The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 876

Chapter 876: 405 Slap in the Face (Two Chapters Combined)

Princess Xinyang preferred tranquility, and there were not many servants in the Courtyard. Moreover, they generally stayed in the front courtyard, with only Yujin and the Dragon Shadow Guard having the privilege to enter the inner courtyard.

Yujin was originally the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family, distinct from the female officials who came from palace maid backgrounds. She had earned her position in Princess Xinyang’s Residence through her own abilities.

After bidding farewell to the Crown Princess, Yujin turned and returned to Princess Xinyang’s room.

Princess Xinyang had slept until evening before waking up, feeling a tightness in her chest upon awakening.

Yujin approached, and noticing her discomforting complexion, gently lifted her jade hand to take the Princess’s pulse, asking with concern, "Princess, your pulse seems rather irregular, shall we have some medicine first?"

Yujin was not a medic, but given Princess Xinyang’s prolonged illness, she had been compelled to learn some medical knowledge.

Princess Xinyang did not object. With Yujin’s assistance, she sat up, and Yujin fetched a pillow to support her back.

As Yujin was about to fetch the medicine, she hesitated.

There were two bottles on the table, one was the Protecting Heart Pill she had bought from a Yan Country pharmacist, and the other was the Hundred Flowers Pill personally delivered by the Crown Princess just a moment ago.

The Hundred Flowers Pill was exceedingly rare, even rarer than the Protecting Heart Pill from the Yan Country pharmacist; it was said to cure all manner of diseases.

Yujin informed that the Crown Princess had come by and brought the Hundred Flowers Pill.

"Let me see it," said Princess Xinyang.

She had seen the Protecting Heart Pill before, so naturally, she wanted to see the Hundred Flowers Pill that the Crown Princess had brought.

Yujin picked up the bottle of Hundred Flowers Pill from the table, "Eh?" _{freёwebnovel.com}

"What’s wrong?" asked Princess Xinyang.

"Why is there a cloth strip on the bottle? There are words on it, too."

Gu Jiao had used a fine charcoal pencil to write, which was not as unpleasant as a brushstroke, though still not particularly elegant.

To someone like Yujin, who came from a scholarly household, honestly, such writing was somewhat sore to the eyes.

However, what really puzzled Yujin was not the writing itself.

Princess Xinyang looked at the bottle in her hand and asked, "Was there no cloth strip before?"
