Chapter 251
After speaking, Aunt Ma left Su Jinyao behind and left by herself.
Su Jinyao took a breath and sniffed the smell of incense in the house, always feeling that it was not as pleasant as the faint bamboo fragrance of Yazhu.
But since the queen mother stayed, how could she disobey? What's more, the Queen Mother is so similar to the dean's mother, Su Jinyao also wants to stay for a while longer, which can be regarded as a pinning on her thoughts about the dean's mother.
Su Jinyao also knew that her feelings for the Queen Mother (qíng) came suddenly, and she was also a little blind. But the best memories of her childhood are deeply engraved in her mind, how can she resist facing the queen mother who is exactly the same as the dean's mother.
That's fine, at least let her respect and filial piety be more sincere. The last thing Su Jinyao wants to do (qíng) is to cater to the void and the snake, but now she doesn't feel that this feeling (qíng) will be mixed with hypocrisy (qíng).
After a while, Xi Shen'er came. But she looked cautiously at the door, and then ran in as fast as she could. He came to Su Jinyao's (shēn) and asked, "Miss Liu, what are your orders?" ”
Su Jinyao said: "I just want to take a bath and sleep." But I'm going to write a medicine list first, and you can help me get the medicine and prepare the tools for decoction. When you're ready, come back and wake me up. ”
Xi Shen'er nodded, but the table (qíng) seemed very embarrassed, as if she was very reluctant.
Su Jinyao is strange, Xi Shen'er is a well-behaved and obedient little girl, and her temper is even less at all, and she is even a little submissive, why does it seem that the boss is unhappy now?
Su Jinyao asked directly: "Xiluo'er, are you also tired and don't want to get medicine?" ”
Su Jinyao thought that she had been taking care of the Queen Mother all night in Yining Palace, and Xi Luo'er had been waiting outside? Su Jinyao felt that Xiluo'er was still a little girl, and she really couldn't stand it if she had to stay up late. He said, "If you're tired, forget it, you help me find someone who can call me, and I'll ask her to help me get medicine." In this palace, aren't there many palace maids and chamberlains? ”
When Xi Zhuo'er heard this, she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, I'm not tired, and I'm willing to get the medicine." That is, it's ...... It's just that I just saw the Four Princes. ”
After Xi Shen'er finished speaking, she glanced outside in a panic, as if she was afraid that the fourth prince Cang Qianyuan would appear now.
Su Jinyao remembered the appearance of Cang Qianyuan carrying Xi Shen'er back last night, such a small person pretending to be a big ghost, and he was still a hidden master, but he was really good to Xi Shen'er. But why is Xiluo'er still so afraid of him?
Su Jinyao said: "The fourth prince won't beat you, what are you afraid of?" Because now Su Jinyao knows that the slap on Xi Zhuo'er's face the day before was not made by the four princes, but by Yu Guiren, so she is even more strange about Xi Zhuo'er's attitude towards the four princes.
Unexpectedly, Xi Shen'er turned into a stuffy gourd again, poking there and holding it all the time, without saying a word.
Su Jinyao had no choice but to say, "Okay, I won't ask." Are you going to get your medicine or not? If you are afraid of meeting the four princes, you should talk to Aunt Ma and go back to Yazhu. Then send someone else over to help me. ”
"No, I'll go. Anyway, in Yazhu, the four princes will also go. After Xi Shen'er finished speaking, the table (qíng) was a little bit like death.
Su Jinyao secretly thought it was funny, as if Xi Shen'er didn't know how much the fourth prince liked her? Do you want to give them a red line for their childhood sweethearts?
While thinking evilly, Su Jinyao asked Xi Zhuo'er to take out a pen and paper and prescribe a prescription. In fact, it is not a rare elixir, as long as it can relieve pain and soothe nerves.
The most important thing to get rid of Gu poison is to refine that Divine Gu King. The rest of the medicines are also adjuvants.
