Chapter Twenty-Six: Late Night Reflections
"Doctor Huai, how is it?"
In the Bamboo Pavilion at night, Huai Zishi frowned and gave Liu Zhilan a pulse, and Mo Yunchen sat on the edge of the bed next to him, his face slightly tired.
"Alas......" withdrew his hand, Huai Zishi looked like he had a headache, "The second lady was only better from her illness before, but she was injured again, and she has to recuperate for a month." What happened to the second lady, why did the second lady get hurt like this?" What's going on with this willow branch orchid? Legend has it that the lord of the treacherous mist is the most decisive in killing, but how can he see this person who has been making people pretend to be sick and weak all day long? Alas...... The rumors in the rivers and lakes are not credible! Pity him, the jade-faced poisonous emperor will protect such a white lotus in the future, and spread it out and throw the dead.
Seeing that Huai Zishi was sad, Mo Yunchen stared at Liu Zhilan, and his good-looking eyes were full of disbelief. Fang Cai Liu Zhilan is fine, how did she become a sick seedling in the mouth of the imperial doctor?
Seeing that Mo Yunchen doubted herself, Liu Zhilan coughed symbolically a few times, and Qiqin, who was standing beside her, saw it and hurriedly brought her a cup of hot water, "Girl, drink some hot soup to slow down." After speaking, looking at Liu Zhilan's small sip, her eyes couldn't help but moisten, "The master is also ruthless, how can he be so ruthless indiscriminately." There are also the three young ladies and Ming Xiaoniang, all of them are black-hearted, how long have our girls been back home, and they actually hurt the girls like this, don't they see that our girls are concubines, for fear of threatening their status......!
"Okay," Liu Zhilan interrupted the qin, frowning slightly, "Don't talk about your family behind your back." The loss is Zhuxi Pavilion, if you let people listen outside, be careful that my father twists your tongue. ”
Seeing that the master was displeased, Qiqin hurriedly covered her mouth. Seeing her like this, Liu Zhilan smiled at the corner of her lips again, raised her hand and stretched out a finger to tap Qiqin's forehead, "You, you, your mouth is not tight like this." Okay, let's go see if Zhencha's supper is ready, I'm starving. ”
"Yes. Juqin bowed and turned around and went downstairs, and quietly glanced at Huai Zishi before leaving. The imperial doctors in the palace are really a group of quacks, and they can't even see the fake pulse that Zhencha hurriedly made when he secretly checked Liu Zhilan's pulse in the hall.
He and Mo Yunchen are also outsiders, so why aren't they afraid of listening to it? Huai Zishi raised his eyebrows, this play is ...... If he was just an ordinary imperial doctor, and if he couldn't tell this pulse, it is estimated that he would have been deceived by this master and servant. Let's not talk about Mo Yunchen, acting in front of him, do you want to spread this matter through his mouth? Huai Zishi thought about it, and thought of not being dusty, so he came according to Liu Zhilan's thoughts, "Second Miss, the prescription official will put it on that table, and when your subordinates come in a while, just ask them to catch the medicine according to the prescription." ”
"So, thank you Doctor Huai. I'm sorry to bother you so late. Liu Zhilan apologized to Huai Zishi, Huai Zishi waved his hand, held the disgust in his eyes, and said gently: "It's okay, the girl's body is important." With that, he got up and took his leave, "It's not too early." Lord Mo, the lower official still wants to report the second lady's illness to Liu Weigong, so he won't stay much. ”
"Doctor Huai, go slowly. Mo Yunchen got up and sent Imperial Physician Huai downstairs, he was smiling, Imperial Physician Huai was about to walk to the bamboo forest when he was stopped by him, "Imperial Physician Huai." ”
Huai Zishi paused, a smile appeared on his lips for a moment, and he turned around and disappeared. He tilted his head slightly to look at Mo Yunchen, "Is there anything else to do?"
