Chapter 304
Su Jinyao didn't have any rejection of good-looking girls, not to mention that this girl's eyes were sparkling when she spoke, and she didn't have any scheming at first glance, so she smiled politely at her and said, "We can be regarded as friends." Or rather, I'm his brother's fiancée. ”
Su Jinyao felt that there was nothing wrong with thinking that she was Gu Xuebin's fiancée, and she could also distance herself from the second prince, which was reasonable.
Moma said with a look of surprise: "You are Luo Ke's fiancée?" How is it possible, Luo Ke already has a princess. ”
"No, you're wrong, I don't know any Logo." Su Jinyao knew that the girl in red had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "I am not from Qingfan, I am from the Cloud Dome Country. ”
"Oh, it's my brother over there." Mo Ma smiled and bent her eyes, and said, "However, I heard that the Cloud Dome Country is so weird, every royal family can marry many wives." But in Qingfan, the king can only marry a queen and a concubine. As for the other nobles, they can only marry one princess. Unless the princess has not given birth to an heir, she will marry another concubine. ”
After a pause, Moma said again: "And in Qingfan, the princess and the prince are considered heirs, and they don't have to give birth to a boy. ”
This rule is good news for Su Jinyao, and Su Jinyao suddenly felt that the rules and regulations of Qingfan were more suitable for promotion.
But Moma's next sentence made Su Jinyao understand why there was such a rule.
Moma actually said: "In Qingfan, there are originally more men and fewer women, if you marry many wives from the beginning of the royal family, then ordinary people will not be able to get wives." If it goes on like that, the entire Qingfan will soon perish, of course it won't work. ”
After speaking, Mo Ma smiled very happily and said, "Moreover, I am the new Qingfan Zhiyan, and I can have three husbands." ”
"Poof" Su Jinyao was thundered. Looking at Moma's appearance, why does it seem like she is very happy about this?
Well, from the perspective of being a woman, this thing does (tǐng) make people happy. If only she could ...... No, no, that guy Gu Xuebin will definitely eat her.
Wait, Su Jinyao suddenly realized a problem, Moma is Qingfan Zhiyan, she can have three husbands. So, the second prince's mother, Concubine Yu Guiren, is the previous Qingfan Zhiyan, what about her? How many husbands can she have?
Of course, Su Jinyao wouldn't be stupid enough to ask this question now, it's too gossipy, even if she is a little gossip now, she won't ask anything casually.
Moma's (xìng) is indeed lively, and it is also a bit self-cooked. After saying a few words to Su Jinyao, he walked around the house by himself, and when he saw Ah Ye still lying in the house, he was surprised: "Whose dog is that?" It's beautiful. Is it Brother Mao Ke's? ”
"It's mine...... Dog. Su Jinyao thought about it for a while, and did not explain that Ah Ye was actually a half-wolf bloodline, and he was also a wolf king.
Moma was a little disappointed and said, "I thought it was Brother Maoke's dog." Then I can borrow it for a few days. ”
Su Jinyao could see that this Mo Ma should have a good impression of the second prince. Or perhaps, she, the new Qingfan Zhiyan, intends to take the second prince as one of her three husbands?
Thinking about that scene, Su Jinyao was secretly amused. She asked: "You and Cang Qianmiao, is it the same as you said that Mao Ke is very good?" He probably doesn't come back very often. ”
Moma nodded vigorously, "Of course we want to be good." But he's only been back a few times. The most recent was five or six years ago, when he returned to attend Princess Weima's 10th Decade Festival. When I was young, he sat on his shoulder with his strong arms and ran as fast as he could. ”
Speaking of this, Moma smirked to herself for a while before saying, "But I accidentally fell off that time, and then I broke my head, and now I still have a scar." ”
After speaking, Mo Ma lifted the curtain and showed Su Jinyao the scar on her forehead.
I saw that there was a big scar on Moma's snow-white and smooth forehead. Although the color has become lighter over the years, it extends from the hairline to more than an inch, almost half the length of a forehead. If it weren't for the head curtain covering, it would really affect the appearance.
