Chapter 447: Bet
Princess Chao tilted her brows furrowed when she heard this.
The face of the county lord of Xirou is almost healed, what big thing can happen?
Peony stood beside An Rong, her excited eyes shining brighter than the shining stars in the night sky.
Something really happened!
After waiting for so long, she finally lived up to her prayers day and night, and if nothing happened, she would be haggard.
Peony was eager to know what effect the mixed poison was, but she didn't dare to ask, for fear that Princess Chaotian would see something and panic.
However, Princess Chao asked, "What's wrong with the face of the county lord of Xirou?" ”
The maid replied, "The face of the county lord of Xirou was originally good, but the doctor of Jimintang helped the county lord of Xirou to apply medicine on his face, and in less than half a cup ......of tea, the county lord of Xirou rolled on the bed in pain, and at this time his face was blue and red, and his mouth was crooked. ”
Thinking of the tragic situation of the county lord of Xirou, the maid was trembling.
She has seen the appearance of the county lord of Xirou, although it is not a country or a city, but she has been repeatedly disfigured, and now she can't look at it at all, it's really pitiful.
The maid's voice was not small, and An Rong could hear it clearly.
Are you stunned?
An Rong and Peony looked at each other, not knowing what was wrong, and they actually planted the blame to Jimintang perfectly.
God is not too kind to them, it is like a divine help.
The smile on the corner of Peony's mouth couldn't hold back, she covered her stomach and smiled, and she didn't forget to walk towards Princess Tilt with her eyes, and when she left, she had no scruples, and she smiled when she wanted to laugh.
Princess Chaotian's face was extremely ugly, "What about the doctor of Jimin Hall?" ”
Because the county lord's face has improved, and the doctor of Jimin Hall is also fully sure to help her heal, the county lord of Xirou moved back to Zhuangwangfu from the palace.
The face of the county lord of Xirou has changed now, and with the heart of Princess Zhuang, the doctor of Jimin Hall is afraid that he will be more auspicious.
Sure enough, the maid said, "The doctor of Jimin Hall is helpless against the illness of the county lord of Xirou, and Princess Zhuang was angry and broke one of the doctor's hands, if he can't cure the county lord's illness, he will die without a place to be buried." ”
Princess Chao's eyes were cold.
She had a smooth ride in Beilie, came to Da Zhou, and ran into walls everywhere, wanting to open a shop, and there were accidents one after another!
Princess Chao tilted her head and glanced at An Rong, and saw that her smile was bright, and her face became darker.
Instinctively told her that this matter was related to the farce of the Marquis of Wu'an yesterday.
She flicked her sleeves and walked away.
She wants to go to King Zhuang's Mansion to see it in person.
After she left, Peony couldn't hold back at all, "How can this be, I thought the poison was fine, why is it so miserable all of a sudden?" ”
An Rong thought for a while and said, "It is estimated that the poison concocted by Zhao Cheng happened to restrain each other, and the ointment concocted by the doctor of Jimin Hall broke this balance, so it would have such an effect." ”
Perhaps the medicine of Jimintang was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Peony's cheeks hurt when he smiled, "Anyway, it's a good thing, Jimintang was able to heal the face of the county lord of Xirou, and his reputation in Kyoto has improved, and if he makes such a fuss, Jimintang will definitely be laughed at to death." ”
Even if the disease can't be cured, it will get worse and worse, and even the arms will be discounted, who would dare to go to the doctor?
An Rong was extremely satisfied with this sudden unexpected result, but Princess Chao Tilt had superb medical skills, and it was not necessary to say that she might be able to cure the illness of the county lord of Xirou.
If it can't be cured, I don't know how Princess Zhuang will face her beloved daughter?
An Rong was in a good mood, and walked to the pharmacy, planning to finish preparing the medicinal powder that Hou Shizi of Jingbei wanted.
But as soon as I entered, another maid came, but this time, I was not looking for her, but for peony.
I only heard the maid say, "Sister Peony, General Li's Mansion sent someone to spread the word, saying that Old Madam Li is unwell and wants to see you." ”
Peony heard this, Aunt Gan's body is very tough, how can she suddenly feel unwell?
Peony looked at An Rong, "Young grandmother, the slave wants to go to ......." ”
Without waiting for Peony to finish speaking, An Rong smiled and said, "Go ahead." ”
Peony was a little worried, but Princess Chaotian had already come once today, and she shouldn't come again, so after telling Haitang a few words, she left the house in a hurry.
An Rong is busy for a day.
Except for lunch, I hardly left the pharmacy.
Begonia was afraid that An Rong would be tired several times, but An Rong was full of energy and did not see any fatigue.
When the sunset first appeared on the horizon, An Rong wiped off a few drops of sweat on the tip of his nose and said with a smile, "It's finally done." ”
Haitang brought a copper basin to An Rong to clean his hands, and said, "Young grandmother, do you want to tell the Hou Shizi of Jingbei that these medicines should not be mixed?" ”
"I really want to remind him that these medicinal powders can be solved by using them alone, but once they are mixed, I can't help them," An Rong was a little worried.