"Imperial Doctor Huai, although you have only been in the medical hospital for more than two years, on weekdays, any noble family in the imperial capital is willing to look for you when he is sick, is what this king said right?" Mo Yunchen took out a black paper fan from his sleeve, and habitually unfolded it. I had no choice but to give up in the middle of the night.
"The prince has an overreputation, and the official medical skills are not perfect, and he only dares to sacrifice ugliness when the nobles are sick and have a small disaster. Huai Zishi waved his hand and shook his head humbly.
"Doctor Huai, don't be presumptuous. Mo Yunchen looked at him gently, "Doctor Huai's medical skills are outstanding, but it's a pity that the pearl is covered with dust." This king is willing to give you a chance to be promoted to the imperial doctor, do you want it?"
Imperial Doctor? Such a small broken official is not uncommon. Huai Zishi sneered in his heart, but he hurriedly said excitedly to Mo Yunchen on his face: "I don't know what the prince wants to do?"
"This king doesn't want you to do anything difficult. Mo Yunchen's folding fan tapped on the palm of his left hand, "Tomorrow, the Xinjiao Palace, you should ask Imperial Doctor Huai to go to see the disease, you just need to reveal some of today's Liufu affairs." Mo Yunchen then added: "Just follow what Miss Liu Er and her maid in the house said." ”
"This ......" Huai Zishi pretended to be embarrassed, and Mo Yunchen was not in a hurry, just looking at him there. Feeling that the fire was coming, Huai Zishi's eyes widened as if he had made up his mind, and he opened his mouth to confirm to Mo Yunchen, "Lord, tomorrow the Xinjiao Wangfu can really invite the next official over?"
"This king is the king of Yixi, what do you do when you have nothing to do?" Mo Yunchen smiled and turned back to the building, "As long as you do what this king says, this king will ensure that you will get the emperor's blue eyes." ”
"Yes, congratulations to the prince. "Tut-tut, poor that Xinjiao Wangfu, I don't know which unlucky guy will be selected to get sick in vain. Huai Zishi stopped saluting after Mo Yunchen left, he shook his head, and suddenly remembered that he had to deal with Liu Zhengqian, and he couldn't help but have another headache. He wanted to steal the dust, but he didn't think that he would be involved in the officialdom struggle. Alas...... It's still good to have rivers and lakes, there are so many twists and turns, everything is based on force, and he can kill whoever he wants. It's like now, so. Alas......
"You asked him to spread the news of Liufu?" As soon as Mo Yunchen went upstairs, Liu Zhilan asked him: "Is the Huaizi world reliable?" For some reason, this Huaizi Shi always gave her a strange feeling that she couldn't say.
"He's just a messenger. Mo Yunchen sat on the side of Liu Zhilan's bed. At this time, Liu Zhilan's coat had faded, and only the wide snow-white middle clothes were left on her slender body. Liu Zhilan sat on the couch, leaning on a soft pillow, and a few strands of black hair hung down on the "Tianqin Calendar" in her hand. Mo Yunchen saw that she looked so carefully, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he reached out and snatched the book in her hand, "It's not too early, be careful to see your eyes bad." In the future, when he is blind, how can he help this king do things? Besides, how can anyone who is sick read tiredly?"
"Lord Lao bothered. Liu Zhilan was speechless in her heart, she leaned idly on the bed frame, "Who is the person who the prince really wants to speak for us?"
"Guess what?" Mo Yunchen moved towards Liu Zhilan, trying to scratch her nose with his fingers but resisted.
"Hmm......" Liu Zhilan put her hand lightly on her chin with half a fist, thinking back to the nobles of the imperial capital she had seen in her previous life, and then raised her head and said firmly: "Xinji Wangfu Yuanlai." ”
"Oh, do you know the name of the concubine of the palace of Xinjiao. Mo Yunchen was surprised in his heart, and moved closer to her again, "How do you know it's him?"
