Chapter Forty-Eight: Medicine Boy Ji Nanjing
Bai Yanqing hadn't mentioned it to the Ji family before, and the third prince intended to marry her, but at that time, everyone didn't take this matter to heart.
In the final analysis, what kind of style the three princes are, who doesn't know who doesn't know? He has always been a person who wants to play one out and one out, has no long-term plan, and has no clear goals. Maybe he wanted to marry Bai Yanqing at that time, and in a few days, he wanted to marry the woman of the family next to him? Therefore, at that time, no one considered this matter as a serious matter!
Who knows, this time, the three princes are actually serious! He really ran to the emperor and begged to marry the daughter of the Bai family, not only that, but also sent Bai Jingxuan back to the Prime Minister's Mansion with great fanfare, which alarmed the famous families in the entire capital! This kind of behavior shows that this third prince is really serious this time!
The third prince made such a big move, how could he hide it from the Ji family? Or perhaps, he didn't intend to hide it from anyone at all!
General Ji Lao was the first to receive the news, and then he hurriedly sent someone to inform Ji Jinxiu and Ji Nanjing, father and son. Then the Ji family held an emergency meeting on whether Bai Yanqing wanted to marry the third prince! In the end, they brainstormed and came to the final conclusion: everything depends on Bai Yanqing's intentions!
Then Ji family, what does this mean? This means that the Ji family, as Bai Yanqing's strongest backing, supports Bai Yanqing's decision, if she wants to marry, they will send her to the palace with the most noble specifications for the daughter of the family to marry! If she doesn't want to marry, then their Ji family will not hesitate to use the strength of the whole clan to compete with the three princes and the imperial power!
Of course, they didn't dare to say this in front of Bai Yanqing, they were also afraid that Bai Yanqing's stubborn temper would come up, and in order to protect the Ji family, they wronged themselves to marry the third prince! Therefore, the Ji family, this is why Ji Nanjing, a pawn, was sent to Baifu to explore Bai Yanqing's mouth!
"Why are you doing this again? Ever since you returned to Baifu, this body hasn't gotten better! Either I'm sick today, or I'm sick tomorrow, in my opinion, you might as well be on Zhuangzi! At least at that time, you will be safe and healthy, and you will not let your grandfather and father break your heart for you day and night like you do now!"
Ji Nanjing looked at Bai Yanqing's sick appearance, and he didn't get angry!
A few years ago, Bai Yanqing lived in Zhuangzi with Caixing, although life was more difficult, but with the secret help of the Ji family, she was more comfortable after all, and it was not like now, if you have a minor illness or a major illness in three days, you can ask a doctor at every turn!
Originally, tonight, Ji Nanjing planned to sneak into Baifu in the middle of the night, but he happened to meet Mama Zhao who went out of the mansion to ask for a doctor, so he made this decision, gave the old doctor some silver taels, pretended to be an accompanying medicine boy, and entered Baifu together.
Seeing Bai Yanqing with her eyes confined on the bed, Ji Nanjing's first reaction was distress, and the second reaction was to worry about her, so he did such a stupid thing as stretching out his finger to probe his nose.
"Miss is sick like this, it's not the three princes who are harmed!"
Bai Yanqing vomited all night, and was already weak and didn't want to speak. It was also thanks to Caixing that he knew the inside story, so he told Ji Nanjing what happened during the day.
Since Bai Yanqing has done this, it is self-evident what she thinks.
"In this case, we know Yan Qing's thoughts, it's just ...... This matter involves the three princes, we need to be more cautious, if there is any sudden situation on the way, you need to notify the Ji family in time! Let's get ready!"
Ji Nanjing said a few ambiguous words, but Cai Xing didn't hear anything, but Bai Yanqing on the bed heard some side meanings.
"Whether I agree to marry the third prince or not, I only ask Brother Jing to promise me one thing."
Bai Yanqing sat up and said weakly.
"You say!"
When Ji Nanjing saw her like this, he was distressed, and stepped forward to help her steady.
"Brother Qiu Jing appeases my grandfather and uncle for me, don't let this matter implicate the Ji family. Ji Jia...... Enough has been done for me! I don't want to get into trouble with them anymore! Over the years, thanks to the mercy of his grandfather and uncle, Yan Qing was able to grow up safely and healthily, Yan Qingming was deeply moved. The road ahead, how to go, Yan Qing has his own plans!"
Bai Yanqing tightened
Grabbing Ji Nanjing's arm, his eyes were full of begging.
Seeing her like this, Ji Nanjing didn't dare to tell her father and grandfather's plans clearly, so she had to nod solemnly, like Bai Yanqing promised that she would not let the Ji family be implicated!
It's just that what Bai Yanqing probably doesn't know is that from the moment she was born, she was inseparable from the safety of the Ji family. Even if the Bai family has now broken off contact with the Ji family, half of the blood on her Bai Yanqing body belongs to the Ji family! This layer of blood can't be cut!
The doctor also said that Bai Yanqing was fine, but she was supported by eating, and she was already weaker than ordinary people, so she had such a big reaction. Take a few patches of decoction to strengthen the spleen and eliminate appetite, and there will be no major problem.
Hearing the doctor say that Bai Yanqing was fine, Ji Nanjing was relieved. If he should have brought it, he also brought it, and the person who should have been probed also saw it, and Ji Nanjing went back to pay the errand. Otherwise, the two old men in his family who were looking forward to waiting for him to return home were afraid that they would not be able to sleep well.
"Miss has a weak spleen and stomach, so she should pay attention to her diet on weekdays and eat less cold things."
Before leaving, the doctor gave another word of advice, after all, he received so much silver from Ji Nanjing, and he still wanted to make a show.
