Chapter 38: Talking too much is a big loss

The card game was in full swing until dusk, and there were dozens of fights. Xia Jinse went down to replace Father-in-law Lu, and Father-in-law Lu was tired and found a little eunuch to top. Emperor Yuanqing seemed to have opened his mind, and since he had Neiying, he finally understood the fight. The happiness of the landlord.

"Win, win!" Emperor Yuanqing laughed.

"The emperor is clever." Gonggong Lu was flying with a fart, standing behind Emperor Yuanqing, looking at the cards, while hinting that the little eunuch who replaced him would play the cards, he was in a happy mood.

The emperor is happy, and he is happy.

Seeing that Lan Beichen had been losing since the fifth, Xia Jinse was a little unbearable. He should have lost a few hundred taels less, right? Dozens of golden melon seeds borrowed from Emperor Yuanqing were lost, and all of them were won by Emperor Yuanqing's cheating.

But Lan Beichen's face still didn't change, as if he didn't lose money.

Until it was almost dark, Xia Jinse couldn't help it: "Your Majesty, the courtiers...... The courtiers are going home. ”

"Oh, when is it?" Only then did Emperor Yuanqing react, it was dark, and he hadn't eaten yet.

"Your Majesty, the time is almost over, and it will be locked in a while." Father-in-law Lu replied.

Emperor Yuanqing put down the card unsatisfied, was in a good mood, and stretched his waist lazily and said, "Okay, Gonggong Lu, send someone to send Miss Xia back." By the way, let the imperial dining room prepare those meals and bring them back to Miss Xia. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Lan Beichen also stood up: "Your Majesty, the minister has also retired." ”

Emperor Yuanqing waved his hand: "Go, remember to come to the palace tomorrow, and I will talk to you about the group of landlords again." ”

Lan Beichen paused, responded, and then walked out of Zichen Hall with Xia Jinse.

The two walked side by side, and they didn't say anything for a while. As the sun set, Xia Jinse sighed a little, he finally passed this day safely, and Emperor Yuanqing was also happy, thinking about it, he shouldn't be sick again, right?

"By the way, remember your medicine in three days, five hundred bottles, don't forget." Lan Beichen suddenly spoke up and reminded her.

"Got it." Xia Jinse frowned slightly, and said, "You also remember the silver, five hundred taels." ”

It's good that she can get a lot of money, and although she lost a little today, she still earns something.

Who knows, Lan Beichen frowned: "What five hundred taels?" It's good that this king didn't let you pay interest, but you still ask this king for silver? ”

When Xia Jinse heard this, he stopped doing it: "I said that I will give you five hundred bottles of healing medicine and one tael of silver, and you have to give me five hundred taels." Even if I lose sixteen golden melon seeds today, it will only be ninety taels, why don't you give me another four hundred? ”

"Why did this king lose today, you don't have any points in your heart?"

Lan Beichen stood still, looked at Xia Jinse, and said meaningfully: "Do you really think that this king will lose forty-seven times in a row, losing more than ninety golden melon seeds and more than four hundred taels of silver?" ”

"If it weren't for cooperating with you and making the emperor happy, the king wouldn't have any pants to let the emperor lose today, do you believe it?"

Xia Jinse's face was black.

So ruthless? This man has been deliberately losing!

Also, looking at Lan Beichen's previous plays, he is at ease, and he can be called in control of the overall situation, if it is not the first time he plays, Xia Jinse will believe it, which shows how powerful this man is. Later, he lost more than 40 in a row, and it was indeed he who let Emperor Yuanqing.

"But you can't count me alone, how can I have so much money?" Xia Jinse's voice became quieter, and he had no confidence to speak.

"Okay, this king doesn't ask you for money, and the debt you owe will be paid with healing medicine. Remember to send it to the palace in three days, don't delay. ”

"Oh." Xia Jin's repentant intestines are green, and he already knows what kind of mouth he has, and he has lost a lot.