"Hmph!" Speaking of Yuan Lai, Liu Zhilan was angry. King Xinjiao is one of the four kings with different surnames in Tianqin, and he has a group of wives and concubines and countless children. Mrs. Xinjiao Wang was not angry, and only gave birth to a useless sister-in-law like Yuan Lai, who loved sleeping flowers and willows. Although Yuan Lai is brilliant, he is used to please the girls in the flower street, and he is not interested in the career at all. If it's just these deeds, it's just that, and a stinky mouth can talk more than the eight women. In her previous life, she stuck to Yu Jinmo, and Yuan Lai passed on a lot of her words, and even said that she had already had a head and end with Yu Jinmo, and she was so angry that she beat him and lay on the bed for more than two months, and he only slightly converged, and it was really just a little convergence!
"In the entire imperial capital, he is the only one who is the most brazen and likes to spew feces with his mouth. What came out of his mouth could spread throughout the imperial capital in a matter of moments. Although he has said a lot of stupid things in the past few days, others don't believe it, but today's events, many nobles in the imperial capital have seen it, and the people in the imperial capital can't believe it. And even if the rumors are rampant, my father doesn't dare to settle accounts with him. Although my father is the Duke of Weiguo and the general of the protector of the country, Liufu is also an important minister of the sixth generation of Tianqin. But no matter how high the status is, after all, it is not as good as the only concubine of King Hara Nashin. "You must know that in her previous life, she beat Yuan Lai, and Liu Zhengqian actually wanted to lock her up for half a year! If it weren't for Yu Jinmo's mediation, I'm afraid she would have suffocated to death for half a year!
"You know him very well. Mo Yunchen stared at Liu Zhilan with complicated eyes, this woman should not be underestimated.
"If the little girl is not prepared, I am afraid that she will be squeezed by the open and secret battles in this imperial capital for a day after returning here, and there will be no bones left. Liu Zhilan noticed the change in Mo Yunchen's eyes, so she changed the topic and said: "Now that Imperial Doctor Huai is talking to my father about me, the prince is not worried that he will tell me about your affairs with me?"
"Since he promised to do things for the king, he should know what to say, what to say, and what not to say. Mo Yunchen saw that Liu Zhilan changed the topic, and he didn't dwell on it. Just thinking about more and more things he didn't know about her, his heart was somehow a little blocked. He suddenly raised his hand and pinched Liu Zhilan's chin, Liu Zhilan was stunned, her whole body seemed to be nailed to the couch, and she didn't dare to move, "What are you doing?"
"......" Mo Yunchen looked at Liu Zhilan's defensive eyes thrown at him, feeling that she was about to blow up. He looked at her for a long time before letting go of her chin, got up and walked to the window and jumped down, "You have a good rest, you are still a patient." This king is gone, and he will come to you when he is free. ”
"This person, what's wrong tonight?" Liu Zhilan looked at the window with a strange expression, and after a while, she picked up the "Tianqin Calendar" that Mo Yunchen took away and put it on the side of the couch and continued to look at it. But before he could see it for long, Zhencha and Qiqin came up with supper.
"Girl, supper is coming. Hey, Lord Mo is gone?" Zhencha put the supper on the table, and Qiqin went to the couch to help Liu Zhilan get up. Zhencha saw that only Liu Zhilan was left in the house, so he asked casually.
"Well, he's on the front foot, and you're on the back foot. Liu Zhilan sat on the stool, picked up the celadon spoon and scooped the porridge little by little.
"It's okay to go, save disturbing our girl's rest. Qi Qin said happily.
When Liu Zhilan heard this, she smiled suddenly, but she didn't say a word. The upbringing in the palace that she cultivated in her previous life, now she can eat without talking without talking.
"Lord Mo didn't do anything to you, why did you hate him so much?"
"Hmph, who made me hold a grudge!"
“......”
The laughter from upstairs spread downstairs, and Mo Yunchen stood downstairs looking up against the cold, his expression hidden in the darkness around him. He stayed where he was for a while, and it wasn't until Liu Zhilan finished eating supper and Qi Qinzhen Tea went downstairs with utensils that he turned around and walked into the bamboo forest......