Who dares to guarantee that the prince of Jingbei will not cause trouble?
An Rong not only prepared poison for each medicinal powder, but also wrote what symptoms would occur after using it, and told Lian Xuan to be cautious and cautious.
Ready for these, An Rong walked out of the pharmacy.
Coincidentally, Lian Xuan came back with Xiao Zhan.
Seeing An Rong, Lian Xuan smiled happily, "Sister-in-law, is my medicine powder ready?" ”
An Rong nodded, glanced at Haitang, and went to carry the medicine powder.
Two small boxes, Begonia is a little difficult to carry.
Lian Xuan opened it and took a look, and when he saw the large and small bottles, he was not satisfied.
But his brow furrowed.
Antidote?
Lian Xuan shook the corners of his eyes, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing with the antidote?" There's no need for that. ”
Bu Da was on the side and said, "Lord Shizi, my cousin must be afraid that you are the same as blowing drugs, you didn't stun others, and you ...... faint first." ”
Before Buda finished speaking, he was slapped on the back of the head.
Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned!
Do you understand if you don't expose people?!
Lian Xuan clicked, closed the medicine box, thanked An Rong, and left.
Bu Da rubbed his head, took another box from Begonia's hand, and caught up with Lian Xuan.
An Rong looked amused and asked Xiao Zhan, "Hasn't Lian Xuan caught Shangguan Hao yet?" ”
Xiao Zhan shook his head, "It's like disappearing." ”
An Rong raised his eyebrows slightly, "Zhao Feng doesn't have any news of him either?" ”
"Nope."
An Rong was surprised, Zhao Feng had been sent to watch Princess Chaotian for a few days, and she also lived back in the palace, could it be that Shangguan Hao hadn't gone to look for her for so many days?
An Rong didn't believe it.
The corners of Xiao Zhan's mouth rose slightly, "It doesn't matter if you can't find it, on the day of the emperor's birthday, he will definitely appear." ”
An Rong covered his mouth and smiled, "I'm worried that Lian Xuan will propose to kick Guan Hao's ass at the birthday banquet." ”
Xiao Zhan also smiled, "You don't have to worry, he will definitely do it." ”
The corners of An Rong's mouth twitched, "Isn't it?" ”
Xiao Zhan glanced at An Rong and said, "Do you want to make a bet?" ”
"Bet on what?" An Rong asked with a smile.
"You decide," Xiao Zhan was very generous.
“…… Then I bet that Lian Xuan will make a request at the banquet," An Rong said without blushing and panting.
Xiao Zhan was stunned for two seconds before he was sure that An Rong was saying yes, and he didn't miss listening.
couldn't help but laugh dumbly, "You win steadily, what else are you betting?" ”
An Rong's cheeks were slightly embarrassed, "That's not necessarily, maybe Lian Xuan won't mention it, who knows?" ”
After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Zhan to finish speaking, An Rong changed the topic and said, "The emperor's birthday is coming, the old lady asked me to prepare a birthday gift with you alone, I don't know what to prepare." ”
Giving a birthday gift to the emperor is probably the most difficult.
Is there anything good that the emperor hasn't seen?
There are very few things that can make the emperor smile.
Xiao Zhan took An Rong's hand and stepped up the steps and said, "Don't be too dedicated, just pick a treasure worth more than 1,000 taels in the warehouse." ”
An Rong raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Could it be too careless?" ”
The emperor's birthday, who doesn't squeeze his head to think of what to make the emperor happy, how can he just pick one at random?
Xiao Zhan disagreed, "There is no benefit in stealing such limelight." ”
An Rong's eyes blinked lightly, and after thinking about it carefully, what Xiao Zhan said was right, there was no need for him to curry favor with the emperor.
What he wants to do is not to be a favored minister, but a courtier with real power in his hands.
Showing off at the emperor's birthday banquet and being praised by the emperor is not good except for attracting envy and jealousy.
An Rong thought about it carefully, what unique birthday gifts had he seen at the emperor's birthday banquet in the previous life.
After thinking about it, all I remember is an embroidery sent by Qingyan.
The embroidery is unique.
At first glance, it looks like the phoenix wears the peony, but if you move it a little, the dragon and the phoenix are auspicious, and then move, and it will become a flower and become rich again.
It's just magical.
Qingyan embroidery is general, I don't know where to find the wonderful hands, can embroider such a magnificent embroidery, which is breathtaking.
She doesn't have that ability, so she still listens to Xiao Zhan obediently, and the birthday gift is not lost, so she doesn't need to be too ostentatious.
After entering the house and drinking two sips of tea, the maid brought dinner.
An Rong and Xiao Zhan cleaned their hands and began to have dinner.
As a result, after only two bites, the maid opened the bead curtain and came in and said, "Young master, young grandmother, Mr. Xiao is here." ”
An Rong hurriedly put down his chopsticks and ordered, "Please come in quickly." ”
The maid withdrew, and within a moment, Manager Xiao came in.
