Chapter 44 He Yanming
Night has come, benzoin is lit in the east hall, but Lou Yunxiao can't sleep, her aunt and brother told her before entering the palace, her words and deeds now represent the entire building. Now that she can't make a mistake and lose face to the Lou Mansion, and she doesn't want to continue to stay in the palace and wait for the revenge of the Nine Emperor Princes, this is what makes her the most difficult.
On the second day, when it was still dark, Gan Tang brought a group of maids to knock on the door. Lou Yunxiao was very helpless, I am afraid that there will be another test.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is limited to a quarter of an hour, please freshen up and dress up and wait in the front hall."
There was a lot of complaints in the halls on both sides, Lou Yunxiao didn't close her eyes all night, she freshened up, packed up the bed and prepared to go out, but she suddenly found that there was another person who was as fast as her.
This lady is not a beauty, but her manners and manners are very dignified, very similar to Su Rongyan's temperament, but she is more feminine than Su Rongyan.
Lou Yunxiao walked out with her, and Lou Yunxue came out next.
The people behind also came out one after another, but they either looked confused and stared, or their facial features were flying around, and they completely lost their beauty and demeanor from the previous day.
"Ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow will be the selection, and before that, you need to be familiar with the rules and etiquette of the face saint. Only when it is done in place, can you use breakfast. Gan Tang said that, and the two older female officers stepped forward from her side.
The ladies were divided into two sides according to the east and west side halls, and were taught by different female officials. A group of ladies walked around the yard with their hair scattered, and the picture was also extremely weird. The next step is to assess one by one, and if you don't do it well, you have to go back and continue to practice hard.
Obviously, those in the east side hall learn faster than the west side hall, after all, they are from a family. The lady who came out with Lou Yunxiao before took the lead in going to Gan Tang's side for assessment, and she was steady and decent every step of the way, and Gan Tang nodded approvingly.
"Ye Niangzi passed the assessment."
However, as long as Lou Yunxiao doesn't let her learn those literary things, she can learn everything quickly, but she doesn't want to go too early, and it is best to pass the assessment when she is not moving forward or backward, so as to ensure that she will not embarrass the family and will not be too ostentatious.
On the other hand, Lou Yunxue, as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, also quickly went to Gan Tang's side for assessment, but she was arrogant and indulged by Fu Yuewei since she was a child, and her demeanor was even more like a joke.
"Lou Wuniang is not qualified, please go back and continue to practice."
Gan Tang's words pierced her heart like a knife, and several people in the east side hall couldn't help laughing.
"She is the daughter of Fu Niangzi who was sent to Biyuan Temple for meditation in the Lou family, everyone says that Fu Niangzi is the concubine of the upper position, so it seems that this demeanor is really not on the stage."
"No wonder Lou Sanniang can live in the east side hall, but she can only live in the west side hall, even the palace knows that she is from a humble background."
"That is, to put it nicely, it is a concubine born to a flat wife, and if it is not good, it is a concubine born of a concubine, and I really think that I am a daughter."
Lou Yunxue tried her best to suppress her anger, and hated Lou Qihuai in her heart, and hated Chu Yuxian and Lou Yunxiao.
However, Lou Yunxiao on the side felt that this way of heaven was quite fair, how she was pointed at in the past, and now Lou Yunxue has tasted it all.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lou Yunxiao also walked over, and she quickly passed the assessment. Lou Yunxue was not to be outdone, and immediately walked over, and this time she also passed the assessment.
Lou Yunxue quickly chased after him and walked side by side with Lou Yunxiao.
"Don't think that you can be a head above me if you live in the East Side Palace, I will definitely sit in the position of the princess this time, and then you will wait to salute me."
"Then congratulations to my sister in advance." Lou Yunxiao responded without being salty.
Her attitude made Lou Yunxue even more angry, "Are you sarcastic about me?" If you think I'm inferior to you, you can say so. ”
"Do you have a problem with your brain, I'm congratulating you, but you think I'm sarcastic. It's really not speculative for more than half a sentence. Lou Yunxiao didn't want to deal with her, so she silently quickened her pace.
After breakfast, you can arrange it by yourself, many little ladies have gone to visit the flower garden, Lou Yunxiao has no thoughts, she returned to the east side hall and took out the phoenix hairpin he gave her at the garden banquet that day, and I don't know how he is now.
