The rest…

“Just let them stay at their current place for the time being and wait for my further instructions.”

“Yes, City Lord.”

She still had to discuss this matter with Xiao Jin.

At night, when Su Ying returned to the palace, Uncle Hea and the others had already prepared the food.

In the palace, there was a large dining hall that could accommodate at least a hundred people.

Su Ying led the two children to the chairs and sat down, but she saw Aunt Zhao and the others standing at the side and they did not step forward.

“Aunt Zhao, what are you guys waiting for? Sit down and eat.”

Bai Shuang glanced at Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao understood and stepped forward to say, “City Lord, from now on, we servants will not be able to eat at the same table as City Lord.”

“Why?” Su Ying frowned.

Aunt Zhao smiled and said, “In the past, when we were in the Prince’s Residence or the Su Residence, there was no such practice. Later, it was only after the City Lord indulged us that we allowed ourselves to take this liberty. But now it’s different. The City Lord has to rule over all, so naturally, there have to be rules. The City Lord can’t break the rules because of us.”

“Yes, City Lord. We also have a place to eat in the rear hall,” Bai Shuang chimed in.

“All of you insist on doing this?” There was no visible change in emotions on Su Ying’s face.

The few of them nodded firmly.

“Fine. It’s up to you, but you can’t let us spend our days too forlornly during the New Year.”

Aunt Zhao let out a sigh of relief when she saw Su Ying was agreeable. If Su Ying were to get into a conflict with them, they wouldn’t be able to do anything.

“Alright.”

After Su Ying sat down on the chair, she allowed Aunt Zhao and the others to go off and have their meals.

“Mother, aren’t Grandma Zhao and the others going to eat with us?” Ling did not quite understand what they were talking about just now.

However, the older toddler Ji understood. “Ling, Grandma Zhao and the others have their own place to eat.”

The younger toddler Ling, who was used to having a lively atmosphere, said dejectedly, “Oh, but 1 want to be with them.”

“When the New Year comes, we’ll eat together. Let’s eat first.”

In fact, Su Ying wasn’t used to it either, but she would have to give up certain things if she insisted on proceeding with other things.

When Xiao Jin walked in, Su Ying had just scooped a bowl of soup each for Ji and Ling. When he saw that there were only a few of them at the dining table, he asked in bafflement, “Where’s Aunt Zhao and the others?”

“They said that they won’t eat with us in the future. They said that they want me to set the rules.”

Xiao Jin was slightly surprised, but he quickly understood. In this aspect, he was able to accept it faster than Su Ying.

“Mm-hmm.”

Xiao Jin sat down on a chair and picked up his chopsticks. They didn’t speak throughout the meal. Everyone was somewhat quiet, probably because they weren’t used to eating with so few people.

After eating their fill, the green-robed men cleared the tableware away.

It was still early, so the older toddler Ji and the younger toddler Ling went to play with Lin Sheng.

“What do you plan to do with those fairly big children in the city now?” Su Ying wanted to hear Xiao Jin’s opinion.

“Let them study with Chu Yun first. The older ones can study while learning other skills. Let them learn how to be humans first.”

Apart from the children who had just been brought back this year, this group of children had not been turned into puppets yet because they had not stayed in Sky Alpha City for long. In addition, they were still young and could study with Chu Yun without any problem. It would not be too late to make specific plans when they were older.

However, those children who had been trained for several years were gradually turning into puppets. The first thing to do was to remove the puppet effect from them before further plans could be made for them.

“Their bodies have been immersed in poison for many years. It’s very unlikely for them to change back completely.”

It wasn’t that Su Ying didn’t want to, but it was very difficult. In fact, it was extremely difficult because the poison had already penetrated deep into their bones. This poison would corrode their nerves to a large extent, gradually turning them into submissive puppets. She suspected that the reason Wei Ji still had the consciousness to resist back then was very likely she didn’t drink the so-called holy water at all. This was because Su Ying discovered that there was no poison in her blood.

“I’ll do what 1 can. If they are destined to be puppets, then I’ll train them into army troops and make them the strongest barrier of Sky Alpha City.”

Su Ying nodded. She agreed with this approach.

“City Lord, Orange Guardian of the medicine-production warehouse requests an audience.” The Green Guardian’s voice rang out from outside the hall.

“Medicine – production warehouse?”

Su Ying asked the visitor to come in.

The Orange Guardian crawled into the main hall and knelt down beside Su Ying’s feet.

“City Lord.”

Su Ying watched as he crawled forward, and after holding back initially, she couldn’t contain herself anymore and said, “In the future, just walk in to give your greetings.”

“Yes, City Lord.”

“What is it?”

The orange-robed man stood up and said, “City Lord, another batch of new medicine has been produced in the medicine-production warehouse. Please inspect and accept it.”

Su Ying turned to look at the Green Guardian. “What’s with this medicine-production warehouse? How come I have never heard of this place before?”

“City Lord, the medicine-production warehouse has always been producing medical drugs and does not get involved in other matters. The people in the medicine-production warehouse will produce a batch of new drugs every month and send them to Her Majesty, which Her Majesty will then sell.”

Su Ying asked the Orange Guardian to bring all the drugs that had been prepared.

Many orange-robed men walked in carrying large wooden boxes.

Su Ying counted and found that there were about seven or eight boxes. The Orange Guardian opened the boxes, revealing rows of properly packed ceramic bottles inside.

She stood up and walked to the box. After picking up a ceramic bottle, she began examining it. There was a piece of paper pasted on the ceramic bottle. On it were written in detail the use of the medicine, the dos and don’ts as well as how the medicine should be taken.

Xiao Jin walked forward and took a bottle of medicine to take a look. “Ginseng Resurrection Pill, Tri-Element Relief Treasure Pill…”

These were all relatively precious medicines. Xiao Jin had even used two of them in the past. He remembered that some medicines could not be bought in the Chu State at that time.

“What channels did she use to sell these drugs?”

“There will be a specific person who comes to collect these finished products once a month,” said the Green Guardian.

“Who will make the deal? How much are the medicines sold for?”

“Her Majesty is the one making the transaction, and 1 don’t know the price either.”

Xiao Jin looked at the ceramic bottle in his hand. “This Ginseng Resurrection Pill can be sold for more than a hundred taels of silver in the Chu State. Moreover, it’s very difficult to buy this.”

Su Ying looked at the boxes on the ground. There were so many of them. Wouldn’t they be able to make a lot of money with just one transaction?

Su Ying looked at the Orange Guardian. “You guys are proficient in medicine production? How did you concoct these medicines?”

The Green Guardian answered for the Orange Guardian, “City Lord, they’ve been staying in the medicine-production warehouse all this time. There is someone teaching them.”

Su Ying stood up eagerly. “Bring me there to take a look.”

“It’s already so late. It’s the same if we go tomorrow.” Xiao Jin stopped Su Ying when he saw that she was about to leave.

However, Su Ying wanted to find out immediately. “It shouldn’t be far. I’ll be right back.”

Xiao Jin had no choice but to let the other green-robed men carry the medicine boxes to the side hall.

The medicine-production warehouse was indeed not far from the palace. It was in an inconspicuous courtyard outside the palace.

On the gate outside the courtyard, there were big words written on the wall, “Medicine-production Warehouse.”

As soon as Su Ying got close, she smelled a strong medicinal scent in the air..
