Chapter 160 Ye Anling Returns
After Manager Lin sent the doctors away, he looked at Ye Chutang.
"I believe Miss Ye would not joke about human life. If there is a chance, I am willing to give the cowpox vaccination a try."
Ye Chutang said: "Vaccination will only make the body feel a little uncomfortable, it will not endanger life."
After that, she mentioned buying medicinal herbs.
"Manager Lin, just send the herbs to Tianshan County. I will arrange for someone to accompany you."
Shopkeeper Lin has already greeted the familiar medicinal herb merchants.
"Miss Ye, the price of the medicinal materials has been negotiated, and it's the lowest price."
As he spoke, he walked to the counter, took out a price list and handed it to Ye Chutang.
"Here are the prices and stock quantities of various medicinal herbs. Miss Ye, take a look. If you think they are not suitable, I will find other medicinal herb merchants."
Ye Chutang took the price list and read it carefully.
"This price is fine, but the quantity is not enough. Lin Zhangui, can I borrow your paper and pen?"
Shopkeeper Lin quickly handed Ye Chutang an unused account book and helped her grind ink.
"Miss Ye, please."
Ye Chutang looked at the medicine cabinet in front of him, wrote the name of a medicinal ingredient, and noted the price and quantity.
I stopped writing only when my wrist became sore.
She handed the account book to Shopkeeper Lin, "Please help me do the statistics, Shopkeeper Lin. I will arrange for someone to connect with the herbal medicine dealer, pay the deposit and deliver the goods."
"Miss Ye, you are too polite. I will definitely help you."
After Shopkeeper Lin finished speaking, he glanced at the number of medicinal herbs in the account book and his eyes almost popped out.
"Miss Ye, you need so many medicinal herbs, it will cost you a lot of money, almost one million taels!"
Ye Chutang had already estimated the price, which must be over one million taels.
Including the shipping cost for thousands of miles, it would cost at least 1.3 million taels.
This amount of money is unimaginable for most people, but Ye Chutang emptied out the pockets of several of the richest people in the capital, and his pockets were bulging.
"It's okay. The dowry my mother left behind is rich enough to rival a country. One million taels is nothing to me."
Her tone was calm, but Shopkeeper Lin's heart was moved.
Having said that, few people would sacrifice themselves for others.
He seemed to see the Buddha's light that saved all living beings in Ye Chutang.
"I am ashamed."
Apart from this, he really didn't know what to say.
"I am doing this for others as well as for myself. I will trouble Shopkeeper Lin from now on."
After Ye Chutang finished speaking, he returned to the Shangshu Mansion.
As soon as she reached the gate of the mansion, she saw Qi Yanzhou coming with a wild goose in his arms.
Qi Yanzhou was wearing a green brocade robe today, and his black hair was fixed with a white jade crown.
Tall bamboos were embroidered with silver thread on the hem of the garment, extending all the way to the front, sparkling in the sun.
The black belt with gold edges bound her slender waist, and the jade pendant swayed slightly as she walked.
Coming slowly towards the sunlight.
What should have been a very beautiful picture was ruined by the pair of geese screaming.
Ye Chutang smiled and said, "Azhou, you are quite punctual. Please come in."
Qi Yanzhou entered the Shangshu Mansion and went to the main hall.
While handing the wild goose to Ye Chutang, he quietly handed her a list.
I also gave her two good news.
"Kong Qingyuan and his son were stripped of their official positions, thrown into prison, and were also restricted from serving as officials in the imperial court for the next three generations."
It can be said that the Kong family is completely finished.
"Zhao Qingshu took all the blame. Earl Yongning offered to be stripped of his title and take his family away from the capital. The emperor agreed."
Ye Chutang frowned unhappily, "The emperor pardoned Zhao Simin's crime?"
Qi Yanzhou raised his hand to smooth out the wrinkles between Ye Chutang's brows.
"It was useless for the emperor to agree. I immediately submitted a memorial containing evidence of Zhao Simin using her status as a princess to oppress the people and beat up officials' wives."
