The emperor put the teacup heavily on the table, perhaps because he was shaking his hands, he did not control the strength well, and let the teacup hit the table hard.

He lowered his head and looked at Mu Tianxiang who was kneeling on the ground, thinking of what she had just said, but his thoughts went back to when he summoned Mu Wanqiu ten years ago.

As at the beginning, the woman who was holding the girl in her hand looked at him neither humbly nor arrogantly, and said softly to him: "If the emperor wants to save his life for a hundred years, don't eat this ginseng and chicken soup anymore." ”

"You say this, but there is a reason?" the emperor's thoughts were drawn back to the present, looking at Mu Tianxiang who was kneeling on the ground, and asked faintly.

"The folk girl heard that the emperor had the smell of fire dispersion, so she guessed that it should be the imperial doctor's prescription for the emperor to lower the fire, and this ginseng chicken soup is indeed a nourishing product, with the spleen and lungs, shengjin quenches thirst, calms the nerves, replenishes qi and blood, etc., the effect of making fire is very strong, and the function of the fire is just in conflict, and there is a taste of veratrol grass in this line of fire powder, which is indeed an anti-ginseng medicine, and the two are taken together, which is poisonous, so the people are the emperor, you don't want to eat this chicken soup again. ”

Mu Tianxiang explained like this, and the emperor just smiled after hearing this, and smiled at her suspiciously: "I don't know, you are a woman from a fragrant family, and you still understand pharmacology?"

"Back to the emperor's words, medicine, incense is the same origin, medicine can make incense, incense can also be used in medicine, the folk girl just learned more about the fragrance of the grass when she was learning incense, and also wrote down some medicinal properties by the way. As soon as Mu Tianxiang talked about his art industry, he seemed to be a different person, and his spirit was full of energy.

The emperor listened to Mu Tianxiang's words, his thoughts couldn't help but drift away, her reasons were also not much different from what Mu Wanqiu said back then, and his heart was indeed a little dull, and he shook his hand and said, "I know." Get up. ”

"Thank you, Emperor!" Hearing that the emperor had no intention of punishing him, Mu Tianxiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, slowly got up and stood aside, no longer seated.

"You said that I have written this down, and I will ask you again, are you sure about the incense?" The Emperor turned the conversation back to the worship a few days later.

Although it is a worship of ancestors, it is also a royal worship ceremony, and at the same time, the blessing is included in the ceremony, which can be regarded as praying for the ancestors to bless the Jingsheng Dynasty to be able to live and work in peace and contentment, which also means that he can do it in a stable position and serve the people.

Therefore, for him, this sacrifice is very important!

It is important that there is no room for half a spread cuò.

"Tianxiang will do it with all her might. Never disgrace the opportunity given by the emperor. Mu Tianxiang made a loud voice, making people feel confident and extraordinary, as if there was a feeling that she would go all out and complete her mission well.

The Emperor nodded and said, "I will wait for you to do it with all my might, but you must know that if you speak too slowly, if you can't achieve it." What will be the consequences, but you have to bear it. No one else will do it for you. ”

It seems to be unintentional, but every sentence reveals a warning.

As long as there is a problem with this festival, it is her Mu Tianxiang's responsibility.

"Don't blame me for this, you asked me to ask the Holy Decree to protect people, I didn't expect the Holy One to come in person. In another private room in the restaurant, Jing Ling held his head to avoid Yan Shaoting's cold gaze. Exonerate yourself.

Originally, when he saw that Master Huize and Mu's Xiangfang had negotiated this morning, he immediately returned to the palace, according to Yan Shaoting's plea, on the grounds of protecting the incense. Please protect the shogunate.

"The folk girl understands!" Mu Tianxiang said with her head down.

The purpose of the emperor's tour today has been achieved, so he waved his hand at her to signal that she could leave, Mu Tianxiang bowed his head and did not see it, standing in place and not understanding.

The chief eunuch behind the emperor coughed lightly and said softly: "There's nothing to do with you here, why don't you hurry up and retreat?"

Mu Tianxiang was startled, only to see that the emperor was shaking his hand at him as if he was tired, and immediately knelt on his knees: "The people's daughter Mu Tianxiang thanked the emperor for mentioning something! May my emperor be blessed." ”

After Mu Tianxiang thanked the emperor, in fact, he had the courage to ask the emperor for a thing, and then quietly retreated.

It wasn't until she went out that she suddenly remembered that there was another person in the room at that time, and she was so flustered that she forgot to see the identity of that person.

And after she stepped back, in the private room, the emperor took a sip of tea before turning to look at his side.

"You can see it today, and that's the person you have to take care of all your life. I believe you don't need to be reminded that you should know how to do it. ”

Sitting beside him was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, obviously only fifteen years old, but he was calm like an old man, sitting there expressionlessly, bowing his head and listening carefully to the emperor's words.

If you look closely, the young man's eyes faintly reveal a hint of joy and excitement.

"Erchen knows, and Emperor Xie mentions. The young man lowered his head, took away the inadvertent expression on his face, opened his mouth quietly, and finished speaking, but he had a little regret in his heart.

