The fortune teller was stunned for a moment, and then said in a dumb voice, "The old man calculated a hexagram for himself last night, and the hexagram shows that this afternoon, the old man here will meet someone who is destined, and he thinks that it is the son." Does Childe want to count a hexagram? ”

Scarlet Smoke sat down on the small stool in front of him, folded his fan, raised his eyebrows to look at the other party, and smiled, "Count." ”

Hearing this, the fortune teller put several round square hole coins on the small table into his palm, shook them three times in his left ear and three times in his right ear, and then raised his hand, and the coins "jingled" on the table, and the three coins were in the shape of a kite. Scarlet Smoke couldn't understand this hexagram, and she never believed in it. But seeing that the fortune teller looked at these coins with a serious face, he couldn't help but lean forward and asked curiously, "How is this hexagram?" ”

"Alas, this hexagram...... It's hard to say. The gentleman shook his head and changed his words, "But since the old man's hexagram has been calculated, the son should pay for this hexagram." ”

Xiangling stood aside, seeing that the old man didn't solve any hexagrams, but he still had to ask his own lady for hexagram money, she couldn't help but say with some dissatisfaction, "You old man is so unreasonable, although you have a hexagram, but you can't solve the meaning of the hexagram, and you ask my family's ...... Childe asks for money. Is there anyone who does this business for you? I don't think it's a cheat! ”

His eyes widened, his beard blew, and the gentleman actually played tricks, "The old man doesn't care, this little man said that the hexagram is the first, and the old man has already calculated a hexagram, but this hexagram is inconvenient to understand with you, how can it be said that it has not been solved?" The hexagram money that should be given still has to be given. ”

Xiangling saw that this person was a lot of crooked, for fear that the young lady would fall for him, and just wanted to reason with him, but was stopped by Scarlet Smoke. Scarlet Smoke closed the folding fan, and the slender jade fingers knocked on the small table "aggressively", and then smiled, "Haha, what Mr. said is very true, but he didn't bring any cash when he went out, if Mr. doesn't dislike it, you can go to sit in the humble house below, and the top hair tip is worthy of such a wonderful person as Mr." ”

Ignoring the incomprehension in Xiangling's eyes, Scarlet Smoke looked straight into the man's eyes. But a few seconds later, I heard the man sigh lightly, and said sullenly, "Alas, this disguised trick can't hide from Miss Scarlet's eyes, it seems that this hairy tip is definitely going to taste it." As soon as the words fell, Xiangling saw the person sitting opposite the young lady, reached out and wiped it on his face, tore off the beard on the side of his mouth, and after a while, he changed from a mediocre-looking old man to a handsome young man.

This person is the fifth prince who Scarlet Yan had a relationship with in Shufangyuan, Wei Ting. Seeing that he gave up his disguise, Scarlet chuckled, "In this way, it makes sense that I have to accompany my husband, if Mr. is not willing to go with him, this hair tip must be offered." ”

Wei Ting shook his head and smiled, this girl was really sharp-toothed, so he stopped arguing with her, accepted his small table and stool, made a gesture of invitation, and walked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Since he was a child, he has studied medicine with his master, and Scarlet Smoke has seen many strange things, and has experienced two lives, and what he has seen and felt is beyond the reach of others. And Wei Ting, although he is a prince, but no one in the palace can limit his whereabouts, travel the mountains and rivers, collect all kinds of rare treasures, letters and paintings, and he is the best among people. On the way back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the two of them talked about various topics, talking happily, as if they were old friends at first sight, and like old friends who had not seen each other for many days, sometimes with the same opinions, sometimes because of different ideas and arguing, the two were immersed in this kind of emotion of seeing each other and hating each other, and the nearly five miles when they came was over, and when the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion appeared in front of the two of them, they realized.

After talking for a long time, Scarlet Yan knew that Wei Ting was a low-key person, and his identity was inconvenient, so he asked Xiangling to prepare tea first, but he did not announce that there were guests to visit. Wei Ting saw that Scarlet Smoke's arrangement was simple and polite, and he felt sincerely happy to have made such a friend.

After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, the scarlet smoke stayed in the front hall for a short time, and then went to the small courtyard. From passing through the hall, all the way to the southeast, I saw all kinds of plants and trees lush, there was an orderly order in the chaos, all kinds of flowers, called famous, not famous all vied with each other, attracting bees and butterflies to fly. Wei Ting followed the scarlet smoke in front of him, but saw a small courtyard at the end of a piece of greenery, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, being in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and being a concubine, she didn't like wealth and prefers flowers and plants, and hid the house behind flowers and plants, and there are not many ladies like her.

