Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the summer solstice, the black cat begins to shed its hair, and the image that it has finally recovered collapsed again, it is in a bad mood, and it nests in the tree all day long and does not want to come down.

Minghui chose Shen Su incense, sandalwood, cloves, roots, spider incense, camphor, and took one or two each; fast incense, mountain naphthalene, each take six taels; Jatamansi, Angelica dahurica, rhubarb, golden sand, and radix ginseng, each take four taels; Qianghuo, peony skin, and official cinnamon, each take two taels; Then take one or two good ginger, three coins of musk, grind into powder, add seven coins of flame nitrate, mix and pound well with water, make incense sticks, and the name is called Yutang Qinghao incense.

She divided the incense sticks she made into three parts, one for each of Wang Zhenren and the two old ladies of Jiang, packed it in a box, and she personally sent it to the Da Jiang family and the Xiao Jiang family.

"This jade hall is clear and misty, it is the most suitable for summer, the two old ladies can give it a try."

Since the last time Ming Hui planned to blow up the family of Guangyuan Bofu, the Dajiang clan's favor for Ming Hui has been increasing day by day, if her daughter is still alive, her granddaughter is also so old.

"Okay, as long as it's incense made by you, there's nothing bad about it, we all like it."

Xiao Jiang also smiled: "Since Hui'er came to live, our Taoist temple is not only fragrant, but also brightened." ”

In the past, there was a lifeless atmosphere in the Taoist temple, but since Minghui came, the little Taoist aunts have been vigorous, Qingzhu and Qingfeng are also like they are young, with a smile on their faces, the clouds used to be thick, but now it is sunny, and even people's hearts are bright.

Dajiang said: "Ten days later is the day of the ascension of Huizhen Immortal Monarch, every year on this day, people will come to the palace, the Yao Pond you sent over last time is fragrant, I don't know if it is possible to remake?" ”

Minghui knew in her heart that on the day of Concubine Jiang Guifei's death, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother would not come in person, but they would send a decent attendant or grandmother in the palace to come, and the Dajiang family asked her to make incense, thinking that it was to give it to the person who came this time.

On the Shangyuan Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival, the palace also sent people to send rewards, but the Dajiang clan and the Xiaojiang clan only sent a red seal every time, and never mentioned sending incense to her.

You must know that incense, like food, cannot be sent into the palace casually.

Minghui looked embarrassed: "Old lady, there are angelica and musk in the fragrance of Yaochi, if it happens to be smelled by a pregnant nobleman in the palace, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." ”

Da Jiang didn't want to be so meticulous at Minghui's young age: "Every year I come to the view to worship Xianjun is Xiao Mama next to Concubine Lin, Concubine Lin was not there last spring, Xiao Mama was allowed to go out of the palace after filial piety, last month in addition to the service, back from Baoding, she is going out of the palace, you make the Yao Chi fragrance, and the spices she used to smoke clothes when she was young are very similar, I want to send her some, Hui'er can rest assured, this Yao Chi incense, will not be sent to the nobles." ”

Minghui said in her heart, who is this Concubine Lin? Why did the Queen Mother ask her grandmother to incense Concubine Jiang?

"Old lady, when Xianjun was in the mortal world, did he make friends with Concubine Lin?"

The Da Jiang family sighed: "Concubine Lin is from the Lin family in Hejian, the Lin family and the Jiang family are in-laws, and the biological mother of the head of the Lin family in this generation is surnamed Jiang." After the Jiazi case was Zhaoxue, there was only one male in my Jiang family's descendants, Jiang Chao, and the female dependents were ...... The first emperor thought of Xianjun, loved the house and Wu, and remembered that the Lin family had a daughter who was a beauty in the palace, so he mentioned the concubine position to Lin Meiren, Concubine Lin had no children, and after the first emperor died, she stayed in the palace. ”

Hearing the words of the Lin family in Hejian, Ming Hui's heart moved, the old lady Lin who cultivated immortals with Old Lady Ming was the Lin family in Hejian.

Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Ming were classmates when they were young, and later they were in the same department, and then they became Taoist friends of cultivating immortals, and the two were born in the same year.

I didn't expect the Lin family to have a concubine.

The situation in the palace is changing, this Concubine Lin can turn the tables against the wind, become rich and old, and think she is also a character.

Although the Dajiang clan was sure that Mama Xiao would not present the Yaochi Qingwei incense to the nobles in the palace, Minghui thought about it for a long time and decided to modify the incense recipe.

