Chapter 118: The Smell of Blood
"This is ......" Jing Yan stared at the reddish-brown liquid in the medicine cup that was held in front of him, his heart was inexplicably frightened, and his eyebrows frowned.
"Queen Mother, this is the Sleeping Heart Soup, with the Sleeping Heart Herb as the king's medicine, it is the most ...... for your heart disease"
"Where is the Emperor?" Jing Yan interrupted Shi Ran's words and asked anxiously.
Shi Ran was stunned, so he had to tell the truth: "I don't know." β
He really didn't know where Yu Wenrui was now. He is a medical idiot, and after seeing the Sleeping Heart Grass, his whole heart was completely placed on it, and he only thought about concocting the Sleeping Heart Soup with his own hands and letting the Queen Mother take it. If there is really a miraculous effect mentioned in the ancient medical books, then he has made a miracle medicine with his own hands, and his life as a doctor is not in vain.
"Didn't she say she was going to pick it up herself? Now that the sleeping heart grass is back, where is she! Thinking that the person might be in danger at this time, Jing Yan couldn't help but be annoyed.
Shi Ran said embarrassedly: "It was the Chai girl, the Chai Girl, who sent it." β
Chai Qi!
Without the permission of the mourning family, she actually entered the palace silently! Even if she has excellent martial arts, she comes and goes so casually, what is the Forbidden Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty?
Chai Qi and Yu Wenda, like Zhe, are both sons and daughters of Emperor Renzong-
Thinking of this, Jing Yan couldn't help but feel awkward.
A faint breath emanated from the medicine cup and slowly drifted into Jing Yan's nose.
This smell is not at all like the sour and bitter taste of ordinary decoctions, it is a little fishy, a little sweet, and there is a hint of rust......
βοΌβ Jing Yan's mind inexplicably appeared in his mind the golden dragon with blood on his chest on his purse the day before yesterday, and his temples jumped a few times.
"Let's go!" She shouted urgently, "Don't drink it!" β
Shi Ran was surprised: The Queen Mother said she didn't drink, what does this mean?
Suddenly, a white shadow flashed, accompanied by an angry reprimand: "You dare! β
The maids in Kuntai Palace were all taken aback, and the timid ones couldn't help but cry out.
Jing Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, bursting out of two cold lights, with a hint of anger on his face, staring at the woman in white in front of him.
Shi Ran was sandwiched between two stunning women, but he didn't enjoy it at all. He was cold, frozen by the cold aura emanating from the two women's bodies, and a cool breeze was blowing in the cracks of his bones.
"What people! Dare to disturb the Queen Mother! "The guards of the inner court guarding outside the Kuntai Palace are not eating dry food, and when they noticed Chai Qi's brazen incursion, three or four people who were fast had already rushed in without regard for etiquette, drew their knives in their hands, and faced Chai Qi.
Chai Qi swept over a few guards and sneered disdainfully: "What? Want to fight? β
Jing Yan was only half a foot away from her, and there was a Shi Ran who was kneeling on the ground holding a medicine cup in the middle, but he was not afraid, "Miss Chai, is the Forbidden Palace of the Great Zhou a market tea shop?" Come when you want, go when you want? β
Chai Qi was already angry with her, and said-for-tat: "Da Zhou is the Da Zhou of Yuwen's family, how can I not come?" Can't go? β
The implication of her words was that her surname was Yuwen, and Jing Yan, a person with a foreign surname, was not qualified to beak her whereabouts.
Jing Yan was originally angry, but she was thoughtful, and at a glance she saw that Chai Qi's face was an unconcealable tired look, and even the spotless white clothes were stained with a little dust. With Chai Qi's cultivation as the backbone, she was so tired from running around and working like this, which shows how hard she tried her best to send back the herbs.
Jing Yan couldn't get angry, she waved her hand and ordered everyone to retreat, including Shi Ran.
Shi Ran couldn't resist the Queen Mother's decree, and cast a look at Chai Qi for help.
Chai Qi nodded, indicating that he was wrapped in himself. Shi Ran reluctantly put down the medicine cup and retreated uneasily.
When there were only two people left, Jing Yan said coldly: "Where is she?" β
Chai Qi also replied to her coldly unceremoniously: "Mo Nan." β
"Why didn't she come back?"
Chai Qi also smelled the faint smell of blood in the medicinal soup, and his heart tightened, "Let's talk about it after drinking!" β
"What are you hiding from your mourning family? This medicine ...... This medicine ......" Jing Yansu pointed to the medicine cup, and suddenly his voice trembled, and he couldn't say any more, and his hand trembled and trembled.
Chai Qi simply raised his voice and said: "This medicine is indeed a good sleep heart soup, and it is ......."
She stared at Jing Yan's eyes and said word by word, "She bought it with her life!" If you dare not drink, I will never give up with you! β
"Fate......" Jing Yan ignored the threat in her words, and supported the side of the case with one palm so as not to fall, "She...... She ......"
"She's still alive. You can rest assured. Chai Qi said a rare word of comfort.
The liquid in the medicine cup, and the bloody breath emitted by the liquid, seemed to be the most terrifying thing in the world in Jing Yan's eyes at this moment. She didn't dare to look, but stubbornly forced herself to stare until her eyes were sour and her eyes were red.
"This medicine ......," she heard her voice hoarse, as if it had crawled out of purgatory.
