Chapter 192: Disguise
Mu Xia looked at the girl in the mirror, and her eyes couldn't hide her amazement. She has been wearing her own young lady's long face for a long time, but she already looks good every day.
"Okay, let's eat something first, and then I'll go to Ningshou Courtyard to say hello to the old lady."
Jade helped her to sit down on the chair in front of the table, and then placed a bowl of jade shrimp porridge in front of her.
Mu Xia was still a little nervous in her heart, she pretended to be a young lady but she hadn't seen so many people, and she was really afraid that she would not be discovered or smeared by the young lady.
"Jade, I'...... My calves are a little weak. ”
She blinked and looked at Emerald pitifully.
The corners of Jade's mouth twitched, and she shook her cold hand to reassure: "Don't be nervous, only Miss Feng has a good relationship with you, if others don't want to pay attention to it, don't pay attention to it." ”
Anyway, my own lady has always been like this, and people who don't like it don't even give a look. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people who don't like their own young lady and think she is too arrogant.
Mu Xia barely ate a few mouthfuls of porridge and crystal buns before getting up, taking a deep breath and walking away in the direction of Ningshouyuan.
Some families have special places to hold banquets, and the Lin Guogong Mansion rarely holds flower banquets, so the Flower Dance Pavilion is rarely open, but there are special people to clean it every day.
When Mu Xia came to Ningshou Yuan with jade and agate, there was a burst of laughter inside, which was very lively.
Seeing her come in, the old lady beckoned lovingly.
Mu Xia stepped forward and saluted the elders in the house before sitting down next to the old lady.
The old lady patted her hand lovingly, and said with a smile: "Your body has just recovered, and the matter of entertaining those young ladies will be handed over to your second sister." ”
Mu Xia naturally couldn't ask for it, although she pretended to be a young lady, she didn't have the experience of entertaining these noble girls. Now it is good to be able to throw it to this second lady, and her heart is a little relaxed.
"The granddaughter has no opinion, the second sister is going to have to work harder."
A flash of surprise flashed in Lin Youran's eyes, but there was a soft smile on his face: "My sister's body just happens to be really not easy to work, and my sister should work harder." ”
After speaking, she lowered her eyes, the last time she went to visit Lin Zhuohua, she was obviously very sick. Mama Dong knows a little about medical skills, so she is sure that it is not pretending. But today, looking at her ruddy face, although she is a little weak, she is indeed no longer sick.
That's weird!
Guests arrived one after another, and Ningshou Temple became more and more crowded.
Everyone is very envious of the Lin Guo Mansion, two girls, one is the future crown princess, and the other is the future princess Yi. One is the future emperor, and the other is the most favored prince.
Although he was envious and jealous in his heart, no one dared to stir up trouble at this time. Everyone said flattering words in their mouths, praising the two sisters Lin Zhuohua and Lin Youran to heaven.
Mu Xia sat there quietly with a smile on her face, and Jade said that she only needed to be a quiet beauty.
More and more people came, and the old lady looked at Lin Youran and said, "Youran, you can take these young ladies to the garden for a walk." ”
"Yes, grandmother." Lin Youran stood up, and looked at these ladies of the family after speaking softly: "Ladies and gentlemen, come with Youran." ”
Watching Lin Youran leave with the young ladies of each family, Mu Xia glanced outside, why hadn't that Miss Feng arrived yet? She was only familiar with that Miss Feng, and others still felt strange.
As soon as she finished thinking, she saw Miss Feng walk in with a middle-aged woman.
After Feng Yanran greeted the elders in the house, she ran to Lin Zhuohua's side and said with a smile: "Look at your complexion, we can have a good discussion when we raise it." ”
The sparring partners at home can't beat her, and it's not fun at all. It's still the most refreshing to learn from Lin Zhuohua, although most of the time he is abused and beaten.
She really couldn't understand, how could Lin Zhuohua's progress be so fast? She obviously has a very serious practice of the mental method and kung fu taught by her master, but she still can't beat Lin Zhuohua.
But this did not delay her enthusiasm, and she became more and more courageous as she went.
The corners of Mu Xia's mouth twitched, she really didn't know how to answer this. I heard that this Miss Feng is a fellow of her own young lady, and her kung fu is also good, and she is a militant.
"Okay, wait until my body is well."
Mrs. Feng looked at her daughter's vivid smile, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and there was a bit of doting in her eyes.
