104 days of thunder and thunder, no good death!
Lu Nianjin heard Yun Jiang ask about Xiao Xun, a trace of bitterness appeared on the corner of his lips, and said, "The prince has something to do, so he will go back to the front yard." ”
Yun Jiang set the meal, looked at the master's face, pursed his lips, and wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed it back and didn't say anything, just said, "The princess will eat first." ”
"Oh," Lu Nianjin responded, took the jade chopsticks she handed over, and ate with his thoughts......
On the other side, Xiao Xun broke into the study with a belly full of anger, and was startled by the bookcase, took a few steps back, and asked suspiciously, "Uncle Shi, what's wrong?" ”
Bing Xing and Bing are both nephews who have served Xiao Xun for many years, but Bing is more lively and used to be more relied on by Xiao Xun, but now that he is gone, Bi Xing will take over his errand.
"You go out first and let Qingyi come in," Xiao Xun glanced at Bixing coldly, and flicked his sleeves and ordered.
Bixing has always been afraid of this uncle, so he immediately bowed down and retreated, and not long after, Qingyi walked in from outside.
"I wonder what the prince commands?" After stopping in the middle of the study, he arched his hand and looked at his gloomy master and asked.
Xiao Xun curled his index finger, tapped the handrail lightly, was silent for a while, and said in a cold voice, "You personally took someone to investigate, who did the princess see and what did she say after returning home?" ”
"Yes, Prince!" Qing Yi agreed, but did not leave immediately, but stood in place for a while, making sure that Xiao Xun had no other instructions, and then bowed and retreated.
The dead soldiers of the "green" generation are similar to scouts in the army, and what they are best at is reconnaissance and collecting information.
Qingyi was one of the best, and it didn't take long for him to come back.
"Got it all figured out?" Xiao Xun put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at him coldly and asked.
Qing Yi bowed his hand respectfully, "Back to the master's words, check it out!" ”
"Say!"
"The crown princess is the Luo Shen Yuan who returned from the back door at the end of the Youshi period, and as soon as she entered the Luo Shen Garden, she was invited to the pharmacy by Miss Ah Yuan......
"Half an hour later, the crown princess and the magpie girl left the pharmacy one after the other, the magpie girl wore two golden bracelets back to the small kitchen to continue the fire, and the crown princess went back to the main room."
After returning to the main room, the crown princess didn't stay long, and after about three quarters of an hour, she took Miss Yun Jiang to the third small courtyard at the back of the National Teacher's Mansion...... That small courtyard was occupied by the princess's companion room, Miss Huanxi and Chen Fuchen. ”
Hearing the names of Huanxi and Chen Fu, Xiao Xun's eyebrows suddenly jumped, and then thinking of the special situation of those two, he guessed that the problem should be here.
"Go on, be more detailed." Thinking like this, he solemnly ordered Qing Yi.
After a while, he arched his hand again, and then carefully explained what happened in the small courtyard.
Huanxi and Chen Fu's small courtyard is no more heavily guarded than Luo Shenyuan, he coerced and lured, and naturally heard more things, almost 100% restored every expression of Lu Nianjin and every word he said.
After Xiao Xun listened, his face was so gloomy that he could almost drip water! The fist clenched.
What a Chen Fu!
It took him a lot of effort and patience to wait until his crown princess softened her heart and was willing to take the initiative to get close to him.
It's good now, as soon as he changed his mind, he beat Jin'er's hardly stretched out hand back with a stick.
No matter how he presses him, whether she is crazy or sad, she doesn't have a soft heart!
Chen Fu, he really damned!
The coldness in his eyes became stronger and stronger, and at a certain moment, he really wanted to rush to the small courtyard to break Chen Fu's body into pieces, but in the midst of the lightning, thinking of Lu Nianjin's guilt and maintenance of Huanxi, he held back again, breathed hard, and after a long time, he looked at Qinger and said coldly, "Chen Fu Tangtu Crown Princess, the crime is unforgivable, give him the punishment of 'boiling eagle'!" Let's do it tonight. ”
"Yes, Prince!" Qingyi agreed and withdrew.