Finding Wei Ting's curious gaze, Scarlet Smoke knew what he was puzzled about, stopped, and pointed to a pot of green potted plants not far away, "Some of these flowers and plants were planted by me, but most of them were sent by Ruohetuo. She loves flowers more than me, I raise flowers and herbs to make medicine and healers, and she is really obsessed with it. ”

Wei Ting was a little skeptical when he heard this, "Oh? But Yin Shangshu is attached to the eldest daughter, Yin Ruohe? ”

"It's her," Scarlet Yan said with a smile, "This girl loves flowers and plants very much, after I met her, she always sent someone to send some flowers and plants, and asked me about the habits of these flowers and plants. ”

Wei Ting looked in the direction of Scarlet Smoke's finger, and saw the Hanqing grass in her mouth, the leaves were blue-green peach-shaped, and in the sun, half of the leaves with clear veins were slightly transparent, and when you smell it carefully, there is a faint fragrance. Fragrance? Wei Ting was stunned, this fragrance was a little familiar, as if he had smelled it in the palace. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "This cold grass is so peculiar, is the smoke also used for medicine?" ”

Who knows, Scarlet Smoke shook his head, "This cold grass, although it smells of a special fragrance, it looks good, but it is cold, and it is not suitable for medicine." At most, it can only be ground into powder to make that rouge gouache, and the amount can not be too much. ”

Hearing this, Wei Ting's expression suddenly sank. This change fell into Scarlet Smoke's eyes, and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Has Brother Wei seen this grass anywhere else? ”

"I haven't seen it before, but this fragrance makes me feel very familiar, like Concubine De's mother......" Wei Ting thought for a while and said slowly.

Is it really Concubine De? Scarlet Yan was shocked, but his face remained silent, "I'm afraid Brother Wei made a mistake." ”

Wei Ting pondered for a while, smiled, and said, "I hope I made a mistake." ”

"But ......," Scarlet Yan glanced at him and said with a little seriousness, "If it's really that cold grass, it's best to call the imperial doctor to show it to Niangniang." At the end of the day, Scarlet Yan didn't say much, but she knew that Wei Ting must be able to understand what she meant.

A few days later, a father-in-law from the palace came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, saying that the concubine Niangniang invited the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion to enter the palace. Since Wei Yan left that day, Scarlet Yan had prepared for this, so she asked Xiangling to carry the medicine box she had made these days, and then took the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion to the palace. Although he lived in this palace for a long time in the previous life, he saw the glazed tiles that shimmered dazzlingly in the sun, the golden dragon on the eaves that seemed to want to fly into the air, and the gorgeous pavilion surrounded by duckweed in the blue water, and he couldn't help but have a sense of right and wrong in his heart.

Under the guidance of the maid in the palace, Scarlet Smoke came to the courtyard of the concubine, and bowed to the woman sitting on the right seat, "Little woman Scarlet Smoke, I have seen the lady concubine." ”

"Miss Scarlet doesn't have to be polite." The voice of the concubine is soft but not charming, the scarlet smoke looks up, and I see that the woman is very well maintained, the cheeks are like snow, and the plump wrists are like jade, so that people can't see the real age, she is wearing a dark flower cloud brocade palace dress, and the phoenix hair bun looks beautiful, with the dignity of being a concubine and the delicate beauty of being a wife.

While Scarlet Smoke was observing herself, Concubine Shu was also carefully looking at the person in front of her. Although the fifth prince is the second prince under her knees, calling her a mother, but this child is not particularly close to her, in recent years, he has traveled all over the world, ignoring the country and the society, and even listening to his father's words. And this is such a person, not long ago, he actually introduced a person to her, saying that this woman has excellent medical skills and is a real person, and hopes that she can meet her.

"This palace listened to my Yan'er talk about Miss Scarlet's medical skills." Concubine Shu said softly, "But for some reason, Ting'er asked this palace to see you, Miss Scarlet, can you solve your doubts for this palace?" ”

Scarlet Yan knew when she heard the words that although Wei Ting introduced her to Concubine Shu, but the matter of Hanqingcao was hidden, so she thought about it for a while, and said, "I don't dare to be a good doctor, the little girl has followed the master since she was a child, and she has indeed learned some meager medical skills, and she knows a little bit about it." It's just that when I passed by outside the courtyard before, I smelled a special fragrance, but when I entered the inner room, I felt that the fragrance inside and outside seemed to be different, and I dared to ask Niangniang if she used different incense? ”

Seeing that Scarlet Yan did not answer her question directly, Concubine Shu's slender eyebrows furrowed, but when she thought of Wei Ting, her cherry lips lightly opened and spit out two words, "No." ”

"The little woman saw that Niangniang's face was a little pale, and she dared to ask Niangniang if her appetite had been declining recently, she woke up frequently at night, and she couldn't sleep well?" Scarlet asked again.

Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, her beautiful eyes lowered, and she said for a long time, "Yes." ”

When Scarlet Smoke heard this, she knelt down and said, "The little woman dares to ask the mother to give the little woman a look at the sachet she has a close to. ”

"Oh? Do you think it's this sachet that's doing the trick? Concubine Shu's expression was grim, and her eyes drifted towards the scarlet smoke.

"This, the little woman does not dare to assert, and begs the mother to give me the sachet to see." Scarlet Smoke didn't get up, and continued, although his words were respectful, but his tone revealed a meaning that he couldn't refuse.

Concubine Shu looked uncertain, but still asked the maid to put an orange sachet on Scarlet Smoke's hand. Taking the sachet, Scarlet Smoke held it to the tip of his nose, sniffed, and looked at it by the light. I was a little shocked. This sachet is actually made of a large amount of Hanqing grass powder combined with other spices, and it is harmless to wear it around for a short time, but it is difficult to say for a long time. But what is more serious is that she seems to smell a smell that is very similar to the smell of Hanqing grass, but that kind of flower, which is only born in the southern Xinjiang or the Western Regions, is called the broken love flower.

How could there be such a love-breaking flower in the palace?!
