"Alright, whatever you want, ask the steward for the money."
“Father, the rouge shop I’m talking about is different from others.” Zhao Shu already had a plan in mind. She originally thought that having studied traditional Chinese medicine, she would be more adept at opening a clinic, but she had never actually worked as a doctor in a hospital, so her practical skills were not strong.
Moreover, as a princess of Dayong, it would be disgraceful for the royal family to show her face in public and treat patients.
That definitely wouldn't work. After thinking it over, she remembered many recipes she had memorized before. Opening a rouge shop and making rouge and face powders that were different from what Dayong already had, as well as Chinese herbal shampoos, would be easier to get started.
The only difficulty now is that the Yongwang Mansion has a bad reputation, so they need to find outside help.
"What kind of rouge shop does Ah Jun want to open?" Prince Yong had no idea what a rouge shop was.
Zhao Shu beckoned Green Ivy over, and Green Ivy came over. She turned Green Ivy around so that her back was facing Prince Yong.
"Father, look how forked the tips of the pothos vines are."
Prince Yong nodded. "So what?"
In Dayong, there is a saying that one's body and hair are given to one's parents. Except for young children who can cut their hair, once they grow their hair into adulthood, they are not allowed to cut it for the rest of their lives, otherwise it is considered unfilial.
Of course, this doesn't apply to monks and nuns.
"Ah Jun was reading medical books and saw the medicinal properties of many herbs that might be useful for hair growth and health. She was thinking of finding a royal physician to prescribe a shampoo formula..." As she spoke, her voice gradually lowered.
Did Prince Yong think this was a good idea? He was about to agree when he remembered that he seemed to have offended the head of the Imperial Medical Academy. It would be strange if the head of the academy agreed to make a prescription.
"Do we really have to see the imperial physician? Aren't there plenty of famous doctors in the capital?"
Zhao Shu nodded, "The imperial physicians are authoritative." She had considered this. Unlike minerals, Chinese medicine is not easily identifiable. This is not modern times, where there are no patents. If it was developed by an imperial physician, it would surely be renowned throughout the country. With the Yongwang Mansion backing it up, it would be much easier to make a breakthrough.
"Um... I'm looking for your royal uncle."
"Did Father agree?" Of course Zhao Shu wanted to go to Emperor Mingde, but when it came to opening her own shop, the first person she should consult was her father, both morally and logically.
She clearly distinguishes between those close to her and those distant from her.
“Why does Father disagree? Look at this hair, it’s so ugly and unsightly,” he said in a serious tone.
So, Zhao Shu, carrying the white jade chessboard, made her way to the Taihe Hall.
Therefore, you should never offend a doctor, no matter who else you may offend.
