Chapter 166

Concubine Liu looked extremely bad, how could she not hear the hidden meaning of Nanny's words.

"Do you mean that I am deliberately making things difficult for Xu Yuan?"

Nanny still answered calmly, "Your Highness, you are too kind."

"If your Highness has nothing else to do, please allow me to escort Miss Xu out of the palace."

Nanny made a gesture of invitation to Xu Yuan.

Although Concubine Liu was angry, she was somewhat helpless.

"Go and find out what Xu Yuan's purpose is in entering the palace this time."

Concubine Liu said viciously, with great unwillingness in her eyes.

Such a woman who knows medicine and has cured the old illness of the empress dowager, if she chooses to side with the queen, it is very likely to become a hidden danger for her.

"Yes."

When they arrived at the palace gate and were about to get on the carriage, Nanny said to Xu Yuan, "Miss Xu, I will escort you here."

"As for the Concubine, Miss Xu does not have to worry, the queen is there for everything."

Xu Yuan nodded, grateful for Nanny's intervention.

If this person had not appeared in time, it would indeed be a bit troublesome to face the Imperial Concubine's words.

"Thank you, Madam."

Xu Yuan said.

"Miss Xu is too polite. These are just what I should do."

Madam had a smile on her face. She didn't expect the person in front of her to be so humble in attitude.

After getting on the carriage, Xu Yuan did not rush back to the Duke's Mansion but went to the shop he bought.

In order not to attract attention, Xu Yuan deliberately took Cui Liu to enter through the back door.

As soon as he entered the shop, the movement aroused Wang Er's vigilance.

"Who, who is there?"

Wang Er immediately picked up his weapon and went towards the back door.

When he saw the person coming, he felt a little relieved. Wang Er smiled and walked towards Xu Yuan.

"Miss, it turned out to be you."

"I have changed some of the arrangements according to your instructions. Do you think you are satisfied?"

Wang Er said and was about to take Xu Yuan there.

Xu Yuan followed Wang Er forward. When she saw those arrangements, her eyes lit up. These were exactly what she wanted.

"Thank you for your hard work."

After reading all this, Xu Yuan said to Wang Er, and then winked at Cui Liu.

Cui Liu understood the moment Xu Yuan signaled, and took out the silver note she carried with her from her bosom and handed it to Wang Er.

"This is the reward, please accept it."

Wang Er was shocked when he saw the reward suddenly handed over. He waved his hand and said to Xu Yuan, "Miss, these are what I should do, and I didn't help much."

"You don't need these rewards."

Xu Yuan curled her lips, "Since you have done something, you should be paid, accept it."

She would not let anyone do meaningless things.

After Xu Yuan's answer, Wang Er reached out to take it, and looked at Xu Yuan with gratitude.

"Miss, if you need me for anything in the future, just tell me, I will be at your service."

Xu Yuan said with a smile, "How are the preparations for the medicinal materials?"

"I have found several drug dealers in Beijing, and we have already agreed on the price of the medicinal materials."

Wang Er seemed to think of something when he said this, and then said, "Miss, please wait, I will record the prices and find them for you now."

After that, Wang Er turned and left. Not long after, Wang Er returned and handed the account book in his hand to Xu Yuan.

"Miss, please take a look."

"Okay."

Xu Yuan took the account book, read the contents on it and nodded slightly, obviously very satisfied with it.

"Miss, the one at the front is what I think is the most suitable. There are many options. Please see which one is better."

"Just choose the first one."

Xu Yuan replied.

"Wang Er, I wonder what your plans are after this?"

Xu Yuan thought about what Wang Er had done during this period of time, especially that he must have put in a lot of effort to come up with so many plans, and he was also doing things in a more appropriate way.

"Miss, what do you mean?" Wang Er looked at Xu Yuan, obviously with some doubts.

"I plan to open this shop as a combination of a clinic and a pharmacy, which can provide both medical treatment and medicine. We are still short of a shopkeeper."

"I don't know if you are willing to pay twenty taels of silver per month."

"Two... twenty taels?" Wang Er opened his eyes wide, full of disbelief. You know, he only paid five to ten taels before, and sometimes even nothing.

The lady in front of him was willing to pay twenty taels!

Wang Er was so excited that he suddenly wanted to cry.

"Wang Er, what's wrong with you?" Cui Liu saw Wang Er like this and couldn't help but feel strange. Why did this man's eyes turn red for no reason?

Xu Yuan was looking at other places to see if he should buy some things. When he heard Cui Liu's words, his eyes fell on Wang Er again.

"Wang Er, if you don't want to, or if you think there is something wrong, just let me know."

She would give the greatest support to those who can be used.

Wang Er hurriedly shook his head, with an excitement in his tone that could not be concealed.

"I am willing, young lady. These twenty taels are too much for me."

"Thank you, young lady."

"I am offering you silver in exchange for your labor. It is not without conditions. As long as you can do your best, the silver will be increased appropriately in the future."

"Just one thing, if you agree to this, you must not be indecisive. If I find out that you have done anything out of line, I will never forgive you."

"I like to tell the good and bad of things in advance. You still have to think clearly."

After hearing what Xu Yuan said, Wang Er's face did not waver at all. He replied to Xu Yuan with a more determined look, "Young lady, don't worry, I am not the kind of person who will betray others. Since I have agreed, I will definitely take responsibility to the end." "

Okay, then you should prepare the medicinal materials according to the first plan. I may not come here often during this period. If you need anything, you can come to the Duke's Mansion to find me."

"The Duke's Mansion..." Wang Er was even more incredible.

"Miss, are you Miss Xu?"

"Yes."

Xu Yuan replied.

"I greet Miss Xu."

Wang Er's tone became more respectful.

"No need to do that. You just need to do what you should do. If you need anything or encounter any difficulties, just come to me. I will solve it as soon as possible. If it is really difficult, I will also find a way."

Xu Yuan's words were like a reassurance to Wang Er.

She took Cui Liu to stay in the shop for a while to make sure there was no problem, and then Xu Yuan returned home.

"Miss, since Wang Er is in charge of the shop, is there anything I can do?"

Cui Liu looked at Xu Yuan, full of expectations.

She also wanted to do something within her ability for her young lady.

"Do you want to help in the shop too?"

Xu Yuan asked.

"I just want to share the burden for you while protecting you."

"That's good enough."

Xu Yuan smiled. She understood Cui Liu's thoughts.

"But if you really want to help, you can start by identifying the medicinal materials."

"Miss, can I really do that?" Cui Liu was a little surprised by Xu Yuan's answer.
