40. The Covenant of the Jade Maiden
The moon, sprinkled with light, shines on everything clearly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It also seems to know that the darkness below is unforgiving, and it is desperately shining on all this, not letting the darkness swallow up a little emotion.
months, sleepless.
- Princess Wenhui is sleepless.
Although she was lying on the bed, her eyes were open and looking out the window at the bright moon.
The night is getting deeper, and in the Luoyang Mansion where they live, the courtyard is solemn and the guards are under martial law. Outside, there was silence, and the insects and ants were murmuring.
She couldn't sleep because her mind was full of uncertainties.
She had to go back eventually.
Go back, the life in the palace is good, you can have whatever you want, not as tiring as outside. But she had to deal not only with a life that constrained her freedom, but also with the marriage problem that she could not bear—if she didn't have it, she would have done anything!
How good this outside love is!
--Looking at the ethereal night sky, she felt countless crystal clear stars lingering around her, slowly flying. Everything is extremely pure, charming and beautiful, sparkling, dotted all around with incomparably brilliant light. And she and Mei Xin are in it. It's like a dreamlike fairyland, she is so happy and happy, what a beautiful scenery it is.
"Princess, are you asleep?" the maid Meixin also had no sleep.
The princess fantasizes about it. She was a little disappointed, and her good illusion was interrupted by her. She replied angrily, "I'm asleep!"
Mei Xin slept in the same bed with her. She has slept with her since she was a child, or this princess would not have been able to sleep. She turned sideways and looked at the princess with her back to her, at the back of the princess outside the window, the corners of her mouth twitching. She reached out and tucked the quilt on her waist slightly, and asked softly, "The moon is so round outside, what is the princess thinking?"
The princess did not answer.
Mei Xin paused and said slowly, "I can't sleep, I've been thinking about that person!"
The princess turned her face and said angrily, "Are you going to die?
Mei Xin hurriedly said: "No, no, no, I mean I remembered something, I can't figure out that person!"
The princess asked, "What is it?"
"Does the princess remember the person who went to the doctor?"
How could the princess not remember him? When she thought of him, she remembered the things he had done to her, and she could not help but feel angry in her heart: "What do you want him to do for no reason?"
Mei Xin's face turned red, and she only said that she had misunderstood her, and hurriedly said: "I mean that the doctor is so strange, with that medical skill, even the imperial doctor of the palace is not willing to be it, but he wants to be a street doctor." ”
"I don't know if he really has medicine, or if he is indiscriminate and casual?" the princess snorted and said, "The so-called knowing people and faces but not knowing the heart, such a minor illness made him earn so much gold in vain, it was really cheap for him!"
Mei Xin said: "I don't think he looks like a bad person!"
Princess: "Is his bad writing written on your head for you to see?
Mei Xin: "I don't think he is a malicious person, he saved us earlier!"
The princess said, "Save us, we will be grateful to him, this is one thing." But he's interfering with our freedom, that's his problem. For that bit of reward, he treats us as exchange items, unscrupulous means, so what is it that is not his character problem?"
Mei Xin said: "But this is all the queen's idea!"
Princess: "What about the queen mother's idea? don't let him fall into our hands next time, we will have to make him suffer a little!"
Mei Xin's heart tightened, and she didn't know what to say when she looked at her.
"By the way, there you have it, I have a way to deal with him!"
When Mei Xin heard what the princess said, she was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "What does the princess plan to do to him?"
A bright light flashed in the princess's eyes: "When I return to the palace, I plan to ask the queen mother to summon him into the palace again, and then teach him a good lesson......"
The sun struck a spirit, and for a moment he said to himself: "How do you feel weird, as if someone is saying bad things about me." He stood in front of the gate of a courtyard, looked at the eye-catching words 'Guixiangli' next to the lantern, and then looked at the endless streets on both sides, where only a few pedestrians walked.
"Could it be that the girl is really in a hurry to talk about me, is it?" replied to himself again, "Then I have to hurry." said that it was good to come at this time, it was delayed for so long just now, don't really delay the matter of seeing a doctor for her, it will be nerve-wracking. He tightened the bamboo basket on his back and stepped forward to knock on the door. That is, as soon as his hand touched the door, he found that the door was hidden, and he only patted it, and the door was touched a little by him.
"May I ask anyone?" Seeing the door open, he hurriedly stepped back and called out as a sign of politeness.
