In a small and delicate courtyard in the West Garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Feng Shaochen and Xiao Lin sat opposite each other on both sides of a table of exquisite dishes.

"Today, I was an eye-opener." Xiao Lin sneered while drinking.

"Brother Zirun went out today, what did you encounter?"

"That Yunyao county lord whipped a teenager on the street and almost beat someone to death. Blood splattered on the spot. ”

"Ahh Feng Shaochen was taken aback, "It's the New Year, this is weishenme?" ”

"Because the boy threw the lighted cannon at her horse's hoof, and there was a sudden sound, which startled her horse."

"If you startle the county lord's driving, you will be punished." Feng Shaochen frowned and sighed, "But it won't kill people." This Yunyao County Lord has always been arrogant and domineering. ”

"Even if he hadn't been killed, most of the child's life would have been lost. If it weren't for the Yao girl who happened to meet you, that kid wouldn't survive tonight. ”

"Miss Yao? Have you seen Miss Yao? As soon as Feng Shaochen heard the word 'Miss Yao', his eyes immediately lit up.

Xiao Lin sneered and quipped, "Look at your unpromising appearance!" ”

Feng Shaochen snorted disappreciatively, and asked dissatisfiedly: "I seriously love a girl, and naturally think about her all the time, what's there to make fun of?" Aren't you going to really love someone in your life? ”

"Good, good! You're right, you're all right! Xiao Lin smiled helplessly, "But can you listen to the point?" ”

"You say." Feng Shaochen picked up the silver wire enamel wine jug and poured Xiao Lin full of wine.

Xiao Lin told him from beginning to end about what he saw Yao Yanyu treating with the child in the restaurant next to him, and Zuihou took a sip of wine and sighed: "This Yao girl is really different!" Just the child's bloodstained mud stained and dirty appearance, don't ordinary ladies have to hide far away when they see it? ”

Feng Shaochen finally found a sense of superiority, glanced at Xiao Lin, and snorted: "Doctor's parents' hearts, you don't even understand this truth?" Miss Yao is the kindest person, how can she hide? ”

"That's right." Xiao Lin nodded, took a shrimp with chopsticks and threw it into his mouth, and sighed while eating: "That's why I said she was different." ”

"She's certainly different." Feng Shaochen felt that the girl he liked was good anywhere, she was the most haode. It is the best in the world!

Xiao Lin looked at Feng Shaochen as if he felt good, made a righteous and awe-inspiring look, stiffened his face, and said: "I think I can write a piece to the emperor, people like Miss Yao should be appreciated and commended." If everyone is like Miss Yao, how peaceful and peaceful will this Cloud Capital City, this Great Cloud Dynasty, and the whole world be? ”

Feng Shaochen almost sprayed Xiao Lin's face with a sip of wine: "Zirun, are you okay?" ”

Xiao Lin saw Feng Shaochen like this, and immediately collapsed and returned to normal, and snorted disdainfully: "You don't have a sense of justice at all, this marquis is so righteous, you don't know how to echo it." ”

"Alright, don't make a fuss." Feng Shaochen stretched out his hand and put a piece of osmanthus fish in Xiao Lin's bowl, "You just said that Miss Yao wore a riding costume and walked back from the direction outside the city, did she go horseback riding?" ”

"I don't know." Xiao Lin said while eating fish: "Your beloved, you can find a way to inquire yourself." ”

"I've been locked up at home by my grandfather for the past few days, and I can't go anywhere."

"In a few days." Xiao Lin looked at Feng Shaochen with a smile and said, "After the third day of the Lunar New Year, you will be free." ”

Feng Shaochen calculated, now that the New Year is approaching, Chinese New Year's Eve is celebrated, the first morning of the new year has to enter the palace to ask the queen mother for peace, but also to worship the ancestors, the second year of the first year has to accompany the old lady at home, mother, and wait for the sister to come back to pay New Year's greetings or something, the third year of the new year The provinces began to invite New Year's wine, and he also took this opportunity to go out and walk around, so he smiled and said: "What I said is that you have to endure these few days." ”

And this night's Chengwang Mansion was not as interested as the Yan Wangfu and the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Princess Cheng stood there with a disapproving expression, and behind her stood the aggrieved Yun Yao. Cheng Wang Yun Shenyou looked at Princess Cheng with an angry face and asked, "Yao'er did such an excessive thing, and you still spoke for her?!" "Fathers teach their sons, and mothers teach their daughters. Yun Yao made such a mistake, and as her mother, Princess Cheng, she had a great responsibility.

