Chapter 44: A serial plan to remove the thorn in the side ([-])

Last time, Ye Lingxi came to compare Baihu's height, and visually inspected Baihu's shoes. On the way back, she gestured to Lingdang again, took out her personal money from her purse and gave it to Lingdang, and thought of an excuse for her. , saying that it was made for a cousin who lives in a distant relative’s home.

Hehe was still a little worried that the people in the embroidery workshop would be suspicious, but Lingdang had already left with the money.After arriving at the embroidery workshop, I quickly finished the work and it will be available to pick up in two or three days.

Ye Lingxi handed the new clothes and shoes to Bai Hu. When Bai Hu didn't pick them up, she stuffed them directly into his arms and quickly slipped away with the bell.

Bai Hu looked at the clothes and shoes stuffed in his arms and stood in the yard for a while before turning back to the house.

After that, Ye Lingxi went to Kunning Palace and stayed until school was about to end in the afternoon before leaving. When she returned to Weiyang Palace, she didn't mention asking for leave. Aunt Li thought she had just come back from school.

After returning to his dormitory, Ye Lingxi divided the medicinal powder in the paper bag into four equal parts, wrapped each part in a piece of paper, and then poured one part into the tea cup according to the method taught by Bai Hu, and used After brewing with boiling water, the scum was filtered out after half a quarter of an hour. The color was like tea soup. He tested the temperature of the cup with his hand, and then brought the tea cup to Concubine Lan.

"Concubine, this is the tea I made. Can you try it, concubine?"

Concubine Lan took the tea cup, smelled the aroma first, then took a sip, and said encouragingly: "The taste is good, the aroma is also good." Then she asked, "What kind of tea is this made from? I have never tasted it before. "

Ye Lingxi replied playfully: "Don't tell the concubine. If the concubine knows, there will be no need for Lingxi to make tea. Lingxi will have to make tea for the concubine herself. She must be filial to her."

Concubine Lan usually drank only one or two sips of tea, but this time she drank the whole cup.

Half an hour later, the people in the imperial dining room brought dinner, and then Ye Lanchen came with Eunuch De. Ye Lingxi immediately slipped off the stool and ran over and threw herself on Ye Lanchen's calf with a soft and waxy voice. She called out to her father, and then took the hands of her father, mother, and concubine and led the two of them inside.

"Father, sit here." Ye Lingxi moved the stool for Ye Lanchen to sit down. "Concubine, mother, sit here." Ye Lingxi moved the stool next to her and let Concubine Lan sit down. "Lingxi sat here." She moved another chair. Sit on the stool on one side.

Ye Lanchen asked everyone else to go down, and poured a glass of wine to drink before even using his chopsticks.

"Your Majesty, let's have some food first." Concubine Lan picked up a piece of sweet and sour plum roasted goose and put it into Ye Lanchen's bowl.

Ye Lanchen said with a smile: "As long as I come to Lan'er, all my troubles will be solved."

Concubine Lan's cheeks were slightly red, and her eyebrows were curved into a gentle and pleasant smile.

"Father, have you been very busy these days? You don't have time to see Lingxi." Ye Lingxi looked aggrieved.

Ye Lanchen smiled and said, "When father is not busy anymore, I will push you to play on the swing."

"Father and mother concubine push together." Ye Lingxi said playfully.

Ye Lanchen said dotingly: "It's up to you."

Halfway through the meal, Eunuch De came in and reported to Ye Lanchen that the imperial concubine was here. He whispered something in Ye Lanchen's ear. Ye Lanchen put down his chopsticks, reached out and shook Concubine Lan's hand. She went to bed early, told Ye Lingxi to go to bed early, and left with Eunuch De.

Lan Fei stopped eating after two or three mouthfuls. Although there was nothing visible on her face, Ye Lingxi could feel a bit of disappointment. After all, which woman in the world doesn't want to be together for the rest of her life...

"Mother Concubine, Brother Su came to the study today. Master asked him to answer a question. Brother Su answered quickly and well. Master praised Brother Su for being a junior...a tadpole." Concubine Lan was amused by the last two words, "It is the juniors who are to be feared. "As she spoke, Concubine Lan stretched out her hand and wrote two words on the table for Ye Lingxi to read. Ye Lingxi immediately flattered her and said that her mother-in-law's handwriting was beautiful, and took Concubine Lan to teach her how to write more words. Character.

At night, Ye Lingxi was lying on the bed, already thinking about how to deal with Aunt Li. In the last life, she learned a trick from the oiran Zhao Ce brought back. Mixing several kinds of pollen together can attract bees and insects. The oiran will These kinds of pollen were added to his own gouache, and he deliberately went to the garden to attract bees and butterflies. Later, he said that the gouache was a gift from her. The doctor Zhao Ce hired identified the smell of these pollen from it, and then Another indiscriminate meal.

The next day, Ye Lingxi only took Hehe to the study and told Lingdang to pick some flower petals in the imperial garden, and then put the petals into the organdy dress given by Xiao Guifei and smoke it for a day.

When Ye Lingxi arrived in the study today, he saw a circle of people gathered around Zhao Ce's desk as soon as he entered the door. When Ye Lingxi walked in, Zhao Ce deliberately raised his voice.

"There is a man named Li Sheng among the water bandits. He uses a nine-ring sword and is very good at martial arts. I heard that he knocked that guy Yan Fei into the water with one blow."

"Really or not, I really hit it into the water with a knife. I won't sink or float."

Ye Ling squeezed in from the laughing people around him and glanced at Ye Xingye, who was also laughing. The latter immediately put away his smile and said that he didn't say anything.

"Have you finished drawing the turtle?"

Ye Lingxi stretched out his hand towards Chen Ping. Chen Ping quickly returned to his seat and took out a stack of papers from the book box and handed it to Ye Lingxi. Before he opened it, someone said that the Master was here, and everyone returned to their seats obediently.

During lunch, Ye Lingxi walked up to Chen Ping with the stack of paper full of turtles and asked, "Did you draw them all?"

Chen Ping lowered his head and nodded with some guilt. In fact, he hired someone to paint for him. One hundred turtles cost him ten taels of silver, and he didn't dare to let his family know.

Ye Lingxi probably expected this when he saw this. He turned around and left without saying a word. He didn't say whether he looked good or not, whether he was satisfied or not, which made Chen Ping confused. It doesn’t taste good anymore.

"Lingxi, believe me, I really didn't say a bad word about that kid." Ye Xingye said flatteringly.

Ye Lingxi turned around to talk to the eldest brother. Ye Xingye was so anxious that he scratched his head and ears, and looked at Su Shi for help, asking him to say a few nice words. This little move was noticed by Ye Lingxi, and she didn't notice it at all. He interrupted his thoughts mercilessly.

"Third brother, it's useless to look at Brother Su. Did you laugh just now?"

Ye Xingye averted his eyes in embarrassment and explained: "I'm not laughing at that boy Yan Fei, I'm laughing at that Li Sheng. He must be a big and thick man."

"How does third brother know? Have you seen him before?" Ye Lingxi said.

Ye Xingye suddenly became interested and talked endlessly about the power of the nine-ring sword.

The sword has nine rings, and the rings weigh ten kilograms. The nine rings plus the blade weigh about one hundred kilograms. The sound of the nine rings when they collide will alert the opponent. A real sword master can control the nine rings without making any sound, and achieve a human-knife combination. The realm of one.

Ye Lingxi heard what Ye Xingye said was interesting, and his attention shifted to the nine-ring knife.