Su Jinyao was also a little sorry when she saw it, so she said, "Such a big scar, I can try to help you remove it." ”
"You're a healer?" Moma looked surprised. Then he said: "Yes, I heard the messenger report that Brother Mao Ke will bring back a Han miracle doctor. Could it be you? You're so young, so beautiful, not like the witch doctor in the clan, the old skin is wrinkled, and you can only 'babble' incantations. ”
Speaking of this, Mo Ma showed a slight sense of loss, and said, "If it wasn't for the witch doctor who wiped my wound with carbon grass ash or something, I guess I wouldn't have left such a big scar." But then again, if the witch doctor hadn't saved me, I would have died a long time ago. ”
Su Jinyao, the witch doctor's medical skills, has seen it, and it is indeed not effective. But for some serious injuries (qíng), it is better to be treated than not to be saved.
Su Jinyao took two steps over and asked, "If you're willing to let me remove your scar, I'll show you a good look." ”
"Okay. It would be nice to be a little smaller than it is now. After Moma finished speaking, she walked to the chair and sat down, tilted her head and said, "If you get married, you have to comb all your hair back, and then you won't be able to cover it." I don't know if my three husbands will dislike me. ”
Su Jinyao was stalked, and she didn't know how to answer. I could only walk over and show Moma the scar on her forehead, then touched it with my hand and said, "The wound is very deep, it is more troublesome, and it is unlikely that it will be completely eliminated." But it can be restored to an almost invisible degree. ”
"Barely visible? Isn't that almost the same as being okay? Will it be a hassle? Moma's eyes sparkled with hope.
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "But it must be a bit of hardship, to grind off a layer of epidermis and apply medicine." When it is completely grown, it may be necessary to grind it again and then apply medicine. ”
"Ahh Obviously surprised and frightened when she heard this, Moma shrank and said, "Won't that hurt?" ”
"It's going to hurt. But for the sake of beauty, there should be nothing. Su Jinyao thinks that this kind of scar surgery is much smaller than the surgery to shave bones and thin the face, right?
Modern beauties can be stabbed in all kinds of places for the sake of beauty, and small fine-tuning may require more than a dozen surgeries, not to mention two small dermabrasions.
Moma shook her head in fright and said, "What if the scars are bigger?" ”
"Then let's treat conservatively first. Fade the scars with some potions, which are also effective. But it's a far cry from what I said. Su Jinyao thought for a while and said, "Why don't I help you get some ointment first, and you can try the effect." If you feel that you can trust me, I will help you do the dermabrasion surgery again. ”
"That's pretty much it." Moma nodded and said, "Then when will I get the ointment?" ”
Su Jinyao said: "Now I have herbs at hand, and it is not difficult to get a few more." You just have to come back in the evening. ”
"Then it's a deal." After Moma finished speaking, she was very happy to leave. But after thinking about it, he quickly ran back and said, "I haven't asked your name yet." What a faux pas. ”
Su Jinyao said: "It doesn't matter, I didn't say it." My name is Su Jinyao, you can call me Miss Liu. ”
"Okay, Miss Liu, I'll come back in the evening." Walking to the door, Moma suddenly turned around and asked, "Miss Liu, is my Chinese language very good?" ”
"Huh?" Su Jinyao was stunned, only then did she realize that since Moma came here, there was no barrier to their communication, and she naturally thought that Moma was talking like this. Now when Moma talks about it, she remembers that Moma doesn't speak Sanskrit.
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Yes, what you said is very good." I didn't even notice it. ”
"The last time I met Brother Moke, I could only speak Sanskrit. But after I heard Brother Mao Ke speak Chinese, I thought it was very good, so I have been looking for a Chinese teacher to teach me all these years, and today as soon as I heard that Brother Mao Ke is back, I want to come to him to hear how my Chinese is doing. But it's the same as I've told you. ”
After saying that, Moma left with a smile. Her steps are still brisk and smart, and her short skirt flutters when she walks.
