Chapter 166: "Hidden Disease"

Due to the illness of Princess Zhong in the palace, there has always been a doctor in the palace. Of course, Gao Zhen would not ask a doctor to come over for the sake of a cousin who had a bad relationship, so he asked the doctor with a very good level to come over to check her pulse. The doctor took the pulse, didn't say anything, and directly injected the needle, and saw that the pity was so frightened that he almost didn't scream. However, the doctor's acupuncture skills seem to be really clever, because not long after he pierced the needle, Zhong Yazhi woke up faintly.

Zhong Yazhi looked weak, turned his eyes and glanced at the situation in the room, and his heart sank. She has often been taken by her aunt to live with her since she was a child, and she is very familiar with the Guangping Palace. The middle road of Wangfu is the place where the three members of the family of Guangping hold a heavy ceremony, meet guests and live, the first half of the east road is the place where the king of Guangping and the prince father and son and the subordinate officials of the palace handle affairs, and the second half is the residence of the prince, and the guest house is on the west road, but there are front and back yards. The front yard is generally used to greet guests whose status is not very important, and the back yard is where the guests stay, where there are not only many houses, but also a small garden in the yard, and even the furnishings used in the house are not ordinary. When Zhong Yazhi came to live in the palace, although he lived in the inner courtyard with his aunt, if the old lady, eldest wife, and second wife of the Zhong family came to live, they must have lived in the backyard of the guest house.

What she is lying on now is the front yard of the guest house, or the wing room. Although this place is indeed closer to the front yard of the main road where she just was, if Gao Zhen really attaches some importance to her, he can at least arrange her in the main room.

With Gao Zhen's attitude, can what her mother asked her to do really succeed? Zhong Yazhi was very worried, which annoyed her aunt. If you use some unpopular means, even if you calculate it, how will you live in the future?

With tears in her eyes, she leaned over to the bed and whispered to her, "Girl? Girl? How are you? Are you still feeling unwell? ”

Zhong Yazhi was awakened by her. He glanced at her slowly, and asked weakly, "Where am I?" What about cousins? ”

Lian Zhu bit her lip hatefully and said, "The girl is in the courtyard of the palace, the prince...... Shizi sent a doctor to treat the girl, and the doctor just gave the injection, does the girl feel better? He asked and glared at the doctor. Quack! Her girl was not sick at all, but she was more agitated and weaker. How can you just stick a needle? If he makes a good deal, how will he explain it? Can he afford it?!

The doctor glanced at her and put away the needle bag with a blank face. Said slowly: "Miss Zhong is fine, but she has been weaker recently, so it would be good to eat more water, and she will recuperate for a few days after returning home." Avoid great joy and sorrow. Also be careful not to go out to blow the wind, otherwise you will leave the root of the disease, which is a lifelong thing. ”

Lianzhu was bluffed: "Don't talk nonsense! Our girl is just a little weak, where will she leave a lifetime of disease? When these words came out, what would she do with the rest of her life?

The doctor looked like an old god: "The old man has been practicing medicine for decades, and he still has some eyesight when he asks himself." The little girl's family is ignorant, does not pay attention to maintenance, and messes with her body. I didn't think anything about it when I was young, and I waited for ten or eight years. You'll know it's amazing. Good medicine is bitter, and good words are contrary to the ear, believe it or not, let it be up to you. After finishing speaking, he went to prescribe a prescription by himself, and there were dozens of medicinal herbs on the prescription, and there were a few rare flavors. Zhong Yazhi and Lianzhu didn't understand pharmacology, and when they saw that the prescription was so complicated, their hearts were cold.

Lianzhu was worried in her heart, and she didn't know what to do next, the girl actually had a hidden disease, should she be cured first? But Mrs. Zhong specially explained to her...... After hesitating again and again, she watched the doctor leave, gritted her teeth, and said to the maidens waiting on the side: "Our girl's condition is so strict, I don't dare to be proficient, and I also ask the palace to report to our old lady, lord and wife." ”

The leading mother-in-law had already received Gao Zhen's instructions, and agreed to come down: "This is natural, please also ask the cousin to be calm and not impatient, and take rest and recuperation as the best." So he went out with a few people, leaving only two little girls in the house to listen to the orders.