When you go into someone's house, you have to at least ask for their permission, which is basic etiquette. But he called out, and waited for a while, but no one answered. So he cried out again, this time louder than before, but no one answered.
Since no one answered, of course you couldn't just go in. Covering the sun pondered for a moment, it was not good to push the door again, and then opened the inside, only the dim light came out.
If you go back like this, you will not be willing to think about it, so you will stand for a while, and then scream a little harder inside. If no one answers, there is no way to do it - "May anyone ......?"
As soon as he called out, a man's voice suddenly rang out, "You're finally here!" and the door suddenly opened.
In this quiet night, the sun was looking up at the two delicate lanterns under the eaves, and suddenly heard this somewhat cheerful and sweet voice, and was almost not startled. He couldn't help but take a step back, and when he saw the pure white girl, he couldn't help but laugh: "My eldest lady, you scared me!"
The girl stood at the door, looked at him and smiled: "If you don't do something bad, you will be scared like this?"
He smiled, "You should know that people are scared to death." Okay, I'm here at your request, how can I help?"
The girl said: "Don't be busy, you come from afar, you want to help, and you have to sit down and rest inside before you start." As he spoke, he smiled and asked.
Shade smiled and casually agreed, and went in first. The pure girl closed the courtyard door at the back, and led the way in front.
A very chic courtyard: there is a corridor, a pool, a rockery, a flower garden, and a bamboo forest. As soon as you walk into here, you feel like you're in a garden, and you can imagine that it will be a family. Covering the sun was puzzled, so he only followed her and said, "By the way, I don't know Miss's name yet?"
"You call me Ah Xue, right? What about you? What should I call you?" Ah Xue turned the bead pavilion, reached the curtain, and led him into a room surrounded by flowers in the courtyard.
When he said his name, he only felt that the lilies in the show room were fragrant.
The room has a bronze mirror, a dressing table, a screen, an embroidered tent, an embroidered quilt, and this is obviously her boudoir. "It's so fragrant, Miss's room is different, unlike me, where there is a room full of medicinal smells. ”
Ah Xue smiled: "Women, they all like to be beautiful." She invited him to sit next to him, took the tea-set on the table, poured two cups of tea, and placed one in front of him.
He picked up the cup, took a sip, looked around, and said, "Miss Xue, you are really quiet here!" In fact, the implication of his words is that you are the only one here? But of course he can't ask that, at this time, in this case, if the other party is really alone, it will inevitably make people misunderstand that you are deliberately trying to probe the other party's privacy.
Na Xue smiled and said, "Of course it's quiet, there are no other people here except us." Actually, I like this environment. ”
After listening to it, he couldn't guess what she meant for a while. It stands to reason that a woman on the weaker side, especially a woman as outstanding as her, will have an increased sense of precaution when she comes into contact with strangers. But at the same time, she did the opposite.
Since she was so frank, no matter whether she was simple enough or had other intentions, she didn't want to get involved in this matter anymore, lest it be self-defeating. So he wanted to change the topic, but before he could speak, Ah Xue said: "What are you carrying on your back? ”
He also smiled: "You see I'm used to it, if you don't say it, I really forgot this herbal basket." It's my business, and I depend on it for my life. ”
Ah Xue said: "Come, I'll help you unload it, it's so inconvenient." As she spoke, she got up and came over to help him, gently taking the basket out of his back and setting it aside. Shade smiled and thanked him.
"My body, for some reason, is often a little unwell. I have also looked for countless Langzhong, but I always don't see good. Xue sat down at the table again and sighed slightly.
He looked at her and said, "Look at Miss's complexion, white and red, it's just beautiful, where does it seem to be uncomfortable?"
"Do you think I'm really fine?" Ah Xue asked, looking at him with a happy face.
"Of course it's true. "However, although seeing is believing, all the mysteries of man are embodied in an inch of veins on the wrist. We still have to take the pulse to see it at a glance, and it is more reassuring. ”
"Okay!" Ah Xue stretched out her hand in front of him, "Then you can help me take a look!"
The sun looked at her white hand and smiled: "Don't be busy, let's drink tea first, sit down, and be quiet!"
Ah Xue smiled: "Are you not calm now?"
I couldn't grasp her true meaning for a while, so I had to force a straight face: "Take the pulse to see the patient, the patient must pay attention to the stability of qi and blood, so that the disease pulse can appear in the pulse." If you come back from a vigorous movement just now, and your pulse is agitated like gongs and drums, how can you tell the condition?"