Xi Zhuo'er ran out with the medicine, but before leaving, she pointed out to Su Jinyao: "There are ready-made clothes in the cabinet, all kinds of sizes, just pick your favorite color and style and find out." The small room behind the curtain can be washed, and the water is prepared in the morning, and the girl will wash it and put it away, and someone will clean it up. I'm going to get the medicine, does Miss Liu still need to get something back from Yazhu? ”
Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "No need, just put my things in Yazhu." Nothing to use. ”
Xi Shen'er agreed, and then went out quickly.
Su Jinyao went to the wardrobe and opened it, and saw that the layers of lattices inside were full of clothes; The door on the left is open for men, and the door on the right is open for women. The colors are arranged layer by layer from light to dark, and the colors are really three sizes: large, medium, and small.
In other words, this is a superior room, whether it is a man or a woman, tall, short, fat and thin, you can probably find the right clothes, more complete than a ready-to-wear store.
Su Jinyao picked out a (tào) purple-gray dress, a very low-key color, slightly old-fashioned, but she had an absolutely powerful aura when she wore it.
Su Jinyao knew that she (shēn) was a disciple of the divine doctor, and she needed this kind of aura. Otherwise, with her age and status, it would be difficult to move an inch in this palace, and she could even be reduced to scum in minutes.
What's more, there is also a master of Gu cultivation hidden here, and the Divine Gu King raised by that person is even more powerful than her little chubby girl.
When you come to the inner room, you won't think of it as a bathroom, and a large wooden chuáng (chuáng) with velvet cushions looks more comfortable than ordinary chaise longues.
Behind the screen inside are two oak barrels, one large and one small. The small ones are more normal and can be sat in and bathed. The big one made Su Jinyao feel that if it was full of water, she should be able to swim for a while.
What also surprised Su Jinyao was the two large water tanks placed in the corner of the wall. One of them was full of water, and when the wooden lid on top of it was opened, it was still bubbling. She took a closer look and realized that the rè tank was specially made, with a small opening underneath, and it was stuffed with carbon.
In other words, this (rè) tank is insulated for a certain period of time. If the water is filled in the morning and the carbon underneath ignites, it is estimated that there will be water available for the whole day.
Su Jinyao put water in the relatively normal small wooden barrel, and didn't plan to soak it for a long time, so she went in and took a bath, so that her mind could relax and come out.
After wiping it clean and changing her clothes, Su Jinyao returned to her bedroom and lay down on the large (chuáng) piece of agarwood.
Agarwood is different from agarwood, which is a kind of coagulation secreted on the wound after the agarwood tree is injured, and it dries up to form agarwood. Agarwood is a kind of wood, although it is also very precious, and it also has the unique fragrance of agarwood, but after all, it is not agarwood, and it will not be outrageous.
This (chuáng) made Su Jinyao like it, lying down and smelling the restrained and rich breath of agarwood, and soon fell asleep.
However, because this is the palace, Su Jinyao's vigilance (xìng) is still there, she did not let herself fall asleep, but woke up as soon as Xi Shen'er came back.
Coming back with Xi Shen'er was the fourth prince Cang Qianyuan, who changed back to the appearance of the cute and silly boy, and followed Xi Shen'er (shēn) with a grinning face, like a scoundrel little ruffian.
Xi Shen'er looked helpless, she didn't dare to offend and couldn't drive away, so she had to bow her head and not speak, and do her own thing.
Su Jinyao woke up, put on her clothes and came out and asked, "Xiluo'er, are everything ready?" Then you can help me prepare a stove for me, and I'll start making medicine soon." ”
"Hey, why do you call the joy pendant? Why don't you work if you have hands and feet? The fourth prince was still protecting Xi Shen'er, and glared at Su Jinyao after speaking.
Xi Zhao'er hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Aunt Ma said that Miss Liu is the master." Fourth Prince, I can't play with you today, you go study. ”
"I don't study, what my husband taught me yesterday will be the day before yesterday, so I don't need to learn." Cang Qianyuan said, put a jar in his hand on the table, and said to Su Jinyao, "What is in here?" ”
Su Jinyao shook her head curiously. She didn't know what was in the jar, she hadn't asked for any jar at all.
