The maidservant who had been hanging her head slightly was very knowledgeable, and hurriedly took out two pouches, handed the pink one to Yao Qi, and the blue one to Han Changdu.

King An was obviously in a good mood, and said with a smile: "There is Lao Shizi and the girl who have gone on this trip, this little heart, please don't dislike the prince and the girl." ”

Han Changwan and Yao Qi hurriedly saluted and thanked each other, and looked at each other silently when they lowered their heads.

Yao Qi lowered his eyes and glanced at the blue one that was obviously better than the pink drum.

She quietly pinched the not so bulging bag, in fact, it was a lot, and it was enough to see that there were twenty taels, which was enough for ordinary people's expenses for several years.

She was immediately satisfied, and planned to go to the West Market to buy the dagger she had seen before, and she had been thinking about it for a long time, but she had saved enough money.

After diagnosing the pulse, Han Changdui did not refuse the gift money that was sent out, and before he had time to come up with other moths, King An sent the plague god to the two of them busily.

King An watched the carriage swaying away with a smile, the smile on his face slowly solidified, he sighed quietly, turned around and walked towards the mansion, whispering as he walked: "The pulse of the county lord, can't you be diagnosed?" ”

The maid who had been keeping her head down slowly raised her head and smiled lowly, completely without the humility and respect of being a maidservant: "If the diagnosis is not diagnosed, hasn't the prince himself seen the result?" If they had been diagnosed, how could these two have left so easily? ”

King An's eyes flashed with a faint annoyance, but his face was still as calm as before, and he nodded silently: "This king is just worried about being noticed, after all, there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world." ”

The servant girl smiled leisurely and contemptuously: "Lord, the method of covering up the pulse is the original of the servant, and it was only passed on to the maidservant's apprentice, but the servant's apprentice has long since died, and the prince still has nothing to worry about." ”

King An was silent, he always felt that this matter was not so easy, but this person was so sure, he couldn't say anything more, so he nodded and said, "Take care of the county lord, don't let her notice." ”

The servant girl asked with a smile: "The servant is still not at ease?" ”

Wang An's face was pale, and he was about to get angry, but thinking of the origin of this person in front of him, he could only suffer a dumb loss, and he couldn't say anything about his suffering.

With a "snap", he threw down his sleeves in anger and turned to leave.

The maidservant stared at King An's distant back, smiled lightly, and walked towards Lord Rong's boudoir.

The front yard was empty, and the sparse sunlight was falling, adding to the loneliness.

The black shadow on the layers of gray tiles curled up for a long time, and suddenly moved, facing the sunlight and going away.

The black image is a bird, silently fluttering, flying across the blue sky.

At the bend of the winding alley with few people, the wall of the square cast a large shadow on the ground, and a carriage with the insignia of the internal guard department stopped in the shadow.

The black shadow quickly landed beside the carriage, stepped on the wheels and got into the car, took off the narrow suit, changed into a scarlet official uniform, and whispered while tying the belt: "You are right, the servant girl and King An are really wrong." ”

This black shadow is Han Changdu, who has gone and returned, he slowly said the scene he saw lying on the roof just now, twisted the fish bag around his waist and said, "Now you can say it, what has been diagnosed?" Why do you have to let me go and come back? ”

Yao Qi leaned against the wall of the car, swayed with the carriage, grabbed a handful of spiced melon seeds in his hand, only peeled them and did not eat them, and a small pile of peeled melon seeds had been piled up in the small white porcelain plate on the side, all of them were complete and slightly yellow, and the aroma was fragrant.

She ate the melon seeds in one bite, patted the dregs on her hands, closed her eyes slightly with satisfaction, and said casually: "Lord Rong is pregnant." ”

"What?" Han Changdui exclaimed in a very low voice, his hand shook, and the fish bag was almost removed by him, he was stunned, and the expression on his face was extremely ugly: "I'm pregnant, are you sure?" ”

Yao Ji glanced at Han Changdui and said casually: "If you don't believe it, you can go to check the pulse by yourself." ”

Han Changdui choked, exhaled and inhaled a few times, and smiled a little angrily: "Speak well." ”

Yao Qiwan, in fact, didn't really want to be angry with Han Changdu, and sighed with a chuckle: "She is indeed pregnant, and she has been three months old." ”

Han Changwan squinted his eyes and said, "That's weird, Wang An knows that you are sent by a saint, why don't you hide this matter, don't they all know about it?" ”

Yao Qi glared: "It's strange to be a father, but it's rare to be a girl." A gleam flashed in her eyes: "But judging from the scene that the adults saw just now, the father knows about this matter, but the girl doesn't know about it." ”

Han Changdui asked puzzledly: "What was the situation at that time, you can tell me carefully." ”