After leaving the palace gate and getting into the carriage, Xia Jinse finally went home with Mu Xiang.

Originally, I thought that Xia Yanxiu and the Zhao family were going to trouble her again, saying that she was coming back late, but no one paid attention to her. After returning to Begonia Garden, Xia Jinse listened to Aunt Yao, and learned that Xia Yanxiu went to the third uncle Xia Yanpeng's side, because Xia Yulan fell into the water, and he hadn't come back for the time being.

As for the Zhao family, of course, she was accompanying Xia Ruxue in the Wind Lotus Garden, because today she was praised by the queen's mother.

Xia Ruxue was personally sent back by the eldest prince Lan Jingcheng, and she was carefully taken care of and cared for along the way, and the Zhao family remembered it in her eyes, as if the whole person was floating.

"Ruxue, the eldest prince seems to have a good impression of you, you have to work harder." Zhao was overjoyed.

"Mother, don't worry, my daughter knows it." Xia Ruxue said softly, a blush flew on her face.

Today she is really happy, it is the first time to be so close to the eldest prince, but the eldest prince's attitude towards her is so gentle, and she cares about her in all kinds, she clearly feels the eldest prince's heart for her.

As long as you work hard, the eldest princess must be hers!

On the side, Xia Mengyao was a little deflated, she also went to Concubine Yu's place today, but what if she played the piano? The second prince did not come again.

She said loudly: "Mother, my sister's matter also has my share of the credit, if I hadn't pierced the conspiracy of the unequaled county lord, how could the queen mother ......"

"Meng Yao, be quiet."

Zhao hurriedly stopped her, looked out the window vigilantly, closed the window, and then came back and told her: "We just know about this matter ourselves, don't go around shouting, it's terrible to spread it." ”

"I know, don't worry." Xia Mengyao pursed her lips.

Thinking of today's events, Zhao was still a little afraid.

"This peerless county lord is really talented, if it weren't for Ruxue's wit, she would really be robbed of the limelight. If this is the case, the one the eldest prince sent home today is her unequaled county lord. ”

"Mother, aren't you worried about your daughter?" Xia Ruxue smiled slightly.

"Rest assured, rest assured." Zhao laughed, and the more he looked at this daughter, the more satisfied he became.

Maybe in a few months, she will become the mother-in-law of the eldest prince!

Xia Mengyao waved her hand impatiently: "Don't be too happy, there are four sisters!" She is willing to cooperate with her sister today, maybe she will say it tomorrow, we have to find a way to shut her up, don't fall short. ”

Zhao nodded and said, "You don't have to worry about this, my mother knows." ”

As soon as the words changed, Zhao thought of Xia Jinse again.

"Hey, you say, is the emperor's illness really so serious, why did that girl go for a day and haven't come back at this time?"

Xia Ruxue also thought of the fact that Xia Jinse was invited away by Gonggong Lu, the chief eunuch next to Emperor Yuanqing, obviously the queen mother sent someone to invite Xia Jinse first, but when she arrived at the gate of the palace, she was robbed by Gonggong Lu halfway, is this Xia Jinse really so important?

"If the emperor is seriously ill, the queen mother and the jade concubine will definitely not have the heart to hold a banquet, so it can be seen that they are just inviting the eldest sister to go for a follow-up visit, or to see some minor problems."

Xia Ruxue said while analyzing: "There shouldn't be anything, is it possible, the emperor will still take a fancy to the big sister?" As she spoke, she covered her mouth and sneered, charming and moving, more beautiful than fancy.

Xia Mengyao almost laughed out loud: "Just her? The scar on his face is almost healed, so ugly, and the emperor is not blind. ”

Nothing was said all night.

However, Emperor Yuanqing ate a bowl of supper before going to bed, and it was brought by Gonggong Lu, a bowl of white things.

"What is this?" Emperor Yuanqing smelled it, a sour smell, and the sweetness of honey.