Mo Ma left, but Su Jinyao took an errand, which was a Mo Ma to prepare scar removal ointment.
She sorted out all the herbs she picked along the way, some of which could not be used immediately were dried out, and some of which could be mashed and directly used in medicine, and they were all pounded into a paste now for easy use.
Time passed quickly, and when it was getting late, the little soldier who had been acting as an interpreter for Su Jinyao came with a food box to deliver food.
While putting down his things, the little soldier said, "Miss Liu, Prince Mao Ke said that there is something important to do (shēn), and he may have to come back a little later, so you can eat first, and you don't have to wait for him." ”
"Tell him, I didn't want to wait for him." Su Jinyao really didn't plan to wait here for the second prince to come back and have dinner with her.
To be honest, Su Jinyao felt a little embarrassed when she thought that she would have to get along like this for the next period of time.
But fortunately, the second prince has been quite measured along the way, never crossed the rules, and never raised any questions about feeling (qíng).
Su Jinyao only regarded the two of them as good friends, and when he was Gu Xuebin's younger brother.
The little soldier was obviously stumped, and some didn't know how to reply. To put it bluntly, I don't know what Prince Mao Ke will think.
Su Jinyao said: "It's okay, just tell the truth, he will understand." Also, I have a medicine list here, you go to the witch doctors to get the medicine. I remember they had these ready-made medicines. ”
Xiao Bing took the list and looked at it, he didn't seem to know how to read, and his brows were furrowed.
Su Jinyao had to point to the names of the drugs on the list one by one and explain them to him, because she was afraid that he would make a mistake, and she also explained several drugs that were easy to confuse. It is estimated that as soon as he talks to the witch doctor, the witch doctor can also understand the general situation. It's really not good, just take it wrong and get it again.
Xiao Bing finally remembered everything, so he asked Su Jinyao: "Miss Liu, is this medicine right away?" ”
Su Jinyao said: "Yes, I'm sorry for you." Get it for me as soon as possible. I'm going to dispense medicine for Princess Moma. ”
"Princess Moma!" The soldier was a little surprised when he heard this. grinning, as if he had something to say, but he didn't know whether to say it or not.
Su Jinyao asked curiously, "What's wrong, is there something wrong?" ”
Xiao Bing thought about it again before he said, "Princess Moma is the younger sister of Prince Qi Ke." And Prince Qi Ke is the one who wants to fight for the throne with Prince Mao Ke. ”
Su Jinyao understood as soon as she heard it, it turned out to be two people who were opponents of each other. But isn't the battle for the throne very casual? I don't care about other factions, as long as whoever becomes the king, can lead the people of Qingfan well?
This little soldier obviously has a bit of gossip in mind. Seeing Su Jinyao's curious appearance, he whispered: "That's different, competing for the throne is indeed a matter that everyone in the royal family can do (qíng), but this Prince Qi Ke has always questioned Prince Mao Ke's royal family (shēn)." If Prince Mao Ke is not a member of the royal family at all, then he is not qualified. ”
"What's there to question about that?" Su Jinyao said strangely: "Mao Ke's grandmother is the princess of Qingfan, and his mother is the previous Qingfan Zhiyan." ”
Xiao Bing shook his head again and again, and said, "This is different, although Qingfan attaches more importance to women. But the bloodline of the royal family depends on whether the prince's father is from the royal family. In other words, if the princess of the royal family marries someone other than the royal family, then it is equivalent to not having the blood of the royal family. ”
Su Jinyao heard the little soldier say that if Qingfan's royal princess married someone other than the royal family, then it would be equivalent to not having the blood of the royal family. But if you say so, the second prince Cang Qianmiao is indeed not a member of the Qingfan royal family.
Since Yu Guiren married Yunqiong and became the imperial concubine, the child she gave birth to can only be the prince of Yunqiong Kingdom.
