Chapter Twenty-Three: Bai Saburo is happy

When Ji Liming came over, Xun Jiu had already eaten almost enough.

"Little cousin, are you still used to eating the food in our house?" As soon as he came in, Ji Liming asked with a fluttering eyebrow.

"So-so!" Xun Jiu took the towel handed by the maidservant and wiped his mouth, and then rinsed his mouth and washed his hands by the way.

The servants who served her all looked at each other when they heard this, and they intuitively felt that Xun Jiu didn't know what to do, the chefs of the Dutong Mansion were all famous, and the dishes they made were comparable to the imperial dining room in the palace.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and then they all glance at the second young man.

Unexpectedly, Ji Liming didn't laugh angrily, "The cooks in the Ji Mansion are indeed inferior to the Jiaoyi of the Qin Palace, so you will be able to do it." ”

Ji Liming's words, everyone was relieved, it turned out that this girl had tasted the dishes of the god chef Jiaoyi in advance, no wonder she felt that the supper in the Dutong Mansion was so-so.

The five guards of the Qin Palace, there are rumors in the market, but after all, there are very few people who have seen them, so their deeds can only be summarized by the word "mysterious", but the most famous of them is the Divine Chef Jiaoyi.

The nursery rhyme "Taste all the food in the world, it is difficult to resist a bowl of porridge" is what Jiaoyi shot, even if it is just a bowl of thin porridge, it can make people eat the marrow.

Miss Jiu, an orphan girl who has just been raided, can taste the dishes of the god chef?

The servants couldn't help but look at her with admiration, and their faces softened a little.

As soon as Xun Jiu saw everyone's restrained looks, he knew that they must have thought of the Jiaoyi of the Qin Palace.

Actually, she misses Kakuyi a lot...... of dishes.

It's a pity that the gods are all temperamental, and Fusheng is cold and abstinent, and the people around him have weirder tempers than the other.

If it weren't for the "tree complaint", she would have thought that the chef was a gentle and easy to get along with.

After thinking back in an instant, Xun Jiu smiled at Ji Liming, "It's easy to say." ”

"You've been tossing all night, are you tired?" Ji Liming glanced at her and raised his eyebrows, "I have already arranged the room and prepared warm water for you to bathe, so I will take you over." ”

Xun Jiu's eyes flickered, "Such a trivial matter, how can I bother you to come in person, just call a little maid to take me over." ”

She is now in an embarrassing position, and the more the Ji family treats her, the more they can hate her.

"How's that going to work?" Ji Liming came over to pull her, "If you let the old man know that I have neglected you, I will definitely be scolded by him." ”

"Okay, you lead the way." Xun Jiu deftly avoided his touch, and didn't refute again, after all, after tossing all night, she was already tired.

When he arrived at the designated room and bathed under the service of the maid, Xun Jiu slept until he woke up naturally.

Probably at the behest of Ji Liming, no one came to disturb him during this period.

Hearing the movement, the voice of the servant immediately came from outside, "The girl is up?" ”

Xun Jiu said "um", and immediately three or four servants rushed in, with clean water in the copper basin, and a towel in the tray, and came over to freshen her up in an orderly manner.

Originally, she wanted to refuse, but Xun Jiu felt that since there was someone to serve, there was no need to be so hypocritical, anyway, she didn't plan to live in the Ji Mansion permanently, who knows if she could enjoy this kind of blessing in the future.

After freshening up and dressing, Xun Jiu went to Tinglan Yuan to ask for the pulse of the second lady, and then followed Ji Liming to the Shi'an Academy of Old Man Ji.

Ji Boran is about fifty years old, with a gray beard, but his body is very healthy, his spirit is strong, and his deep old eyes are shining.

Seeing Xun Jiu coming in, he waved his hand and retreated from the servant, glanced at Ji Liming, who came in with Xun Jiu, and waved his hand by the way, "Xiao Ming, you also go out." ”

Ji Liming wanted to speak, but when he saw Xun Jiu shaking his head at him almost imperceptibly, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth after comprehending it, and retreated after making a gesture.

"You may be seated." Ji Boran pointed to the empty seat and smiled at Xun Jiu.

There was a tea set on every small table next to the seat, obviously preparing for her to "have to serve tea" early in the morning.

Xun curled his lips slightly after a long time, and found a place to sit down at random.

Ji Boran glanced at her and said slowly, "Your father...... Damn it, indeed. ”

Xun Jiu, who was pouring tea, was stunned, and in her expectation, Old Man Ji had to say the favorite opening sentence of martial arts novels, "Do you know why I came to you", but it turned out that this old man was even more straightforward than she imagined, he was not polite at all, and announced her father's death penalty as soon as he came up.

Xun Jiu put down the teapot and lifted the cup to drink.

This action was extremely impolite in front of the elders, and sure enough, Ji Boran was stunned for a moment.

Xun Jiuyu glanced at his reaction, she put down the cup and got straight to the point, "Since you brought me to the Ji Mansion with the second lady's asthma, then I won't beat around the bush, I can't do this kind of thing casually, I believe that Old Man Ji will not force others to do it." ”

"I'm protecting you." From Xun Jiu's tone, Ji Boran could tell that he would not be able to drink her granddaughter's tea today, so he simply poured himself a cup and took a sip.

"Out of your friendship with my father?" Xun Jiu looked at him, his eyes seemed to be smiling.

Ji Boran pursed his mouth slightly, noncommittal.

Xun Jiu sneered, "You keep saying that you are good for others, have you ever thought that maybe it will be a harm to me?" ”

Ji Boran was silent for a long time before he said, "I promised your father that I would take good care of you." ”

Xun Jiu sneered, "I don't think that an executioner who personally sent my father to Huangquan Road would have much kindness to treat his daughter well." ”

"The emperor's order is hard to disobey." Ji Boran let out a long sigh, "It's just weird, your father is too rigid and doesn't know how to be flexible." ”

Xun Jiu's eyebrows frowned, "Bai Saburo is just a male concubine who has just entered the palace, how can he let the empress lose the life of a family envoy?" ”

"You think it's that simple?" Ji Boran glanced at her.

"Or else?" Xun Jiu's eyes moved, and listening to Ji Boran's tone, it seemed that this matter was really as she expected.

Ji Boran was silent for a moment, and after drinking the tea in the cup, he said: "When your father entered the palace the night before, he not only pricked Bai Saburo with a needle, but also asked for the pulse of Her Majesty the Empress. ”

Xun Jiu drank tea lightly without saying a word, and listened with straight ears.

Ji Boran said again: "After that, he said that Her Majesty the Empress was happy. ”

A sip of tea choked in his throat, Xun Jiu coughed for a long time before he came to his senses, and looked at Ji Boran puzzled, "The empress is pregnant, isn't this a great joy?" Why did you give my father death? ”

Ji Boran paused, and then said: "In addition to the empress, he also called out the joy pulse for Bai Saburo. ”

"Poof-" If the tea that I learned about the empress was choked just now, then this tea is sprayed now.

"Hakusaburo is a woman?" Xun Jiu felt that if it weren't for this, it would be impossible to explain it at all.

In her memory, Xun Qian's medical skills were rarely matched, and it was impossible to even get the Xi pulse wrong.

"A man who is like a fake." Ji Boran looked at her.

"How can a man have a happy pulse?" Xun Jiu frowned deeply, "Old man, don't lie to me." ”

"I'm afraid, I'll have to go down and ask your father." Ji Boran replied unhurriedly.
