Chapter 89
At the right moment, Yinhua' came to report the news, and the father-in-law who came to pick up Xiangru was waiting at the 'door', Xiangru took a few deep breaths, patted her 'chest' and told herself to be calm, and then she stepped out of the 'door' to go downstairs with Yin'hua', and Xiaoxia's doctor sent her behind.
The two fathers-in-law who came to pick up Xiangru were two very young little eunuchs, looking at their clothes, they knew that they were doing chores underneath, and the two sides met at the "door" of the "female" hospital and saluted, they led Xiangru out of the "door" of the hospital, and walked a section of the palace road to the palace "door".
The little eunuch invited Xiangru to get into the carriage, and they drove in front, and after a while the carriage shook slightly, and the carriage was slowly moving forward.
The palace is very large, so that the doctors who live in the periphery of the palace walk in and out every time it is too time-consuming, so it can also be known that the life range of the people in the palace is very small, that is, they turn around within the scope of their own identity and authority, and they can't go too far.
It's a boring lifestyle, but luckily I don't have to live like this anymore.
The car window is "covered" with a screen window, which is transparent and breathable, but unfortunately there is no good scenery outside the car, and it is always a palace wall of "color", and there is a hypnotic effect after staring at it for a long time.
Xiangru shook her head and closed her eyes to recuperate.
The carriage swayed and walked for a long time, Xiangru took a nap and woke up before the carriage stopped, I don't know if she didn't sleep for long or if the palace was too big to imagine.
Looking out the window, he was still walking on the palace road, and there was no one around, so Xiangru boldly lifted the curtain to talk to the little eunuch who was driving.
"The two fathers-in-law have worked hard, I don't know where we are now? How far is it from the queen's bedchamber? I'm a little nervous, I'm afraid that I won't be able to speak and bump into my mother, if the two fathers-in-law are okay, can you give me some advice? Xiangru said as she stuffed a piece of broken silver into each of the two eunuchs' palms.
The two eunuchs calmly put the silver in their arms, one continued to drive, and the other talked to Xiangru with a smile.
"Now, it's the right time for you to ask this, if you don't ask, you'll definitely make a fool of yourself. It's not just the queen mother who wants to see you today, but also the imperial concubine, the concubine and all the concubines below, all of whom want to see you. ”
"Yikes! There are so many people?! So what should I do then? Xiangru guessed that it was not summoned alone, but she didn't expect that there would be so many people, and she panicked for a while.
"Be calm, first of all, you have to be calm, don't recognize the wrong person, don't recognize the imperial concubine as the queen, and kill your head on the spot."
"No, no, no, the queen summoned me, the one sitting on the throne must be the queen, the imperial concubine has to sit down, I will enter the 'door' and kowtow to the person sitting on the seat to say goodbye, where will I recognize the wrong person." Xiangru didn't dare to hold her head and swagger to recognize the wrong person.
"Well, it's good to know, it's to kowtow to the upper seat. In addition, you know one more person, she is the queen's personal maid 'girl' called Ji Yue, with a long goose egg face, and two dimples when she smiles, and she is the only one in the mother's house who has dimples, so she can recognize it tightly. Your scenery today, all the mothers want to see you, and in the future, they will definitely call you to serve often, the queen has *** to take care of, although you don't need you, but if you find an opportunity to have a good relationship with Jiyue, you will not be afraid of being bullied in the future. Got it? ”
"I understand, I understand, the status of the doctor is low, and it will be better for someone to take care of her in the future." If you want to hug the queen's big 'legs', you have to get Ji Yue first, Xiangru understands.
"Well, you are really smart, you deserve to be the top in the exam, I heard that there has been no excellent grade in the medical woman exam for many years, no wonder the queen summoned you today."
"This is thanks to God's grace, if it weren't for the emperor's grace, the would-be imperial doctor would take over the education of the doctor's apprentice, and I wouldn't be where I am today."
"The mouth is so sweet, you can speak, okay, you just keep it like this, smile on your face, be happy, take out some 'essence' spirit, don't be too flattering, just be respectful, speak better and be fine today." Niangniang just wants to see you and say a few words, she won't stay with you for too long, you are so nervous that you sweat all over your body and have to grit your teeth and do nothing. ”
"Understood, thank you for your advice."
"Come in and sit down, we're going to enter the official 'door', don't come out without a curtain for you." The little eunuch who was driving suddenly sounded, and reined in his horse a little, slowing down the car.
Xiangru stopped talking about new topics, and quickly retracted into the carriage and sat honestly.
Looking out of the car window, this palace 'door' is relatively large, it should be a palace 'door' with a heavier status, but after this 'door', the outside scenery 'color' still has no change, how the car turns is a 'color' palace wall that makes people visually tired, and when it turns another corner to a straight corner road, Xiangru intuition This road should be the main road leading to the queen's bedroom.
