

If the other party offers a higher price, she will have to give up temporarily and think about it in the long run.

"I hope you want to die!"

"Otherwise, even if I have to dig a long way, I will definitely find you."

Ye Shiqing spoke in a cold tone, staring at that corner with blinking eyes.

To her surprise, after she reported the figure of 25,000 taels, the man actually stood up.

He went straight to the back door of the auction hall.

"Hmm? You're leaving?"

"Could it be that your target is only this black jade flower, and you are interested in other auction items?"

"Or is it that you are deliberately arguing with me?"

Ye Shiqing said to herself.

As soon as she thought of this, she rushed to the man in black behind her and ordered, "Follow 놛 and find out 놛's identity."

"Catch him alive if possible."

.........

After a quarter of an hour, the man in black returned to the box.

"Have you got any clues?" Ye Shiqing asked.

"That person was very strong. I only followed him for one street before he discovered me."

"I wanted to get it in a remote place, but I lost it."

Hearing this, Ye Shiqing's forehead was throbbing with veins.

Bai Duo spent nearly 22,000 taels of silver, and she felt like she was being cheated.

This feeling was extremely uncomfortable, and made such a proud girl so depressed that she almost vomited blood.

But now she could only grit her teeth and swallow it. Even if she wanted to take revenge, she had to find the culprit.

"Forget it. Even though it cost a little more money, the purpose was achieved after all."

"Let's go back to Ye Mansion!"

........

In Ye Mansion, Ye Hongtu’s exclusive study.

Ye Hongtu, who was handling public affairs, suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Ye Hongtu said in a stern voice.

The next moment, Xuanjia pushed the door open and walked in.

"Lord, everything was done perfectly as you commanded."

"Oh? What price did the two black jade sedums fetch?"

Ye Hongtu's face showed interest.

A strange look flashed across Xuan Jia's face, and he replied, "Twenty-five thousand taels!"

"Twenty-five thousand taels?"

Even Ye Hongtu, who was prepared, was shocked by this amount.

"Haha, I didn't expect that this little girl would be willing to do this for Gu Changhe."

At the same time, he also admired Ye Shiqing's ability to make money.

Of the 25,000 taels of silver, 5,000 taels were lent to Ye Shiqing.

The remaining twenty thousand taels were paid out of Ye Shiqing's own pocket.

I just gave her a drugstore before, but I didn't expect her to run it to this extent.

"Okay, go down."

"Send someone to keep an eye on that girl. I think she will have a secret meeting with Gu Changhe recently."

"That's a great show, you can't miss it!"

........

Two days passed in a flash.

Zuixianlou is the most prosperous restaurant in Yanjing City.

In the Chinese-style box, a handsome young man in white clothes and holding a folding fan was sipping a cup of osmanthus wine.

There is always a smile on her face, giving people a feeling like spring breeze.

But when a door opens for you, it closes a window. Such an excellent creature has missing legs and can only rely on a wheelchair to walk.

“Boom boom boom!”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

A clear voice came from outside: "Sir, Miss Ye is here."

"Oh? Is Miss Shiqing here?"

"Let her in."

The young man put down his wine glass, his tone carrying a hint of urgency.

With a creaky sound, the door was pushed open and Ye Shiqing walked in.

"Greetings, Mr. Gu. Shi Qing is honored."

This young man is someone else, Gu Changhe from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Miss Shiqing, when we are together, we don't need to worry about these complicated details."

"Cuiyun, quickly give Miss Shiqing my treasured Biluochun tea to make."

Ye Shiqing celebrated the wedding with tea and wine, and Gu Changhe always kept this in mind.

Ye Shiqing smiled slightly: "Thank you, Mr. Gu."

After saying thank you, she directly explained the purpose of her visit.

"We made this appointment because I have concocted a miraculous medicine."

"This medicine has a 90% chance of restoring your legs to normal."

Ninety percent of it was just her humble statement. In fact, she was very sure that she could cure Gu Changhe.

"Ninety percent?"

Gu Changhe, who was always frightened, shuddered.

He stared at Ye Shiqing: "Shiqing? Really? Is it really 90% true?"

"Um!"

Ye Shiqing nodded, looking extremely confident.

"good!"

"If I can recover as usual, I will owe Miss Shiqing a huge favor."

"If I am sent to do anything, I will die."

Gu Changhe spoke in a serious tone.

No matter how mediocre you are, these legs will be a lifelong pain.

I never thought that this girl whom I somewhat admired could actually make such a miraculous medicine.

"Mr. Gu, you are too kind."

"That's a waste of time. I'll apply the medicine for you now."

As she spoke, Ye Shiqing took out a box and gently opened it.

Revealing the black ointment inside.

"Before applying the medicine, I need to make a small cut on both of Mr. Gu's legs. This will be more conducive to the absorption of the medicine."

"Shiqing, just do what you want!"

Gu Changhe waved his hands and said generously.

.......

About a quarter of an hour later, Ye Shiqing applied all the plasters on Gu Changhe's legs.

"Don't worry, Master Gu. The medicine will take effect in a quarter of an hour."

"When the time comes, you will feel numbness and itchiness in your legs, which is a sign that the drug is taking effect."

Gu Changhe smiled calmly: "Don't worry, more than a decade has passed, and it's also at this moment."

Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my legs, the pain went deep into my bones.

Even though I was calm, I broke out in a cold sweat on my head.

At this moment, Ye Shiqing also noticed the opponent's strength.

She was shocked to find that the skin on Gu Changhe's exposed legs was covered with purple-black lines that looked like spider webs.

These lines seemed to have life, spreading rapidly along Gu Changhe's legs and towards his upper body.