Mu Lingci, who was far away in Jiannan Road, didn't know that Lou Yunxiao had entered the palace to participate in the draft, and the army he led was trapped by the miasma when he arrived in Maozhou, but fortunately the damage was not great, but the further he went south, the more miasma there was, and the more poisonous the poisonous insects, snakes and ants became.
Mu Lingci simply asked a local person for advice on how to prevent miasma, and the local people said that they could use sandalwood, atractylodes, and wood incense to make medicine bags and wear them to avoid the poison of miasma. Mu Lingci learned the same, and it really worked.
The night was thick, and he looked at the crescent moon and thought about Lou Yunxiao's smile. took out the white jade hairpin from his arms and rubbed it for a while, and when he returned triumphantly this time, he must ask the saint to give him a marriage, so that even if Mu Feng disagreed, there would be no trick. But the premise is that he can go back safe and sound.
Suddenly, Leji ran over in a panic.
"Marshal, it's not good. Many people in the camp had abdominal pain, as if they had been poisoned. ”
Mu Lingci hurriedly arrived and immediately asked people to go to the town to ask Mr. to come for treatment, but Shen Jinfeng, as the deputy marshal, walked leisurely.
"What's going on? It was fine just now. ”
Mu Lingci didn't bother to pay attention to him, and ran straight over to check on the soldiers with abdominal pain, they were curled up on the ground, their facial features were hideous, and it was very painful.
Seeing that Mu Ling ignored himself, Shen Jinfeng snorted coldly.
The military advisor on the side arched and said: "Deputy Marshal Shen, this Marshal Mu is too blind. ”
"It's okay, we're here with a mission this time, and we can't let him go back alive. Let him be sneering now, and there will be a time for him to cry in the future. Shen Jinfeng shook his shoulders, smashed his lips and went back to the camp to continue eating meat.
Mu Lingci checked the last thing they ate, it was a pot of vegetable soup, and it seemed that the problem was very likely to be here.
"Sir is here!"
A young gentleman with a medicine box ran over and hurried to check on the fallen soldier.
"This is the poison of the broken intestine grass, just boil some charcoal water for everyone to take, and then take mung beans, honeysuckle, licorice decoction to detoxify. Fast! ”
The soldiers who had not been recruited immediately set off to prepare, and Mu Lingci walked to the young gentleman's side.
"Hello sir, in the next is the Marshal of the Soldiers and Horses Mu Ling, please ask Mr. name."
Only then did the young gentleman see Mu Lingci, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The surname is He, and the name is Yan." ”
"Mr. He is polite, thank you Mr. today." Mu Lingci knows the rules of Jiannan Road, and no one will want to come to this mountain forest at night, this little gentleman looks young but very brave.
"The Northern Holy Army also marched thousands of miles to recover the lost territory, and although they were powerless, they also wanted to make some contributions." He Yanming looked upright, looked left and right, "I see that there is no military doctor in this army, if the marshal does not dislike it, he can take on this position." ”
Mu Lingci looked at him with admiration, "Isn't Mr. He afraid?" The bandits were vicious, murderous thugs. ”
He Yanming's eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were full of grief, "Don't hide it from the marshal, a certain sister was kidnapped by those beasts on the day of marriage, and my father wanted to redeem my sister with all the wealth in the family after learning about it, but they beat him and robbed him of the wealth." When my father returned home, he coughed up blood and passed away within a day, and my sister was found dead in the woods three days later. I have a deep blood feud with them, and if this revenge is not avenged, the name of the inkstone will be in vain. ”
"What a bunch of brutes." Mu Ling was furious after hearing this, and he didn't know how many people had been killed like He Yanming. "Mr. He, this trip is too dangerous, you still have a lot of ways to go in the future, you just need to wait for the news of triumph with peace of mind."
He Yanming didn't speak, just lowered his head.
The poisoned soldier took the medicine according to He Yanming's prescription and soon recovered, and Mu Lingci's heart was also relaxed.
It was urgent to rush to Huizhou, and on the second day, Mu Lingci led the army to camp forward, but at the end of the army was followed by a thin young man, who was He Yanming.
"Marshal, Mr. He is still following, why don't we let him accompany the team." Le Ji looked back at He Yanming, who was trying to follow, and was a little unbearable.
