"How is Your Highness doing in Tangshan Palace?" After arriving at Hanxiang Courtyard, Yuan Chun asked Shui Xiao with a smile.

Although he hadn't seen him for less than a month, Yuan Chun felt that King Zhao seemed to have grown a little taller.

She sighed in her heart: Adolescence! Growing up is fast...... When am I going to get rid of the loli I look like now?

Shui Xiao still greeted Yuan Chun in person at the Hanging Flower Gate, and said with a smile: "Tangshan Palace is picturesque, I can't miss it there, not only learned to swim in the water, but also improved my riding skills." By the way, I knew that Shang Yi Su liked landscapes, so I painted a few paintings, which painted the scenery of Tangshan. Can Shang Yi be willing to appreciate and appreciate? ”

Like Empress Shen, after Shui Xiao was canonized, he didn't like to use self-proclaimed names such as "this king" and "little king" when talking to Yuan Chun, but liked to call himself directly as "I". It's a habit, and it's also a bit more intimate.

Yuan Chun said with a smile as he walked inside, "Naturally, I want to watch it." However, the minister is a layman and does not know how to paint, so don't blame Your Highness for not understanding elegance! ”

"If the doctor is a layman, there will be no elegant person in the whole world!" Shui Xiao smiled slightly, and looked sideways at Yuan Chun, "The elegance of Shang Yi is already extraordinary and superb, how can ordinary mediocre people understand and understand?" ”

This fart is ...... It's so comfortable!

The corners of Yuan Chun's mouth couldn't help but curl: His Royal Highness King Zhao is really a person who can chat! But is it really good to praise her if you don't agree with her? I'll be tsundere!

"Your Highness has praised it!" Yuan Chun had to use this panacea-style cliché to hide the little fluttering and uncomfortable in his heart. Even though she has always been extremely thick-skinned, she was praised by this and blushed a little!

Shui Xiao's gaze moved to the front again, he coughed lightly, and cleared his throat: "What I said came from the bottom of my heart...... Could it be that the doctor thinks that I am a clever person? ”

Yuan Chun also coughed, thickened his skin again, and used jokes to hide the embarrassment in his heart: "How come? I always thought that His Highness was a man of good speech. ”

The difference between "clever words" and "being able to speak" is very subtle. Shui Xiao looked at Yuan Chun, a little apprehensive for a while, not knowing what she meant. Did you feel that you were not dignified enough, or did you offend her by what she just said?

While talking, the two of them had arrived at the Inch Heart Hall. Shui Xiao had to let go of this section first and made a respectful gesture: "Doctor Shang, please!" ”

After sitting down in the Cunxin Hall, the palace maids sent tea and snacks.

Yuan Chun cut the pulse for Shui Xiao through the veil, and was very satisfied: "It seems that His Royal Highness has not been lazy or hasty this month!" The remark that "I was tired all the way and was a little uncomfortable" was just an excuse, and Yuan Chunti didn't mention it again.

Shui Xiao retracted his hand, his fingers hidden in his sleeve, and unconsciously stroked Yuan Chun's wrist that had cut the pulse through the handkerchief just now, and was slightly distracted: "Doctor Shang's orders, how dare I disobey?" ”

After completing the routine pulse diagnosis, Shui Xiao let Yuan Chun go to the shade of the tree in the courtyard and drank tea with Yuan Chun. He also asked people to bring his paintings and appreciate them with Yuan Chun.

Most of those paintings are fine brushwork, and there are also two freehand paintings. He Yuanchun did not dare to comment on the painter, but he could see the general shape of the Tangshan Palace and the surrounding scenery through these paintings.

"What a pity! There are so many paintings, but there is no lotus picture! Yuan Chun couldn't help but make a joke about Shuixiao.

Shui Xiao raised his eyes to the sky and said with a smile: "The best thing about Tangshan Palace is that there is not a single lotus flower!" "There are only a lot of pools of soup there.

"That's a shame! Chen's favorite is the lotus! Yuan Chun thinks that the stalk of lotus may be able to play for a summer.

