Chapter 170: Looking for a congratulatory gift

Hebai's wedding, and the palace began to be busy preparing again.

Dongxia asked Aunt Meng what kind of congratulatory gifts should be given, and Aunt Meng thought about it.

"There is no shortage of ordinary and mundane things, and there is no point in sending these with your relationship, there are rare objects in the palace, and the two of them are not strange, and small gadgets are difficult to find, which is difficult."

Dong Xia took her hand and coquettishly, "Okay Aunt Meng, help me think about it, I really can't think of it." ”

Aunt Meng smiled and shook her, "Okay, let Aunt Meng help you think about it." ”

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the embroidery of the acacia flowers on her placket, "You are good at embroidery, why don't you send Hebai embroidery?" Or a splendid quilt? ”

These are simple for winter and summer, but she always feels that she can't express her heart, and she usually embroiders some sachets and soft pillows for Ming Lanying and a few people when she has time.

What else did she want to send in winter and summer, she thought hard for two days, and she didn't notice a basket of medicinal herbs for a long time.

Zhao Lao studied the decoction to relieve Ning'er's growing pains, and as soon as he came out with the bamboo basket, he saw her absent-minded Huo Huo medicinal materials, and hurriedly strode forward to grab the basket.

"What do you want!"

Dong Xia hurriedly came back to his senses, "Grandfather, Hebai is married, what should I give?" ”

Zhao Lao waved his hand to drive her away, "Absent-mindedly, don't Huo Huo my medicinal herbs, while thinking about it slowly." ”

Dong Xia had no choice but to wipe his hands, sighed and walked aside, "You can't really send them medicine then, right?" ”

"Delivering medicine?" Zhao Lao nodded matter-of-factly, "It's not impossible." ”

Dongxia: "Huh? ”

"There is no need to send ordinary medicines, if you can find these few medicinal materials and make this rare soul-preserving pill, this is more valuable than those antidote pills and beauty pills, which can save your life at a critical time."

Dong Xia was surprised, "Grandfather, is this true?" How come I've never heard of such a good thing? ”

Zhao Lao knocked her, "Of course!" The use of rare and precious medicinal materials, can be collected is lucky, can be made is rare in the world, but the medicinal effect is also rare in the world, even if half of the body is missing, you can survive. ”

"So powerful?! Is there really an elixir of life? ”

Zhao Lao knocked her again, "Where have you read the medical skills!" The way of immortality violates the laws of nature, and in the end it will become a thing that is not a human or a ghost. After all, medicine is just medicine, it is an auxiliary to the body, it can save people and harm people, there is no immortality, it can only prolong life. ”

Dong Xia smiled, "Grandfather has so many good things here, if there is really any magic medicine one day, I have to take a look first!" ”

Zhao Lao hated the iron and poked her head, "You don't know what I have good things that you don't know, stinky girl, you know that you will take it from me to your sister-in-law." ”

Dong Xia shook his head, "Grandfather, you have taught me since I was a child, we can have our current life thanks to my sister-in-law, of course, we must be good to my sister-in-law!" ”

After Dong Xia gave birth to a child, the admiration for Ming Lanying moved from the bottom of her heart to the bright side, and now she looks like a "sister-in-law is the sky, sister-in-law is the earth, and sister-in-law is a fairy descending to earth".

Zhao Lao copied a list of medicines and threw it to her, his good granddaughter gave birth to a child and became like this, as a doctor, he couldn't help it, or he couldn't see it.

"Take it, these things are not available in ordinary pharmacies, but the border is vast and the products are abundant, maybe you can really find these herbs."

"I'll go!"

Meng Huai was later picked up by Dong Xia and was told that she had gone out to collect medicine and had not returned.

Meng Huaisu glanced at the sky, it was still early, thinking that she would come back soon, so he helped in Zhao Lao's yard and waited for her to come back by the way.

As a result, Dong Xia didn't come back for two days, and Meng Huaisu waited in the palace for two days.

Hebai and Shan Zhao came back to play in a hurry, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Meng Huaisu and Ming Lanying staring at each other, and Zhao Lao was worried.

"Sister-in-law, do you call us two in a meeting? It's too much! ”

Shan Zhao leaned into her ear and said, "Why do I feel like something is wrong, don't talk yet." ”

Mama Cai quietly gestured to the two, and the two silently shut up and pulled to the side.

Meng Huaisu rubbed his tired eyes, "Dare to ask the princess, what about my wife?" ”

Ming Lan Ying: "......"

How did she know, she also only now knew that Dong Xia didn't come back for two days.

Ye Juelu sighed silently, he hasn't come back for two days, and he hasn't even sent a piece of news, so something should be wrong.

"Crane Bai Shan Zhao listens to orders."

As soon as the two of them were excited, the conditioned reflex restrained their lazy posture, and immediately stood up straight, "The end will be!" ”

"Take four teams of people up the mountain to find Meng Niangzi."

"Yes!"