"Okay, don't make a fuss here, follow Zhuohua to the back."
Feng Shuhui stuck out her tongue, and then pulled Lin Zhuohua out with a smoke.
Mrs. Feng was also helpless, and looked at Mrs. Lin with a slight apology: "Shuhui, this child is spoiled by me, don't you mind." ”
Mrs. Lin smiled and shook her head: "How can you mind, Zhuohua likes Shuhui very much." I'm very happy that the two of them can play together. ”
Her daughter has almost no friends, and she is really quick to see that she can have such a good playmate, and she likes Feng Shuhui's cheerful temperament very much.
Mu Xia was pulled out by Feng Shuhui here, but did not go in the direction of the garden. Instead, he walked around a small road in the direction of Taoyuan, obviously Feng Shuhui was very familiar with the Lin family.
"I hate being with those young ladies the most, or staying comfortable in your peach garden."
The corners of Mu Xia's mouth twitched, but she was also uncomfortable, but fortunately, she knew a little about this Miss Feng. asked Jade to get some snacks and an ice bowl for each person, and then she leaned on the soft pillow and listened to Feng Shuhui talk about some gossip in Shangjing.
By the time the banquet began, when Mu Xia and Feng Shuhui had passed, everyone was seated.
She sat down next to her mother-in-law and said softly, "Mother." ”
Mrs. Lin looked at her daughter with a loving look on her face: "If you are tired for a while, go back, anyway, you have already appeared, everyone knows that your illness has been cured, and it is not enough for the plague." ”
Mu Xia nodded, anyway, as long as it can solve Miss's troubles.
was chatting when he suddenly heard someone outside announcing that Mrs. Zhong was coming.
Everyone was stunned, this old lady doctor Zhong has only been living peacefully at home since he was no longer the head of the hospital. rarely comes out and walks around again, and his medical skills are also very famous, even surpassing Doctor Ning.
When Old Lady Zhong came in, Mu Xia looked over with some curiosity. It was a tall and thin old man, with gray hair, but he was full of energy when he looked at it.
"Old Lady Zhong."
Mrs. Lin and the others got up to greet them, and she remembered that she didn't seem to have sent this flower banquet post to Mrs. Zhong.
Old Lady Zhong's face was kind, and she looked at Mu Xia with a smile: "You are Lin Zhuohua, the eldest lady of the Lin family, and you are the first in the competition of the Chinese Medicine Hall in the Third Hospital." ”
Mu Xia nodded: "Yes." ”
She answered neatly, and there is a saying that it is wrong to say more, and it is not bad not to say it. It's impossible not to speak, so just try to be as concise as possible. Fortunately, my own lady doesn't talk much nonsense on weekdays, so she won't show her stuffing.
The old lady looked at Old Lady Zhong and pondered for a while before she spoke: "What is the matter with Old Lady Zhong coming today?" ”
Old Lady Zhong withdrew her gaze from looking at Lin Zhuohua, looked at Old Madam Lin, and said with a smile: "The old man received His Majesty's order to see Lord Ronghua. ”
Everyone was slightly stunned, and then remembered that the rumors in the market before said that Lin Zhuohua was infected with the plague, and the Guogong Mansion concealed it and did not report it. In the palace, except for the queen who has expressed something, the emperor has never expressed it.
I thought that the queen's attitude represented the emperor, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.
Many people watched this scene with schadenfreude, regardless of whether Lin Zhuohua was infected with the wind chill or not, this can already prove the emperor's attitude towards her.
Mu Xia was stunned for a moment, and she looked at Old Madam Lin.
Old Madam Lin showed a reassuring look at her, then looked at Old Lady Zhong, and said with a smile: "The emperor is wise, that's really good, just show Zhuohua, lest the rumors outside be full of flying, and the fake will become true." ”
As soon as the old lady said this, it became that the emperor specially invited the old lady Zhong to prove Lin Zhuohua's innocence and completely clarify the rumors.
Mu Xia obediently stretched out her hand and let Imperial Doctor Zhong diagnose her pulse.
Imperial Physician Zhong withdrew his hand and said with a smile: "Lord Ronghua's body is not in serious trouble now, but his body is still a little weak after recovering from a serious illness, so it is good to nourish for a while." ”
Now it is proved that Lin Zhuohua is not infected with the plague, and there are rumors and slanders outside.