Shui Xiao's face couldn't help but be a little bitter: "Can't Doctor Shang like other flowers?" For example, plum blossoms, chrysanthemums or something...... I love chrysanthemums! "My least favorite thing is the lotus! Of course, he knew in his heart that it was not accurate to say that he "didn't like" lotus flowers, but it would be accurate to say that he was "afraid" of lotus flowers.

Love chrysanthemums? Yuan Chun looked at Shui Xiao with a very spoofed spirit: Your Highness, your taste is really heavy!

She said, "I like all other flowers except chrysanthemums!" But my favorite is still the lotus! The middle is straight outside, not vines and branches, the fragrance is far and clear, and the pavilion is net plant...... How wonderful! "Don't mention chrysanthemums to me! I don't know if in my dictionary, chrysanthemum also refers to a certain body organ? I'm really not obsessed with daisies!

Shui Xiao was a little dazed by her slightly disgusted little eyes: What does Shang Yi mean? Do I like chrysanthemums...... Is there anything wrong? Why doesn't Shang Yi like chrysanthemums?

You'll have to check this out!

After appreciating the painting for a while, Shui Xiao took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, pointed at a painting, and whispered: "I went to Tangshan Palace this time, in fact, to verify one thing." Some situations were uncertain before, so it was not good to explain them to Doctor Shang. Does Doctor Shang know that there is a nail planted by his father by his side? ”

Yuan Chun looked at him in surprise: "What did Your Highness say?" "There are some things that you can't say if you see through them! His Royal Highness King Zhao suddenly made this matter clear, what do you mean?

Shui Xiao was still pointing at the painting, making it look like he was commenting on the painting with Yuan Chun: "Shang Yi has the eyeliner placed by his father next to him." Does Shang Yi know who it is? ”

Yuan Chun said in his heart: Do you know? He asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Secretly, it's Qiu Ningshuang and Qin Zhen. On the bright side, it is Yuan Weihou. ”

Autumn Frost and Qin Zhen? And Yuan Weihou? Yuan Chun went through their talents, temperaments, and daily actions in his heart, and nodded silently in his heart. These three people are still more in line with the identity of spies.

Autumn Frost is too thoughtful! And she knows a lot about things in the palace, and I don't know how long she has memorized the information! Qin Zhen never rushes in front of her, but in her impression, she is very popular up and down. Yuan Weihou actually gave up the beauty of the eunuch and came to be a eunuch in charge, which in itself is a bit strange.

"Qiu Ningshuang and Qin Zhen were both trained in Tangshan Palace. These two people are both good, and they are also extremely smart, and they are the best in women's fine works. Shortly before Shang Yi entered the palace, they secretly entered the palace from different channels, and later passed through the hands of the queen mother and distributed them to Shang Yi. ”

Shui Xiao told the origin of these two people, and said, "The two of them don't know each other's existence, but the will they receive is the same. The father personally issued a secret decree to them: stay by the side of Shang Yi, do his best to gain Shang Yi's trust, and become Shang Yi's henchmen; But unless the Shang Yi or the Jia family has a disobedient heart, they don't have to do anything, just concentrate on serving the Shang Yi. ”

Yuan Chun couldn't help but sigh: No wonder these eyeliners have two dark and one bright match! It turns out that the autumn condensation frost and Qin Zhen are buried so deeply!

It is certain that she does not respect the emperor enough in her heart, but she will definitely not do things like rebellion and forcing the palace - too troublesome! The stakes are too great! I don't have a strong desire for power, and I don't have the energy to do such a thankless job.

So in terms of actual results, are these two eyeliners sent by the emperor to his side, or are they the right-hand man given by the emperor?

She thought a little funny and a little sarcastic: It seems that His Majesty the Emperor really attaches great importance to himself! And from the content of the emperor's secret decree to these two eyeliner, it can also be seen that the emperor's bottom line: don't covet his country! The rest is negotiable.

"Why did Your Highness sue me about this?"

