Chapter 004 First Meeting 4
The next day, I sent the cleaned medicine jar to the pharmacy. Song Yi ordered to cook medicine at the door. When he saw me, he took the basket in my hand with a smile and put the medicine jars one by one by himself. I didn't know what to do with his behavior, so I had to stand still and watch.
I smelled the fragrance of medicine in my nose. I turned my head and saw that the boiled medicine jar was bursting out with heat, while the doctor who cooked the medicine was still muffled by the fan and didn't pay attention to the medicine jar at all. I stepped forward a few times, grabbed his fan and slowly fanned it on the medicine jar. For a moment, the medicine jar gradually calmed down and cooked the medicine steadily.
The medical assistant was pushed away by me. Seeing that the medicine jar was magnificent and flattened by me, he stood aside with great embarrassment. I stuffed the fan back into the hands of the doctor, who was stunned and bowed his head slightly to salute. I squeezed my lips and nodded with a polite smile. Looking back, I saw Song Yi looking at me. I showed my blessing. He strode over and said, "In a few days, I will be promoted. Do you want to be an official or a servant?"
There is no difference between the two for me. I just find a way to live in the palace. Everything I do is the same, and I will do everything with my heart. I shook my head and he suddenly laughed, "Why don't you come to my pharmacy!"
Yes, I am a little familiar with medicinal materials, and it will be a good choice under the pharmacy. I nodded, and Song Yi laughed even more. Song Yi had other things to deal with. He told me not to turn into another room. After Song Yi left, I looked at the doctor who cooked the medicine and asked casually, "Who is the medicine for?" The doctor said, "That's for the prince." I still smelled the medicine in my nose, and I felt inexplicable and frowned slightly, but the doctor explained in a panic: "The prince and the king of Qin returned after the war, which inadvertently provoked the wind chill."
When I came to the Shang Pharmacy along the road, I was meeting Grandpa Xu. He seemed to have something urgent and gave me a brocade box and asked me to present it to the prince with my own hands. When I heard that the medicine was for the prince, I said that I would go with the doctor. I have never been to the East Palace, and I don't know where the prince will be. The doctor looked at me, paused his words, and seemed reluctantly to respond.
I followed the doctor to the East Palace. At the door, I saw that the medicine was delivered, and I also knew the doctor, so I let us in. The East Palace is very large and majestic. It took a few detours and several pavilions to get to the prince's study. We stopped slightly in front of the study, and we still smelled the smell of medicine. I suddenly wondered why the smell of medicine in the medicine bowl was not cold. Doubtful, the door opened, the doctor stepped in, and I waited at the door. But this wait made me very anxious. The doctor was careless when he just decocted the medicine. Shouldn't he have fried the medicine wrong?
Thinking of this, I stepped into the study and saw a man in purple in front of the table who took the medicine bowl to put it to his mouth. I hurried forward and hurriedly grabbed the medicine bowl. The brown medicine immediately sprinkled an arc on the table and wet half of the book.
I was so bold that I held the medicine bowl in my arms, and my legs trembled slightly. I knelt on the ground: "Prince, this medicine can't cure the wind and cold. I'm afraid the doctor will inadvertently decoct the wrong medicine. Please calm down your anger."
The doctor also "ploped" and knelt on the ground: "Prince, this is the daughter who has just entered the palace. If you don't understand it, you will frame me."
He didn't dare to look up, but only heard Taizi shake the book sprinkled with medicine and put it aside.
"It doesn't matter. You fry another bowl." The prince said angrily.
I don't know who he refers to, but I only heard the doctor next to me respond and retreat, and I also trembled and stood up to retreat. Unexpectedly, a sentence came from the top: "You stay." I lowered my legs again and continued to bow my head and kneel on the ground.
"You wet my book." A cold word.
"The maidservant is willing to accept the crime." If you offend the prince so much, even if you don't die, I'm afraid there will be a board.
A figure came in front of me and clamped my chin with one hand, forcing me to look up. Looking at the last face, I was a little surprised. Prince Li Jiancheng looked a little similar to Li Shimin, the king of Qin. Li Shimin's eyebrows were a little more heroic than him, and his eyes were warmer than him.
Li Jiancheng clamped my chin and stared at me for a long time. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "Do you think the doctor didn't frying the cold medicine? How can you, an ordinary maid, know more about medicine than the people of the pharmacy? How can I believe you?
I didn't dare to move, so I had to straighten my chin and tremble and said, "Before I enter the palace, there are many medicinal herbs at home, and I know a little about it."
Li Jiancheng loosened my chin and raised his hand to roll up his left sleeve, revealing a palm-wide knife mark. I suddenly remembered that although the smell of the medicine is not a cure for wind and cold, it can indeed heal wounds. However, since he knew, the doctor knew, and even Song Yi knew, why didn't he directly say it was a medicine instead of a cold medicine? Among them, there must be articles that cannot be leaked.
"In that case. Just now, the cloth was removed, and the doctor left. Come and take the medicine. With that, he sat back at his desk, leaned his injured hand on the handle of the chair, and looked up and closed his eyes.
I gently went to his table and saw a small box under my feet. I opened it, which contained ointment and cloth for wrapping the wound. I knelt on his side, held his arm with one hand, took some ointment with cotton in the other, and gently smeared it on his wound.
