Chapter 44: The Pure Snow Lotus Is Actually a Fake
Next, there was a stench.
Even the palace guards guarding the outside smelled the smell.
However, the person in the toilet was the prince and their master after all. They did not dare to say anything. They could only endure the stench, pretend that nothing had happened, and continue to stand upright.
After a while, King Anchuan came out of the toilet. As soon as he entered the room, before he sat down to continue his breakthrough practice, he felt another severe pain in his stomach.
He ran out quickly again, and there was another stench.
This time, when King Yasukawa came out of the toilet, before he could enter the room, he felt severe stomach pain again and turned back...
After going back and forth like this for more than a dozen times, when King Yasukawa arrived at the back, he was exhausted and his legs began to weaken.
But the pain in my stomach was still severe, and the pain was getting worse.
"Ah, it hurts so much!" King Anchuan could no longer hold on and fell to the ground, shouting.
The palace people hurriedly stepped forward, helped him up and put him on the bed: "My lord, are you okay?"
"Nonsense, are you blind? I'm almost dying of discomfort, and you ask me if I'm okay? Go find the imperial doctor!" The prince's stomach was in unbearable pain. He had nowhere to vent his anger, so he could only vent his anger on the palace people.
on the body.
The palace man was scolded for no reason, but he did not dare to hesitate and immediately ran to the palace to ask for the imperial doctor.
After waiting for nearly an hour, the imperial doctor finally came. After making a diagnosis, the imperial doctor told Prince Anchuan that the prince had eaten something unclean and had become like this.
"Unclean things?" Prince Anchuan was confused. "When did I eat unclean things? Today I ate pure snow lotus and nothing else."
"Pure Snow Lotus?" the imperial doctor was curious.
"Yes, that pure snow lotus not only looks ugly, but also tastes terrible. After I ate that, I had no appetite for anything else." Prince Anchuan complained angrily.
The imperial doctor seemed to understand something at this moment: "My lord, are you sure that what you are eating is the real pure snow lotus? The real pure snow lotus is shaped like white snow, crystal clear, exquisite in appearance, and the taste is the most beautiful in the world. As you described,
It shouldn’t be Snow Lotus.”
"What?!" King Anchuan couldn't believe his ears!
"Jiang Ruoyun, how dare you use fake pure snow lotus to deceive this king, I will kill you little bitch!" King Anchuan shouted angrily.
After he finished shouting, he felt severe pain in his stomach again. He could only curl up and wailed in pain: "Ouch, it hurts so much. Doctor, hurry up and save me. I am in pain."
The imperial doctor did not dare to hesitate and immediately prescribed him a tonic to relieve pain and diarrhea. He also ordered the palace attendants to boil the medicine on time and give it to the prince to take.
…
The next day.
Jiang Ruoyun counted the days and was immersed in happiness.
She felt that it was time for the prince to summon her and tell her the emperor's will to get married on what day.
"Mother, why hasn't the prince come to see me yet? Do you think the emperor's decree of marriage will come directly to our Jiang Mansion?" Jiang Ruoyun couldn't help but fantasize.
Mrs. Jiang also began to dream: "If the emperor personally granted the marriage, it would be a supreme honor. Then he would naturally come to our Jiang Mansion to read out the decree."
"But why hasn't the emperor's decree come yet? There's been no movement from the prince's side?" Jiang Ruoyun asked eagerly.
"You are just too impatient. This matter is a complicated process and has to be approved at all levels before the decree can be issued. Let's just wait quietly." Mrs. Jiang said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, I listen to you, mother, let's wait patiently. Anyway, we have been waiting for five years, and it is not enough for these few days."
Jiang Ruoyun felt much calmer in an instant as she listened to Mrs. Jiang's comfort.
…
Jiang Wantong has been extremely busy these days.
Since she came to the Imperial City, she has transferred all the properties under her name in the Imperial City.
Moreover, Jiang Wantong gave different suggestions based on the different characteristics of different shops.
Sure enough, within a few days, each shop had achieved a significant increase in profit, and Jiang Wantong was naturally in a good mood.
On this day, after settling her children, she went out again and wandered around several shops.
Currently, the Longyin Pharmacy, several restaurants, and several rouge and gouache shops in the imperial city are all owned by Jiang Wantong.
So after she went out, she first went to the drug store, then to the restaurant, and finally to the rouge and gouache shop.
"Ms. Jiang, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time." As soon as he entered the door, the girl Xiao Xi in the store took Jiang Wantong's hand and shouted excitedly.
As soon as Xiao Xi finished speaking, the female shopkeeper of Rouge Shop gave her a cold look:
"Xiao Xi, have you finished your work? How could you be so reckless in front of Miss Jiang? You don't understand any rules."
Xiao Xi's originally excited eyes dimmed instantly, her head hung low, and she quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, Miss Jiang."
"Get out of here!" the female shopkeeper glared at her again and scolded her sternly.
Xiao Xi timidly blessed herself, and then respectfully stepped away.
"Wait a minute." Jiang Wantong called to Xiao Xi, "Xiao Xi, what did you want to say just now?"
The female shopkeeper hurriedly took the lead and explained to Jiang Wantong: "Miss Jiang, this girl Xiao Xi has always been carefree and careless. What can happen to her? She just wants to see you happy."
"Did I ask you?" Jiang Wantong's eyes were cold. Her tone was not loud, but she had an air of calmness and authority.
The female shopkeeper didn't dare to speak anymore. She lowered her head and stood there quietly and timidly.
Xiao Xi's eyes flashed with light again, and she looked at Jiang Yuan with gratitude:
"Ms. Jiang, I have developed a new rouge in the past few days. It is very delicate when applied on the face. Even if some ladies have dark skin, after applying this, they can become very white and very natural. So delicate, it’s as if it’s not applied at all.”
"Really?" Jiang Wantong became happy when she heard this.
You must know that ancient rouge and gouache were actually very rudimentary. Although the effect after makeup was okay, it was limited to girls with good appearance and skin.
For example, for people with naturally dull skin, if they apply less rouge, it will look like they are not applied at all. If they apply too much rouge, it will look thick and unnatural, and the effect will be counterproductive.
When Jiang Wantong just traveled through time, she was still thinking, why didn't the rouge here have a delicate texture and excellent coverage of dullness?
But now, the little female worker in my shop has actually developed it!
"Miss Jiang, it's absolutely true, otherwise I'll give it a try for you." Xiao Xi became even more excited. As she spoke, she took out her newly developed rouge and smeared it on her face.
Xiao Xi originally had a dull complexion, but after she applied this rouge, she instantly became several shades whiter.
And it's very natural, there's no trace of rouge at all.
