Chapter 132: Medicine Pool
There are very few maids in the Six Princes' Mansion, because of Guan Jiyu's arrival, King Ying unprecedentedly specially found more than a dozen maidservants to serve Guan Jiyu.
After Guan Jiyu finished bathing, the maidservant next to her waited for her to change into a moon-white satin dress with a round neck, and her pants were of the same material. The jet-black hair is curled up with a carved wooden hairpin, and the powder is white and shiny.
The diet of the Six Princes' Mansion is very exquisite, and Guan Jiyu has only lived here for less than two days, and his complexion has recovered very well.
King Ying was very satisfied with her state, and he even said with relief: "This king's vision is really good, Ah Yu, your physique is better than many men." ”
Guan Jiyu teased: "Don't say this, Lord Wang, I always feel weird when I hear you say this, it sounds like praising a pig for growing fat, I don't know whether to be happy or sad." ”
King Ying smiled happily and said, "Why do you compare yourself to a pig? I won't slaughter you and eat you, don't think so badly of me, Ah Yu, when this matter is successfully completed, I will not treat you badly. ”
Guan Jiyu said: "I don't expect the prince to be good to me, I have a trading relationship with you, I just hope that you will do what you say, the transaction is over, you will let me go, we will not see each other." ”
King Ying stroked his flying hair, hooked his eyes, and said, "The people who came out of Xiang Ju'an's military camp are really ruthless." ”
The preparations have been completed, Guan Jiyu walked into the secret room, there was an old man in foreign costumes sitting inside, Xia Mingzhong pushed King Ying slowly in, King Ying introduced: "This is Master Zeng Qi, I specially invited the doctor from Heqiliu, every cultivation of the "Wind Chopping Technique", Master Zeng Qi will accompany him, if you encounter any questions, you can ask him." ”
Master Zeng Qi's beard was already gray, and he cast a firm look, and he barely had any extra words, just motioned for Guan Jiyu to sit down.
Guan Jiyu sat opposite Zeng Qi, and there were large and small silver needles on the table in front of him, about a hundred in total. Guan Jiyu just watched it, and couldn't help but feel pain, Zeng Qi saw her fear, cast a look of comfort, and said, "Don't be afraid, hold on." ”
Zeng Qi first motioned to the maidservant to roll up Guan Jiyu's sleeves, he took out a few slender silver needles and pierced them one by one, Guan Jiyu was slightly relieved, she was afraid of getting sick and taking medicine when she was young, although she practiced kung fu, but she also suffered less. She is a person who has suffered a lot, but when she sees these needles, she can't help but feel afraid.
After all, the fear is greater than the pain, Guan Jiyu closed her eyes tightly, and I don't know how long it took, Zeng Qi called her: "It's over, you can open your eyes." She slowly opened her eyes.
Her limbs, including the top of her head, were covered with dense silver needles, and King Ying's eyes kept falling on her, and when the needles were over, he also breathed a sigh of relief and asked an inexplicable word: "What do you want to eat?" I'll tell the kitchen to make it for you. ”
Guan Jiyu stiffened, didn't dare to move, and said, "Wait a while, I don't have any appetite yet, besides, how can I eat like this now?" ”
Zeng Qi took out the prescription again, and told the maid to sprinkle the medicinal herbs in the pool according to the dosage on the prescription, soak it in hot water, and when all the medicine in the medicine pool was soaked and dissolved, Zeng Qi took off all the silver needles on Guan Jiyu's body, and said, "You can enter the medicine pool and soak it." ”
After that, Zeng Qi put away his medicine box and pushed it out of the secret room first. The maid walked to Guan Jiyu with a plate, there was a set of plain white gauze clothes on the plate, and after waiting for Guan Jiyu to change into it, Guan Jiyu stretched out his feet and stepped into the medicine pool.
Guan Jiyu doesn't understand those so-called acupuncture points of the human body, almost all the needles of Zeng Qi are used on her body, she doesn't look at her body carefully, she doesn't have to think about it, she must be densely packed with needles on her body.
