Chapter 1538: Foolish ruler in the way: How many times do you want to be assassinated? (Part 22)
A small stove, Luo Qing Chen was beside it with a big quilt, drinking tea and having dessert while listening to Xiao Tian’s story.
As expected, most people were born to suffer.
Xiao Tian’s parents ran a pharmacy and even if their family background wasn’t good, they weren’t stingy about helping people.
Then because he was tricked, he became bankrupt and lost his home.
Xiao Tian’s mother ran away with another man and her father was bedridden from this blow, finally he couldn’t save his own life.
Then Xiao Tian sold herself to bury her father, selling herself into a rich family as a maid. She didn’t know that the lady she served was savage and liked to beat people!
She was hit at random times and almost all the maids in the mansion were covered in wounds.
Luo Qing Chen looked at the bruises on her body and knitted her brows.
“Follow me from now on!” Luo Qing Chen suddenly gave her a cup of warm tea, “Remember to call me big sister Xiao Qing!”
“......” Xiao Tian quickly shook her head, “This servant knows you are her highness, this servant doesn’t dare!”
“So you want to go against my orders?”
“I......”
“Alright, it’s decided.” Luo Qing Chen took care of her own tea as she asked, “Your parents were doctors, then you.....”
Xiao Tian was surprised before she understood Luo Qing Chen’s meaning and gave a nod, “I know a bit of medicine!”
Luo Qing Chen gave a snap, “Very good!”
–
When she slept that night, Luo Qing Chen took Xiao Hei out of her personal space and asked it to plant the rare medicine on the right half of the open land during the night.
The seeds for these herbs were exchanged for from the system. The price of the shop was cheap, but these were all extremely rare herbs in this world.
Even the imperial doctors had only seen these herbs in books and had never personally seen them before.
She didn’t plant it at first because she only knew a bit about medicine and although she exchanged for it, she didn’t want to waste it.
Now that Xiao Tian was here, she felt like her plan would come true!
The next morning, Luo Qing Chen was woken up by the scent of flowers and a few pink petals floated in through the door.
She slowly opened her eyes and she saw a garden in full bloom. The scattered sunlight shone down on the small sprouts and even though it was winter, they were full of life.
The system’s seeds were different from normal seeds, they grew several times faster than normal seeds.
The fastest growing ones were the peach blossoms. There were more than ten of them already in bloom and although they weren’t tall, they were fully blooming.
“Wa!” Xiao Tian looked at this scene in disbelief as her eyes almost popped out.
Luo Qing Chen said with a laugh, “It’s time to open our doors for business.”
In winter, most of the flowers in the royal garden had withered. The only thing left were the winter plum, but just using its leaves for tea was just too simple.
Most people who worked in the imperial palace were smart, so high risks gave high rewards and their salaries weren’t low.
Then there were the concubines and harem girls. Although Lin Nan Yi never favoured them, he did give them quite a bit.
After all, they spent their youth in the palace without love, Lin Nan Yi at least felt that he shouldn’t let them worry about their livelihoods.
Although this was her guess, she felt that it was 90% correct.