There are at least four spices in Yaochi Qingwei Fragrance that are not suitable for pregnant women, in addition to musk and angelica, cloves and spider incense are also not used by pregnant women.

Minghui tried several times, and finally made the first batch of Yaochi Qingwei incense.

She lit one and asked the Da Jiang clan and the Xiao Jiang clan to evaluate it, both of them were very satisfied, and Minghui said that she had changed the incense recipe, and the Da Jiang clan and the Xiao Jiang clan were stunned at first, and they were soon relieved.

In the kind of place in the palace, it is appropriate to be cautious.

A few days later, the person from the palace who came to sacrifice to Huizhen Xianjun arrived, and it was really Mama Xiao.

Minghui had entered the city the day before, and when she returned two days later, Mama Xiao had already left.

Not later to stay in the Taoist temple, she is Minghui's eyes and ears.

"Mama Xiao didn't come alone." Don't be late to say.

Minghui smiled: "The palace will not let Mama Xiao come alone, there will also be chamberlains and small palace maids." ”

"The slave maid is saying, in addition to the accompanying chamberlain and palace maid, there is also the lord of Dingxiang County, the slave maid inquired, the lord of Dingxiang County is the cousin of the Queen Mother, in addition to this identity, she is also Mrs. Changping Hou."

In her previous life, Minghui didn't know much about the situation in the capital, because she died too strangely in the end, so in this life, when Minghui chatted with the two old ladies of Jiang, she would inquire about the affairs of the capital intentionally or unintentionally, and there was the well-informed Jiang Haiquan, and Minghui had heard more or less about the affairs of the nobles and famous families in the capital.

She knew that the Marquis of Changping, this was the first-class marquis of Taizu, and he was hereditary.

The first generation of Changping Marquis is the cousin of Taizu, after Taizu established the dynasty, he posthumously named his mother as the wife of Yanguo, the emperor's grace is vast, and the Changping Marquis Mansion is rich.

Although the Marquis of Changping Mansion is not as good as the next generation, it has also been beautiful for three generations and more than a hundred years.

But since the death of the last old Changping Hou, the Changping Marquis Mansion has sunset.

It is said that the lord of Dingxiang County fell in love at first sight and fell in love with the handsome and dashing Huo Zhanpeng, and he did not hesitate to continue the string.

It's a pity that this Huo Hou Ye has nothing to do except for his good looks, and he can't do anything, but he has caused a lot of romantic debts.

However, Huo Hou Ye has an advantage, that is, he is afraid of the inside, so although he has a lot of romantic debts, no female mosquito can fly into the copper wall of the Changping Hou Mansion.

Huo Houye's romantic affairs are the talk of the streets and alleys in the capital, but there is only the wife of the county lord of Dingxiang in the Changping Marquis's mansion, and there are no good concubines and concubines.

Minghui was very curious, she really didn't expect that this legendary county lord of Dingxiang would actually come over with Mama Xiao.

"This county lord is in his thirties and is very beautiful, but he looks like a powerful person." Don't be late to say.

Minghui said in her heart, if she marries a husband like Marquis Changping, if she is not powerful, she will be angry to death.

When I went to see Da Jiang, Da Jiang sighed: "The Yao Chi you made is fragrant, Xiao Mama likes it very much, alas, she is gone, I am afraid it will be difficult to see it in the future." ”

"Is Mama Xiao returning to her hometown? Is she also from the River? "Concubine Lin is from Hejian, so Minghui asked this question.

"She is from Fengyang, there is a nephew in the family, who is willing to serve her to the end of her life, and now she has come to the capital to pick her up, she has returned to Beijing to hand over errands, and she is going to follow her nephew back to Fengyang."

Since Mama Xiao was mentioned, the topic turned to the county lord of Dingxiang.

Dajiang said: "The county lord is just stopping by, she came to Baoding Mansion to visit friends, and after getting the Yi Zhi, she came with the carriage in the palace." ”

"Visiting friends?" Minghui was puzzled.

As the county lord of Dingxiang, he can't leave the capital casually, and he must have a will to go beyond the capital for a hundred miles.

Even if the Queen Mother is her cousin, the lord of Dingxiang County will not ask for a decree for trivial matters, and this friend who can let her invite Yizhi to go out of Beijing must be very important to her.

"The county lord of Dingxiang has some friendship with the Ming family, I heard that Hui'er is in the view, and I want to see you, but unfortunately Hui'er is not there." Oe said.
