Chapter 70 Received the princess's eyes
The seventieth time received the princess's white eyes
Qin Ying didn't think too much about it when she interrupted Imperial Doctor Lin to prescribe a prescription. She left the word low-key behind, but firmly remembered that her duty to enter the palace was to make the prince heal.
Pinching the silver needles of different lengths, deep or shallow, screwing into the five acupuncture points of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Qin Ying remembered what kind of trouble her overstepping her actions would cause to herself.
Thinking of many things she had encountered in her previous life, most of them were caused by her own absence in her position but seeking her own government, she knelt down on the woolen carpet and heard Queen Changsun call her name lightly.
Qin Ying had no choice but to turn around under Imperial Physician Lin's complicated and indescribable expression, and gave a big salute to Empress Changsun, she lay on the ground with her hands and head, and made ten out of ten respects: "-Xiaodao has seen the queen mother." β
"Get up." Empress Eldest Sun bowed slightly, and the bright bead pendant in her ear swayed with her movements.
Hearing this, Qin Ying straightened up, and her eyes swept over the queen mother who was sitting three steps away from her.
Although Empress Changsun has already given birth to several children, she is not yet thirty years old. The face is slightly powdered, and the bun is loosely shaken. There is an indescribable grace and solemnity in the elegant temperament.
"Why didn't Imperial Doctor Lin administer needles to His Highness, but you did it?" The eldest grandson queen said. Her voice is not loud, but with a natural coercion, she has a fight with her cousin Empress Xiao.
Qin Ying didn't dare to deceive in front of the queen, not to mention that there were palace attendants in the palace who had watched all the passing, so she told the truth: "Imperial Doctor Lin wants to prescribe a prescription for His Royal Highness to reduce fever, and Xiaodao thought that the boiling time was very long, and the effect was a little slow after drinking the decoction, so he built a needle to reduce fever, but Taiyi despised Xiaodao and refused to adopt it." Xiao Dao dared to use Imperial Doctor Lin's needle box. Please ask the queen to punish Xiaodao for bumping into the imperial doctor and taking the liberty of administering needles. β
Imperial Physician Lin was in a cold sweat when he heard this, and he hurriedly bowed down to Empress Changsun to ask for his guilt.
Empress Eldest Sun looked immovable, calmly like an ancient well without waves.
Imperial Physician Lin trembled like chaff in the silence. He knew that the queen mother had a good temper on weekdays, but once she brushed the scales, the person who angered the queen would definitely not end well.
Imperial Physician Lin knew that Empress Eldest Sun was very fond of her eldest son Li Chengqian, and he felt that his rank was probably not guaranteed.
Sure enough, he heard Empress Eldest Sun say lightly: "...... Let's go down and prescribe a recuperation recipe for a few days. He breathed a long sigh of relief, but her next words were taken aback, "Today's matter, this palace will personally tell His Majesty, how His Majesty wants to punish Yu Er, etc., then it is not for this palace to call the shots." β
"For the ...... For the sake of Lin Mou's pulse diagnosis in the harem for many years, I beg my mother to atone for my sins. He bowed his head again and again, and said in trepidation.
Qin Ying, who was kneeling next to Imperial Doctor Lin, was calm and composed: "Queen Xie." She stayed in the harem for several years in her previous life, so she naturally knew the temperament of the eldest grandson queen, and now she can only answer like this.
Empress Eldest Sun didn't look at him, as if she had never known him.
Seeing that he was bored with a plea, Imperial Physician Lin held his knees and exited the Lizheng Palace.
The two palace attendants in the palace also seemed to feel the increasing coercion emanating from the eldest grandson empress, and they also left.
So except for Li Chengqian, who was still sleeping on the couch, Qin Ying and Empress Changsun looked at each other silently.
"You have always put the health and well-being of Your Highness first, and you have done a good job." Empress Eldest Sun sighed, "Some time ago, the palace also watched your blessing ceremony in the Chongjiao Palace, and when I see you again today, the palace almost forgot about it." β
Qin Ying pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The queen mother and nobles are so forgetful."
"You're from Shuchuan, right? There was a bit of an accent in the words. The eldest grandson seemed to be interested in befriending Qin Ying, and chatted with her slowly.
"My ancestral home is in northern Shaanxi, and I stayed in Yizhou for a long time when I grew up, and I unconsciously became like this." Qin Ying was secretly surprised by the empress's meticulous observation. She didn't lie either. She has been practicing in Zhangren Mountain for a hundred years, and every day she faces a master who speaks Sichuan Yin, and the original standard official dialect is naturally brought into a half-baked Sichuan Yin.
Empress Eldest Sun chatted a few words, and quietly changed the topic back: "This palace knows that you Taoist people are used to keeping your body and hiding it. But Hongu hopes that you can maintain the fearlessness of today. Whatever cure you want to try, just use it. β
Qin Ying snorted lightly: "Xiaodao is already out of line this time, you can't make a mistake again and again." Wanyan rejected the queen's expectations of her.
