"Your Majesty, these were just delivered last night, they are very fresh."
In the Shang Pharmacy, the manager Sun Hong was pointing at the baskets of medicinal herbs and briefly introducing them to the emperor.
"The wild ginseng, red ganoderma, and gastrodia elata are all top-notch goods, and the Qishan snow lotus is the first harvest this year."
As he spoke, Sun Hong lifted the black blackout cloth covering the basket.
Fresh and vibrant medicinal herbs lie quietly in the moss-covered basket.
The emperor glanced around calmly, his face expressionless.
Su Qiqi in his arms was extremely excited.
Ahhh! Medicinal herbs! I love them!
[Ganoderma lucidum, Gastrodia elata, wild ginseng, all come into my arms! ]
If I put all these fresh herbs into my portable space, I'll never have to worry about running out of herbs!
"But, isn't it a bad idea for me to just take the herbs away like this? If the herbs run low, the people in charge of counting and guarding them will definitely suffer."
【Ah, my heart is itching! 】
As she thought about it, Su Qiqi fell into deep thought again.
The little eyes rolled around, and there seemed to be a struggle in the look.
The emperor chuckled, feeling very pleased: Although this little girl is a money-grubber, she is thoughtful and kind. She is truly worthy of being his adopted daughter!
The emperor held Su Qiqi in his arms, walked to the chair and sat down, then looked up at Sun Hong and said, "Bring out the record book of medicinal materials for me to see."
Sun Hong was stunned for a moment.
Didn't the Emperor come here specifically to look at fresh medicinal herbs? Why did he want to look at the record book again?
Although he was confused, it was not his place as a servant to interfere in his master's affairs.
So Sun Hong responded and ran to find the record book.
There were also several minor officials in the room who were responsible for managing the medicinal materials.
The emperor said impatiently, "You all should go and do your own things. I'm just taking a look. Don't bother me."
"I will take my leave."
The officials retreated.
Finally, there were no outsiders in the room.
The emperor cleared his throat, looked at Zhao Xu beside him, and asked, "Have these medicinal herbs been counted?"
"No. Some of these herbs are too small, and some have damaged skins. I'll re-count them after I sort out the defective ones."
Zhao Xu replied without missing a word, following the emperor's previous instructions.
Su Qiqi was angry:
[How can such a good thing be defective? You are simply wasting it!]
[I don't mind, can you give me the herb with the small head? ]
[Then again, since there's no inventory or record, then it shouldn't matter if I secretly take a little, right?]
The emperor finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Little one, feel free to take it. I brought you here specifically to make sure you get what you want!
Soon, Sun Hong brought the notebook and then left obediently.
The emperor handed Su Qiqi to Zhao Xu and said, "Qiqi seems to be very interested in medicinal herbs. Take her to see them and let her touch them so she can get to know them."
After saying that, he sat on the armchair beside him and slowly flipped through the notebook.
"ha?"
Zhao Xu was completely bewildered. The little princess was just a baby. Teaching her to recognize medicinal herbs...could she know them?
"Do as you are told." The emperor gave the order in a cold voice without further explanation.
"Yes." Zhao Xu had no choice but to hold Su Qiqi and squat in front of the baskets.
"Princess, look! This is the Tianshan Snow Lotus, a very rare plant. It's said to warm the kidneys and strengthen yang, warm the meridians and dispel cold, and remove wind and dampness. The one next to it is wild ginseng, which nourishes qi and replenishes blood. And this..."
At this moment, Su Qiqi was overjoyed: "Snow lotus? They're still in bud, good quality! These two small ones are mine! You're all going to throw them away anyway, so why not take them?"
[Gastrodia elata? Calms wind and dampness, nourishes blood and dispels cold. Tyrant often suffers from headaches, and this will definitely come in handy. Three of these, please!]
[Wild ginseng? It replenishes Qi and blood, promotes salivation and calms the mind. Two for me!]
[Sanqi? I don't have this thing in my pocket space yet. Give me some!]
Su Qiqi started the mopping-up mode.
Unconsciously, there were fewer herbs in the basket, but Su Qiqi's personal space was planted with a large area of herbs.
After taking a look at the things in the space, Su Qiqi raised the corner of her mouth.
[This lush greenery makes me feel relaxed just looking at it! ]
【Having money and medicinal materials is the foundation of a good life! 】
[When I have the chance, I'll get another set of silver needles and keep them in my pocket for emergencies!]
Everything is ready. In a few years, I can travel around the world doing good deeds! Ahahahahaha!
Maybe she was too happy, she actually laughed wildly like in TV dramas.
That deliberate and exaggerated smile made the emperor frown.
Little guy, there is so much drama.
After a while, Su Qiqi had finished the sweep and began to sway her head and hum a little tune.
The emperor stood up and said, "Zhao Xu, I remember the plum blossoms outside the Imperial Hospital were very beautiful. Take the princess and have a look, and ask the people outside to come in."
"yes."
Zhao Xu didn't dare to ask any more questions and just carried Su Qiqi out the door.
The emperor threw the record book on the table, picked up a basket from the side, picked some high-quality medicinal herbs and put them in the basket.
"emperor."
Sun Hong and several managers walked in, hunched over, waiting for instructions.
The emperor said, "Send the herbs in this small basket to Shouning Palace. I've also taken some of the fresh herbs. Re-count and record immediately to avoid any mistakes."
"Yes." Sun Hong responded and winked at the person behind him.
Someone came forward with a basket and took it to Shouning Palace.
