"Yes! Sister, the food you cook is so delicious. Why didn't you know about it before?" Zixuan also asked curiously while eating.
In comparison, although Yun Qiang was also curious, he behaved much more gently and kindly, "Bing'er, why did Mom never know that your cooking is so delicious?"
Xia Zibing secretly took a breath, knowing that they would ask this. Fortunately, she was prepared: "Mom, Master, Zixuan. I also learned it from an expert half a year ago, but then she left. So I have been studying
, don’t you dare to show your embarrassment.”
Well, she did have a master to learn how to cook. And he was a woman.
"Oh!" Zhong Jiuli's eyebrows danced with pride, "Bing'er, if this is the case, then it will be a blessing to be my teacher."
Ahem, he has already made a plan. From now on, he will never let his servants order food. If he wants to eat, he will directly ask the people from Hongbin Building to deliver it immediately. Anyway, Bing'er's people are there, so they don't dare to do anything to him.
"Yes! Sister, I want to eat these delicious food in the future. Can I ask the people from Hongbin Tower to send them directly?" Zixuan asked happily. The thirteen-year-old boy seemed to be more mature than Qin Yuyan.
Childish.
"Of course." Xia Zibing coaxed with a smile.
She was suddenly really curious about the child's life experience. One day, she would try to use acupuncture to see if it could awaken the child's memory. She shouldn't be selfish and keep him by her side for her own sake. Perhaps, with such a lovely child, he
His parents will definitely miss him very much.
The three of them sat down quietly and tasted the dish. Xia Zibing brought a lot today, which was enough for the four of them to have a full meal.
Xia Zibing picked up the rice and asked while holding the vegetables: "Master, do you know where my senior brother's home is?" She knew that what Yan'er needed most now was Yu Jue's care. But at this time, this
Guy, he doesn’t want to do it anymore. He really needs to be beaten.
"Your senior brother, he is actually from Donglin. He has been a playful person since he was a child. When he was studying medicine with me, he was often beaten." Zhong Jiuli pondered for a moment and then told her without hiding anything.
Xia Zibing frowned and said, "He is from Donglin, so why does he like to open a brothel so much? Do you know where he is in Donglin? I want specific family background."
Zhong Jiuli rarely stopped using his chopsticks, with a hint of sadness on his face: "Actually, I don't even know the specific background of your senior brother."
"How could it be?" Xia Zibing's voice rose slightly. It was obvious that she was a little excited.
"Why are you asking this?" Zhong Jiuli found out that Xia Zibing attached great importance to this matter, and he became even more curious.
"Just curious!" Xia Zibing replied lightly. Some things may be better left unexplained.
Zhong Jiuli didn't doubt anything, so he believed it naturally, "I actually met your senior brother in a dense forest in Donglin Kingdom. At that time, he was only thirteen years old and he was very cute. I saved him as a teacher."
I married him and then taught him medical skills. But after only three years, this kid left without saying goodbye. The second time we met, you brought him here."
"Then in the past three years, you haven't asked about his family background?" Xia Zibing looked helplessly angry at Hu Yanyu who would never leave without saying goodbye.
"Forgot!" Zhong Jiuli replied simply.
"Uh..." Xia Zibing suddenly had the urge to hit a wall. Can this master be said to be the best?
"Then you accepted him just because he was cute?" Xia Zibing raised her eyes again and asked. Didn't Zhong Jiuli say that he was very harsh in accepting his apprentice?
Although Huyan Yujue is also very smart, there are many smart people in the Three Kingdoms. There must be other reasons for this.
But what Xia Zibing didn't expect was that this question would trigger countless memories of Zhong Jiuli. It was rare that he looked serious, as if he was immersed in countless pains. Xia Zibing was shocked, what was going on here. Master never
They are all careless. If he is silent or stops smiling, it can only prove that he is angry.
"Master..." Xia Zibing couldn't understand Zhong Jiuli's expression. To put it simply, it was really hard to see the serious expression on Zhong Jiuli's face. This was really the first time.
"Actually, Jue'er looks a lot like Shishi's child."
It took a long time before I heard these words come out of Zhong Jiuli's mouth.
