"Young Madam, Myriad Drug Pavilion has arrived." The coachman, who had received the order, started to call Lin Mengya young madam.
A pair of slender snow-white hands lifted the coral velvet curtain before a pretty young girl came out.
The guests and shop a.s.sistants in the Myriad Drug Pavilion all stretched their necks to see the girl walking down the carriage.
They wondered which young lady had this sort of special treatment.
The little girl put a footstool on the ground before she waited by the carriage. Then an absolutely gorgeous young lady walked out.
Although she was young, she looked graceful and dignified. Not a trace of cowardice could be seen on her pretty face, which easily made people hold her in awe.
Her bright eyes radiated chilling coldness. Her air of quiet authority was actually superior to quite a few rich businessmen and dignitaries. No one dared to look into her eyes and could only avert their gaze toward the things on their hands.
It was really strange. They wondered which young lady had such an air of confidence.
"Boss, there is a stunning beauty outside!" A quick-witted shop a.s.sistant rushed to the second floor to report. The shopkeeper, who had experienced a lot, had come up with a plan within seconds.
"Go and invite her to the private room on the second floor. Make tea for us."
"Is this the Myriad Drug Pavilion the coachman said? It's really worthy of the reputation." Lin Mengya gently sniffed the deep fragrance of medicine in the air and guessed there were at least 8,000 sorts of medicine.
Weird, when did she become so proficient in traditional Chinese medicine?
"Madam, welcome. Our shopkeeper invited you to the second floor." The shop a.s.sistant greeted Lin Mengya with a big smile. However, before he could approach the fairy-like young lady, the plainclothes guards, who followed her, had stood in front of the lady.
Lin Mengya raised her skirt hemline and nodded slightly. Then she led her guards and Ruyue to the second floor of the Myriad Drug Pavilion.
"I didn't know it was Princess Yu who came. I haven't greeted you immediately. I beg your pardon, your highness."
Just when they reached the second floor, the shopkeeper knelt down and kowtowed to her.
Lin Mengya could not help but raise her eyebrows and studied the shopkeeper, who had exactly revealed her ident.i.ty the moment they met.
"Since you did not know it, you should not be blamed. And besides, I intentionally hid it. Shopkeeper, stand up please." The voice sounded gentle and sweet without any arrogance. Instantly, the legendary Princess Yu made a good impression on Shopkeeper Wan.
"Take a seat, please. You don't have to mind the etiquette. This time, I came here because I need you to do me a favor." Lin Mengya sat down first and thought it was right to come here.
Some of the herbal medicines she needed were rare and she had searched the entire pharmacy of their mansion but could not find it. Moreover, she now faced a big problem.
She had no money!
After thinking for a while, she decided that she had to be thick-skinned to use Prince Yu's reputation.
"Your Highness, you can order me to do anything. And I will try my best to do, but my ability is limited, if..."
How worldly-wise Shopkeeper Wan was! He gave a perfect response.
Lin Mengya smiled and interrupted the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper Wan, don't worry. I won't make it difficult for you. Tell you the truth, I've been looking for some rare herbal medicines and want you to help me collect them. But Shopkeeper Wan, rest a.s.sured, I'll buy them at the market price and will not let you suffer losses."
Lin Mengya's att.i.tude was mild and her voice sounded modest. Shopkeeper Wan suddenly got more good impression of the princess. He cupped his hands, bowed and immediately agreed to Lin Mengya's request.
"Here is my list." Lin Mengya said. Ruyue immediately presented the list that the princess had just made. The name and dosage of the medicine were clearly written on it.
After receiving the list, the shopkeeper turned slightly pale.
The herbal medicines were not very valuable, but these were difficult to find. Even if in his Myriad Drug Pavilion, he could only find more than half.
No wonder the princess wanted him to help collect the medicine.
"Your Highness, I'll give you some of the medicine on it. But the others are really rare. I'm afraid I have to ask other people to search for you. But it's hard to say whether they can find it." Shopkeeper Wan weighed his words and feard that he would provoke this distinguished guest.
"It doesn't matter. Shopkeeper Wan, just try your best to do it." Lin Mengya lowered her head and took a sip of tea, with a faint smile on her face.
"Then that's good. But if I get some news, how should I inform you, Your Highness? Prince Yu's Mansion is heavily guarded, I'm afraid..."
Lin Mengya took out a suet jade ring from her waist, with the pattern of two phoenixes singing to each other and the character "Yu" engraved on it, and she gently put it on the table, which startled Shopkeeper Wan.
This was Princess Yu's token, the jade ring with cyan and fire phoenixes!
"If you have any news, take this jade ring and come to tell me about it." Lin Mengya rose and went downstairs. Shopkeeper Wan immediately held the jade ring, with his eyes full of excitement and fear.
"Oh my G.o.d, this is the princess's token. If I can keep it in the Myriad Drug Pavilion, it will be my talisman."
"Boss, boss, the lady just now... she... she..." The little shop a.s.sistant rushed to the second floor and looked a bit anxious.
"Say it. Don't treat her coldly. If she needs something, try to satisfy her!" Looking at the jade ring carefully, he felt as if his heart were struck by a thunderbolt.
Watching the princess's guards take ten boxes of herbal medicines and quickly walk out of their shop, Shopkeeper Wan was overjoyed.
If this deal was done, the annual profits of Myriad Drug Pavilion would double.
"Come on, bring me the banknote the madam gave. I want to take it with me." The loyal banknotes were marked with the national treasury seal. It was rare for ordinary people to have a look.
"Boss... Princess didn't give the banknotes or silver, but only this thing." The shop a.s.sistant handed a piece of paper to his boss. Shopkeeper Wan almost spat out a mouthful of blood after seeing it.
G.o.d! The respected Princess Yu actually left a loan receipt! And it was signed with the name of Prince Yu, Long Tianhao.
Shopkeeper Wan, who tried to cry but failed to shed a tear, could only hold the precious jade ring and murmured.
"I hope Princess Yu will not be a deadbeat!" If the princess took his herbal medicines but would not pay for it, he would suffer great losses!
In the carriage, Ruyue snickered.
Just now, her miss made strokes with the ink brush and wrote a loan receipt in the name of Prince Yu.
This was the first time that she had seen somethone buy herbal medicines and leave without paying.
"Miss, do you know how the shopkeeper of the Myriad Drug Pavilion recognized your ident.i.ty?" She c.o.c.ked her head and peeled another orange for the young lady. Now, she really could not see through her young lady at all.
"Although our carriage has no sign of Prince Yu's Mansion, the four corners of the carriage roof are decorated with Coiled-dragon Royal Bells. Only the princes are qualified to use the sign of coiled dragon and only Prince Yu can use the octagonal royal bells, so as long as the man has the sight, he will guess it," Lin Mengya said. Before she got married, she had read a book of royal ceremonies that Queen gave according to the rules.
