The prosperous imperial concubine: the medical princess

Chapter 14 Secret Base
Su Ying took Jing Ge to explore together along the winding path, and the birds along the way twittered and twittered around them, causing Jing Ge to look sideways and stop from time to time in surprise.

"What? Have you never seen a bird?" Su Ying couldn't help asking curiously.

"I've seen... but I haven't seen the one outside the cage..." Jing Ge murmured unconsciously.

Su Ying kicked the stones on the side of the road with a wooden stick, and asked casually, "Could it be that all the birds in the palace are kept in cages?"

Jing Ge paused for a moment, then said meaningfully: "Everything in the palace is locked in a cage..."

However, Su Ying didn't quite understand the meaning of his words, she just continued to search ahead with a basket on her back: "Hey~ The environment here is great, I'll surprise you later!"

"Really?" Jing Ge took a deep breath, glanced at the birds all over the sky, and then returned to his usual smile: "Don't go so fast! Wait for me!"

"Hey! You are walking too slowly, okay?"

Amidst the laughter, the two finally came to the thatched hut on the mountainside. Su Ying quickly pried open the door latch, took out a worn linen coat from the room, and shook it in front of him: "Put this on quickly, lest you catch a cold."

"But...the size is too small!" Jing Ge gestured towards himself.

It was only then that Su Ying remembered that the clothes she wore were indeed not suitable for Jing Ge, so she simply found out another dress, and wrapped the sleeves of the two clothes around Jing Ge's neck and neck respectively. On the waist, he patted him on the shoulder instead: "Hey, let's make a living like this!"

Jing Ge glanced at the crude thatched hut in front of him, and asked curiously, "You built this hut?"

Su Ying patted her chest proudly: "It was built by my mother and I. It is usually used as a secret base. It was never seen by outsiders. Today is an exception for you."

"Really? That's such an honor." Jing Ge looked around with a smile, and casually flipped through a notepad on the table. don't know?"

In a panic, Su Ying quickly snatched the notepad back, and stuffed it into the drawer: "This... this is the word in my hometown, of course you can't understand it..."

Inside are Su Ying's notes in simplified Chinese characters, Jing Ge can understand it, and it's a ghost.

"The word for hometown?" Jing Ge's eyes widened curiously: "Where is Xin Aifei's hometown?"

"My hometown... is... a place far, far away..." Su Ying lied hesitantly.

Jing Ge narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at her carefully with his chin: "I've heard that Concubine Ai's mother is a folk medical girl, but I didn't expect that medical girl to be an outsider?"

Of course, Su Ying's mother didn't come from time travel, but Su Ying didn't mind his misunderstanding: "Of course, my mother's medical skills are very good, by the way, mine is also very good, do you believe it?"

"Really?"

"Go! I'll show you something!"

After that, Su Ying pulled Jing Ge around to the back of the thatched hut, and a flat field came into view instantly. Numerous arched sheds were suspended above the field, forming a spectacular scene.

"This... Concubine Xinai... why are you still building a tent for Cai?" Jing Ge was puzzled for a moment.

Su Ying turned around and said, "Hey~ This can be called the greenhouse planting method."

"Greenhouse cultivation method?"

"That's right." Su Ying squatted down and began to check the growth of the plants inside one by one: "Grow plants with a specific temperature and specific water, so that we can better control the laws of nature, which is common in our hometown. did that."

Jing Ge looked at all kinds of weird things in front of him curiously, while Su Ying introduced them one by one: "Tell you, there is something more special, this row is all grafted plants, this row They are all hybrid herbs, and it took me a long time to cultivate them."

"Grafting? Hybridization?"

"Grafting, er, is something like the 'connecting branches' mentioned in your ancient books. It is just that the roots, stems and leaves of two plants are all inserted together, and then they can both grow a kind of Plants, and other hybrids are more complicated, just like horses and donkeys can produce mules, but plants can also be hybridized."

"Plant and plant hybrid?"

"Uh, yes... Maybe you won't believe it, but in our place, uh, there is a fairy named Yuan, he is very powerful, he can hybridize a kind of rice with short growth period and high yield, and he can also grow Produce a kind of rice that is as big as the mouth of a bowl."

"The mouth of the bowl is so big?" Jing Ge opened his eyes wide, showing an expression of disbelief: "This... this is really something that can only be done by a fairy! Aifei, is your hometown in a fairyland?"

Su Ying blushed and touched her neck: "It's considered..."

Jing Ge covered his mouth in surprise for a moment: "So the new concubine Ai came from the fairyland? Then she is a fairy!"

Su Ying was a little overwhelmed by his exaggerated tone, so she simply said: "Hey, that's right! I came from the sky, so be careful~ If you make me angry, I will turn into a butterfly Gone, never come again!"

"Woo! Don't! Concubine Xinai, don't be angry, I won't mess around again next time!"

※※※※※※※

In fact, Su Ying herself didn't understand why she patiently said so much to this silly prince during the day?

Is it because I have been a little bit suffocated for so many years?Thinking about it, I have suppressed the secret in my heart for so many years. Even my mother has never confessed it. She is only immersed in developing the medicine that she thinks can save people, but no one can share it with her. In fact, she has always wanted to Need someone to talk to?

Now, by chance, she met this stupid prince who was able to let herself pour out her words without any scruples, and she unknowingly let go of her guard...

At night, Su Ying lay sideways on the bed, moved her body in thought, and tentatively rushed behind her and called softly: "Are you asleep?"

After a while, she didn't get an answer from the person behind her. Su Ying guessed that he must have fallen asleep. She must have been very tired after climbing mountains with her during the day to collect herbs. Su Ying couldn't help but take a long breath. With a sigh of relief, he raised his hand to the moonlight and looked at his palm, and suddenly recalled the situation when he was rescued by Jing Ge during the day.

By the way, Jing Ge held her hand tightly at that time, but she vaguely noticed something strange about his broad and powerful palm...

Why does a pampered and foolish prince have such thick calluses on his hands?

Could it be that it was made by playing the piano or some musical instrument?

Su Ying couldn't figure it out...
