Chapter 50: Makoki the Confidant (1)
Pei Yao had the heart to fulfill a master-apprentice fate, and she thought about the 'chance' that Chao Rong insisted on repeatedly, and finally said that she could be regarded as an opportunity between Xiangyao and him.
"Besides, what about the ten spotted frogs? If it weren't for my second brother, maybe you wouldn't be able to find the vein for Mr. Yiyuan now! You won't know me, and no one will help you go! ”
"This ......" Chao Rong seemed to be moved, hesitated for a while, and said to her: "Wait for the old man to try him!" ”
Seeing that he relented, Pei Yao couldn't help but rejoice, and wanted to ask him how he planned to try, but Chao Rong closed his mouth and kept a secret from her.
After a while, Yu Xu came over and said that the tonic stewed for Mrs. Huan was ready, and asked when she would go to Nanyuan.
Pei Yaowei glanced at Chao Rong on the side, originally promised Mrs. Huan yesterday that she would take this 'gardener' to Nanyuan today, but remembered that she heard that Xiang Tao was resting today, maybe she would meet her in the past, so she took a break and only took the maid away.
As soon as she arrived in Nanyuan, sure enough, Xiang Tao was busy with official business in the study, and she went to see Mrs. Huan to accompany her.
"Look at your complexion, I heard from the second brother yesterday that Mr. Yiyuan has come back, and he has been serving in Heshou Palace for the past two days, and when Mr. leaves the palace, please come and see you."
When her voice landed, Juan Niang brought tea and said to her: "The girl doesn't know, the queen mother has taken Mr. Yiyuan's medicine, and she is already well!" As soon as the gentleman returned to the palace today, the county prince got the letter and immediately sent someone to invite him. It's just unfortunate that I heard that someone in the palace of King Chu was sick, and Mr. couldn't leave for a while, so he only promised to wait for the other end to settle down, so he came to see his wife! ”
Is there someone sick in the palace of the king of Chu?
As soon as she heard the news, Pei Yao's first reaction was Xiao Di.
After all, in the palace of the King of Chu in Beijing, there is only one serious master, and although Mr. Yiyuan is said to be his subordinate, not everyone in such a market is qualified to make him sick.
However, for the only person in this mansion who is qualified to treat him, Mr. Yiyuan is very worried at the moment.
He frantically lifted his hat and threw it on the table, revealing a face with scars spreading. In the mottled darkness of terror, the clear one-eyed boss stared at Xiao Di tightly, as if he was about to burst into flames.
Xiao Di half leaned on the couch, pinched the corners of his eyes, opened and closed his pale lips slightly, and persuaded: "Sir, don't be angry." ”
Mr. One Yuan was even more angry.
He gritted his back molars and slowly grinded out a sentence: "Lord Wang, you are not dying!" ”
Instant Rain nodded on the side and agreed: "That's it!" ”
Xiao Di glanced at her lightly, "What is." ”
Instant Yu pursed his lips aggrievedly, and only complained to Mr. Yuan: "Sir, it is best for you to look at Your Highness every inch for twelve hours in the future!" Save him from being out of your control for a while, and then he will harm himself in a different way! ”
Only once was the blood released, Xiao Di's vitality has not recovered at this time, and he has no heart to propose rules to her. Mr. Yiyuan stared at him for a long time, but finally sighed, turned around and sent the instant rain out to decoction, and stood in front of him with his hands crossed.
In the past six months, he has become more and more unpleasant.
In the past few years, once a month or two, putting blood back is nothing to this young man with strong blood, and Mr. Yiyuan didn't care much. But in the past six months, he has to come back like this every less than ten days, and the more he doesn't get anything, the more persistent and crazy he becomes.
It wasn't until this time that the blood-cutting sacrificial sword almost turned into a life-giving sacrificial sword, and Mr. Yiyuan realized the stakes in it.
But he vaguely felt that it might be too late.
Taking a deep breath, he angrily accused Xiao Di: "My subordinates were shocked to hear that His Highness fainted in front of the palace gate, and rushed back all the way - I knew that you had lost too much blood again, why should I?" Just call Chaoyang and Instant Rain to feed you a few more Ning Cui Pills! ”
Xiao Di smiled, "I made a note of it, and next time I will have a decent serious illness in the field, and then Mr. Labor." ”
Mr. Yiyuan copied the hat and buckled it on the top of his head angrily, not wanting to see him.
Xiao Di stepped on his boots, and when he stood up, his body shook unsteadily, Mr. Yiyuan was so worried that he was about to reach over with one hand to help, but he raised his other hand and slapped himself fiercely.
As unremembered as he was, he secretly slandered himself.
Taking in this scene, Xiao Di smiled, didn't say anything, and walked over to pick up the sword on the shelf.
At the sight of the sword, Mr. Yiyuan frowned uneasily.
"Your Highness, why should you?" He said, "It's been almost half a year, and no matter how much blood you bleed, this sword doesn't react - it's just an ordinary sword now, and you just assume that it won't react anymore!" You ......"
"Sir."
Xiao Di said lightly, interrupting Mr. Yiyuan's later words.