The so-called boiling eagle is not to let the "falcon" sleep, to stay up with it, to make it sleepy, so that for a few days, the wild nature of the eagle is exhausted.
On people, the same cruelty.
Only in this way can the hatred in his heart be slightly eliminated.
Of course, Lu Nianjin didn't know about this.
After she finished breakfast, she went to the pharmacy, Uncle Huang's leg had to be treated as soon as possible, she had to prepare some plaster cast, and Huang Wei's mental problems, she also had to think carefully and write a treatment plan.
This was more than two hours, and by the time she was almost ready, the hourglass in the room had already passed.
Outside, Yun Jiang saw that the candle in the pharmacy had never been extinguished, and she thought that the master hadn't eaten a few bites of dinner, so she simply went to the kitchen and asked Zhang Yuchu to help cook a bowl of small wontons, and walked to the pharmacy.
"Girl, do you want some supper?" Entering the pharmacy, she looked at Lu Nianjin, who was finishing, and asked.
When Lu Nianjin heard this, she touched her stomach, she was really a little hungry, so she nodded, "Come here!" I'm just hungry! ”
"Yes, girl," Yun Jiang agreed, and walked to the table with the tray.
Lu Nianjin glanced at it, "Is it the skill of Imperial Chef Zhang?" ”
Yun Jiang said with a smile, "Tonight is just the turn of Imperial Chef Zhang. ”
Lu Nianjin nodded, took the spoon and ate it.
Yun Jiang saw that his master was happy and satisfied, and he didn't feel sad and sad after the conflict with the prince at all, and couldn't help but sigh.
Lu Nianjin heard Yun Jiang's sigh, raised his head and asked, "Why do you sigh?" ”
Yun Jiang looked at her with complicated eyes and did not speak.
Lu Nianjin swallowed a mouthful of small wontons, pondered for a moment, and quipped, "Could it be that Imperial Chef Zhang bullied you?" ”
Yun Jiang: "......" She didn't expect her master to mention Zhang Yuchu at this juncture, a mouthful of blood almost spurted out, and she said unhappily, "What does this have to do with him?" ”
"Then why are you sighing?"
"Slave maid...... Is the slave thinking about the girl and the prince? ”
"Me? What is the matter between me and the Prince? Lu Nianjin froze for a moment, and then asked casually.
Yun Jiang raised her eyebrows slightly, and whispered tentatively, "Can the slave tell the truth?" ”
Lu Nianjin raised his head, glanced at her with a subtle look in his eyes, and sighed, "Forget it...... To tell the truth, it's generally not good. ”
Yun Jiang: "......" the princess's statement, she was speechless.
Lu Nianjin saw that she was silent, and for the sake of her own tranquility, she didn't say anything, just ate small wontons one by one.
A bowl of wontons looked like about eight or nine, and she quickly finished eating, and she scooped up half of the chicken soup before she got up and said, "I'm done eating, go back to the bath first!" With that, he walked outside.
Yun Jiang sighed silently and silently stayed to clean up the mess......
In the main room, Yun Shu accompanied her for a few days, and she had already gone to rest, and it was Yun Xun who was on duty tonight.
Seeing her come in, Yun Xun took two steps forward, greeted her and said, "Crown Princess, the hot water in the kitchen is ready, do you want to take a bath now?" ”
Lu Nianjin glanced at her and nodded, "Go and prepare!" ”
Yun Xun agreed, and retreated.
It didn't take long for the fragrant soup to be ready, Lu Nianjin loosened her clothes, walked into the bathtub step by step, and let the hot water completely wrap her, at this moment, her body and spirit, which had been tired for many days, finally relaxed.
Yun Xun stood behind her with a silk handkerchief, and asked softly, "The slave maid helps the princess wipe her back?" ”
Lu Nianjin muttered.
Because bathing alone will always be broken into, she is now used to having someone take a bath.
After soaking in the water for a quarter of an hour, when the water was almost cold, she took Yun Xun's hand and walked out of it.
At this time, Yun Jiang also came back from the kitchen, and the two served her together to change her bedclothes and dry her hair.
A dreamless night.
The next day, Lu Nianjin originally planned to go to Guizi Lane to help Uncle Huang treat his legs, but after breakfast, someone came to the palace.