Lian Zhu made an excuse to drive the two little girls to the outer room, and saw that only she and Zhong Yazhi were left in the inner room, and hurriedly leaned over and lowered her voice: "Girl, the prince refused to let you live in the main courtyard, and he didn't come to see how your condition was, what should I do?" If he doesn't come, how can we do what my wife has commanded? ”

Zhong Yazhi blushed, and whispered: "If you can't do it, there's no way, I think he is unintentional, it's better to ......"

"No way!" Lianzhu quickly interrupted her, "Girl, you can't back down at this time. If we don't do anything, when the will comes, you will marry the Marquis of San'in, and you will be locked up in the Marquis of San'in Mansion for the rest of your life! Do you want to live like that? ”

Zhong Yazhi's face turned pale, biting his lip and not speaking. Lian Zhu glanced out a few times, and lowered her voice a little more: "I asked the people in the palace to send a letter to my wife, and when my wife comes, there will definitely be a way." It's just that we can't stay in this palace and wait, so why don't we invite the prince over to see the girl. If he refuses, let the princess know that the girl is sick and in the palace. How can the girl also be the princess's niece, the princess is angry again, and she also hurts you in her heart, she must not worry about your body, and when the time comes, are you afraid that the princess will not let her son come to see the girl? ”

Zhong Yazhi whispered: "Mother has already made arrangements, we just have to wait here for news." With so many people waiting outside, we can't get out lightly, let alone do anything, and acting rashly is easy to arouse suspicion. ”

Lianzhu thought about it, and could only pin her hopes on Mrs. Zhongda.

Over there, Gao Zhen just listened to the doctor's report, and learned that Zhong Yazhi was actually not sick, but her body was a little weak, and she probably hadn't eaten well for two or three days, and she was dizzy. The prescription prescribed by the doctor is actually for tonifying the body, and by the way, it also has a little effect of regulating menstruation and warming the uterus, which is very good for her. However, the doctor's words about Zhong Yazhi's illness were just to scare her master and servant.

He smiled and said to Gao Zhen: "A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, who is still growing her body, and she doesn't eat at every turn, how can her body get better?" Besides, she may often get angry and don't know how to eat. I only blindly eat the decoction that defeats the fire. The medicine was so cold that it would make her skin crystal clear, but it wouldn't do her body any good. Although the old decay is to scare her. But it's not made up either. She is still young now, and she is fine, as long as she doesn't drink all that messy stuff, takes medicine according to my prescription, and takes it for a month or two, she will be fine. If you ignore it, you will have three years and five years. The root of the disease has become the climate, and it is difficult to cure it. ”

Gao Zhen smiled slightly and bowed his head: "Thank you, doctor, I will order someone to tell my cousin." ”

Not long after the doctor left. Cao's mother came over, she had just sent Mrs. Zhong out of the house.

Gao Zhen asked her: "What can Mrs. Zhong say that she shouldn't say in front of her mother?" ”

Mother Cao's face was a little tangled: "I mentioned some of it, but I only said it, and I saw that the princess was cold." She shut up. Let's talk about other homely things. I have been listening to the sidelines, and I feel that although Mrs. Zhong wants to persuade the princess to ask for marriage, the princess refuses to answer, and she knows the opportunity. It's just that the Zhong family suddenly came again, and wanted to invite the second wife back, saying that the old lady heard that the second lady came to the palace to see the princess, and I don't know who arranged a few inconsistencies in the old lady's ear, and the old lady fainted. The family feels bad. I specially invited the second wife. ”

Gao Zhen's face showed a strange look: "Grandmother fainted? "According to her old man's temperament, shouldn't she be so angry that she jumps to her feet?

Cao's mother's entanglement lies in this. This is really not like Mrs. Zhong, but the mother-in-law of the Zhong family said in front of Princess Zhong of Guangping that Mrs. Zhong fainted, and no matter how angry the Zhong family was, it was impossible to really ignore her own mother, so she had already sent someone to follow Mrs. Zhong to the Zhong family, and it was important to find out Mrs. Zhong's condition and report it back to the house. Cao's mother is worried that the Zhong family may use a bitter trick to force the Zhong family to do something for her mother's family again, and the first thing to bear the brunt of is naturally Zhong's elegant marriage.