The corners of the old lady's mouth curled, and then she looked at Old Lady Zhong: "Since Old Lady Zhong is here, can you stay?" ”
Old Lady Zhong waved her hand: "No, the old man's family still has to enter the palace to give the emperor a life, so let's go." ”
Mrs. Lin got up and personally sent Mrs. Zhong out.
Not long after the old lady Zhong left, the queen's phoenix arrived.
Everyone immediately got up, and the queen who looked at her as she walked in immediately knelt down.
"The queen is auspicious."
The queen walked to the main seat and sat down, looked at the kneeling people below, and said with a smile: "Get up." ”
Everyone got up and sat down, but they didn't expect that the queen would really come to attend the flower banquet of the Lin Guogong Mansion in person.
The queen glanced at the reactions of the people below, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes. Then he looked at Lin Zhuohua lovingly and beckoned: "Zhuohua, go and sit beside the palace." ”
Mu Xia was a little cowardly, it was the first time she had seen the queen mother. This is one of the most honorable women in Jingguo, who she never expected to meet in her life.
Jade looked at Mu Xia stunned and gently pulled her clothes.
Mu Xia came back to his senses, quickly got up and sat down beside the queen obediently. It's just that her hands hidden under her long sleeves are a little shaky, and her palms are even more cold sweat.
The queen held Lin Zhuohua's hand and found that her palms were sweaty, and her little hands were cold. His brows furrowed slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "But it's uncomfortable?" Why are these hands so cold? ”
Mu Xia chuckled in his heart, then forced himself to calm down, and said, "It may be that he has just recovered from a serious illness, and his body is still a little weak." ”
The queen sighed when she heard this, and said softly: "In that case, let's go down and rest early." ”
Mu Xia naturally couldn't ask for it, and immediately got up and blessed his body: "Then Zhuohua will go back to rest first." ”
Everyone saw that Lin Zhuohua left with the maid after saying a few words to the queen, although they were curious, no one dared to ask more.
This flower banquet has the queen in charge, and naturally no one dares to trouble the Guogong Mansion. A flower banquet was a great success, and the guests were happy.
Mu Xia returned to Taoyuan with jade and agate, and the whole person relaxed.
"I didn't expect the queen to be so beautiful, she is the best-looking woman I've ever seen except for Miss."
Jade and Onyx glanced at each other, and then laughed: "The queen mother was a famous beauty before she got married, although she was born as a businessman, but she has strong beauty ability, and there are many people who come to ask for marriage."
"Then the emperor also likes the queen's mother to marry her?"
Looking at Mu Xia and looking at them curiously, the corners of Jade and Agate's mouths twitched: "How can we know this, but we all say that the relationship between the emperor and the queen is harmonious." ”
"Okay, let's not talk about that. It looks like it's going to be noon, so I'll get you something to eat. ”
Although the queen mother is very kind to the people in the Guogong Mansion, how can they discuss behind their backs whether she is the mother of a country.
Jade was just about to go to the small kitchen when she saw Feng Shuhui coming over, she was slightly surprised: "Miss Feng, why are you here?" ”
"It's really boring over there, so it's better to chat with her here in Zhuohua. Are you going to get food? ”
When she came in, she saw that Jade was walking in the direction of the small kitchen, and her eyes lit up instantly. The few maids around Lin Zhuohua are all good at cooking, and the things they cook are very delicious, at least they match her appetite.
Jade nodded: "Miss Feng wants to stay here to eat?" ”
Feng Shuhui nodded, she was very familiar with several maids around Lin Zhuohua, so she was naturally not polite: "Well, it's rare to eat the jade you cook." ”
Jade smiled slightly: "Then Miss Feng will go in and chat with my young lady, and the slave will go to the small kitchen." ”
Feng Shuhui nodded, and then happily went to the house to chat with Lin Zhuohua.
Mu Xia looked at Feng Shuhui who came in, and gave herself a little wax in her heart, and she had to deal with it with the spirit on her face, but she couldn't show her stuffing. After all, this Miss Feng has a good relationship with her own young lady, and it will not be good if she finds out.
Medical Valley
Lin Zhuohua was sitting in a simple but warm hall at this time, holding a teacup in his hand and drinking slowly.
It was the third cup of tea she had drunk, but the person she wanted to see still hadn't appeared. However, she was not in a hurry, and only continued to drink tea leisurely.