Hebai should go down before he remembered, "Brother, did you have an accident when you went up the mountain alone in winter and summer?" ”

Ming Lanying hugged the little black panther and got up, "I haven't been back for two days, so you two hurry up to find someone, Mama Cai, you take the people in the house who are familiar with the neighborhood to find someone together." ”

"The slave knows."

Hebai hurriedly dragged Shan Zhao out of the door, Ming Lanying took the little black panther to the Hundred Beasts Garden, and Ye Jielu patted Meng Huaisu.

"Let's go, let's go together."

Zhao Lao also wanted to go, but was stopped by the two, "Just wait here, we will find Dongxia." ”

Zhao Lao sat in place and muttered, "In the past, she went to collect medicine alone, and she would come back before dark." ”

Meng Huaisu was even more anxious, "Grandfather, don't worry, I will definitely bring winter and summer back." ”

Meng Huaisu hurriedly followed Hebai Danzhao's team.

Ye Jielu walked to the backyard to find Ming Lanying, and found that she had organized two teams of birds and beasts, and set off violently.

"Lady."

Minglan Ying pinched the whistle and blew it, and two teams of birds and beasts poured out of the nest.

Ming Lanying held the little black panther in one hand and pulled him with the other, "Let's go, let's go and find it together, there are so many beasts in the mountains and forests, what if you have bad luck in winter and summer!" ”

Ming Lanying's footsteps were in a hurry, and she was almost mixed, and Ye Jielu hurriedly held her.

"Don't worry, you have experience in winter and summer, and you won't let yourself have trouble."

The palace suddenly made a big move, looking for people all over the mountain, and the people were a little puzzled and curious to inquire about something, but the people in the palace were very strict and didn't inquire about anything.

The mountains and forests are very large, and the towering trees that grow wild cover the sky.

Hebai glanced at the terrain, "Winter and summer have experience in collecting medicines, and the herbs on the periphery will definitely not waste much time for her, then she will definitely go deep into the mountains, let's look inside, remember to make marks on the way." ”

Shan Zhao nodded, "Okay, you take people over there, I'll take people over there, you pay attention to safety, don't be reckless, Brother Meng also leads a team of people to find it in that direction." ”

Meng Huaisu didn't want to wait for a moment, and hurriedly went to the mountains.

Ye Jielu took Ming Lan Ying to ride a horse together, and as soon as she entered the mountains and forests, she also let the little black panther out, Ming Lan Ying has special abilities, and the animals are her eyeliner.

Ming Lanying guessed that Dong Xia was either lost, trapped, or stuck in a cliff.

The animals scattered to find them, faster than the crane white and them, and the Ming Lan warbler soon heard the cry of Mayi in the treetops.

Ming Lanying pinched Ye Jielu's arm and pointed in a direction, "Xiao Hei picked up the sachet of winter and summer there." ”

The dense grass in that direction grew to the waist, and it was difficult for the horses to walk over, so Ye Jielu turned over and dismounted and went over to explore the way first.

Use the dagger to open a way, and then turn back to pick up the Ming Lan Ying.

Ye Jielu handed her a sachet embroidered with cordyceps.

"I did find a sachet, but there was a deep hole ahead."

Ming Lanying's heart tightened, and she squeezed the sachet tightly, "Cordyceps sinensis...... It's winter and summer, where is that hole? ”

The two came to the deep cave, the grass at the entrance of the cave had traces of collapse, the cave was low and dark, and the Ming Lan warbler called twice, but did not hear an echo.

"Is the hole too deep or is she not here?"

Ye Jielu threw a stone down, and soon heard the movement, guessing that it would not be too deep, "It shouldn't be here, but she can't come out of this depth alone." ”

There were no signs of struggle and pulling at the entrance of the cave, proving that she did not climb up, and no one helped her up.

"Is there a road down here?"

Ye Jielu nodded, and the dagger cut the nearby grass and braided a sturdy grass rope.

The warbler blew the whistle and called the little panther back, and sometimes the intuition of the beast was more accurate than that of a man.

The little panther quickly sprang out and threw himself into her arms.

Ye Jielu held her and slowly slid down, there was no light at the bottom of the cave, and he couldn't see his five fingers.

Ye Jielu took out the fire fold from his arms, and with the faint light of the fire, the two saw a dark passage.

Ming Lanying hesitantly looked at the passage as black as an abyss, "Could it be winter and summer...... Gone from here, right? ”

Ye Jielu frowned, "Most likely, but this kind of place is dangerous and difficult to control." ”

Ming Lanying was a little stunned, but her worries about winter and summer prevailed, and she pulled Ye Jielu and rushed in.

"Let's go and find her sooner."

The little panther in his arms rushed out and led the way.

The passage is not long, but the traces should have been dug for a long time, Ye Jielu speculated that there were at least more than 20 years, and the two of them walked out like this.

"Where is this?"