Xi Shen'er explained on the side: "Aunt Ma said that this is the blade of grass you brought back last night, saying that there are insects in it, she doesn't know how to deal with it, and she won't let us open it casually." ”
Su Jinyao then remembered that yesterday she asked the blue bird to retrieve more than a dozen grass blade tubes, and only opened five of them. There were three in front of them that were empty, one was a non-poisonous red Gu worm, and the other was the Divine Gu King. At that time, the rest of the grass blade tubes had not moved, and the giant ant god Gu King was very powerful, Su Jinyao was busy and forgot about it, and she didn't take it with her when she left, let alone do anything to deal with it.
Fortunately, Aunt Ma was delicate and not too curious, so she directly put those blades of grass in a jar and gave them to Su Jinyao to deal with.
Su Jinyao walked over and patted the jar and asked Cang Qianyuan, "Fourth prince, do you want to see something interesting?" ”
"What's all the fun?" Cang Qianyuan tried his best to show that he was very curious, but looking at his eyes, he knew that not only was he curious, but he might also think that Su Jinyao was an idiot.
It is estimated that in order to cooperate with his cute and stupid illusion, the four princes usually have to pretend to be ordinary children, which is not easy.
Su Jinyao's bad intentions popped up, but she just wanted to tease him at this time, or directly poke him, and by the way, let Xi Shen'er know this kid's intentions, so that she wouldn't have to avoid him in the future.
Su Jinyao said, "If you want to know what it is, just wait and see." However, if you are a man, you are not allowed to run for a while, and you will be responsible for protecting Xi Shen'er. ”
"Cut, who's going to run." The fourth prince glared at Su Jinyao, but when he looked at Xi Luo'er again, he didn't have a good face, and stuck out his tongue and said, "Let me protect her?" She's a low (jiàn) slave, and she should protect me. ”
Su Jinyao shrugged her shoulders and said it didn't matter. But he secretly said in his heart: This stinky boy's temper (tǐng) stinks, and he can pretend to be able to do it.
But after thinking about it again, Su Jinyao felt that this fourth prince was still similar to Gu Xuebin back then. has a handsome face, but it stinks more than anyone else. Obviously I like it in my heart, but I don't have a good face.
And the fourth prince is definitely younger than Gu Xuebin back then. Such a small (pì) child has a favorite little girl, isn't it precocious? Or is it that this big dye vat in the palace has taught all the children badly?
I really don't know if this kid will grow up and will be deep in the little girl Xiluo'er. Or is it like his emperor's father, who has the beauties of the world and three thousand beauties in the harem?
Su Jinyao was slipping away, and Cang Qianyuan said impatiently: "Hey, do you still want to open it?" If there's nothing fun, I'll take the joy out to play. ”
"Don't go, don't go, I'll open it now." Su Jinyao said, reached out to lift the big wooden stopper stuffed on the jar, and asked, "Are you scared when you are in such a hurry to go out to play?" ”
"Cut, if you have the ability, it will really scare me again." After all, the fourth prince is still a child, and he also has a bit of a boy's stubbornness, not only did he not leave, but he also moved closer to the jar that Su Jinyao was pressing.
Su Jinyao secretly asked her little fat to come out obediently and hid in the gap between her sleeves, so as not to come out for a while, which was really beneficial Gu worms, and hurt the four princes and Xi Shen'er.
Although the giant ant is a god Gu king who is better than a little chubby, such a powerful guy is not seen everywhere, and it can even be said that it is rare in a hundred years. Therefore, Su Jinyao is not afraid of another one, and the rest of the people below this level will definitely be able to deal with her little fat girl.
Su Jinyao pulled the wooden cork off the jar, and Xi Shen'er was a little scared.
The little girl is like this, she is more curious about the unknown, but it is easier for her brain to make up some strange things, so she is so frightened that she takes a step back, but she also stares intently.
Although the fourth prince Cang Qianyuan said that Xi Shen'er was a slave, and he still had such a stinky tone and a look of disgust, he knew very well at this time that he was protecting Xi Shen'er. He leaned over as much as he could, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, such a small jar won't have any big guys in it." ”
Xi Shen'er nodded, but whispered: "But, what if it's a mouse?" What if it's a bat? What if it's a snake? In case ......"
