Chapter Twenty-Four: Harmony (I)
After drinking the medicine, Mu Yuyan woke up at midnight.
Gusu stayed up for a day and a night of medicine, and lasted another day, and after dinner, he couldn't hold it anymore, so he went back to the room and fell asleep, no, he could still faintly hear the snoring sound now.
Ning Luoge returned to Yonghetang, and somehow, there were more and more people who were sick recently, and they all had no symptoms, which made Ning Luoge have a headache.
Lu Min was washing the horse in the stable at this time, saying that this horse was the same as a human being, and it had to be kept clean at all times.
But when you bathe the horses in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of being frozen?
Therefore, the heavy responsibility of taking care of Mu Yuyan fell on Ye Ruotang, but Ye Ruotang was still happy to accept this errand.
Sitting at the head of the bed, staring intently at the man, because of the medicine, the lips that were still purple during the day have now returned to normal, only a little pale. Above the bridge of the tall nose are a pair of closed eyes, these eyelashes are longer than a woman's, Ye Ruotang couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
How could there be such a good-looking man in this world?
Ye Ruotang sighed again and again with his head on the side, Xu is sighing was a little louder, the man moved slightly, and slowly opened his eyes after a while.
Seeing Ye Ruotang sitting in front of him, he didn't say anything else, but just stretched out his hand and pointed to the water on the table, Ye Ruotang understood and immediately sent it to him.
Mu Yuyan seemed to see a life-saving straw, sat up, drank it with a grunt, and spilled his clothes everywhere.
"You drink slowly" Ye Ruotang was a little distressed when he saw him like this.
"Also"
Ye Ruotang shook the teapot, there was no water, and then turned his head to the person on the bed and said, "No, you have to wait, I'll boil it"
Mu Yuyan lay down weakly and nodded.
The kitchen was at the back of this room, and there was just hot water on one stove, and medicine was still hot on the other, so Ye Ruotang simply took it over.
Mu Yuyan sat up again when he saw it, Ye Ruotang poured a glass of water and handed it over, "Be careful of scalding"
After drinking several glasses in a row, Mu Yuyan felt less uncomfortable than just now.
A pair of dark eyes with a bit of scrutiny: "Why are you here?" β
"Follow You"
"Why are you following me?"
"Because you're my god."
β..........β
Mu Yuyan felt that talking to her was insulting to her IQ, so she gave up.
"Let's drink the medicine first," Ye Ruotang handed over the medicine.
This time, Mu Yuyan reached out to pick it up, the girl knew what he was worried about, pinched her nose and took a sip of medicine, "Don't worry, there is no poison in this medicine, besides, this is something that Gusu stayed up for a day and a night."
Mu Yuyan took it over and drank the medicine in one go, bitter and unbearable.
The girl took out a piece of candy and handed it to him, "No, you won't be bitter if you eat it."
The man wanted to refuse, but before he could say the words of refusal, his hand had already reached out, and he was taken aback by such an act.
The sugar is soft and glutinous, and there is a fragrance of corn.
"What is this? Why have I never eaten it? β
"This is called candy corn" is Ye Ruotang's favorite.
"Can corn be made into sugar?"
"Yes, we have not only candy corn, but also burgers, steaks, and delicious Coke when summer comes."
As soon as Ye Ruotang thought of this, his still smiling face instantly drooped, he hadn't eaten them for a long time, and he didn't know if there would be a chance in the future.
"Burger, steak, coke?" Mu Yuyan frowned and looked at the girl with some doubts.
"If I have a chance in the future, I'll take you to eat, or make it for you."
As soon as Ye Ruotang finished speaking, he heard a gurgling sound, and Mu Yuyan coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment.
Ye Ruotang covered his mouth and smiled softly, "Are you hungry?" β
"Hmm"
"I'll cook you a bowl of noodles for this big night."
"Good"
"Then you wait here for me," Ye Ruotang jumped to the kitchen.
If you want to talk about this noodles, she is quite experienced, after all, she is alone all the year round, and when she doesn't want to cook, she will choose simple pasta to fill her stomach.
Bring water to a boil, then add the noodles. Cook until bubbling, turn off the heat and prepare the exclusive sauce.
Omelette, put the egg on the noodles, the next step is the most soulful step of the whole bowl of noodles, sprinkle with chopped green onions, a bowl of steaming, fragrant noodles is ready.
Ye Ruotang tilted his head and watched the man eat noodles, and suddenly had a feeling of a little daughter-in-law.
Mu Yuyan, who hadn't eaten for two days and one night, was already hungry with his chest against his back, and this noodle was indeed delicious, better than all the noodles he had ever eaten.
After drinking the last mouthful of soup, a person stood coldly at the door, and Ye Ruotang was so frightened that he almost didn't hold the bowl.
"What are you doing?"
Lu Min leaned against the door frame, "I smell the fragrance, I'm hungry too"
"There is noodles in the kitchen, go down by yourself"
Lu Min saw that there was nothing wrong with him, so he lowered his head and prepared to leave, but he didn't want Mu Yuyan to whisper, "I........ I'm not full yet."
When Lu Min heard that there was hope, he looked at the girl with a smiling face.
Ye Ruotang sneered and walked straight towards the kitchen.
"General, are you alright?" Lu Min walked to the bed and asked with some concern.
