After everyone left, the backyard of the palace suddenly became much quieter.

Except for Aunt Shen's yard.

I don't know why, Shen Mengxin's experience of 'falling out of favor and returning to favor' strengthened the idea in the hearts of the people that 'the prince is true love for Aunt Shen', everyone came to hug their thighs, they couldn't hug Shen Mengxin's thighs, and they could hug the thighs of her henchmen!

So......

"Sister Qingzhi, put it down, I'll come, I'll come!" A girl hurriedly ran over and took the wet clothes in Qingzhi's hand, "Sister's hand is still going to bake snacks for Aunt Shen!" Don't touch anything wet! ”

Song Qingzhi looked at this girl with an embarrassed and polite smile: This eldest sister, when my aunt 'fell out of favor', I was thirsty and asked you to ask for tea, but you didn't pour it for me, you forgot it?

Living people change their faces, faster than Sichuan opera.

She suddenly felt very tired, and walked to Wu Mei.

At least everyone's attitude here hasn't changed much, and it's always been so light, but it makes people feel at ease.

That's why Twig, Fluttershy, and Ye Siniang have been coming to Aunt Wu to help with the medicine lately.

On this day, everyone squatted on the ground and cleaned the gastrodia, Ye Siniang suddenly asked the little pharmaceutical girl: "I heard that your aunt still makes medicine for the Queen Mother?" ”

The little girl's name was Xiao Yao, who was only fourteen years old, and said crisply: "Yes! It is said that it is a medicine that replenishes qi and blood, and the elderly take it, if they are not sick, they will prolong their lives, and if they are sick, the medicine will be eliminated! ”

Qingzhi thought to himself that this is really a classic line of pyramid schemes fake drugs in the circle of friends, no one will believe it, right? Sure enough, everyone also laughed, saying how could there be such an elixir?

Only Ye Siniang looked like she had listened to it, and she didn't wash the medicine, so she pulled the crow to inquire for a long time.

Qingzhi knew that Ye Siniang's parents were not talented, and her grandmother brought her up since she was a child, and when she saw her like this, she walked over and asked, "Siniang, is someone in your family uncomfortable?" How do you inquire about medicine? If you are sick, you have to look for Lang Zhong to see it, don't take medicine by yourself! ”

Ye Siniang was a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "Grandma is just a little unwell, it's not a big deal." ”

Seeing that she didn't seem to want to say more, Qingzhi didn't want to ask more, nodded and walked away.

After a while, she found that Ye Siniang also often came to Wu Mei, but she thought that people were probably the same as herself, and she was forced in by the flattering atmosphere outside, so she didn't care.

Qingzhi was baking meringue in front of the oven that day, and Fluttershy hurriedly walked over to pull her: "Qingzhi, I saw Ye Siniang sneakily went to Aunt Wu's medicine storage room, you want to be good with her, hurry up and follow me to see what she is going to do, don't do anything bad, it's not good to offend Aunt Wu!" ”

Qingzhi called the girl who helped with the kitchen and got up to follow Fluttershy, and along the way the two exchanged information about Ye Siniang, and found that she had indeed been going to Wu Mei a lot lately, and she was very close to several girls in the medicine room.

Fluttershy concludes, "This bad girl isn't trying to steal the medicine, is she?!" ”

Qingzhi remembered the conversation when she was washing Tianma that day, "I think she may be trying to steal the medicine that Aunt Wu made for the Queen Mother!" Suffer! ”

"Steal the Queen Mother's medicine! Is Ye Siniang dying?! ”

Both of them quickened their pace and hurriedly walked towards Wu Mei's courtyard.

Everyone's stolen goods were taken.

Fluttershy knows that Qingzhi and Ye Siniang have a good relationship, so she takes the initiative to let Qingzhi handle the matter.

Ye Siniang put her hands behind her back, although there was a look of shame and indignation on her face, she was more stubborn and insistent, Xiao Yao couldn't stand it first, and said: "Sister Qingzhi, you are the most kind on weekdays, Siniang's grandmother is sick......