Princess Cheng was not convinced, and looked unhappy: "As soon as the prince came up, he reprimanded Yao'er, why didn't he ask Yao'er if she was frightened?" She almost fell off her horse! ”

"She's frightened? If you are frightened, you can almost beat other people's children to death?! Yun Shenyou angrily circled back and forth in the room, then turned to Princess Cheng's side, pointed at Yun Yao and asked angrily, "Yao'er, do you know what is wrong?!" ”

Yun Yao had tears in her eyes, but she didn't flinch, raised her head to meet King Cheng's gaze, and choked up: "My daughter is at fault." But that little bastard should be beaten too! He threw the cannon on my horse's leg, and if he didn't teach him a lesson, maybe someone would dare to fire at the gate of King Cheng's mansion in the future! ”

"Nonsense!" King Cheng waved his hand angrily, after all, he felt sorry for his daughter, and he still couldn't beat this slap, so he stretched out his finger and pointed at Yun Yao, and said angrily: "As the daughter of the royal family, you can be arrogant, you can be domineering, but you can't be tyrannical!" Don't abuse the people wantonly! That kid threw a cannon and frightened your horse, you can hand him over to Jingzhao Mansion Yin to deal with, whether to beat the board or punish his parents, the Great Cloud Dynasty has laws to follow! ”

King Cheng said, turned around angrily, turned back and pointed at his daughter, and reprimanded: "And you, as the county lord and a daughter's family, beat people on the street with a whip, and almost beat people to death, you ...... Thou hast called the people of the world, and how the princes and ministers said thee and the king! ”

"Lord Wang!" Princess Cheng wanted to say something, but King Cheng immediately stopped: "You shut up for me!" As he spoke, he pointed at Yun Yao again and reprimanded: "From now on, you have thought about it for me behind closed doors!" Except for entering the palace on the first day of the New Year to greet the queen's mother, you are not allowed to go out of the house for half a step! Otherwise, look at how I clean you up! ”

"Father!" As soon as Yun Yao heard this, she immediately became anxious. Don't let her go out for the New Year, how can this be good?

"Lord Wang!" Princess Cheng was also anxious: "This is the New Year, all the mansions have to move around, which mansion does not follow the mother to string relatives and friends everywhere?" Yao'er is seventeen years old after the New Year, you don't let her go out, what do you think about the provinces? ”

"If you don't discipline your daughter, are you embarrassed to tell me this? In my opinion, it's better to be locked up at home, and save yourself from getting out and causing trouble again! King Cheng dropped this sentence and went out angrily.

Princess Cheng turned her head to look at Yun Kun and said angrily, "You don't persuade your father either." ”

Today, Yun Yao was angry, and he only heard his son talk about the scene at that time, while Yun Kun saw Yun Yao almost beat people to death with his own eyes, and he also heard the people's discussions.

The capital of the big clouds is in full view. Originally, the royal mansions already had opinions on the Cheng Wangfu, but Yun Yao did this clearly by handing the pigtails of the Cheng Wangfu to the hands of political enemies, and the father was in dire straits! No matter how deep the holy family of King Cheng's Mansion is, he is only a courtier, if this matter reaches the ears of the emperor, what will be the consequences? Yun Kun was furious when he thought about this.

It's just that in the face of his mother, Yun Kun couldn't be as angry as his father, so he sighed helplessly and said, "Mother, you just said that Yao'er will be seventeen after the New Year. Her temperament must be changed, otherwise, what will the princes of the princes and princes think of her? ”

Princess Cheng was choked by Yun Kun's words, and watched her son turn around and go out in a daze. The door curtain was lowered with a bang, and Yun Yao suddenly cried and ran to the backyard.

In the mansion of the eldest princess of Ninghua, Han Wei and the eldest princess of Ninghua sat on both sides of the warm couch, and after listening to the second son briefly explain what happened, the eldest princess sneered: "I said that the reputation of the seventh brother will be ruined in the hands of that woman sooner or later, and the royal brother still doesn't believe it." No, a good daughter, let her teach badly! ”

Han Wei raised his hand and patted the eldest princess's hand, and persuaded: "You can't say that, Yao'er is still young. Besides, although she didn't have an accident this time, it's quite scary to think about, if she really fell off the horse, how good would this thing be? The safety of the royal lord is of paramount importance. ”

Han Entropy nodded, and said matter-of-factly: "This matter must be ordered to go back, and it is absolutely forbidden to indiscriminately light artillery battles on the street in Yundu City!" ”

The eldest princess Ning Hua sneered and said, "You two will be with the mud!" ”

Han Entropy smiled helplessly, what could he do? It is not a matter of a year or two that my mother is dissatisfied with Princess Cheng. Princess Kecheng is still the wife of the seventh uncle after all, and her father is helpless about this, and she can only do this as a son.