It was the second-class palace maid peony of Kunning Palace, and she was ordered by the queen to urge her to prepare six bottles of scar removal cream as soon as possible and send them to Jiang Rongyue's hands in Jiangfu.
If it weren't for the peony reminder, Lu Nianjin really couldn't remember this incident.
However, in front of the people of Kunning Palace, she would definitely not say it, but she had already prepared half of it, and she would be able to send it to Jiangfu tomorrow.
Peony got the letter and offered to return to the palace to resume his life.
Lu Nianjin asked Yun Xun to send her out.
After sending away the peony, it took another half an hour before she left the National Teacher's Mansion from the back door with Yun Jiang.
The two drove straight to Guizi Lane.
After arriving at the house where the Huang family stayed, Yun Jiang stepped forward and knocked on the door. When she was in the car, she had already heard her master talk about her relationship with the Huang family.
After three or five breaths, the door of the Huang family opened from the inside, and the man was an old man in his fifties, he looked at Lu Nianjin for a long time, suddenly smiled, and said, "You are the crown princess?" The old slave is the one sent by the Zhang family on the other side, it just so happens that our lady is also in there now, so the old slave will take you in? ”
Lu Nianjin nodded lightly, "Then there is Uncle Lao!" So saying, she followed the old man and walked inside.
The old man sent her directly to the flower hall.
In the flower hall, in addition to the Huang family's aunt and Zhang's who were talking, there were four more maids, two of whom were brought by Mrs. Zhang herself, and the other two were standing behind the Huang family's aunt.
"The folk woman has seen the crown princess!"
“…… The women have also seen the crown princess. ”
Seeing her come in, Zhang got up and saluted first.
When the aunt of the Huang family saw Zhang's salute, she also bowed crampedly.
Lu Nianjin smiled at the two, "You don't have to be polite," she said, she stepped forward and personally helped the two up.
After the greetings, she talked about the purpose of today's visit.
As soon as the aunt of the Huang family heard that she was here to treat Uncle Huang's legs, she immediately led her inside......
In the east room of the main room of the second courtyard, on the gum, Uncle Huang was awake, because of his relaxed mood, his face was much better than when he first met.
Seeing Lu Nianjin come in with the medicine box, he smiled at her honestly, "Tingzhi is here!" ”
Lu Nianjin motioned Yun Jiang to put the medicine box on the table, and then stepped forward to say a few more words to Uncle Huang, and after the greetings, he checked his pulse.
"Tingzhi, how is your uncle now?" The aunt of the Huang family stood on the side, and after Lu Nianjin withdrew her hand, she asked cautiously.
When Lu Nianjin heard this, he smiled at the Huang family's aunt, "It's much better, I'll pick up the bones for my uncle now!" ”
"That's good, that's good!" The aunt of the Huang family said repeatedly, and after a while, she asked restraining herself, "Then do you need me to prepare anything?" ”
"No, I've brought everything I should have brought!" Lu Nianjin shook his head, and then said, "The process of bone grafting may be very bloody, so let's go and wait outside!" ”
The Huang family's aunt is really not very bold, especially not bloody, for so many years, she has not even killed chickens and fish, after listening to Lu Nianjin's proposal, she hesitated a little and retreated.
After Lu Nianjin left, Lu Nianjin glanced at Yun Jiang again, Yun Jiang understood, walked to the table and opened the medicine box, took out a cork from it, and handed it to Uncle Huang, "Uncle, I will pinch off the bones you connected before later, this taste is not pleasant, you bite this better." ”
"Thank you, girl." Uncle Huang smiled gratefully, took the cork, and put it in his mouth.
Yun Jiang looked back at Lu Nianjin again, and after making sure that she was ready, she put her palm on Uncle Huang's leg, and wiped it down little by little, and when she got to the wrong place, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she followed it, pinching it hard, and the bones that had grown a little longer broke from the middle.
"Girl, okay," With Uncle Huang's muffled snort, she turned her head to look at Lu Nianjin.
Lu Nianjin stepped forward wearing sterilized gloves, looked at the new bones with neat sections, nodded slightly, and then she used a thin-bladed dagger that had been used to rip off the purulent flesh around the bones.
