Chapter 39: Maifan Stone
On that day, the sky is clear, the clouds are not stained, the distant mountains are delicate, and the wind is warm.
Today is the day after Jing Xi returned to Beijing, and it is also the day when Jing Xi's mother entered the imperial mausoleum.
Jing Xi got up early in the morning, accompanied by his father, and his younger brothers, sent his mother to the imperial mausoleum to sleep.
The capital was already lively at this time, and everyone in the world knew that the prince had returned to Beijing as early as yesterday, and those dignitaries and nobles did not come to visit at this juncture, and they all stayed peacefully.
But he always kept an eye on the palace, for fear of missing any opportunity to make good friends.
Therefore, the next day was the day when Princess Rong entered the imperial tomb, and many people learned the news.
Outside the magnificent and empty imperial mausoleum, King Rong and his children watched the coffin enter the imperial mausoleum here, with a solemn expression and reluctance in their eyes, until everything came to an end, Jing Xi and others took the carriage back to the palace, and it was nearly noon at this time.
In King Rong's mansion
"Lord Wang, lunch is ready, but do you want to pass the meal now?" Gu Yang greeted him.
"Let's pass the meal, I should be hungry. Also, bring the millet porridge. ”
King Rong spoke, it was already noon at this time, and after coming down in the morning, except for the sons who had eaten some goat's milk halfway, the daughter had not eaten much, and she should be hungry.
As for this millet porridge, it is for two small ones, and now that they are more than six months old, they can gradually eat some complementary foods.
"Hungry, aren't you?" King Rong put his sons on a special chair, and then picked up his daughters and placed them on the red sandalwood chair next to him.
Hey, people who are small have no human rights, don't be hugged at every turn, Jing Xi thought, so helpless, I really hope I can grow up quickly.
"Hungry." I wanted to say that I wasn't hungry, but my body's reaction told me that it was time for my little body to eat. So Jingxi had no choice but to speak, her voice was soft, and she heard it in her father's heart.
"Lord Wang, please eat." The maids brought their lunch one after another, and the chief on the side waved them down, and he spoke, and then prepared to serve the masters.
", let's eat." Aunt Gu and Aunt Zhang on the side carefully fed their younger brothers with millet porridge.
This Aunt Zhang came from Kangyang County, and Aunt Gu is Gu Yang's wife.
"Awkward." King Rong picked up a piece of meat and put it in his daughter's bowl, his eyes soft.
"Thank you, Father." After that, Jing Xi picked up the meat that her father gave her and ate it with relish.
At the same time, I didn't forget to clip a few chopsticks for my father.
"Daddy eats it too."
After finishing the meal, Jing Xi played with his younger brothers for a while, and after they went to sleep, he also quit his father and took Xinliu back to his yard.
The royal family has a big business, even if Jiale Hall is only next to Jingxi's heart sea, but it also takes a lot of time on the road, this palace every two adjacent courtyards, which are still far away in the middle, is already, out of Jiale Hall after Jingxi, equivalent to eating, to the heart of the house, has come over a stick of incense.
Along the way, after passing the rockery corridor, the stone bridge, and passing a lotus pond, I arrived at the dormitory.
I got up early in the morning, and now Jing Xi is also a little tired, so after returning to the room, Jing Xi instructed Xinliu, walked behind the screen to change clothes, and rested on the couch with his middle coat.
As for this new willow, he waited in the outer hall, and from time to time he was looking at it with a book.
Since returning to Beijing with the county lord, Xinliu has studied harder, and he continues to study whenever he has free time, and he does not let go of the training of martial arts in private, just thinking that there are so many excellent sisters in the house, and he must work harder.
Yes, for a while, Xinliu will seize all free time to improve his knowledge, martial arts, and so on.
If it weren't for the lack of time, she would have learned to cook and make delicious pastries for the county lord herself.
After following the county lord for so long, the county lord likes food, and Xinliu also knows it, so when he saw the pastries made by Xia He and others for the county lord to praise the county lord, Xinliu suddenly had a strong idea of learning to cook in his heart.
