Chapter 892 What a Gift
The emperor accepted the two female doctors and immediately had them taken to the harem.
Concubine Le almost broke her nails.
She took a deep breath, a fierce look welling up in her eyes, but she suppressed it tightly.
Don't think she didn't hear what I said just now. She is the closest to the emperor. What kind of female doctor is this? Is she going to cause trouble in the inner palace?
But when she glanced at the ministers, she found that they all had happy expressions on their faces.
These stinky men also think that the gift from the Min country doctor is a good one!
Concubine Le looked at Prince Jun again, but the mask on his face was so obstructive that her face could not be seen at all. She also didn't know if he was like other men, coveting the two female doctors with their waists exposed.
"King Min is really polite. It seems that our Zhao Kingdom should also learn from Min Kingdom and promote female doctors." said the emperor.
The ministers all agreed.
"It's really good to have a female doctor."
"After you go back, you can also see if my daughter is interested in learning medicine." The emperor looked at Xiao Lanyuan, "Then let Princess Jun accept a disciple, and learn medicine from Princess Jun, how great is that?"
When these words were spoken, some people were moved, but some people still sneered.
How can a woman study medicine? Men and women should not touch each other. If you study medicine, you will have to come into contact with men frequently, especially sick men. You have to check their pulses, their mouths and tongues, their bodies, and bandage them.
Who among the noble ladies could do such a thing? Only a woman of humble origin could do that.
Not everyone can become a miracle doctor as soon as they learn it like Princess Jun. There is a huge difference between a miracle doctor and an ordinary female doctor.
"Your Majesty, why don't you take a look at what else the envoy has brought? We, the ministers, would also like to see it again." A minister quickly changed the subject.
"Oh, yes, yes." The emperor also came back to his senses. Of course, he was more interested in this.
Yuan Gang noticed the expressions of the people of Zhao State and waved his hand again, "Next, we have brought a unique beauty from Min State. Please enjoy it, Your Majesty and all the gentlemen."
Six people came in lined up outside, each holding a large box in their hands, which looked quite heavy.
They were lined up in the temple.
"Yuan Yi, go open the box."
"Yes, father."
The emperor leaned forward to get a better look. Six big boxes, six beautiful things? What were those beautiful things?
The ministers also looked in curiously.
Yuan Yi opened the six boxes one after another.
"This is a kind of fine jade produced in our Min Kingdom. Please enjoy the utensils carved from this fine jade."
At first glance, each item in the box looks crystal clear, but from a distance you can't tell what it is.
The emperor couldn't sit still and stood up.
"Fine jade? But is it the beautiful, holy, pure and icy jade that is rumored to be so pure?"
"Exactly."
The emperor came to the front and said, "Quick, put it down, let me take a good look at it."
Six fine jade utensils were brought out and placed on the box.
All the ministers gathered around.
Of course, they had also heard of fine jade. In fact, Zhao State also had a kind of water jade, which was similar to fine jade. However, although Zhao State's water jade looked somewhat moist, its transparency was far from enough, and it could not be called stunning or expensive.
But now, these six pieces of fine jade from the Min Kingdom were placed in front of them, which made them all exclaim in amazement.
"This is a fruit box carved from fine jade. Fruit candies are placed inside, and the colors can also be seen through it."
"This is a candlestick. Your Majesty can order someone to light a candle and try it out now."
A palace maid came over and lit a candle.
The candlelight was illuminated by the crystal clear jade, revealing countless small circles of light. The jade was also stained with wonderful light and shadow, which looked magnificent.
"Beautiful, it's so beautiful!"
"This is a dressing box. It is carved with the Strelitzia reginae, which represents wealth and longevity in our Min Kingdom. Do you see it? The core of the flower is purple. This piece of fine jade has a few spots that are slightly purple, which is a perfect match with the Strelitzia reginae. The whole dressing box is radiant with purple and is extremely exquisite."
Yuan Yi was explaining it to them, and he spoke with great pride.
When Concubine Le heard this, she could no longer sit still. She could listen calmly to other things, but when she heard about the purple jade dressing box that represented wealth and longevity, she immediately stood up and walked over.
No, she also needs to take a look quickly.
At first glance, this purple jade dressing box seemed intricate and noble. Its translucent texture and glittering purple light were so beautiful that they sparkled in her eyes.
So beautiful!
This is absolutely unique in Zhaoguo!
Such an exquisite thing must be hers, right?
Concubine Le stared at the dressing box, unable to take her eyes away.
"And this one, a peach tree carved from pink jade."
It was an ornament, but they had never seen pink jade before. The longevity peach was crystal clear and looked very attractive.
If I put it in the house, I would be happy to look at it every day.
The next few pieces were also extremely exquisite, and they couldn't take their eyes off them. They really wished they could get one.
"Is there a lot of fine jade from the Min Kingdom?" the emperor asked after taking a deep breath.
"The mineral resources are very rich, but this kind of high-quality jade is hard to find, so each piece is worth a fortune," said Yuan Yi.
So they came from afar to bring these six fine jade utensils, which was enough to show their sincerity.
"If the emperor and other gentlemen like it, you can come to me to discuss it when the time comes." Yuan Gang said proudly.
The sale of these fine jade utensils alone can increase the financial strength of the Min Kingdom.
"Dahe——"
The emperor couldn't help but want to ask Da He whether he had done any fine jade business with their Min Kingdom, but he felt that it was a waste of time to talk about this now, and he had to see what other gifts Min Kingdom had sent first.
There must be more.
Yuan Gang also knew what he was thinking, so he continued to bring in gifts.
This time, four people were carrying something covered with black cloth, each as tall as a person, so it was impossible to tell what it was.
Everyone's curiosity was aroused again.
"Your Excellency the Envoy, what is this?" Someone couldn't wait and asked anxiously.
At this time, Xiao Lanyuan's eyes fell on the palace servants who were carrying the fine jade utensils to the side hall. Concubine Le was also paying attention to the fine jade utensils.
She would move the things in first, and when the envoys left the palace, she would definitely beg the emperor to give her the purple crystal dressing box.
The most exquisite things should be worthy of a woman like her who is noble and the only one favored in the harem.
"Your Majesty, this is a ginseng fruit tree." Yuan Gang said, pulling away the cloth covering it.
A fruit tree planted in a clay pot appeared before them.
"Ginseng fruit?"
"Yes, the ginseng fruit trees were transplanted from a mysterious mountain. After they were brought back to the Min Kingdom, it took the energy and effort of several of our ministers of agriculture to grow only five of them," said Yuan Gang.