The man never looked up at him the whole time—

"Don't blame me for this, you asked me to ask the Holy Decree to protect people, I didn't expect the Holy One to come in person. In another private room in the restaurant, Jingling held his head to avoid Yan Shaoting's cold gaze and excused himself.

Originally, when he saw that Master Hui Ze and Mu's Xiangfang had negotiated this morning, he immediately returned to the palace and asked for the shogunate to be protected on the grounds of protecting the incense according to Yan Shaoting's plea.

How do you know that when the saint heard about this, he immediately ordered a large number of guards to be mobilized to raise the Mu Mansion, not to mention, but even went out on patrol to summon the young lady of the Mu family without permission.

"The saint personally summoned her, but I didn't expect that Miss Namu was really amazing, the shelf was big enough. Jingling playfully twisted his chin and exclaimed: "It seems that there should be a good show in the future." ”

He talked to himself, but Yan Shaoting didn't bother to pay attention to him, he frowned and pondered, until the emperor's roar came from the private room next door: "When are you going to hear it?"

Yan Shaoting glanced at him, suddenly jumped out of the window, and disappeared without a trace.

Jing Ling looked at the place where he disappeared and wanted to yell: "You were really gloating just now, didn't you?"

It's a pity that he couldn't shout, so he went out of the door with a wilted face and walked to the emperor's room next door.

――

Mu Tianxiang has been in a state of dissociation since he was in addition to the restaurant, and he felt that he was dreaming, but he didn't expect that he would have the honor to look at the face of the ancient emperor.

It wasn't until someone outside the sedan chair came to talk and the sedan chair stopped, and heard Yujin's shouting in his ears, Mu Tianxiang came back to his senses, opened the sedan curtain and glanced at Yujin: "What's wrong Yujin?"

"Miss, I met the guy from Xiangfang, and said that the shopkeeper Pei sent him to the house, and wanted to invite you to the shop, but I didn't expect to meet here. ”

Mu Tianxiang then remembered that he originally wanted to go to the shop, but he was suddenly summoned by the saint, thinking that there was nothing else to do now, it was better to go directly to the shop, and it happened that the distance was also very close, so he instructed the sedan chair man to put the sedan chair down.

After saying goodbye to the leader of Qin Liu, he thanked him by the way, and then followed behind the guy and went to Xiangfang.

When she arrived at Xiangfang, she saw that in addition to Pei Zongze, there was also Master Zhao, Mu Tianxiang hurriedly walked over to say hello, and then asked suspiciously: "Brother Pei, what are you looking for me?"

"It's not me, it's Master Zhao, I can't wait for the incense sacrifice, and I said that I want to discuss it with you. Pei Zongze pointed at Master Zhao and said with a smile.

"Miss, don't blame my old man for having a lot of things, I really see that more than half of the three days have passed, and I am really anxious, so I have to beg Shopkeeper Pei to invite you over. Look at this ......"

Master Zhao rubbed his hands uncomfortably, and said the reason for inviting her over with an embarrassed face.

Mu Tianxiang suddenly smiled and comforted: "Master Zhao, don't worry, I have thought of a way, I will explain it clearly to all the masters in a while, and ah, we don't only have three days now, but five days." ”

Mu Tianxiang opened his hand, stretched out five fingers and shook it in front of Master Zhao, with a smile on his face.

This is what she begged the emperor before going out, postponing the delivery of the incense by two days.

The reason why she begged for the extra two days was entirely because the method she came up with was impossible to complete without five days, so she had to come to these two days more at the risk of angering Long Yan.

The time was relaxed, and Mu Tianxiang's mood was naturally good, so he went to the incense garden in the backyard with Master Zhao.

Because the work of making incense in the incense workshop is concentrated in the morning, at this time, in the incense room, several masters are concentrating on developing fragrance mixing technology.

Mu Tianxiang shouted everyone into the ear room and explained his novelty to everyone.

It turned out that earlier, Mu Tianxiang saw the picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix, and she didn't think of anything at first, but when she heard Yujin complain that the birds outside the house smelled incense and came to steal food, she suddenly had an inspiration.

It was this hundred birds and phoenixes that made Mu Tianxiang decide that he must concoct an incense plate that can attract birds.

In this way, when the sacrifice burns incense and prays, and the incense is lit, there will be hundreds of birds, like the phoenix flying to the phoenix, one after another, to pray for the royal ancestors.

At that time, she will tell the allusion of this hundred birds and phoenixes, and I believe that this is definitely an ingenious sacrifice ceremony.

After explaining to Master Zhao, sure enough, everyone suddenly looked at her excitedly.

It's just that Mu Tianxiang saw everyone's faces, and couldn't help but blow again: "It's just that there is a way, but the spices and tools for making incense are an extremely difficult thing." ”

Mu Tianxiang's words came out, which immediately made everyone a little puzzled, and asked, "Isn't the incense set we usually use badly?"

You must know that the incense utensils used in Mu's Xiangfang are the most complete. If you can't use any of that, what else can you use?

Everyone looked at Mu Tianxiang with some suspicion.

Of course not.

She had to use the instruments that best distilled the quality of the spices when she needed them, not the hand tools.

It's just a pity that there is no modern language, and if there were, she would not be as embarrassed as she is now

"Don't worry about this, I'll have a way. (To be continued......)