Shui Xiao smiled faintly: "I just believe in Shang Yi's character more than my father, and I know Shang Yi's personality better." Rebellion is a matter of bloodshed, and the doctor is kind and cares about the common people, how can he bear to do such a rebellious thing and ruin the souls? ”

He sighed slightly: "I told Shang Yi about this because I was worried that Shang Yi would be too bright and straightforward, and I was afraid that what Shang Yi said and did would be misunderstood by my father, or that the villain would take advantage of the loophole." ”

In addition, emotionally speaking, he is also more inclined to Yuan Chun.

After his mother's death, he was not routinely posthumously posthumously sealed, and his father ignored him after he had been ill for so many years, even if he was broad-minded and had no grievances, he was not indifferent.

And Jia Shangyi, a person who has no blood relationship with him, as soon as he saw him as a patient, he didn't say a word and did his best to treat him. When the Taoist priest invited by his biological father wanted to do something with him, she stood in front of him and defended him with all her might. When his own sister froze half of his life, she guarded her all night and saved one of his lives...... And the father, because of his love for Concubine Chen, still tried to excuse Linyi after Linyi did such things and the evidence was conclusive!

After going through all kinds of things, Shui Xiao felt that the blood relationship between flesh and blood was probably not as reliable as people said.

Instead of believing in those who are related to you, you should believe in those who are truly good to you and truly trustworthy!

Yuan Chun had an indescribable feeling in his heart!

At the same time, she was a little ashamed and a little funny...... I'm really not a person of light! I just deliberately distorted you shamelessly, slandering you for liking chrysanthemums because you have a heavy taste!

――――――――

That night, Yuan Chun invited all the nine female officials who helped her record the book to come over for a small gathering, and told them that the emperor allowed them to sign their names, and asked them to each take a two-character alias for signature. All the female officials were overjoyed and thanked Yuan Chun one after another. Regarding the matter of leaving a name in history, these female officials usually dare not think about it; Now that they have this opportunity, they are still very happy and very proud.

"Can you give you an alias?" Song Qian asked with a smile.

Yuan Chun said: "The emperor gave me an alias, called Yingzhou." ”

"Yingzhou...... Jia Yingzhou ......" Song Qian read this nickname and praised, "Only such an alias is worthy of an adult." Because it was an alias given by the emperor, it was inconvenient for her to comment on anything.

At that moment, everyone began to discuss their aliases. Some say that this alias is good, and some say that this alias is vulgar, and you must take another one. After a noisy and noisy noise for most of the night, they decided on their aliases and dispersed.

Yuan Chun wrote the preface by himself and asked Song Qian to read it for him. Then they were copied and checked for correctness, and they were carefully locked up with the recorded medical books and picture books.

The date of the dedication of the book was June 16.

A few days before the book was dedicated, Yuan Chun was busy familiarizing himself with the etiquette procedures formulated by the Ministry of Rites for this book dedication.

The day before the book dedication ceremony, Yuan Chun got a dress specially made for her by the Shangfu Bureau.

The uniform of the female officer is the style of the jacket skirt. She wears a flower crown on her head, a horse-faced skirt on her bottom, and a short jacket on her top. The shoulders and neckline of the short jacket are embroidered with floral embroidery patterns representing various grades, such as Yuanchun's Congsi Pin, which is the lotus embroidery.

The dress specially made for her by the Shangfu Bureau is still in the style of a jacket skirt, which is red. The embroidery pattern on the short jacket is a peony embroidery pattern that has never appeared on the uniform of a female officer! And in addition to the peony embroidery, there is also an embroidery piece on the chest and back that resembles a round crane pattern!

On the head is a peony crown, and the corolla is accompanied by a hat. In addition, there is a pair of delicately embroidered gloves and a peony mask with a very delicate design and hollow embroidery!

Yuan Chun was stunned by the creativity of this dress!

