Chapter 5: Emptying the streets and alleys, preparing to flee.



In the Great Yan Dynasty, to ensure the safety of the emperor and empress's medication, not only were the medicines tested, but the remaining dregs after the medicine was decocted were also dried and stored properly for future investigation.

When Ning Xi'er was emptying the Imperial Pharmacy, she glanced around and saw several medicine cabinets in the space, all filled with dried and packaged medicinal dregs.

The wrapped dregs are sealed with a red seal, and the name of the prescription, the name of the clinic, the name of the person who prepared the medicine, and the preparation time are clearly marked.

Ning Xi'er glanced at it quickly and saw that it was full of records of medicine residue from the emperor, empress, concubines, princes, and princesses, but no records of medicine residue from princes, ministers, and their families.

Based on the original owner's memories, Ning Xi'er was highly suspicious of the sudden illness of the original owner's birth mother, Chen Meng, and the series of events that followed...

Since the Imperial Pharmacy has already been emptied, let's take the opportunity to visit the Imperial Medical Academy as well.

When princes, ministers, and their families fell ill, they could go to the Imperial Hospital to request treatment from imperial physicians. Presumably, there should be quite a few medical records of these cases.

Furthermore, the Imperial Pharmacy is filled with effective and precious medicines, but to survive in this world, besides life-saving remedies, Ning Xi'er also needs many unorthodox pills and powders...

Examples include date rape drugs, hallucinogens, itching drugs, drugs to induce a false death, disfiguring drugs, aphrodisiacs, and various poisons...

These kinds of imperial pharmacies were impossible, and even the Imperial Medical Academy rarely had them; one or two medical clinics might not have them all...

Therefore, Ning Xi'er plans to sweep up all the medical clinics and warehouses in the capital!

The clinics were scattered throughout the market areas on both sides of the Imperial Street, with many shops and stores nearby, which made it convenient for Ning Xi'er to stock up on other supplies.

Previously, the items hoarded in the Marquis's mansion and the palace were mostly gold, silver, treasures, and rare paintings and calligraphy. Although there were daily necessities, they were not complete or abundant enough.

The Imperial Hospital was on the street, and Ning Xi'er planned to go all the way there and empty all the warehouses of all the shops.

Upon entering the Imperial Medical Academy, where doctors were busily examining patients and dispensing medicine, Ning Xi'er concealed herself and strode straight in, entering the storeroom.

They took away all the prepared medicines and pills, and also took away all the medical records and files.

Considering that the Imperial Medical Academy was responsible for its own profits and losses and for providing medical care to the common people, Ning Xi'er symbolically left behind a piece of gold.

Passing by steamed bun shops, fried dough stick shops, meat pie shops, snack shops, pastry shops, fruit stalls, rice and water stalls, barbecue stalls, dried meat stalls, eateries, restaurants, hotels, hotels...

All the warehouse space was used to store money, leaving enough silver.

They went through clothing shops, jewelry shops, spice shops, and headwear shops... and still emptied the warehouses, leaving behind only silver.

After passing through the carriage and horse shop, he put all the wheelbarrows, flatbed carts, mule carts, donkey carts, horse carts, ox carts, etc. stored in the courtyard into his storage space, leaving behind a box of silver.

After passing through the fodder shop, charcoal shop, saddle shop, weapons shop, and blacksmith shop, all the inventory was put into the space.

There were also sesame oil shops, candle shops, workshops that slaughtered cattle, sheep, and pigs, stalls selling rice, flour, and cooking oil, etc. Ning Xi'er emptied all the unseen inventory of the shop owners and managers...

Of course, they all left behind a corresponding amount of money.

After stockpiling supplies, Ning Xi'er breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a strong sense of security.

Even if you retreat to the deep mountains and forests to live a secluded life, you can still enjoy good food and drink and live a carefree life...

Street vendors discussed the time, preparing to pack up their goods and go home to prepare lunch...

Ning Xi'er then realized that there were only 15 minutes left before the wedding procession arrived.

Having stockpiled supplies, Ning Xi'er was naturally preparing to make a run for it!

Although she has taken over the original owner's body, the original owner's grudges and resentment have nothing to do with her.

Moreover, according to the original owner's memories, her past life was filled with complex experiences, and she was surrounded by wolves. If she didn't run away, she would face being remarried...

A scumbag father, a bunch of scheming women and their children in his household, and a scumbag husband...

The original owner's maternal grandfather faced numerous crises in the Prime Minister's mansion...

Just thinking about it makes me feel exhausted!

When emptying the warehouse, Ning Xi'er chose to empty the Prime Minister's residence as well, partly out of consideration for the original owner of the body. She thought that without their enviable wealth, they might avoid future troubles...

Ning Xi'er planned to stockpile supplies before the wedding procession arrived, not because she was in a hurry to go back...

Her success was due to her invisibility ability.

Once the original owner realizes this, Ning Xi'er has no intention of avenging her or changing her fate; the remaining consciousness continues to influence...

Ning Xi'er was worried that she would lose her invisibility and be unable to hide, whether she was stockpiling supplies or being discovered by the Marquis's mansion or the wedding procession, then she would have no chance of escaping...

Even with her exceptional skills and the vast amount of medicinal powder she had stockpiled in her spatial storage, she still had to fend off the pursuit of the royal family, the marquis's mansion, and other powerful forces...

That's really quite tragic!

Ning Xi'er had two quarters of an hour to stealthily leave the city before the original owner's consciousness awakened...

But just as he ran out of the street, a carriage in the middle of the road suddenly swayed slightly...

The bells hanging at the four corners of the carriage jingled softly, and through the lifted curtain, a pair of cold eyes seemed to lightly sweep over her!