Gao Zhen remembered Zhao Xiu's previous reminder, and felt more and more that the Zhong family must be calculating something, so he told Cao's mother about Zhong Yazhi's "fainting", of course, did not miss the doctor's diagnosis report.

Cao's mother was startled at first, but then she heard that Zhong Yazhi was actually not sick, so she slowed down: "What is this cousin?" Even if he heard that Second Mrs. Zhong was coming to slander the princess, there was no need to be in such a hurry. If our princess wanted to ask for a decree, she would have already been on the table, so do you need to be persuaded by others? How can the cousin be the daughter of the eunuch's family, how can she listen to the wind and rain, hurriedly chase after Mrs. Zhong Er, and cry and make a fuss in the courtyard of our palace? It's really unseemly! And what did she say? Even if she was really reluctant to that family business earlier, she should be a shame for His Holiness. The princess used to like her because she thought she was sensible and polite, and if she knew that she had become like this now, she might not be disappointed in her heart. ”

Cao's mother was also an old member of the Zhong family in the past, and she would say this today, but Zhong's elegant appearance was too disappointing to help.

Gao Zhen pondered for a moment, then said: "The fact that my grandmother fainted may not be true, it is very likely that she just wanted to call Mrs. Zhong back." But this matter has already crossed the road in front of the concubine, and the people sent to the Zhong Mansion may report the matter of the cousin's fainting to the concubine when they come back. Mom should go back to her mother first, and then tell her the truth about her cousin, so that she doesn't worry. ”

Cao's mother responded, but she wanted to speak and stopped: "Shizi, if the princess is worried about her cousin, she will probably let you go over to greet ......"

Gao Zhen was very calm: "Mom is too worried, and the concubine is not confused." Besides, my cousin has a maiden mother-in-law by her side, and the Zhong family will soon send someone to pick her up. ”

Sure enough, not long after Cao's mother returned to the backyard, the mother-in-law who went to Zhong's mansion came back, and brought a representative of Mrs. Zhong, and said back to the Zhong family that Mrs. Zhong was stunned by Mrs. Zhong's behavior, and now she has relieved her breath, and there is no big problem, but she is worried about her granddaughter. Because Zhong Yazhi learned that his aunt was stunned by his grandmother, he chased all the way to the palace angrily, but because he was too excited, he fainted in the front yard. Gao Zhen, the prince of Guangping, has already informed the Zhong family of the matter, but the Zhong family is busy with Mrs. Zhong's fainting, and they have no time to take their daughter home for the time being, so they can only ask the palace to take care of Zhong Yazhi for a night, and Mrs. Zhong will come to see her daughter tomorrow.

Cao's mother quickly whispered to Zhong Ya's true "illness", and Zhong's face became a little ugly, but she was still a little worried: "Is it really okay?" Doesn't it mean that there is a root cause? Did you prescribe a prescription? Will there be consequences? Cao's mother hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the princess, the doctor has prescribed a prescription, saying that as long as the cousin takes medicine according to the prescription for a month or two, the guarantee can eradicate the disease." Even if you don't eat it, it's actually nothing, at most, it's more difficult for your heirs in the future. ”

Zhong's face softened: "It's okay." The sister-in-law is becoming more and more out of tune now, the child is sick, and she doesn't take it back to recuperate early, but she is left in someone else's house. Doesn't it mean that my mother's condition is not serious? How busy are they now? Didn't even have the time to send a few people to pick up the girl? She called Yanyun, "You go to the guest house to see how the cousin is, if there is no serious problem, let someone prepare the car and send her master and servant home." Just tell the Zhong family, the cousin is already a big girl, what does it look like to spend the night in someone else's house? Since the family can't spare time to pick them up, I will share their worries. ”

Yanyun was stunned, bowed in response to the order, and when he turned around, a strange color flashed in his eyes. (To be continued......)