The next day was the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, and the masters of the princes and princes and uncles were busy with the New Year's affairs.

Yao Di also pasted the Spring Festival couplets, hung red lights, and the word "Douda" was pasted on the shadow wall, and the carved beams and paintings were all washed and painted, and a brand-new peach charm was pasted.

Compared with the bustle outside, Yao Yanyu's house is quiet and green, quietly embroidered with an autumn-colored wishful purse on the side. Miss Yao held a medical book in her hand, leaned on the couch and slowly flipped through it.

Yao Yanyi already knew about Yao Yanyu's treatment of the child's injuries on the street of Yundu City, but he didn't ask more, and Yao Yanyu didn't tell him. Since the two brothers and sisters lived in this old courtyard, they have a new way of getting along.

Yao Yanyi tried his best to give Yao Yanyu freedom, he tried not to ask about her affairs, let go as much as possible, and let her do what she wanted. And Yao Yanyu gradually became casual with this brother, sometimes the two of them ate together, not like brother and sister, but like old friends for many years.

Sometimes, Yao Yanyu secretly thinks that the second brother is really a very sociable person. He can befriend anyone he wants.

The next day was Chinese New Year's Eve, and early in the morning, Yao Yanyu was woken up by the sound of artillery battles. Cuiwei came in and asked her if she wanted to get up, and Yao Yanyu pulled the quilt over her ears and continued to sleep.

Lunch was served with Yao Yanyi, Yao Ergongzi looked at the second sister's slightly puffy eyelids sleeping and asked with a smile: "How tired is my sister, she actually slept until after midnight before getting up?" ”

Yao Yanyu smiled awkwardly, rubbed her eyes and said, "Anyway, it's okay to do, I slept too late last night while reading." ”

"Well, eat and sleep for a while, and keep the New Year at night." Yao Yanyi had a smile in the corner of his eyes. He now looks at how this second sister looks and how pleasing to the eye.

Yao Yanyu shook her head helplessly: "I slept too much, I'm afraid I can't sleep." ”

The brother and sister eaten, and Yao Yanyi asked Yao Yanyu to go back to rest. Anyway, his brother and sister are in Yundu City for the New Year, there are no trivial matters at home, and there are not many relatives and friends to visit, so there is nothing to do on the first and second days of the Lunar New Year, and it is estimated that they will go to the Dinghou Mansion on the third day of the new year, and then it depends on the situation.

Yao Yanyi looked at the back of his second sister, and gently tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair, this was the most leisurely Spring Festival he had ever had.

In the evening, the brother and sister vied the New Year together. This is the custom of the Great Cloud Dynasty, and the children will keep the bowl on Chinese New Year's Eve to add life to the elderly in the family. Although the ancestors of the Yao family were businessmen, there have been three generations of people studying for the imperial examination, so they naturally pay more attention to these.

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was naturally very rich, and the two brothers and sisters also drank some wine.

With nothing to do, Yao Yanyi seemed to ask Yao Yanyu casually: "Today is the time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new." In the past year, although it is not thrilling, but the second sister did give us a great surprise, the eldest sister recovered from illness and conceived a child, and the father was proud of officialdom, which is inseparable from the credit of the second sister. I don't know what the second sister plans for next year? ”

Because the atmosphere was so good, Yao Yanyu's mood was also very relaxed, and after hearing this question, she replied with a chuckle: "What can I plan?" My only preference is the medicinal herbs grown in Zhuangzi's greenhouse. After the beginning of spring, I want Lao Huang to plant all the land in the small village with hemostatic grass and notoginseng, hoping to have a good harvest. ”

Yao Yanyi smiled: "This is good." Why don't we get more land and plant it together? ”

"Huh?" Yao Yan looked at Yao Yanyi puzzled: "I don't know if this can be done yet, Panax notoginseng and hemostatic grass are not suitable for the climate here, even if they are planted, they may not grow well." When the time comes, there will be no return, second brother, don't blame me. ”

"No, it won't." Yao Yanyi smiled smugly, "I don't plan to plant it here in Yundu." ”

"Huh?" Yao Yanyu didn't keep up with Yao Yanyi's thinking this time.

