Doctor Xianggong, the goddess of poisonous belly

Chapter 1: Autumn Rainy Night

The rain in late autumn is pattering, hitting the corrugated roof, making a pattering sound in the dark night like splashed ink, and in the quiet night, it is like the high and low weeping sound of a very woman.

The east and north of Nanbi City, Gyeonggi Province of Southern Shu Kingdom are the places where only high-ranking officials and nobles, imperial merchants and wealthy businessmen can live. Not to mention that at night, the two places where singing and singing almost every night are as silent as stagnant water, but during the day, there are very few people walking around, as if something terrible happened in Gyeonggi, and even the whole Gyeonggi fell into a strange state. in the atmosphere.

The autumn rain still never knows the taste of the world, splashing the already dim and faint fire light in a dilapidated small courtyard deep in the prime minister's mansion in the north of the city, and shaking the woman's figure reflected on the window paper.

At this moment, an old woman with a hunched back was braving the rain through the moon gate of the small courtyard, and hurriedly walked towards the dimly lit room. Her body was shielded from the cold rain to protect the things she was holding in her hands. The old woman's footsteps were hurried, but when she saw the light in the house, she immediately became flustered and ran towards the house as if frightened.

"Miss!" Before the house was warm enough to respond, the old woman hurriedly pushed open the half-covered door and ran to the paint-removing table next to the window with a soybean oil lamp. Trembling, "Miss, turn off the lights! It would be terrible if people in the palace saw it!"

"People in the palace also have to sleep. Who would come out at this time?" Dong Nuangu, who was wearing a light green cloth, was sitting beside the table by the window. Instead, he raised his hand to hold the hand of the old woman who was about to pick up the soybean oil lamp, and said with a slight smile, "Even if someone from the palace comes out, they may not come to Zuo Xiang's mansion, Liu Niang is just nervous."

Winter is warm so Erba Fanghua has a delicate and beautiful little face, her skin is like white fat jade dew, her eyebrows are thin and curved, her eyes are black and agile, her nose is straight, her lips are pink and moist, at this moment, the dim yellow light of fire shines on her dark pupils Her eyes danced like stars shattered on the night sky, even though she was wearing some washed white clothes, she couldn't hide the sparkling light on her body at all.

"Aren't there people in the palace who only appear at night?" The woman named Liu Niang became even more nervous, she still wanted to get the soybean oil lamp and blow it out, Dongnuan didn't stop her She just looked at the porcelain cup she was holding in the other hand and pretended to be surprised, "What is Liu Niang holding in her hand?"

When Dong Nuangu asked this question, Liu Niang really diverted her attention, and hurriedly put the porcelain cup in her hand on the table in front of Dong Nuangu, her movements were very careful, as if the porcelain cup was some kind of treasure and she was afraid that it might fall. The nervousness on his face was also replaced by a kind smile, "I secretly took this for the little lady from the big kitchen, eat it quickly, the little lady, it won't taste good if it gets cold, you can turn off the light after the little lady finishes eating .”

The lid of the porcelain cup was opened by Liu Niang, and a faint smell of red dates rushed to the tip of her nose. It was a bowl of red dates and millet porridge that was still warm.

Dongnuan saw that the clothes on Liuniang's back were almost soaked, and her gray hair was almost wet from the rain. However, there were only three or two drops of rainwater on the porcelain cup. It can be seen that Liuniang's journey back to this yard is not the same. She used her body to cover the porcelain cup from the rain, but it was just a bowl of red dates and millet porridge, just, just.

Unpredictable lights flashed in Dong Nuan's drooping eyes, but she didn't take the porcelain cup that Liu Niang had handed to her. She just stood up and was about to walk towards the closet, but was caught by Liu Niang. Puzzled, he stopped, "Little miss, eat while it's hot. I'll help you with what you want to do. Sit down quickly."

"Take a dry cloth towel to wipe Liu Niang's body, Liu Niang's body is soaked, and it is easy to catch wind and cold in this season." Dong Nuan said with a slight smile.

"Old slave... I'll take it myself. I'll take it myself. Miss, you can eat quickly." Liu Niang said, before Dongnuan could respond, she turned around and strode towards the closet. Her steps were a little anxious, She was afraid that Dongnuan would stop her.

Dong Nuan was holding the porcelain cup, but she had no intention of drinking, she just looked at Liu Niang's back, when she saw Liu Niang's footsteps that were obviously limping due to the rapid walking, her face suddenly sank, and she put the water in her hand. The red dates and millet porridge that didn't even move a mouthful was placed on the table.

Liu Niang just took a cloth towel and patted the rain on her body, then turned and went back to Dong Nuan Gu, seeing that Dong Nuan Gu hadn't eaten the millet porridge, she suddenly looked distressed and anxious: "Miss, why don't you eat the millet porridge?" Eating? Is there any discomfort? Is your throat hurting again? This, what can I do?"

"Liu Niang, I'm fine. I just have a bad appetite and can't eat any more. Don't panic." Dong Nuangu took Liu Niang's hand, and Liu Niang's palms were so rough that they almost cut off her hands, making her pupils twitch suddenly. Shrinking, but still said gently, "My throat is fine, it doesn't hurt."

"Miss, if you really feel uncomfortable, tell me, I will go to the master to find a doctor for you, you are always his daughter, the master will not ignore you, you can finally speak, but you can't keep silent In this way, the young lady can't rest in peace..." Liu Niang said, there was moisture in the eye sockets full of fine lines, but Dong Nuan pretended to sullen her face to show displeasure, Liu Niang saw her The displeasure immediately stopped talking about this topic, but she still felt sorry for Dongnuan's old saying, "Miss, let's eat some."

"I can't eat it, it hurts when I smell it, just let Liu Niang eat it for me." Dong Nuan so lightly rubbed Liu Niang's hand, clearly feeling Liu Niang's rough five fingers and palm scraping against his palm Feeling, there is a faint cold light flickering in and out of his eyes.

"Then save it for the little lady to eat tomorrow morning. It's cold now, and it won't be bad tomorrow morning, but it may be a bit hard to swallow when it's cold. I will secretly bring some other things to the little lady from the big kitchen tomorrow." Eat." Liu Niang refused to touch the bowl of red dates and millet porridge, so Dong Nuan knew that Liu Niang didn't want to eat it, she just didn't want to eat it.

Dong Nuan no longer insisted, nodded slightly to express agreement, Liu Niang smiled kindly, covered the lid of the porcelain cup, and made a gesture to blow on the soybean oil lamp, but Dong Nuan took her hand and said: "Liu Niang Don’t be in a hurry to blow it up, just sit with me for a while and say something before it’s too late to blow it up.”

"This..." Liu Niang was a little hesitant, nervousness flashed in her eyes, Dong Nuan pretended not to notice it, and insisted on pulling Liu Niang to sit down, but Liu Niang took a step back and shook her head, "I won't sit anymore , it's getting late, the young lady is weak and cannot stay up through the night, the young lady should rest, if you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow."

"Is Liu Niang tired?" Dong Nuan so let go of Liu Niang's hand and looked at her quietly.

Liu Niang hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, I too...I'm tired too, after the little miss rests, I'll go to bed too."
