Lu Qin is Yan Congyu's personal guard, and there are not many people he brought with him when he crosses the river this time, and when he is in danger of being infected with rat disease, it is even more impossible for Lu Qin to leave Yan Congyu for several days.

Qi Xiangsi looked at him, whether it was a pretense to go to Zhuzhou to find someone to help: "Lord Lu has stayed in Zhuzhou for several days, I don't know how things are going?" ”

"The prince ordered, and his subordinates have done it." Lu Qin replied with a calm expression.

Qi Xiangsi smiled: "Lord Lu doesn't have to be so strict, I'm just asking." ”

Lu Qin was stunned for a moment, and maintained his expression: "Thank you Miss Qi for taking care of the prince these days." ”

"That's my job." Qi Xiangsi looked at him with a smile, "Lord Lu went to Zhuzhou this time, and there were people who found people migrating across the river along the way. ”

"Yes, when the repair of the river is completed, the people will have to move back." Lu Qin didn't know what Qi Xiangsi was asking, and when he saw that she cared about the people of Yuehe, he said a few more words, but when he mentioned Zhuzhou, he mentioned it in a word, involving how to find the people, and he brought the topic over himself without Qi Xiangsi mentioning it.

"I wonder when the prince will leave for Kyoto?"

"The new batch has arrived, and when the prince recovers, he will return to Beijing to resume his life on the same day."

Qi Xiangsi nodded, if it was just for the disaster of crossing the river, at least he would have to stay here for a few more days, there were many places to be surveyed after the water level in the lower reaches of the river had receded, but the little prince wanted to return to Beijing at this time to resume his life.

Lu Qin looked at Miss Qi, but he didn't know how to speak, he saw that the prince treated her specially, and he didn't know what would happen after returning to Beijing

Qi Xiangsi didn't ask about Zhuzhou and his entourage, a few days later, Yan Congyu's illness was cured and he was ready to leave for Kyoto, and he went back with the elderly Imperial Doctor Luo, early this morning, the yard was cleaned up here, and he was about to leave, Lu Qin asked for the master's opinion: "Lord Wang, are you going to say goodbye to Miss Qi." ”

Yan Congyu stepped out of the courtyard, and the guards who saw him off outside had already opened the curtain for him, and he glanced at the rows of houses below, and then went directly into the carriage.

Lu Qin followed and looked down, he didn't know what the master was thinking, he had some regrets in his heart.

Not long after they set off, Qi Xiangsi and Jiang Ying carried a basket up together, and when they were about to reach the house over there, Jiang Ying suddenly spoke: "Today, the little prince seems to be going back to Beijing." ”

Qi Xiangsi looked up, and there was no one outside the courtyard: "It should have already set off." ”

"You followed Imperial Physician Chen to take care of the little prince for several days." Jiang Ying saw with his own eyes the dimness in the house that day, and the picture of the little prince pulling out a knife to kill someone after saving Miss Qi, he still remembers it vividly, and he really seems to be a god with a bad face.

"Everybody has to do it." Qi Xiangsi carried the basket to the open space in front of him with him, and took advantage of the good weather to dry the herbs again.

"Fortunately, the little prince is fine." Jiang Ying breathed a sigh of relief, "Otherwise, if we go back this time, I don't know if we will be kicked out of the hospital." ”

Qi Xiangsi smiled, Jiang Ying was quite embarrassed, he was the most ordinary person in these hospitals, he was recommended to teach abroad, and his father was a doctor and opened a small pharmacy.

It is very unlikely that someone like him will end up in the inner school, so for him there are more opportunities than dangers to come here, as long as he can go back to the house, maybe he will have the opportunity to go inside to teach.

"If something happens to the little prince, don't talk about us, Imperial Doctor Chen and they won't be able to get better." Qi Xiangsi spread the herbs on the sieve, and then put them on the shelf to dry, "So, he's going back now, and even Lord Song is relieved." ”

said it so bluntly, Jiang Ying was a little stunned, seeing Qi Xiangsi busy in front, his expression was slightly dazed.

In foreign teaching, most of them can't compare to her, even Imperial Doctor Chen, who was a little suspicious of her at the beginning, now looks at her differently, if she is not a daughter, plus her family background, she will definitely be able to enter the internal teaching.