"A few days ago, I asked someone to go to Fujian and buy hundreds of hectares of land, and if I can, I plan to plant all these hundreds of hectares of land." Yao Yanyi smiled gently, his eyes shining brighter, brighter than the stars in the clear night sky, "I remember you told me that this thing of hemostatic grass is a wild shrub that rises in the hot and humid zone?" It's better for us to directly spend money to hire someone to pick it, dry it and transport it directly to it and then concoct it. It's easy and fast, and you can make a lot of money, so why not? ”

Yao Yanyu suddenly thought that he didn't have any economic acumen, and he devoted himself to research and research, and in the end, these people who were full of profiteer ideas would make a lot of money, and they couldn't get any benefit from their hard work.

"It's just that only my sister understands this hemostatic grass, and it's a lot of trouble for you. Well...... I think, after the matter is completed, after deducting all the costs and expenses, how about our brother and sister add two to one? ”

What else? Yao Yanyu could only secretly rejoice that this profiteer was her brother at this time, what else could she say? So, the two Yao brothers and sisters talked eloquently on Chinese New Year's Eve, talking about how to make money after the New Year.

Yao Yanyi knew that there were two herbs in Yao Yanyu's secret recipe, which were something that the people of Dayun barely knew and had never even used the imperial doctor, so he had already begun to think about it. At first, he guessed that the emperor wanted this secret recipe to prepare medicinal powder for the women of the harem, but it didn't take long to figure out that for the sake of the women of the harem, the emperor could not be so bothered.

After all, the women of the Great Cloud Dynasty are all emperors, and it is not easy for him to want beautiful women? This one has a scar on his face, so he immediately throws it away and goes to find a beautiful one.

Therefore, Yao Yanyi firmly believes that the emperor must use this medicinal powder on his close guards, and then if it can be prepared in large quantities, it should also be used in the elite army. After all, the army is the ruler's weapon.

Since this is the case, then this powder must not be sloppy. More importantly, the prescription must be kept secret, and the fewer people who know it, the better, so as to ensure that the prescription will not be taken away by foreign enemies and cause trouble for themselves.

In this way, the fewer people who prescribe the prescription, the better. And the founder of Yao Yanyu, the prescription, the emperor will definitely not let it go, and will definitely take it for his own use, but it depends on how to use it. I haven't come to her yet, it must be because of the Chinese New Year, and I haven't had time to arrange it.

In this way, it is a great business opportunity.

Yao Yan wanted to open a medicine farm in Yundu City, and even this medicine farm could be hung under Yao Yanyu's name, the purpose was to help the emperor purchase some of the medicinal materials in the formula. Of course, he was not greedy, and he did not expect to be able to take down the business of more than a dozen medicinal materials in the formula, and he was 100% sure that the emperor would never get all the medicinal materials of this prescription in the same medicine field.

Yao Yanyi just thought that with Yao Yanyu's younger sister, getting the supply of the two unfamiliar medicinal materials of hemostatic grass and pupa was an extremely considerable amount of silver every year.

Yao Yanyu was originally too lazy to ask about business matters, and it was not that she didn't understand it completely. Yao Yanyi nodded a few words, and she immediately understood. Then she also expressed her worries and opinions without reservation, Yao Yanyi said her thoughts while thinking about it, the brother and sister were actually the same as having a business meeting, and when it came to the meridian handover.

The sound of firecrackers outside suddenly became loud, Yao Yanyu was stunned, and said with a smile: "The New Year is here!" ”

Yao Yanyi was not tired at all, but was full of energy, straightened his sleeves and stood up, and said, "Let's go, let's go and set off the artillery battle too." ”

Yao Yanyu was rarely happy, went out with the second brother, called Tianluo Shenjiang and a few other small guys, and moved the haode artillery battle that had been prepared for a long time to the yard and set it off. The sound of ping-pong spread out in the courtyard with endless joy, and after the firecrackers, fireworks were set off.

The night sky of Cloud Capital City was brilliant for a while.

Yao Yanyu stood under the eaves of the porch wrapped in a new big red satin cloak and watched the fireworks for a while, and then felt sleepy.