After getting on this road, the speed of the car increased significantly, and after running for a while, it slowly slowed down, and finally slowly stopped.
The carriage suddenly lit up, and the little eunuch who had been driving before raised a curtain from outside to beckon Xiangru to get out of the car, and a wooden bench had been set up under the car, and Xiangru stood firmly on the ground with the support of others.
After getting out of the car, Xiangru hurriedly tidied up her appearance, looked around by the way, and found herself standing in front of a small 'door', and there were already two strange little eunuchs waiting for her in the 'door' room.
In line with the purpose of not surprising many people, Xiangru saluted the two little eunuchs in the 'gate' room, and then crossed the 'gate' threshold under their guidance and officially entered the courtyard of the queen's bedroom.
The little eunuch in the 'door' room only took Xiangru into the 'door', and then 'handed over' her to two little girls, who were responsible for taking Xiangru to the queen's palace.
So Xiangru saluted again, and the elder sister was long and the elder sister was short.
The two little girls returned the salute, 'handed over' some precautions, and then turned around and walked in front, leading Xiangru up the verandah all the way to the main hall of the dormitory.
Xiangru followed behind without squinting, but the corner of her eyes was looking at the scenery she had seen along the way, and finally saw some different colors from the palace walls, and anyone would instinctively let their eyes rest.
Now halfway through the winter and about to enter the coldest period of the year, the 'flower' trees should be withering, but there are a large number of winter potted 'flower' flowers growing vigorously in this dormitory, which has weakened a lot of the feeling of winter gloom.
Circling around the verandah, after crossing the moon 'gate' and entering the courtyard of the main hall, Xiangru was moved here and 'handed over' to the girl who was on an errand here, and they led her to the bottom of the steps of the main hall.
Taking advantage of this short time, Xiangru tidied up her appearance again, 'touched' and 'touched' her hair to fix her collar, and patted the skirt of her skirt.
I just 'got it' myself from head to toe, and the person who reported it came out to spread the word to Xiangru to meet me.
Xiangru is like an athlete preparing for a competition in the gymnastics arena, with a serious face when waiting on the sidelines, as soon as she heard the referee's order, she immediately smiled, and all her 'spirit' energy was mobilized in place, and she lifted her skirt lightly and walked up the steps, and stepped over the 'door' sill to enter the room with a felt curtain.
The hall was as warm as 'spring', and as soon as Xiangru came in, the cold air around her body that was dyed outdoors was 'forced' by the heating in the house, and she felt like she was really sweating.
Warmth can make people 'spirit' relaxed, but Xiangru didn't dare to relax at all, because the room was overcrowded, and the huge hall was filled with all kinds of 'women' in all kinds of clothes.
With so many pairs of eyes staring at herself, Xiangru only wants everything to go well this time, how dare she ask for anything else.
On the front of the hall carved 'flower' inlaid throne sits a graceful and luxurious beauty in gorgeous clothes, wearing a beaded hairpin on her head, and her clothes are embroidered with the ultimate 'fine' beauty 'flower' pattern, describing the dignified eyebrows and eyes are beautiful, and the corners of her mouth contain a shallow gentle smile.
Look at the 'waiter' standing next to the throne of the 'waiter' and 'woman', the goose egg face is long and has dimples on the face, it must be the queen's personal maid 'girl' Ji Yue, Ji Yue is here, don't think about it, the one sitting on the throne must be the queen, and she will not recognize the wrong person.
A little girl came out of a corner, put down a yellow 'color' in the middle of the hall, and then retreated, Xiangru fixed her body and stepped forward steadily, and came to the front of *** kneeling down on her knees and bowing to the ground.
"The maid He Xiangru knocked to see the queen, the mother is a thousand years old."
"Flat." The gentle voice is soft and comfortable.
"Xie Niangniang." Xiangru got up from the ground and stood with her head bowed.
"Raise your head and show you, we finally have another excellent doctor in our palace, and she is still a food doctor, so it will be more convenient for everyone in the future." The queen continued.
Xiangru raised her head as she said, and slowly turned around from side to side, so that the concubines around her could see themselves clearly, and she also recognized the concubines by the way.
There is a beautiful woman sitting at the head of the queen's right hand, judging from the beads and costumes on her head, it must be the Miao Emperor concubine, just looking at that face is much more beautiful than the queen, and the extravagance around her can't stop it, but why the emperor didn't choose her to be the queen is unknown.
Xiangru turned around to make a blessing ceremony, "Servant He Xiangru, please be safe and blessed." ”
"This girl is 'spirited' and 'good', I like this, she looks happy."
"The temperament is good, clean, and the person is stable and not frivolous, and it is strange that such a person is raised in the place of the 'female' medical hall."
