Chapter 116 Recruiting tribute ([-])

"It seems that we are a little late." A loud and powerful voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked around in confusion and saw a group of people walking slowly from the stairs. The leader was a couple. The husband was dressed in purple robes and wore a golden crown. Even though he was already in his prime, he still looked majestic and handsome. The husband is invincible in his majesty, while the woman is handsome, elegant and dignified.

Looking from afar, it looks like it is either rich or expensive.

The two people talked softly all the way, and the woman smiled slightly from time to time. The slightly raised corners of her lips seemed to contain infinite tolerance and kindness. Just looking at it was enough to make people feel comfortable.

Everyone looked at it silently, with envious and curious expressions.

Liu Zhenyue and several imperial doctors who were originally sitting in the upright position trembled. When they saw the person clearly, they were so frightened that even the color on their faces lost a bit. They quickly stood up, and then hurriedly knelt down. On the ground.

"Weak minister, please come to see your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen——!"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was shocked.

All the people who came to their senses after a while, no matter how they could still stand, all of them fell to their knees in an instant.

Emperor Liang looked at everyone and smiled slightly, "The people who can stand here this time are all those who saved lives and healed the wounded in the capital. There is no need to perform this grand ceremony. Please get up."

Liu Zhenyue stood up and walked to Emperor Liang's side, asking respectfully, "I didn't know that the emperor and the empress were here. This is a minor dereliction of duty."

Emperor Liang said, "I remembered that the queen always loved to eat pastries on this street, so I took the queen out for a walk. I happened to hear that the Imperial Hospital was recruiting tributes nearby, so I wanted to come and have a look."

Empress Meng looked at Emperor Liang and smiled tenderly, but she sneered in her heart. If I hadn't deliberately given you some pastries that I had eaten with you on the street when you were still a prince, you would have been carried away by Yingying Yuanyuan in the harem. You, I’m afraid you can’t even remember my last name.

"I just heard that the candidates for tribute have been decided?" Emperor Liang asked as he glanced at the people around him.

Liu Zhenyue nodded, "It's Dongfang's pharmacy."

Liang Di raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Where is he?"

Madam Liu never expected that the Emperor and the Queen would arrive suddenly. She was nervous and surprised as she took a few steps forward, knelt down and said, "I have seen the Emperor and the Queen."

Queen Meng still knew about the Liu family. Because of this, she couldn't help but feel cold in her heart. She didn't expect that she hurriedly and slowly failed to stop the Liu family from fighting for the head of the Xia Tai Hospital.

But thinking about Su Chengying's exquisite orifices, Queen Meng felt that she would never be so flawless.

and so……

What exactly does Su Chengying want to do to turn things around?

Madam Liu was kneeling on the ground, her hands trembling uncontrollably. Originally, getting the title of Zhao Gong would be enough for her to become famous. If she was praised by the emperor again, who else in Beijing would be able to rival her shop in the future?
"So it's..." Liang Di was talking when he was suddenly interrupted by a burst of noise on the street. He turned his head slightly and saw many people queuing up on the street. The long queue was like a queue. Like, you can't see the end at a glance.

"Go and see what they are doing." Emperor Liang looked downstairs at the fifth prince who was guarding the teahouse and ordered.

The fifth prince quickly sent someone to investigate, and within a moment he went up to the corridor in person, "Let me tell you, father, I heard that only a few pharmacies are open for consultation in the city today, and people are queuing up to see a doctor."

Liu Zhenyue hurriedly explained, "The country, the country, and the country are tied to the Holy One. The health of the Emperor's dragon body is the blessing of all people. Therefore, everyone present voluntarily stayed in seclusion for a day and devoted themselves to the imperial hospital to recruit tributes. They only wanted to share the worries of the Emperor's dragon body."

Madam Liu also followed suit, "No matter how stupid I am, I know that only the holy body and health are the keys to a prosperous country."

This was said more beautifully than sung, and Emperor Liang felt relieved. However, Emperor Liang was not a foolish emperor. Looking at the people queuing up for medical treatment in the ice and snow, he felt pity in his heart. This made him even more curious. Who is still thinking about the people when everyone else is closing their shops?

With this in mind, Emperor Liang immediately led the queen downstairs. Seeing this, everyone followed closely behind. They all followed out of the Dingjiang Teahouse and walked along the end of the queue where the people were queuing.

The head of the family, who had lost the job of recruiting tribute, couldn't help but look at the eldest lady Liu as she walked. She looked so proud just now, but now she was stolen from the limelight by a person who didn't even show her face...

The taste of this is so sour just thinking about it!
The eldest lady, Mrs. Liu, faced the mocking looks of everyone, she was angry and even more anxious, because she knew very well that the only drug stores open in the city today were those owned by Su Chengying.

Perhaps in the eyes of everyone, what Su Chengying did was to pick up sesame seeds and lose the watermelon, which was completely ridiculous. However, the emperor held a high position and devoted himself to serving the country and the people. If he really saw Su Chengying leading people to treat the people, Sickness must be rewarded without punishment.

And for the drug store, what can the emperor reward?
Naturally, there is a quota for recruiting tribute!
Madam Liu's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly called the boy behind her and stuffed a stack of banknotes over her, "You go to Temple Street now and find a man named Kong Liu, and then... "

The boy listened carefully, then quietly turned and left after a moment.

The eldest lady, Mrs. Liu, calmed down and continued to walk forward with the team. Her eyes were as cold as if they were filled by the cool breeze. Since she dared to calculate her quota of tribute, don't blame her for not showing mercy.

The medicine shop is still surrounded by people coming to seek medical advice, three floors inside and three floors outside.

Su Chengying had just finished diagnosing a commoner, and out of the corner of her eye she saw the emperor and his entourage slowly moving towards this direction. However, before she had time to think about it, she saw Zhang Ben running over in a hurry, "The boss is not in good shape." , something happened to the drug store next door!"

After hearing this, Su Chengying asked Huang Qi to replace her for a moment, then stood up and followed Zhang Ben towards the drug store next door, asking softly, "Do you know what happened?"

Zhang Ben explained, "Someone went to the shop next door to see a doctor and prescribed medicine. After returning home, his body was covered with sores. Now he has made trouble and is not letting go in the shop."

The two people were talking and went to the shop next door. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a man in tattered clothes and covered with abscesses. He was smashing things in the shop crazily. The people who came to see the doctor were all beaten. They were so frightened that they all backed away.

Zhang Ben saw this and hurriedly went over to stop him, but was pushed to the table by the man. His lower back hit the corner of the table hard, and he was so painful that he broke into cold sweat.

When the man saw this, not only did he not feel any debt, but he said with a fierce expression, "Your shop gave me free diagnosis and treatment under the guise of free, but they used some bad and fake medicines. Now you have made me look like this." With this appearance, you must give me an explanation today!"