Yao Yanyi let the kitchen cook hot dumplings, and the brother and sister each ate a few and went back to their rooms to rest.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yao Yanyu touched dominoes with Cuiwei Cuiping and Banxia Maidong at home. Started to welcome some money.,Then I started to lose again.,Lose for a while and start to win.,Play to zuihou and count down and actually welcome half a hanging money.,So I pushed those copper coins.,Let the little girls rob it.。

On the second day of the new year, Yao Yanyu was originally going to play with the maids at home, but just after clinker breakfast, someone came to the mansion of the eldest princess of Ninghua, saying that the eldest prince was going to pick up Miss Yao and Yao Ergongzi to eat New Year's wine.

Yao Yanyi said secretly, Yan Yu is really a big face, and the eldest princess's mansion came to pick up people on the second day of the new year. So the brother and sister hurriedly put on the clothes they went out in, rode a horse and rode a car with their personal entourage to the mansion of the eldest princess of Ninghua.

The mansion of the eldest princess of Ninghua is not full of Spring Festival couplets like ordinary eunuchs, and there is only the blessing word of Dou Da written by the emperor himself on the huge shadow wall. In addition, it is accompanied by a pair of Spring Festival couplets: "The wind bathes in three spring warmth; Houde is tolerant of a vein of incense. Horizontal batch: "Spring returns to the earth". All of them are written by the emperor.

Other than that, there was no red anywhere else. Not even the big red lanterns. Yao Yanyu understood in her heart that the eldest princess of Ninghua was because of the queen mother, and the mansion would not be lit up for three years. National filial piety is one year, but as a child, you must keep filial piety for your parents for three years.

After getting off the car, the housekeeper of the eldest princess's mansion came to greet her, Yao Yanyu naturally wanted to see the eldest princess, and Yao Yanyi was invited to the Zhenguo Mansion next to it.

Yao Yanyu vaguely felt that the atmosphere in the eldest princess's mansion was a little different from when she came, Han Mingcan didn't come out to see her, and even the people were a little more respectful and a little less friendly.

In hesitation, Yao Yanyu followed the housekeeper into the Jinghua Hall where Princess Ninghua usually sat up.

Turning the screen curtain and walking to the depths of the Jinghua Palace, Yao Yanyu finally saw the eldest princess of Ninghua after turning a screen with white marble carvings and thousands of horses galloping. So he hurriedly stepped forward to pay a national salute.

The eldest princess of Ninghua smiled slightly, and did not ask Yao Yanyu to get up, but said to a man wearing a royal blue Fushou Tuanhua brocade robe next to her, with a fair face and a kind expression: "Brother, you can see it, it's this girl." ”

Elder brother?! Yao Yanyu was shocked in her heart, she could make the eldest princess call her brother...... Who is it?! It is said that Prince Cheng is the younger brother of the eldest princess!

Yao Yanyu was stunned and broke out in a cold sweat, feeling cold on her back.

Princess Ninghua's 'elder brother' sighed slightly, shook his head and said, "Alas! I'm still a little girl who hasn't grown up. ”

"This girl is not big, she is smaller than Can'er." The eldest princess of Ning Hua said with a smile. "Yao Yanyu, haven't you seen the emperor yet?"

"Yes." Yao Yanyu knelt on the ground and didn't have time to get up, so she kowtowed to the man again, and said in a panic: "The courtier Yao Yanyu doesn't know the face of the Son of Heaven, she loses her dignity in front of the king, offends the monarch, and asks the emperor to surrender." ”

The emperor smiled slightly, and waved his hand very generously: "Those who don't know are not to blame." Get up. ”

Yao Yanyu hurriedly kowtowed again, Fang slowly stood up, but he didn't dare to straighten his waist and raise his head, only hunched over and clasped his hands on his waist, looking like an angry little daughter-in-law, waiting for the emperor's old man's golden words.

"Yao Yanyu." The emperor gently muttered Yao Yanyu's name, as if muttering to himself, paused slightly, and asked, "How old are you this year?" ”

Yao Yanyu's heart trembled, thinking to herself, didn't your old man come here for the prescription? It's the media pulling fiber again, what do you care how old I am?

"If you go back to the emperor, the courtier's daughter is seventeen years old this year."

"This year?" The emperor chuckled and glanced at the eldest princess Ning Hua, "Ah, it's just over the New Year, the second day of the Lunar New Year, it's a year older." Hehe......"

Hehehe. Yao Yanyu echoed and smirked twice from her heart, thinking to herself, Your Majesty, you are really humorous.

