Chapter Twenty-Three: Laughing and Asking the Guest for the Bottom Matter
It's been the fourth day of rain, so why doesn't it stop at all? Luoyang half leaned on the head of the bed, looking at the window depressedly, the window was pasted with a new light autumn fragrance curtain, which looked soft and elegant on a sunny day, but at the moment it was called extremely old by the gloomy skylight, and the light in the room looked particularly depressing.
Luo Yan couldn't help but say in her heart: No wonder Lin Daiyu wanted to write "Autumn Window Wind and Rain", this sick person looked at the bleak scene, and his heart was not easy to feel uncomfortable - if there was glass, maybe it would be better?
This was the third day she had "fallen ill". Although she didn't really have a rash, she didn't feel much better than a rash - a high fever always can't be faked, not to mention that the pulse must also have signs of illness. Therefore, as soon as the packet of medicinal powder went the morning before, she did burn dizzily for a while, and it was not until the middle of the night that day that she slowly recovered. But the Imperial Physician Gao was still coming today, so he ate the powder again before noon. After two days of burning like this, people have lost much strength.
In the past three days, Luo Yan has not gone out for half a step, and everyone in the room has sent people to greet him this time, but Du Yuchen has sent people to come the most diligently, at least twice a day. I heard that she was sick, Yuan Min'er was cured when she was sick, and now she is tired of being in the upper room every day, even if he still has a little conscience, he didn't forget to ask himself - it seems that he didn't serve him in vain some time ago.
However, these people naturally can't enter Luo Yan's house, the people she sees the most are Qingqing and Dou'er, the two stuffy gourds, even the dzi come in less, and Xiao Meng has to take care of the more burned plums, so she doesn't even have anyone to chat with, so she has to pass the time while having a fever.
It was easy to stay up until the afternoon, the little girl named Dou'er came in on time with the boiled medicine, and when she saw that there was no one behind the house, she poured all the bowls under the root of the back window wall, and said in a low voice: "There was news just now, and the lady of Xiangguo Mansion recommended a female doctor to come." ”
Luo Yan was stunned, and then asked Qingqing: "Has the Xiangguo Mansion dealt with me in the past three years?" Qingqing shook her head. Luo Yan lowered her head and pondered: The day before yesterday, I heard Dou'er say that Xiangguofu sent people before lunch, presumably because they knew about my illness at that time, but why weren't they so enthusiastic before? Besides, what good doctor didn't recommend at the time, and only recommended it a day later?
After thinking about it, his head hurt, but he couldn't care about it so much, so he said, "Find an excuse to let Aunt Fang come in, I have something to ask her." ”
Not long after, Aunt Fang came in with a bowl of porridge, and Luo Yan asked, "Someone from the Xiangguo Mansion came to the Heavenly Mansion, can you find out what happened?" Aunt Fang nodded: "I heard that I came to invite the Du family to the family banquet, because the second master can't go to the ground yet, and you are sick again, so I gave up." Luo Yan frowned, and said half-loudly: "Xiangguo Mansion...... Aunt Fang, you can help me think about it, if someone in Dayan doesn't want me to go back, do they have enough people here in Jinling? ”
"It's hard to say in Dayan, but if it's just Jinling, it can't compare to our secret guards. However, they are powerful, whether it is to send a top-level killer or use Jinling's connections to borrow a knife to kill, it is easy. ”
Luo Yan's heart moved, and she had some conjectures about who "they" were, but at this time, she didn't have time to pursue this, and sighed and said: "It's really hard to say, but Aunt Fang, you only tell me, if you are the one who doesn't want me to go back, you are responsible for arranging this event, what will you do?" ”
Aunt Fang said without thinking: "First of all, it is natural to kill people with a knife, news always comes faster than people, as long as you release your importance to Dayan, someone in Dali will naturally stop you - that's right, if it were me, I would definitely find Gao Xiangguo!" I can't help but secretly admire in my heart, she is a veteran of the gray pigeon, and her experience and means are first-class, but after all, she is only acting on orders on weekdays, and she is not used to thinking about problems from a big perspective.
Luo Yan nodded, and said weakly, "Then think about it, if you are Gao Xiangguo, you know that I will probably be of some use to Dayan, and the second brother has already come to pick me up, if you don't want me to go back, what will you do?" ”
Aunt Fang lowered her head and thought for a while before she said: "The best thing is to let the princess return to the previous state of being at the mercy of others, medicine, acupuncture, and some magical arts, probably all of which can be done." The princess is now frail, but it is easy to take advantage of the situation. ”
Luo Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly: If you are not sick, you can't do it, it seems that you can't do it if you are sick. After thinking for a while, he said, "Is there a way to make me feel better immediately?" Aunt Fang nodded: "This is easy, a little opium will do." After thinking about it, he persuaded: "Why should the princess take risks? It's better to use that method......"
