Zhao Yu and Su Luoheng were going to discuss how to make it more reasonable for the death of so many servants in the Shangshu Mansion. Zhu Ying said jokingly: "I'll just call it a plague if you insist on it, and that won't make things better!"
Zhao Yu stretched out his hand and poked her forehead gently, saying, "Do you think the Shangshu Mansion has been sealed by the emperor?"
Zhu Ying touched her forehead and said angrily: "Can you please stop being so handsy? What should I do if I am misunderstood?"
Zhao Yu glanced at Su Luoheng coldly and said, "Who are you afraid of misunderstanding?"
Su Luoheng lay innocently on the gun, feeling a chill down his back.
Zhu Ying said angrily: "I am Si Youguo's fiancé!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the door. Zhao Yu said angrily: "Come back!"
"What are you doing back here?" Zhu Ying half-turned around to meet his gaze, "They are going to bring me in in a sedan chair with eight carriages. Can you do that?"
Her reasons were high-sounding, and Zhao Yu couldn't say anything. He slapped the table hard.
Zhu Ying turned around and left without looking back. Zhao Yu could only watch her leave, sulking alone.
Su Luoheng, who was accompanying Zhao Yu, secretly complained in his heart, Miss Zhu, why did you make Prince Chun so angry? How could he bear such overwhelming anger alone?
Su Luoheng moved very quickly. All the maids and slaves in the house had been replaced, and the maids in the old lady's house were also new. When Zhu Ying entered the house, she saw the maids waiting for the old lady to take medicine.
When the old lady saw her putting down the medicine bowl, she asked anxiously: "Miss Zhu, you are here. Have you visited my son?"
Zhu Ying said: "Old madam, please be at ease. I have already gone to check Master Shangshu's pulse. He is not seriously ill, but he is too seriously injured and is still in a coma for the time being."
"This is all my fault," the old lady took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears, "If I had been braver and given up my life, maybe..."
Zhu Ying consoled her: "Old Madam, you don't need to think too much. Fortunately, you followed her wishes at that time. Otherwise, your Su family might not have existed."
The old lady did not expect that the second lady was so vicious. She slumped on the chair and shook her head sadly: "You are doing evil, you are really doing evil!"
Zhu Ying grabbed her wrist and felt her pulse, and said: "Old madam, don't get too excited. If you have any problems at this moment, I'm afraid he will go away with you as you tell him to do after Mr. Su wakes up."
The old lady wiped away her tears and cheered up. She wanted to live for her children and grandchildren. She cheered up and said, "Miss Zhu, I feel better after taking the medicine, but I feel weak and have no energy."
Zhu Ying let go of her hand, picked up the pen and wrote another prescription, saying: "This is a sequelae. Take the medicine according to this prescription and drink three doses of decoction and you will be fine. You lie down and I will give you acupuncture to drain the remaining poison from the body."
"
The maid helped the old lady lie down on the couch. Zhu Ying applied the needle. After half a stick of incense, she took out the needle and said to the old lady: "Old lady, you are weak and need to rest a lot these days. You can only eat porridge for three days."
White flour cannot be replenished."
After taking care of her, she and Nongzhu left the old lady's yard. It was already dark at night, and the moon had already hung on the treetops. The two walked along the path towards their hut, and at the three-way intersection that led to the main yard
Zhu Ying stopped.
Nongzhu looked in the direction of the main courtyard and said, "Miss, do you want to see the prince?"
"Who wants to see him!" Zhu Ying turned around and walked towards her cabin.
After returning to the house, Zhu Ying had no sleep at all after having slept during the day. She couldn't help but think about all the things she had with Zhao Yu. She was angry with herself for being so worthless, so she took out her master's notes and read them carefully, using her favorite words.
He used medical skills to distract himself, but the effect was not good.
She could only read a few lines with the book and couldn't help but look out the window. She thought that Zhao Yu would come to see her before leaving, but she didn't expect that he would go back to the palace directly after discussing with Su Luoheng.
She pretended to be nonchalant on the outside, but she was sad and sad inside. Since Zhao Yu was so ruthless, she would not beg him humbly.
In the next few days, Zhu Ying stayed at Shangshu Mansion obediently, but Nongzhu brought back a lot ()..co
.
Rumors among the people.
It was rumored that the rice merchant who supplied rice to Shangshu Mansion was arrested. The rice he sold to Shangshu Mansion was accidentally mixed with rat poison, causing many people to die in Shangshu Mansion and was sentenced to exile.
Zhu Ying took pity on this unlucky businessman for a few seconds. In the power struggle of the big shots, the little guy could only act as cannon fodder. He could only blame him for his bad luck.
The emperor originally wanted to hold a banquet to entertain King Chun on his triumphant return, but two ministers in the court fell ill and so many people died in vain. He felt deeply ominous and led all the ministers to the Huguo Temple to pray for peace and prosperity for the country and the people.
The emperor left for more than half a month. During this more than half a month, Zhao Yu did not come to see Zhu Ying again. Although she kept warning herself in her heart that she would have to leave this country sooner or later, she could not let go of him.
She thought that time would dilute everything she missed about him, but his rich and handsome face appeared in front of her eyes all the time...
