Bianjing little doctor

Chapter 118

When the official ship arrived at Bianjing, it was already the third year of Huangyou's New Year's Eve.

The Bianhe River is shrouded in a cold mist, the lights on the water are rippling, and the boats are full of fragrance. Because it is New Year's Eve, there is no scene of white sails competing for crossing in the past, and the pier is rarely clean.

Xin Yi listened to the sound of the big ship approaching the shore, and looked at the bright lights of Bianjing City in the distance, feeling like returning home after a long absence.

The troops of the Imperial City Department had already been waiting on the pier, ready for battle.

As soon as the boat approached, a group of imperial guards rushed up to release the prisoners.

After Xin Yi got off the boat, he bid farewell to Fu Jiuqu, and hired a donkey cart to pick up the child at the princess's mansion.

Fu Jiuqu was busy with He Xu's case on the other side, so he probably couldn't take care of her. He was very talkative today. He not only asked Sun Huai to accompany her back to the house to report her mother's safety, but also specially asked Sun Huai to give her three coins, saying it was for the child. lucky money.

Xin Yi thanked happily, and talked and laughed with Sun Huai all the way to the Princess's mansion.

For the New Year's Eve, she was embarrassed to go empty-handed, so she bought some fruit hearts when passing by Panlou.She went to Fu'an Courtyard first, and Zhou Yiliu took the three children to the water pavilion to see the plum blossoms. Xin Yi paid a visit to the eldest princess and told her directly.

"The children have been bothering the mansion for the past few days, please trouble Your Highness."

She offered things up.

Of course, these fruits are not as exquisite as the ones in the eldest princess's mansion. The woman in charge of the Fu'an Court glanced at them, took them and handed them to the girl, signaling them to take them down with her eyes.

Seeing her expression and movements, Xin Yi smiled and didn't say much.

Zhao Yuqing frowned slightly, "Is it the happy ball bought by Pan Lou?"

Xin Yi saluted, "Yes. Minnen doesn't know what His Highness likes. Seeing a lot of people queuing up to buy this dumpling at Fanlou, I bought some here..."

After a pause, she said apologetically, "I am ashamed to come to pick you up on New Year's Eve. I know that the eldest princess's house doesn't lack anything, and she has a filial heart, but she doesn't have any presents that can be bought. I'm laughing at you."

The smile on Zhao Yuqing's face dissipated, "Miss Zhang is a caring person. I ate the happy ball in the early years, and said it originated from Tianzhu, and it was introduced to China along with the Buddhist scriptures in Tang Dynasty. Back then, my mother thought it was interesting and made it with her own hands. Dough, kneaded, mixed with sugar and honey...Knead into small balls, then printed with flowers, smeared with sesame oil, the appearance is very pleasing, I am so greedy, I want to take it as soon as I come out of the cage, almost burn my hands... "

Recalling the passing of her mother, the eldest princess seemed a little sentimental.

After a pause, she sighed with a smile, "I haven't used sweets very much these years, and this old woman let the girl take it down. But on this day, what could be more to my liking than Huanxituan?"

Zhao Yuqing was gentle and kind, and relieved Xin Yi, and explained the behavior of the mother-in-law and the girl, so that Xin Yi would not feel that they were disliking her for being cheap.

Xin Yi really likes the eldest princess, who looks slightly blessed and relieved.

"As long as the eldest princess likes it."

Zhao Yuqing smiled slightly.

"It happens to be a little hungry, let me have a taste."

The old woman took a look at Xin Yi, and quickly brought up the happy balls. The girl cleaned her hands after serving the eldest princess, slowly picked up one, and observed it with her fingertips for a while.

"The color of this happy ball is pleasing to look at. Hmm... it's sweet and sizzles, and it smells like honey."

She took a bite, her eyes suddenly opened.

This time there is no politeness, but sincere praise.One is used, and another is used, if the mother-in-law stopped and said that the imperial doctor told her to use less sweets, the eldest princess would probably have to get the third one.

"This happy ball still tastes like the one I ate when I was a child, and it's the same as my mother's..."

The eldest princess's joy was beyond words, and when she looked at Xin Yi, her gaze was even softer.

"Ms. Zhang has just returned to Bianjing, and I think it's too late to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner. Xingyue, go and get some of the Wuxin Pan, Baishiji, Hutojiaoya, and chicken, duck and fish that we have prepared at our house. Bring it back to Mrs. Zhang."

Xin Yi was slightly taken aback.

This is really opportunistic.

She bought it knowing that the eldest princess had such a story about the happy group. How could she have the nerve to take so many things back?Eating and taking again, what did it look like.

Xin Yi waved his hands again and again, "Princess, I have already prepared the New Year's goods before I left. There is something to eat at home, so don't bother, don't..."

The eldest princess gave her a reproachful look and was very persistent.

There is a possibility that she does not take things and refuses to accept favors, which means she has opinions on her.

"How can it be the same?" Zhao Yuqing said half-annoyed and half-blame, "What you prepare is yours, and what I give to you is my heart, and you cannot refuse."

In Song people's etiquette, delivering food is a very normal thing.

Especially the ones given by the eldest princess are even more precious.

Xin Yi had no choice but to thank him.