He turned around, a smile on his lips, but his eyes were as silent as a pool of stagnant water. He said, "Sir, don't say any more, this king is not a person who listens to persuasion. ”
Behind the black veil on his face, Mr. Yiyuan opened his mouth dryly.
He actually wanted to ask Xiao Di very reluctantly, what if even if you drained the blood sacrifice of your whole body, this sword did not react?
But he didn't dare ask.
His Royal Highness the King of Chu is indeed not a person who listens to persuasion, let alone a person who will change his mind for a 'if'.
In the end, he could only hate to leave him two bottles of Ning Cui Dan and go back to sulk to himself.
In the afternoon of the next day, after inquiring about Xiang Tao's absence in the mansion, Pei Yao summoned Chao Rong and went to Nanyuan with him.
On the way, thinking that Shicai was in the courtyard, seeing that he and Su Qingchen were chatting very happily, Pei Yao couldn't help but ask curiously, only saying that he was still interested in medical skills, how could he talk to a little girl casually?
Chao Rong looked at her strangely, didn't speak for a while, and then playfully said: "Is the old man likable!" Didn't you little girl talk to me well? ”
Pei Yao smiled, and only then did he want to remind him to keep his mouth shut, don't say the wrong thing, and show his whereabouts, he saw him glance at the sachet on his waist, and said for no reason: "Your sachet is good, the old man likes it." ”
She raised an eyebrow and paused, but didn't mention what she wanted to say.
Seeing Mrs. Huan, she greeted her according to the courtesy, said a few words, and said, she forgot yesterday, but today she has brought the gardener, and the day is just right outside, please go to the courtyard with her mother.
Chao Rong was squatting in the south corner of the courtyard and playing with two dead branches that had not sprouted, and he got up lazily when he heard the sound, but the moment he saw Mrs. Huan, he fixed his gaze.
Pei Yaowei made an introduction from the side, Mrs. Huan has always been lenient and polite to her subordinates, even if the gardener's gaze was too rude, which made her feel a little afraid for no reason, she still asked him in a gentle tone, asking him if these few dead branches could be saved.
"It's just that it can't be saved, just replace it with a new one, will Madame still feel sorry for this ruined and useless old thing?"
He said this very politely, and with a mockery for no reason, Mrs. Huan was stunned.
Fortunately, Juan Niang and the others were all left in the house, Pei Yao coughed and said a warning: "Old man, don't be rude to Madame!" ”
Chao Rong raised his eyes to look at her.
But Mrs. Huan was embarrassed, but she even said that she was not in the way, it was her own negligence, and she seemed to be mean when she asked about this withered thing.
"There are two jade platform marigolds under the corridor, the girls have not been serving well these days, they are all a little wilted, Lao Lao will take a look."
Facing Pei Yao's vigilant eyes, Chao Rong snorted, didn't say anything, and went straight down the corridor.
"Mother, don't be surprised, this person's skills are excellent, and anyone who has a little skill and ability has a bit of a strange temperament." Pei Yaowei gently took her hand and comforted: "He didn't mean to rush at you. ”
Mrs. Huan forced a smile and didn't say anything.
It's just that the man's merciless words made her take her heart to heart, and she tasted it again and again, and then locked her eyebrows.
"What's the matter with you?" On the way back, Pei Yao pretended to be angry and asked, "Didn't you say that you should be a good person and not cause trouble for me?" I ask you to take care of the two flowers, how can I spare you such a statement? Fortunately, my mother doesn't care! ”
Chao Rong listened to her words, as if he hadn't heard anything, snorted twice, and suddenly asked, "Girl, how old are you this year?" ”
"After my birthday, I will be eighteen."
"What is your birthday?"
"What do you do? Give me an order? Or do you want to be a matchmaker for me? She said casually: "Save it, I've already promised someone!" ”
Chao Rong didn't answer her words, and only insisted on asking her birthday, Pei Yao was embarrassed for a while, and then reluctantly gave it.
Chao Rong Shen pinched his fingers and calculated, frowned, the straight way was wrong.
"What's wrong?" Pei Yao glanced at him secretly, as if she didn't care much, "My own birth date, is it possible that you know better than me?" Joke! ”
Chao Rong looked at her twice without saying anything, glanced around, and saw that those maids were far away, so he whispered to her: "I can tell you, little girl, maybe you are really a joke!" ”
His tone was solemn and serious, but it was this word, Pei Yao almost burst out laughing when he heard it.
She sighed, "Senior, I invite you into the mansion and treat you with good food and drink, and you still curse, so I can't say it!" ”
Chao Rong was stunned for a moment, and was a little anxious: "Who scolded you!" The old man is talking about your birthday! ”
She asked, "What happened to my birthday?" ”
He blurted out that he was about to speak, but he didn't know what suddenly came to mind, as soon as his mouth closed, and when he spoke again, the words were different: "This...... I can't tell you now, when you fulfill the old man's wish, the old man may still be willing to talk to you in detail! ”
As if she was afraid that her secret was not tempting enough, he said sneakily: "Very serious, very serious inside information!" ”
Pei Yao glanced at him, snorted, and nodded cooperatively.
While the two were talking, they returned to the courtyard, but they saw Xiangyao standing in the courtyard angrily, and when they saw her coming back, they shouted 'Xiangyao' and rushed straight over.