Only then did Xia Zibing understand why Hu Yanyujue became Zhong Jiuli's apprentice. However, a new question aroused Xia Zibing's curiosity.
"Master has a child?"
He thought that this man in his forties was a lonely doctor. Unexpectedly, it turned out that there was an unknown story behind Zhong Jiuli.
Zhong Jiuli's serious expression gradually turned into a warm smile, "Yes! If he is still here, I think he will be a very cute boy. As cute as Zixuan."
These words undoubtedly aroused Xia Zibing's curiosity again. "Master, please make it clear. Maybe we can look for it again!"
It has been more than a month since Xia Zibing lived in the house. It was only today that Xia Zibing completely understood this old man. His playfulness was just a way to numb his nerves. After practicing medicine for decades, he saved lives.
There are so many wives and children of other families, but I am empty-handed and have no one to fall in love with. Haha, no wonder he likes Zixuan so much. It turns out that Zixuan is as old as his children.
"Forget it! I have traveled to every inch of the Three Kingdoms as my teacher, but I have never seen their mother and daughter. Now, they are so old. I have already felt calm." Zhong Jiuli looked at Xia Zibing, curled his lips, and smiled.
It was extremely heart-warming. With such a lovely apprentice accompanying me and Zixuan by my side, I was content.
"Have you heard a word from Master?" Xia Zibing further persuaded.
"You said?" Zhong Jiuli was slightly curious. He wanted to see what this girl would say.
"If we continue, there is still a half chance of success. But if we give up, we will definitely fail."
Zhong Jiuli thought for a while and felt that it made sense, so he slowly spoke: "I am a student of ### who likes medical skills because he studies hard and is not stupid. When he was twenty years old, he got a doctor from a famous doctor at that time.
The true biography of Jiuqu. He became his successor to the next generation. Once he became famous, he received countless patients. However, he refused many evil coercions in the world. But because the master was good at martial arts, they did not
What do you dare to do to me as a teacher?" Zhong Jiuli sighed, remembering that when he was young and wild, he eventually attracted the revenge of the world, "But that year, when he was thirty-two years old as a teacher, he met someone he liked.
He was a woman. So he had a child with her. But he never dreamed of it as a teacher."
When Zhong Jiuli said this, tears could not help but overflow his eyes. It can be seen that he really missed those days and his son. "When the child just turned one year old, he suffered a disaster. At that time, I
He went up the mountain to collect medicine, but when he came back, he saw that his wife and children were nowhere to be seen. He only left a letter, asking me to go to Wufeng Valley to treat the then owner of the valley." Zhong Jiuli sneered, "At that time
I was young and frivolous, and did not want to be coerced, so I went to save them with my bare hands and some poison for self-defense. Later, when I caught two people from Windless Valley and interrogated them, I found out that the mother and son had escaped."
Xia Zibing sighed slightly: "So, Master has been looking for their mother and son?"
Zhong Jiuli smiled vaguely, and his eyes were surprisingly dark: "I have traveled all over the world as a teacher, and I have been doing this all the time. But think about how the mother and son can live without the power to bind a chicken.
Until now?"
Xia Zibing didn't say anything else, and ate her rice with big mouthfuls. But her eyes looked at Zixuan vaguely. Could this child be the master's child? Then, how did this child survive these years?
of?
After eating, she brought Zixuan to Mingyuxuan and took his pulse herself. In the past, she was too busy to care about the child. Fortunately, she rescued the child in the palace. Otherwise, if it was really the child of the master.
What a pity that would be.
Xia Zibing followed what she learned from medical books and her master's own instructions, skillfully applying acupuncture at the Sibai point, Yingxiang point, and Shuigou point on the top of Zixuan's head. She also fumigated the needles with herbs. It was not removed until half an hour later.
"Zixuan, did you remember anything?" Xia Zibing asked gently.
"No!" Zixuan answered simply.
Xia Zibing was speechless. She had been working hard for half an hour, but it was of no use at all. She was really sad.
"Really? Think about it carefully, how did you get knocked unconscious and brought to the palace?" Xia Zibing stared at Zixuan unwillingly.