Ming Lan Ying looked at the mountains and forests in front of them, the trees were still familiar species, but they were not the trees with strips of cloth tied when they came, and they couldn't tell where they were for a while.

The little panther sat at her feet licking the fur, apparently not knowing the ground either.

Ming Lanying was speechless, they walked for a long time is a road?

"What's the point of this passage?"

Ye Jielu looked around, "This should be the other side of the mountain, it was not peaceful when the ancestor emperor was plugged in, there were rogues and bandits who robbed homes and houses, and the people in the village could only hide in the mountains." ”

"But some rogues will go into the mountains to look for people if they don't loot enough, so innocent villagers dug this tunnel, which can hide and delay the time to escape."

"No matter at any time, there will always be bedbugs in the invisible place to survive, after the first emperor ascended the throne, he focused on cleaning up the evil forces, and this country was already clean when it came to the emperor."

Ming Lanying was in a complicated mood, and bent down to pick up the little black panther, "Okay, every existence is meaningful, and it will be better if you govern it in the future, so it's important to find winter and summer now." ”

Ye Juelu looked ahead, "The front should be a cliff and a way down the mountain." ”

Ming Lanying looked down at the little black panther, the little black panther shook her head, and she had to take out the lark whistle again, "I hope this place won't be too far from over there." ”

The whistle echoed in the mountains and forests, and the Minglan warbler listened to the movement, and Ye Jielu had good ear strength, and soon caught the familiar movement of fluttering wings.

"It's your Hai Dongqing."

Ming Lanying raised her head in surprise, "Sure enough, it's still a little three!" ”

The towering giant trees in the mountains and forests blocked the difficulty of flying, Hai Dongqing couldn't get close to her, Ming Lanying blew a tune, Hai Dongqing roared, and flew to the cliff.

Ye Juelu looked at her, "Is it on the cliff?" ”

Ming Lanying nodded, "Let's follow it." ”

But Ming Lanying's foot strength is slow, and Ye Jielu simply picked up the person with one arm, took a step with long legs, and was extremely fast in the mountains and forests.

Ming Lanying's field of vision suddenly became higher, and she exclaimed in fright, holding the little black panther in one hand and holding his shoulder tightly with the other.

The strong and powerful arms with crooked legs made her feel at ease, and Ming Lanying simply pointed the way.

The two quickly chased to the edge of the cliff, the cliff was steep, I didn't know the depth, Haidongqing flew straight to Ming Lanying.

The little black panther climbed into her arms, and Ming Lanying sat on Ye Jielu's arm and stretched out an arm to catch it.

"Little San, go down and have a look."

Hai Dongqing rubbed it, flapped his wings and flew down the cliff, and soon there was a cry.

Ming Lanying patted Ye Juelu excitedly, "It's down there, in winter and summer, halfway up the mountain!" ”

Ye Jielu didn't dare to let her get close to the edge of the cliff, "She should be able to hear you shouting." ”

Ming Lan Ying was angry and shouted towards the bottom of the cliff, "Winter and summer!" Where are you!! ”

There was only one side of the cliff, and there was no echo, and after a while, the Ming Lan Ying heard the sound of winter and summer.

"Sister-in-law!! I'm here!! ”

Listening to the voice, it is still full of energy, and it should not be hurt.

"Ye Jielu, go and take a look!"

Ye Juelu put Ming Lanying in a safe place, "I'll go and see, don't go over." ”

"Got it, go and see if you can pull people up!"

Ye Jielu poked his head out and didn't see anything, only heard Dongxia's voice.

"Brother Ye! Sister-in-law! I'm fine!! I climbed down the vine, and there was a small stone cave here, but the vine swung to the side, and I couldn't go up! ”

Hearing that the voice was not too far away, Ye Jielu looked at Ming Lanying helplessly, and frowned when he saw it, "Don't worry, the person is fine, let's find someone to bring a rope to pull her." ”

Hai Dongqing flew back and pasted next to her, Ming Lanying frowned, "It's so far away here, it's dark when you come back and forth to find them." ”

Ming Lanying was about to ask Hai Dongqing to send a message to Hebai, when she heard movement in the woods behind her.

When the two looked back, it was Meng Huaisu, who was embarrassed, and he led a team behind him.

"Lord, princess!"

Ming Lanying was surprised that he could find this, "How did you find this?" ”

Meng Huaisu gasped and pointed to Hai Dongqing on her arm, "I saw it and heard its cry." ”

The guards behind Meng Huaisu were out of breath at all, but Meng Huaisu was embarrassed, he was just a weak civil official, but the speed was not as slow as them.

Ye Juelu: "It just so happened that you came, and the ropes on your bodies were taken out to save people." ”

Meng Huaisu stepped forward in surprise, "Someone has found it?" Where is the winter and summer? Is there anything wrong with her? ”

Ming Lanying raised her eyebrows, this was the second time she had seen him lose his temper, all because of winter and summer.

"It's okay, that girl is very bold, she climbed down by herself."
