One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Baili Jinchuan's actions were relayed back to the capital, causing the people to cheer in joy. Although the Second Prince's actions had gone against the imperial edict, it was for the common people's sake. Many people were burning incense in their homes day and night, praying that the Buddha would help the Second Prince complete the disaster as soon as possible.

On the contrary was a large number of court officials. These days, Baili Qingyuan's imperial court case had been completely drowned out by the reports of the impeachment of the Second Prince.

"Royal father, second brother is truly too arrogant. You sent him to die in order to relieve the disaster, but he first killed more than half of the officials in Jiangnan. Without the jurisdiction of the local officials, we still don't know what will happen in Jiangnan."

Baili Qingfeng lowered his head to look at the imperial report, his deep eyes revealed no emotion, "Then what do you think we should do?"

"I think we should immediately recall second brother and remove his title. Let him stay in seclusion for a while to pacify the people."

Baili Qingfeng stared at him coldly, as he questioned, "After he was recalled, who would go to Jiangnan to continue to provide relief? You?"

The third prince immediately choked. Jiangnan was full of plague, who would dare to send themselves to their deaths?

"Since you don't even want to go, then let's do this for now. Send all the medicinal ingredients that Jiang Nan needs over as soon as possible. No one can delay the Second Prince's actions. We can talk about it after Jiang Nan has calmed down." After Baili Qingfeng finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left in large strides.

The Crown Prince, who was dressed in bright yellow clothes, stood up and was stopped by the Third Prince, "Crown Prince, when the plague in Jiangnan subsides, Second Brother will become a popular figure in Jiangnan. When that happens, we won't even be able to touch his people. Second Brother's status in the military is quite high. Now that you have added on the public's desire, the Crown Prince must be careful. "

The smile on Baili Jinyi's face was warm, "As the eldest brother, I am naturally happy that you have the people's support. Third brother, the country is in danger now, so you shouldn't talk about this anymore."

After the crown prince had left, the third prince spat on the ground, "Pui!" "You speak with dignity. Hmph, I refuse to believe that you aren't anxious." Now, because of the prescription, the Zhao Family suffered greatly. It had been a long time since the emperor had gone to the empress dowager's palace. He wanted to see how long the crown prince could hold out for.

At this time, in Riverside City, relief efforts were proceeding in an orderly manner. With the precedents of Ping City and Yi City, no one caused any trouble here. Many commoners who had just recovered would have to help the busy guards take care of the victims and distribute items.

On the main street, the city that had been deathly silent for a long time slowly came to life. However, the originally happy Baili JinChuan was now frowning.

"Old General Xiao, the medicinal ingredients in the warehouse can only last for four days at most. If no medicinal ingredients are delivered after four days, Jiang Nan will probably be in chaos."

Xiao Jingran's expression was solemn and his voice sounded tired: "Second prince, this old official has already written a report overnight. In this situation, I can only try my best. This old official will go and urge the second prince not to be too anxious. "

He thought that the situation in Jiangnan was so serious that his brothers shouldn't make things difficult for them. He didn't expect that he was too naive.

Unknowingly, he had walked out of the hall and arrived at the garden behind the magistrate court.

Shen Ninghua sat on a stool in the small pavilion and rested with her head against her hands.

The sun was warm and the wind was blowing gently. She slowly fell asleep due to her long fatigue. Her porcelain like face shone faintly under the sunlight. Her two eyebrows were thick and sparse, giving her a fresh and elegant charm. Under her thick eyelashes, her bright eyes were gently closed. They were no longer as indifferent and distant as before, making one involuntarily want to get closer to her.

Baili JinChuan stopped in his tracks not far away, staring at her with infatuated eyes. He could hear his heart thumping rapidly in his chest.

Shen Ninghua dozed off. Suddenly, she felt a burning gaze land on herself. She abruptly opened her eyes and asked, "His Highness, the Second Prince?"

Baili JinChuan subconsciously calmed himself down, "Why did you fall asleep here? "Is it too tired?"

Although the emotions in Baili JinChuan's eyes disappeared very quickly, Shen Ninghua was still able to pick up on some clues. His voice became even colder as he said, "Nothing, why have you come?"

"The medicinal herbs are still nowhere to be seen..." Saying that, he let out a heavy sigh, "Does royal father know about this matter? Do you have a way to congeal flowers? "

Shen Ninghua frowned, "No." It was difficult for a beautiful woman to have a picnic. She could not produce so many medicinal ingredients out of thin air.

"I was delusional," Baili JinChuan apologized. Shen Ninghua gave him too much comfort. No matter what, she was always so adept at handling matters. When he couldn't find her pillar of support, she was the first one he thought of.

Chu Junyi waved her fan as she approached. When she saw the two men in the pavilion, she said, "It turns out that there are quite a few commoners gathered at the entrance to the Second Prince's residence. Your Highness should go take a look."

Baili JinChuan quickly stood up, "Thank you for Young Master Mo's advice. Xiao Hua, I will go take a look first."