"What is the result?"
"Zhao Simin and Zhao Qingshu were both sentenced to one year in prison. Zhao Mingxu and his family were exiled to Dingzhou, where they were given the title of 'County Earl' and were entitled to 30% of Dingzhou's taxes."
Qi Yanzhou knew that Ye Chutang was not satisfied with the result, so he explained.
"Zhao Mingxu is the emperor's brother. As long as he is not guilty of treason, the emperor will not take any harsh measures against him."
If Zhao Qingshu and Zhao Simin had not dealt with Ye Chutang and almost ruined the emperor's plan, the emperor would never have punished them.
After hearing this, Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows happily.
"If there is evidence of Zhao Mingxu's rebellion, is he finished?"
Qi Yanzhou nodded, "Of course."
The emperor cares about his throne the most, and he will kill anyone who wants to snatch it!
Of course, in order to demonstrate brotherhood, the emperor could not kill Zhao Mingxu, so he had to either imprison him or exile him.
After receiving a positive reply, Ye Chutang leaned closer to Qi Yanzhou and told him the secret of Prince An's Mansion in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"There is a secret room under the stables of Prince An's mansion. There are many weapons hidden at the bottom of the secret room. If we find a reason to dig them out, Zhao Mingxu will be finished."
Qi Yanzhou knew that the news must have been told to Ye Chutang by the "Ghost Thief".
He became more curious about their relationship, but did not ask further questions.
"Okay, I know what to do."
After saying that, Qi Yanzhou stood up and said goodbye.
Ye Chutang sent him to the door and happened to meet Ye Anling who was returning home.
Ye Anling came back alone, bringing two gifts, which looked very shabby.
She looked at the perfect couple in front of her and her eyes became red with jealousy.
"Meet King Chen."
Qi Yanzhou didn't even glance at Ye Anling, and gently instructed Ye Chutang.
"Rest more and don't be too tired. The Ministry of Rites will arrange everything."
Ye Chutang deliberately straightened Qi Yanzhou's collar in front of Ye Anling.
"Got it. Don't do everything yourself."
"I have to do it myself. I want to give you the best."
After Qi Yanzhou finished speaking, he left reluctantly.
After he left, Ye Anling glared at the complacent Ye Chutang.
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
"I've made it so obvious, do you still need to ask?"
"Evil woman! If King Chen knew your true face, he would definitely not marry you."
Ye Chutang chuckled, "What is my true self? Talented and beautiful? Famous? Rich enough to rival a country? Avenging my mother?"
At this point, she drew out the last syllable and said "Ouch".
"Kong Ru gave birth to you, raised you, spoiled you, and protected you. You didn't go to the mass grave to find her body and bury her, but ran back and forth empty-handed. You are such a filial daughter!"
The sanity that Ye Anling had tried so hard to maintain completely collapsed.
She threw the return gift she brought back at Ye Chutang, "Shut up!"
Ye Chutang raised his foot and kicked the return gift back, hitting Ye Anling's knee.
With a "thump", Ye Anling knelt on the ground in humiliation.
Ye Chutang took a step to the side.
"Madam, your return gift is too expensive. I cannot afford it."
After saying this, she walked happily into the Shangshu Mansion.
Ye Anling was almost fainted from anger and got angry at the palace maid who followed her.
"Are you dead? Help me up!"
The palace maid knew that Ye Anling was out of favor, so on the wedding night, she was used as a tool for Eunuch De to vent his anger and was tortured to death.
She looked at the embarrassed Ye Anling with a contemptuous tone.
"Ma'am, please don't embarrass yourself at the gate. There are many people watching us."
Ye Anling closed her eyes and stood up despite the pain.
She stared at the palace maid who had committed treason fiercely and swore in her heart.
"I will definitely climb to the highest place and trample all those who look down on me under my feet!"
Since Eunuch De is unreliable, she will change her target and become the emperor's woman.
She wanted to help the emperor deal with Eunuch De and get rid of the eunuchs' dictatorship.