He was holding two large stacks of account books in his hand, and when An Rong saw it, he knew what he was here for.
Manager Xiao saluted before saying, "Young grandmother, the third lady said that she was not capable of taking care of the Jade Pavilion, so she sent the account book back to Grandpa Guo, who couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while, so let you take care of it for a while." ”
An Rong didn't speak, she glanced at Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan looked at An Rong, "Are you sure?" ”
An Rong thought for a moment and said, "If you only have to hold on until the middle of next month, I can." ”
This was a bit inexplicable, and the rest of the room couldn't understand it.
Xiao Zhan relieved Mr. Xiao to put down the account book.
After Manager Xiao left, Xiao Zhan waved his hand and asked the other maids in the house to retreat as well, before asking An Rong, "How do you run the Jade Pavilion." ”
An Rong raised his eyebrows, pointed to his head, and said with a smug smile, "I don't have any other strengths, my memory is not bad." ”
The Jade Pavilion is second to none in the Great Zhou, as long as you buy a headdress, it must be.
An Rong liked to go shopping in his previous life, especially headdresses, and he had to go shopping two or three times a month.
The headdress she has seen, how can she remember it.
Even if you don't remember, in the six years of my previous life, I bought more than a dozen sets of headdresses for Yujin Pavilion, as well as hosta bracelets, and I don't know how much.
Draw the drawings and let Yujin Pavilion follow them, and it is not difficult.
When one day she took out the jewelry picture from the wooden bracelet, she also retired.
After An Rong finished speaking, he saw that the corners of Xiao Zhan's mouth twitched a little, and he couldn't help but pout, "What, do you think my method is not good?" ”
Xiao Zhan didn't nod or shake his head.
It is completely feasible to help the Jade Pavilion survive the temporary difficulties.
But what about the long term?
The jewelry drawings of the Jade Jin Pavilion have been prepared for more than 20 years, and there are times when they are exhausted, not to mention that Anrong depends on memory.
Xiao Zhan felt that if the Jade Pavilion wanted to prosper forever, it would not be enough to rely only on the jewelry in the wooden bracelet.
If the Xiao family does not have Anrong, or after Anrong, the Xiao family is no longer able to enter the wooden bracelet, then is the Jade Jin Pavilion going to close?
It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.
After listening to Xiao Zhan's words, An Rong fell into deep thought.
She knew that Xiao Zhan was right, but the headdress of the Jade Jin Pavilion was so exquisite that no one could compare.
If you want to design a jewelry picture that can be compared to the jewelry in a wooden bracelet, it is difficult to compare to the sky.
"Your idea will be difficult to come true overnight, so you can only do your best," An Rong sighed lightly.
It seems that she is going to work the painting masters of the Jade Pavilion.
"What about the old jewelry?" An Rong asked.
"Keep it in the treasury of the Jade Brocade Pavilion," Xiao Zhan replied.
An Rong thought for a while and said, "Then I'll go to the Jade Brocade Pavilion tomorrow." ”
Xiao Zhan wrinkled his brows, "If you want a jewelry picture, you can ask the shopkeeper to send it." ”
An Rong shook his head, "I want to go and see how the newly created headdress of the Jade Brocade Pavilion is." ”
Xiao Zhan nodded.
After eating, Xiao Zhan went to the study.
An Rong walked around the courtyard and watched the sunset.
When the evening breeze was blowing on the small bridge, Zhao Cheng appeared.
He was responsible for watching the adultery between Princess Zhuang and the second master, and inquired about the illness of the county lord of Xirou by the way.
"Princess Chao Tilt doesn't seem to be sure to save the county lord of Xirou," Zhao Chengdao.
An Rong smiled, "She wasn't sure before. ”
Who knows if it's true or false?
Zhao Cheng shook his head lightly and said, "This time it seems to be true, she noticed that the face of the county lord of Xirou was caused by many kinds of poisoning, saying that she didn't know the type and dosage of the poison, and there was no way to detoxify it, and the face of the county lord of Xirou couldn't be ......." ”
Zhao Cheng said, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead.
God, the medicinal powder he poured casually at that time, God knows which ones he used and how much he used?
"And then?" An Rong asked.
"Then the second master arrived, and his subordinates came back for fear of revealing their whereabouts," Zhao Cheng replied.
Those two people get together, and it's definitely not a good thing.
Zhao Cheng was worried that Princess Zhuang would lose her mind when she was angry.
An Rong also thought of it, Princess Zhuang must have hated her very much.
It's just that she lives in Xiao Guogong's Mansion, even if she is angry, she can't do anything, An Rong is worried about the Hou Mansion.
Because her eyelids jumped.
An Rong instructed Zhao Chengdao, "Find a secret guard to go to the Hou Mansion to sue my father, and let the Hou Mansion prevent Princess Zhuang's revenge." ”
Zhao Cheng was ordered to retreat.
An Rong stood at the head of the bridge, looking at the last touch of sunset in the sky.
An Rong's face was a little cold.
She had a foreboding feeling that something big was going to happen in Kyoto tonight. R1152