The changes in embroidery patterns and corolla patterns, she can understand. After all, since the emperor has made such a big move, it is only natural for him to be promoted to his own official. The unprecedented peony embroidery pattern and peony crown probably mean that their grade will be unprecedentedly high, and they can overpower Lord Shanggong by touching it......

She understands all of the above.

But what's the deal with this hood and this mask? In order to avoid being looked at by others? This pair of gloves is afraid that I will "give or receive kisses" with others? Really...... At great pains!

She knew that she couldn't expect that "women can get ahead" in a world full of straight male cancer pathogens!

She smiled bitterly and picked up the delicate embroidered mask, and thought bitterly: Fortunately, it is hollow embroidery, and it won't be too boring to wear on your face, right?!

Words: Is it appropriate to wear a hat and a mask when meeting the emperor?

Of course, it's hard to care if it's suitable for Yuan Chun, and this dress was not prepared by herself!

The next day, Yuan Chun got up on the fifth watch. Changed into that set of special dresses, and according to the etiquette procedures, he first commanded the eunuchs specially sent by the emperor to pack and seal the bound manuscripts and sketches, and carry them to the side hall of the Taiwei Palace.

Then open the box, take out the manuscripts and drawings inside, and place them on a dozen trays in order. The smallest tray among them is the first volume of the "Nine Volumes of the Upper Medicine", "General Theory of the Human Body", which Yuan Chun wants to carry to the temple with his own hands. The other manuscripts and drawings were held by the eunuchs, who would follow her into the palace to offer books.

When the auspicious time arrived, all the civil and military officials were lined up in the main hall.

Yuan Chun was led to the front of the main hall, followed by two eunuchs holding trays. Listen to a eunuch with a loud voice read the decree.

The gist of the decree is: how the emperor will be diligent in government and love the people since he ascended the throne, how to make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and how to make the four people obey and the world return to their hearts. Then because of the emperor's virtue, this dynasty was appreciated and blessed by the gods, so he specially selected the granddaughter of Rong Guogong and the daughter of the Jia family who was nicknamed Yingzhou, and passed it on to the supreme medical skills to resolve the suffering of the world. It can be regarded as a reward for my diligence and love for the people and conscientiousness, and it is also a love and blessing for the people of the world...... I am very grateful to the gods for their love, and I will work hard in the future to make the people of the world live a better life as soon as possible......

In a word: The medical skills obtained by Yuan Chun were not for Yuan Chun, but for the gods to appoint Yuan Chun to the emperor for the benefit of the common people in the world. Since the gods love me and my world so much, I will laugh at it with shame!

As for why the gods didn't pass on the medical skills directly to the emperor, the holy decree didn't say it, everyone made up for it by themselves!

Yuan Chun wanted to roll his eyes when he heard this holy decree.

She thought to herself: I was wrong! I was really wrong!

I'm not the thickest skinned person in the world! The man who is a hundred times thicker than my skin is sitting on the throne!

Yuan Chun now understands why the emperor insisted on holding a book dedication ceremony in the Taiwei Palace, and why those important ministers agreed - this is completely a political show!

In other words: After the emperor publicly issued such a shameless holy decree, he should reward himself heavily, right?

He had to gag his mouth with glory and wealth, and begged himself to say a few kind words in front of the gods, and forgive him for being forced to put gold on his face!

After this shameless decree was read, Yuan Chun held the tray and slowly walked up to the hall with the eunuchs holding the book. She wore a hood and a mask, the light veil hanging from the hat interfered with her vision a little, and the horse-faced skirt was easy to step on when going up the steps. So she had to be very careful when she left. Otherwise, if she accidentally falls, she will be "famous in history" in another way - she will become a laughing stock for the ages.

Entering the main hall, under the watchful eyes of the ministers of civil and military affairs, royal family nobles, and foreign ministers of the feudal states, Yuan Chun stepped forward slowly.

She knew that her grandfather Jia Daishan and His Royal Highness King Zhao must be in this pile of people, but now is not the right time to look around, distraction is easy to make mistakes!