Luo Yan shook her head categorically: "No, I must not use plums to take such a risk for me." Among the four girls, she is actually the most reluctant to let Meizi follow on weekdays, for fear that she will nag the mutton, but this is not Meizi's fault, this time she is also sorry for "accompanying the sick", where can I bear to let her be plotted by others instead of herself?
Aunt Fang sighed, turned around and went out, and when she came back, she was holding a small box with a dark and dull little paste in it. Luo Yan's heart was furious, and she couldn't help asking, "What is this?" Aunt Fang comforted: "This thing is also a medicinal material, it comes from the Western Regions, it is said that it is dried from the fruit liquid of a hibiscus flower, not many people know it, just eat it slightly, and the effect is better if you mix it with smoke, but it's too late now, don't eat too much, but it's poisonous." ”
Luo Yan looked at the small box, silently and with tears in her eyes: In the crossing army and the rebirth army, can you find an unlucky person who is more tragic than her? I haven't had a good day of bullying men and women, and now I've just finished self-destructive fever powder, and then I'm going to take drugs seriously - isn't this thing an ancient opium paste!
But the matter has come to this point, but she can't help but think about what "cherish life and stay away from drugs", I saw Aunt Fang put some "opium" into the water to melt, simply closed her eyes and drank it - bitter but not very tasteful. But after a while, a tingling and warm feeling gradually rose, and the discomfort of the fever subsided for most of the time, and the mind immediately became clear. Luo Yan couldn't help but think in pieces: "Don't take an example, don't take an example!" ”
Aunt Fang told Qingqing and Dou'er on the side, if someone comes later, how should they pay attention to Yunyun, the plan has just been decided, and sure enough, a little girl came to report: "The female doctor recommended by Xiangguo's government is here." ”
Aunt Fang hurriedly went out and stood at the bottom of the steps, only to see Zheng's mother walking in with a slightly older woman, followed by a middle-aged maid carrying a medicine box, Zheng's mother's eyes couldn't help but narrow, the woman in front was just that, and the one carrying the medicine box in the back was clearly a good kung fu!
Aunt Fang glanced at Dou'er, and Dou'er followed behind Tianzhu to greet the doctor. The female doctor, who claimed to be surnamed Zhang, entered the door and looked at it slightly, then said with a smile: "There is no smell of sickness and medicine in this room, and it is very good for patients." As he walked to the back room, the maid in the back was just about to follow, but Dou'er blocked the door without a trace, and said with a smile: "The princess's disease center is not in good condition, and I don't like to see outsiders." ”
The maid was stunned, and the female doctor in front said, "My things are all carried by her, and I am afraid that I will use them then." Dou'er immediately stretched out her hand, "Shall I help this mother get it?" The maid slipped under her feet and dodged away, and was about to go inside when she raised her legs, but Qingqing had already walked over and said coldly: "It is the imperial doctor who came to see our princess, and he is also alone!" When Luo Yan heard the movement, she said loudly in a hoarse voice: "Irrelevant people go out!" ”
The lady and the maid looked at each other, and the lady said, "You wait outside, I will call you again if necessary." There was a hint of anger in the maid's eyes, and she silently stepped aside. Dou'er immediately stood beside her, and Aunt Fang was not far away.
The female doctor walked in, looked around the room first, and then slowly walked to the bed, but saw that the gauze tent was hanging low, Luo Yan only stretched out one hand and came out, and there was a handkerchief on it, so she couldn't help but smile and said: "I'm a woman, but I don't need to be like this." Qingqing said with a cold face: "Our princess likes this." Can't you watch it? ”
The female doctor was stunned for a moment, shook her head and smiled: "Obey." He looked down and thought for a while, sat down slowly, and sure enough, he got up through the gauze tent, and after a full quarter of an hour, he changed his hand again. Only then did he raise his head and smile: "The princess is not sick, she will be fine in two days." As he spoke, he stood up and turned around to leave, but Luo Yan suddenly said, "Slow." ”
The female doctor was stunned, but saw that Luo Yan had already sat up, and asked in a very soft voice: "Since you are not a doctor, are you here to poison me or to poison me?" ”