The eldest princess of Ninghua smiled: "It is the most prosperous year in my life. At the same age as flowers, it is really enviable. ”

The emperor nodded slightly: "Well, Miss Yao is indeed different, and she can be called a wonderful flower among thousands of flowers." ”

Wonderful? Yao Yanyu thought to herself, this doesn't seem to be a good word, right?

Of course, Yao Yanyu also knew that the emperor did not live in the Internet age, and he probably did not have the sarcastic mind of modern people. ”

The emperor smiled and said, "I've heard about you. At first, it was Yunyang, then Suzhi, and then Can'er, and Mrs. Dinghoufu...... Yao Yanyu, you are really the strange woman of my Great Cloud Dynasty. ”

The emperor didn't say anything about the young man who was whipped by the lord of Yunyao County on the street, Yao Yanyu didn't know if he hadn't heard of it or didn't want to say it. So he hurriedly bowed down and said: "The emperor praises falsely, and the courtiers are sincerely afraid." ”

"Your prescription has been offered by your father. To tell you the truth, the people around me have spent half a month of hard work, but they haven't prepared your kind of powder. The emperor looked at Yao Yanyu with interest and asked, "Yao Yanyu, can you tell me that this is weishenme?" ”

It's not okay to talk about anything else, talk about prescriptions, talk about medical skills, this is Yao Yanyu's strength, she is never scared, and she is full of confidence. So Miss Yao stabilized her mind and responded: "Back to the emperor, this courtier will only know until she has seen the medicinal powder prepared by the emperor." ”

The emperor glanced to the side, and a man in his fifties with a white face and beard stepped forward and handed Yao Yanyu an oiled paper bag.

Yao Yanyu took it and opened it, glanced at the medicinal powder inside, and frowned slightly: The color is not right.

Then she put the thing in front of her nose and sniffed it: Well, there is too much notoginseng, and there is no smell of pupae, either this medicine is missing, or something else is used.

Then, she stretched out her little finger and picked out a little powder and put it on the tip of her tongue and tasted it: the hemostatic grass was not used correctly, and I don't know where to find some grass to replace it.

Yao Yan told the truth, and the emperor was very surprised after hearing it, and then sneered: "It turns out that these mediocre people haven't even found the right medicine." ”

Eldest Princess Ning Hua smiled: "Brother Huang, don't be angry, we haven't heard of these two medicinal herbs that Miss Yao said, and it's understandable that your people are looking for something wrong." After all, this is Miss Yao's original secret recipe, how can outsiders easily know it? Otherwise, the scar on Can'er's face would not have been removed for eight years. ”

The emperor nodded and sighed, "What the imperial sister said is true." But how to solve this matter now? ”

The eldest princess of Ning Hua smiled: "What's so difficult about this? Miss Yao is here now, and she created the prescription, so why don't you just leave this matter to her? ”

Yao Yanyu quietly glanced at the emperor's face and replied: "Back to the emperor, if you want to go back to the eldest princess, there is actually no need to be so troublesome. ”

"Huh? What do you think of this? The emperor asked with interest.

Yao Yanyu replied: "The dosage of this medicinal powder is wrong, the most important thing is that the two key herbs are not found correctly, if the courtiers can provide the emperor with the illustrations and characteristics of the two herbs, the emperor can take them and let the people in charge of the work find them according to the patterns, and the matter can be solved." ”

"That being said, I don't want to make this too public." The emperor obviously didn't expect Yao Yanyu to confess so frankly, or that he still felt a little bullying the little girl after all after he forcibly asked for someone else's prescription, or that there was any other psychology, and after he said this, he added in a deep voice: "Moreover, you have a lot of credit for this matter, I want to give you a chance." ”

In fact, the main thing is that I don't want to let this 'wonderful' cat quietly cat in the dark, and if it is accidentally used by someone with a heart, it will become a harm. Yao Yanyu thought that the second brother was really like a god, so she pursed her lips, seemed to summon up great courage, and replied: "The emperor is driven, and the courtiers don't dare to disobey." ”

"Well, you're a pretty loyal girl, but it's a pity...... It's a daughter. If you're a man, that's great. The emperor sighed slightly, as if he felt that there was a fly in the ointment.

The eldest princess Ning Hua smiled: "The imperial brother is not allowed to look down on women. ”

The emperor smiled and said, "I heard that you also planted your own medicinal herbs on the Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city?" ”

"Back to the emperor, it's just a little pastime when the courtiers are bored."

