022: Soldier
Nalan Jinxiu wanted to say that she had only seen Zong Xuanyi's custom ink, as for whether this ink was widely used, where did she know? But she understood that she absolutely couldn't say that, so she had to stop answering his words and interrupted: "Is there gold leaf, musk and bezoar added to your ink?"
Ji Hongye just didn't know that she deliberately diverted the topic, and replied lightly: "There are also rhino horns, pearl powder, amber, green daisy, and snake gall." ”
"Gold leaf soothes the nerves, musk is channeled, and bezoar rhino horn detoxifies...... You're making ink from medicine. ”
"Medicinal ink has long been recorded in ancient books, used to write with a pleasant taste, made into such a small piece and easy to carry, when necessary, it can also be used as medicine, both internal and external. ”
Nalan Jinxiu felt that this method was really excellent, and he didn't want to praise him in vain, so he rolled his eyes and said, "This is a good method, but it's ...... I didn't know you were quite beautiful before. ”
"Love beauty?" Ji Hongye was confused by her.
"In the "Compendium of Materia Medica", it is said that "pearls are salty, sweet, cold and non-toxic, calming the heart; Apply to the hands and feet, remove the skin and inverted the cheeks, fall phlegm, remove facial spots, and stop diarrhea...... 'You added it to Murray, isn't that what beauty lovers like?'
Ji Hongye smiled faintly: "You think the medicinal materials are special, I still have something to understand, I don't know if my cousin can solve my doubts?"
Nalan Jinxiu knew very well what he wanted to ask, since she saved Ji Hongxuan, she knew that her medical skills could not be hidden, and she had already thought about how to deal with it, but at this time she pretended not to know: "If you want to know anything, just ask." ”
"When did you practice the words?"
"What?" it was her turn to react, and she had already thought of a set of rhetoric about medical skills, but he asked about writing.
"I mean, your handwriting wasn't very good before, but you could read it anyway, but now it's so bad. ”
Nalan Jinxiu knew that his handwriting was not good. As a doctor, she writes prescriptions very quickly when she is busy, and she has not deliberately practiced it over the years. After hearing his words, he coughed lightly twice in embarrassment, and couldn't say why for a while.
Ji Hongye seemed to have expected her reaction, he pressed the paper with a paperweight, and began to write, writing Yang Shen's "Linjiang Immortal":
The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes. Success or failure turns empty, the green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times.
The white-haired fisherman is on the river, accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet, and many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking.
His handwriting is excellent, the front part is the main book, the pen is upright, the momentum is strong, the second half is the line of calligraphy, floating like a floating cloud, strong and natural. Nalan Jinxiu couldn't help but praise after seeing it: "My cousin's words are really excellent." ”
Ji Hongye also ignored her sycophants, looking serious: "You are a woman, it is a little difficult for you to write a book." I think my line writing is quite passable, write some notes out, you take it back and draw it, okay?"
Nalan Jinxiu suddenly shook his head like a rattle: "I have no talent for writing, you are so busy, don't waste your time!"
Ji Hongye didn't give her a chance to refuse: "I'm not busy, I just have a break for the past two days." ”
"Then you take advantage of the rest time to spend more time with your grandmother, she is very worried about you. ”
Ji Hongye couldn't hear that she was making excuses, so she sighed helplessly: "The Ji family is a scholarly family, even if grandmother doesn't want your woman to read the "Four Books", but this word can't be written too ugly and hurt your face." ”
Nalan Jinxiu can be regarded as a preliminary understanding of his cousin's power, if she does not agree to practice calligraphy, it will hurt the lintel of the Ji family. After all, Xu Jinsheng grew up in the Ji family, so he could only reluctantly say, "Okay!"
"Go back, I'll go to my grandmother tomorrow morning to say goodbye, and I'll bring you the notebook by the way." ”
The corners of Nalan Jinxiu's eyes twitched, feeling that he was nineteen years old, and he was forced to practice calligraphy like a child, and there was a lot of bitterness in his heart, but his face was faint, and he saluted him in a proper manner, ready to go back.
"The back door is not easy to walk, let Long Yi send you over. ”
There was still a calm and light tone behind him, and Nalan Jinxiu felt more and more that his cousin was enlightened. I actually knew that she was going to go back through the back door, and if she contacted him again in the future, she still had to pay more attention.
I don't feel that time is fast when I have something in my heart, as if I entered the yard in a blink of an eye. Seeing Ji Ping guarding the door, his eyes were red, Nalan Jinxiu couldn't help laughing, and quipped: "What's wrong with you? You were reprimanded by your master? Why do you still cry for such a big person?"
As soon as Ji Ping was told by her, he began to wipe his tears again, crying: "The sixth young master wants to join the army and go to the border." ”
"Why didn't I hear him say it before, is this news accurate?"
"It's true, go to Northern Xinjiang, and I'll leave tomorrow. ”
"Northern Xinjiang?" Nalan Jinxiu later realized that Ji Hongxuan was going to go to the king of Zhenbei, that is, her nominal father...... In this case, she seems to have to make a statement.
"Yes! I heard that the winter is very cold, and the snow is higher than that of people, because the roads are difficult to travel, and there is no supply, so it is very difficult. ”
As soon as he said this, Nalan Jinxiu began to sympathize with her father. In order to stabilize the border pass, he has endured so much hardship, and he has to be calculated by the courtiers in Jinling, so he can't help but lean towards the north when he speaks: "My father and brother are in the north of Xinjiang, they must love the soldiers, and they will not be as bad as you say." ”
"That's different, the prince and the prince are both military generals, and they have been in northern Xinjiang for so many years, so they have long been used to it. Our young master, although he is a concubine, he also has no worries about food and clothing, how can he endure that kind of suffering?"
Nalan Jinxiu was anxious by his crying, and didn't want to argue with him more, so she lifted her skirt and entered the house. Seeing Ji Hongxuan, the old god was sitting on the chair on the ground, teasing the little white cat in the cage, frowning: "Where did you catch it from?"
He smiled heartily, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "This time it wasn't caught. ”
"It's not caught, could it be that it came by itself?"
"You see that this cat has one blue eye, one yellow eye, and is snow-white, isn't it particularly strange?"
Nalan Jinxiu leaned down to observe, and found that the color of its two pupils was indeed different, the blue eyes were crystal clear, the yellow eyes were shining gold, and the body size was slightly larger than that of ordinary cats, and he stretched out his fingers to tease it, which was unexpectedly docile. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it, so she simply sat down on a chair, released the cat from the cage, and teased it in her hand.
Ji Hongxuan reached out and patted the top of her hair, and asked with a smile, "Do you like it?"
"yes, I like it. ”
"It's good to like it, this is the fifth brother who went out to do errands, I specially asked him to bring it back for you, it's expensive and rare, but it took a lot of effort to get it. ”
