On the way back to the city, it was already dark, and Zhang Jing and they were not walking the same way, and when they were about to reach the city gate, the carriage was followed again.

The carriage returned to the palace without hurry, and not long after dark, Yan Congyu took Lu Qin into the palace, and the big kitchen was here, Qi Xiangsi and Lu Li were studying with the cook how to make the venison they brought into cured meat.

The cook of Yuwangfu is a stocky fat uncle, rolling up his sleeves and sprinkling ingredients into the clay pot, kneading the meat pieces and looking up at Qi Xiangsi: "Miss Qi, what else do you want to add?" ”

Qi Xiangsi scooped out a spoonful of wine from the small jar and tasted it, and asked the cook: "Uncle Wang, this cooking wine has to be mixed again, I think the taste is a little lighter, what do you think?" ”

Uncle Wang tasted it: "It's a little lighter, do you want to try Huadiao?" ”

The assistant chef took out a jar of wine from the inside of the kitchen, and compared the two, Qi Xiangsi and Uncle Wang both chose the latter.

After pouring the wine, Qi Xiangsi put a few herbs to soak it, and then took it out after it was marinated.

Coming out of the kitchen, the night sky outside the eaves had starlight, and on the way back to the guest room, Qi Xiangsi asked about the day, Lu Li sat in another carriage and led away the people sent by Qi Henian, Qi Xiangsi They left from the north city gate, Lu Li and they went out from the south city gate, and went to the direction of the south official road outside Kyoto City, and stopped when they arrived at Cheng'an Town.

"Their men followed them all the way to Cheng'an Town, and after the carriage entered Zhuangzi, they were outside, and they followed us back to the city in an hour."

"After you come back, did they leave people in Cheng'an Town?"

Lu Li nodded: "The two of them stayed in the town. ”

"At night, they should find an opportunity to go to Zhuangzi." Qi Henian's suspicion is so serious, the people under his hands will not follow things so hastily, they went all the way to Cheng'an Town, and after entering Zhuangzi, they can't find out what they did inside, if they only went to Cheng'an Town to follow the results, these people can't make a difference.

What she could think of, the little prince must have thought of it, and it would not be useless to deceive them all the way to Cheng'an Town.

"Did the prince say when he would come back?"

"Senior brother didn't say it."

Qi Xiangsi nodded and walked into the house. In the palace at this time, a few lit glass lamps in Xiyi Palace were dazzling, and there were two people sitting in front of the couch, Shen Guifei looked at her son lazily on the couch for a long time, and then waved her sleeves and put them in her arms, and asked him: "Then what are you going to do?" ”

"Father should be very relieved."

"If you marry someone with a low status, your father will naturally rest assured, but the Qi family is too eye-catching at the moment." In recent years, the Qi family has caused a lot of criticism, but if it weren't for the high jump, who would be interested in criticizing them, a daughter entered the palace to seal the prince of Huasheng, and her niece became the prince's side concubine, deeply favored by the ten princes, and another married to the Yueyang Palace, and now there is another princess, that is, no matter how small the façade of the Qi family is, the green smoke of the ancestral tomb is too high.

Yan Congyu looked at her and didn't speak, the meaning in her eyes was clear, she arranged people to go to Yuwangfu without saying hello, and now she said that the Qi family was too eye-catching?

Knowing her son Mo Ruo's mother, the kung fu on the faces of the mother and son is first-class, even if she arranges for Qi Minying to go to the Yuwang Mansion, in front of her son, there must be no other meaning in this matter, just to take care of it, so Shen Guifei looked at him soothingly: "What does the mother mean, what do you think of that Qi girl." ”

Yan Congyu's face was slightly condensed, and Mama Su on the side breathed a sigh of relief for him, Niangniang asked knowingly, according to the temper of the prince, I am afraid that she will not say.

Shen Guifei was not in a hurry, took a sip of tea from the cup, and said earnestly: "Before you said that you would not marry, I followed your wishes and stopped you in front of your father, since you were a child, you don't like to have maids in the house to serve, and the people you sent there have been sent away, and now you say that you want to marry the five girls of the Qi family, how can the concubine know what you think in your heart, if you just want to get married, I don't think the Qi family is the best choice." ”

"The mother concubine thinks who's the right family."

"I think your cousin is good." Shen Guifei thought for a while, smiled and said, "If you think she is not good, the girl of the Han family is not bad, Wenwen is quiet and knowledgeable, and she will be a virtuous helper." ”

Shen Guifei didn't notice that her son's face had changed, for so many years, he hadn't seen him react like this when she mentioned anyone, where would there be such an opportunity in the future, so Shen Guifei asked him to say: "Yu'er, do you like what your mother said?" ”

"I don't like it."

Hearing his straightforward refusal, Shen Guifei didn't think it was a big deal, and mentioned all the unmarried girls of school age in Kyoto City, and then went back to the five girls of the Qi family, and said with a smile in her eyes: "Yu'er, then what do you say?" ”

Yan Congyu looked very calm: "Erchen wants to marry her." ”

"No reason?"

"Nope."

"If she doesn't marry?"

