The inner chamber of the General's Palace.

Ye Qingzhi collected the needle and asked, "How is Madame feeling lately?" ”

Old Madam Zhao smiled and said, "It's much better, it's much better, this leg has been less sore on rainy days recently." ”

"Hmm." Ye Qingzhi sat down at the table and prescribed a prescription: "I changed the two flavors of medicine, and Mrs. will drink it for another half a year according to this prescription." ”

Old Madam Zhao obviously didn't care much about her illness, but said with a smile: "Qingzhi, why are you with Wen Ruo all this time when you go out?" ”

Ye Qingzhi nodded while writing, and after writing, she handed the prescription to the maid on the side, and explained: "Grab the medicine according to this prescription, boil three bowls into one bowl, and take it twice a day." ”

The maid nodded: "Yes, Doctor Ye, I have written it down." ”

"If my family didn't bully you, if he bullied you, you have to tell me, I'll call the shots for you." Old Madam Zhao stood up with the help of the maidservant and said.

Ye Qingzhi lowered her head and sorted out the medicine box, and said perfunctorily: "No, the general is very good." ”

Old Madam Zhao smiled and nodded: "That's good." ”

Ye Qingzhi and Mrs. Zhao arrived in the outer room, Zhao Qi hurriedly put down the teacup, stepped over in three or two steps, helped his mother from the handmaid, and asked Ye Qingzhi, "How is it?" ”

Ye Qingzhi said: "The situation is better than before, but after all, it is an old disease, and it always takes some time to recuperate." ”

Mrs. Zhao sat down on the Taishi's chair, and the maidservant took a ten-inch square, stuffed a small blanket sewn with cotton and covered it on Mrs. Zhao's knees, and the other took a stove from the table that had been prepared a long time ago and placed it on top of the blanket. This is both a stove and a medicine stove, which is some herbs that Ye Qingzhi opened before, put them in the stove every day, and apply them once in the morning, noon and evening to remove the moisture on the feet.

When the maidservants were finished, Mrs. Zhao took the stove herself and said, "You all go down." ”

One of the personal maidservants is called Chunhua, because she has been serving Mrs. Zhao for a long time, so she boldly said: "This has to be applied for half an hour, and after the dressing, it will be pressed for half an hour, so let the slave maid stay and serve the old lady." ”

"I'm talking to my two kids." Old Madam Zhao pouted her face a little unhappily: "What's the matter if you keep it." ”

Chunhua was suddenly dumbfounded, she had good intentions, and she dared to speak out because Mrs. Zhao had a good temper on weekdays, and she didn't have so many rules for their subordinates, but she didn't expect that the old lady would be angry today, and she couldn't help but hang her head a little aggrieved.

Ye Qingzhi took a sip of tea, and when she didn't see anything happening around her, she regarded herself as air.

Zhao Qi waved his hand to let Chunhua go down, and then he went to Mrs. Zhao's side, and was about to pick up the stove, saying, "I'll come." ”

Old Madam Zhao slapped his hand away, twisted her face and said, "You are a big man, how can you do this." ”

Zhao Qi raised his eyebrows: "Then I'll call Chunhua and Qiuyue to come over and serve you?" ”

Old Madam Zhao glanced at him faintly, and then glanced in Ye Qingzhi's direction: "Alas...... It's a pity that I didn't give birth to a girl, they all say that the girl is the mother's personal little padded jacket, you say what is the use of me giving birth to you, I can't even find a daughter-in-law, in addition to the two maids around me, who else do I expect to serve me, alas......"

It was probably because Old Madam Zhao sighed too long, and Ye Qingzhi was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take it back. Her clear eyes flashed with a hint of clarity, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, Ye Qingzhi's thoughtful person, how could she not know what the old lady meant, the old lady deliberately removed the maid and did not let Zhao Qi serve, that was not to ask her to come, I wanted to see if the future daughter-in-law of the Zhao family had the eyesight and would be considerate.

It is true that Ye Qingzhi never thought of being the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, so she deliberately pretended not to understand just now, but at this moment, the old lady was staring at her deliberately, and she wanted to pretend to be a little disrespectful to the old lady.

Therefore, Ye Qingzhi stood up and said lightly: "I'll come." ”

Old Madam Zhao was satisfied, the corners of her mouth rose, and her eyes curved into a crescent moon: "Qingzhi, I'm sorry for you." ”

Old Mrs. Zhao smelled the faint fragrance of herbs on Ye Qingzhi's body, and felt refreshed, this is to enjoy the treatment of her daughter-in-law serving her mother-in-law in advance, and after thinking about it again, she can already think of the picture of her children and grandchildren around her knees, and the old lady's smile is even bigger.

Zhao Qi sat down calmly, with his understanding of his mother-in-law, he already knew what the old lady had in mind. However, he didn't stop it just now, but he also wanted to see what Ye Qingzhi would do. Obviously, Ye Qingzhi's approach was beyond his expectations, and he thought that this girl would always pretend to be stupid to the end. Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

Ye Qingzhi is well versed in all the acupuncture points on her body, and she kneades it with great strength, which makes Old Madam Zhao close her eyes comfortably and hum.

Zhao Qi supported his head with one hand, his angle was just facing Ye Qingzhi's side face, his small and delicate chin drew a graceful arc, like snow, his skin seemed to be blown and broken, and his long eyelashes drooped slightly, leaving a faint shadow on the lower eyelids.

Ye Qingzhi's appearance is on the cold side, just like the snow lotus blooming on the Tianshan Mountain, noble and elegant.

Tien Shan? Zhao Qi thought - didn't this girl grow up in the Tianshan Mountains, maybe it was because she grew up there that she developed this light temperament.