Qi Xiangsi didn't know that he thought so much, and he couldn't dry the herbs for too long, so she urged him to go back: "I'll just watch it here, and you can help carry it when it's put away later." ”

After Jiang Ying went down, Qi Xiangsi found a clean place to sit down, gently pinched his arms, and looked up at the clear blue sky.

The sunny days brought a lot of hope to the people, and when the floods subsided, it was time to rebuild their homes.

Qi Xiangsi can't count how much food the court has lost because of this, but she can calculate that this trip back, she must be sure to be correct when she goes to teach inside.

With the credit of this time, Qi Henian has to fight for some benefits.

"Teach and learn from within, enter the palace." Qi Xiangsi muttered these gently, and suddenly Fu Rong's voice came from the bank of the Yue River, listening to her chatter, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong with the internal teaching?" ”

Qi Xiangsi saw that it was him: "Can Imperial Doctor Fu enter the palace when he is teaching inside?" ”

"I've followed the teacher into the palace a few times." Fu Rong was a little embarrassed when she heard her call herself Imperial Doctor Fu, "Miss Qi still calls me Doctor Fu." ”

Qi Xiangsi's eyes lit up, which means that if you enter the internal teaching practice, you will have the opportunity to enter the palace, and you don't have to wait until the end to become a medical woman.

Then Qi Xiangsi asked him again: "Did Imperial Doctor Wen take you there when he entered the palace to treat the nobles?" ”

Fu Rong nodded: "But it's just to listen and watch, some palaces are still not allowed to enter, if you have to choose a subject after entering the inner teaching, you can think about what to choose." ”

"What did Dr. Fu choose?"

"The teacher is best at Dafang Pulse and Women's Medicine, Imperial Physician Lu is good at wind science, your uncle Imperial Physician Qi has additional research on Dafang Pulse, and Imperial Physician Luo is good at Dafang Pulse and Small Fangmai."

Fu Rong said halfway, and her tone paused, she was a woman, and she finally entered the palace and went to Anle Hall, so the most important thing to learn was women's medicine: "There is also a Taiyi He in the Tai Hospital, he is responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of the Queen Mother, but he does not accept students." ”

Qi Xiangsi knew that this Imperial Physician He was not very old and had a very strange temper, and he should have taught some palace maids to help him in Anle Hall, but he didn't bring half of his apprentices, and was only ordered to treat the Queen Mother.

The one who can be appointed by the emperor to diagnose and treat the queen mother always has his strengths, and it is not so important if his temper is eccentric.

"In that case, I should consult Imperial Doctor Wen." What Qi Xiangsi is thinking about now is that she will have the opportunity to enter the palace after entering the internal teaching, Fu Rongneng can follow Imperial Doctor Wen, she may be even better.

"The teacher appreciates you." Fu Rong smiled, that smile was as like this warm sun, "When you enter the inner teaching, I will definitely recommend it for you." ”

Qi Xiangsi lowered his eyes and smiled, he was really a good person.

――――――――――――――――――――

In June, the weather in Zhuzhou was already hot, and after the flood, the water level quickly receded due to the sunny days that lasted for more than half a month, and the government sent people to rebuild their homes for the people, and the imperial court quickly sent people down to build the river embankment.

On June 19, Qi Xiangsi returned to Beijing.

At this time, more than a month has passed since they left Kyoto, not counting the way to come and go, Qi Xiangsi stayed in the river for more than 20 days, and the reward and punishment for this river flood in Kyoto has come down.

Last year, the officials sent to build the river embankment were dismissed from their posts and investigated, and it seems that the prince and the Maoguo Mansion were also implicated.

After these officials were investigated, the imperial court quickly sent people down to accept them, and the Song adults they met in Yuehe at that time were transferred from Zhuzhou.

Not only that, but in the case of the flooding of the river, the grain situation in recent years has been investigated, whether the officials have filled their own pockets, and whether they have falsely reported the amount.

The punishment is followed by the reward.

Unexpectedly, the most rewarded was not King Yu, who stayed there for more than ten days and almost had an accident due to the epidemic, but Prince Zhao, who had never left in Kyoto.

According to the legend, the trip of Yu Wangye to cross the river was entrusted by Zhao Wangye, and the people who were transferred by Yu Wangye when he crossed the river at that time were also instructed by Zhao Wangye.

To put it simply, Lord Yu's trip is to do things for Prince Zhao.

