Chapter Ninety-Eight: Entering the Game
Emperor Jiakang had no intention of returning to the palace, but only instructed the queen to take good care of the fetus, and the hospital was on call all day to ensure that the queen's mother and son were safe.
The four concubines were not allowed to return to the palace, and they all had a bitter summer problem overnight, and the princes from all walks of life served the sick, and those who asked for medical advice sent people back to Beijing to ask for medical treatment, and the palace was lively for a while.
Tong Qingyan and other subordinate daughters are completely idle, they don't have to ask for peace every day, they have a lot of time to gather and have fun, these days, Tong Qingyan has met and made many friends.
Song Zhan took the time to take Tong Qingyan around every day, and his love for his future wife gradually became a beautiful talk, and many people envied Tong Qingyan's good life, but they didn't dare to say anything too ugly, after all, he couldn't compare to a first-class county lord, not to mention that in addition to the prince standing behind the county lord, there was also Jiakangdi.
"Sister Qingyan, this ice bowl is so delicious, does it have a name?"
Su Miao Randong and the others held a white jade bowl one by one, and the white jade spoons they ate one after another, they couldn't stop, Su Miao also knew that he would say a few words to the master's family, and the others who came to eat and drink couldn't take care of it at this time.
Liu Qin'er came from an extraordinary background, and she also thought that she didn't have anything to eat to impress her, because she had gathered and played in the past few days, and when it was time to eat snacks, Su Miao and Ran Dong found an excuse to follow Tong Qingyan back to the yard, and they were curious to follow along.
Liu Qin'er has always been the leader of the nobles in Beijing, as soon as she moved, the others followed, and the ladies from the poor family led by Jiang Jingrou couldn't play with them, even if they were curious, they were embarrassed to follow, otherwise they couldn't sit down at all.
Tong Qingyan put down the bowl in her hand, tucked the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled softly.
"It's called poplar branch nectar."
Girls, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to react to for a while, or Ran Dong is the most direct, what to think of and say.
"I said that you are too bold, and an ice bowl dares to have anything to do with Guanyin Niangniang! If this gets out, you're going to be criticized again. ”
Ran Dong's words represent everyone's voices, although Su Yao also means this, but after eating a lot of things from Tong Qingyan for so many days, he always subconsciously wants to protect her.
"Sister Dong is really, without asking Sister Qingyan about the meaning behind this, she will make up her mind. If you want me to say, there is nothing wrong with this poplar branch nectar, how auspicious it is. ”
"The net bottle in the hands of Guanyin Niangniang is filled with nectar, and the nectar is sprinkled with willow branches to purify all living beings, what a beautiful picture. But how many people in this world can be crossed by Guanyin? Is that you? Is it me? No, the Buddha said that all living beings are suffering, and the only way to cross is to cross themselves. I made this ice bowl today, everyone ate happily, and temporarily forgot all the troubles of their bodies, wasn't it crossed? Then this ice bowl is called poplar branch nectar, what's wrong? ”
The women looked at the empty white jade bowl, and then at Tong Qingyan, who was complacent, and had no words to refute, obviously feeling that something was wrong, but they couldn't think of what to say.
In the silent atmosphere, Liu Qin'er suddenly pursed her lips and smiled.
"The county lord's ability to bluff people really doesn't dare to underestimate, you see that they all look convincing, and I'm not afraid that they will go back and parrot your crooked reasoning, and you will have no good fruit to eat at that time."
Tong Qingyan squeezed her eyes at Liu Qin'er, and her bright smile couldn't stop.
"I didn't say anything, those who had that thought were too careful, but they couldn't rely on me."
Ran Dong looked at Tong Qingyan, who was smiling brightly, and then looked at Liu Qin'er, who was helpless and admired, and was anxious.
"What kind of dumb riddle are you two playing? I'm in a hurry, hurry up, Liu Qin'er, what did she bluff? ! ”
Liu Qin'er had an indescribable expression on her face, Su Miao's eyes turned slightly to figure it out, and seeing that Ran Dong's urgency was about to explode, she hurriedly spoke out to solve her doubts.
"According to Sister Qingyan, this ice bowl is like the Yangzhi manna in Guanyin's hand that has passed us over, so isn't she the ......one who makes the ice bowl?"
