Chapter 200: Slap in the face
Twenty boxes of gold and silver were placed at the gate of King Ye's Mansion, blinding everyone's eyes.
Ji Yuntang was also shocked by the generosity of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She knew that Prime Minister Hua would send someone to pay her the medical fees, but she didn't expect that the other party would give her tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver at once.
This is not giving money, it's clearly helping her slap someone in the face.
Ji Yuntang only had one feeling in his heart at this moment: "Awesome!"
She smiled and said, "Butler He has taken the trouble to come here in person. Please express your gratitude to the Prime Minister, his wife, and Xu Shaoqing on my behalf. They are so polite."
Butler He was flattered and waved his hand, saying, "Princess Ye, please don't say that. The one who should say thank you is our Prime Minister. If you hadn't saved our young lady and young master, they would be in great danger now."
"You saved our young lady's life, so you will be the benefactor of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the future. If Princess Ye doesn't mind, please accept this money, so that I can report back to our Prime Minister's wife."
"Then this princess will respectfully obey your command."
After expressing his gratitude, Ji Yuntang generously accepted the silver sent by Butler He.
Before leaving, Butler He suddenly thought of something and turned back. He deliberately said in front of everyone present: "By the way, Princess Ye, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
"Our son-in-law, Xu Shaoqing, has already gone to the palace to report the murder of Imperial Doctor Zhu to the Emperor. He may be in the Imperial Study now. Before he left, he specifically said in front of the Prime Minister that Imperial Doctor Zhu's case had nothing to do with Princess Ye, and that someone else killed him. The Dali Temple has also collected all the evidence."
"If someone spreads rumors again, saying that Princess Ye killed someone, then my Prime Minister and son-in-law will definitely hold the rumormongers and rumor-spreaders accountable. Please watch your mouths and don't say anything you shouldn't, so as not to cause trouble."
Ji Huaiche: "..."
Ji Huaiche: "!!!"
He inexplicably felt that Butler He's words were meant for him to hear.
The other party clearly wanted to tell him that Ji Yuntang would have the support of the Prime Minister's Office in the future, and if they dared to spread malicious rumors about her again, they had to consider their own weight.
Ji Huaiche was so angry that he was about to die. He didn't expect that not only did he fail to destroy Ji Yuntang's reputation, but he also let her find such a powerful helper in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
If the Night King really recovers in the future, the situation of Dongchen Kingdom may change completely.
With Butler He stepping forward, the situation was completely turned around, and the people turned all their attention to Ji Huaiche.
They looked at him with complicated eyes, containing a bit of contempt and ridicule.
Those who had just cursed Ji Yuntang as a vicious snake now turned around and started cursing Ji Huaiche.
"Prince Ji is so selfish and hypocritical. As the Right Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, you deliberately spread false news, saying that Doctor Zhu was killed by Princess Ye, and induced us to insult Princess Ye. What on earth are you thinking?"
"Yes, he is Princess Ye's biological elder brother, but he doesn't want Princess Ye to have an easy life. I think Prince Ji clearly wants to kill Princess Ye. How could there be such a vicious brother in the world? It's disgusting!"
"Princess Ye didn't kill anyone. She helped Xu Shaoqing investigate the case and saved his wife and children. Princess Ye is really a good person. If anyone dares to say bad things about her again, I will help her scold them back."
"..."
Listening to all kinds of sarcastic and mocking words around him, Ji Huaiche felt his anger rising in his heart, and he was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
How did things become like this?
Obviously, Ji Yuntang should be the one being scolded, why did it become him now?
Ji Huaiche endured it again and again, but finally walked away with a dark face and dejected.
Ji Yuntang sneered as he looked at the other person's fleeing back.
Ji Huaiche, ah Ji Huaiche, you did so many bad things to the original owner, and now you can't bear this little blow?
No one can escape the debt owed by the Yongning Marquisate to her!
Ji Yuntang turned around and went back to Prince Ye’s Mansion.
She asked Chen Hu to move all twenty boxes of gold and silver into the small warehouse in Xiyuan, and then when no one was paying attention, she quickly transferred all the gold and silver in the boxes to her own space and locked the boxes.
After doing all this, Ji Yuntang locked the warehouse door and walked out.
Luo Junhe had already learned from Chen Hu what happened today. He pursed his lips tightly and hated his own powerlessness once again.
Although his body had recovered a lot, his legs were still unable to walk. Anything that happened in the mansion or any trouble that occurred had to be solved by Ji Yuntang himself.
While Luo Junhe felt sorry for Ji Yuntang, he also felt a strong sense of self-blame.
It was not until Ji Yuntang pushed the door and walked in that Luo Junhe turned his head with red eyes and looked at her in shame.
"Ah Tang, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I'm a burden to you. I'm really useless."
Ji Yuntang felt a pain in his heart, and he stepped forward, grabbed Luo Junhe's hand, and held him in his arms.
"Ah He, you don't have to blame yourself. This has nothing to do with you. The person that Yongning Marquis' Mansion doesn't like is me, and the person they want to kill is also me. The conflicts and grudges between them and me are already in a state that cannot be reconciled."
"Don't worry, I will be very careful and won't let them catch any tricks."
Ji Yuntang's embrace made Luo Junhe feel at ease. He opened his mouth and asked, "Atang, when can I stand up again?"
He couldn't wait to fight alongside Ji Yuntang.
Now, his face, eyes, body and figure have almost recovered.
My legs and lower body still have no feeling.
Ji Yuntang gently placed his hand on his leg and said, "It's almost there. Let's do a few more acupuncture treatments and your legs will soon be able to feel better."
These are words of comfort.
Because Luo Junhe's legs were the most seriously injured. Not only were his bones necrotic, but his legs were also poisoned.
Ji Yuntang gave him acupuncture every three days, but only partially removed the toxins from his legs.
If he wanted to stand up completely, acupuncture alone would obviously not be enough, and he had to find another medicinal herb.
Ji Yuntang has also been worried about this matter during this period.
Dragon scale grass is extremely rare. As far as she knows, this medicine grows in the southernmost extremely sunny place and there is no such thing in Dongchen Kingdom.
If you want to find it, you have to expand the scope and look for it in the other three countries.
Ji Yuntang was obviously unable to get away.
She thought about it and decided to tell Luo Junhe about the dragon scale grass.
"If you want to make the necrotic bones grow back, acupuncture alone is not enough. You must go to the extremely sunny place to find the dragon scale grass."
After she finished speaking, she encouraged him with a smile.
"Ahe, what you need to do now is to face life positively. I will be by your side no matter what, and we will find the dragon scale grass sooner or later."
