The empress withdrew her gaze and looked at the table indifferently.
"Doctor Hua is a rare talent. It's better not to personally test the medicine in the future."
"There are so many death row prisoners in the Imperial Prison. If Imperial Physician Hua needs them, he can pick one to test his medicine anytime."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Hua Weiqing heaved a sigh of relief, knelt down and thanked the Empress with a smile.
"The medicine developed this time contains several key rare medicinal ingredients. I am worried about waste, so I personally tested the medicine..."
The empress glanced at Hua Weiqing and smiled.
"No matter how rare the medicinal herbs are, they are not as important as Doctor Hua's life."
"If Imperial Physician Hua needs any medicinal herbs, feel free to go to the Imperial Pharmacy and get them..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"
Hua Weiqing looked at the empress with gratitude.
"I happen to be short of a few medicinal herbs, and the Imperial Pharmacy happens to have..."
The empress waved her hand and said, "If you need any herbs, go get them..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!" Hua Weiqing smiled excitedly.
She thanked the empress respectfully and left the imperial study with a hunched back.
After leaving the imperial study, the excited expression on Hua Weiqing's face suddenly disappeared, and he put his hands behind his back and breathed a long sigh of relief.
If he had nothing to ask for, the empress might not trust him.
Hua Weiqing chuckled dryly, this time he had accidentally gained some advantage.
He has indeed been developing a new drug to control people's minds recently, and he is missing a lot of medicinal ingredients.
This time, he had to go to the Imperial Pharmacy and rob it.
The more he took, the more relieved the empress felt.
Although he didn't know why the empress wanted to silence him, he knew about the Wu Ma Bu Guan and he had to keep silent about it in the future.
There's a high probability that something went wrong with Wu Ma Bu Guan...
.......
"Your Majesty..." The female official bowed slightly and said with drooping eyelids,
"Doctor Hua went to the Imperial Pharmacy and took away 13 kinds of precious century-old medicinal herbs, which made the Imperial Pharmacy's chief physician very angry..."
After Doctor Hua left the imperial study, the empress asked the female official to follow him.
The female official saw Doctor Hua enter the imperial pharmacy with her own eyes, and after he left with a bunch of medicinal materials, she went back into the imperial pharmacy to ask some questions.
When she went in, the chief physician was yelling and cursing at the top of his lungs.
"Your Majesty, this is the list of medicinal herbs that Doctor Hua took away..."
The female official placed the list of medicinal materials on the desk in front of the empress and stood aside respectfully.
She has to behave better, otherwise she won't be able to stay with the empress when the female official with gap teeth returns after completing her mission.
For so many years, she has been suppressed by the gap-toothed female officials. Now she finally has the opportunity to serve the empress personally, and she must do it well.
The empress lowered her eyes and glanced at the list of medicinal herbs on the table.
"Hundred-year-old ginseng, hundred-year-old ganoderma, cordyceps, bird's nest, pangolin, musk, poria cocos, purple gold ingot..."
After reading it, the corners of the empress's mouth twitched slightly.
This Hua Weiqing is really rude.
However, she felt much more relieved after seeing Hua Weiqing do this.
The empress raised her hand and knocked on the list of medicinal materials on the table.
"Announce----Wuma Quande, the patriarch of the Wuma family!"
After shutting Hua Weiqing's mouth, it was time for her to meet the Wu Ma family.
What is coming will eventually come, and she has to be the one to take the initiative.
“.....Yes!” The female official was stunned for a moment, then responded quickly and walked out.
She thought the empress was going to say something about Hua Weiqing's greed.
As a result, the empress didn't mention the medicinal materials at all.
After the empress watched the female official leave, she took the list of medicinal herbs on the table, folded it, and put it in the desk drawer.
She was thinking about how to tell the Wu Ma family.
The empress went over the matter over and over in her mind, and only breathed a sigh of relief after she was sure there were no mistakes.
She frowned and looked at the door of the imperial study.
"Why haven't you come for so long?!"
"Could it be that the Wu Ma family discovered something?"
The empress walked to the door of the imperial study, looked at the setting sun, and felt very nervous.
She couldn't help but feel an instinctive fear towards the patriarch of the Wu Ma family.
The patriarch of the Wu Ma family has eyes as deep as a lake, which seem to be able to see into people's hearts.
She didn't want to see this old guy unless it was absolutely necessary.
Just when the empress couldn't help but send someone to check again, the female official came back running with sweat all over her head.
