Hearing that Ling Ruo had woken up, Mo Yu was greatly relieved. She could finally get rid of this annoying Thirteenth Master. She quickly stood up and said to Yin Xiang who was still sitting on the ground: "Thirteenth Master, you can go in."
Yinxiang dusted himself with some boredom and stood up. Just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly heard the sound of jingling bells. When he lowered his head, he saw a few golden melon seeds beside his feet, which were tied around his waist. It leaked out of the flat money bag, and a hole slightly larger than the golden melon seeds was cracked at the bottom of the money bag.
"It seems like I really need to change my money bag." Yin Xiang shrugged and threw the golden melon seeds he picked up into Mo Yu's hand along with the money bag, "Here, take it, this is a reward from me, remember it next time I need to tell you a nice story."
"My slave, I don't want it," Mo Yu hurriedly declined. Although there weren't many things in the purse, they were all pure golden melon seeds, which were much more valuable than silver.
"What! I told you to take it, just take it, why is there all this nonsense." Yinxiang shouted displeased: "Aren't you going to return it home next year? These golden melon seeds are almost enough for you to buy some decent dowry. , find a good family to marry into."
As soon as Yinxiang entered the room, he saw Ling Ruo sitting in a chair quietly sipping tea. Ice was placed in the four corners of the room. As soon as he entered, he felt comfortable and all the heat disappeared. He took the tea handed to him by Shui Xiu. After drinking the herbal tea in one gulp, he took a long breath and then said, "I heard from my fourth brother that my sister-in-law is pregnant, so I came here to have a look."
"Thank you, Thirteenth Master." Ling Ruo's eyes flicked around Yinxiang a few times, and she pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Thirteenth Master and Mo Yu seem to have a good rapport?"
Yinxiang knew that she must have heard him talking to Mo Yu outside, so he didn't care. He chuckled and said, "It's quite fun to tease that little girl when I have nothing to do. I don't feel so annoyed anymore." He said. Here he took out the brocade box he had brought with him and handed it over: "I have a few Changbai Mountain wild ginseng bought from ginseng customers outside the customs. Although they are less than a hundred years old, they have been around for fifty or sixty years. They are just right for my sister-in-law." Replenish your body."
"Master Thirteen is too polite." After he ordered Shui Xiu to put the brocade box away, Ling Ruo looked at Yin Xiang with a golden tassel on his sleeve and said with a half-smile, "I don't know what's bothering Master Thirteen, can you?" Tell me about it?"
Yinxiang touched his smooth shaved forehead and sighed helplessly: "A few days ago, Huang Ama summoned me to the palace and said that he had decided to arrange a marriage for me. It was Zhaojia, the daughter of Shangshu Malhan. In July Then the marriage will be consummated."
"This is a good thing. Why does the Thirteenth Master look so depressed? Don't you like this Zhaojia family?" In fact, with Yinxiang's identity, it is already too late to accept his direct descendant Fujin, who is younger than him. The fourteenth elder brother and the fifteenth elder brother have already become amamas.
Yinxiang spread his hands and said: "The problem is that I don't understand this Zhaojia family at all, let alone like it or not." He paused and then said: "Sister-in-law, you also know that I want to find a couple. The women who are in love have spent their lives together hand in hand, so they have been pushing back and refusing to consummate the marriage. However, despite pushing and pushing, they still can't escape the fate of being accused of marriage."
"Master Thirteen can also talk about fate." Ling Ruo poured him another cup of herbal tea and said: "I heard that Zhaojia has a gentle nature and outstanding appearance. She is a rare good woman. Maybe she is you. I have been searching for the perfect match for many years but never found it."
"How can there be such a good thing in the world?" At this point, he shook his head and said with some dismay: "That's all, in fact, I knew that as an elder brother, I would not be able to escape this fate. It's just an idiot to be happy with each other.
It’s just a dream, now it’s time to wake up.”
His words left Ling Ruo speechless and could only make Yinxiang think more openly. After all, Kangxi's golden mouth had been opened, and there was no room for change. There were gains and losses in life, and Yinxiang was getting something that seemed unattainable.
Brother's identity has also lost a lot, such as freedom... He will never be able to choose his spouse like an ordinary man, even if he has found the woman who wants to stay together, because his marriage can only be done by
The emperor decides.
Fortunately, Yinxiang is a cheerful person. Although he is unhappy, he does not get into trouble. I believe he will figure it out in time.
And she believed that the gentle and virtuous Zhaojia would be a good match for Yinxiang. Love does not have to be grand; sometimes, a steady flow can go further.
Yinxiang told her that the Ministry of Etiquette had set the wedding date on the seventh day of July, and asked her to come with Yinzhen to drink her wedding wine. Don't forget it.
After saying a few more words, Yinxiang stood up and left. As soon as he left, his back legs came forward to say that Dr. Xu had arrived.
Rong Yuan... Looking at that extremely familiar figure, Ling Ruo couldn't describe how she felt in her heart. Once upon a time, she and he both thought that the other was their lifelong lover, but now they have become Ling Fujin and Imperial Physician Xu.
"You shouldn't have come." She said to the gentle man.
He gave her a smile as bright and warm as the autumn sun, as always, "Do you still remember what I said to you? As long as I, Xu Rongyuan, am alive, I will do everything possible to protect you and never let you be harmed.
"
Tears fell silently, leaving a trace of injury in mid-air, "But I'm afraid of hurting you!" Her becoming Yinzhen's Fujin was already a huge blow to Rong Yuan, and now she is pregnant with Yinzhen.
His flesh and bones, this kind of pain was undoubtedly stabbing Rong Yuan's heart with a knife. How could he bear it?