Yao Ji leaned softly against the wall of the car, without any beautiful demeanor, and said with his eyes closed: "Lord Rong's pregnant pulse has been covered up with medicine, and the general Fengyu came to diagnose the pulse, but she can only diagnose her qi and blood deficiency, palpitations, and prescribe some medicine to warm and condense the mind." ”

Han Changwan straightened up and said with a solemn face: "Yes, I just heard the maid say to King An that the method of covering up the pulse was her original and only passed on to her apprentice, so, Ah Qi, how did you know that there was a medicine that could cover the pulse, and how did you notice that the pulse of Lord Rong was different." ”

Yao Qi didn't answer Han Changdu's words, he suddenly opened his eyes and asked eagerly, "What does the maidservant look like, did she mention anyone else?" ”

Han Changdui said solemnly: "That maid looks like she is in her forties, she is not young, she looks like the housekeeper lady in King An's mansion, her appearance is ordinary, but she has a pair of triangular hanging eyes, which looks cloudy." ”

"Those eyes, don't they look like poisonous snakes?" Without waiting for Han Changdui to finish speaking, Yao Qi suddenly straightened up and said.

Han Changdui nodded heavily.

Yao Qi's face was not very good-looking, leaned against the wall of the car and took a deep breath, and he was quiet for a long time before he said: "My lord just asked the lowly position, how did the lowly position know that the medicine can cover the pulse, and how did he notice that the pulse of the lord of Rongjun was different, and this is a long way to say." ”

Han Changwan poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yao Qi, inadvertently touched her hand, and found that her hand was very cold, faintly shivering, he was stunned for a moment, and said gently: "You speak slowly." ”

Yao Qi took a sip of tea, eased up, and said calmly: "There is a kind of person in this world who is born with a black heart, black and black, and he can't see his five fingers even more than the fifth watch. She paused for a moment, seemed to fall into a very deep memory, looked stunned, and continued in an ethereal voice: "There is a crazy woman who brushes the toilet in the court, deaf, dumb and crazy, she brushes the toilet day and night, from morning to night, but she eats the remaining swill, and she can't even wear a thick jacket in the cold days. No one said clearly when she entered the court, and no one said clearly which family she was. She closed her eyes slightly, recalling the days in the court, obviously tortured, she calmed down for a while before saying: "But she is not crazy, although she is deaf and dumb, but she writes a good hand, she died in the summer, when she has been sick for a long time, she feels that she can't stay up, and at night she gave me a torn jacket, and then found that the weight of the jacket is wrong, open it and see, there is a medical book in it, which is handwritten by her, and the book remembers that there is a way to cover up the pulse." ”

Although this statement clearly explained how Yao Qi learned about this method, it concealed her past with the crazy woman, Han Changdui was obviously dissatisfied, he coughed lightly, and continued to ask: "Everyone else says she is crazy, so how did you get to know her." ”

Yao Qi closed his eyes: "Do you have to get to the bottom of it?" ”

Han Changwan nodded: "This matter is very important. ”

Yao Qi's voice trembled slightly, and he reluctantly said calmly: "The year I first entered the court, I went to the well to carry water and wash clothes in winter, I don't know who sprinkled a circle of water on the side of the well, and a layer of frozen knots was solid overnight. Her eyes were misty, as if she had seen something that had already flashed by: "The madwoman happened to come to pick up water and brush the toilet, and at once she grabbed me by the ankle and dragged me up and threw me on the ground." ”

She breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "She kept brushing the toilet day and night, and when she was sleepy and tired, she slept by the toilet, and then there were more and more toilets, and the yard where I lived was big, so I moved the toilet to my yard to brush, and when she brushed the toilet at night, I lay in the house and talked to her through the window, she was deaf and dumb, and never responded. ”

Yao Qi's heart was sour, and he closed his eyes tightly, so that the tears that were condensed at the bottom of his eyes flowed back to his heart: "Maybe it's because of this, after I knew her for two years, she left me with the broken jacket, and I left the court with the medical book and entered the Beiya Forbidden Army." ”

Han Changwan asked, "Since she has never spoken to you, how do you know what her master looks like?" ”

Yao Qi said: "There is a small portrait in the mezzanine of that medical book, which is exactly the same as the appearance of the maid you described, and the word Shizun is written next to it, and the handwriting is exactly the handwriting on the medical book. ”

Han Changdui said: "Then did you find out her origin later?" ”

Yao Qi had calmed down, nodded and said, "I checked it, but I found nothing, she is like a person who was born to be in the court, no one knows how she came here." ”

Han Changwan frowned: "How old was she at that time. ”

Yao Qi smiled bitterly: "She has suffered a lot, when I met her, she was already goosebumps, old as a candle in the wind, but if that servant girl is really her master, and now she is only about forty years, then she must not be so old." ”
