When Princess Shu heard there was hope, her eyes lit up.
"Please, Divine Doctor, speak frankly. Whatever the difficulty, I will do my utmost to resolve it."
Sima Han sighed. "Recently, locusts have been running rampant, devouring crops and medicinal herb fields. The prescription requires a rare ingredient called 'Pu Liangzi.' It has a lustrous, yellow, jade-like appearance and blooms with a single, delicate white flower just as winter approaches. This flower is the part used for medicine. It typically takes three hundred flowers to produce just two taels of Pu Liangzi."