"Put it back, where did you steal the royal medicine?"

Ye Siniang and Xiao Yao said at the same time: "It's not the Queen Mother's medicine!" ”

Xiao Yao explained: "Aunt Wu also makes a batch of medicines, and there are also a few times to do it, I asked Siniang to take this medicine, which was made before, but somehow it was not sent to the palace, I think about the medicine so much, this bottle should be fine when I take it out......

Seeing Qingzhi glaring at her hatefully, her neck shrank back.

Qingzhi hated that iron could not become steel: "You are not afraid of punishment?!" ”

Ye Siniang said in a low voice: "The princess and Aunt Cao are not there......"

Qingzhi was stunned, the two of them saw that her attitude was loose, and they struck while the iron was hot, talking about Ye Siniang's grandmother's illness, Xiaoya had heard a lot of stories about Ye Siniang and her grandmother relying on each other, and her grandmother's love for her grandson, and she said several to Qingzhi when she opened her mouth.

Qingzhi sighed, her grandmother and grandmother also loved her very much before the crossing, while thinking she was fat, and at the same time trying to make food for her, knowing that her blind dates always failed, never complained to her face, and often said, 'Such a good girl, who married us Qingzhi is a blessing!' ’

She said to the little crow with a calm face: "If you are discovered, you will also be punished!" ”

"Our aunt's bodhisattva nature, it's okay!"

Qingzhi remembered that Wu Mei was always indifferent, and thought to himself, if he was really discovered, let the little fairy help intercede, it should be fine.

Several people cooperated, Ye Siniang successfully stole the medicine, Qingzhi gave her a note to go out, Ye Siniang walked all morning, went into the city and handed the medicine to the weak grandmother in person.

Only two or three days later, she went into the city again to visit, and only came back when the door was closed, and when she returned, she found Qingzhi and cried: "Grandma is dead!" ”

Qingzhi was startled, and then began to regret it, "Is that tonic bad?!" I should remind you that you can't take medicine indiscriminately! Special tonic! "Ancient tonics seem to be heavy metals!

Ye Siniang shook her head while wiping her tears: "No, no, it's not our medicine, it's grandma who went to see relatives outside the city, and I don't know if I met someone from another province on the way and contracted the epidemic!" ”

Epidemic time?!

After living in the capital and the palace for so long, Qingzhi has forgotten that the world is still ravaged by the epidemic.

The next day, Qingzhi packed the meringue and took it to the wine shop, and she made an appointment with Ritsu Zichuan a few days ago to go back to the wine shop to eat hot pot together.

Dong Zhan made the hot pot, Sun Erniang personally went to the school to pick up the green beans in advance, and everyone just sat down and Lu Zichuan came.

Everyone gathered around to eat hot pot and say goodbye, this is the first time after Qingzhi entered the palace, there is no need to rush back and forth.

Halfway through eating, Ritsu Zichuan suddenly whispered in her ear and asked, "Is something wrong?" How not to be happy? ”

Qingzhi said in a low voice: "Ye Siniang's grandmother contracted the epidemic and died. ”

Ritsu Zichuan frowned: "It's the old man who took the stolen medicine?" ”

Qingzhi was about to speak, Dong Zhan and Liu Yiyi on the opposite side were on the tip of their ears, and when they heard the epidemic, they asked at the same time: "There is still an epidemic in the capital?!" ”

The faces of the people at the table changed at the same time.

Qingzhi knew that everyone had lost their relatives by the epidemic, so he hurriedly said: "No, no, it is said that this old man went out of the city to visit relatives before he passed away, and he may have been infected outside the city, and Liangzhou City has not heard any rumors of the epidemic." ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Dong Zhan asked, "Brother Lu just said that he stole the medicine and took it, what's going on?" Does it have anything to do with the fact that you want to inquire about the fact that there is no Imperial Doctor on the Cai Tower? ”

The rest of the people also listened attentively, and Nioh was always unable to find out what was going on, and everyone was a little anxious.