As she was about to finish her cup of tea, she heard a series of footsteps. The corners of her mouth curled, and she looked up at the man who had come out of the inner room.
"Let Jing Gongzi wait for a long time." The Great Elder looked at the young man with the mask in front of him, although he couldn't see the facial features, but from the exposed nose and mouth, he could already see how handsome he was under the mask.
"It's okay, the Great Elder is done with this?" She put down the teacup in her hand, and her tone was calm without the slightest displeasure.
The Great Elder raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised in his heart. The young man was so calm that she didn't feel angry at all when she deliberately cooled him for so long.
"Well, I don't know what Gongzi Jing is looking for me today?"
The Great Elder sat down on the chair at the top, took a sip of the tea poured by the maid and asked.
Lin Zhuohua gave the red beads beside him a look, and the other party immediately stepped forward and said in a low voice: "This is the flower tea that our son-in-law prepared himself, give it to the Great Elder to taste." ”
The Great Elder was slightly stunned, and then took the flower tea. I opened it and looked at it, and then asked someone to put it away.
"I have a prescription here, I don't know if the Great Elder is interested." Lin Zhuohua glanced at the flower tea that had been taken away, and then took out a prescription and handed it over.
The Great Elder was stunned for a moment, then took the prescription, and when he saw the prescription written on it, his face changed slightly.
"You ......"
The corners of Lin Zhuohua's mouth rose, and then he got up: "I'll retire first today, if the Great Elder doesn't understand something, you can ask someone to come over." ”
After saying that, she ignored the stunned Great Elder and left with Bai Yu and Hongzhu.
Back at the place where he lived, Bai Yu asked curiously, "Miss, what kind of prescription did you give to the Great Elder, she seemed very surprised by her appearance." ”
Lin Zhuohua leaned lazily on the soft pillow, and when he heard Bai Yu's words, he smiled: "It's nothing, it's just a prescription that can cure the Great Elder's dark disease." ”
Before coming to the Medical Valley, the old ghost first came to the Medical Valley to help her explore the way. After seeing the Great Elder, when he came back, he told her that the Great Elder had a poison in his body, but the Great Elder suppressed it with medicine, which showed that he had not found a way to detoxify.
Her prescription is the recipe for the antidote. According to the medical skills of the Great Elder, you will definitely know it at a glance.
This is the sincerity she gave, and the rest depends on how the Great Elder thinks and responds.
Bai Yu is more and more adoring her own young lady, and she is simply the number one little fan girl.
"Miss, Lord Ni Yuan asks to see you."
Ning Qi's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and his words made Lin Zhuohua slightly stunned. She has been coming to the Medical Valley for a while, and Xue Zhen'er has been here several times but she has been turned away. Unexpectedly, today, Lord Ni Yuan took the initiative to come over and ask for a meeting?
"Let her in." She was very curious, what did the Lord of Ni Yuan come to find her for?
Although Hongzhu and Baiyu are now men's clothes, they are still afraid of being recognized by Lord Ni Yuan, so the two went to stay in the inner room.
Ning Qi came in with Lord Ni Yuan, who was wearing a long aqua blue dress, and then stood behind Lin Zhuohua and hung his head respectfully.
Lin Zhuohua lazily raised his eyelids: "What is the matter with Lord Ni Yuan coming to find this son?" ”
Lord Ni Yuan looked at the young man sitting on the low collapse, with a noble and lazy temperament. Although she has a mask on her face, she can still see that her face is very handsome, especially the pair of cherry lips are very beautiful, even as a woman, she is very jealous.
"I heard that Jing Gongzi is not only good at medicine, but also very good at poison. Ni Yuan was poisoned, I don't know if Jing Gongzi might solve it? ”
The internal force kept disappearing, and now her internal force is gone. As long as she practices some, it will soon disappear. It was nothing short of torture for her.
So after asking about the identity of this Jing Gongzi, she thought about it for a long time and finally decided to try her luck, what if this Jing Gongzi could help her get rid of the poison?
Lin Zhuohua almost laughed in her heart when she heard this, when she gave this poison to Lord Ni Yuan, it was to avenge Feng Shuhui. Now that this Ni Yuan County Lord actually came to her to detoxify, it was a pipe dream.
Since she is down, there will be no detoxification for her.
"But this son heard that the master of the county lord Ni Yuan is a well-known poisonous lady in the rivers and lakes, and she can't solve the poison, and this son can't either."