Originally, it was supposed to be the move of Yu Wangye to send people to Zhuzhou to deploy manpower and food to support the crossing of the river, but in the end, it was also Zhao Wangye who sent people to follow, and he made his own deployment without reporting to the imperial court in an emergency, although this matter was not in the right order, but the emperor still rewarded Zhao Wangye for this matter.

Qi Xiangsi listened to these things in the Tai Hospital, and couldn't help but be stunned, those who worked hard to endure hardships were all borne by the little prince Yu Wang, and how to enjoy the happiness and profit became Zhao Wangye.

Make wedding garments for others.

Qi Xiangsi poured a new cup of tea for Laixi, if the little prince didn't know about this matter, he would have swallowed a great grievance, but if he knew it in advance, wouldn't he be building momentum for Zhao Wangye.

Since it is not a boring character, it has been discussed a long time ago.

Thinking about it further, it is about the storage position, these are too far away for Qi Xiangxi, and she doesn't even have anything to do with it, but she can't restrain her thoughts and continue to go down if she thinks about it, this time the prince was implicated in the flood, but it was Zhao Wangye who benefited.

Prince Zhao is the ninth son of the emperor, born to Concubine De, who is very popular with the saints, and his mother's family is also quite powerful in the court.

The crown prince is not a descendant, he was recorded in the name of the former queen from the concubine when she was alive, and the Mao family, who was implicated with the prince, is the mother family of the former queen.

Nowadays, the queen mother only has one daughter, which means that there is no concubine in the saint, and all sons are treated equally, and several of them highlight their competitive advantages.

And the little prince, who seems to have the greatest competitive advantage, is now actually giving someone a hand!

Qi Xiangsi couldn't help sighing, Lai Xi happened to talk about Shen Guifei, seeing her sighing, he thought that she was resonating with herself, so she picked up the cup and took a sip of tea: "You think so too, I tell you, Shen Guifei almost didn't cry and fainted when King Yu came back." ”

Qi Xiangsi looked at him back to his senses: "What are you crying about?" ”

"King Yu didn't have an accident, he cried with joy!" Lai Xi pinched the cup and sighed, his expression was worried enough, "You don't know, the news came from the other side of the river, and Shen Guifei learned that the little prince was infected with the epidemic, and she fainted directly in the arms of the saint." ”

"Then this time in terms of meritorious deeds, King Yu doesn't seem to have received any reward." Qi Xiangsi felt a little funny when he looked at him like that, "In exchange for his life, it seems to be a bit of a loss." ”

Lai Xi squinted at her: "You don't know, where are Shen Guifei and King Yu who lack rewards, they will give whatever they want, how can they care about that reward, as long as King Yu comes back safely, Shen Guifei will be satisfied." ”

Qi Xiangsi smiled and said nothing, what to give and what to reward for meritorious deeds are two different things, saying that she is the most favored son, she can't see it.

"You've been there for more than a month, but I'm worried." Laixi saw that she was distracted again, and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of her eyes, "You are the only woman among the people who went this time, and the hospital didn't reward you?" ”

"No, there are palace maids." Qi Xiangsi smiled, "The ones who should be rewarded are also Imperial Doctor Chen, I just went to help, what great credit can I have." ”

"But you didn't take care of the little prince for several days." Laixi approached her and whispered, "Maybe I'll reward you." ”

Qi Xiangsi shook her head with a smile, a little unbelieving, but the next day, what Lai Xi said came true, someone from the inner palace summoned her, and Shen Guifei wanted to see her

Qi Xiangsi didn't expect to enter the palace so quickly for the second time, and it was still in this way.

The one who came to summon was the palace lady next to Shen Guifei, who looked very kind, and after being taken into the Tai Hospital, she saw Qi Xiangsi, smiled and said that Shen Guifei wanted to see her.

Qi Xiangsi followed the palace mother into the palace, and the palace mother did not speak along the way, and when she arrived at Xiyi Palace, the grandmother smiled and said a word of invitation to her.

Walking into Xiyi Palace, which is comparable to the place where the queen lives in Kunhe Palace, even the bonsai at the entrance is cut without a trace of branches, and then you go into the path on both sides of the lush bushes, which makes people feel comfortable.

There are flowers in again, the same meticulous, a few pots of flowers placed on the side of the flower bed are even against the number of flowers that can be counted, the flowers are delicate, and there is no defeat at all.

The peach blossom trees near the wall are now hanging fruit, and the branches on them are very beautiful after being pruned, and the fruits are plump, although they are only used for decoration, they are full of life, and in this courtyard, the high wall does not seem so dull.

