"Since that is the case, what other requests do you have? Go ahead and speak."
"I have no other requests. I only hope Your Majesty will properly arrange the medical books I brought."
"That is easily done. Fusu, set aside a separate room for the Medical Fairy to study her books. In addition, assign a few maidservants to attend to the Medical Fairy's daily needs." With a wave of his hand, Ying Zheng was ready to settle the matter.
Duanmu Rong shook her head. "There is no need. This commoner woman prefers to fend for herself and is unaccustomed to being attended by others. Besides, too many people can easily breed distraction and unrest, which would hinder the research into the elixir of immortality."
Ying Zheng actually hesitated for a moment, but in the end, the elixir of immortality won out. He agreed, "Then I shall assign you one rough maidservant. When she has nothing to do, she can remain in the outer courtyard, so she will not disturb the Medical Fairy. Do not refuse any further. It is settled. Also, draft an edict. From this day forward, confer upon the Medical Fairy the title of Chief Medical Woman of the palace. Very well, if there is nothing else, you may all withdraw."
Li raised his head and said, "Father Emperor, there is another person whose contribution to the successful destruction of the Mohist Mechanism City cannot be overlooked."
"Who?"
"The head of the Gongshu Family, masters of the Dominance Mechanism Arts—Gongshu Chou." Li had not forgotten what he intended to say.
"Oh." Ying Zheng responded indifferently. "In that case, have the Gongshu Family work together with the Yin-Yang School to construct the Mirage Tower that the Empire plans to build."
To Li, those words were undoubtedly an unexpected delight.