Shen Ninghua nodded and did not say a word.

Chu Junyi pursed her lips into a faint smile. She waited until he was far away before sitting down opposite Shen Ninghua and speaking carelessly, "This person treats you like a gem bag. He's asking you for everything."

Having been disturbed to the point that he no longer had any sleepiness, Shen Ninghua turned to look at the lush rose that was growing by the side of the pavilion and asked, "Who stopped the medicinal herbs?"

"Other than the sixth and seventh princes, all the other princes are involved." Chu Junyi scoffed mockingly. When the citizens were in danger, were the princes still scheming? He really didn't know the meaning of the word.

Shen Ninghua thought for a while, unconsciously reaching out to fiddle with the teacup on the table.

Her jade fingers were outshone by the blue porcelain Smoke Bombs. Chu Junyi felt an itch in her heart. She couldn't help but wonder what it would feel like if she held them in her hands and played with them …

"If I want to buy medicinal herbs, do you have any ideas?"

Chu Junyi came back to her senses. "You want to buy medicinal herbs to help with the disaster?" This is not a small amount. Do you have that much silver? "

When I saved you, you gave me five thousand taels of gold and sold them to the Second Prince for five thousand taels of gold from the Absolute Weapon Manual. In addition to my mother's dowry, I earned a little bit of money, which added up to about one million taels of silver. As long as he was able to endure through the most difficult part, the Emperor would not allow these princes to ruin his plans.

One million silver? Chu Junyi was extremely surprised. She knew that Shen Ninghua had plenty of money, but she had never expected him to have so much money. "Ninghua, what do you do after you spend so much money on medicinal ingredients?" She no longer had a mother, and the Shen family was on the verge of collapsing. The Zhao family was eyeing her like a tiger. Even though she was adopted by Baili Qing Cang as his adopted daughter, her identity was still rather awkward.

Shen Ninghua's eyes curved into a smile and said, "Naturally, it's to earn some money."

"Earning money?" "You want to sell medicinal herbs?"

"Then what are your plans?"

"Of course it's a gift," Shen Ninghua's eyes lit up slightly as her beautiful face brightened up. "I'll buy the herbs and donate them in the name of a medicine store. Once the Jiangnan Plague has subsided, I'll open the medicine shop again. What do you think will happen then?"

"Ning Hua, how about I offer you some silver coins as well?" I want the name of the medicine store. Chu Junyi and Shen Ninghua, did we work together to open a medicine store? "

Shen Ninghua almost burst out laughing, "How can you be so thick-skinned? Jun Hua Medicine shop, why aren't you called Hua Jun Medicine shop? "

The smile on Chu Junyi's face was gentle, the fan in her hand and the depths of her eyes. She looked like a gentleman with a noble air, but her words were enough to make anyone want to step on his face.

"Alright, then let's call it the Hua Jun Medicine Store. Naturally, your name will be on the list." Xiao Hua, I remember you asking me if I have taken a fancy to your little sister. I told you that I want to marry someone who is good at housekeeping and has outstanding ability, I think you are just right. In a short while, you will be too old for me, so why don't we make do with each other? "

Shen Ninghua raised her brows, her face red from anger. If it weren't for the circumstances, she would have thrown the teacup in her hand at Chu Junyi. "I've never seen someone as thick-skinned as you."

"But unfortunately, you're an exception." As he spoke, he completely ignored him and concentrated on admiring the rose beside him.

"Exceptions will be an exception." Chu Jun didn't mind Shen Ninghua's disregard at all. He chuckled and said, "Even though my identity as Mo Junqing is a fake, I can use this identity to buy some medicinal ingredients. Since you can pay 1 million silver taels, I can't be too bad.

Three million silver taels was enough to sustain Jiangnan for half a month. Shen Ninghua watched his figure leave in an unhurried and graceful manner, not knowing what expression to make. Finally, she let out a soft laugh.

News of the medicinal herbs not being transported to Jiangnan exploded like thunder overnight. The victims immediately fell into hell, the plague rampaging everywhere. Every day, people would die, and at this time, there were no more medicinal herbs.

For a moment, the entire Jiangnan Province was filled with crying. The heavens seemed to feel that this was not enough, and it started to rain again after a few days of sunny weather. The already teetering riverbank became even more snowy.

The Imperial Physician spoke in a dejected tone, "Reporting to His Highness Second Prince, all the medicinal ingredients in the storehouse have been used up. There are already many carriages from other towns waiting at the city gates, and all they need to do is distribute the medicinal ingredients and go back to boil them for help …"

Baili Jin Chuan threw the teacup on the ground, "Medicinal ingredients! Medicinal ingredients! When will the medicinal herbs come?! "

Suddenly, a surprised shout was heard from outside the door. A guard ran in with a joyous face and threw himself onto the ground. He didn't care and shouted with a grin:

"Your Highness Second Prince, there's medicine! The medicine is here!"