Shen Guifei is very good at enjoying life, especially exquisite.

Gong Ma led Qi Xiangsi up the steps, and outside, the latter was brought in by someone and then brought her in, Qi Xiangsi stepped into the house, and was greeted by a faint fragrance, and the room was still full of coolness from the ice basin in the corner.

The hand-embroidered blanket was spread all the way to the threshold, Qi Xiangsi lowered his head slightly, and the clearest thing to see was the pattern on the blanket, a good picture of a blooming peony.

When she walked further, Gong Ma stopped: "Niangniang, the five girls of the Qi family bring it." ”

Qi Xiangsi knelt down and saluted, and his elegant and lazy voice sounded: "Raise your head and let the palace take a look." ”

Qi Xiangsi raised his head, Shen Guifei's appearance came into view, even if he had heard of it before, he would still be amazed when he saw it in person, Shen Guifei was so beautiful.

There are many beautiful women in the palace, there are all kinds of things, Qi Xiangsi has seen so many at the dinner that day, but Shen Guifei's beauty makes people feel comfortable, her delicate face is slightly powdered, and she is properly maintained without a trace of wrinkles, she is even more beautiful and moving in a gorgeous palace dress, the golden step on her head is shining, and the most wonderful thing is her expression.

Like a woman who doesn't know the world, she doesn't see the city at all, she is elegant and lazy, and her beautiful eyes are comfortable when she looks at people, and she seems to be very easy to get along with.

"Oh, it turns out that such a handsome girl took care of Yu'er for a few days." Shen Guifei also looked at Qi Xiangsi seriously, and then said with a smile to the palace lady who was serving on the side, "The Qi family is willing to send her to the Tai Hospital, and they also go to the Yuehe River to endure hardships." ”

Gong Ma replied with a smile: "The Qi Taiyi has good medical skills, I heard that the five girls of the Qi family are quite talented in this area and were sent to the Tai Hospital, if they come to Anle Hall in the future, it will not be the blessing of the harem." ”

"That's reluctant." Shen Guifei saw that Qi Xiangsi's expression was more and more full of kindness, and Qi Xiangsi, who was almost looking at it, was furious in her heart, so she ordered someone to take the reward, "This palace learned that you took good care of King Yu in Yuehe, and this is also what you deserve." ”

Qi Xiangsi glanced at the box, it was really a mother and son, and he was as heroic as he shot it, with a box of gold ingots.

"Thank you for the reward." Qi Xiangsi knelt down and thanked her, so she would not shirk.

Shen Guifei hummed lightly, raised her hand and waved it lightly, Qi Xiangsi got up, bowed down and retreated outside the house, and was led out of Xiyi Palace by the palace people.

Shen Guifei in the house still maintained that movement, leaned down lightly in the middle of the sound, and supported her chin with her left hand, as if asking the palace mother on the side: "What is her father's official position from the third room of the Qi family." ”

"Niangniang, it's Lord Qingqi of Guanglu Temple."

"Guanglu Siqing." Shen Guifei chattered all over again, "Since the official of Sanpin said that it is not small, how can he be willing to send his daughter to the hospital." ”

"The five girls of the Qi family were born in Huizhou, and they were raised until they were twelve years old before they were taken back to Kyoto.

Shen Guifei's eyes flashed a glimpse of what kind of mantle a girl inherited: "That girl looks quite clever." After a pause, Shen Guifei added, "The appearance is not bad." ”

The room was quiet for a while, and Shen Guifei sat up again: "You go and inquire about this girl again." ”

She still doesn't know what kind of temper her son has, she doesn't even have a maid who serves her closely, and now she has been served for several days, but she can't check it carefully

After leaving Xiyi Palace, Qi Xiangsi followed the palace people towards the palace gate on the other side of Jiusi Lane, and two anxious palace maids suddenly appeared in front of him halfway.

It seemed that they all knew each other, and the two palace maids hurriedly stepped forward after seeing the palace people with Qi Xiangxi: "Sister Rulin, you have a hand here, and the little county lord is in the garden." ”

"Why don't you send someone to ask for a doctor." The palace man Rulin saw that they were in a hurry, "It just so happens that I want to go over, or you can go with me to invite." ”

"The little county lord won't let us pass." The palace people stomped their feet anxiously, "Anle Hall is too far away from here, the little county lord said that he wanted to go out of the palace by himself, so we stopped him." ”

"Why not?"