The emperor asked again: "What have you planted?" ”

Yao Yanyu replied truthfully: "Following the method of raising flowers in people's greenhouses, I raised some notoginseng and hemostatic grass. ”

"Do you have the seeds of the hemostatic grass?"

"Back to the emperor, the courtiers use this kind of hemostatic grass can be seen everywhere in the ravine in the humid and hot zone in the south, the courtiers are also on a whim, before picking some seeds to take around for backup, and then on a whim, only to use the greenhouse to try to plant, now it has not grown, I don't know if the hemostatic grass planted in the greenhouse can bloom and bear fruit."

When the emperor heard this, he nodded slowly and sighed: "What you said is very true, and besides, with your method, it is also a drop in the bucket." And the pupa of the ground, those people don't know what it is, from the pharmacopoeia for a few days, zuihou put together a few insects and tried them one by one, but the effect is not good. ”

The eldest princess Ning Hua said: "In this case, why doesn't the imperial brother directly hand over this matter to Yao Yanyu?" The two herbs of hemostatic grass and ground pupa let her or her father and brother figure out how much silver they needed to spend on it. The royal brother is worry-free, and there are no mistakes. ”

The emperor smiled: "That's fine." It's just that you have to be more strict in your work, and you can't leak any rumors. The best - you can find other alternatives to these two herbs, and the efficacy is about the same, if not as good as these two. The only thing in this world is not reliable, and if someone gets hold of it, it will not be easy to do. ”

Yao Yanyu secretly sighed in her heart, the emperor is the emperor in the end, and even the secret recipe medicine needs a backup plan.

Seeing that Yao Yanyu was silent, the emperor asked again: "Miss Yao, can you do it?" ”

Yao Yanyu hurriedly described it, bowed down and knelt down: "The courtiers should do their best to serve the emperor." ”

The emperor nodded and said, "Then it's decided, I'll ask Huai'en to find you when I go back, I'll just give you some silver first, and you can find some reliable people to get these two medicinal materials for me in the fastest time." ”

Yao Yanyu kowtowed again and replied: "Yes, the courtiers obey the holy decree." ”

"First of all, there is really something to do, I have to go." Saying that, the emperor stood up and walked out two steps, then stopped and turned back: "By the way, if there is anything, you can tell the eldest princess directly." ”

Yao Yanyu hurriedly agreed, knelt on the ground and bowed, and said that he would send the emperor to him.

The eldest princess Ning Hua passed in front of Yao Yanyu when she got up to send the emperor out, looked back at the silver-red figure curled up on the ground, and couldn't help but smile slightly, after all, she didn't say anything, and turned around to send the emperor out of the palace.

Yao Yanyu heard the footsteps gradually moving away, Fang slowly straightened up, just reached out and hammered the back of the waist, suddenly there was a light laugh behind her, she looked back, and saw Han Mingcan smiling and turning from behind the curtain, walked to her side, and said with a smile: "Get up quickly, the emperor is gone, you don't have to kneel." ”

Yao Yanyu smiled bitterly: "My legs are numb, and I can't get up." ”

Han Mingcan hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her, helped her to sit down on the chair next to her, and asked, "It doesn't matter, right?" ”

"Well, it's okay." Yao Yanyu rubbed her knees and shook her head with a smile, "Did my sister just keep hiding behind?" He didn't come out to give me courage, but I was scared to death, and my underwear was soaked. ”

Han Mingcan smiled: "You guys are talking about big things, my mother won't let me mix blindly." ”

Yao Yanyu was stunned for a moment, and at this time she slowly came back to her senses, thinking about this matter, as if every question and every sentence had been arranged in advance, and the words that Princess Ninghua said, every word was to put this errand on her head, could it be that her brother entrusted her?

No. Yao Yanyu immediately denied it. The eldest princess Ning Hua is so noble, the second brother will never talk to her.

Yao Yanyu suddenly looked up at Han Mingcan, with a bit of inquiry in her eyes.

Han Mingcan smiled embarrassedly and said, "You won't be angry, will you?" I also brought you clothes back that day, and I accidentally mentioned it to my mother. Besides, my mother only helped to say a few words, and the final decision was still in the hands of the imperial uncle. Moreover, the prescription is yours, and you should share in these benefits. ”

Yao Yanyu then remembered the joke that she had made with Han Mingcan that it was better to convert clothes into silver.