"Why don't you get an excellent grade for this girl, I haven't had an excellent grade for many years, and this year I finally got one, 'very' lucky."
"The 'female' medical hall is too closed, and the level of the doctors and wives is not as good as the generation, but fortunately, this year, the emperor is gracious, and the quasi-imperial doctor takes over, which is really unexpected, and the effect can be seen in a year, and it has made a good start, and there is such a girl."
The concubines had a heated discussion, and they all said good things, but Xiangru didn't hear it, and she didn't dare to have the slightest smug 'color' on her face, so she only blindly maintained modesty and deference.
"Hey, girl, let me ask you, why do you want to study food medicine instead of disease medicine?" The concubine in the Chinese costume, who was sitting on the second hand of the queen, suddenly asked.
As soon as the concubine asked, everyone's on-site discussion stopped, and the room was quiet, waiting for Xiangru's answer.
At this time, the maid behind the concubine introduced to Xiangru softly: "This is Concubine Liu. ”
"Back to the concubine's words, it was the maid's master who decided, she took the maid out of the kitchen, and couldn't bear to waste the maid's cooking work, just this year there was this opportunity, so she decided to let the maid learn food and medicine homework." Xiangru replied respectfully according to the correspondence that she had set up with the envoy yesterday.
"Oh? So you're from the kitchen? It's even rarer. ”
"Who is your master? How did she find you in the kitchen? Liu Guifei continued to ask.
"The master's master is Xie Lingzhi, and she has gone home on the winter solstice this year. At the beginning, the aunt of the former head of the 'female' medical center was sick and sick in the 'bed' and did not think about eating, so Dr. Xie brought a few dietary therapy recipes for the kitchen to make, and the maid did the best, so the kitchen arranged the maid to be responsible for the aunt's diet. Afterwards, Mrs. Xie felt that the maid was a manufacturable material, so she asked her aunt to go to the 'medicine' room. ”
"Oh, this is really providential, if someone didn't get sick first, and you didn't have a chance to perform, you wouldn't have been favored by the doctor, and there wouldn't have been such a happy event today, hehe, it's really providential." A nice laugh floated from behind Xiangru.
"Yes, yes, it's really providential, God calculates it well, you should get ahead, no one can change it." Many people agreed with the concubine's words just now.
"It's 'good' for the girl's family to learn food medicine, and she can take good care of her family when she goes home to marry in the future, and even helps the family, unlike a girl who studies disease medicine, after getting married and having children, she is only busy with housework, and she will waste her business for a long time, which is a pity." There are also concubines who express such feelings.
"But no, if the disease doctor misdiagnoses a bad thing, the food doctor doesn't have this worry, and the rich people outside who don't often find the food doctor to prescribe some prescriptions to regulate the body, this work that is often in the hands of the person is difficult to waste."
"Look at your joy, this girl has won your eyes, and she is boasting of 'flowers'. Okay, come here, the girl is here today, so that everyone will be happy and rewarded. An unfamiliar voice floated from the left behind him.
Xiangru hurriedly turned around and looked, but saw that it was the imperial concubine who was at the bottom of the queen's right.
As if to confirm her guess, the girl next to the lady introduced it in a timely manner, "This is Emperor Miao's concubine." ”
Xiangru saluted again, "The maid invites the imperial concubine Niangniang, Niangniang Wanfu." ”
When she stood up straight after the salute, Xiangru happened to see the girl behind the imperial concubine 'touching' a red 'color' reward seal from her arms, and at the same time, there was a laugh all around, and the concubines echoed one after another, "Yes, yes, yes, should be rewarded." ”
Two little girls came from the wall, each holding a lacquer plate in their hands and came to the left and right of the girls, and the girls behind them put a reward on the lacquer plate.
After receiving the reward seal, the two little girls went to the side to gather the two lacquer plates of the reward and put them all into a brocade bag, and then took it to Xiangru, Xiangru hurriedly turned around to thank the reward, thank the ladies for the reward, and finally took the brocade bag full of reward bags with both hands.
"Xiangru." The queen called again.
"The maid is here, what do you command?"
"Now that you have been admitted to the doctor's examination, is there any arrangement for you from the internal affairs supervisor?"
"Back to my mother's words, the internal affairs supervisor has already sent someone to pass the word this morning, and I will go to restudy the palace rules for half a month tomorrow."
"Well, that's the old rule of the Interior Inspector. Okay, it's none of your business, kneel down, go back and rest early, and nourish your 'spirit'. ”
"Yes, mother, the servant is leaving. The queen's mother, all the mothers, are blessed with Jin'an. Xiangru knelt down again and kowtowed, holding her brocade bag in both hands and slowly retreating to the 'door' before turning to go out
Entering the 'Door'
