142: Affection
As soon as the autumn equinox arrived, two major events occurred in the palace.
The first thing is that Xia Ruan's known An Concubine was pregnant and was named Concubine An.
The second thing was what Xia Ruan did not expect, the beauty Shui Yuanmu sent by the Western Regions was also pregnant and was named a nobleman.
This made Xia Ruan have to think more about who this water yuan is.
Every year in the Western Regions, Daqin will send beauties, and none of them can be canonized, let alone pregnant.
Even if you are pregnant, you will never release the news.
This had to make Xia Ruan look at Shui Yuanmu with admiration.
Before Xia Ruan could think about it, the people around her began to get busy.
In the past, Concubine An, and now Concubine An proposed to Emperor Jianguang that she wanted to taste the tea in Danyang County, and Emperor Jianguang agreed without thinking about it. This time, Xia Ruan still asked the Wang steward to deal with this matter, because the people in the palace came quickly, and they bought tea in Xia Ruan's hand at a high price, which made everyone almost red-eyed.
Concubine An wants to eat things from Danyang County, but it's just the beginning......
Next, her appetite seems to be getting more and more tricky, not only to eat Danyang County's tea, but also to eat the pastries over there. The people around were frightened by Concubine An's actions, and felt that she was a little pampered and arrogant.
But Xia Ruan knew that Emperor Jianguang liked Concubine An, so these things were all small things for Emperor Jianguang. As long as Concubine An can give birth to an heir with peace of mind, these Jianguang Emperors will not take it to heart.
Sure enough, Emperor Jianguang actually stayed by Concubine An's side every night this time, and reminded the eunuchs around him every morning: "Whatever Niangniang wants to eat, you must bring it." Do you understand? ”
It is said that the little eunuchs around him who were frightened at that time were at a loss, and as soon as Emperor Jianguang left, they hurriedly ordered people to do this.
The love of the emperor is what many women in the world want, and it is also the most terrifying.
What Concubine An is doing now makes the eldest prince's biological mother, Concubine Zeng, angry.
But in the court, now the eldest prince is proud-
Thinking of this, Xia Ruan couldn't help but think of the matter of the eldest prince's previous life, if it weren't for the fact that Yang Ge Lao offended someone who shouldn't be offended, he wouldn't have fallen so quickly.
"Miss." Duran walked in. looked at Xia Ruan Dao. "Father has come back and said he wants to see you."
Du Ming is back?
Xia Ruan nodded: "Let him in." ”
After a while, Du Ming slowly walked in.
At this time, Du Ming seemed to be a little thinner than a few days ago. Xia Ruan frowned. Then he said to Duran: "Go to the treasury and take out the ginseng sent by the Nan family." Replenish Dr. Du's body. “
As soon as these words came out, Duran, who was standing on the side, was stunned.
A few days ago, the Nan family sent a lot of things, and the most expensive one was this century-old ginseng. But Xia Ruan frowned and wanted to retreat. The people who sent the things that day, when they heard that Xia Ruan wanted to accept the things, they actually knelt at Xia Ruan's feet in fright, saying that if Xia Ruan didn't accept them, they would be kicked out of the Nan family.
Xia Ruan had no choice but to put things away, and Duran thought that Xia Ruan had softened his heart.
When Du Ruo heard this, he pinched Du Lan's nose and said, "Miss, this is not soft-hearted, if Miss doesn't accept these things, I'm afraid she will offend the Nan family." If you think about it, these are the people who often walk around the little boy of the Nan family, and they can all say these words, which is nothing more than saying the meaning of the little boy. ”
If you can't be friends, then you're enemies.
"Miss, this ...... Not okay? Du Ruo asked tentatively, after all, these things are too precious for her, although her father went to Beijing to help Miss this time, but Miss set a good family for her sister.
Yoo Chang-won is a very smart person, and his father and sister are also very fond of him.
Xia Ruan smiled: "Go ahead." ”
Seeing that Xia Ruan insisted on this, Du Lan didn't dare to continue to say more, so he could only kneel down and leave after thanking him.
Seeing his daughter like this, Du Ming naturally knew that the ginseng sent by Xia Ruan was definitely not an ordinary thing, and he looked at Xia Ruan a little nervously: "Miss, the little one is really scared." ”
"Doctor Du, this is what you deserve, this matter has nothing to do with you, I ......" Xia Ruan thought for a while before changing the topic, "How is my grandfather?" ”
Although he got Haruki, his grandfather's poison was already too deep, as Du Ruo said, even if the poison was cured, it would be a few more years of life. Chunmu's thing, Xia Ruan thought that Du Ruo was exaggerating at first, but later after she learned the origin of this thing in Nanting's mouth, she understood a little bit in her heart, why would someone go so hard to poison her grandfather like this.
"Miss, Cheng Guogong is no longer in the way, the poison in his body has been completely removed, and he only needs to raise it for a few more days before he can walk on the ground." Du Ming hung his head and said, "It's just this poisonous ......."
Du Ming had more or less heard his daughter Du Ruo talk about this matter, so he had to be a little more vigilant than usual.
Du Ruo is daughter's body, it is naturally inconvenient to be on Cheng Guogong's body, but after Du Ming saw it in person, he was also frightened by such a poison.