Presumably Han Mingcan felt that he was a concubine at home, and he usually had a natural dwarf in food and clothing, but at this time, he left his parents and was alone in the capital, saying that he was married but not married, and that his parents didn't care much about the embarrassing situation, so he said a few more words to the eldest princess.

She also had a good intention, Yao Yanyu figured it out, so she stood up with a smile and gave Han Mingcan a deep blessing, and thanked her sincerely: "Sister Xiexie thinks about me, and my sister is grateful." ”

Han Mingcan took Yao Yanyu's hand and went to sit down on the couch under the carved long window, and sighed again: "It's good that you don't blame me for being troublesome." I know you don't care about the money. But these yellow and white things are the foundation of life. I heard that when you entered Beijing, you came with a dowry, and your home is far away, although you have your eldest sister to take care of you, but there are always many inconveniences. In any case, you have the confidence to hold the silver in your hand. ”

Yao Yanyu's heart was soft and warm, and she held Han Mingcan's hand and said, "Sister always thinks about Yan Yu everywhere, how can Yan Yu blame my sister." ”

The eldest princess sent the emperor away, and when she entered the door, she saw the pair of sisters holding hands and talking and laughing on both sides of the small kang table sitting on the couch, so she smiled and said, "Look at what you two say so happy?" Since Yan Yu is here today, let's just stay for a few days, Can'er from the province only thinks about running to you all day long, and I can't find her. ”

Yao Yanyu hurriedly got up from the couch and said with a smile: "Today's matter, Yanyu also wants to thank the eldest princess for her grace." And when he spoke, he was deeply blessed.

"That's it. Speaking of which, your kindness to my family is even deeper, and my son and daughter are all thanks to you. I'm just saying a few words, and it's not a grace. The most important thing is that you are sensible and your prescription is unique. The eldest princess said, sat down on the couch, and said meaningfully, "If you are careless in doing things for the emperor, good things will turn into bad things, not only causing trouble, but also possibly affecting your parents and family, so you must be more careful." Do you remember? ”

Yao Yanyu hurriedly replied: "Yes, Yanyu remembers the teachings of the eldest princess. ”

"Mother." Han Mingcan hurriedly took the eldest princess's hand and coquettishly, "Gang Yanyu also said that she was scared into a cold sweat, and even her underwear was soaked, you are still scaring her at this time." ”

The eldest princess of Ning Hua sneered slightly: "I'm also doing this for her good." ”

Yao Yanyu hurriedly said: "Yes, Yanyu understands the hard work of the eldest princess, and she must work hard to not let the eldest princess worry." ”

"You're an understanding kid." The eldest princess Ning Hua looked at Yao Yanyu and sighed with a smile: "Brother Huang has a good saying-if you were a man!" ”

Yao Yanyu smiled bitterly, thinking that I also want to be a man, if I were a man, I would have already walked all over the world at this time, and I would be at ease, where would I be bound by this here.

Han Mingcan was unhappy, and said angrily: "If she is a man, am I not missing a good sister?" ”

Princess Ninghua said with a smile: "If she is a man, I will marry you to her, you two have the same temperament, and you will definitely live well in the future." ”

"......" Yao Yanyu was dumbfounded, and was speechless at the divine unfolding of the eldest princess Ninghua.

Han Mingcan also lowered her head, touching the sad matter, she didn't have anything to say.

The eldest princess Ning Hua looked at her daughter's expression, sighed slightly, and said, "Just now, your uncle also asked about you and your cousin, saying that on the first day of the new year, Jun Ze entered the palace with your seventh uncle to ask for peace, and asked him to give him a marriage. ”

"Mother, I've already thought about it." Han Mingcan's eyes had pain that could not be concealed, but his expression was very firm, "I don't want to marry into King Cheng's mansion." ”

The eldest princess of Ninghua looked at her daughter lovingly, and sighed slightly: "Okay, if you don't want to, then I will go back and explain to your imperial uncle, and also tell your seventh uncle, let him choose another marriage for Jun Ze, don't delay him." ”

On that day, Yao Yanyu did not live in the Eldest Princess's Mansion because she was going to Dinghou Mansion tomorrow to give Mrs. Hou and her sister New Year's greetings.

Yao Yanyi already knew that the emperor had asked Yao Yanyu to handle the matter of medicinal materials, and when he entered the door, he called his sister to continue to discuss the next things with her.