Cai Xing wrote down the doctor's words one by one, and then asked Mama Zhao to follow the doctor to grab the medicine overnight, come back and boil it up, and let her take it before Bai Yanqing went to bed.
Fortunately, everything that should have been vomited was vomited clean, and Bai Yanqing had no other discomfort except for stomach pain. It's just that after tossing for most of the day, Bai Yanqing felt a little tired, and after taking the medicine, he lay down.
Cai Xing was worried about Bai Yanqing and was afraid that she would have another situation at night, so he moved a soft collapse and put it in front of Bai Yanqing's bed, until she fell asleep, and Cai Xing lay down with peace of mind.
In the middle of the night, the entire White Mansion fell into a deep sleep.
At that time, a figure, through the meager moonlight, quietly sneaked into Nianchu Xiaozhu.
Maybe she was really tired, Bai Yanqing tonight slept very deeply, and she didn't notice that someone was approaching.
The visitor looked at Bai Yanqing on the bed, couldn't help but step forward, got closer, raised his hand and stroked her tightly knit brow. As if she had a bad dream, Bai Yanqing on the bed, her body trembled slightly, and her bare hands clutched the quilt on her chest tightly, as if she was struggling.
Seeing this, the person who came bent down, stretched out his hand, and patted Bai Yanqing gently like a child. After a while, she miraculously quieted down, her clasped hands gradually loosened, her tightly locked brows gradually smoothed out, and her slightly trembling body slowly calmed down.
Sensing the state of the little woman on the bed, it seemed to be stable, and the person who came secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he took out a boxy envelope from his arms, and then gently rested it on Bai Yanqing's pillow. Finally, Fang turned around with some hesitation and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he was still a little reluctant, turning back three times at a time, until he left the house and could no longer see anyone on the bed, he was ruthless and jumped away.
It wasn't until there was no more movement in the room that the little woman on the bed opened her eyes slightly, looking at the dark roof, as if she was thinking about something.
"Miss ......"
Cai Xing, who was lying on the couch, noticed that the person on the bed seemed to sigh softly, confirming that Bai Yanqing was awake, and Cai Xing called her shallowly.
"What time is it?"
"Miss Fourth Watch."
Cai Xing got up from the couch, walked lightly to Bai Yanqing's bed, and said softly beside her.
"Well, go to sleep! I'll talk about it when it's dawn!"
Bai Yanqing gently patted the back of Caixing's hand and asked her to go to sleep.
Cai Xing turned around, returned to the couch and lay down, and fell asleep not long after.
Bai Yanqing reached out and touched the envelope next to the pillow, and her heart was mixed. She had already guessed that the masked man would come tonight. Therefore, she sent Mama Zhao and them to sleep early, and then instructed Caixing that no matter what movement happened at night, she must not act rashly, just pretend to sleep. If not, when that person just came in, Caixing would have jumped up and punched him!
In fact, from the moment the person entered the house, Bai Yanqing had already woken up. she
I have always had a light sleep, and even if I am tired, I can't sleep soundly and without scruples.
How could the habits that have been cultivated over the years be changed just because he returned to Baifu and lived a stable life for a few days?
The smell of smoke on the man's body tonight seemed to be heavier.
Ay......
Early the next morning.
As soon as the sky was bright, the sound of Zhao Mama and their water was heard in the courtyard. Because she slept less at night, Bai Yanqing only felt that as soon as she closed her eyes, it was dawn, and she still had a little resentment in her heart!
Caixing has always slept well, and she can fall asleep when she lies down, but Bai Yanqing can't look forward to it! Therefore, when Cai Xing woke up, he felt refreshed and unaffected by the episode in the middle of the night!
"Miss, you can sleep a little longer, it's still early!"
Caixing tidied up his clothes lightly, squatted in front of Bai Yanqing's bed, and whispered to her. Seeing Bai Yanqing closing his eyes and nodding, Cai Xing turned around and left with peace of mind!
Then, Caixing cautiously pushed open the door of the house, and after going out, he gently closed the door, for fear that the movement would be too loud and make Bai Yanqing unable to sleep steadily.
Walking into the courtyard, Caixing whispered to Mama Zhao and them, asking them to move quietly. Mama Zhao and the others also know Bai Yanqing's temperament, when she sleeps, she has always been noisy, if she can't sleep well, she has a headache all day.
"Yesterday's Huaishan millet porridge, Miss didn't drink much, let's change to red dates and white fungus soup today!"
While talking to Mama Zhao, Caixing rolled up his sleeves and prepared the ingredients by himself.
As soon as Bai Yanqing got sick, her mouth became extremely picky, so whenever Bai Yanqing was sick, Cai Xing personally cooked for her.
The doctor said that Bai Yanqing had to feed her stomach, but she didn't dare to eat some cold things for her. Cai Xing thought about it, changing tricks every day, boiling some stomach porridge for Bai Yanqing, so that she had some appetite, and if she could eat a few more bites, Cai Xing would be happy.
Tremella nourishes the stomach and can cure stomach dryness and burn. This is the most suitable for Bai Yanqing, who just vomited to the point of hurting her stomach yesterday. Red dates are warm and replenishing, and they are beneficial to qi and blood, calm the nerves, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and are also excellent for Bai Yanqing, who has poor sleep! The combination of the two makes a soup that not only nourishes the stomach, but also calms the nerves.
I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to pick a good white fungus, so Caixing asked Lian'er to go out to buy fresh white fungus early. Because of the fresh white fungus, the soup boiled out is softer and glutinous! Then put brown sugar and chopped red dates, boil for an hour over low heat, and a pot of sweet and delicious red dates and white fungus soup will be out of the pot!
When the white fungus soup is warm, Bai Yanqing can also get up!
In the end, it is Caixing who knows Bai Yanqing best, she calculates the time just right, and when her young lady gets out of bed together, she can drink warm soup!