The palace maids looked at each other, and one of them whispered: "The little county lord climbs the tree and wants to dig out the bird's nest"

Rulin understood that she was afraid that others would know what happened to her, so she refused to let the imperial doctor show her, and she was unwilling to let the palace people carry her to Anle Hall, but if she was allowed to leave the palace like this, the princess would be held accountable, and these few people would have to go around without eating.

Rulin suddenly thought of Qi Xiangsi who was following her, and had an idea in her heart: "Miss Qi, please come with me." ”

Without waiting for her to answer, the two palace maids stepped forward and pushed her to the garden next to her.

"I'm just a student from a foreign teacher." Qi Xiangsi identified herself for herself, she was not a doctor, nor was she a person from Anle Hall, she pulled her to look after others' injuries, they were not afraid that they would not?

"Miss Qi has been teaching abroad for more than a year." Rulin replied to her calmly, "The medical girl in Anle Hall has only studied for one or two years. ”

Qi Xiangsi was silent, how could a palace maid in Xiyi Palace be such a big master.

When she saw the little county lord in the mouth of the palace maid, Qi Xiangsi understood why Rulin called her over, this little county lord who looked like he was only seven or eight years old, a pair of eyes were about to reveal the word thief, she sat in the pavilion and looked at the few people who came, and her expression looked very angry: "It's not to tell you not to find someone to come." ”

"Little county lord, she won't say it." The palace maids hurriedly assured that it was not easy for them to be sent to serve the little county lord, and they had to listen to the little county lord, and they had to protect their own heads.

Xiyue glanced at Qi Xiangsi and didn't believe it: "Let her go, you dare to say it, I want you all to lose your heads!" ”

"County Lord, she really won't say it, she is a person from the Tai Hospital, and she just met the concubine Niangniang." The palace maid asked for help from Rulin, and Rulin nodded, "Don't worry, little county lord, she won't say it." ”

"Really?" Xiyue looked at Qi Xiangsi for verification.

Qi Xiangsi was full of thoughts of leaving first, and finally under the gaze of everyone, she nodded: "I promise." ”

Half-ringing, the little county lord sitting there compromised: "Okay then. ”

The palace maid hurriedly pulled Qi Xiangsi over: "Little county lord, you have to show her." ”

Xiyue reluctantly pulled up the hem of her skirt, her left ankle was red and swollen when she took off her shoes, Qi Xiangsi touched it lightly, and immediately there was a painful snort, looking up at her, the little county lord's little face was still gritting his teeth and enduring.

Qi Xiangsi touched everywhere, gently held her feet and ankles with both hands, and slowly turned: "It's dislocated." ”

Xiyue was stunned: "Then what should I do!" ”

The puzzled expression instantly turned painful, Xiyue looked at her with wide eyes, Qi Xiangsi let go of her hand and asked her, "Does it still hurt?" ”

"You!" Xiyue stretched out her hand and pointed at her, her pretty little face was bitter and angry, "You actually did this." ”

It's obviously still soft, but suddenly it turns down hard, and it hurts to death!

"I'll apply medicine when I go back." Qi Xiangsi got up, Xiyue felt that her ankle didn't hurt so much, put her hands on the palace maid, and followed Qi Xiangsi all the time, "You are from the hospital." ”

Seeing that Qi Xiangsi didn't answer, Xiyue's eyes rolled: "Where is there such a medical girl in Tai Hospital, who are you!" ”

"County Lord, this is indeed the medical girl of the Tai Hospital." Rulin smiled and took the topic away, "Are you feeling better now, or send you to the Queen Mother." ”

"Nope." Xiyue immediately vetoed, "I want to leave the palace." "If you let the imperial grandmother know that she is climbing a tree here, then you can't tell the princess.

"We'll send you out." The palace maid put on her shoes and helped her up, Xiyue was not at ease, and turned her head to look at Qi Xiangxi, "Hey, if you say it, you will also lose your head!" ”

Thank you, the palace maid hurriedly sent this ancestor out, Qi Xiangsi followed Rulin to the palace gate, Rulin reminded her again that she couldn't tell what she had just done, Qi Xiangsi nodded and went back to the hospital

Qi Xiangsi quickly forgot about this incident, and a few days later, she met the little princess in the Tai Hospital.