This wound doesn't look like an old wound. It has been almost a month since I returned after the war, and this wound should have been up recently. Has there ever been an assassin in the palace? Thinking of this, his hands did not tremble, and the people above moved. Seeing that he didn't say anything, I continued to apply medicine and thought to myself. The assassin's words were quickly rejected by me, which is really out of the logic of the palace. With doubts in his heart, he wrapped his arm and stood aside.
Li Jiancheng put down his sleeves and turned his head to look at me: "Do you know what happened today? I can kill you immediately."
"I don't think the prince will." I told the truth from the bottom of my heart.
"How do you say this?" Li Jiancheng leaned against the chair and looked at me. He couldn't tell any expression. "Little girl, no one asked about it. Why do you think I won't kill you?"
"A few days ago, the slave maidservant heard the palace saying that a slave stole the prince's Motai. After being found by the prince, he not only did not investigate, but also found difficulties in his family and called someone to send silver two to his home, which was very generous."
"In this way, killing you and I am extremely evil?" Li Jiancheng asked rhetorically and suddenly smiled.
I secretly glanced at him, and he lowered his head and said, "Today's events should not be spread."
"Yes." I bowed my head and felt that he was still looking at me. He raised his eyes slightly and couldn't help glancing at his deep eyes in panic. A man came in at the door. The doctor came back from the medicine and respectfully brought the medicine bowl to Li Jiancheng. He held the medicine bowl in one hand and frowned to finish the medicine. I took out the box given to me by Mr. Xu and respectfully handed it to him: "Mr. Xu ordered the maidservant to present it to the prince himself."
"Hmm." Li Jiancheng took the brocade box and put it on the table casually.
Back to the court, I was meeting Nian'er. Nian'er wiped the sweat on my forehead and looked at me strangely. I sighed and said that I went to the East Palace. When I saw Prince Li, I almost got a book or died. Fortunately, he is kind and doesn't care about me, but I'm still sweating nervously. Nian'er listened and pulled me to a place where there was no one.
"Li Qian is because the prince was punished by Mother Chen." Nian'er told me.
Thinking of Mother Chen's scolding Liqian. Li Qian won't do what Mama Chen said, I think. But when I saw Li Jiancheng again today, I didn't think he would embarrass this weak woman. No one knows the reason for this matter. It is a secret in their hearts and has become a secret in this matter. Only Li Qian, or Prince Li Jiancheng, can tell who committed whom. In the eyes of outsiders, it must be concluded that Li Qian did this. I'm afraid that from this time on, no one will believe what a woman who has just entered the palace said. All the spearheads can only be pointed at her, and there is only one rumor in the court: Li Qian seduced the prince.
Pass the assessment and will soon be promoted. Hearing from Nian'er, M Mother Chen didn't like Li Qian. Li Qian really failed the assessment and could only stay in the court to do chores. Nian'er asked where I was going. I said Shang Pharmacy, and she would also follow Shang Pharmacy. Indeed, I have the best relationship with Nian'er in this court, so that I can have a care in the future.
That day, Xu Gong recruited the girls who passed the assessment. We choose the women who choose Shangyao to stand in a row and wait for the Shangyao Bureau to choose people. There are four people who choose Shangyao this time. Each Shang Bureau can only choose one or two women at a time. If they can't choose, they will wait for another arrangement.
It is surprisingly quiet. The moon in May is as red as fire, with flowers and fragrance. Its flowering period is very long, like a woman's life, from flowers blooming to flowers fading, from gorgeous to gradually drooping. When she dies, a whole stubborn flower hangs on the branch until a gust of wind blows it helplessly. Xu Gong just walked back and forth and suddenly turned to meet a figure.
"Shang Yao Fengyu came so early?" With my father-in-law's sound, I looked up slightly and saw Song Yi coming this way with a smile.
"I wanted to find one or two little doctors, so I was in a hurry." His voice is very soft, like a gentle breeze in spring.
He picked from the left, and I was in the middle of the right. When I was close to me, I lowered my head slightly. And he stopped in front of me, as if he didn't know me. He suddenly leaned down slightly and was very close to me. I smelled the smell of medicine on his body, and my heart couldn't help beating a little faster, and his face was even hot by the slightly hot breath on his body. I dare not move, let alone look at him.
"Can you often come into contact with medicinal herbs?" He finally straightened up and asked. It turned out that he smelled my medicine again. He really pretended to know me.
"My father has a medicine shop at home. Occasionally, he helps and knows a little about medicinal herbs." I answered slowly, but I smiled secretly in my heart.
"Hmm." He answered and continued to walk to the right.
After a while, Grandpa Xu spoke. Mo Xiran, Gu Nian'er, belongs to the Shang Pharmacy. Medical envoy, appointed as a medical assistant.
I took a few steps forward and blessed Grandpa Xu with Nian'er. Eunuch Xu said "um" and we left with Song Yi. I raised my eyes and quietly looked at the person walking in front of me. His footsteps were neither fast nor slow, just in time to catch up. His bun was tied with a jade crown, his long black hair was draped over his shoulders, and the wind blew and floated.
