Recently, I was planning to marry the eldest Xiao Kezhong and the second child Xiao Kexiao. It seems that this matter has to be postponed until the news passes. Princess Rouping couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this.
"It's early in the morning, don't sigh." Aunt Ying stepped forward and helped Princess Rouping up, who had finished dressing up.
"Mommy, you know even if I don't tell you. If I could have made the decision earlier and separated from my second wife, even if I gave them more money, I wouldn't be in this situation now."
"I know, I know everything." Aunt Ying comforted her, "I don't blame you. You were not in good health before and there was nothing you could do about it. You could only let go and let the second wife torment you."
Princess Rouping was suddenly startled: "Mommy, since I returned home from playing Xuan Bao, my health seems to be getting better day by day."
"Because the county master is your lucky star." Aunt Ying said with a smile.
Looking at Aunt Ying, Princess Rouping realized it was only now that she discovered a clue: "Are you hiding something from me?"
After waving to signal the maidservants who were following her to step back, Grandma Ying approached the princess of Rouping and reported: "The princess was secretly given something that hurt her body, and the county princess asked her slaves to drink water for you every three to five days.
Add a grain of this inside."
Aunt Ying took out a small bottle, opened it and poured it out. Princess Rouping saw three small black pills rolling in her palm.
"Is this a pill?"
"No, it's a pill." Grandma Ying lowered her voice, "The county boss said this is the Qingxin Pill left by her master, which can detoxify and remove impurities from the body."
"Pure Heart Pill?" Princess Rouping leaned down and sniffed it with excitement on her face, "This elixir is very precious!"
Aunt Ying was stunned for a moment and then said: "Is it very precious? I don't know. I'm just giving you one pill according to the county master's instructions. The county master told you that after this bottle, your body will be cured."
"This bottle? How many pills do you need?"
"My slave has counted twenty pills in total, but now these three are the only ones left."
"I'm well now. Don't waste this elixir anymore. You should put it away first."
"Princess, do you know this elixir?"
"There are some in the palace, but there probably aren't many left. The Qingxin Pill was refined by the imperial master back then."
"The County Lord's Qingxin Pill may not be the same as the Qingxin Pill in the palace."
"A few years ago, when I was bedridden, the Queen Mother secretly gave me a few pills. This is the taste."
At this time, the servants' voices came from outside to say hello, and then they heard the little maid report: "Princess, the county princess has come to say hello to you."
"Xuanbao is here, let her in quickly." Princess Rouping raised her voice.
Walking into the house, Xuan Bao raised his eyes and saw the small bottle in Princess Rouping's hand. She smiled knowingly and bowed obediently to say hello.
When Xuan Bao sat down, Aunt Ying came forward to plead guilty: "County Master, please punish me. I did not hide this from the Princess."
"Mother Ying, get up quickly. I don't blame you at all. With your loyalty to your mother, I already expected that you couldn't hide it. It's been beyond my expectation to hide it for so long."
"Thank you to the county master for your understanding." Aunt Ying stood up.
Without Princess Rouping's orders, Grandma Ying took everyone out and left, giving the mother and daughter space to talk alone.
"Xuan Bao, where did this Qingxin Dan come from? There is this in the palace, it was refined by the imperial master back then." Princess Rouping stared at Xuan Bao closely.
She is most afraid that her daughter will do something she shouldn't do. Princess Rouping knows how precious the Qingxin Pill is. Since the Imperial Master left, one pill has been missing every time she uses it. There are not many left in the palace, so every pill is registered.
It can be said that no one except the Empress Dowager and the Emperor has the right to use it if it is included in the register.
"The ones in the palace were refined by my nephew." Xuan Bao blinked and stepped on it, "His master's alchemy skills are not very good. If it comes to him, even if he is better than his master, he will not be able to compare with these."
Yes, I almost forgot about this. Xuanbao is from Tianxuan Sect and is the junior uncle of the Imperial Preceptor. Princess Rouping felt relieved.
"Then who refined these for me to take?"
"The ones made by my master must be better than those in the palace." Xuan Bao raised his head and raised his chest confidently.
The little doll didn't lie. The Qingxin Pill given to Grandma Ying was indeed left behind by an experienced Taoist master, but now she can also refine it herself.
"It's too precious, it's too precious. I ate so much." Princess Rouping suddenly had a thought flash in her mind, "Xuanbao, Cuihuan said that Fang Rongru attacked me back then. Is it because of you that I was able to escape?"
Why did the Queen Mother reward me with several Qingxin Pills?"
Xuan Bao suddenly realized: "Yes, I was wondering that if Fang Rongru dared to attack Cui Huan, she must have calculated that you would not pursue it, but the whole thing seems to be full of loopholes. Now that I think about it, she attacked you because you took
I took the Qingxin Pill, so it didn’t kill you, but it broke your body.”
"Then why did you tell Auntie Ying that I had been given something that hurt my body?"
"Later on, Fang Rongru probably changed her mind, because it was more beneficial for her to have you bedridden, so she gave you very little weight."
"So that's it."
Everything gradually became clear, and Princess Rouping couldn't help but feel scared. She almost died a few years ago.
"Princess." Aunt Ying walked in.
Xuan Bao spoke before Grandma Ying: "Is there something going on in the second room?"
"The county master is smart, and he really guessed it right." Aunt Ying came in to report after receiving the news. "The second house said that the second lady had an evil spirit, and invited a monk who leads hair practice to do it."
"A monk who practices Buddhism?" Princess Rouping looked puzzled, "Isn't Fang Rongru always trusting Master Jingkong of Tianlong Temple the most?"
"I heard that Master Jingkong has gone into seclusion, and here is his disciple Master Yuanwu."
Xuan Bao lowered his head and snickered, "Fifth Uncle is such a wonderful Buddhist name. Yuan Wu? It doesn't exist in the first place. It's a bit interesting."
"It sounds weird, but it's good that Xiao Liao and Fang Rongru believe in him. You can ask people to keep an eye on him and do whatever they want. Anyway, the most important thing is not to get involved with our big family."
"My slave understands." Aunt Ying withdrew.
Fifth uncle, fifth uncle, I hope you can sing this play well. Xuan Bao really wants to go and see it, but she is afraid that something bad will happen to her.
"Little stupid treasure, invisibility charm." The old Taoist master's lazy voice sounded.
Yes, I am really stupid. I only thought of waiting for the news from my mother, but I did not think of hiding myself and going to watch the fifth uncle perform.
Xuan Bao couldn't sit still anymore. She found an excuse to leave her mother's Qinse courtyard, turned around and walked towards the West Crossing courtyard.
"County Lord." Dongxue grabbed Xuanbao and looked around before lowering his voice, "You are going to Xikuoyuan."
"Yes, let's go and see." The little doll said excitedly.
Xia Yu threw cold water and said, "Don't be too happy. If you go, you won't be allowed to enter the second room."
"I will go in even if you don't let me in."
"Are you planning to make a scene?" Dong Xue and Xia Yu said in unison, both nervous.
