Chapter 791 Agreement, Meng Chaoming promised the ladies
Ye Xiaohan's tone was calm, but it shocked Zeng's family. Ask the princess to cut some colorful Ganoderma lucidum for him?
"Your Highness, no! No! How can I ask the princess for such a precious medicine? Not even a little bit!" Butler Zeng was grateful for the prince's kind suggestion. Although the prince was cold and ruthless, he was actually very nice to servants like them.
Butler Zeng continued, "Your Highness, this good medicine should be kept for you and the princess. I am old, so I must not waste such good medicine. When your Highness and the princess use this legendary Lingzhi that can keep their beauty, won't they be even more handsome and beautiful?"
Ye Xiaohan looked at Butler Zeng calmly, "It's okay, let's talk about it when the princess comes back."
What he meant was that Yun Mujiu was also very kind to the people around him, and if Butler Zeng needed help, Yun Mujiu would also help him.
Ye Xiaohan added: "This medicine is rare, but its efficacy may not be as miraculous as the legend says. If it is really exaggerated to the point of being able to keep people young forever, it would be against common sense."
If there really were such a drug that went against nature, the news about it would probably be known to everyone on the entire continent, and those people would certainly make quite a fuss.
Moreover, if the Ganoderma lucidum can make people younger, wouldn’t it be bold to speculate that it can also make people immortal?
Nowadays, even if a person has reached the top level of martial arts and has a physical fitness that is extremely superior to others, it is not certain that he will live for hundreds of years, let alone only live to about 150 years old. As for the argument that eating a Ganoderma lucidum can make you immortal, it is even more nonsense.
The average life expectancy of people on the Star-Moon Continent is only about seventy years old. Under current conditions, it is impossible to have medicine that can keep people young and immortal.
Ye Xiaohan's analysis was reasonable and sober. Butler Zeng nodded continuously: "Your Majesty is right."
Ye Xiaohan glanced at the colorful Ganoderma lucidum that was glowing white, and said, "Although this Ganoderma lucidum cannot achieve the effect of permanent youth and immortality, it can maintain and repair the existing appearance and improve physical fitness. It is still better than other rare herbs."
Some rare medicines have good effects. Ye Xiaohan once gave Yun Mujiu a pill made from Qianqing Nine-leaf Grass. After Yun Mujiu took the pill, a lot of toxins were eliminated from his body, and his physical condition improved rapidly overnight.
"Your Highness is right." Du Ziheng continued Ye Xiaohan's words, pointing at the Ganoderma lucidum and said, "This Ganoderma lucidum has grown for at least a few hundred years. Although its efficacy is not heaven-defying, it is definitely not bad."
Ye Xiaohan hummed, and said to everyone: "If you want to improve your physical condition and maintain your complexion, the items in the Herbal Hall, Laurel Building, and Hundred Flowers Garden opened by the princess are enough to meet your needs."
Everyone agreed seriously, and recalled the situation of the shop under the princess' name, and smiled slightly. They often went to Yueguilou to eat medicinal food, and occasionally went to the Herb Hall to get a dose of soup medicine when needed. As for maintaining their face, they were not that interested.
However, the prince and princess have issued VIP cards to everyone in the Ye Palace. If they don’t use them, the money that the prince and princess have deposited in the VIP cards for them will be wasted. So recently they have begun to learn to follow the princess’s words—“properly” take care of their faces and bodies.
Butler Zeng touched his old face, whose skin had improved recently, with a kind smile on his lips.
When Wei Bai thought of the handsome face in the mirror this morning, which looked more energetic than ever, he immediately smiled.
Wei Song thought of Wei Bai teasing him - his face, which was as black as coal, actually turned a little whiter. At least others could see what Wei Song's expression was underneath his dark face.
Du Ziheng coughed lightly, his face looking a little unnatural. When he was treating the soldiers in the Night Palace recently, the men teased him about whether he was thinking about starting a family, and that he had dressed himself up so neatly and handsomely recently...
Ye Xiaohan thought of what Yun Mujiu had done, and a smile flashed across his eyes. The extraordinary Mu Mu brought about extraordinary changes.
"Du Ziheng, I order you to find out more information about the Colorful Ganoderma Lucidum and inform the princess when she returns."
"Yes, I understand!"
Ye Xiaohan asked a personal guard again: "Is there any new news from the palace?"
"Your Highness, not yet. The princess should still be in Renshou Palace."
"Yeah." Ye Xiaohan turned his head to look at Wei Song, "Are you all ready?"
"Your Majesty, I have assembled a team of men and horses and are ready to set off at any time."
"No hurry, wait until the princess returns to the palace."
Ye Xiaohan waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave. He thought that the emperor and the queen would not want to embarrass Yun Mujiu like last time. If he could give Yun Mujiu the token of the previous emperor and personally go to the palace gate to pick up Yun Mujiu once, there would be a second time.
His token was not on him at this time...
In Renshou Palace, Yun Mujiu touched the token in his sleeve pocket and nodded seriously to the empress dowager.
“So there is such a past.”
From the Queen Mother's description, Yun Mujiu learned some old stories.
When the Empress Dowager was in her teens, the magical effects of the colorful Ganoderma lucidum were widely spread in the capital.
At that time, the empress dowager was not yet the empress dowager, but the second daughter of the Xuan family, Xuan Nianci.
When Xuan Nianci was seventeen, she was about to enter the marriageable age, so she had more opportunities to go out and participate in social activities. At that time, she had just made friends with He Qiu, a young lady who came to Beijing from the south, Meng Chaoming, a young general who had just taken office, and some other young ladies from official families.
At that time, Xuan Nianci and the ladies including He Qiu were very interested in the colorful Ganoderma lucidum, and they specifically asked Meng Chaoming about it at the banquet.
Before returning to the capital to work, Meng Chaoming had been training in the southern border of Zhongyue. Naturally, he knew more about the local conditions than those people in the capital.
Meng Chaoming said that there was indeed a legend about the colorful Ganoderma lucidum in the local area, just like in the capital, but the authenticity of the legend could not be confirmed, and he had never seen or heard anyone say that they had picked colorful Ganoderma lucidum when he was in the frontier.
Meng Chaoming was very indifferent to the ladies' curiosity about the colorful Ganoderma lucidum. He didn't seem to be overly interested in the legend, nor was he tempted by the magical effects of Ganoderma lucidum at all.
During the break of the banquet, He Qiu asked Meng Chaoming: "I really want to see what the legendary colorful Ganoderma lucidum looks like. If you have the opportunity to see the colorful Ganoderma lucidum in the future, can you come back and describe to me what it looks like?"
Meng Chaoming agreed, and Xuan Nianci, who was next to He Qiu, also made her own request. She also wanted to know what the Ganoderma lucidum that could help women maintain their beauty looked like.
Meng Chaoming looked at He Qiu and agreed to his request in He Qiu's eager eyes. Later, Meng Chaoming stayed in the capital for a few months, and then returned to the border to search for the whereabouts of the colorful Ganoderma lucidum...