Kneeling in the designated position, Yuan Chun held the tray high and read his own lines. Fortunately, the lines are not long, and they are read quickly. Shi Zhong, the prime minister of the Daming Palace, walked down from the emperor's side, took the tray in Yuan Chun's hand, and put it in front of the imperial case. The tray in the hands of the eunuchs behind Yuan Chun was also picked up by some other eunuchs.

Then the emperor personally made a speech on receiving the gift, and Shi Zhong read out the will to reward Yuanchun.

Yuan Chun listened attentively: I have accompanied the emperor to perform this half-day play, and now it is time to get the labor fee!

The will of rewarding Yuanchun first said a lot of reasons, and finally said the specific items of the reward:

The emperor named her "a first-class doctor", and she was a first-class minister in the same dynasty and a first-class concubine in the inner court. And this official position called "Yipin Shangyi" is only for her, and only she can wear this official uniform. The Medical Bureau of the Ministry of Women's Officials has newly established a doctor from the fourth grade, who is responsible for managing the day-to-day affairs when she leaves the palace.

She was given a gold seal of "Yipin Shang Medicine", which was engraved with the words "practicing medicine in accordance with the order" and "only kneeling in heaven and earth, gods, Buddhas and immortals". With this golden seal, she can enter and leave the palace freely, and she no longer needs to kneel to any ordinary people.

The outfit she is wearing now is her official uniform. Wearing this official uniform, she can take care of patients freely.

In addition, she was given 10,000 taels of gold and a Huangzhuang, which was her dowry in the future. The emperor was also worried that she would be bumped into by people when she went out to enter and leave the palace and practice medicine, so he specially sent forty guards to protect her safety. These guards were paid by the imperial court and did not need to be paid by her.

Shi Zhong finished reading the holy decree, put the holy decree into a tray, and presented it to Yuan Chun together with the golden seal and the golden book.

Yuan Chun took the tray, exited the Taiwei Palace, and went to the harem under the support of everyone.

She was very happy in her heart: 10,000 taels of gold, equivalent to 100,000 taels of silver! In addition, there is Huangzhuang, so I don't know how big Huangzhuang is.

And the two items of "can freely receive patients" and "only kneel to the gods and Buddhas of heaven and earth from now on" can't be more in line with her heart!

With such a large amount of labor expenses, I am already very satisfied!

After returning to the Shangyi Bureau, Yuan Chun changed into the new regular clothes of "Yipin Shangyi" sent by the Shangfu Bureau, threw the hat aside, wore only a flower crown, and went to Yihe Palace to meet the queen.

There, a feast was prepared.

The queen and the women in the palace are waiting to congratulate her.

On this day, Yuan Chun was the absolute protagonist of the banquet, and the other female officials in the female official province, those concubines, concubines, concubines, etc., were all accompanying guests.

The concubine who had a good thing wanted to pour Yuanchun wine, but Yuanchun resolutely refused to drink it: "Niangniang, minors are really not suitable for drinking." The minister drank two cups before, which is an exception, and he must not drink again! ”

I don't know how much this body drinks! If you get drunk and make a fool of yourself, won't it make people see a joke in vain? Besides, minors should not drink alcohol!

The concubine hurriedly asked, "Why is this?" ”

Yuan Chun said: "Not only minors, but also pregnant women should not drink." It is because wine hurts the mind the most, and the fetus and children are still weak, and drinking too much wine will hurt the mind. ”

Then the concubine stopped drinking.

Yuan Chun replaced wine with tea and dealt with these women.

After the banquet was dispersed, Yuan Chun returned to the Shang Medical Bureau. Qiu Ningshuang came to report: "His Royal Highness King Zhao sent someone to send a congratulatory gift. ”

Yuan Chun took the gift list and read it again, and then went to see the congratulatory gifts. Nothing else, but a jade ornament is the most rare.

The ornament was carved from a single piece of jadeite. The green jade plate, the green lotus leaves, there are small dewdrops on the leaves, and the white lotus flowers, the white lotus buds and the green lotus buds...... The carving is extremely delicate and delicate, and if you pour some water into the jade basin, it will be a pot of lotus flowers!

