Chapter 35: The Counterattack Strategy of the Prime Minister's Mansion (22)

The old lady pulled Ziyao and motioned her to get up and reply, "It would be nice if your mother was here, but poor Wu'er left early, I didn't see you so slim, I heard that the emperor gave you the marriage of King Ning, and named you the lord of Xining?"

Zi Yao nodded, her face flushed slightly, and Qing Xuan interjected: "Grandmother is good to help Yanran prepare the dowry! Auntie's dowry has been squandered by the Cui family, and the prime minister is a person with two sleeves and a breeze, and grandmother wants to help Zhang Luo!"

The old lady patted Qingxuan's head, "Don't be ashamed of the dead girl, I will buy Yanran's dowry, what about you?

Qing Xuan stomped his feet and pouted: "Grandmother is eccentric, why is she in a hurry to push me out! Besides, Shangguan E is not as advanced as his brother Shangguan Jie, why do you have to marry him!"

The old lady pretended to be angry and said: "You forgot that you chased people and said that he would not marry, and now you want to regret it, and hurry up and get married early next year!" Qing Xuan blushed and rubbed his handkerchief, "Ignore you." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" said and sat in the distance.

Zi Yao wanted to persuade her, but the old lady stopped and shook her head: "Don't go, she knows in her heart, will your King Ning be good to you then?"

Zi Yao smiled, "Well, he took me very well!"

The old lady nodded, "I heard that King Ning and the emperor promised to marry only you for the rest of their lives, it is very rare to be a royal person, hey!

Zi Yao was slightly different, she never knew why her father married Cui's, because looking back on the memory of the original owner, her parents' feelings were very good, and it was not something that others could interfere with, so she asked along the topic: "Grandmother, why did my father marry Cui's back then?"

The old lady sat up straight and looked into the distance, and said slowly as if reminiscing: "After your father and your mother got married for five or six years, they have not come out, and everyone is very anxious. Although the emperor was old at that time, he was very important to use, and sent your father to Shannan County for disaster relief, on the way back to Beijing, your father's convoy encountered a mudslide and killed and injured many people, and it happened that at this time the emperor had a noble concubine whose family was the Cui family in the capital, and their family saved your father and everyone, and your father was very grateful to the Cui family when he returned to Beijing to commend the Cui family. Cui Guifei wanted to win over your father after knowing it, so she suggested to the emperor that Cui Jiaoniang, the concubine of the Cui family, be married to your father as a side room, but he tried his best to oppose it and did not succeed, and finally your uncle Zhai Xiuqi came forward to let him inherit it, after all, the emperor's order cannot be violated! After Cui Shi entered the door, he tried every means to lure your father and finally drugged He Fanghua, your mother was depressed and returned to her parents' house not long after she found out that she was pregnant, and you know what happened after that, but I always felt different when your mother gave birth to Xu when she had a difficult birth, but your father was too sad and lingered on the sickbed at the time, so I didn't pursue it. It's been a lot of years, you've become a big girl and you're about to get married, forget about the past, don't mention it again, let's pick out jewelry for you!

Yuzhu, Qingzhu, Zizhu, Mozhu four people each held a vermilion exterior lacquer black cloud pattern decoration of the wooden Xi, walked in, only to see that each wooden Qi cylindrical belly is deeper, there are three animal feet under it, there are beast royal ring ears next to it, the color is bright. One by one in front of Zi Yao, the old lady motioned for her to choose by herself, Zi Yao didn't want to refute the old lady's face, so open it and see, the jade hosta is placed in rows, there are more than 100 sets of hairpins, hairpins, Huasheng, Huadian, and earrings inlaid with red and green gemstones, Zi Yao chose a set of antler-shaped sapphire Huasheng and two phoenix-tailed butterfly hairpins and returned to the seat and thanked the old lady.

The old lady was unhappy, took Zi Yao's hand and said: "It's too little, how can this work, Yuzhu Qingzhu, you choose two sets of each category to put on Miss Table, you are now the county lord and you will be the princess in a few days, how can you be too shabby!"

Zi Yao had no choice but to accept it gladly, and after seriously talking with the old lady about how to maintain her body, after having dinner with the old lady, Zi Yao returned to the prime minister's mansion with a large bag.

As soon as Zi Yao entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, a small servant came to report that it was Ning Wang's Mansion that brought a large box of medicinal materials, Zi Yao happily lifted her skirt and ran towards her courtyard, as soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she saw a huge wooden box in front of the medicinal materials warehouse in the east wing, and before she got closer, she smelled the rich fragrance of cinchona leaves and bark, opened it and saw a large box, she was so excited that she actually laughed, Lan Xi saw that Miss was happy and happy for Miss, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Miss, I'll help you concoct medicinal materials!"

Zi Yao shook her head, "This kind of medicinal material has really strict requirements for temperature control, I'll start to make it in a while, fill me with some snacks and water, and then help me prepare work clothes! I won't let any of you enter and disturb me, remember! Otherwise, the medicinal materials may be scrapped directly." Send more people to guard my yard, and Lan Xi's affairs outside will be left to you. ”

Lan Xi promised to go to prepare immediately, Ziyao went back to the room to change her clothes, ate a few bites of snacks indiscriminately, broke up her long hair and wrapped it tightly in a large bun on the top of her hair with a handkerchief, and she wore a mask, gloves and apron, and entered the east wing room to start concocting cinchona, cleaning, distilling, filtering, separating, and extracting step by step. Two days have passed in a blink of an eye, the door of the east wing has not been opened, Lan Xi hurriedly paced back and forth in the courtyard, and finally couldn't help but send the secret guard left by King Ning to King Ning's mansion to inform Xiao Ningkai, and within two quarters of an hour, Xiao Ningkai rushed into the courtyard, and saw Lan Xi hurriedly asked how it was now?