As for why it was said that he was knocked unconscious? That's because there was a blood clot in Zixuan's brain. It was obvious that he was knocked unconscious.
But when the word "knocked out" was mentioned, it undoubtedly evoked a series of vague memories in Zixuan.
"I don't know. I was hit from behind by someone. Then I lost consciousness." Zixuan answered seriously, but then there was a sudden burst of pain, "Sister, it hurts!"
Xia Zibing gasped and held Zixuan in her arms, "Forget it, take your time. Don't think about it."
"Yeah!" Zixuan smelled Xia Zibing's faint fragrance and fell asleep peacefully. Xia Zibing then called Li'er to hug her down.
I got up and prepared to go to bed, but I smelled that familiar scent again.
"Bing'er, do you hear that you are not allowed to hug that kid in the future?" Helian Mo Xiao turned around and declared his sovereignty domineeringly.
Xia Zibing was speechless, such a young child could be jealous. Seriously...
"Can you be successful?" Xia Zibing said angrily.
Helian Moxiao raised his eyebrows and his smile became more wild, "Okay!" So, he proudly walked over and pulled Xia Zibing into his arms, just like Xia Zibing held Zixuan just now. But he found that Xia Zibing's body was so small, lying on the
Helian Mo Xiao didn't take up much space in his arms. Helian Mo Xiao sighed lightly, "It's just that if I am too ambitious, your small body cannot bear it."
Xia Zibing suddenly felt that her brain was congested and her vision was dark. This man was so speechless. Why did he speak so uncleanly? Thinking about it, he felt a burst of anger. He glared angrily and jumped out of Helian Mo Xiao's arms.
"What are you doing here?" Xia Zibing's voice was very calm.
"You've already agreed to be my king's concubine, and you're still so domineering?" Helian Mo Xiao raised the corners of his mouth, his voice a little gentle.
Xia Zibing turned around, showing off her temper and getting angry: "When did I promise to be your princess? Wasn't that forced by you?"
Helian Moxiao smiled proudly, "Oh! So you have something to be afraid of too?"
"You..." Xia Zibing glared at the sword-like eyes, and really wanted to strangle this man to death. But then, she stopped being angry and smiled instead, "Helian Mo Xiao, listen, after I marry into the palace, I will feel better with you.
"Yes." Xia Zibing raised her eyebrows and said proudly, "I want you to dare not eat with me every day, and you have to be careful even if you drink water. And if you dare to touch this girl, I will destroy you."
"..." Helian Mo Xiao was completely speechless. He said that women's hearts are the most poisonous. How could a little girl be so poisonous? Phantom, can this girl really be married back?
"Okay! I will see how you can destroy me today." Helian Mo Xiao looked straight at Xia Zibing with his angry eyes, and then he pulled her into his arms and pressed her on the bed.
Huh, that's a joke. After fighting with this girl for so long, you still want to trick him with those little tricks?
"Helian Mo Xiao!!" Xia Zibing glared at him with a pair of big eyes. He wanted to kick him, but he was pressed tightly. Oh my God, he is growing up, "Helian Mo Xiao!"
Mo Xiao, you are shameless!"
"Don't even think about using those powders, otherwise, I will deal with it on the spot." Helian Mo Xiao kissed Xia Zibing's lips domineeringly.
"..." Xia Zibing was speechless. She held his face with her hands and took the initiative to meet him. But Helian Mo Xiao didn't fall for the trick, but moved his lips down a little distance and kissed her neck. Xia Zibing suddenly
I was stunned, it seemed like this trick didn't work.
"Helian Mo Xiao, do you just want to be mine?" Xia Zibing's words were filled with vicissitudes of life. How could she be a little disappointed with this man?
But these words undoubtedly awakened Helian Moxiao's sanity. Although he knew that this was Xia Zibing's provocation, it really touched the depths of his heart. Did he just want her? But, her heart,
How to get it! Can he really afford what she wants?
Helian Moxiao sighed secretly, and a look of disappointment flashed away in his deep eyes. His eyes, as dazzling as stars, instantly lost their luster.
"You should have a good rest!" After saying this, he turned and left the house.