The potion in the medicine pool was steaming, she tested the temperature of the water with her feet, only felt a little hot, but the maidservant said: "Master Zeng Qi said, the hotter the water, the better the medicinal effect, the girl should soak while it is hot." ”
Guan Jiyu had no choice but to go into the medicine pool and sit down, muttering in his heart that it would be good if it was winter to let people soak in this kind of hot bath, although it was late summer, but the sky was still quite hot, let her soak in such hot water, and she was not afraid of fainting from the heat.
It turned out that she was overthinking, it was not her usual bath, and she didn't have a chance to faint from the heat. Guan Jiyu had just sat in the water and soaked his body in the potions, when he slowly felt the potions touch his skin (this chapter is not over!). )
Chapter 132: Medicine Pool
The stinging pain, this pain for a while, like countless little ants gnawing at her, at first it was bearable, after soaking for about a pillar of incense, Guan Jiyu felt that it was getting hotter and hotter, and the beads of sweat on her forehead fell into the medicine pool one by one, her cheeks were red, and even her lips turned crimson.
Guan Jiyu's mouth was dry, her throat was so dry that it was about to smoke, and she said in a hoarse voice: "Is there water?" So thirsty......"
The maidservant stepped forward and said respectfully: "Girl, Master Zeng Qi said that you can't eat or drink water during the soaking period. ”
Guan Jiyu said uncomfortably: "Huh? Is it so strict? I won't be allowed to drink saliva, but I'm really thirsty......"
The maidservant just strictly followed Zeng Qi's instructions and said, "Girl, there is still time for a pillar of incense, bear with it a little longer, it will be soon." ”
Guan Jiyu had no choice but to continue to endure this long thirst, all she had left in her mind was "wanting to drink water", and she couldn't even feel the pain of the needles on her body and the sourness eroded by the potion.
She thought of King Ying's comment on her, "Your physique is better than many men", which merit is this? Guan Jiyu was irritable and anxious in his heart, and even a little annoyed with himself, the disadvantage of his health is that he can't faint if he wants to faint now, so he can only sit soberly in this medicine pool and wait.
Although the person sat quietly and did not move, her thoughts drifted thousands of miles away.
Guan Jiyu thought for a while about what Jiang Yingnian, Han Xu and Helan were doing in the eastern camp? How did the disparate injuries go? After a while, I thought of the Yanjiang promenade in the north, and I don't know what the contradiction between Xiang Ju'an and He Yuliu Fang is? Is Xiang Lincheng still by his side, or has Xiang Lincheng returned to the capital? Stopping at the gate of Xiang Lin City last night, she didn't knock on the door, and now she only feels that she is far away from Xiang Lin City. There is still Xiao Qingyuan in the north, Guan Jiyu hasn't been to the north for a long time, and I don't know what happened to Xiao Qingyuan now?
She was worried about too many people and things, and after a long circle, her thoughts returned to herself.
A servant girl stepped forward and reminded, "Girl, it's time, you can come out." ”
Guan Jiyu was anxious to get up, until she stood up, she found that her legs and feet were numb, she endured this numbness, took the water cup from the maid's mobile phone, and drank a glass of water in a big gulp, only then did she feel that she had picked up half a life.
The maidservants wiped off the medicine stains on her body with a clean handkerchief, and changed the clothes on her body, Guan Jiyu walked out of the secret room with faster steps, it was already dark outside, she took a deep breath of the outside air, and felt more comfortable.