He smiled and stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears that kept rolling down Ling Ruo's cheeks. However, at the moment when they were about to touch, he remembered their identities, and his eyes dimmed. He took back his cold and warm hands and said softly: "As long as you
That's fine, I won't get in the way. I will do my best to ensure that you give birth to your child safely, because he is your child."
"Brother Rong Yuan..." Rong Yuan's last words made Ling Ruo burst into tears. In this life, she owed Rong Yuan too much. She only hoped that she would have the opportunity to repay him in the next life.
"It's Imperial Physician Xu." Even breathing was painful, but he still had the strength to correct Ling Ruo's address, "Okay, please stretch out your hand and let me feel your pulse. I heard from Fourth Brother that you are unhappy.
Very serious.”
Ling Ruo nodded and wiped away the tears on her face, then put her hand on the soft cushion and asked Rong Yuan to feel her pulse. Rong Yuan had a cup of tea for a foot consultation before taking back her hand and saying with a light breath: "Fu Jin
"My pulse is still good, but I can't eat because of my illness, which makes De Fujin a little weak. Also, has Fujin been very fond of eating sour food recently?"
Shuixiu happened to bring a cup of tea over. Hearing this, he interrupted and said: "My master has been very fond of sour food since he was pregnant, especially sour plum soup. He drinks several cups of it every day. Is there anything wrong? But the servant listens to the house.
The old man said that all pregnant women are like this."
"It's normal for pregnant women to like sour food, but if they eat too much sour food, it will easily hurt their stomach. Fujin was so happy that she couldn't eat anything. Her stomach was already empty and she suddenly ate so many sour foods. How could her stomach endure it? So.
From now on, Fujin must not eat sour food, especially that sour plum soup."
Shui Xiu said in embarrassment: "But apart from these sour foods, the master can't eat anything else. Is it possible that he will be hungry?!"
Rong Yuan ordered her to get a pen and paper and said: "Don't worry, I will prescribe Fujin a few doses of medicine to reduce the symptoms of nausea and vomiting, so that she can eat something light, and she can recover after the first few months."
He had been thinking about this prescription for a long time. Before writing down each medicine, he would carefully consider its pharmacology and whether it would conflict with other medicines.
After handing the prescription to Shuixiu, he added: "From now on, the ministers will come to check Fujin's pulse every day, but the doctors heal the body but not the mind. The most important thing is that Fujin should try his best to keep his mood happy during this period.
It’s too much effort and effort.”
After seeing Ling Ruo write it down one by one, Rong Yuan asked Shui Xiu to take all the rouge and gouache that Ling Ruo was using and check it carefully to see if there was any musk in it. The most taboo thing for pregnant people is musk. If you use it accidentally,
If you smell it or smell it too much, it will cause miscarriage, which is far more terrible than safflower which needs to be taken to be effective.
Although Rong Yuan entered the palace not long ago, he has already seen the cruelty of the harem. Those beautiful and beautiful women plotted against each other in order to compete for the king's favor and used any means. In their eyes, there is no right or wrong, only success and failure.
The path to a glorious harem can lead to the abandonment of all conscience and humanity.
As for musk, it can not only cause the stillbirth of a child that has already formed, but can also make people unable to have children forever, so naturally it has become their favorite thing.
Although Prince Yong's Mansion is not a harem, there will still be strife and frame-ups. The Li family back then was the best example. Now if Ling becomes pregnant, she will definitely become the target of public criticism, so she must be careful.
Seeing Rong Yuan picking up and putting down the boxes of rouge and gouache, Shui Xiu pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Dr. Xu. The master asked Dr. Chen to check these things as early as the last time he came.
Once passed, there will be no problem.”
Rong Yuan smiled and said nothing, still repeating the same action in his hand. When he got the last box of powder that exuded a pleasant fragrance, his originally calm expression suddenly sank, and he picked out some of it with his fingers and placed it on the
Smelling carefully with the tip of her nose, this move made Ling Ruo's heart skip a beat, and she hurriedly asked: "Mr. Xu, is there something wrong with this box of fragrant powder?"
He did not answer immediately, but looked at Shui Xiu, "Think carefully, had this box of fragrant powder been examined by Dr. Chen at that time?"
Shui Xiu thought about it carefully and said with certainty: "Yes, I remember it very clearly."
Coldness flashed in Rong Yuan's eyes, and he said coldly: "He looked at it, but he didn't tell you that this box of perfume contains musk."
"Musk?!" Shuixiu exclaimed. She had heard someone say that pregnant women should never smell musk. It could cause fetal disturbances at the least, or redness and miscarriage at worst.
"Then, does it matter, Master?" Shui Xiu asked at a loss, fearing that something might happen to Ling Ruo.
"Don't worry, I checked Fujin's pulse just now and everything is fine. And there is a lot of powder left in this box. I think Fujin hasn't used it for a long time, so it is a blessing. But if I have anything in the future, I must
Let Wei Chen read it before using it." He warned earnestly. If he hadn't insisted on checking it just now, this box of fragrant powder would have been leaked. Once Ling Ruo used it, the consequences would be disastrous.
"I understand." Ling Ruo held her sleeves tightly to calm herself down, but there was still a sticky, clammy feeling spreading on her back, soaking her underwear, and she said in a cold voice: "Mr. Chen...
"
"Not every imperial physician is trustworthy." He said it very cryptically, but Ling Ruo already understood what he meant. Imperial Physician Chen must have been instructed by someone else to deliberately leave this box of fragrant powder. Who is it?
Can't wait to hurt her child? It's so disgusting!
There was hatred in my heart, and even my eyebrows were stained with hostility.