"Where do you have so many in case? If it's one of these things, I'll grab it in the face of that stinky girl. After the fourth prince Cang Qianyuan finished speaking, he looked at the jar and asked Su Jinyao again: "Stinky girl, what's inside?" Don't sell it mysteriously, this prince is very bold, and he won't be afraid of these things. On the contrary, you should pay attention to yourself, I will not care if you are bitten or scared for a while. ”
After that, he added: "For the sake of the prince's brother's face, I scared you to death, I will help you report a letter and ask him to collect your body." ”
Su Jinyao glared, she really didn't expect this little (pì) child to have such a bad mouth and look like a stinky one. If it weren't for the fact that he still looks a little bit good, and knowing that he actually didn't mean bad, Su Jinyao would have slapped him and helped his mother discipline him.
Anyway, Su Jinyao thinks that children must not get used to it, and everyone can help his mother get used to it. Especially those children who are spoiled, they must not be let go, and adults are used to being ignorant, just take care of them a few times.
As he spoke, there was finally movement in the jar. At first, it was a "rustling" sound, very small, as if something was about to crawl out.
Xi Shen'er stared at it tightly, and suddenly shouted: "Red, red tentacles." ”
Then I saw a red strange insect crawling out, red in color, with curved antennae, and a strange appearance, it was the one that Su Jinyao first played with in her hand yesterday.
This insect looks fierce (tǐng), but in fact it is not lethal, and it does not act fast, so it can be raised as an alternative pet. I didn't expect Aunt Ma to bring it in a jar as well.
Su Jinyao stretched out her hand, pinched out the Gu worm and put it in her hand, and comforted: "It's okay, this worm doesn't bite, it's still (tǐng) well-behaved." This color is also pretty, right? ”
"Where did you get this?" The eyes of the four princes were firmly fixed on the red insects in Su Jinyao's white palm, and the table (qíng) was very weird and exciting.
Su Jinyao didn't tell the truth, but just said, "Guess? ”
"Hmph." Cang Qianyuan sneered and said, "I probably know what's in this jar, so you'd better not play any tricks." ”
"Why are you so unavoidable, little kid? Isn't it fun to be pretended to be scared? Su Jinyao glanced at Cang Qianyuan, sent the strange insect in front of him, and said, "If you're not afraid, help me get it, and I'll see what's inside." You might even win the jackpot. ”
Su Jinyao meant to see if there were any beneficial Gu worms. Even if there is no giant ant level, other kinds of ones can be used as food for her little fat girl as long as they are a little more harmful and poisonous.
Gu Ben (shēn) is to be able to grow stronger by devouring the same kind, and it would be great if these free foods could improve the strength of the little fat girl. Su Jinyao planned to be able to find some good ingredients for her Divine Gu King Xiaopang, and after speaking, she stuffed the Gu worm in her hand into Cang Qianyuan's hand.
But before her hand reached out to the jar, the table (qíng) of the four princes was particularly strange.
It's kind of like ...... As constipated, he stared closely at the red strange insect that Su Jinyao stuffed into his hand. It feels like you're going to sweat the next moment.
At the same time, Xi Shen'er was also frightened, and took two steps back, staring closely at the insect in the hands of the four princes, and the appearance (qíng) was as surprised and wonderful.
Su Jinyao hurriedly stuffed the jar again and asked, "What's wrong?" The Four Princes (diàn) can't be really afraid of bugs, right? Although this bug is a little weird, it definitely won't bite, so you can keep it as a pet. You don't usually need to take care of it, just give it some sugar water to drink, or catch two mosquitoes and flies to feed. ”
"Where did you come from?" After the fourth prince finished speaking, he didn't wait for Su Jinyao to answer, he stuffed the Gu worm in his hand into his sleeve, and pulled out a red silk rope from the collar casually.
Many children of rich and noble families will carry some golden locks, jade pendants, or some sachets with special meanings, but the silk thread on the neck of the four princes is a bone flute.
