Chapter 216: This Peach Blossom Village is really prosperous!
The Jin Kingdom Emperor was extremely shocked after hearing Xingnong’s words: “Mandarin Duck Snake Venom? Wasn’t that poison cured?”
He thought they had already cured the poison at that time, so they survived.
Moreover, although he had amnesia before, imperial physicians checked his body every year, and the imperial physicians did not diagnose that he still had residual poison in his body!
Xingnong glanced at him and asked curiously, “There’s still residual poison. I heard that the aftereffect of men being poisoned by Mandarin Duck Snake Venom is that their temperament is easily irritable, do you have it?”
The Jin Kingdom Emperor, who was called a tyrant: “…No! My temper is very good!”
Towards their mother and daughter, he would definitely not be irritable, he had twelve thousand points of patience!
As for other people, even if he had a bad temper, other people had to endure it!
Xingnong didn’t expose him, only saying, “My mother can’t stand people with irritable tempers, even if you’re irritable towards other people. But she’s afraid even when she sees other people angry!”
The Jin Kingdom Emperor: “…Don’t worry, absolutely no one dares to be angry in front of her! But how is this Mandarin Duck Snake Venom cured?”
As the emperor of a country, he had to manage the ministers below, of course, there were times when he had to show his imperial authority.
In case Ruoxi accidentally saw it and it scared her, it would be troublesome, so the poison still had to be cured!
After all, he had so many concubines in his harem, and after she went back, those concubines certainly wouldn’t dare to do anything in front of him, but they would definitely say something behind his back, this kind of thing couldn’t be stopped.
After all, both men and women are naturally jealous when it comes to relationships.
Just like when he saw that hunter surnamed Li being attentive in front of his child’s mother, he was also jealous, and he would also do some childish things.
This was almost nature, instinct!
Now, although they all got along harmoniously, it was because he treated everyone the same, he was not very keen on that aspect, taking concubines was only a need to balance the power between ministers and the need for heirs, so generally after those concubines entered the palace, he would give them a child, and then he would no longer favor them.
They also knew that everyone would only be a concubine in this life, and they would no longer be favored by the emperor after giving birth to a child, so there was nothing to fight for, it was very harmonious!
But having one more empress was different!
The Jin Kingdom Emperor felt that no matter what, Shen Ruoxi’s poison had to be cured.
“Do you know the antidote?” The Jin Kingdom Emperor asked.
Xingnong nodded, “Yes, Divine Doctor Zhao has it. I need the Divine Pill in Divine Doctor Zhao’s hand. I just need to borrow it, that’s all.”
Telling him, with his identity, it might be easier to get it.
After all, the Zhao Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom had always been at odds, and the Jin Kingdom was the head of the four kingdoms, the Zhao Kingdom had always been flattering and currying favor with the Jin Kingdom.
Besides, an emperor asking a divine doctor to borrow a pill, just borrow it, it shouldn’t be difficult.
The Jin Kingdom Emperor was a little surprised when he heard this, “Why just borrow it?”
Let alone borrowing, if the Divine Pill in Divine Doctor Zhao’s hand could really cure the poison in Shen Ruoxi’s body, he would get it at all costs.
Xingnong wanted to say, “I’ll just take a look.”
She just needed to put it on the creation platform, all the medicinal herb genes inside would be displayed, and then she could directly revive the medicinal herbs inside,
The Jin Kingdom Emperor nodded, “Don’t worry, Father Emperor will definitely borrow it.”
This was a major event related to the health of his precious daughter’s mother.
As for what his daughter said about just taking a look, he also tactfully didn’t ask, his daughter must have secrets, those corn, those pest-free vegetables, were not something ordinary people could grow, although he was curious, he wouldn’t inquire about it.

Arriving at the county, Xingnong first went to Welcome Inn, for convenience, she carried a back basket when she went out, she gave the pot of Soul-Soothing Herb in the back basket to Shopkeeper Zhao of Welcome Inn.
Shopkeeper Zhao was very happy to see Xingnong, he deeply regretted not agreeing to buy her recipes that day, now Welcome Guest Restaurant had snatched a lot of business, fortunately, this kind of food would get tiresome after eating too much, the recipes of the two restaurants were different, and Welcome Inn also constantly launched new dishes, so the business was not bad, before it was a monopoly, now it was fierce competition between the two restaurants.
However, he heard from Songbai that Miss Xingnong of Welcome Guest Restaurant accounted for most of the dividends, that was the future Crown Princess’s own business, it didn’t matter which business was good!
“Has Miss Xingnong had lunch? The restaurant has launched several new dishes, would Miss Xingnong like to try them?” It just so happened that he was going to send New Year’s gifts to Miss Xingnong’s family in a while, the master had already prepared this matter.
After Miss Xingnong finished eating, he would send her back by the way.
Xingnong smiled and shook her head, “No, I’ve already eaten, next time! I still have things to do, I’ll go first.”
Xingnong still had to go to the bookstore to submit the manuscript, after saying goodbye to the shopkeeper, she first went to the clothing store to buy a few sets of clothes for Chu Zijun, and then went straight to the bookstore.
She entered through the back door.
The shopkeeper of the bookstore heard that she had come, and excitedly ran back to the backyard immediately, the person hadn’t arrived, but the voice came first, “Miss Xingnong, you’re finally here!”
Xingnong had just put down the back basket, she took out a thick stack of manuscripts from the back basket, “There are two storybooks here.”
When the bookstore shopkeeper heard that there were two storybooks, he was so happy that he couldn’t even see his eyes, he quickly took out a new jade token, “The Qian Family Bank is probably going to close down, I deposited all the silver into the newly opened Heavenly Star Bank, this bank is kind, you can earn a little interest when you deposit silver, this is the dividend for these two months, the books are selling very well, they have already been sold to the other three kingdoms in these two months, they earned more than one hundred thousand taels in two months! This is just the beginning!”
“Girl, you write hard! Now all the major opera troupes have started rehearsing your storybooks! The performances of the opera troupes are scheduled until March next year! During the New Year, opera troupes all over the place will perform dozens of shows a day, all of them are your storybooks! These opera troupes are all looking for apprentices! … In short, you should write more storybooks whenever you have time, preferably three to five a month, you know?”
The shopkeeper talked incessantly for a long time.
Xingnong listened attentively, and when he finally finished speaking, she replied with one word, “Okay.”
The shopkeeper took it as Xingnong agreeing.
Then Xingnong happily left with the jade token of Heavenly Star Bank.
Outside the bookstore, the Jin Kingdom Emperor waited for Xingnong to get on the carriage and asked gently, “Where else does Xingnong want to go?”
Xingnong said, “I have nowhere else to go, don’t you want to buy things?”
The Jin Kingdom Emperor nodded, “Yes, the New Year is coming soon, I want to buy some things to send as New Year’s gifts, can you help me think about what to send to the elders and villagers in the village?”
Xingnong, “Just send some food.”
He mainly wanted to take his daughter shopping, to buy things for his daughter, wife, and mother-in-law.
But he knew that his wife and mother-in-law wouldn’t accept it if he gave it to them individually, so he simply gave it to the whole village.
So the Jin Kingdom Emperor took Xingnong to the silver shop, fabric shop, grocery shop, and bought a lot of things.
Before dark, carts loaded with grain and cloth entered Peach Blossom Village, alarming the nearby villagers.
Everyone thought it was the goods purchased by the workshops, thinking that dozens of carts of goods had been sent out this morning, they were all envious!
This Peach Blossom Village is really prosperous!
Those two workshops had so many goods coming in and out every day, how much silver did they have to earn?