Half of Cheng Guogong's body is almost black, if Chunmu is sent a few days later, then Cheng Guogong is really hopeless.
He checked in Chengguo's mansion for a long time, and only after the most did he find out that all the sources of poison had actually been in the pear blossom garden where Chengguo Gong lived.
Under those pear blossom trees, there are more than a dozen small burdens.
Because it has been buried for too long, the medicinal powder inside has almost disappeared, and Li Changfeng has not slept all night at that time, and Du Ming can still hear the sound of crying outside in the house.
It's just this poison, who would have thought that it would be used like this?
Du Ming thought for a moment before continuing: "This poison is hard to prevent, Miss, you have to be careful in the future." ”
Xia Ruan nodded, the people of Nixi are good at using poison, and for them, these are nothing more than some small means.
After waiting for a while, Du Ming asked embarrassedly: "Miss, I ...... the little girl's relatives."
"I still want to ask Doctor Du what he means about this family matter, after all, you are Du Ruo's biological father." Xia Ruan heard Du Ming ask like this, so he said softly, "Since Liu Changyuan is doing business with me, he can't enter the official career, which is not against the meaning of the Du family's ancestors." It's just that his family background may not be very good, but don't worry, Doctor Du, I will definitely not let Du Ruo be wronged. ”
After Du Ming heard this, he couldn't help but redden.
In fact, when he was in Zhuangzi, he had heard more or less about Steward Wang and Liu Changyuan. Liu Changyuan is a filial son and a sensible and obedient child, Du Ming likes it very much. On the day he first entered Beijing, Liu Changyuan personally came to pick him up, and he took care of many things. So Du Ming's love for Liu Changyuan is a little more.
Du Ming asked his daughter in private, and from her daughter's mouth, she didn't seem to hear half of her displeasure.
It's just that Du Ming thinks that his daughter is a little high and climbs Liu Changyuan.
Although Liu Changyuan has not done anything now, many things in Danyang County are handled by Liu Changyuan, and Du Ming can see that Liu Changyuan must be a rare talent in the future.
So he was a little hesitant.
Xia Ruan thought that Du Ming was unhappy, and added: "If Dr. Du does not agree, then this family matter will be stopped." ”
"No, no, miss." Du Ming gathered his thoughts, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't know how to thank you." ”
After finishing speaking, Du Ming knelt in front of Xia Ruan.
"If it weren't for Miss, Xiao Hejing would have been dead for a long time." Du Ming said as he suppressed the sourness in his heart, "Miss, your great kindness and great virtue cannot be repaid by the small one......"
Du Ming is an honest person, so Du Ruo and Du Lan are the people around her and the least likely to betray her.
If someone treats her sincerely, she will naturally treat them well.
So Xia Ruan didn't think that Du Ming should be grateful to her.
Xia Ruan smiled slightly: "Doctor Du, you can get up, this is what I should do, Du Ruo and Du Lan are very good, I should have thanked you this time, why do you want to thank me?" And if Du Ruo has a child in the future, I will ask people to buy a house for Dr. Du in the suburbs of Beijing, so that you can not go against the will of your ancestors, but also teach this child medical skills. After all, wouldn't it be a pity if such a powerful medical skill was lost? ”
Du Ming cried when he heard this.
He never thought that he would show such a look in front of Xia Ruan.
Although he is a descendant of Mu Changku, he also knows that they are actually unable to see the light of day.
Because Mu Nagaku is a person from the former Chaotai Hospital.
A long time ago, Du Ming was thinking about Du Ruo and Du Lan's relationship, their family didn't have much money, but Du Ming was reluctant to let his daughter marry someone casually. He doesn't have a son, so he will hand over all his life's learning to Du Ruo, for Du Ming, he still hopes that his medical skills can be passed on.
After all, Zu Shangmu Changqi was a well-known person in the previous dynasty.
Now from Xia Ruan's meaning, he can hear that his Du family will have a successor in the future.
This skill will not be lost in the hands of his daughter.
"Miss, I'...... Thank you, little thank you. Du Ming's throat choked up badly, because he heard the words he wanted to hear the most.
Xia Ruan helped Du Ming up, and smiled: "Then what does Doctor Du think about this?" ”
"If Liu Gongzi has no opinion, I am naturally willing to marry my daughter to Liu Gongzi." Du Ming replied without thinking about it this time.
Because Du Ming couldn't pick out half of Liu Changyuan's not.
On the contrary, there is a feeling that the old man looks at the future uncle, and the more he looks at it, the more satisfied he becomes.
After Xia Ruan heard Du Ming say this, he was also relieved.
After all, for her, this is to help Liu Changyuan fulfill a wish.
In his previous life, even if that person liked Du Ruo no matter how much he liked him, he couldn't give Du Ruo a name, and it was impossible to accept Du Ruo's feelings.
After the end, Du Ruoyin endured all the grief and returned to Zhuangzi with Liu Changyuan's corpse.
The love of the previous life is fateful.
The love of this life will eventually become a family.
Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of Xia Ruan's mouth......
Her feelings for herself are becoming more and more confused.
Because she knows that in her life, she will not be tempted by anyone again.
The feeling that hurts into the bone marrow, once tasted it, has made her never forget. (To be continued......)