She often sat in front of the window and watched Nongzhu practicing her sword in a daze. She had lost all her charm and cuteness in the past. Nongzhu put away her sword and wiped her face with a towel and saw the lady's demented look. She began to doubt that she was blindly
Is it wrong to remind the young lady to keep her distance from the prince?
At this time, Su Luomei came over wearing a white gown and veil, while Qiuyue dressed up as a book boy.
Nongzhu was a little surprised. Su Luomei was a well-behaved young lady, so it was strange for someone to behave so abnormally today.
Su Luomei walked up to Zhu Ying and called: "Miss Zhu!"
Only then did Zhu Ying come back to her senses and look at the two masters and servants. Zhu Ying asked in surprise: "What are you..."
Su Luomei's face turned bright red and she said, "Miss Zhu, today is the day when Qihuoju is auctioned every year in Biancheng. They have all kinds of novel and interesting objects. Let's go and take a look together?"
"Qihuoju?" Zhu Ying looked at Nongzhu, who shook his head.
Both of them travel a lot and have never heard of the name "Qiwuju".
Su Luomei was deeply surprised that Zhu Ying's master and servant did not know about "Qihuoju" and said: "This is a prosperous time in Biancheng, and everyone with a bit of respect in Biancheng will go there."
"Really?" Zhu Ying's first reaction was: Will Zhao Yu go?
Crazy, she is crazy!
Su Luomei's eyes widened in disbelief and said, "Miss Zhu, do you really not know?"
She thought that because Zhu Ying was so different, it was impossible that she would not know about this grand event that all the young masters in Biancheng would not miss. Little did she know that the place Zhu Ying least wanted to stay was in Biancheng. Although she was from Biancheng, she would not miss it every time.
They always leave immediately after finishing their work and never stay, so she really doesn’t know where Qihuoju is?
Zhu Ying joked, "So all the ladies have to dress up like you and sneak in?"
Su Luomei's face turned even redder and she said, "Miss Zhu, please stop teasing me. It's because of my strange illness that I secretly sneaked into Qihuoju. They also sell all kinds of precious medicinal materials. I'm here
This time I want to see if there are any suitable medicinal materials that I can prepare for grandma and dad. Miss Zhu, you are an expert in appraising medicinal materials. Can you go with me?"
"certainly."
Zhu Ying finally regained her energy. Even if Su Luomei didn't invite Zhu Ying to go with her, Zhu Ying would definitely not not join in the fun now that she knew it. She immediately called Nongzhu and the two back to the room to change clothes.
Qihuoju only opens its doors for business on August 15th every year for three days. It is located in the busiest place in Biancheng, next to Juxian Restaurant.
Juxian Restaurant is one of the best restaurants in Bian City, with a four-story building, purple paint, and gilded signboards. It is decorated with great splendor. The chef of Juxian Restaurant is famous far and wide, and people come here for no reason.
Looking at Qihuoju again, it seems very shabby. Although it is also a four-story building, there is only one building. The walls are gray and white, and some places on the walls are mottled and peeling. The small facade is in tatters, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
A feeling that it is about to close down.
Su Luomei didn't want others to know that she was from Shangshu Mansion, so she didn't use the mansion's sedan chair and walked to Qihuo Residence with Zhu Ying and his servants.
Before the four of them arrived at Qihuoju, they already saw an endless queue at the door of Qihuoju. The queue ()..co
.
They are tall, short, fat and thin, they are old and young, but they have one common characteristic: they are either rich or noble.
Zhu Ying's master and servant looked at it in shock. This formation was really huge, no less than the scene when everyone in Fengxian City went to see the Jinfeng Opera Troupe.
However, Master and Servant Zhu Ying quickly understood why the queue was so long. First, there were many people who wanted to enter Qi Huo Ju, and second, there were people checking invitations at the door of Qi Huo Ju.
Qihuoju originally only had a small facade. Now there is a big table at the door. The table blocks the entrance. Sitting behind the table is an uncle and a boy. They are both wearing uniform clothes. The words "Serving" are written in the center.
There is a big word "Qi" on it.
The uncle was drinking tea and the child was eating peanuts. The two of them slowly checked the invitations in the hands of the guests. The uncle glanced at the invitation and nodded, and the child put the person in. The uncle didn't say anything, so the child just kicked the person away. The one who was kicked out
People refused to leave and argued, so the speed became even slower.
Zhu Ying didn't ask about the invitation. Since Su Luomei brought her here, she must know how to get in.
Su Luomei took Zhu Ying to the front of the queue without queuing up. The two stragglers were checking the invitation in the hand of a big man.
The uncle glanced at the invitation and rolled his eyes. The boy stretched out his arms to stop the big man.
The big man refused to accept it. He pulled out the big knife from his waist and banged it on the table with a "clink" and asked: "Why don't you let me in? I am..."
Before the big man finished speaking, the kid beside him jumped up. Without saying a word, he hit him several times in the ear very quickly. Finally, he flew up and kicked his chest with both legs, kicking the big man's huge body away.
He was hit hard on the ground and passed out. No one expressed sympathy, and everyone was surprised...co
