“Dongfang Qi?”
Feng Bailing recognized the visitor.
“You are not Feng Sanwu! How come you are here?”
Upon a closer look, the person revealed a smirk. It was Feng Bailing.
“Xinglin Spring belongs to the Princess’ Mansion, my mother gave it to me as part of my dowry.”
Dongfang Qi was the third son of Emperor Yongye, one of Feng Bailing’s cousins.
The old Feng Bailing always disliked him.
However, this man, he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
When Feng Luochen was imprisoned, none of the princes cared, only he pleaded for Feng Luochen before Emperor Yongye.
Since her return from the Other Manor, Feng Bailing had yet to see him, having heard that he was ill and resting at home.
But the way he looked robust and vital, he didn’t seem ill at all.
“Xinglin Spring is yours? Since we’re relatives, compensate me with one thousand taels for selling me fake Polygonum multiflorum, and I’ll let it go.”
Dongfang Qi sat arrogantly on the counter, furious and pointing at his own head.
Dongfang Qi was only in his twenties, but his hair had already turned grey and white, making him look like an elderly man.
No wonder he hadn’t been seen outside recently; it was because his hair had turned white.
“Third Prince, what you have is premature white hair, Polygonum multiflorum won’t work for that.”
Feng Bailing sneered as she looked at the Third Prince’s head.
“You either compensate me, or I will complain to Father Emperor. By then, it won’t just be this ruined shop that’s in trouble, but the Princess’ Mansion might be convicted of deceiving and disrespect.”
Dongfang Qi spat bitterly, not understanding what cursed him to suddenly start growing white hair at such a young age. He had bought Polygonum multiflorum and ate it, but it didn’t work at all, and his white hair got even worse.
The mansion physician examined it and declared that what he consumed was not Polygonum multiflorum at all, but merely a piece of wood carving.
“Third cousin, I don’t have one thousand taels. However, I do have a method that can turn your hair black overnight.”
Premature white hair isn’t hard to cure. It seemed like Dongfang Qi’s was sudden, probably due to a deficiency in trace elements. The right medicine along with dietary therapy could solve it in a few months.
“Do you truly have a way?”
Dongfang Qi was skeptical.
“Just wait a moment, I’ll do as I said. However, the costs of damages you’ve caused tonight, including to my shop and its people, you’ll have to cover as well.”
Before Feng Bailing could finish, Dongfang Qi waved his hand.
“If you can cure it, forget about the costs, I, Dongfang Qi, will owe you a huge favor. But if you fail, after tonight, Chu City shall have no Xinglin Spring shop.”
Feng Bailing nodded her head and turned to enter the backyard of Xinglin Spring, mentally repeating a few words and opening the second layer of the emergency kit.
But upon opening it, she was stunned; the item she needed wasn’t in the second layer of the emergency kit.
Feng Bailing, unfazed, closed her eyes and recited a few sentences again. When she reopened it, the kit remained the same as before.
It was clear that the emergency kit discriminated against who might use it.
Dugu Wu had held it for a while, and it created the specific medicine for him.
Yet it completely ignored what she urgently needed.
Feng Bailing remembered, back in the warzone, she could produce any medicine required from the kit. Why had it gone into a rebellious phase after she was reborn?
Feng Bailing pondered the recent details and quickly thought of some facts she had overlooked.
In the warzone, she could always get supplies and medicine due to the urgency—a slight delay could mean the loss of lives.
However, after returning to Great Chu, her uses of the emergency kit were not always immediate. The blood pressure medicine for Dongfang Lianhua was for a life-saving purpose, and the kit cooperated by providing it.
“I’ve relied on you too much and forgot the true heart of a physician. Indeed, I should not have. But this time, it is an emergency, an exception.”
Feng Bailing thought to herself.
She opened the emergency kit once more, and this time, in the second layer, there appeared a black hair cream.
Seeing Feng Bailing return with no medicine but a bottle of strange cream, Dongfang Qi was full of suspicion.
“Feng Sanwu, let me tell you, if you give me fake medicine again, I will smash your shop.”
Dongfang Qi said unfriendly.
Feng Bailing prepared hot water and had someone wash Dongfang Qi’s hair first before she personally took action.
Dongfang Qi, puzzled, watched these curiosities and suppressed his irritation, allowing Feng Bailing to apply the treatment to his head.
Half an hour later, Dongfang Qi was growing impatient. Only then did Feng Bailing let him wash his hair.
“Feng Sanwu, don’t think that by applying ink to my head, you can cover my white hair. I’ve tried everything, sesame seeds, Polygonum multiflorum soaked in alcohol…”
Dongfang Qi resigned to his fate.
But as soon as his hair was dried, his eyeballs nearly popped out.

“Black? It’s actually black!”
Dongfang Qi jumped up excitedly, touching his hair, which didn’t fade and was even blacker than before.
“Congratulations, third cousin, oh, I should call you younger cousin now, you look truly young.”
Feng Bailing flattered.
“Feng Sanwu, you’ve got some skill. That thing just now, get me ten or eight bottles of it.”
Dongfang Qi, ecstatic, casually pulled out a stack of silver notes and slapped them on the counter.
“The cream isn’t difficult to make, but you won’t need it in the future. When you return home, swap your eating utensils for copper ones, eat more animal liver regularly, along with apricots, nuts, and mushrooms, and your hair will recover in three months.”
Feng Bailing diagnosed that Dongfang Qi was deficient in trace elements, particularly copper. The foods she recommended were rich in copper.
The hair cream, however, gave her an idea; she could concoct a natural hair cream from medicinal herbs and sell it at Xinglin Spring.
“Now that the medicine has cured you, you may leave, no need to stay as we close up.”
Feng Bailing was in a hurry to return home to see Feng Xiaoli.
A beaming Dongfang Qi left behind a silver note worth one hundred taels and walked away.
Su Wang instructed the staff to prepare for closing and picked up the one hundred taels. But when Su Wang opened the cashbox, he broke out in a cold sweat.
“Boss, the silver is gone.”
He calculated clearly; Xinglin Spring had one thousand taels of silver remaining. Yet during the commotion caused by Dongfang Qi, the silver flew away.
The cashbox was locked, and nobody had approached it just now. Could the one thousand taels have flown away on its own?