Ah Xue said: "So that's the case, but you are particular enough to see a doctor." My husband who came to see me didn't look so carefully!"
"In fact, the pulse that is interpreted in this way is not necessarily 100% certain. Generally, for the diagnosis and treatment of patients, only eight or nine times out of ten can be judged correctly. ”
"So that's the case!" Ah Xue only nodded when she looked at him, "But when I saw the doctors outside, they all said that they were reincarnated as divine doctors and cured all diseases, is that true?"
"Sometimes quacks are really harmful. In fact, who really dares to pack a ticket in the business of seeing a doctor? This condition is ever-changing, and it is extremely difficult to judge correctly. If you don't have thousands of experiences, you don't dare to get them. It's also a joke if you take it. This pulse is read, and then there is the medicine. However, this medication alone is extremely complex and changeable, and one more point is not enough, and one point less is not in place. Therefore, this diagnosis and treatment of a patient, seeing a doctor and taking medicine must be done just right. ”
Ah Xue suddenly said in a very gentle voice: "You are really attentive to seeing a doctor!"
In the beautiful room, under the bright light, the sun saw the look on her face: the eyes were burning and moving—"By the way, we've had a break, and it's almost over." When he saw the hand she still had in front of him, he sat up straight and stretched out his right hand to take her pulse.
"Okay!" Ah Xue still just looked at him, and her voice was full of warmth.
He didn't dare to look at her, so he lowered his head and took his pulse.
Looking at his fascinate appearance, Ah Xue just watched him from the side and didn't move. Finally, when he let go of his hand, she asked, "Why are you pressing your fingers lightly and heavily?"
"I'm dividing the cause of my illness. ”
"Is that all right?"
"Not yet, but I'll have to look at the other hand. ”
Ah Xue then stretched out her right hand again.
She sat at his right hand, and because she wanted to give him her right hand, she simply turned her body to him to free her right hand. She pulled her sleeves and faced him, her left hand in front of her knees.
She looked at him again, pressing the vein.
He didn't dare to be distracted at this time, because he clearly felt her gaze flow from his side, face, and then to his hand.
After half a cup of tea, the sun finally relieved his mind and let go of his hand: "Okay, Miss's six veins and pulses, heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys are all normal and lively, but occasionally in the 'kidneys', the essence is a little lacking, and it should be improved by paying more attention to normal food and accommodation." ”
"Great, am I really okay?"
"Of course, I told you this—" He paused for a moment, for she was within reach of him, her knees almost touching herself. And her clear and beautiful appearance was displayed in front of her, especially the way she looked at herself—the kind of look that seemed to be looking forward to her when she was happy.
"I told you that you are such a beautiful girl, of course there will be no problems!" said the words that were almost cut off with a smile.
"Am I really good-looking?" Ah Xue stared at him, only smiling.
He didn't dare to look at the sun, but only nodded and said it was good-looking.
"Is it really pretty?"
Blind Sun still just nodded: "It's really good-looking!"
"I'm good-looking, so why don't you dare to look at me?"
Covering the sun with his hands, he covered his eyes: "I'm afraid that I can't help it when I see it, and I can't help but be moved!"
Ah Xue smiled and slapped his hand down, and said, "Just take a look, you won't eat me!"
When she said this, she regained her expression, and was about to speak, when Ah Xue smiled and said, "Seeing that you are so good at seeing a doctor, why don't you teach me too! How do you take the pulse?" she said and stretched out her left hand and touched it with her right hand. But she is obviously a raw hand, not only is she in the wrong position, but she is not even in the right position.
He pointed at her with his fingers: "This left hand corresponds to the heart, liver, and kidney, and these three fingers should be placed like this." If you listen closely, the vein beats between your fingers, fluttering on the ground, and it is your own vein—"
Xue: "It turns out that my own heart is beating like this, which is interesting. And what about your hand? Can I hear it? Is it the same as mine?"
He then stretched out his hand: "Everyone's pulse is actually the same, but it will also vary from person to person. Men and women are actually slightly different. For example, men's pulses are generally larger, while women's pulses are thinner, the elderly's pulses are deeper, and young children's pulses are shallow. When the pulse is divided, it depends on the person, the weather, and the constitution—" But what he saw was that she was only stroking his wrist, so he hurriedly corrected her.