This ornament is absolutely worthwhile!

His Royal Highness King Zhao has only been canonized for less than half a year, and his family background is definitely not thick, and it is a very tyrant to send such a congratulatory gift.

A small note was also attached to the ornament, which read: The wind and bones of the lotus flower cannot be painted; With this thing, I would like to congratulate the doctor on today's joy and talk about the joy of the doctor.

Yuan Chun looked at this note, and then looked at the ornament of the jade bowl lotus, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

That night, Yuan Chun set up a table at the Shang Medical Bureau to entertain the people of the Shang Medical Bureau and the female officials who helped her write down the medical book.

She was about to leave the palace, and looking at Qiu Ningshuang and the others, she began to think about how to deal with these eyeliner issues.

Honestly, the Autumn Cream is really easy to use! She was probably trained hard since she was a child, so she is more thoughtful and meticulous than Huqin, and she knows how to endure more. For example, in the incident of saving Xu Feiying, she twice asked her to blow into the mouth of a lifeless person who faked death, and judging from her face, she resisted this matter. But she didn't say anything, she just did it! At this point, I'm afraid that I can't do it even if I hold the qin.

That Qin Zhen is still very low-key in front of her, and it is precisely because of her low-key that this person is extremely patient and extremely cautious. She didn't take the liberty of stealing the limelight in front of herself, so she could avoid the trouble of being jealous of Qiu Ningshuang; She has a very good relationship with her top and bottom, and she has a very wide range of contacts and intelligence sources.

Obviously, both Qiu Ningshuang and Qin Zhen chose different routes according to their positions and tasks. Because Qiu Ningshuang was the leader of the palace maids around him from the beginning, she took the upper-class elite route; And Qin Zhen was just an ordinary palace maid at the beginning, so he took the mass line.

And Yuan Weihou is a very knowledgeable person, and he is also neat and thoughtful. And he is a eunuch, and some palace maids are inconvenient to come forward to do, so it is very appropriate to hand them over to him.

Do you want to take them out of the palace? There is also a palace registration of holding the qin, should it be eliminated?

The former question she quickly decided: the nail does not have to be removed. It's actually quite fun! The Jia family's things have probably been cleaned up, and those that haven't been cleaned up probably can't meet the standard of "disobedience".

On the latter question, Yuan Chun decided to ask Baoqin himself for his opinion.

When asked to Baoqin at night, Baoqin hurriedly knelt down and vowed to follow Yuanchun for the rest of his life, and she was where Yuanchun was. Yuan Chun followed her.

When he met the queen the next day, Yuan Chun asked the queen to allow him to take all his palace maids with him to serve, and let Xu Feiying also go out of the palace with him to study medicine.

“…… Talents are rare, how can those girls in my family be as good as them? In the days when I entered the palace, I had them to serve, and the days of the ministers were very worry-free, so I couldn't bear to part......"

Empress Shen agreed after a moment of silence, and then told Yuan Chun: "You have always acted prudently, today I only tell you two words: be cautious!" Do not speak without form and act in rebellion just because no stranger hears or sees you. Good to know: There are no impermeable walls in this world! Can you ...... Got it? ”

Yuan Chun was slightly moved in his heart: "Thank you Niangniang!" Minister...... Noted down! ”

Empress Shen pondered for a moment, and then said: "After you leave the palace, if Prince Yongzhi's Mansion comes to invite you, or you meet someone from Prince Yongzhi's Mansion elsewhere, you must be careful!" Prince Yongzhi's biological mother was once named a concubine, and she was the most discordant with Min Guiren, the biological mother of the seventeenth, and later, she was convicted and demoted because of Min Guiren. ”

Prince Yongzhi Shui Huo, the sixth son of the current emperor, was named a prince for his military exploits.

"Thank you for the mention! Got it! ”

In other words: this Prince Yongzhi may have bad intentions towards himself because he saved His Royal Highness King Zhao?