It's a pity that recently, her time has been full, and besides, she can't just take care of herself and ignore the county lord.
Speaking of which, the luckiest thing about Shinliu is that he can be by the county lord's side and serve the county lord, which is what many people want.
As far as she knew, there were many maids in the mansion who secretly hoped to be able to go to the county lord's courtyard, and she was also carried by the county lord as the aunt of the housekeeper.
The county lord also arranged errands for her father, and many people in the house were very envious of her.
"Study hard, huh." Shinliu cheered himself up, and then immersed himself in the book, of course, not forgetting to keep an eye on it, in case the county lord shouted that he didn't hear it.
out-of-hospital training ground,
Gu Yizheng and Jiang Wenjiang Wu and others were exercising, and several of them were like Xinliu, and after arriving at the palace, they worked harder.
I thought to myself, there are many people in this palace who are more capable than them, if they don't work hard, how will they serve the county lord in the future? I have been following the county lord for a few months, how can they be? Yes, they will not let go of every training and learning opportunity.
It was the behavior of a few of them that severely stimulated everyone in the palace, Gu Yi and the others worked so hard, what reason did they have not to work hard?
In this way, a virtuous circle is followed, and the people in the palace are like being beaten with chicken blood, and everything is developing for the better.
……
East Palace Jiyang Hall
"Your Highness, the people who went to search arrived in Beijing this morning and have already brought back the medicine stone that His Highness wanted." Xiao Feng, the prince's henchman, wore a black robe, with a sword pinned to his waist, and strode into the Extreme Sun Palace.
He also holds a red sandalwood box in his hand, rectangular in shape, the size of a food box, with layers of raised floral ornaments like relief, dark purple and red color, and matte lacquer, which looks antique, delicate and elegant.
"Take a look." Prince Xiao Yichen said in a deep voice.
Today's young man, dressed in white and clean, is like a tree with a branch, planted between the green mountains and green waters, and has the essence of heaven and earth; It is like Kunlun jade, falling in the southeast corner, exuding a faint streamer. The posture is leisurely and elegant, such as the green pine among the stones, and the tenacity of the bamboo, the posture is slender, the expression is solemn, and the deep eyes contain a terrifying gaze, which is fleeting, and the eyes are calm for a while, and the humiliation is not shocked.
"Your Highness, please see, according to the news that came earlier, the thing in front of you is the medicine stone that Your Highness is looking for." Xiao Feng took a step forward and handed over the rosewood box with both hands.
Syllable!
As a result, the boy held the box with one hand and opened the lock on the box with the other, only to hear a snap, and the box opened in response.
What caught my eye was a few small gray and white stones, and some white sandwiches could be seen with the naked eye, although I didn't understand how the little girl used these stones to make anti-poison beads, but the little girl's medical skills were obviously very powerful.
If Xiao Feng knew that the medicine stone that most of the people had sent to find was said to be a stone by His Highness, he would have to die in the heart, well, although it does seem to be a stone, I just don't know how this county master turned waste into treasure.
Obviously, this medicinal stone is a pile of useless stones in their eyes, but they didn't expect it to be able to be made into poison avoidance beads.
After a few glances, the boy closed the wooden box, set it aside, and then said, "Where did you find it, buy that place, and circle it to make a courtyard." ”
With a single word, the young man let the people below operate quickly. This also gave rise to the later Liangzhou Annex.
In the future, this is a courtyard that Jing Xi likes to go to. Of course, I won't say much here.
"I don't know what the little girl will do." The young man muttered, his slender fingers supporting his chin as he rubbed against his smooth porcelain chin.
As everyone knows, no matter how low the volume is, Xiao Feng, including the secret guards in the secret, can also hear it clearly.
The people present are all masters of Ouchi, and this subtle voice can also be heard.
Then, Xiao Feng spoke: "Your Highness, this morning King Rong and the princess of the county sent the princess to the imperial tomb to sleep, and I heard the news from the secret guard that the county lord rested after lunch, and he may have woken up at this time." ”
Xiao Feng told his Highness about the news he had gotten.
