Detoxification (4)

Xie Xuanchen tactfully kept quiet.

Mu Mingtang continued as she didn’t wait for his reaction, “Speaking of fragrance, natural ones are still the best. The smell of melons and fruits is lively and refreshing, also no matter how good the herbs are used for incense, they still could not compare to these fruity smells.”

Xie Xuanchen finally understood what Mu Mingtang was up to.

“From now on, don’t use the herbs for incensing the mansion. Just place fresh melons and fruits around. Oh~ what a pleasant smell…” Mu Mingtang ordered the maids present in the dining room.

The maids didn’t understand what the princess wanted to do, so they looked at each other in dismay. Not daring to refute, they could only consent.

“Yes, princess”

“You should also use this fruity fragrance for clothes as well. The ones smoked in a smoker always have a smell of fire. From now on, they will be smoked with fruits’ fragrance, for winter use oranges and in summer use apples, so that the fruity flavour will slowly soak into the clothes, without those artificially extracted scented incense.”

‘This… is too difficult. How much melon and fruit would be needed to soak clothes with the smell of fruits? What more apples and oranges… After smoking for an entire night, all the good fruits would be thrown away the next day. Over the years, how much money would be needed just for smoking clothes? How extravagant!’ All the maids had the same thoughts in their heart.

Even though it was too extravagant, the maids had to listen to their mistress, and since even Prince An said nothing, so how dared they, the mere servants, raise questions against the princess.

Mu Mingtang silently watched as the maids removed the incense burner and smoker cage from the dining room.

Sure enough, after a while, the kitchen sent over lots of fresh fruits, which they had just brought from the market.

This was not just any ordinary mansion, but Prince An’s mansion, so the servants paid more attention to buying high quality fresh fruits. They filled large containers with fresh fruits, and once the smell began to fade, the maids immediately replaced them with the next batch of fruits.

At noon, Mu Mingtang watched helplessly as a large pot of intact fruit was removed and thrown away. Her heart ached, but she couldn’t say anything about it, as she had to pretend to be arrogant and reckless. As soon as the people left, Mu Mingtang pulled Xie Xuanchen and complained: “What should I do? I feel so distressed. If this goes on, wouldn’t we need to change the fruit bowls four or five times a day?”

Xie Xuanchen calmly comforted her: “It’s okay, it doesn’t cost much.”

Mu Mingtang glared at him hard, and Xie Xuanchen had no choice but to change his words: “They’re changing the fruit so many times because it’s just the first day, we won’t need to change it so frequently after the house is filled with the fruity scent. By then, twice a day should be enough.”

After speaking, Xie Xuanchen expressed his admiration for Mu Mingtang’s quick witted idea: “Sure enough, you have found a way on your own. This idea is good. Fresh melons and fruits would need to be thrown away every day, and with how things are right now, they won’t be able to do anything.”

“Don’t talk about it.” Mu Mingtang’s heart would ache every time she thought about wasting so much food, “Throwing it twice a day… still makes me feel distress.”

But what was more important needed to be handled, so they had to solve the problem with Wuyufei.

The little Taoist, who was urged by Mu Mingtang continuously for several days, finally found the manuscript of his master from back then.

“I went through my master’s manuscripts all these days, and also read medical books related to them. Princess An, it seems like I have finally found something.”

“What is it?”

“Use one’s own way to treat one’s body.” The little Taoist said, “It can also be called fighting poison with poison.”