At the end of the point, Su Miao looked at Ran Dong with a smile, and the words were all said for this, Ran Dong was really stupid if he didn't understand it.
"Okay, you, take advantage of all of us!"
"Huh! To make it clear, I didn't say anything, you guys are too careful, besides, I cheekily got so many ingredients to make poplar branch nectar, you eat more than me, who takes advantage of whom? ”
For a while, the girls' brisk laughter floated out of the yard, and Wen Qi, who was patrolling the surrounding area, raised her hand to wipe the sweat on the tip of her nose and pouted.
If it weren't for Liu Qin'er and these people, they would have been able to go in and eat snacks now, but now they are happy, patrolling outside on a hot day to bask in the sun.
Wen Qi is not the only one who has opinions, but Song Zhan, who has sent Su Yu to the courtyard to listen to the news three or four times, can't bear it anymore.
I spent only a short time alone with Tong Qingyan every day, and today I was told that I had no time to receive myself, so I could only watch Jia Kangdi on Penglai Island to review and review the folds, which was really boring.
Liu Qin'er and the others waited until dinner time, and then went back with the remaining Yangzhi nectar, and after eating good things, they had to bring them back to honor their father and mother to be called filial piety, and they naturally did not consider the mood of Song Zhansu Yu and Wen Qi.
The last bowl of Yangzhi nectar, Tong Qingyan plans to personally serve it to Tong Huaiyuan, these days the princes are serving the sick posture there, as a subordinate daughter, should also learn filial piety so that people will not be criticized.
The daily round-trip route is fixed, Tong Qingyan just took Feicui to the avenue connecting the inner and outer courtyards, a maid stumbled out of the side of the path, ran forward without paying attention to Tong Qingyan and the two, seeing that they were about to collide, Feicui decisively took Tong Qingyan and hugged Tong Qingyan in a circle.
Tong Qingyan instinctively protected the food box, and almost the moment she stood firm, she opened the food box to check the poplar branch manna inside.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's not spilled."
After confirming the safety of Yang Zhimang, he looked at the maid who fell to the ground.
"Which maid are you, why are you so reckless?"
The maid didn't dare to raise her head, and knelt down directly.
"The slave maid is next to Miss Jiang of the Qingguo Mansion, my young lady suddenly has a stomachache and rolls on the ground, the slave and maid are about to go to the front yard to report to the Duchess of the country, and they collided with the nobles, please forgive me."
As soon as she heard that it was the person next to Jiang Jingrou, Tong Qingyan instinctively wanted to raise her feet and leave, but after thinking about it, she asked more.
"Your young lady has a bad stomach?"
"Maybe it's that the slave doesn't know how to use medicine, but the young lady is holding her stomach and screaming in pain."
Tong Qingyan thought about it, this maid went to find the Duchess of the Kingdom, and then went to ask the emperor to give the imperial doctor down, Jiang Jingrou was afraid that she would be hurt to death.
In view of the relationship between the Qingguo Mansion and the concubine, Tong Qingyan felt that if she helped out once, she would be able to remember it if she wanted to come to the concubine, which would be of some slight benefit to herself and Song Zhan.
After thinking clearly, Tong Qingyan immediately turned to Feicui and ordered.
"You immediately go to the prince and ask him to find a doctor." Turning to look at the servant girl who was still kneeling on the ground, "You can take me over and see if I can help you." ”
"County Lord......"
Feicui was a little uneasy, and glanced at the grateful maid again.
"I saw this person in front of Jiang Jingrou, don't worry about going to find Shizi, you don't have to worry about my safety."
Tong Qingyan is not really stupid Bai Tian, in addition to protecting her Feiyan Feicui on the surface, since Feiyan was injured on Chinese New Year's Eve, Song Zhan secretly arranged two more people to protect herself, so now she dares to let Feicui go to Song Zhan for help.
Feicui seemed to remember the person who secretly protected Tong Qingyan, and nodded.
"The slave and maid will go now, the county lord is careful in everything, don't be reckless."
"Hmm."
Tong Qingyan carried the food box and followed the footsteps of the maid and hurried down the path to the door of a hut, so that there were many places in the small house for people to temporarily rest and change clothes, shoes and socks, and from a distance, Jiang Jingrou was seen sitting on the ground by the door.