King Ying had already ordered someone to arrange the meal, Guan Jiyu looked at the large and small plates and soups on the table, all of which were nourishing, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The prince really has a heart, as the so-called eating people with a soft mouth and short hands, the things you give me are so good, I don't try my best to help you heal your legs, I really can't help you with such a warm hospitality." ”
King Ying leaned forward slightly, took a bowl of soup with his own hands and handed it to Guan Jiyu, and said, "Drink some soup, haven't you been shouting that you are thirsty in the medicine pool?" I asked someone to stew several soups for you, sweet and salty, and you can drink as much as you want. ”
Guan Jiyu picked up the bowl and drank it all, stretched out his hand to fill himself with a bowl of sweet soup, blew and drank most of the bowl, and said: "I won't say much if you're polite, and you can't be idle at night, Master Zeng Qi said that you have to change another pool of potion at night to continue soaking." ”
"Hmm." King Ying watched her eat her food in spite of her image, and when she saw which dish Guan Jiyu had eaten two more bites, she asked someone to move the dish in front of her.
Guan Jiyu had almost eaten, so he put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "I'll go back to the room and rest for a while, and I'll go to the secret room later." ”
Just as she was about to leave the dinner table, King Ying stopped her: "Ah Yu." ”
"Huh?" Guan Jiyu looked at him suspiciously, but saw him hesitate and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
Guan Jiyu felt inexplicable, and he was the one who tried his best to negotiate a deal with her and asked her to come over to practice "The Trick of Cutting the Wind", and he was the one who kept promising to thank her.
Guan Jiyu couldn't understand this person anymore.
"What kind of hard work?" Guan Jiyu scratched his hair and said, "Doesn't I owe you too?" You got us out of the well of purgatory, that's what I promised you, and I have to do it carefully. ”
She went back to her room, lay down on the soft couch for a while, and when she felt that the time was almost up, she began to bathe again (this chapter is not over!). )
Chapter 132: Medicine Pool
Take a bath and change your clothes, and then go back to the secret room.
Master Zeng Qi was already waiting in the secret room, and after taking the pulse for Guan Jiyu, he nodded, then took out another prescription, and instructed the maid to prepare medicinal materials and put them in the medicine pool.
This time, the water in the medicine pool was replaced with ice water.
In fact, Guan Jiyu had just stepped into the secret room, and she felt the chill inside, the clothes on her body were thin, and she couldn't help but hug her arms and said, "Why is it so cold?" ”
The maidservants grinded the required dozen herbs into powder and sprinkled them all into the pool, Guan Jiyu changed into the tulle clothes needed to soak the medicine according to the original steps, skillfully curled his hair, and slowly walked into the medicine pool.
The chill rushed up her toes, and Guan Jiyu was so cold that she got goosebumps, and sat shivering in the pool, and she hissed again and again to force herself to adapt to the water temperature.
She remembered the dream she had, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, which made her suffer from both ice and fire. This dream should be a reminder to her that she will sink into this pain from time to time in the future.
The night was deep, and the ice pool had been soaked for longer than before, Guan Jiyu's body was so frozen that he was already unconscious, his head was groggy, and his consciousness was gradually weakening.
"It's cold, it's cold......"
She struggled to squeeze out these words in her throat, and at this moment the maidservants had already retreated, and the entire palace should have fallen asleep.
Guan Jiyu seemed to have had a dream, in the dream it was in the camp of the Beixin General's Mansion, she was lying in the quilt due to the cold, and her whole body was hot, and she also felt cold at that time, so cold that her teeth were fighting.
She dreamed again that there was a knock on her door, and she opened it to see a cup of clear chicken soup outside. The warm chicken broth moistened her tongue and slid warmly down her throat, and this was the warmest moment she felt.
The taste of that cup of chicken soup she will never forget......
At that time, she thought it was sent by Xiang Lincheng, but she always thought it was sent by Xiang Lincheng.
It wasn't until Jiang Yingnian came alone from the east to bring her Babao sweet rice in the Yanjiang Promenade that she knew that the cup of chicken soup that she had always remembered was Jiang Ying's Chinese New Year's Eve secretly climbing over the wall and braving the wind and snow to bring her chicken stew......
The year of Jiang Ying, the year of Jiang Ying.
"Jiang Yingnian, I'm so cold."