The other party's every move, Chai Qi saw it in his eyes. Before, she had always thought that it was just the motivation of the little junior sister, but now it seems that ......
Chai Qi twisted his face slightly, and couldn't bear to look at it again: "How is this medicine...... When you see her, ask for yourself! β
"Okay." Jing Yan's voice was very hollow.
Tick β
Tick β
Chai Qi turned his head in surprise, and saw two strings of tears sliding down Jing Yan's cheeks into the medicine cup, stirring up two small ripples. And thenβ
Jing Yan picked up the medicine cup, his eyes didn't blink, he poured it in two mouthfuls of three, and swallowed it without frowning. Then, his eyes were closed, and two lines of tears burst out of his eyes.
Whenβ
The medicine cup fell to the ground with a sound, and the few drops of the remaining medicinal liquid stained the gold bricks in the hall.
Monan.
The wind is strong, stirring the withered grass all over the field.
Yu Wenrui stood by the wind, staring stupidly in the direction of the southeast Great Zhou.
She'll take the medicine obediently, right? Senior Sister Chai and Shi Ran will definitely persuade her to take the medicine.
She's getting better, isn't she?
Will she miss me? Like I think of her at the moment......
"Arrow, it's cold here, go back to the tent, it's warm."
As soon as his shoulders were warm, a mink fur was draped over himself. Yu Wenrui turned around and faced the smiling Huang'er.
So, she also smiled back with a shallow smile, "Thank you." β
Yu Wenrui was dragged back to the tent by Huang'er.
The little girl was lying on her couch reading a book, when she heard the voice, she looked up and smiled: "I just said it would be cold, right?" You don't believe it. I have to catch you back! β
"Jixiang, how many times have you said it? Call Auntie! Huang'er reprimanded.
Yu Wenrui didn't care, sat down next to the little girl, and looked at the book she was reading, "Three Hundred Poems".
"Jixiang likes to read this?"
The little girl stared at Yu Wenrui for a moment, and then pouted and said, "Mr. let me read it." The words were full of helplessness.
Huang'er said: "According to the algorithm of your Central Plains people, auspicious enlightenment is late, and the gentleman who taught her to read was also taught lonely in the early years, and there is the best way to do it step by step." β
Yu Wenrui knew that Ji Xiang was under house arrest with his maternal grandfather with his mother when he was a child, not to mention enlightenment, I am afraid that he has never even seen a few people.
She felt pity and rubbed Jixiang's head, "What books does Jixiang like to read?" β
The little girl tilted her head to look at her, and finally landed on the bridge of her nose and thin lips that were the same as those of her aunt and nephew, "I like to listen to the story in Tongjian the most. β
Yu Wenrui's heart moved, aren't the stories in "Tongjian" all about how the emperor and the general established and governed the country?
The little girl then asked the doubts in her heart: "Are you really my aunt?" β
Yu Wenrui raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "Yes." Indeed, I am your aunt. β
"But, my aunt is also an aunt, and you are also an aunt......" The little girl drooped the corners of her mouth, worried.
Yu Wenrui was puzzled.
Huang'er stepped forward, pulled up the little girl, placed Yu Wenrui comfortably on the couch, and explained: "Sister Chai once told SΓΉ Jixiang that she was her aunt in the past. β
Without waiting for Yu Wenrui's reaction, the little girl grabbed something from her neck and raised it proudly: "This is what my aunt gave me!" It was my aunt's master who hacked the big snake to death, and the bone whistle made of snake bones spread far away! My aunt said that as long as I miss her, or if I am in danger, I can blow this bone whistle, and she and the disciples of Xuanyuanmen know this voice and will come to my rescue immediately! β
The bone whistle was half the size of a finger, and a leather rope was tied around the little girl's neck.
Yu Wenrui suddenly remembered the book of "Ziyang Zhenren Shouyang Mountain Snake Slashing" that he read when he was a child, and he had mixed feelings. Ten years have passed in a flash, but I don't want to know the rest of the story today. It turns out that the world is unpredictable, where do you not meet in life?
At the same time, she also suddenly understood why Huang'er was so clear about her own affairs and her sister-in-law's illness, it turned out that Senior Sister Chai had already discovered this child and treated her carefully.
She recalled the two gourd good wine that Senior Sister Chai invited her to drink in Langhuan Pavilion, one of which was Mo Nan's milk wine, which should have been here.
Yu Wenrui was full of emotion for a while, and pulled Jixiang into his arms: "Good boy, are you willing to go to Da Zhou with me?" There are many books to read that are more interesting than the Tongjian, and I will ask many gentlemen to teach you and tell you interesting stories. β
Ji Xiang stared at Yu Wenrui, thought for a while, and then said, "Are you called 'I'?" β
Yu Wenrui was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I'm not called me, my big name is called Yu Wenrui." Because I am the emperor of the Great Zhou, the emperor's self-proclaimed name is 'I'. β
Ji Xiang smiled: "This word is very nice, I like it very much." β
Yu Wenrui also smiled: "If you become the emperor of the Great Zhou in the future, you can also call yourself me." β
The little girl had no idea that she might be supreme in the future, she blinked her beautiful eyes, but focused on another question: "You are the emperor, you must have a lot of power, right?" β
"Naturally," Yu Wenrui nodded, "the whole Great Zhou will listen to me." β
The little girl smiled sweetly at her: "Then I'll call you aunt, can you help me find my father?" β