Zhao Qi's fingers tapped on the side of his face, his eyes swiped Ye Qingzhi's red lips, his fingers paused, his thumb slowly moved down, and he rubbed his lower lip, as if he still had the fragrance of that day's lips and teeth.

Zhao Qi's dark eyes turned deep, his temperament was cold, and his lips were softer than expected. I sighed in my heart, I don't know when I will have the opportunity to taste it again.

Ye Qingzhi felt Zhao Qi's long-term gaze, turned her head sharply, and said coldly: "Aren't you afraid of long needle eyes?" ”

Zhao Qi smiled rudely: "Hey, my eyes really hurt, why don't you press it for me?" ”

Ye Qingzhi squinted her eyes: "It's not dark yet." "Meaning, stop daydreaming.

Old Madam Zhao listened to the conversation between the two, as if she was flirting, opened her eyes, and chuckled: "Wen Ruo, don't bully Qingzhi." ”

Zhao Qi spread his hands: "Mother, she has always bullied me." ”

Old Madam Zhao beckoned, Zhao Qi leaned over, his mother rewarded him with a chestnut in the head, and said with a smile: "Yes, there is always someone who can control you, otherwise, you will go out and can't get it back." ”

Zhao Qi rarely goes home once a year, so he is extra accommodating to his mother, and nods vigorously: "Yes, yes, what you always say is right." ”

After Mrs. Zhao taught her son a lesson, she thought of something else, and asked Ye Qingzhi: "By the way, Qingzhi, how many people are in your family, what do you do at home?" ”

Zhao Qi couldn't cry or laugh: "Mother, what are you doing here?" ”

Ye Qingzhi rarely talks about her family with others, and it's not that it's hard to say, it's just that she is a little estranged from her family, so she feels that there is nothing to talk about, so at this moment, Mrs. Zhao asked coldly, a little stunned.

After a while, Fang replied: "I haven't been home for many years, and I don't know much about the situation at home. ”

"Uh......" Old Madam Zhao was a little confused, did she not want to say it or was there some other reason?

Zhao Qi helped: "That's the case, the girl has lived with her master in Tianshan to study medicine since she was a child, and she has just come down from the mountain not long ago. ”

"Oh, that's right." Old Madam Zhao nodded, and said: "No matter how busy the young man is, he has to go home to take a look, it's better like this, when the imperial examination here is over, let Wen Ruo take you back to Huizhou to visit your parents." ”

Ye Qingzhi couldn't say anything, so she nodded indiscriminately.

Zhao Qi said: "Mother, don't worry about it." ”

"Alas, what do you know, as a parent, you have to worry about your children all your life, and when your children grow up, you look forward to being satisfied when you can come back to visit when you are free." Old Madam Zhao sighed with deep feelings.

Zhao Qi knew that his mother was going to come again, so he hurriedly made the first move, and said: "I know, I know, next month, no, I will leave for Shengzhou tomorrow." ”

Old Madam Zhao smiled, looking quite helpless about this son: "You, you...... Tell me to say anything, and I will only deal with people. ”

Ye Qingzhi looked at the conversation between the two of them very fresh, she had no experience in getting along with her parents, just from the perspective of getting along with her master, it was basically one person and one book, and she could sit from dawn to dark, without a word of communication. Occasionally, if she asked something she didn't understand, her master would explain briefly, and then continue to be silent.

However, Ye Qingzhi had no doubt that her master actually cared about herself, after all, she was a sick child when she was a child, and she relied on her master to take care of her. According to her words, her master is an awkward character, and I am afraid that there is no second woman in this world who can stand it, no wonder he has been single all his life.

However, what made Ye Qingzhi always puzzled was that her master Nan Lingzi suddenly disappeared for a few days every month, and she still didn't understand where her master had gone in those days.

Ye Qingzhi thought about it here, the old lady Zhao didn't know what to say to Zhao Qi, she was very happy, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, good......"

After another quarter of an hour, Ye Qingzhi took off the incense burner and blanket, and said, "Okay, the old lady will go to the inner room to lie down and rest for a while. After thinking about it, he called Chunhua Qiuyue in again, and specially told them to wake up Mrs. Zhao after half an hour.

Ye Qingzhi and Zhao Qi came out of Mrs. Zhao's room, intending to go back to Dali Temple, on the way, Zhao Qi said: "My mother likes you very much." ”

Ye Qingzhi said calmly: "I am deeply honored. ”

Zhao Qi still wanted to ask a few words, but the black shadow skimmed, Kagura fell in front of the two, hugged his fists, and said: "Lord Shen sent someone to say that there was a murder case in the Dragon Gate Inn, please Miss Ye hurry over." ”

When Shen Lingjun arrived at the Longmen Inn, the officials were clearing the field, and there were no math students and unrelated people who heard the sound on the side of the road gathered around the inn.

Some students complained: "How can I review this, I see that the time for the first subject exam is coming soon." ”

Some said, "If this happens, can you still review with peace of mind?" ”

The opposite said: "What does it have to do with me, he committed suicide, and he didn't ask me to die, I think this kind of person will die if he dies, and he can't even bear this pressure, how to become an official?" ”

"What do you say?" When Huang Yu's companion named Zhang Xuan heard it, he said angrily: "In vain, you are also a scholar, and you actually said such insulting words to the dead." ”

The man flicked his robe, raised his chin, and looked arrogant: "Just say it, what can you do?" ”

"You ......" Zhang Xuan was about to rush up to theorize, but the others hurriedly stopped.

The man smiled sarcastically: "What, you want to fight?" ”
