Chapter 187: Ning Wangfu
In a moment, the woman in white had already run to Zhou Heng's car, glanced at the bronze medal of the Rejuvenation Hall hanging on the car, and the woman knelt down solemnly.
"Qiu Niang hasn't asked for the name of the nobleman yet, and then she has no way to repay the favor and is very afraid."
Zhou Heng handed the jade pendant and the handkerchief to Boss Xue and motioned for him to return the things to the woman.
Although Boss Xue was a little reluctant, he still took it and jumped out of the car and handed the things to the woman who called herself Qiu Niang.
Zhou Heng looked at the window and said:
"You can take the things, no need to thank you, the doctor is benevolent, but I can't see anyone who is downcast and can't be cured, I hope you don't have other thoughts, you don't have to keep your name, Brother Xue set off."
Qiu Niang didn't say anything more, knelt on the ground with a handkerchief in her hand, Boss Xue raised her whip and shouted in front:
"Let's go!"
Immediately, the carriage in front of him drove slowly, Zhou Heng lowered the curtain of the car window, and saw that the thin figure was very reverently bowing and knocking.
Closed his eyes, leaned against the wall of the carriage, and thought about the whole process, maybe he was a little unkind, but this Qiu Niang's appearance was too coincidental, which inevitably made people doubt the motive.
Zhu Yunmo and Liu Renli, one was ordered to go to work, and the other was ordered to return to Beijing, so they were idlers.
If there is a little fragrant chance encounter along the way, it is not only a conversation between dignitaries and dignitaries after dinner, but it may be a stain, and this kind of thing can be eliminated or eliminated.
shook his head, hugged the hand stove that Liu Xiu'er gave him, wrapped the fox fur on his body tightly, and gradually fell asleep in the shaking of the carriage.
I don't know how long it took, Zhou Heng fell asleep several times in a daze, and a shouting woke him up.
"Phew!"
Then the carriage shook and stopped.
Zhou Heng lifted the curtain on the window to see, it was all dark outside the window, more than a dozen lanterns were constantly swaying, and a huge red lacquered door appeared right in front of him, and the three wooden plaques with gilded characters on the Ning Wangfu were particularly conspicuous.
Zhou Heng hurriedly threw down the cold hand stove, tidied up his clothes and bun, and the car door opened just at this time.
"Let's get here, let's get off."
Zhou Heng got out of the car slowly, and saw Zhu Yunmo and Pang Xiao on the steps, Zhou Heng walked over quickly and saluted Zhu Yunmo with a fist.
"Shizi, why don't we go to the inn to rest, there are too many people in the Rejuvenation Hall and Lingshan Village, and I am afraid that it will disturb the purity of King Ning's Mansion."
Zhu Yunmo looked him up and down, rolled his eyes very indecently, and then leaned close to Zhou Heng's ears and whispered:
"Are you afraid of running into my sister-in-law?"
Zhou Heng paused, looked at Zhu Yunmo, and grinned.
"The son of the world is wise, Zhou Heng is timid and afraid, when he comes to the capital, his eyes are dark, so as not to get into trouble."
Zhu Yunmo suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhou Heng's sleeve.
"Come less, why didn't you say it before, it's too late now, our carriages and horses in Tongzhou are all prepared by the palace, Uncle Huang issued a holy decree, she dares to show me a face, this is the matter, I still wish she would do something!" Let's go, follow me back to the house, your medicines have been sent to the East Hospital, don't worry that someone will guard it. ”
When it comes to this, how can Zhou Heng shirk it, anyway, it's not that he hasn't eaten and drunk with Zhu Yunmo in Meiyuan, but this time he brought thirty or forty more mouthfuls.
Turning around to see if he didn't see Liu Xiu'er and Su Xiaoxiao, Zhou Heng asked Boss Xue in a low voice.
"What about Xiu'er and Miss Su Wu?"
"They just went directly to General Su's mansion, and they also took Dong'er and Sheng'er, and the two little ones like to follow Chun Tao, saying that they will come back tomorrow."
Zhou Heng nodded, there are a bunch of old men here, even if there are Aunt Zhang and a few women, Xiu'er and Chun Tao still feel restrained, and it is good to go to General Su's Mansion.
Everyone walked inside, and the steward in the palace was already kneeling at the door waiting for Zhu Yunmo.
When I saw someone come in, I smiled like a father and said hello.
"Welcome back to ......"
Zhu Yunmo just hummed, raised his foot and kicked the person in front of him away.
"Get out of the way, where is Zhu Sanfu dead, get here."
Butler Zhu of Meiyuan arrived at the palace one step earlier, just to arrange Zhu Yunmo's food and accommodation in advance, and ran over from behind the crowd.
"Shizi, the slave and maid are here."
"Hurry up and arrange accommodation for everyone, one by one is hungry all the way, hurry up and let the back kitchen arrange food, rest early, we still have something to do tomorrow, is the east courtyard vacated?"
Zhu Sanfu hurriedly saluted, "The east courtyard has long been vacated, and the charcoal fires in each room are warm, just waiting for the prince to come back, as for Zhou Gongzi, I arranged the deer garden next door to you, do you follow the slave and maid?" ”
Zhu Yunmo didn't say a word, and walked straight forward, Zhou Heng just followed him, turned around and glanced at Boss Xue, Boss Xue instantly understood what he meant, and said to Qu Ziping:
"The things are counted, and I will accompany my son to rest."