The process of cutting the meat was a bit long, and Rue Jiang took advantage of this gap to prepare a plaster cloth again.
An hour later, Lu Nianjin finally helped Uncle Huang treat the wound, and then connected the bones and wrapped them neatly with a plaster cloth.
At this time, the sweat on Uncle Huang's forehead had gathered into streams, and the whole person seemed to be fished out of the water.
"Uncle, it's okay!" Lu Nianjin was also sweating profusely and was very tired, she took off her gloves, took out a handkerchief and wiped her sweat, and said tiredly.
Uncle Huang couldn't lift his hand in pain, he rested for a long time before he had the strength to take out the cork in his mouth, squeezed out a smile at Lu Nianjin with difficulty, and said with a crying voice, "Tingzhi, thank you...... Not only in this life, but also in the next life, the uncle will also be a cow and a horse for you! ”
"Uncle is polite." Lu Nianjin smiled, paused, and explained, "Before the plaster is dry, you'd better not get out of bed and wait for a while." When it's all dry, you can walk a few steps on crutches. ”
"Good boy, uncle wrote it down."
In order to relieve his pain, Lu Nianjin told him something else.
It wasn't until Uncle Huang was sleepy that she got up to leave.
Outside, the aunt of the Huang family had been waiting, and when she saw Lu Nianjin coming out, she immediately greeted her, rubbing her hands nervously and said, "Court...... Crown princess, your uncle, how is his leg? ”
Lu Nianjin said what he had just said to Uncle Huang again.
After hearing this, the aunt of the Huang family immediately breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a series of words of gratitude, and even knelt down to kowtow to her.
Lu Nianjin is a modern person in her bones, and what she doesn't like the most is that others kowtow to her, she hurriedly gave Yun Jiang a look, Yun Jiang understood, and immediately stepped forward, supported the Huang family's aunt, and said, "Auntie don't have to be polite, my girl also treats you as a relative, so she will help, otherwise with her identity, she will not help people at will." ”
"I, the people's women, know," the Huang family's aunt said loudly, "In the hearts of the people's women, they have long regarded the princess as their own child," Speaking of this, she seemed to think of something, and carefully added, "If the princess doesn't dislike it......"
"How could I dislike my aunt!" Lu Nianjin held the hand of the Huang family's aunt and said in a gentle tone, "I will never forget that it was my aunt's family who took me in when I was in the most difficult time. ”
The aunt of the Huang family smiled with tears in her eyes, "This is all the blessing of the people's family." ”
Lu Nianjin bent his lips lightly and was not polite.
Because of her current status, the aunt of the Huang family couldn't say anything superfluous, so she said that she would prepare food for her.
When Lu Nianjin heard this, he hurriedly stopped her and said, "It's too late, there are still many things in my family, I have to go back." ”
"Can't you really stay and eat?" The aunt of the Huang family asked very regretfully.
Lu Nianjin shook his head apologetically, "I'm sorry, auntie, I really have to go back, let's wait for the next time when it comes to eating." ”
The aunt of the Huang family nodded sneeringly, paused for a moment, and said with a look of hope, "Then next time before the crown princess comes, let people come and spread the word first, and the women should go to buy vegetables in advance." ”
"Well, I made a note of it, goodbye aunt!"
"The woman sent the princess out!" The aunt of the Huang family followed her, walked out step by step, and sent her to the carriage before going back.
On the carriage, as soon as the aunt of the Huang family left, Lu Nianjin's face immediately became ugly.
Yun Jiang knew that his master had an injury on his arm, and when he saw this, he hurriedly asked, "Girl, but the wound on your wrist is open?" ”
Lu Nianjin nodded in pain.
She slowly lifted her wide sleeves, and the tightly wound that was wrapped around really overflowed a few lines of blood.
"Rue Jiang, you can help me re-bandage it!" Gasping for air, she whispered to Yun Jiang.
"Slave maid will help you bandage," Yun Jiang agreed, and then, she carefully untied the gauze on Lu Nianjin's arm, the further back she untied it, the deeper the bloodstains became, especially when it came to the last layer, it was even more difficult to take. After a day and a night, the gauze and blood scabs were glued together, and she tore them off hard.
only heard a muffled snort, and at this moment, Lu Nianjin's whole face turned white in pain.
