Chapter 265 Promise her!
"If you agree to help me avenge the murder of Concubine Rou and my father, my Di family is willing to help the Great Zhou open all the gates of Beining and allow Beining to appear on the map of the Great Zhou."
"I...I can still pay back the money to Dr. Jin."
Jin Congcong shouted breathlessly, "Promise her, Ruo'er...ah...promise her! Eight...eight taels of silver."
Bu Ruo ignored someone's howling and continued to look at Guo Lu: "Have you thought it through? If this happens, you will no longer be the princess of Beining."
Guo Lu nodded. "I've thought it through. My mother once said that witchcraft is something evil and shouldn't exist in this world. It disrupts the balance. When my father spreads witchcraft to all the people of Beining, it means... Beining will be destroyed sooner or later."
"Although I have no ambition to become emperor, I also don't want the people of Beining to be treated like monsters and hunted down by the other two countries in the future. While there's still time... I beg your Majesty for a favor. I'm willing to remain by your side as a slave. That way, you won't have to worry about my Di army rebelling."
Bu Ruo hummed, "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. As long as Beining doesn't go too far, Da Zhou has no plans to attack Beining for the time being. As for the civil unrest in Beining, we don't want to get involved either."
Seeing Guo Lu's eyes dim, Bu Ruo continued, "But you are right. Witchcraft and sorcery should only stay in their own planes and should not exist in the human world. Regarding this matter...this princess agrees, but I still need to discuss it with the prince. You should go back and wait for news."
Guo Lu excitedly kowtowed to Bu Ruo and prepared to leave. When she reached the gate of the courtyard and saw Jin Congcong on the tree, she thought for a moment and decided to walk over.
"Little Divine Doctor Jin, I have already told the princess clearly my identity and purpose. You don't have to be so wary of me in the future."
"besides……"
Guo Lu took out eight taels of silver from her waist pouch and placed it under the tree. She also touched Da Huang, who was guarding the tree. "This is the eight taels of silver I cheated you of. I'm returning it to you now. Don't worry, I will never try to take advantage of you again. I'm very sorry for what happened in the past. I hope you can forgive me."
Jin Congcong's eyes lit up when he looked at the eight taels of silver. He never thought that one day the silver he was cheated out of would be returned. It actually came back.
"Okay, okay. As long as you don't worry about me and the prince and don't harm Ruo'er, everything else is trivial."
"Since you paid me back the money, I will forgive you for lying to me."
Guo Lu smiled. During her time in the palace, she had some understanding of everyone's personality.
Regent Prince Xiao Yulan is decisive and extremely cold-blooded. He would not even glance at others even if they died in front of him, even though it was none of his business. However, he dotes on his wife to no end and obeys the princess in everything. He never refuses anything and only shows an expression on his face in front of the princess.
The Regent Princess has a changeable personality. She talks and laughs as if she doesn't care about anything, but she can see through everything. She never takes other trivial matters to heart, but if it involves the people she cares about... then there will be bloodshed. She is a person who will never tolerate any injustice and will never let go of any grudge. It is best not to provoke such a person.
As for Jin Congcong... he has a kind heart, but his brain doesn't seem to be very useful. If you say he cares about money, he can use all his money to help others. If you say he doesn't care about money, he can't sleep for several nights because of a copper coin.
Well... he's just a good guy with no brains.
After being chased for a whole day, Jin Congcong's cub was finally released by Doctor Du.
"Come here, you fool, let me take your pulse."
After dinner, Doctor Du sat in the yard, teaching the two little ones while waving at someone.
"Hmm... I've been running all day, so here, take this pill and see how it works tomorrow."
Jin Congcong took the pill and swallowed it directly: "When will this poison be cured? How many days will it take?"
Doctor Du stroked his beard and said, "If it was a pill I made, it would have worked in two hours at most. As for what you ate... let's observe it for a while."
Jin Congcong: ???!!!
"What I ate...wasn't the elixir you made?"
"No."
"Who made it?"
"It's been practiced step by step. How is it? My new disciple is really amazing, isn't he better than you? When you were this old, he couldn't even recognize all the herbs."
Doctor Du couldn't hide the smugness on his face. "The elixir you just ate was all prepared by Bu Bu alone, from selecting the herbs to refining it. I didn't even take a look at it. And it only took Bu Bu one day to make the elixir. I'm so relieved, I'm really relieved."
Jin Congcong stared at Bu Bu who was sitting on a small stool fiddling with herbs and swallowed.
"Old man, are you saying...she did everything by herself, from selecting the herbs to refining them? She didn't select the herbs...from that medicine basket of yours, did she?"
Jin Congcong: It’s over, it’s over. Bubu is only a few years old. There are so many herbs in the medicine basket, and they look so similar. If I pick the wrong one, won’t I be the one to die?
Doctor Du curled his lips when he saw him like that: "Of course not~"
"That's good……"
"I picked it from the storehouse where the herbs are kept in the mansion."
Jin Congcong: ...
"Old man, you're going to die! That warehouse contains herbs you bought, I bought, Mo Bao found, others gave them to you, and the emperor awarded them. There are at least hundreds of herbs. Bubu is only a few years old, and you actually let her pick the herbs herself... You... Aren't you using me to test the medicine?"
"Wow... I knew you wanted to clean up the mess, but I didn't expect you to be so anxious."
"Old man, have you ever thought about how sad Bu Bu would be if I died? The elixir she made with her own hands sent me away. How much of a blow must that be to her..."
Doctor Du snorted, "Do you think I'm a miracle doctor for nothing? Even if Bubu picked up the wrong herbs, I can still save you. What's there to worry about?"
Bu Ruo was also sitting in the rocking chair, cultivating his spiritual sense while nodding: "Well, if Grandpa Du can't help, I'll still be there. If he really dies... at worst, I can go to the underworld and bring you back. It's just a little suffering, don't worry."
Just when Jin Congcong wanted to resist, Bu Bu also raised his head: "Brother, don't worry, Bu Bu was very careful when picking herbs. Although I accidentally mixed up Gelsemium elegans and Gelsemium elegans, I picked it out and corrected it during the inspection."
"Hmm... As for the others, they shouldn't kill people and can even detoxify. It's just that you might suffer a little. After all, Grandpa didn't give Bubu the prescription. Bubu figured it out on his own."
"And Grandpa said he would back Bubu up, so Bubu can research without worry."
Jin Congcong: ...
