Qu Lan smiled faintly, "I understand. Wait until tomorrow. I will take Zhuiyue with me to meet the Queen Mother and her elders."
The three of them chatted for a while. Qu Rui looked at Yun Zhuiyue and said with a smile, "Your Highness the Crown Princess, your fox is still in my mansion. Do you plan to keep it in my mansion, or will I give it to you in person someday?"
Come to the house."
"Of course I have to send my fox back. Keeping it in your house won't give you an advantage in vain, right?" Yun Zhuiyue snorted.
Qu Rui raised his eyebrows and laughed, "I don't like foxes. I've helped you take care of it these two days, so you owe me a favor."
Yun Zhuiyue pointed at Qu Lan and said very straightforwardly, "This fox is the fox I caught to keep him company. If you want to ask for favors, you should go to his fox. If they are happy, maybe they can have a baby
When a little fox comes, I will give it to you when the time comes. Consider it a favor." But he secretly laughed in his heart and sent a little vixen over.
Qu Rui was stunned for a moment, then Shuanglang laughed, "Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess is indeed smart and smart, and she is a perfect match for my royal brother."
Qu Lan smiled and looked at Yun Zhuiyue tenderly, "Emperor brother, you should call her the emperor's sister-in-law."
Qu Rui was stunned again and smiled awkwardly, "As long as Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess doesn't mind, that's natural."
Yun Zhuiyue raised her eyebrows, "Of course I don't mind. Call the emperor's sister-in-law to come and listen! The emperor's sister-in-law will reward you with a candy."
The corner of Qu Rui's mouth twitched as if inadvertently, but he still called out to the emperor's wife in a somewhat muffled voice.
Yun Zhuiyue suddenly became proud and coughed a few times in a serious manner, "Not bad, not bad, the emperor is polite! Does the emperor need to eat candy?"
"No."
Yun Zhuiyue and Qu Lan looked at each other and smiled, but did not see Qu Rui's face darken.
Qu Rui stayed in the Prince's Mansion for a while longer.
Yun Zhuiyue picked up Qu Lan's ears.
Qu Lan had his ears tugged inexplicably, full of confusion and grievance, "Zhuiyue, what are you doing? What did I do wrong?"
Yun Zhuiyue grinned sadly, "Qu Lan, it turns out that my marriage gift is for your happiness, huh?"
Hearing this, Qu Lan smiled faintly, "That's right, you know, my body is broken..."
Yun Zhuiyue suddenly snorted coldly, turned around with a blue face, and laughed at himself, "I never thought that I, Yun Zhuiyue, would have the day to surprise others. It's really a great honor."
Qu Lan came from behind her and gently held up her hair, "Zhuiyue, do you regret marrying me?"
Yun Zhuiyue turned around angrily and glanced at him, "It's not that I regret it, but I just feel a little sad. I'm just happy. Forget it, now that I've decided to marry you, no matter you are a pig, a dog, a prince or something, it doesn't matter whether you are married or not.
Or it's a happy occasion. I will follow you."
Qu Lan's eyes were as warm as jade, and his smile was a little warm, "When you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, but when you marry a dog, follow the dog?"
The corners of Qu Lan's lips slightly curved in a strange arc, and his dark eyes stared at her for a moment.
Did she know that he had put a lot of thought into granting the marriage this time. In the end, he got the royal decree by using a happy method.
Yun Zhuiyue glanced at him, a bit domineering and arrogant, "Can't you choose a nice word?"
Qu Lan smiled half-heartedly, "The husband sings and the wife follows?"
Yun Zhuiyue hummed, "That's wrong, a woman sings her song and her husband follows her!"
Qu Lan laughed and said, "Okay, let's go! Chaiyue, you heard what my third brother just said. Let's drive into the palace tomorrow and meet the queen. Sooner or later, we have to go to the palace."
"
Yun Zhuiyue pinched her nose thoughtfully and suddenly looked at him, "Qu Lan, I just arrived here. I know nothing about this palace. Tell me about any important people in this palace.
, I will pay special attention to it in the future."
Qu Lan was not displeased, she narrowed her eyes slightly, smiled and said, "Okay." He gently pressed her to sit down, "Zhuiyue, sit down first, I will tell you slowly."
Yun Zhuiyue did not refuse. After sitting down, she listened carefully to what he said about everyone in the palace...
*
Before entering the palace, Yun Zhuiyue went to see Yao Lao.
Yao Lao spends his whole year in the pharmacy, either studying this herb, that flower, this medicine, or that elixir.
Yao Lao always makes his own medicine.
Behind the pharmacy is a huge alchemy furnace, which is taller than two heads. When the medicine is being refined, there is a sizzling sound of fire, and the high temperature around it makes the entire pharmacy continue to heat up.
This kind of temperature is not something that most people can bear. There are exceptions.
Yao Lao is an exception. He is obsessed with refining and making medicine and stays in this pharmacy almost every day.
He has long been accustomed to this kind of high temperature. He is even used to it to the point of falling in love with it.
As long as he doesn't face the high temperature for a day and faces the normal temperature, he will feel uncomfortable all over.
When Yun Zhuiyue entered the pharmacy, she felt the temperature was unbearable for ordinary people, as if it was about to scorch herself.
Before she fully entered the pharmacy, she had the urge to turn around and run away.
But for some reason, she endured it.
As soon as he stepped through the threshold of the pharmacy, a cold voice sounded with displeasure.
"Since you can't adapt to the environment of the pharmacy, please leave. Don't bother me! I don't welcome people who disrespect medicine!"
This voice sounded like it came from an old man. Although he was cold and unhappy, he was obsessed with medicine and had no regrets.
Yun Zhuiyue suddenly felt funny. Unfortunately, he imagined that many people had come to this pharmacy before.
But because they can't adapt to the environment here, they complain and dislike it.
Yun Zhuiyue's whole body felt like it was being roasted by fire, but because of the old man's stubborn words, it suddenly became much cooler.
She dove into the pharmacy, stood at the door, and bowed slightly, "Yao Lao."
Yao Lao seemed to have not expected that someone had actually come in. He saw Yun Zhuiyue bowing again, his frown slightly relaxed, and there seemed to be a faint smile on his face.
Yao Lao is a gray-haired old man. Judging from his face, he doesn't seem that old. He looks about fifty years old, but he is less than sixty years old anyway.
However, perhaps due to years of worrying about refining medicine, his hair and beard have turned white. He does not look ugly, on the contrary, it is quite funny and makes people feel funny.
Yun Zhuiyue smiled and said, "Mr. Yao, although I am a little uncomfortable with the environment here when I first entered this pharmacy. However, I do not disrespect medicine. On the contrary, I am very interested in medicine."
Yao Lao glanced at her thoughtfully, "Are you really interested in medicine?"
Yun Zhuiyue nodded, "Of course it's true. If Yao Lao doesn't dislike it, I would like to ask Yao Lao to accept me as his apprentice and teach me how to refine medicine and make medicine."
"Do you want to learn refining medicine and making medicine?" Yao Lao twitched his white beard as if somewhat unexpectedly, and looked directly at Yun Zhuiyue with a pair of sharp eyes.
