Hongchen's face showed neither sorrow nor joy; he calmly accepted the bow and solemnly returned it.
"You flatter me, seniors. This is what I should do,"
Everyone was overjoyed.
“Master Hongchen, now that the prescription is ready, we should brew more medicine as soon as possible and distribute it to the people.”
Hongchen sighed silently.
"I'm afraid it will be quite difficult!"
"What?" Everyone was a little surprised. Once the prescription was given, all that was needed was to brew the medicine. What was so difficult about that?
The experienced doctor's expression darkened; he probably knew the reason.
Hongchen silently took out the prescription from her bosom and handed it to an old doctor.
The old doctor reached out and took it, glanced at it, and then fell silent.
The others reached out and took the prescription, then were speechless after reading it.
The group exchanged bewildered glances; this recipe was truly not something ordinary people could afford.
Linghu Lan smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
The personal maidservant hurriedly stepped forward to take the prescription from the doctors, and Linghu Lan took a look.
The rest of the ingredients in the prescription are ordinary medicines, except for the last one, which is gold (two ounces of refined gold leaf).
Linghu Lan: "..."
Gold contains many impurities; unrefined gold is called raw gold, while refined gold is called refined gold. Gold leaf has a different meaning; it is the most refined of refined gold, with an extremely high purity.
Given the current national strength and purification technology of the Yu Kingdom, it would take almost the entire nation's resources to afford so much gold foil to cure the tens of thousands of people in Yu City.
She gazed wistfully at the mortal world.
Sure enough, my sister's Tang is incredibly expensive in every dimension.
A prescription I came up with so casually actually required the entire nation's resources to be mobilized.
You've really got me!
She sighed, secretly wondering if she should use the prescription to blackmail Hongchen into sleeping with her.
Give me the gold after we sleep together? After all, I'm almost depressed.
#System's Godly Disdain: He's a monk, isn't he afraid of being struck by lightning by Buddha?
Linghu Lan, brimming with heroic spirit: What's there to be afraid of? Even if I get struck by lightning under the peony, I'll still be a romantic ghost.
System: Lust is an illness, it needs treatment! #
"It's alright!" Linghu Lan stood up. "This is to save His Majesty's people, so the gold leaf will naturally be supplied by the imperial court!"
The doctors were excited.
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Regent! Long live the Regent!"
Even the patients lying in their hospital beds struggled to get out of bed and kneel on the ground.
Only then did they realize that the distinguished person sitting here was actually the Regent, who was second only to the Emperor.
"Thank you, Regent, for saving my life! Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Regent!"
Praises rose all around, but Linghu Lan only looked at the mortal world.
Hongchen laughed.
His expression was relaxed and joyful.
He bowed deeply.
Linghu Lan walked up to him and bowed as well.
Hongchen panicked, blushed, and hurriedly stepped aside.
"This humble monk dares not!"
Everyone: "..."
Regent, you're too impatient.
Why rush into marriage in front of everyone?
Linghu Lan was speechless.
Why are your thoughts so complicated?
I only wanted to thank him for saving the people of Yucheng. You are all so filthy...
#HehedaSystem: You lie so smoothly, doesn't your wallet hurt?
Linghu Lan: Don't mention money, it's too painful! The poorest we've ever been! #
One afternoon.
The prescription for treating the plague has been developed, and the news that His Majesty ordered craftsmen to create gold leaf for the purpose of making the medicine has spread throughout the entire city of Yu.
Such kindness should be attributed to the young emperor, after all, he will likely become the longest-reigning emperor of the Yu Kingdom.
