Chapter 15: Loveless Proposal
Imperial Doctor Qiao couldn't put forward his opinion, the reason was very simple, the prince was here. In these days of study, Imperial Doctor Qiao felt that the more he learned, the more he felt insufficient, and then he was afraid of the insufficiency, and then the more he learned, the more he wanted to learn. These days, in addition to sleeping and going to the toilet, Imperial Doctor Qiao spends the rest of his time studying. Wake up every morning and wash up and go straight to the master's courtyard, and wait for the master to rest every night before turning around unwillingly. Even so, Imperial Doctor Qiao still felt that there was not enough time, because the little master said that he would leave in two or three days. And today, the prince is here, do you think Imperial Doctor Qiao can have no opinion? But this opinion couldn't be put forward, because the prince Wan Yan Xiao accompanied Lord Qincha.
Wan Yan Xiao accompanied Lord Qincha to deliver the decree, and the list of rewards was even longer, Lord Qincha read it for a long time, and Yan Yue felt a feeling of breathlessness when he heard it. After listening to the holy decree, she sent Qin Cha away, and Yan Yue felt a little inappropriate. Isn't that a list of rewards many, many, and many? Why is it that after the Qin mission left, there were only two fathers-in-law standing there with trays in their hands, where did those rewards go?
"Where's my precious herb?" Yan Yue's first concern was this. Wan Yan Xiao, who was standing on the side, immediately motioned to his father-in-law to move forward, and the things in the tray were indeed precious medicines, including a pair of ginseng, a pair of spirit branches, a pair of Shou Wu and a pair of Cordyceps. Yan Yue took the tray with a happy face, and immediately called Lei Zhentian to put away these medicinal materials properly.
"Didn't the decree say that there was gold and silver jewelry?" Yan Yue wondered, there was still a public office left, how could it be impossible to put so many rewards in that tray, where did the things said in the holy decree go. Wan Yan Xiao said as if he remembered something: "Gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin, and that special pastry or something, didn't you give them away after the king rewarded you last time?" Therefore, those rewards will be left by the king this time, and when the time comes, the silver will be donated to the victims in the name of Miss Hua, and when the province is obtained, it will trouble Miss Hua. "
Although Yan Xiao's approach is understandable, but he is in charge of handling things like this, Yan Yue always feels that something is not right, but he can't say anything. Thinking that those things were gone like this without seeing them, Yan Yue suddenly felt a little regretful. Just thinking about Yan Yue but suddenly remembered something, and immediately asked: "I seem to have heard that there are ten gold leaves in the reward, won't you donate them too?"
"Donate, this gold leaf doesn't need to be exchanged for silver, this king will donate it directly." Wan Yan Xiao looked completely natural. Yan Yue's fire rushed directly to her head this time. Not only for those few golden leaves, but also for this prince's style of dealing with other people's affairs without asking for others' opinions. Yan Yue shouted directly: "My gold leaf, but I haven't even seen anything like it, so you will donate it." Why do you scoop my gold leaves, and you return my gold leaves! "
"Donated, how do you scoop it back after donating? Moreover, if I donate in your name, why should I repay you? Wan Yanxiao's face was helpless, but there was an undisguised smile in his eyes. It's a pity that Yan Yue was angry at this time and didn't notice it at all.
"Donate it to, I don't believe you can move so fast? You, you can't have swallowed my gold leaf, right? Yan Yue didn't choose what to say, Wan Yan Xiao was angry and funny, she wanted to tease her for a while, but she didn't expect her to directly turn herself into a thief. Wan Yanyue pointed to her father-in-law who was still standing in the room, and said angrily: "Ten gold leaves, how can this king put them in his eyes." This king had already guessed that you would not have much silver on you, and there was no charge for scooping medicine for the poor, so the gold leaves would be kept for you. "
Another father-in-law in the house stepped forward and opened the lid of the tray, revealing ten glittering gold leaves. Yan Yue's face turned even redder for a while, she was angry before, but now she was ashamed. After partially, Yan Xiao added another sentence: "Miss Hua likes gold leaves, this king will reward you with ten more gold leaves, don't make trouble this time, stingy ghost."
At the end of those words, there was more warmth in the tone, and Yan Yue's face turned even redder. Yan Yue would not let herself be at a disadvantage like this, and immediately said: "Lei Zhenyu, you accept these ten gold leaves first, and then follow the prince to get the gold leaves rewarded by the prince, remember not to forget to thank the prince."
