The Prince Jing’s Palace was located to the east of the imperial capital and was quite a distance away from the imperial palace.

Although the Prince Jing’s Palace was only occupied by one person, it was not small. It was majestic, imposing, and elegant, with construction specifications only bestowed upon the imperial palace.

The entire mansion was divided into three parts: the front courtyard, the main courtyard, and the backyard. The front courtyard was a place for meeting guests and office works. The main courtyard was where the bedroom halls were located. It has a side hall to the left and to the right. Behind the side halls were a few separate small courtyards. The backyard was a large garden.

Gu Feiyan followed Eunuch Man through the side door, across the front yard, and walked along the corridor.

Eunuch Man explained as he walked, "In front of us is the main courtyard, that is where His Highness rests, if there is nothing to do you are not allowed to enter, and there is also the back garden that you absolutely cannot go to! You must remember this. "

"Understood."

Gu Feiyan thought that Prince Jing would be waiting for them in the main courtyard. The deeper she went into the house, the more nervous she became. Unexpectedly, Eunuch Man did not bring her into the main courtyard. Instead, he brought her along a small path on the right and arrived at a small courtyard called Mingyue Residence.

"Medicine Girl Gu, from now on, you will live here. As for the medicinal herbs that will be sent to the prince's palace, the prescription will be yours to handle. You better be careful. If something bad happens, haha, not to mention you, even the nine clans of the Gu family will suffer!"

As soon as Eunuch Man finished speaking and was about to leave, Gu Feiyan asked in a hurry, "Eunuch Man, do I not need to pay my respects to His Highness Prince Jing?"

Eunuch Man avoided her gaze and said snappily, "Whether His Highness want to see you or not is up to him. What are you anxious about?"

Gu Feiyan felt that something was wrong.

How come Eunuch Man was not in a hurry now when he made it sound so urgent at the Imperial Pharmacy before? Moreover, her identity was special, so Eunuch Man should have immediately reported it to His Highness Prince Jing.

Gu Feiyan asked seriously, "His Highness Price Jing … … is not in the palace? "

Eunuch Man’s young and mature face was full of arrogance, but in reality, his heart was on the verge of collapse.

A day ago, he had received a secret pigeon letter from Prince Jing. The secret message had only contained one order, which was to go to the justice courts and snatch people from Princess Huaining.

He really didn't know what kind of person he was going to snatch. The moment he found out that it was Gu Feiyan, he was shocked.

Gu Feiyan had a special identity, and rumors had been flying everywhere recently. Prince Jing had to have a good reason to bring her into his household. Otherwise, it will lead to some gossip and the Qi and Cheng family would be suspicious, which will cause a lot of trouble!

He weighed the pros and cons of every aspect and almost cracked his brains before thinking of this divine reading method from the Daci Temple. He was still glad that there was no one in the Imperial Pharmacy who had been born on the same day of the same month in the same year as Gu Feiyan. Otherwise, he didn't know how to continue.

He said in the Imperial Pharmacy that it was an emergency but it was just a bluff. It had been a few days since he last saw His Highness Prince Jing, so he didn't know where he was right now. How to take Gu Feiyan to see him?

Under Gu Feiyan's suspicious scrutiny, Xia Xiaoman, whose heart was about to collapse, forcefully held onto his mature youth, looking calm and composed.

While playing with his fingernails, he asked Gu Feiyan, "How can you inquire about His Highness' whereabouts? We only picked you to come., Does His Highness has any other choice? What else do you see? What is the choice? Will His Highness be happy to see you? His Highness is not happy, how can we take it easy? "

Gu Feiyan's mind was filled with the secret letter of the prescription, and upon hearing Eunuch Man's words, she remembered that she was the only one who could do it. She was rather disappointed, but she still nodded, "That's true …"

"Hmph, we'll just report it ourselves. You, you should just obediently wait here!"

Xia Xiaoman wanted to slip away, but Gu Feiyan called out to him again, "Eunuch Man, please wait a moment."

The more guilty Xia Xiaoman felt, the more ferocious he got, "You little girl, why do you have so many problems? Our family has told you that you came to Prince Jing's mansion as a servant, and that you should listen more and ask less. Do you still understand this logic? I'm not afraid to tell you, if His Highness isn't happy, forget about three months, even if you stay for three years, you can forget about appearing in front of His Highness! "

Gu Feiyan was disappointed, but she didn't hesitate when it came to proper business. She seriously said, "Eunuch Man, I don't have to meet His Highness Prince Jing, but there are two things I have to explain to you right now!"

Eunuch Man inwardly heaved a sigh of relief, but he was in no hurry to slip away. He slowly said, "Which two things? Let’s listen to them."

He was about to teach her a lesson when Gu Feiyan interrupted him.

Her expression was even more serious than before. "Second, the medicine is about life. Before I can officially take over the duties of the medicines, I must make some as soon as possible. Firstly, I want to make sure that all the existing medicinal ingredients in the prince's palace are safe. Secondly, I want to know the source of the medicinal ingredients in the prince's palace. And thirdly, I want to find out the physical condition of everyone here; from the servants up to His Highness Duke Jing, to make sure that all the medicinal ingredients needed for urgent use are complete and adequate. Eunuch Man, I'll have to trouble you to make the arrangements for these matters as soon as possible. "

Gu Feiyan thought, with her identity, even if the truth were to be revealed, the Prince Jing might not necessarily believe it. Rather than spend all her time dropping hint to His Highness to be vigilant, she might as well just be vigilant. In any case, with her current identity, she could firmly control the entire palace, especially the medication of His Highness was firmly in her hands..

Seeing Gu Feiyan's serious expression, the words that were in Eunuch Man's mouth were somehow swallowed back down. He coughed a few times and said, "These things. Our family has already thought of this and made the arrangements. You don't have to be impatient! Just rest for now!"

Gu Feiyan immediately asked, "Since it's already been arranged, let the person in charge come over to explain. I want to start work immediately! "

She didn't deliberately make things difficult for Eunuch Man, but she wasn't sure if the murderer had already made a move. Since she had come, she had to get to the bottom of the matter regarding the medicines in the prince's palace as soon as possible.

Xia Xiaoman still didn't know about the secret letter of the prescription, so he thought that Gu Feiyan was purposefully trying to tear him down. He was so angry, he said coldly to Gu Feiyan." "Since you're so eager to work, come with me!"

Gu Feiyan followed without hesitation.

The moment the door was opened, a strong smell of medicinal herbs greeted them. What entered their eyes was a large collection of medicine cabinets, each with countless small drawers filled to the brim, making it impossible to count the quantity.

Gu Feiyan was frightened. Prince Jing's residence actually had a Medicine Pavilion? There were too many of these herbs. Wasn't this enough to open a small pharmacy?! Why did the Prince Jing hide so many medicines?
