"Good, Su Peisheng, reward him."
Physician Qin stepped out of the inner room and looked around in the moonlight.
Wow, a thousand taels! He instantly sobered up and subconsciously wondered if the Fourth Prince would still order him to come and take his pulse at this time tomorrow. It wasn't impossible.
He had to choose between his hair and his purse; if he had to choose, he would choose the purse.