Yan Congyu looked stunned, and his answer was still the same: "Yes." ”

The smile on Shen Guifei's face overflowed, and she said slowly: "That's it, then you go back first." ”

After Yan Congyu left, Shen Guifei sat there for a long time, her expression was a little entangled, and Mama Su couldn't help but say, "Niangniang, isn't this exactly what you mean." ”

"That's what it meant in the first place." Shen Guifei thought that something was wrong, so she arranged for her to go to Yuwang's Mansion A few days later, Yu'er entered the palace and asked her to ask for a decree, although she had such an idea at the beginning, but it came too quickly.

Mama Su thinks this is a good thing, Niangniang has been looking forward to the prince being able to get married as soon as possible, since it is the candidate that both Niangniang and the prince like, isn't it as soon as possible: "The prince and Miss Qi are old acquaintances, and Miss Qi has also taken care of the prince a few times, maybe it was your arrangement that prompted the prince to enter the palace and invite you to ask for a decree." ”

"Enabling ...... Shouldn't it be! Shen Guifei's beautiful eyes widened, thinking of something, and there was a hint of uncertainty in her tone, "Something should have happened." ”

When she asked this, Mama Su also thought of it, and was about to speak, when a deep voice came from the door: "What shouldn't happen, Concubine Ai." ”

——————————————————————

It was late at night when Yan Congyu returned home, and there was no news from the palace for the next few days.

The days in the palace of King Yu were as usual, the venison pickled in the kitchen had already tasted, Uncle Wang hung them in the vent and drained them, Qi Xiangsi went over to take a look from time to time, and waited for Uncle Wang to make pickled meat stew.

The rest of the time, Qi Xiangsi also found an opportunity to disguise herself and go to Baihua Lane for free treatment.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and in the middle of November, the city of Kyoto, which is slowly cooling, suddenly has a heavy frost, and the cold wind blows overnight, and the next day, the outside of the house is covered with frost, and it seems to be snowing.

Although there were preparations before, the degree of sudden cold weather was still unexpected, followed by cold disease, many people in Kung Fu City were infected with wind chill in a few days, even the palace was not spared, the emperor and the queen mother fell ill.

The queen mother is very old, she has been suffering from minor illnesses, and now she can't stand such a drastic change in temperature, the high fever does not go away and the cough does not stop, seeing that the whole person is not good, after the news spread, some juniors have entered the palace, and the palaces outside the palace began to prepare vegetarian clothes.

Qi Xiangsi did not return to the hospital, she took Lu Li to be busy in the temporary medical hall in the city for three days, many patients were infected with wind chill, because the cold was too sudden, the body could not bear it, and the ensuing cough and asthma also occurred.

"Auntie, do you still feel cold in your limbs from time to time?" Qi Xiangsi checked the patient's tongue, and then rolled the patient's eyes in front of her, her face and whites of her eyes were already yellow, and she raised her hand and gently pressed her abdomen, "Does it rise?" ”

The aunt nodded: "It's cold, it's sweating for a while, I drank a bowl of porridge in the morning, and my stomach is uncomfortable." ”

Qi Xiangsi wrote down the prescription and handed it to her, and pointed to the front: "You go over there to grab the medicine, and he will teach you how to decoction." ”

The aunt grabbed the prescription and walked towards the front with the support of her family, and soon a new patient sat down, and after sitting down, she leaned over the table and covered her abdomen and couldn't speak, Qi Xiangsi turned his hand to give him a pulse, frowned, why can't he press the pulse.

Qi Xiangsi asked him to change hands, the pulse of his right hand was heavy and slow, and his hand was unusually cold. Qi Xiangsi immediately asked someone to carry him to the board bed behind him, and pulled up his sleeves, there were already signs of muscle cramps.

"What else is wrong with you?"

"Dizziness, want to throw up." After that, the patient leaned on his side and began to vomit, but he couldn't vomit, he covered his stomach and shouted pain, and then a doctor came over: "Fasha, go get the Nine Pain Pills." ”

Quickly took the Nine Pain Pills, gave the patient two pills with warm water, and the doctor pressed the patient's stomach and explained to Qi Xiangsi: "This is due to cold and dampness, and it is filled with filthy and turbid evil qi." ”

Qi Xiangsi nodded, the Nine Pain Pill has the effect of driving away turbidity yin and saving yang in warmth, which is faster than taking the decoction again.

In the afternoon, there were fewer patients in the hospital, Qi Xiangsi took the ginger soup handed by Lu Li, and walked out of the hospital after drinking it, a cold wind blew, and the air was full of medicinal smell.

The frost brought by the cold wave is almost over, but the weather will not warm up again, and winter in Kyoto Castle has arrived, and when the cold wave passes, snow will soon fall.

Not far away, someone hurriedly ran towards the medical hall with a child in his arms, Qi Xiangsi shook his hand and was about to turn around and go in to prepare for a doctor, when suddenly a heavy bell rang from the direction of the palace.

Everyone looked in that direction, and the dull bell rang one after another, and some of them sounded, twenty-seven, which was the death knell. 166 Reading Network