Qu Ziping and the others were originally very nervous, but looking at the attitude of the prince towards Zhou Heng, one by one they lost their initial restraint, and quickly nodded with a smile.
Walking along the verandah towards the courtyard behind, Zhou Heng's eyes kept looking everywhere, although it was already night, the entire palace was still brightly lit, especially on both sides of the verandah, the snow on the ground had been cleaned.
After going around a few times, he finally came to Zhu Yunmo's courtyard, and Zhou Heng hurriedly stopped.
"Shizi, it's not early, it's hard to get a rest, we still have important things to do tomorrow."
Zhu Yunmo grabbed Zhou Heng's arm, "Let's go, let's eat first, let's talk about the rest, at this moment, this Ning Wangfu is ours, and no one else is here." ”
Zhou Heng was stunned, looked up at Pang Xiao, and saw him looking at himself with a smile, obviously he had known about this for a long time, Zhou Heng didn't bother anymore, and followed Zhu Yunmo into the room.
The wine and food have already been prepared, the room is indeed very warm, the four charcoal basins of silver charcoal are placed in the room with charcoal cages, Zhu Yunmo took off the big daffle and threw it to Pang Xiao, and Zhou Heng also removed the big dan outside.
After cleaning his hands, Zhou Heng did not rush to the table, but stood in front of a charcoal cage by the window and pondered slightly, Pang Xiao handed Zhou Heng a cup of tea.
Boss Xue was standing behind, he didn't have an outer robe, he was wearing a cotton robe with the characteristics of the Rejuvenation Hall, and he had a lot of responsibilities at the moment.
"It seems that Xiao Bo has long known about the affairs of Jingzhong? By the way, where are Meng Xiaoyou, father and son and the imperial doctor? ”
With a smile on his face, Pang Xiao said:
"Don't worry, on the way back, I have already asked people to enter Beijing first, and handed a note to Lord Zhang, at this time, the two have been escorted to Dali Temple and imprisoned, as for the imperial doctor, he is still locked up in King Ning's mansion for the time being, and the imperial doctor still has to see Lord Zhang Fuling as soon as possible before making plans."
Zhou Heng breathed a sigh of relief, and Pang Xiao continued:
"Although that person didn't make a move on Meiyuan again, she should know everything that happened in Qingping County, and the emperor's edict is not a secret. Moreover, Zhu Sanfu had already been sent back to tidy up the yard, and she took her son to serve on the grounds that her grandmother was seriously ill. ”
Zhou Heng nodded, the water here is too deep, and if you don't get it right, it will be an abyss, so you should be cautious.
"What are you talking about, I'm hungry to eat."
As soon as these words came out, everyone hurriedly sat down, Zhu Sanfu personally beside Zhu Yunmo cloth vegetables, just after two bites, Zhu Yunmo picked up a sundries dish and spit out a piece of meat in his mouth.
"This is for people?"
Zhou Heng was originally very hungry, but when he heard this, he instantly lost his appetite, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Zhu Yunmo with a resentful expression, and before he could speak, Zhu Sanfu had already hurriedly bowed down.
"Shizi is angry, the cooks here are all original, and the taste may not be to your liking, how about I replace them early tomorrow?"
Zhu Yunmo waved his hand, "Don't replace them all?" It makes me think so much that I don't understand people, just prepare two cooks for me alone, hey Uncle Xiao let people prepare hot pot! This thing is really a waste of food, remove it. ”
......
In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Heng finished washing, and as soon as he came out, he saw Qu Ziping and Desheng standing in the courtyard, as if they were talking about something.
Zhou Heng hurriedly stepped forward, "How did you sleep last night?" ”
Several people gave Zhou Heng a salute with a satisfied smile on their faces.
"My feet are stained with land, I sleep steadily, the house is very warm, don't worry, master, what are we going to do today?"
Zhou Heng waved his hand, "You guys have a good rest today, I will go to see the shop with Xiao Bo in a while, they have already rebuilt the shop according to our drawings, I don't know how it is going." ”
When they heard this, their eyes lit up, and they looked around Zhou Heng with a pleading face.
"Master, take us there, we also want to see what the Rejuvenation Hall in the capital looks like."
Boss Xue glared, "Look at what, let you rest and rest well, and then some of you will be busy." ”
Zhou Heng looked at everyone and said with a smile:
"Brother Xue is right, some of you will be busy after that, you all go and have a good rest, Qu Ziping, you come over, I have something to tell you alone."
Qu Ziping hurried over, and Zhou Heng said in a low voice:
"Put on a suit of clothes and go to the major medical centers and pharmacies in the capital to walk around, I want to know the general price of their medicines, and which one of them can open an injury department, can it be done?"
Qu Ziping nodded, with excitement on his face.
"Boss, don't worry, I'm good at this, I'll change my outfit after a while, and then dress up to make sure no one can see who I am."
Zhou Heng nodded, Qu Ziping is very smart, and this matter can only be handed over to him.
"Remember, don't show your Shandong accent, not all the Beijing accents I taught you before are good practice, so talk like this in the future, go."
These people all left, Zhou Heng put his hands behind his back, sorted out the big dan on his body, and looked at Boss Xue.
"Let's go, let's go find Xiao Bo and go out."