His Royal Highness, who had always been expressionless, praised him quite appreciatively at this time.
The young man said, "You send this medicine stone to the palace." After that, he glanced at the box, and then briefly instructed.
"Yes, Your Highness." When Xiao Feng heard this, he picked up the wooden box and was about to turn around.
"Wait, if she doesn't wake up, don't wake her up."
The young man said again, he only returned to the palace yesterday, and he hasn't rested yet, and he is busy with Aunt Wang's affairs so early today, so he doesn't have much rest.
"Yes, Your Highness, the subordinate will send it here." Xiao Feng tightened the box tightly, bowed down, walked out of the Extreme Yang Palace, and then walked all the way towards the Rongwang Mansion.
At this time, it was daytime, there were many pedestrians on the road, Xiao Feng took up light work, specially approached the road, and after a while, he arrived in front of the palace.
After entering the palace, Xiao Feng went straight to Xinhai Residence.
When King Rong knew that the prince's servants came to deliver the medicine stone that his daughter had found last time, he did not stop him, it was Xiao Feng who came to the courtyard of the county lord under the leadership of Gu Yang.
As early as before, when his daughter talked about the medicine stone, King Rong ordered someone to go down to look for it, and unknown people thought he was in some kind of treasure.
It's just that when his men and horses found Liangzhou, they found that they had already been taken first, and the people below had to find another place.
It's just that I didn't expect that those people in Liangzhou were sent by the prince, which is a coincidence.
As soon as he entered the Heart Sea Residence and passed through the cloister rockery, Xiao Feng saw the county lord and the maid named Xinliu beside her feeding the fish in the pavilion.
I saw that the county lord in a pink shirt was sitting in the pavilion, holding a plate of bait in his hand, and kept throwing it into the lotus pond.
It's only spring, and the lotus flowers in this pond haven't bloomed yet, but the goldfish and others inside have gathered to bait the place.
When I got closer, I saw that these fish were in strange shapes, colorful and colorful, and they all gathered together to compete for bait, so happy.
"I've seen the county lord." Xiao Feng bowed and saluted Jing Xi.
"It's Xiao Feng, no courtesy. Uncle Gu, you're here too, please take a seat. Jing Xi knew that someone was coming, but he didn't look back, but focused on throwing bait into the lotus pond, thinking it was Jiang Wen and others.
Hearing Xiao Feng's voice, he turned around, Xiao Feng and Gu Yang stood side by side, and Xiao Feng seemed to be holding something in his hand, and the whole person looked a little dusty.
Xiao Feng's heart: Isn't it, His Royal Highness asked him to send things to the county lord, this way from the East Palace to the palace, although it is a short road, it takes a lot of time to ride a horse.
"Lord Xie." It was Gu Yang who answered, but he didn't sit still.
Jing Xi handed the bait plate to Shinyanagi behind him, and Shinyanagi immediately took out a handkerchief and wiped it for the county lord.
When he looked up, he caught a glimpse of a wooden box that Xiao Feng was still holding in his hand, and said, "What is this?" ”
Jing Xi was a little puzzled, frowning slightly, and his smooth porcelain white face suddenly looked suspicious.
"County Lord, this is the medicine stone sent by His Royal Highness to his subordinates, the county lord will see if this is what the county lord is looking for?" Xiao Feng stepped forward and presented the box with both hands.
"Oh? Brother Chen asked me to send it? Let me see. Jing Xi said as he spoke, and Xinliu stepped forward to take the wooden box and handed it to his county lord.
Jing Xi opened it and saw that the stone inside was gray and white, sandwiched with a white sandwich, and the surface was finely crushed and granular.
"That's right, that's it, this is called Maifan Stone, and it's also a kind of medicine stone, thank Brother Chen for me, and when I make the finished product, I will thank him personally."
Jing Xi was delighted, he didn't expect to find the medicine stone so quickly, and happily put away the box, and he was not welcome.