"This is what Miss Xia told the minions, and it was just made, called yogurt. said that he ate it......" Father-in-law Lu swallowed the three words 'curing constipation', "Good stomach, good body, the emperor tastes it?" ”

Emperor Yuanqing picked up the silver spoon, tasted a little, frowned, and stretched again for a moment: "It's okay." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but speed up the spoon, and he finished eating in a moment.

"Well, it's a little interesting...... Emperor Yuanqing wiped the milk stains on the corners of his mouth, feeling the smoothness and delicacy in his mouth, which was very aftertaste, "In the future, I will serve a bowl every night and put more honey." ”

……

Xia Jinse began to be busy preparing Yunnan Baiyao, after all, there were still two days to be delivered.

Fortunately, the consciousness space can be replenished with an endless stream of medicines, she has experimented before, as long as she takes away any medicine, the next time she enters the consciousness space, the medicine is still the same as before. As long as she divides it into batches and takes it a few more times.

Thinking simply, when Xia Jinse took more than a hundred bottles of Yunnan Baiyao, people were about to collapse.

Headache...... It should have been overused, and when she got more than a hundred bottles, she felt dizzy and had to stop to rest. Fortunately, after resting for a while, Xia Jinse tried again, and it was better.

Fortunately, there are three days, otherwise let her take 500 bottles a day, I am afraid that it will really kill her.

"In the future, it seems that you have to keep some herbs on hand, otherwise you will conjure them out of thin air every time, and no one will be able to hide them after a long time, and you will be exposed when you check it." Every time something happens, Xia Jinse wants to get a loophole, and sometimes she really wants to take some time to come out, take a good look at the things around her, and check and fill in the gaps.

Two days later, 500 bottles of Yunnan Baiyao were finally ready, filled with two small boxes. Each bottle is not heavy, only 20 grams with a bottle, and only an egg is weighed by two bottles, but it can't stand much.

There are 500 bottles, more than 10 catties with a box, and they are still fragile items, and Xia Jinse can't move them alone.

When Xia Jinse went to tell Xia Yanxiu that she was going to go out and deliver medicine to the Ninth Prince, Xia Yanxiu agreed without saying a word.

Lately everything has been going well and he's in a good mood.

Not only did Xia Jinse, the daughter she didn't like, get the emperor's favor, but even the second daughter Ruxue also won the favor of the queen mother and the eldest prince, except for Meng Yao's progress a little smaller, Xia Yanxiu was very satisfied.

"Since the medicine you prepared has been taken by the Nine Princes, it is appropriate to give it away, let alone sell it?" Xia Yanxiu casually asked Xia Jinse: "How much did it cost?" ”

Xia Jinse said: "Originally, the Ninth Prince said that one or two silver bottles were given, but later he didn't give it. ”

"Why don't you give it?"

As soon as Xia Yanxiu asked, he felt that it was inappropriate, if the Nine Princes didn't give it, would he dare to interfere?

Although Xia Yan's deep imperial heart is also very authoritative in the court, there are also a few people he does not want to offend, or even dare not offend. Xiaoyao Hou is counted as one, but the Ninth Prince Lan Beichen is really what makes him jealous, and he usually meets and speaks politely, for fear that he will provoke this master with a word.

"Go, don't delay, let the Nine Princes wait for a long time." Cheyenne waved his hand.

It seems that Xia Jinse doesn't care about the eldest prince and the second prince, so he is more at ease, and now is the time to go all out to win Ruxue over.

When Xia Jinse entered the palace with Mu Xiang and two subordinates who delivered medicine, there were palace people waiting there as usual.

"The ninth prince is accompanying the emperor in the warm pavilion, let Miss Xia go, just go to the warm pavilion directly." Miyato said.

When he arrived at the warm pavilion, Xia Jinse heard a voice from afar: "Call the landlord!" ”

Emperor Yuanqing's voice was the boss: "Grab the landlord!" ”