Lan Xi almost cried and replied: "His Royal Highness King Ning, my young lady hasn't come out for two days now, and she only took a few pieces of dim sum to go in before, and the young lady didn't let the slave maid disturb and said that if it was suddenly interrupted, it would be easy to spoil the medicinal herbs, and the slave maid really had no choice, so let people inform you, you should think of a way!"

Xiao Ningkai walked to the door of the east wing and listened carefully to the sound of Suo Suo inside, so he asked softly: "Yao'er, are you okay?

As if a soft snort came, Xiao Ningkai pushed the door in, and after many years, he could hardly forget the feeling when he saw Zi Yao, feeling that he was lying on his side lifeless and pale next to the medicine box, with black blood flowing from the corners of his mouth and nose, looking at Xiao Ningkai and smiling slightly, and said softly: "Ning Lang, your medicine is ready, ...... Eat ...... soon" Zi Yao held an emerald green porcelain vase and was about to hand it to Xiao Ningkai, gradually his eyes froze, and his hand loosened, Xiao Ningkai rushed over, carried people out of the east wing, and shouted at the secret guard: "Go a few more people, quickly bring Xie Lao !!"

He rushed into the inner room with someone in his arms, asked Lan Xi to bring a basin of clear water, cut the middle fingers of Zi Yao's hands with a knife and immersed them in the basin, cross-legged behind Zi Yao, put his palms on Zi Yao's back, and used internal force to push Zi Yao through the acupoints, the black and purple blood continued to flow out along the tips of the middle fingers of both hands and the corners of his lips, but he didn't see Zi Yao wake up for a long time, Xiao Ningkai was so anxious that his hands trembled, his forehead was drenched with sweat, and the secret guard rushed in and knelt in front of the bed. Master, don't input any more internal force, otherwise your Gu poison is about to attack, and the princess will do her best to make medicine at the expense of the poison in her body, just to save you! Don't care so much about your body. ”

Xiao Ningkai continued to grit his teeth and input internal force, only opened his lips and spit out the word "roll", and the dark guard reluctantly turned around and went out.

After another quarter of an hour or so, Xie Lao was finally comforted, his hair was still wet, and he looked like he had been pulled in the bath, so he didn't have time to be polite, Xie Lao directly gave Zi Yao a needle, and yelled at Xiao Ningkai to let him rest and eat the antidote that Zi Yao had prepared.

Dividing ————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Zi Yao was poisoned too deeply, and after Xie Lao's repeated treatment, he didn't wake up until the next day, opened his eyes and saw the familiar room, and then looked down to see Xiao Ningkai lying on the side of the bed, and reached out and gently stroked his head with infinite love.

Zi Yao knew that such an urgent concoction of medicinal materials was because if she didn't solve the Gu again, Xiao Ningkai's various organs would be irreversibly damaged, and even if she solved the Gu, it would be difficult to live a long life, now that the medicine has been prepared, as long as she takes it on time, although she will be poisoned and her body will be very bad, even her life will be shortened a lot, and the most important thing is that the toxin will invade the ear nerves and make her deaf, but she doesn't regret it at all, because he loves herself so much, even if the mission fails, she won't regret it.

Xiao Ningkai woke up after Zi Yao touched her hair, and was very excited when she saw Zi Yao wake up, and hurriedly asked: "Yao'er, how are you? Are you uncomfortable? scared me to death, I thought you were going to leave me behind, if my life needs you to change it desperately, I won't agree with you to give me an explanation, what's the point of you if the days are gone?"

Zi Yao tried hard to pull the corners of her mouth, Xiao Ningkai fed Zi Yao a few mouthfuls of water, "Hungry! I'll let you warm porridge!

Brought the minced meat porridge, gently stirred and picked up Zi Yao, "Yao'er open her mouth!" Zi Yao took a sip of porridge and said laboriously, "I.......... It's okay......" Xiao Ningkai's tears gathered in his eyes, Zi Yao reached out to wipe them, frowned and shook his head, Xiao Ningkai nodded and then fed Zi Yao porridge, before finishing eating, Zi Yao fell asleep again, carefully covered Zi Yao with a quilt and exited the room.

Outside the door, Xie Lao and the doctors of Heshantang stood together and waited, Xie Lao couldn't help but step forward and asked, "His Royal Highness King Ning, how is the county lord?" Can you hear it?" Xiao Ningkai handed the porridge bowl to Lan Xi, motioned for everyone to go to the side hall, and said to Xie Lao as he walked: "Xie Lao, I guess your diagnosis and treatment are not bad, Yao'er should not be able to hear, she has been looking at my lips and communicating with me." Old Xie nodded, he had already discovered it when he took Zi Yao's pulse before, and this time he just asked King Ning to confirm it.

Xie Lao, Nancheng Chang, Lu Dongyang and others discussed together, several people were worried, everyone had seen the county lord's pulse case, it was impossible to recover from deafness caused by a large number of toxins raids, and she could only try her best to improve her physique, looking at the appearance of the county lord, she knew the result before concocting the drug, so she resolutely made the medicine, seeing that the date of the northern expedition was imminent, King Ning was leaving Beijing again, and it was necessary to restore the county lord's body as soon as possible.