"Girl, bear with me!" Yun Jiang dipped a handkerchief in medicinal wine to help her clean her wounds, and after cleaning the wounds, she sprinkled the medicine powder to stop bleeding......
When the bandaging was finally completed, both of them breathed a long sigh of relief.
Yun Jiang looked at Lu Nianjin distressedly, a little dissatisfied, "The girl is too good to the Huang family!" "It's so good that I don't even care about my own body.
Lu Nianjin listened to her accusation and smiled slightly, "Uncle Huang's injury was originally caused by me, and I naturally have to help him if I can help him!" ”
"Then you have to take care of your body!" Rue Jiang is still dissatisfied.
Lu Nianjin also knew that she was for her own good, so she could only be patient, and coaxed her a few words in a good voice, promising that she would definitely put herself first in the future.
Half an hour later, the carriage stopped outside the National Teacher's Mansion.
Because the two of them left the house without permission, they can only go back through the back door now.
"Don't do it yourself for the scar removal cream girl who gave the lord of Shengping, you say how to do it, and the slave will help you make it." On the way back to Luoshenyuan, Yun Jiang seemed to think of something, and rushed to Lu Nianjin's strong request.
In the face of such a Yun Jiang, what could Lu Nianjin say, she could only agree, and compromised at her, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
The two were talking, and before they knew it, they walked to the door of Luo Shen Yuan.
At this time, at the gate of Luoshenyuan, there was a person kneeling, it was Chen Fu who disgusted Lu Nianjin yesterday.
Chen Fu heard the footsteps, looked back, and happened to be facing Lu Nianjin.
Lu Nianjin glanced at him coldly, condescendingly, and said coldly, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Chen Fu's eyes were blue, his face was full of bitterness, as if he had just been pulled out of the coptis water, and said, "If you go back to the crown princess, it is the prince who punished the servants to kneel here and ask you for their guilt." ”
"Plead with me?" When Lu Nianjin heard him say this, he couldn't help sneering, "It's not me who you have abandoned in the first place, what kind of crime do you ask me for!" After saying that, she didn't want to pay any more attention to him, and was about to walk towards the courtyard.
But Chen Fu didn't stop silent, but looked at her back and recalled her words, "Back to the princess's words, the reason why the slave pleads you is because the slave makes you full of disappointment and fear of the word 'husband and wife'. ”
“…… What did you say? Lu Nianjin didn't expect him to say such a thing, she stopped suddenly, turned to look at him, and said with a complicated face, "Who taught you these words!" ”
Chen Fu hesitated for a moment and said, "Back to the princess, it was the slave who came up with it himself, and the slave felt guilty, sorry for the princess, and even more sorry for Huanxi." ”
"The slave learns from the pain, and is willing to swear to the sky, to the ground, to the passing gods, that the slave will change his past mistakes in the future, treat Huanxi well, and never let her be sad again.
"......" Lu Nianjin looked at him fixedly, twisted his eyebrows, and said with a straight face, "What you said is true?" ”
"The slave doesn't dare to deceive the crown princess!" Chen Fu said, kowtowing three times on the ground.
"I hope you'll do what you say!" Lu Nianjin wanted Huanxi to spend the last period of her life well, even if she knew that Chen Fu's intentions were not pure, she still had to endure the nausea and talk nonsense with him here.
"The minions will do it!"
"Let's go back!" She didn't bother to see him again, so she scolded him coldly, then turned around and continued to walk towards the main room.
What she didn't expect was that as soon as she entered the main room, she saw a figure she didn't want to see.
He was standing by the window, standing tall with his hands in his hands, and it was obvious that he had heard the conversation between her and Chen Fu just now, and he had seen her attitude.
"Prince......" she exclaimed almost silently with a hint of bitterness at the corner of her mouth.
Xiao Xun heard the sound and turned to look at her, "The crown princess is back?" ”
Lu Nianjin nodded, paused, and asked again, "Is there something wrong with the prince looking for me?" ”
