Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Holy Hand in Medicine
At night, the two went to bed.
Zhong Lixuan has been a little uneasy today, she is sitting next to Situ Xi after bathing at the moment, and there is no longer the gentle and calm look on her face.
The room was a little quiet, Situ Xi rubbed her head, got up and lit the candle on the table.
"Lady, what are you thinking?"
Hearing Situ Xi's voice, Zhong Li's chest swelled with complicated feelings for a while.
Her eyes moistened again, but she didn't shed tears.
It's hard to sort out this emotion.
She felt a palpitation in her chest when she received the news of the attack on Fishheart Street.
There was joy after learning that Situ Xi was safe and sound, and Xianggong, who was leaning on her side, was still thinking about comforting himself at this time.
There was a hint of anger, and she hoped that he would have a snack on her safety.
But more often than not, it's the feeling of powerlessness that pervades all parts of the body.
She knew that with the two of them, she might encounter more dangerous situations in the future than they did today.
If she faces all kinds of difficulties in the future, she wants to help Situ Xi and do anything.
She wanted to share his troubles with him, instead of relying on someone else's strength instead of worrying about it, as she did this morning.
"Xianggong, is there anything that a concubine can do?" Zhong Lixuan leaned his head on Situ Xi's shoulder and asked him questions in a soft voice.
Situ Xi heard her words, and her general thoughts were clear in his heart.
"Hmm...... What dreams does the lady have? "It's a bit of a jump.
"Dreams?" Zhong Lixuan was also stunned by this question.
"It's not in a hurry, the lady can think about it, I haven't asked the lady yet, what are your preferences in the past?"
"The concubine used to love reading, and she dabbled in all kinds of books, but now she can't call it a preference, and she is far from those people and gentlemen in terms of learning, but she simply reads to enjoy herself...... It is said that the concubine has not read a book for several months. ”
How many months, yes, she probably didn't have that mind after she was told that she was going to get married, and she was also busy with family affairs during this time after marriage......
Situ Xi turned his head to stare at her face, her skin was very good, and her skin could be broken by blowing, but the expression on her face was obviously a little lost, as if she thought she was too ordinary.
Situ Xi felt that she was a little arrogant, and it was a rare thing to be able to love reading books from the bottom of her heart.
What's more, being able to read all kinds of books patiently is a talent that most people dream of, whether it is in the past life or in this life.
"That lady will resume reading tomorrow, and she must spend time reading every day, and I have a lot of things to work on for you in the future."
……
Early the next morning.
Seven members of Situ Xi's family were standing at the entrance of the courtyard.
In front of him was the eunuch Huai Ke who sent Situ Xi back to his house yesterday, and next to him stood an old man in a white robe with gray hair.
"Situ Gongzi, this is Mr. Bian, his old man is a court doctor, and now there are many young doctors in the Imperial Medical Pavilion who are his apprentices, and he is responsible for recuperating your body these days."
"Bian Qiao meets the Nine Kings, I'm going to bother you during this time." This white-robed old man has a childish face, and his actions and words also give people a feeling of fairy wind and bones.
"This is the case, it's troublesome Bian." For the cordial greetings of the elders, Situ Xi naturally smiled and returned the etiquette.
However, when he looked at Gonggong Huai again, Situ Xi's face was a little ugly.
"Father-in-law Huai, what do these soldiers at the door mean?"
"Eh, Childe, this is a holy oracle, there are seven days before the Great Flower Dynasty, Your Majesty is afraid that you will be messing around again, in case you are hurt, you will not be able to participate in the spring hunt and birthday banquet, the happy event is current, it is better to avoid more incidents." Huai Qi also explained to Situ Xi with a wry smile, hoping that he could understand.
"You weren't allowed to go out for seven days? What if you don't have enough to eat? ”
"Your Majesty only said that you won't let your son go out, and the others will naturally stay the same, if an acquaintance comes to visit, just report to these guards in front of the door." After saying it with a smile, he bent down and took a few steps back with some hurriedness.
"Childe, our family is going to Huaiming Mansion next, if you have any questions, you can inform Mr. Bian first, and our family will leave first."
With that, he hurried away.
"This ......" Situ Xi was speechless for a moment, turned around and reluctantly gave a few people behind him a look, and then put on a smile and looked at Mr. Bian Qiao, "Old man, let you see the smile, let's talk about it in the first room." ”
……
was grounded until the Flower Dynasty Festival.
Or at home.
There's no way to change that, and it's just a good time to sort out what you're going to do right now.
The only trouble is that the gift for the Queen Mother has not been picked yet, and he can't go out now.
Situ Xi and Bian Lao sat at the table in the courtyard, and Manjun poured a glass of cooked water for each of them.
The rich aroma came to his nose, Bian Lao's eyes lit up, he pulled up his sleeve robe and picked up the cup on the table, placed the tip of his nose and sniffed lightly, raised his eyebrows, and took another sip.
"There are sand kernels and licorice." Frowning, he took another sip and tasted it carefully, "What kind of herb is it?" The flavor is a little too sweet. ”
As soon as these words came into his ears, Situ Xi instantly had a clear understanding of the level of the old man in front of him, and he was worthy of being a teacher among the imperial doctors.
"Bian Lao is really a god, there are only two kinds of medicinal materials in it, sand kernels and licorice, as for you said that its taste is too sweet, it is because this cooked water was boiled before you came, and my wife likes sweetness, I asked the maid at home to put more caramel into it." Situ Xi smiled and said, "If it doesn't suit Mr.'s taste, I'll let them boil another pot." ”
This answer made Bian Lao stunned, and he immediately smiled heartily.
"Hahaha, it turned out that the old man fell into the medicine cabinet."
"But it's called 'cooked water', isn't it? It's a novelty, is it Childe's idea? This water service can remove chest and diaphragm stagnation, it seems that the son also knows some medicinal materials? ”
"Where do I understand this, it's all nonsense, and I've seen some home remedies in the past." Situ Xi told the truth, and he was even more sure that this Bian Lao was a holy hand.
"Childe is humble." Bian Lao smiled and put down the cup, "Childe, the old man will check your pulse first." ”
Without hesitation, he stretched out his right hand, Bian Lao helped him roll up his sleeves, and he was about to reach out to check Situ Xi's pulse, but suddenly found some bruises on his hands.
"Did Childe go head-to-head with those dead men yesterday?" Bian Lao said the word "dead man" as soon as he opened his mouth, indicating that he knew the details of this matter.
"It's true that I've taken pictures, but these injuries are not caused by them, it's not a secret, I'm practicing martial arts with people in the next few days, and every time I practice, I will leave some minor injuries, but some flesh and skin scars, and I will be healed in a few days."
"Oh?" Bian Lao raised his head to look at Situ Xi's face, and then looked up and down at his bones, "Childe does have the qualifications to practice martial arts. ”
"I just practice casually, thinking that I can get fit, and I'm a little older at this age."
"Things in the world, as long as there is a heart, it is never too late." Bian Lao shook his head, "Childe exercises like this, if you don't wait for the injury to recover, you will leave a dark injury after a long time." ”
"In this way, the old man has two secret recipes, and the son can make a decoction according to them after practicing martial arts in the future, one oral and the other with a soup bath, which will be conducive to the progress of martial arts."