Yan Yue thought that she would send that Wan Yan Xiao away like this, but that Wan Yan Xiao just waved his hand and motioned for Li Jian to take Lei Zhenyu to fetch the gold leaf, and he sat down with a smile and a silence. Under the gaze of his smiling eyes, Yan Yue was the first to be defeated, her eyes were smooth, and the last thing that fell into her eyes was the tall and burly body of Wan Yan Xiao. The indoor air suddenly became a little nervous, and Yan Yue suddenly shouted, "Imperial Doctor Qiao, come in." Imperial Doctor Qiao had been waiting for the master to summon him for a long time, but when he entered the door, he was greeted by Wan Yan Xiao with some annoyed and reprimanding eyes. For a while, Imperial Doctor Qiao was neither standing nor sitting, and the sweat on his face suddenly flowed out.
"Imperial Doctor Qiao, you should see the case first." If Yan Xiao doesn't leave, Yan Yue can't help it. But Imperial Doctor Qiao sat there like a needle felt, and the eyes of the prince were like a mang's back, where could Imperial Doctor Qiao look at the case. It's just that the master let him sit down, and the prince silently let him go, and Imperial Doctor Qiao could only stalemate there.
"This king still has some left from that specialty, and I don't know if Miss Hua likes it. The king also asked the imperial doctor, saying that this specialty is also related to the girl's healing and healing, I wonder if the girl is willing to taste it? Wan Yan Xiao asked slowly, saying that it was a specialty, but not what it was, and that it was related to healing people, but it fully raised Yan Yue's appetite. After Yan Xiao finished speaking, Yan Yue had already asked directly: "Scoop it out." ”
After Yan Xiao couldn't help but smile, he ordered someone to come up with a few small plates, and then he opened a package that had been placed on the side of the table earlier, and there were countless small bags in that package, and only after opening it, Yan Yue smelled a familiar fragrance. With Yan Xiao's movements, Yan Yue realized that what he poured out were actually all kinds of melon seeds. There are sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, hanging melon seeds, watermelon seeds, cucumber seeds, loofah seeds, sea melon seeds, gourd seeds, etc., and there are eight plates neatly arranged.
"Lord Wang, didn't you say that it has something to do with healing the sick? Why are they all melon seeds? "Imperial Doctor Qiao has all the medical skills in his mind these days, and just now I heard the prince say that the specialty is related to the treatment of diseases and people, and the nervous mood that has been being relaxed has also relaxed, and all the energy is concentrated on the hands of the prince. It's just that I didn't expect to see a plate of melon seeds. This strangeness, Imperial Doctor Qiao asked directly.
"Imperial Doctor Qiao, such a question should be asked to your master, not to this king." Wan Yan Xiao replied with a smile.
Yan Yue couldn't help laughing, this Yan Xiao must have come prepared, and he even asked if these melon seeds had medicinal value. It's a pity that an older person like Imperial Doctor Qiao is dead in reading, and his brain is a little dead, and he always distinguishes food therapy and treatment clearly, and it is not bad to teach him a lesson with this melon seed, thinking of this, Yan Yue said slowly: "Watermelon seeds, sweet, cold, non-toxic, have the effect of clearing the lungs and moistening the intestines, and quenching thirst; Luffa seeds, slightly sweet and flat, can clear heat and dissolve phlegm, moisturize dryness, and repel insects, and are used for cough and phlegm, ascariasis, constipation, etc.; Cucumber seeds, mainly for the treatment of fractures, tendon injuries, rheumatism and paralysis, and phlegm asthma in the elderly; Winter melon seeds are suitable for clearing heat, clearing the lungs, dissolving phlegm, draining purulence and dampness, lung fever cough, pulmonary carbuncle, intestinal carbuncle, lung abscess, appendicitis and other symptoms. Pumpkin seeds, can kill human parasites, treat prostate diseases, promote rapid healing of human external wounds, prevent the occurrence of kidney stones and can promote the discharge of existing stones, etc., hanging melon seeds, has a laxative effect and a carcinogenic effect......"
