Fifty-five, the book of medicine
Summer came quickly, the whole air was steaming, there was not a trace of wind, and it seemed hotter and hotter.
Ning Yan had to admire the wisdom of these people, in addition to taking ice from the ice cellar, there was also an impeller to pull out the wind and cool utensils, just like an artificial fan. The garden is full of trees, and the temperature has dropped a lot.
Ning Yan has been hiding in the small pavilion in the lake in the garden for the past few days, and the lotus flowers in the pond are blooming very well. The little fish are swimming gracefully, so happy. Ning Yan didn't think that this summer was so difficult, but it was a little leisurely. Ning Yan held the book, looked at it word by word, and threw some small snacks for the fish to eat from time to time.
Since she recovered from beating her eyes and returned to the Zheng family, life has been much better, except for Zheng Nangong who arranged two maids, she basically has Zheng Wan. The eldest lady often sends people to bring some supplements. It's just that Zheng Nangong didn't allow her to go to Lu Tingxuan again, and now she can only read medical books to learn by herself, fortunately, the Zheng family's collection of books is also ranked first in Daqin, and she still goes to her own old doctor from time to time to take some medicinal materials to study, Ning Yan himself didn't expect that he still has talent in this area, and it is quite fun to learn, and even secretly planted some commonly used medicinal herbs in the courtyard.
"Fourth sister. So you're here. Zheng Wan appeared in the pavilion dressed in light cyan clothes. Zheng Wan's hair was only tied with a hairband, draped casually, and her face lined with inky hair became more and more white. Zheng Wan is becoming more and more beautiful, and her gestures are a little touching. In a few years, the title of the first beauty in Kyoto will fall on her head.
Ning Yan hurriedly put down the book, got up and greeted him, "Sister." How did you get here. ”
"I'll come and see you, sit down, you and my sister don't have to be so formal." Qiu Qi took out two bowls of chilled mung bean soup from the food box on the side, one bowl in front of Zheng Wan and the other bowl in front of Zheng Ling.
"Thank you, sister." Ning Yan thanked him obediently.
"Sister doesn't have to be so polite. It's really hot on this day, and this mung bean soup can be boiled up early in the morning. Zheng Wan lazily held her cheeks. Can medicated baths be useful these days? ”
"It worked, I'm much better. Sister don't worry. Thanks to my sister's herbs. ”
"It's just that you are entrusted by others, your body is weak, so it is good to be able to recuperate. This time my sister is so bad for such a big crime, which is really distressing. It's okay now. ”
"By the grace of Your Majesty."
"Fourth sister, are you interested in medical skills now?" Zheng Wan glanced at the one that was put aside, picked it up and looked at it.
Ning Yan nodded shyly, "It's just a blind look." My sister has been weak since she was a child, and she drank too much medicine, and she was about to become a medicine jar. As soon as I got sick, I waited for someone else to come, and I thought that it would be better to learn something simple by myself, and if there was something urgent, it would be better to feel at ease. ”
"My sister has a point. Stand down, all of you. I had some personal talk with my sister. ”
"No." Several of the maids exited the pavilion.
Zheng Wan stood up and walked to the railing, "This fish is really comfortable, but it lives more freely than a human." ”
"If a person wants only peace and well-being, he may be as comfortable as a fish."
"Peace and well-being." Zheng Wan chuckled, "You and I were born in an official family, and some ordinary people can easily get it, and we may have to go through a lot of hardships." ”
"It's not always as expected. Why get stuck in sorrow? Maybe what they wanted, you already have. ”
Zheng Wan looked at Zheng Ling with a smile. "Some words are easier said than done. But who can empathize. Like this fish, it may not feel at ease. That's what we think. ”
"Let go of obsession, maybe many things will be much simpler." Ning Yan also looked at Zheng Wan.
Zheng Wan turned her head to look at the fish in the pond. "The day before yesterday, I returned from Yundeguan and met Lu Gongzi."
Ning Yan was in order, Xu was to show the Zheng family's apparent dissatisfaction with the Lu family, and the two families were no longer in contact. Zheng Wan mentioned him, what does this mean?
"Really?" Ning Yan held the bowl and completely hid his expression.
"Sister, don't you want to know what I said to Lu Gongzi?"
"My sister will say it if she wants to. I don't want to say why I want to force it. ”
"Anyway, Lu Gongzi also took care of you for a month, sister, did you forget?"
"I, I didn't. I'm just, I'll remember his kindness. Ning Yan put the bowl down and looked at Zheng Wan fixedly, "What does my sister want to say?" ”
Zheng Wan patted Zheng Ling's hand, "Sister doesn't have to be so nervous. With a gentle smile, he pulled out a booklet from his bosom. This is what Lu Gongzi asked me to transfer to you. He is afraid that it is not easy for you to study medicine, and you have no guidance from others. Don't mistake your talent, I specially compiled a book list, from simple to difficult, medicinal materials are also common and usable, and they can be bought in every medical hall in the capital. ”
Ning Yan took the book and flipped through it casually, the content inside was detailed. "Master Lu, if you give me this thing, will it cause him trouble?" His Majesty deliberately concealed it from her, and at the beginning he only said that she was weak and drank some tonics, so as not to be able to bear the emperor's grace, so she could only pretend that she didn't know anything. I don't know if I'm taking her for a fool. Her father did not allow her to associate with the Lu family anymore, although she didn't know who had cured the poison, but if she was Zheng Wan, she would definitely not take it out herself, and passing Lu Tingxuan was the least suspicious way. So whether Lu Tingxuan developed the antidote or not, he was the one who put it in front of Emperor Qin Wen. If His Majesty knew that she still had contact with Lu Tingxuan, it would always be bad.
"Don't worry, I copied it. The original I burned it. Ning Yan had to admire Zheng Wan's thoughtfulness in her heart.
"Sister Lao is annoying, thank you Lu Gongzi for me." Ning Yan was reading a book, full of joy.
"It's nature. Lu Gongzi is a good person. It's the lady in the family, hey, if it weren't for her, my sister wouldn't have suffered that sin. ”
"It's just an accident, how can you blame Mrs. Lu. Besides, misfortune and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune lurk. Ning Yan shook her head, there will always be someone to do this, and she is just being calculated.
"My sister thinks like this, my sister is ashamed of herself." Zheng Wan gently held Ning Yan's hand.
Ning Yan smiled. Zheng Wan really picked herself cleanly. If it weren't for the fact that I had been by her side for a long time, and there were those vague fragments in my mind, I was afraid that I would really be deceived.
"Fourth sister, then I'll go back first. It doesn't prevent you from reading, you can read a good book here. I asked Qiu Qi to bring some new pastries. Zheng Wan always looks like she is smiling, and she easily makes people feel close.
"There's Sister Lao. My sister walks slowly. Ning Yan got up and watched Zheng Wan leave, and her face, which was still smiling, suddenly lost her smile. You Zheng Wan, your obsession, when can you commit it.