In her previous life, she was too fearless and arrogant, and finally ended up in a terrible end.
When Empress Eldest Sun heard Qin Yingmian's answer, her eyebrows were still kind and kind: "Qin Ying, there is an ancient saying that the ignorant are fearless. The people in the Imperial Doctor's Department basically know that the prince is stubborn, and you are different......"
"What is he suffering from?" Qin Ying intercepted Empress Eldest Sun's words.
Empress Changsun didn't answer immediately, but just picked up the wolf brush that Imperial Physician Lin didn't have time to clean up, wrote two words on the light blue silk book, and handed it to Qin Ying.
"Quench your thirst. His Highness was suffering from thirst. Qin Ying muttered. Looking at the hairpin flower written by the queen's mother, the doubts in my mind were finally solved.
In her previous life, she asked countless people, but she never got a definite answer. In this life, she accidentally asked the truth.
Qin Ying said in a dry voice: "If Xiaodao is not mistaken, there are many complications to quench thirst. The medical officers of the Imperial Physician's Department were afraid that they would suffer the wrath of the Son of Heaven because they would cause His Highness's side illness, so they only prescribed conservative decoctions to relieve thirst. β
Thinking of this, she understood why in the past few days, she only saw the imperial doctor come to diagnose the pulse and prescribe prescriptions, but she didn't see them doing anything else. It turns out that those people are all protecting themselves.
But did they take into account the mood of the patient? How much torture should it be for a young man to lie in one place all day and not be able to get off the ground? How could they, as healers, be so ruthless?
Qin Ying remembered that she had already sworn to His Majesty when she entered the palace, and Li Chengqian would not leave lightly before he recovered.
She's having a hard time riding a tiger now.
It is better to rely on cautious medical officers to quench your thirst than to be happy on your own.
"Xiaodao will do his best. However, Xiaodao is not too sure, Niangniang remembers to ask for a Danshu iron coupon for Xiaodao in advance, in case it angers Long Yan, there is a guilty person on his head. Qin Ying knelt down and said.
The Danshu Iron Coupon was handed down from the Han Dynasty and could be exempted from capital crimes. Qin Ying still has lingering feelings about the death of her previous life, so she said this to Empress Changsun, also leaving a way out for this life.
Empress Eldest Sun felt that there was a joke in her words, and she couldn't help but hook the corners of her mouth.
At this time, the two people stopped talking, and the palace attendants knocked on the door, entered the hall in turn, presented half a basin of water and a dry cloth towel, and began to give a cold compress to the feverish prince.
Qin Ying quietly walked out of the Lizheng Hall and ran into the prince's sister Li Lizhen.
The eldest princess came to visit Li Chengqian in the East Palace, and happened to hear about Qin Ying's deeds from Imperial Doctor Lin, and she was very dissatisfied with her actions: "You are not a medical officer, how can you give an injection to the eldest brother?" Li Lizhi said and didn't forget to supply Qin Ying with a blank eye.
Qin Ying was very helpless about the eldest princess's unreasonable trouble: "It's the gossip that meddles." She lowered her head and said in a very insincere tone.
"Hmph. If you disturb His Highness's eldest brother again, His Highness will never spare you. β
Li Lizhen's low threat didn't seem to have played its due role, because Qin Ying suddenly raised her eyes and looked directly at the eldest princess who was half a head shorter than herself.
"ββIt's not to mess with His Royal Highness the Prince, Xiaodao is very confident in his needle pricking skills, would Her Royal Highness the Princess want to try it?"
Qin Ying replied expressionlessly, and slowly raised the square needle box in his hand.
Li Lizhen was still an eleven-year-old child, so she was naturally afraid of the box that hid countless silver needles. Being frightened by Qin Ying, she stomped her feet twice fiercely, and ran into the main hall like the wind to find the queen mother to complain about the black.
It just so happened that a few palace attendants came out of the palace, first seeing the eldest princess angry, and then seeing Qin Ying's indifferent expression, he made a judgment in his heart. Since then, their attitude towards Qin Ying has been like godliness.
Empress Eldest Sun listened to Li Lizhen wiping her tears while accusing Qin Ying of how she bullied people too much, and she didn't take it to heart at all, she felt that when children get along with each other, there will inevitably be friction, and it is harmless to quarrel and quarrel.
At this time, she completely regarded Qin Ying as a child as big as Li Li, rather than a Taoist priest who entered the palace to pray for the prince's blessing and healing.
In the evening, Li Shimin went to the sleeping hall of the eldest grandson queen for dinner. In the gap between the official maid and the maid giving vegetables to the two, the eldest grandson queen talked about the things in the Lizheng Palace.