Ah Xue looked at him like that, and just smiled: "Okay, it doesn't seem that easy to see a doctor." Hearing you say that, I think anyone who wants to learn must first have to retreat. I want to learn, but I'm afraid you won't teach me. ”
"The so-called hard work pays off, but in fact, it may not be as difficult as Miss imagined." ”
Ah Xue looked at him, sighed and said, "These are easy to say, who knows how much training you have gone through to get them!"
In her words, looking back, she also has a deep understanding. Seeing that she lowered her head, he was also silent for a while. He remembered the hardships he had come through.
"Hey!" Ah Xue sighed, "I think I've been wandering outside for many years, I've tasted countless sorrows, and I also know that life is not easy. I show my face and beg every day, unlike you who can help people see a doctor, and I can't find a way out. She slowly got up and walked to the side, "I pretend to be cold outside, but in fact, I only have a thousand feelings of loss and loneliness in my heart. Sometimes I feel so scared when this is the end of the day, but no one tells me what to do!"
"I didn't care about other people's gossip, but all of a sudden, I felt so tired, so tired that I felt like I had a stone in my chest. She walked to the bedside, "Sometimes lying on the bed, the feeling of being oppressed by the stone, makes you not want to struggle anymore." ”
He watched her sit on the edge of the bed, unable to interject for a moment. However, it is not easy to say anything at this time, and sometimes when communicating with others, listening is not a method.
"I sometimes feel depressed, and I can't breathe in my chest. She put her hands on her chest, "You're a doctor, why do you say I'm doing this?"
Sun: "Maybe you're thinking too much!"
Xue: "yes, I have to think. I have been without parents since I was a child, and I am almost an orphan. My sister, who was dependent on me for her life, also married in her early years, leaving me alone, so I felt more and more lonely. ”
"Look at your age, your sister is married, you can also find a partner!"
Ah Xue looked at him: "So I'm looking for it, what kind of person do you think I'm looking for?"
"It's hard to say, of course you have to find a compatible ......" As soon as she said it, she heard her groan, and suddenly fell down on the bed.
Seeing this, he hurriedly got up and ran over, shouting, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" As soon as he ran to the bed, he was about to reach out to probe her body lying on the bed, but as soon as his hand touched her arm, her hands took his hand in turn, and pulled him down on top of him.
She didn't know that she was cheating, and she was struggling to get up, but she didn't let go, she only looked at him below, and said with a lot of charm in her eyes: "Don't you like me?"
Blind Sun looked at her, stopped struggling for a while, swallowed saliva, and said two words in an almost trembling voice: "I like it!"
Ah Xue said: "Then why are you afraid of me? ”
"I'm not afraid of you, I'm afraid of your place." Strange place, strange beautiful woman, I'm scared!"
Ah Xue smiled: "You are too timid, then I will go back to you with you, then you will not be afraid, right?"
"I'm more afraid, I still have a wife and children." ”
Ah Xue said: "It turns out that you still have a family, you can't see it!"
"Yes!" "Yes!" said with some difficulty, "If Miss is okay, I'll go first!"
Ah Xue held his hand tightly, lay on his back, and pulled him on top of her, she looked at him and said softly: "Do I have any problems, didn't you touch it just now?"
Trying to keep his distance from her, he said with difficulty: "Yes, Miss has a strong vein, and her vitality is as lively as your person, but there is no problem." ”
Ah Xue said: "That's good, but sometimes I feel very lonely and depressed, why haven't you said it yet?"
"Don't think too much!"
Ah Xue said: "I have to think, after my sister got married, I was thinking, what kind of person I am looking for, what kind of person is suitable? It wasn't until later that I learned that the right person should not only feel by sight, but also by the feeling of ......" Her hand had begun to climb his waist, and she was almost completely hugged by her.
The sun no longer struggled, and let her cling to herself. As soon as he relaxed his hands, she rolled over under him, and in turn pressed him under him. Her whole body was almost covered in front of him.
"Do you like me?" she squirmed, her clear face close to him, her eyes revealing fireworks of enthusiasm.
Sunshade just looked at her and nodded.
Xue put her hand into the placket of his shirt and stroked it for a while, then she whispered in his ear, "Shall we take off our clothes?" She stood there, her hand touching the belt of her waist, and she gently pulled it open. That face, facing him, is a heart-warming charm-
Lying down there, seeing this, he nodded and shook his head busily, as if he wanted to refuse and welcome.
