Chapter 139 Borrowing Medicinal Materials
Not long after Yan Yu left, Jiang Li also got up and went to the Prince's Mansion.
The guards around Chu Changxun were a little surprised when they saw Jiang Li.
Seeing that she was anxious, he went to inform Chu Changxu without delay.
Soon, the girl saw a man in a navy blue robe walking hurriedly towards her.
"Princess? It's so late, is there something urgent?"
The man frowned and walked to Jiang Li in two steps.
The girl's white and tender hands were folded on her lower abdomen, and her expression was rare and urgent.
"Prince, may I borrow some herbs from you? I'll return them to you soon!"
Chu Changxun became even more worried when he heard this. Borrowing medicinal herbs... could something have happened again... ?
"Princess, please come in first. It's cold outside. Don't catch a cold."
"it is good."
Chu Changxun took the person directly to his own pharmacy. There was a black lacquered wooden cabinet that was as high as an entire wall, and countless small drawers were carefully labeled with the names of medicinal materials.
There is a slightly smaller cabinet next to it, but it is not that small. It is just compared with the cabinet next to it.
Jiang Li was a little surprised. Even though she knew that Chu Changxun had collected many precious medicinal herbs, she didn't expect there were so many.
If she guessed correctly, this locked cabinet, which was half her height, should be filled with rare medicinal herbs.
"Have some tea to warm yourself up."
Jiang Li took the teacup handed to her by Chu Changxun and thanked him obediently.
She came in such a hurry that she didn't even wear a windproof cloak. At this moment, not only were her snow-white cheeks red from the cold, but even the tip of her nose was pink.
Chu Changxuan sat opposite her, staring at the girl holding the teacup and sipping tea in small sips, and he was unconsciously stunned.
She was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, and also the most interesting woman he had ever seen, always bringing him unexpected surprises.
If... he had met her earlier, wouldn't he have to hide his feelings for her under the guise of friendship...
Jiang Li was almost warm. She put down her teacup and thought about what she had come here for today.
"Sir, I came here today to ask if you have these medicinal herbs."
The man calmly suppressed the emotions in his eyes, and curled his thin lips slightly, motioning her to continue.
Jiang Li unfolded her prescription and handed it over, pointing to the last few medicine names with her fair fingertips, her voice soft.
"I need some Chalcedony Ganoderma, Black Jade Ginseng, and..."
The man read the prescription from beginning to end, and his expression suddenly became serious and heavy.
"The herbs used in this prescription, Princess, are extremely potent. What kind of illness would require so many potent medicines?"
Chu Changxuan frowned. These precious herbs could keep a dying person alive, but if the dosage was not controlled properly and the patient could not bear it, they would collide in the body and cause the patient to die on the spot.
Jiang Li pursed her lips, knowing his worry.
Jiang Li had already asked for help, and she didn't want to hide it from him, so she told Chu Changxu what Yan Yu had told her.
Sure enough, the man's face darkened instantly.
"You want to go to the battlefield?! No!"
Jiang Li's pupils dilated and her mouth opened wide in surprise.
She didn't tell him that she was going to the battlefield, so how did he know?
Chu Changxuan gave her a displeased look. Did she need to say this?
The dosage of this medicinal ingredient is extremely difficult to control. Since she has already written this prescription, how could she possibly trust other imperial doctors to prepare the medicine?
"The epidemic is highly contagious. For someone with a weak constitution like you, no matter how much protection you take, there's a high chance you'll be infected. You can't take that risk."
Chu Changxun's tone was firm. Jiang Li had never seen him so tough.
The girl was a little unconvinced for a moment. She was physically weak, so it was no problem for her to run 800 meters on the spot!
And most importantly,
"I have to go! My brother has also contracted malaria... If I don't go to save him, he might die..."
Jiang Li suddenly softened her tone and lowered her head, which made people feel distressed.
Chu Changfeng rolled his Adam's apple. He knew how important Jiang Lanchuan was to Jiang Li, and she was so stubborn. Could he really stop her?
Besides, if she got angry and didn't ask me to borrow medicine, but went to someone else, and finally sneaked off to the battlefield...
Chu Changxun was so frightened by his own guess that his breathing stopped, and his gaze at Jiang Li became even more intimidating.
Nothing more...
"I can get you medicine, but you have to take me with you."
Jiang Li: ???
……
At the gate of the prince's mansion, Jiang Li sat in the carriage blankly, holding the medicinal herbs.
She didn't know how she had agreed to Chu Changxun, and how she left the Prince's Mansion with the medicinal herbs.
She was going to the battlefield, not to play, and Chu Changxun himself said that the place was dangerous, so why should he go with her?
Jiang Li really couldn't figure it out, so in the end she could only give him a doctor's heart and want him to save the dying and the wounded.
It would be good to have someone proficient in medicine to help me, then the chances of success will be greater...
……
The next morning, Jiang Li asked Liusu to comb her hair into a man's bun.
After changing into men's clothes, Jiang Li stood in front of the bronze mirror and felt that something was missing.
I looked left and right, and finally slapped my head. It was too short!
The original owner's body was probably a little underdeveloped. Although she had the same face as her modern self, the height difference was huge.
Modern Jiang Li is 1.7 meters tall, while ancient Jiang Li was less than 1.65 meters tall.
This guy is really too thin among men.
The girl quickly asked Liusu to find some insoles for her to put in her shoes, so that she could barely reach 1.7 meters.
Looking at her "tall" self in the mirror, Jiang Li smiled with satisfaction.
"That's more like it!"
Chu Changxun had been waiting for Jiang Li at the gate of the palace since early morning. Since they were going with the reinforcements from the capital this time, they could not use the carriage.
He went to the Imperial Medical Bureau last night and asked to join the imperial physician accompanying the army.
The head of the Imperial Medical Service agreed on the spot, not only because he knew that Chu Changxun was a good doctor, but most importantly, he wanted to replace his son who was forced to follow the army.
Not only is that place too dangerous, but if you fail to relieve the plague and anger the emperor, you might even be beheaded!
Someone wanted to be a sucker, and he was so happy that he couldn't contain himself.
"I want to bring a little servant with me this time, is that okay?"
"Of course you can! Even if the conditions are difficult, the prince still needs someone to take care of him!"
The head of the Imperial Hospital laughed so hard that his eyes were blind. He agreed not only to bring a maid, but even to bring a woman.
……
Chu Changxun couldn't help laughing when he saw the "little servant" walking out of the palace gate.
Jiang Li even walked down with her arms swinging exaggeratedly on purpose, her demeanor changed.