But why, is the second prince still so sure that he is a royal family, and he still comes back to fight for the throne with such fanfare?
Or is it ...... Su Jinyao suddenly thought of what Mo Ma said: Qingfan Zhiyan can have three husbands!
This may be a fact, and it is a great shame for the people of the Cloud Dome Country. But for the Qingfan people, it is a normal good thing.
The swallow, as the totem of Qingfan, has its extraordinary significance. And the woman who is known as the swallow of Qingfan, presumably (shēn) is also transcendent.
Seeing that Su Jinyao was stunned, the little soldier realized that maybe he was talking too much, so he stopped talking, so he took the prescription and left.
As soon as Su Jinyao had eaten, the little soldier came back, and he came back with two witch doctors.
Those two witch doctors were younger in the middle of several witch doctors, but they were also in their forties. Usually the interest in learning is relatively high, so it may be that I came to see what medicine Su Jinyao was going to make.
Su Jinyao didn't shy away from them, anyway, this ointment was not a home remedies, but could have two more helpers.
By the time the ointment was ready, Moma really came again. When he came, he still brought a flower basket, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked, "Miss Liu, do you look good at this flower basket?" ”
"Beautiful." Su Jinyao took it and said, "This flower is also blooming so well, the color is so gorgeous." ”
"There are so many of them in my garden, if you like them, come with me to the garden." After Mo Ma finished speaking, he looked at the stone house again and said, "Brother Mao Ke doesn't come back often, and this house is also (tǐng) simple. Why don't you come to my place as a guest? ”
Su Jinyao suddenly felt a little alert. To be honest, if that little soldier didn't tell Su Jinyao what kind of Moma was Prince Qike's sister, Su Jinyao would feel that she was naïve. But now I'm afraid she has another purpose.
Su Jinyao shook her head and said, "I just came here, and I'm not familiar with anything yet, so let's stay here." Besides, Mao Ke is still in the palace, and it would be rude for me to leave without saying hello. I was the guest he brought in, after all. ”
"Then, if Brother Mao Ke asks you to come with me, are you willing to be a guest at my place?" Moma asked seriously.
Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Yes, but you have to agree to it." Also, I have something to do here, I have to teach these witch doctors how to heal. I promised Mao Ke that I would teach these witch doctors during this time. ”
"Really? You're going to teach witch healers? Moma looked very happy and said, "If the witch doctors learned the true art of healing, they would not only use that black herb ash to treat injuries and illnesses in the future." Even if you drink any brown decoction, I think it's better than grass ash and rune water. ”
After speaking, Mo Ma looked at the herbs on the table again, and curiously walked over and picked up one and smelled it, saying, "This herb smells very good." Why is it so ugly and smelly after being made into herb ash? ”
The two witch doctors looked at each other, quietly stepped back, and neither of them said a word.
Su Jinyao knew that the witch doctor would add some dried cow dung or wolf dung to the herb ash, and some would add burnt fish scales and the like.
Anyway, messy things will be treated as healing things by witch doctors. It is not known when or where these prescriptions were handed down.
Although Su Jinyao didn't understand the medical skills of witch doctors, she also knew some of the formulas when she communicated with these witch doctors.
Su Jinyao also made a special explanation for this, of course, as witch doctors, they have the right to retain their medical skills. But the prescriptions that Su Jinyao taught them must not be used indiscriminately, let alone add things like horse urine and cow dung.
Now that Moma said that the witch doctor's herb ash smelled bad, Su Jinyao couldn't hold back her laughter, but she had to endure and try not to debunk the witch doctor's magical "formula".
Seeing that no one answered, Mo Ma fiddled with the small copper scale and medicine pestle on the table again, and suddenly turned back to Su Jinyao and said, "Miss Liu, can you teach me too?" I also want to learn medicine from you. ”
"You want to learn?" Su Jinyao didn't know if it was in line with the rules, and then said, "I don't have any problems here, but I want to see if it is in line with the rules of the royal family, right?" Or, what licensing is required? ”
