Xia Xiaoman was very satisfied with Gu Feiyan's shocked expression. Just as he was about to speak, Gu Feiyan asked first, "Eunuch Man, where did all these medicinal herbs come from? What do you want to do with it?"
Although Prince Jing didn't live in the imperial palace, he could use medicine ingredients from the Imperial Pharmacy just like the inner court. It was normal for the manor to hoard some commonly used medicinal ingredients, but since there were so many of them stocked up, what was he planned to do with it? According to Gu Feiyan's understanding, Prince Jing was in excellent health. He rarely gets sick and take medicine.
"These medicines are all purchased by our family. As for the others, you don't need to ask about them. You should just do a good inventory and check it."
What was inventory? Naturally, it was counting by comparing them to the existing list. Eunuch Man did not give the list but only give a scale which was clearly making things difficult for her. Even if there were not a hundred of them, there were at least ninety, and each of them might be subdivided into parts. If she knew nothing about them, she would be confused if she were to simply list out the ingredients one by one.
Xia Xiaoman was waiting for Gu Feiyan to give in, but Gu Feiyan said, "I don't need the scale, just give me a piece of paper and brush. Just give me three days of time for these ingredients. "
Eunuch Man was stunned. "What, what did you say?"
You don't even want a scale, and it only takes three days? What kind of joke was this little medicine girl is talking?
"I said, there's no need for the scale, just give me brush and paper and three days."
Gu Feiyan was serious. She strode inside and sized up the medicine cabinets one by one. Eunuch Man came up to her and asked seriously, "Are you sure?"
Gu Feiyan would be a fool if she did not realize that Eunuch Man was making things difficult for her. However, she didn't have the time to fight with Eunuch Man. She had to check every single herb here in the shortest amount of time possible!
One had to know that the real culprit who wanted to kill Cheng Yifei, was targeting for Prince Jing.
She had originally thought that all she needed to do was to control the medicinal ingredients that were sent over to the medicine house, but who knew that there were so many hidden medicines in Prince Jing's palace! Only the heavens knew if the real culprit had already made a move on him. She could ignore everything else for now, but she had to ensure the safety of these medicinal ingredients as soon as possible!
Eunuch Man knew that Gu Feiyan had saved Cheng Yifei, but he couldn't imagine how she was going to come up with a thorough inventory of these herbs within three days!
He chased after her and said in disbelief, "Little girl, you're just a newly promoted medicine girl. How good are you? Isn't that too brazen? "
The word "girl" obviously annoyed Gu Feiyan, so she coldly said, "Eunuch Man, you do not believe it? How about we make a bet? "
Betting?
Eunuch Man agreed without a second thought. "Let's have a bet then. What happens if you lose?"
Gu Feiyan seriously said, "If I lose, it's up to you. If you lose, I'll take full responsibility for all matters related to the medicines. You can't interfere with me and must help me unconditionally!"
Eunuch Man was very confident as he said, "Then, if you lose, your three months' worth of wages will all go to me. If I lose, I'll do as you say! "
Gu Feiyan was very serious, "It's a deal, if you go back on your word, you'll be a puppy!"
Eunuch Man scoffed, "It's a deal! If you dare go back on your word, this eunuch has many ways to deal with you!"
As soon as Eunuch Man left, Gu Feiyan immediately closed the door and started working!
In everyone's eyes, she was nothing more than a useless woman with no ability. Prince Jing definitely wouldn't hand over everything to her. In other words, there were many things that she couldn't control or guard against. Therefore, she could only use this opportunity to stir up trouble from Eunuch Man. Eunuch Man was equivalent to the head steward of Prince Jing's estate. He could very well rule on behalf of Prince Jing.
This bet could also be said to be an opportunity for her to display her medical skills to Eunuch Man. She had to win, and she had to win!
In the past ten years, apart from Master Bai Yi, all she had in her life were medicinal ingredients. After taking a glance at the ingredients, she had a rough idea of how much they should be. She weighed them with her hand and was sure of the exact amount. Even without the help of the small Cauldron, three days were more than sufficient.
Gu Feiyan was not in a hurry to check the herbs. She strolled around the medicine cabinet and noted down the names of the herbs. After walking around, she found that a large portion of these medicinal herbs were used to dispel cold.
Eunuch Man peeked at the door for a while, but was unable to find anything, so he quickly left. He had just reached the gate when he ran into Mang Zhong. He immediately grinned and excitedly rushed over to ask, "Brother Zhong, where is His Highness? Is he back? "
This voice, this smile, it was no longer an old and arrogant, strange aura. It was no different from a teenager. Anyone who didn't know this would not be able to tell that he was a eunuch. The people outside did not know, but everyone in Prince Jing's estate knew that Eunuch Man was actually not that scary. He was just a child!
Mang Zhong laughed and gave him a thumbs up, "Xiaoman, you did it! You actually dared to snatch someone away from Princess Huaining! Good job! "
Mang Zhong immediately whispered about what had happened to Xia Xiaoman, especially that secret prescription letter. When Xia Xiaoman heard it, he was utterly shocked.
"What? She dares to poison His Highness? And she even kicked His Highness? "
"Shh! Keep your voice down. His Highness didn't mention anything being kicked. I was the one who saw the footprints on His Highness! "
"What, someone wants to murder His Highness!"
"Shh, lower your voice!"
"Shh..."
Mang Zhong recalled the scene where His Highness watched Gu Feiyan absent-mindedly. He looked around and confirmed that there was no one around, then he started to gossip with Xia Xiaoman in a low voice. Mang Zhong firmly believed that His Highness was different to Gu Feiyan, but Xia Xiaoman firmly refused to believe it.
However, Jun Jiuchen was sitting on the high wall next to them, facing Gu Feiyan’s residence, with his back to them. He seemed to have returned not long ago, and the silver-white mask on his face was still on.
He'd definitely heard the discussions of his two subordinates, but no one knew what he was thinking. He looked at the Gu Feiyan’s busy figure in the Medicine Pavilion, and his eyes that were as black as the night sky were unfathomable.
Xia Xiaoman and Mang Zhong shared all that they could talk about and all that they could guess before leaving. After they left, Jun Jiuchen's body flipped a few times, and he flew over to the side of the window of the Medicine Pavilion. He saw that inside the window, Gu Feiyan had picked two medicinal herbs and mashed it up.
Jun Jiuchen didn't know what she was going to do, so he was somewhat puzzled.
Not long after, Gu Feiyan smeared the medicinal paste on her palm. Just smearing it once, her eyebrows knitted together, as if it was very painful.
"Injured?"
Jun Jiuchen murmured, his cold eyebrows unconsciously knitted together. He didn't know …
