Chapter 23 Seeing Through the Trick
After Chu Liangrao was released from the ground restraint, the first thing he did was to take Mother Du and Ding Xiang out.When Chu Chaoyang saw that Chu Liangrao had just regained his freedom, he couldn't sit still and wanted to run outside. He couldn't rest assured, so he sent four guards to follow, which made Du Mama and Ding Xiang feel pressured.Chu Liangrao himself doesn't care, just follow, safety is more important than anything else, it's good that these guards don't make noise.

As soon as he went to the street, Chu Liangrao felt that the house that he usually felt so hot was like a paradise, the outside was completely like a big stove, even in the sedan chair, he couldn't stop sweating like rain.Picking up the fan and fanning it vigorously a few times, Chu Liangrao opened the curtain and asked, "Ding Xiang, haven't you arrived yet?"

"It's almost there." Ding Xiang pointed forward, "That's right there."

Following the direction of Ding Xiang's finger, Chu Liangrao saw the signboard of the pharmacy, and put down the curtain.

The pharmacy was not open today, Ding Xiang stepped forward to call for the door, and Chu Liangrao stepped out of the sedan chair while holding Mama Du's hand.Seeing that the four bearers were panting and sweating profusely, Chu Liangrao blushed and asked Mother Du to give them rewards.Sitting in the sedan chair by himself is not as hardworking as these four laborers, and they still complain, it really shouldn't be.

After receiving the reward, the four bearers carried the sedan chair and hid in the shade.

Ding Xiang patted on the door for a long time before Dr. Jiang came to open the door. When he saw Ding Xiang, he greeted him with a smile, then looked aside, his knees softened and he knelt down: "Greetings to the Princess."

This doctor has good eyesight, Chu Liangrao wiped his sweat with the handkerchief, and said, "Get up."

Dr. Jiang hurriedly opened the door panel and invited Chu Liangrao to go in. Four guards followed behind Chu Liangrao.

Ding Xiang looked around and asked, "Doctor, where is my father?"

"Zhu Xiucai went to line up to buy water." Dr. Jiang sighed, "Nowadays, you can't buy water even if you have money." After finishing speaking, he stared at Chu Liangrao.

Chu Liangrao was inexplicable for a while, did flowers bloom on his face?

Mother Du frowned. She used to think that Dr. Jiang was a sensible person, but now she is staring at her own princess like this, without weighing her own proportions.Thinking about it, she took a step forward and turned her body to block Chu Liangrao's face.

Afterwards, Dr. Jiang talked about how difficult he was, how he couldn't get enough to eat, and had to take care of Zhu Xiucai, so he really couldn't live on.

At this point, Chu Liangrao could tell that Dr. Jiang regarded himself as a good person who gave warmth, and complaining like this was nothing more than wanting her to help.He is also a majestic princess, so it is natural to want to help someone, but Chu Liangrao does not like Doctor Jiang very much.

Originally, when she heard Ding Xiang's respect for Dr. Jiang, she thought he was an upright person. Now that she had woken up, if she was really a doctor with the heart of a doctor's parents, how could she charge Ding Xiang's medical expenses? I am afraid that Ding Xiang will be slaughtered by this person, and seeing that there is no money to squeeze, it is difficult for Zhu Xiucai to heal. Let Zhu Xiucai worship himself as a benefactor.

Doctor Jiang knew that Ding Xiang was working in the palace, so he took in Zhu Xiucai, and he was also preparing to catch big fish with a long line.No, the seven or eight taels of silver that I asked Mama Du to pay before was in line with Dr. Jiang's wishes. Now that the Lord is here, can he focus on making money?The so-called difficulties are probably fabricated. You must know that although the price for Ding Xiang to sell herself into the palace is not high, the price for that house is not low. Thinking of making tea to entertain people?

Dr. Jiang didn't know that Chu Liangrao saw through him in just a short moment, and he was still feeling emotional: "Fortunately, there are kind-hearted people. The owner of the sugar store said that no one buys his sugar now, so he lowered the price." They sold me a lot, but I don’t know if this candy can’t be eaten as food, so how can I save my life?”

Chu Liangrao, who had already sounded the alarm in his heart, would not fall into the trap, propped his chin with one hand and said, "It's just a few jokes when I'm greedy."

Dr. Jiang was very disappointed when he heard this. He thought that Chu Liangrao, as the princess, would know some inside information. Thanks to his own blood, he bought a lot and piled them up, thinking that he would sell them at a high price when someone really needed them. I thought it was just a joke.If the day continues like this, I'm afraid it will turn into syrup. For a while, Dr. Jiang's face is mournful, and it's a bit of a fake show.

Chu Liangrao calmly took Doctor Jiang's expression into his eyes, and asked, "My princess has been greedy for the past few days, how many candies have you bought?"

After hearing this, Dr. Jiang's face glowed with light, and he said, "It's all in the backyard."

"Go and have a look." Chu Liangrao put on an appearance of a big boss, casually pointed to a guard, and asked him to go to the backyard to watch.

The man read it and reported back: "There are four full baskets."

"So much." Chu Liangrao frowned and said, "Where can I finish eating?"

Dr. Jiang was not willing to let go of this opportunity to recover the loss and said: "It's because the candy seller said they couldn't sell it, so they sold it to me."

"I heard you said you bought it at a low price?" Chu Liangrao tilted his head slightly.

"That's right, the whole four baskets only cost one tael of silver." Dr. Jiang replied after consideration.

Obviously, no matter how much the value of these candies depreciated, they would not be available for a tael of silver. Dr. Jiang said that he thought he was perfect, but he didn't know that this obvious loophole made Ding Xiang feel that something was wrong.

But Chu Liangrao clapped his hands and said: "There is such a cheap thing, Mother Du, give me the money." After speaking, she asked slightly hesitantly, "Doctor, you don't blame this princess for being good to others, do you? "

The second time I heard that Ding Xiang, who Chu Liangrao called himself "the master of the princess", felt even more puzzled. Her own princess has always been gentle and amiable, but today she puts her airs higher than anyone else.Looking at Dr. Jiang again, he said with a flattering smile on his face: "How could it be that the Princess is able to take a fancy to these things, which is also the villain's blessing."

Chu Liangrao gave a look of "you are sensible", and asked Mama Du to give the money. Mama Du took out the money bag, and Dr. Jiang's eyes began to shine.Afterwards, Mama Du poured out the money in the purse, and the sum of all the bits and pieces of silver was no more than two taels. She said apologetically, "I really don't bring much today."

Dr. Jiang thought that this mother has no money, so could it be that the princess has no money, so he pretended to be magnanimous and said: "Mom, what are you talking about, two liang of silver is already a lot, besides, how can the young one How about taking advantage of the princess? Please ask mother to take back this much money."

"Yes, mother." Chu Liangrao said, "Since Dr. Jiang is so clear about righteousness, you can accept it. Dr. Jiang is so upright, giving him money would be an insult to him."

Mother Du was puzzled for a while, but she still collected the extra money after hearing the words.

Dr. Jiang was almost bleed internally, but Chu Liangrao praised him so much, he had no choice but to smash his teeth and swallow blood, and he had to put on a humble expression and said: "The princess is really flattering the villain, Dare not to dare to be."