Li Shimin commented after listening: "Imperial Doctor Lin underestimated Qin Ying. He didn't expect that Qin Ying was young but a hard stubble. β
The eldest grandson queen was wonderful: "Erlang punishes them or not?"
He has been married to his eldest grandson for many years, and he knew that she had an idea in her heart at a glance, so Li Shimin gave her the question to answer: "What do you want?"
"Let Imperial Physician Lin cooperate with Qin Ying to cure Cheng Qian's thirst. Imperial Physician Lin is conservative, while Qin Ying is active, and the two of them just complement each other. The eldest grandson said with a smile.
Li Shimin sighed: "This punishment is really unique, the two of them have to hold a grudge against me, but poor me carries a black pot on your back every time you are bubbling with bad water."
The eldest grandson smiled at her husband's complaints, both true and false, and talked about her agreement with Qin Ying, of course, including Qin Ying's request for an iron coupon for the Danshu book.
"Danshu Iron Coupon? His tone is really not small. Li Shimin narrowed his eyes.
"How?" Empress Eldest Sun only knew that it could be exempted from capital crimes, but she didn't know what else to do.
"The Danshu iron coupon is engraved with the official rank and title of the field, and it is hereditary. As long as you get it, doesn't it mean that future generations don't have to worry about making a living? Li Shimin explained in a muffled voice, "He is calculating now." β
The two of them only talked, and the stilted cups on several cases were bubbling with a rich fragrance, but they could not lead them to pick up the silver chopsticks and start the banquet.
"A valuable thing like a Danshu iron coupon can't be promised lightly...... If Qin Ying can make the crown prince heal, it is probably possible to give him an official and a half-position. The eldest grandson pondered for a while.
Li Shimin stroked his beard and concluded: "Even if you give him a Taoist temple in the capital as private property, you can do it, as long as Qin Ying has real skills."
In fact, Qin Ying was just talking casually, not thinking about the Danshu Iron Coupon. But as the saying goes, the speaker has no intention and the listener has the intention.
Just after dinner, Qin Ying sneezed six or seven times in a row. She had a deep suspicion that she was suffering from a cold and that she had some precursors of fever.
In her light sleep, she inexplicably dreamed of Liu Yun.
There are only her and Liu Yun in the huge Chongjiao Hall. The other party sat in front of a few cases to make perfumes, while she herself stood far away at the door, not knowing whether to enter or not.
After hesitating for a long time, she felt that she needed to say thank you first.
"Last time...... Thank you for telling me about Mei Sanniang. She stumbled.
Liu Yun responded indifferently, put down the long tongs holding the incense pills, and looked at Qin Ying with a deep gaze, as if he wanted to see through her three souls and seven spirits.
"You didn't come to my dream to inform me of bad news, did you?" Qin Ying held back the tremors all over her body and asked.
She was frightened by Liu Yun as an uninvited guest in her dream last time, and she was extra vigilant this time.
"Just come over and see if you've been stupid to death." He said.
Qin Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again in an instant, "Do you live in Chang'an now?" Where should I look for you when I want to find you? β
She has Li Chunfeng's fish talisman on her body, and she can leave the palace at will.
Liu Yun shook his head coldly and said, "I live everywhere." Don't look for me. Say my name when you need me, so that I will naturally appear in your dreams that night. β
"How can you live anywhere?" Qin Ying said seriously, "In the future, when I have money, I will build you a room that is more magnificent than the palace to live in." β
Oni feed on incense and like to lodge on idols.
She had long wanted to erect a statue and an ancestral hall to support him, in return for the news that he had sued her Mei Sanniang in prison.
Now she finally got her thoughts out of the way.
But thank you can't just be said with words, but also with corresponding behavior.
Liu Yun was stunned. He remembered that thousands of years ago, Qin Ying had said word for word to himself in the same tone.
"Qin Ying, why can I only stay in this hut?" When he was a teenager, he crossed his feet, stretched out his hand from the very high window, and grabbed Qin Ying's sleeve.
"ββLater, when I have money, I will build you a room that is more magnificent than the palace." Eight-year-old Qin Ying patted her chest with a swear, revealing a few white teeth and laughing.
He loosened Qin Ying's curved wide sleeves, waved his hand again and again, and said, "I don't want to live in a grand house, I want to live in your heart."
"Why?" Qin Ying asked directly without understanding.
He coughed dryly, "Because ...... Oh, you don't understand either. β
"If you don't say it, then I'll go and endorse it, and see when I can learn to unravel the curse in this house, so that you can come out early and play with me." Qin Ying jumped off the ladder made of wooden bars and gradually disappeared from his field of vision.
The incense pills turned into dancing ashes in the blazing incineration, and the smell of ambergris permeated the air for a long time.
Liu Yun came back to his senses: it turned out that she was the Qin Ying he knew thousands of years ago...... But how did she become a demon now?