Xia Zibing looked at Helian Mo Xiao's leaving figure, clenched her pink fists tightly, waved her long sleeves, and angrily swept all the things Helian Mo Xiao had sent to the ground. Staring at the bright moon, Xia Zibing's eyes were as clear as water.
A trace of perseverance flashed through her heart. She, Xia Zibing, is not someone to be bullied. Helian Mo Xiao, you are waiting for me.
But as soon as Helian Moxiao left, Qin Yunchen followed him in. Xia Zibing couldn't help but feel ashamed, why did he smell like alcohol.
"Don't you know that it's rude to break into someone's boudoir in the middle of the night?" Xia Zibing said coldly and angrily.
Qin Yunchen sneered: "Only he can come?"
Xia Zibing was speechless. Qin Yunchen walked over unsteadily and sat on the edge of the bed. His voice was still as gentle as before.
"I just want to know an answer!" Qin Yunchen said seriously, "Do you love me or him?"
"You're drunk!" Xia Zibing reminded lightly.
"Answer me!" His voice was slightly serious. It seemed that in Xia Zibing's memory, this man had never treated him like this before.
"I don't love anyone!" Xia Zibing's voice raised slightly, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Qin Yunchen stared at Xia Zibing in disbelief for a long time, and then said unbearably: "No!!" Qin Yunchen grabbed Xia Zibing's jade shoulders and shook them constantly, "We have experienced so much happiness together, do you love me?"
His voice was almost hoarse, "When we rode horses together, you laughed so happily. How dependent you were on me. Also, you were injured trying to save me on that boat trip. If you didn't love me, how could you do it?
?If he forced you, Binger, I will take you away."
"Yunchen, I can only treat you as a friend."
In fact, she had always thought that as long as Qin Yunchen was sincere to her, she would definitely like him. But now it turns out that she only regarded Qin Yunchen as a friend she could rely on.
"You love him, don't you?" Qin Yunchen's eyes suddenly flashed with bloodthirsty light, "But I and him are irreconcilable!"
After saying that, he turned around and left without any emotion.
"Yunchen!" Xia Zibing shouted, but no reply was heard. There is no greater sorrow than death, right?
Why do these two people have to be like this?
A night of light sleep. In the morning, the chirping of cicadas and the chirping of birds. A few rays of bright white sunlight playfully leaped into Mingyu Pavilion, Xia Zibing's bedroom. A pair of clear eyes seemed empty and lifeless at this moment.
.Just looking straight at everything outside the window.
It was already noon, but she was still lying there forgetting the time. It wasn't until Li'er couldn't bear it anymore that she walked in and asked her to get up for dinner. Only then did she realize that she had been thinking about it for so long this morning.
Xia Zibing had a hurried lunch at Ming Yuxuan. Then she sat on the trembling wooden chair in a daze out of boredom.
"Miss, Princess Manluo is here."
Seeing Li'er running over, she was sweating profusely. It was obvious that Li'er was nervous about this matter. But after all, she was a princess from another country, so Xia Zibing didn't blame her.
He just said a faint "Yes" and stopped thinking about anything and continued to lean on the trembling wooden chair in a daze.
"Oh, my sister is so elegant!" Her voice was as beautiful as the cry of an oriole. From a distance, you could tell that she was a delicate woman. If any man heard it, his soul would probably be taken away.
"It's Princess Manluo! Please sit down." Xia Zibing smiled faintly and greeted her politely, but she sat motionless and called Li'er for a cup of tea.
"Bold! Why don't you kneel down when you see our princess?" The maid on the side seemed to be intolerable to Xia Zibing's arrogance. Speaking of which, she followed Man Luo and knelt down and kowtowed wherever she went. And Ming Yuxuan was not that noble.
place. But the servants didn’t even lower their heads.
"Man Luo, you came to my place and brought a dog to bite people?" Xia Zibing asked calmly.
"You..." Xin'er was almost angry to death.
"Insolent! How can you be rude to Princess Bingyue? Slap her ten times!" Man Luo shouted sharply.
Only then did Xin'er remember that this woman in simple clothes had been named a princess a few days ago. It was not something she could get involved with. And she had already said her words and could not take them back. Watching another woman walk in next to the princess,