"It's okay"
"It's okay, it scared the hell out of me"
β..........β
After the two said a few words, Ye Ruotang walked in with his face.
One on the left, one on the right, eating her noodles deliciously.
Ye Ruotang smiled contentedly, but this smile was like a person.
************
Early in the morning, the eldest prince Mu Lingfeng hurriedly entered the palace and walked towards Qinyang Palace.
When she arrived, Concubine De had just gotten up, and the palace maid Huan'er was grooming her.
"Feng'er, why are you so flustered?"
"You all go down first" After Mu Lingfeng dismissed the palace people, he entered the inner room, "Mother, my uncle has been arrested"
"What?" The jade comb in Concubine De's hand fell in response and shattered into two, "How come?" Didn't you already let your uncle stop it? β
Mu Lingfeng pursed his lips and let out a long sigh.
Concubine De seemed to know what was wrong, and held the man's hand tightly, "You guys........... It's really confusing."
"Mother, what can I do if the matter has come to this point, if my uncle confesses me, then I am afraid that the position of the prince will not be guaranteed."
Concubine De tried her best to stabilize her mind, "There is still a turning point in this matter"
"What can the mother do?" When the man heard this, his expression changed.
"Tanuki for the prince, you rush to Linzhou first............" Concubine De said something in Mu Lingfeng's ear, Mu Lingfeng's expression gradually eased, "The mother concubine is very good, I'll go now"
After Mu Lingfeng left, Concubine De called Huan'er, saying that she had heard that Li's Su embroidery was excellent, and she needed her guidance on the peony picture she had embroidered recently.
Huan'er leaned over slightly and walked out of the palace gate.
Yefu
Li has always felt a little headache in recent days, and he only ate a few bites of breakfast hastily, and then went back to his room to lie down.
Ye Zhinan found a doctor to check the pulse of the Li family, and the doctor said that it was no big deal, maybe he was too tired in the past few days, and he prescribed a few patches of soothing medicine and left.
The doctor walked on the front foot, and the palace maid Huan'er next to Concubine De came on the back foot.
Li quickly got up, straightened his clothes, and invited Huan'er in.
"I don't know what Concubine De commands?"
"Mrs. Ye, Concubine De heard that you are very good at embroidery, and I specially ask you to go to the palace for some guidance."
"Ouch, how dare you do this, Concubine De just ask"
"Mrs. Ye will pack up and follow me into the palace."
"Okay, Nan'er, you can come with me too"
Huan'er grabbed in front of Ye Zhinan and said, "Mrs. Ye, Niangniang only said to let you enter the palace alone."
Li Shi rolled his eyes, and understood the meaning, so he said to Ye Zhinan, "Nan'er, prepare some Ye Er cakes and eat them for my mother."
"Good"
"Mrs. Ye, please come with me"
Qinyang Palace
"Niangniang, Mrs. Ye is here"
"Come in, please"
As soon as Li entered the hall, he saw a green jade table with embroidery threads piled up randomly, and Concubine De had a sad face.
"Mrs. Ye, you are here, can you teach me how to embroider this Su embroidery?"
As soon as he talked about this Su embroidery, one of Li's faces was full of pride, and he picked up the embroidered handkerchief on the table and looked at it, "Niangniang, you are wrong with this needle"
"So what?"
"It should be like this........." said Lee, and the Li family demonstrated.
"You guys should retreat first," Concubine De dismissed the palace people.
After the palace people went out, Li put down the embroidered handkerchief in his hand and asked, "I don't know what Concubine De called the women into the palace?" β
The Li family is not stupid, and he will not be naΓ―ve to think that once the favorite concubine summoned him into the palace for the sake of Su Xiu.
A strange light flashed in Concubine De's eyes, "Sit down"
"Concubine Shede"
"There's a letter here," Concubine De took out a letter from under Jinpa and handed it to Li, "and asked Mrs. Ye to forward it on her behalf."
Li took the letter and put it in his sleeve, "Concubine De Niangniang called me, I'm afraid it's not just for a letter" Li thought to himself, if it was just for a letter, he could just let Huan'er bring it over, and there was no need to call himself to the palace.
"Mrs. Ye is really a smart person, Nanju recently intends to make peace with Nanxun, the princess is delicate and the emperor loves her very much, and she is reluctant to let the princess go to the land of Nanban, if the daughter of the Ye family can go to the second grade, she can be promoted to the second grade, and she is the right waiter" Concubine De got straight to the point, and she was too lazy to beat around the bush.
Li Shi was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was promoted?
If you think about it again, her daughter will have to wait until next year to reach her, and besides, she is such a precious daughter, and she is reluctant to marry into a wild land.
"Concubine De, Nan'er won't be in time until next year, this ............"
"Isn't there still an eldest lady in Ye Mansion, if I'm not mistaken, I'll be in time for two days."
Li slapped his thigh suddenly, yes, Ye Mansion and Ye Ruotang "It's just Concubine De Niangniang, there is a Taiwei here, the Zuo Shilang family, how did this harmony fall on our heads?" β
Concubine De smiled, "The emperor loves me the most in this harem, as long as I say it, do you think the emperor can still not listen?" β
Li Shi thought about it, but it was such a truth, and his face could no longer hide his happiness, "That Concubine De Niangniang, the folk woman will go back first"