Imperial Doctor Qiao's mouth opened wider and wider, and he couldn't imagine that such a small snack would have such a great pharmacological effect. Sweat dripped from his head again, but this time not because of nervousness, but because of his own ignorance. Yan Yue picked up a sunflower seed casually, and continued while snorting: "As far as scooping this sunflower seed is concerned, it can be used for hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, pinworm, etc., I have a side here, Imperial Doctor Qiao might as well do it, taste it, the old man is also useful to put it around." ”
Imperial Doctor Qiao hurriedly listened respectfully, in fact, the recipe was very simple. What Yan Yue said is the recipe for mulberry hemp sunflower seed pills, take 60g of mulberry leaves, grind the end, 100g of black fat hemp and sunflower seeds, grind together, mix well with mulberry leaves, and refine honey into pills. Imperial Doctor Qiao hurriedly took the order and left, and only then was there only two people left in this room, Yan Xiao and Yan Yue.
However, the melon seed remarks just now made Yan Yue feel a lot less embarrassed, Yan Yue began to taste it one by one, but when she looked up and looked at Yan Xiao again, a thought suddenly popped up in Yan Yue's heart, this melon seed cures diseases or something, it won't be designed by this Yan Xiao earlier. Lei Zhentian left because of collecting medicinal materials, Lei Zhenyu left because of scooping gold leaves, and Qiao Imperial Doctor left because of medicine, only Yan Yue and him were left here!
When Yan Yue thought of this, her heart was nervous again. Looking at Yan Xiao's suddenly serious face and deep eyes, Yan Yue didn't eat a melon seed well, and actually choked and coughed.
"Miss Hua, this king really intends to support the people around you, and the purpose is just to ask the girl a word. May I ask Miss Hua, how is this king? Wan Yan Xiao asked seriously, the serious tone and questions made Yan Yue not understand what he wanted to ask for a while. Wanyan Xiao knew that his problem was too abrupt, and after thinking about it, he spoke again: "The girl once said that you want to find a Langjun who only has you in your eyes, and you don't want to be rich and rich, but you want to be happy with each other, and you will be a couple for a lifetime." The king wanted to ask the girl, what does the girl think of the king? ”
Yan Yue really didn't expect Wan Yan Xiao to ask such a question so seriously, and didn't think about how to answer the other party's question for a while, but stammered and asked, "You, you, aren't you married at such an age?" ”
Asking such a question in such a situation, Wan Yan Xiao couldn't help laughing, and this laugh diluted the tense atmosphere in the room a lot. Yan Yue's question just wanted to change the topic, but Yan Xiao explained it seriously. It turned out that when Yan Xiao was preparing for the wedding for the first time, the bride suddenly fell ill and drove to the west without supporting the wedding; When Yan Xiao was preparing for the wedding for the second time, the bride fell into the pond and drowned before the wedding date was set. The two big marriages failed, and Wan Yanxiao was also a little afraid that he would have a wife's disease, so the marriage dragged on until now.
"However, this king has already found a high monk, and this king does not have a wife's life, please don't be afraid of this." After Yan Xiao finished speaking, he hurriedly explained.
Yan Yue was stunned again, of course Yan Yue was not afraid, but she had not known this prince for a long time, let alone any love between men and women, how could she talk about marriage like this? The concept of marriage in the ancients is really incomprehensible. What's more, this prince is nearly thirty years old, and it is impossible for there to be no room maids or concubines in the house, how can he do anything for a lifetime.
"What does the girl think?" Wan Yan Xiao asked again.
Yan Yue couldn't help laughing, and asked directly without thinking, "Lord Wang, do you love me?" ”
This question was too direct, Yan Yue was nothing, then Yan Xiao's face turned red all of a sudden, and after thinking about it, he said slowly: "I can't talk about love with the girl." Feelings can be cultivated slowly, not to mention that I will consider marrying you because I see that you are different from other women. ”
After Yan Xiao said this, Yan Yue was really completely relaxed this time, and the prince just thought of getting married when he saw that he was different. It is more convenient to speak without the restraint of feelings: "Lord, I will never marry a man I don't love."
Marriage is when two people who love each other care for each other, depend on each other, and take care of each other until they stay together for the rest of their lives. How can a couple of men and women live together without feelings. In fact, if you want to find a woman to marry, it is very easy, but if I marry, I will marry someone I love. ”
Wan Yan Xiao stared at Yan Yue again for a long time, such an answer was something Wan Yan Xiao never expected.
