At night, there was a sudden strong wind, and the people who were still cold shrank back when they saw that they were approaching the spring equinox, and the Dashilar area had always been a prosperous place in the capital, and at this time the businesses on both sides of the street were also hung with thick door panels.

On another flower street in the distance, the red light hung high with fragrant powder, and the woman's coquettish laughter was swept by the wind, which made the street here extremely lonely.

The pharmacy had long been closed, and Yin Yutang, as before, sat on the innermost side of the counter with a bright candle, carefully looking through today's account books, twisting the wolf in his hand, and outlining the pages that had been read.

"Bang, bang......" There was a sudden sound of a rapid knock on the door outside the door, Yin Yutang didn't look up, he was still turning the account page in his hand, and responded casually: "There is no work left, go to another house." ”

"From the palace!" Immediately, the eunuch's peculiar, slightly shrill voice came from outside, and it was heard very clearly in this quiet night.

When Yin Yutang heard this, he hurriedly put down his pen and got up to open the door, and as soon as the door opened, a eunuch wearing a dark blue cotton cloak came in from outside, his head was covered in a wide hood, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

The person who came walked into the shop and took off the hood on his head, revealing a bright red top and dark brown palace robes, Yin Yutang immediately recognized that this eunuch was Zhang Bao, who was with him a few days ago.

"Grandpa Zhang came here late at night, I don't know what to order? Sit down and warm up over the roast, and I'll pour you tea. When Yin Yutang spoke, he moved a stool for Zhang Bao and put it by the brazier, and was about to make tea.

Zhang Bao dusted off the soil on the cloak and said: "Don't be busy, Niangniang sent me here for something, I want to let the shopkeeper Yin give me a look, and the shopkeeper Yin needs to rush back immediately after reading it, and the lady is still waiting to listen to the letter!" ”

As he spoke, Zhang Bao took out a piece of paper from his arms, carefully unfolded it and handed it to Yin Yutang, who moved the candlestick to the front, took the paper and looked carefully under the lamp, it turned out to be a prescription.

"This is ......," Yin Yutang looked at Zhang Bao in confusion.

Zhang Baodao: "I don't need to hide this from you, now the second shopkeeper of Deshengtang, Qian Chongmin, has unveiled the emperor's list, and now he has entered the palace to diagnose the twelve Baylors, this is the prescription he prescribed."

This prescription was not leaked, because our master was not at ease, so he asked for the leftover medicine residue today, and asked the imperial doctor in the palace to identify these medicinal materials and write them out one by one. ”

Yin Yutang first heard the three words "Deshengtang", his heart was already shocked, and he twisted the prescription in his hand, and when Zhang Bao called him, he came back to his senses, and looked at the prescription carefully with the lamp and candle.

I looked at the medicines on them one by one, and frowned unconsciously when my eyes fell on the last two flavors of Peilan and June Snow.

After pondering for a moment, Yin Yutang said to Zhang Bao: "This recipe is a partial prescription, and I can't figure out the medicinal properties of the two people, if my father-in-law is not too tired, take it with me to show the family teacher, it is safe!" ”

When Zhang Bao heard him say this, he immediately said: "Then hurry up, the master has instructed, be sure to make the various medicinal properties on this recipe clear!" ”

Yin Yutang hurriedly packed up the account books when he responded, Zhang Bao helped them go to the door panel of the store together, Yin Yutang saw that although Zhang Bao went out of the palace alone, he was driving a light carriage, and he understood that this was already prepared.

The two got into the car, and the carriage galloped all the way to shatter the silence of the streets, and soon came to the old medicine monster's house.

The two opened the door, and when Yin Yutang and Zhang Bao entered the old medicine monster's house, the old medicine monster was leaning on the kang and drinking the decoction, and his spirit was better than the previous day, but his face was still not as good as before.

The old medicine monster put the empty coarse porcelain medicine that had drunk the medicine on the edge of the kang, raised his eyes, looked over Yin Yutang, glanced at Zhang Bao coldly, lowered his eyes again, and pulled the quilt on his body up: "My old man is still a patient now, dizzy at the moment, limb paralysis, and weakness, you all go back, I can't do anything, I want to sleep!" ”

Zhang Bao saw that he hadn't opened his mouth yet, and the old man had this tone, clearly giving him an eviction order, although he was angry in his heart, but he was in the way of being an important person in front of him, so he had to hold his sullen breath in his heart, and whispered to Yin Yutang: "Please leave that matter to the shopkeeper, I'll go outside and wait for the letter!" ”

Yin Yutang nodded, and when Zhang Bao walked out of the house, he walked over and sat down on the edge of the kang with a smile, and after carefully looking at the old medicine monster's face, he said gently: "Master's complexion today is much better than yesterday, can you eat more?" ”

The old medicine monster didn't answer his words, but glanced out of the door and said coldly: "Say, what are you here for this time?" ”

Yin Yutang heard the old medicine monster's question, first sighed lightly, and said, "Father-in-law Zhang just came out of the palace and said...... Qian Chongmin, the second treasurer of Deshengtang, has already unveiled the emperor's list and entered the palace......"

When the old medicine monster heard this, he lowered his eyelids and said nothing, and he couldn't see joy or anger on his face, so he said after a while: "Since they have found a doctor, what are they doing here with me?" ”

Yin Yutang took out the prescription that Zhang Bao handed him from his arms, and said softly: "Niangniang is not at ease with Qian Er's shopkeeper, so she specially sent Father-in-law Zhang to bring the prescription out and ask me to take a look, this prescription apprentice has seen it, and the rest is acceptable, but Pei Lan has been added to it, but it has added a blind June snow, where are the medicinal properties of these two medicines, the apprentice didn't figure out ...... it."

The old medicine monster didn't speak, he stretched out a hand from the quilt, Yin Yutang immediately handed the pharmacy to him, and the old medicine monster carefully looked at the name of the medicine on it, and his face gradually became gloomy.

After reading it, the old medicine monster stuffed the prescription into Yin Yutang's hand, his face was as heavy as ice, and his lips were tightly pursed into a line, but he was still silent.

Yin Yutang saw that the old medicine monster's face was wrong, and asked in surprise, "Master, this recipe ...... Wrong? ”

The old medicine monster was silent for a long time, and let out a long sigh: "Hey! Iniquity! ”

When Yin Yutang heard this, he was shocked and said, "The Twelfth Elder Brother has already started taking medicine, Master, this ......"

The old medicine monster slowly closed his eyes, the old eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and his expression seemed to hide the pain of making a difficult choice on a thousand important matters, and he was silent for a long time, and when he opened his eyes again, the blue and white wine bottle containing Shaoxing flower carvings in the corner of the wall came into view.

The old medicine monster raised his eyebrows and said to Yin Yutang: "Little Yinzi, if the master can't come back after this trip, your master will ask you to take care of it." ”

Yin Yutang didn't expect the old medicine monster to suddenly come up with such a sentence, he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes widened in surprise: "Master, you...... This...... Is this going to enter the palace? ”

"Huh!" The old medicine monster chuckled, but his expression was much calmer: "From stepping into this industry, this may be the fate of our people, since we can't hide and can't resist our conscience, we can only take one step at a time!" As he spoke, the old medicine monster got up and put on his padded jacket.

Yin Yutang saw that the cotton robe on the old medicine monster was thin, so he took off his robe and wrapped it around him, and carefully helped the old medicine monster out of the door.