Zhou Yiliu got the news that he brought the three little ones over, and before he entered the door, he heard that the eldest princess wanted to reward Mrs. Zhang again, he paused, sighed slightly, and then came in with a smile.

San Nian was the fastest runner, "Mother..."

Before the voice fell, the little girl had already thrown herself into Xin Yi's arms, her legs swishing up like a monkey.

"You are finally back, mother, I miss you so much."

Xin Yi was hit by her and almost couldn't stand up, so he had to pick her up.

"With the eldest princess, are you obedient?"

"Yes. Three treasures are obedient." San Nian kissed Xin Yi on the face, then turned to look at Yi Nian and Er Nian, and said with a smile: "I made a bet with my big brother and second brother that my mother will definitely come back to accompany us for the New Year , They said no. Mother, I won, I knew, mother will definitely come back. "

San Nian's voice was light and fast, and the eldest princess couldn't help laughing.

Seeing this, everyone in the room laughed.

For a while, laughter and laughter continued.

Not seeing each other for a few days, Er Nian seemed a little shy, not as enthusiastic as San Nian, approached Xin Yi, stuck out his tongue, and rubbed against her side like a puppy, feeling embarrassed.

The thought was steady, and he bowed to her upright, "Mother."

Xin Yi was slightly taken aback, and praised with a smile.

"Good boy. It seems that you have learned a lot of rules from your aunt."

She put Sannian on the ground and saluted Zhou Yiliu to thank her.

"Miss Zhou has worked hard these past few days."

Zhou Yiliu smiled and shook her head, "Miss Zhang is polite, this is what an aunt like me should do. The children are very sensible."

The two smiled at each other.

Zhou Yiliu asked: "Ms. Zhang's trip went well, right?"

Xin Yi nodded, seeing that the eldest princess was also looking over, knowing that Fu Jiuqu was what they were worried about, so he comforted him: "The county king has dealt with a big case on this trip, and now he is going back to the Imperial City Secretary, and he has to go to the palace to see you." Officials, you won’t be able to return home until later.”

She spoke naturally because she was familiar with Fu Jiuqu's itinerary.

Zhou Yiliu didn't like it when he heard it.

How come she is an outsider, and now she has become the county king's sidekick?
The Eldest Princess didn't think too much, and sighed, "Elderly Chinese New Year is also busy. This child is really worry-free!"

Zhou Yiliu smiled and said: "The eldest princess was still talking about the county king yesterday, fearing that he would not be able to come back for the New Year. Now that he is back, we can have a reunion dinner together. The eldest princess should be happy."

Zhao Yuqing was amused by her talk, nodded, and asked with a smile about Fu Jiuqu's injury and how they went to Shouzhou.

Xin Yi answered one by one.

What can be said is said, and what cannot be said is vague.

After a few people exchanged pleasantries, Xingyue prepared the eldest princess's reward.

On New Year's Eve, Xin Yi couldn't stay for a long time, so he left the house with his three children.

As usual, it was Zhou Yiliu who reluctantly sent it outside the gate of the house.

Xin Yi carried the three children into the car, "Go home, Mrs. Zhou, it's cold outside."

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yiliu's eyes became red with a single sentence.

"You three have to be obedient and obedient. Auntie will pick you up after the new year."

Seeing her sad, the children nodded sensibly.

Zhou Yiliu took out a smoky red embroidered pouch from his sleeve, took out three red paper bags from inside, and stuffed them to the children one by one.

"The New Year's money given by my aunt, take it."

The child glanced at Xin Yi, saw that she smiled and didn't answer, and then happily took it.

……

It was at this time that Fu Jiuqu came back on horseback.

With Cheng Cang and Duan Sui, they walked in a hurry with solemn faces.

After escorting a group of criminals to the prison in the imperial city, Fu Jiuqu entered the palace to meet him.This trip to Shouzhou ended up returning home after Chen Liu and Yongqiu, and he handled such a shocking case, the first person to ask him to explain to him was the current Zhao official family.

On the New Year's Day, the courtiers did not go to court, and the Zhao family was also on vacation.Fu Jiuqu went straight to Funing Hall.Concubine Zhang Gui walked forward, but he came behind, and there was a time difference.

When the official Zhao family heard about Yongqiu, they were so angry that they slapped the table, and immediately asked the inner eunuch to deliver an order to let Zhang Yaozhuo enter the palace for an audience, but was stopped by Fu Jiuqu.

Firstly, it will take time to try the case, and it is the New Year's Eve, so things are inconvenient, secondly, Zhang Yaozhuo must have known about it for such a big incident, so instead of going to Xingshi to inquire about the crime, let's see how he will plead for his son-in-law.

Three, seeing how the Zhao family loved Concubine Zhang so much, Fu Jiuqu thought it would be better to help the emperor's uncle figure out how to coax the beauty first, and then move Zhang Yaozhuo's son-in-law.

After such a delay, the uncle and nephew talked for a long time before Fu Jiuqu left.

As soon as he left the palace gate, he hurried back to the mansion, and happened to meet Xin Yi leaving.

Fu Jiuqu didn't seem to notice Zhou Yiliu, when she came over to give the child lucky money, she called Xin Yi.

"I have something to tell you."
