Famous Doctor Woman

Chapter 44 Continue to Pit

Seeing Mo Yan's full promise, Li Yue'e was relieved a lot, her sad face just now changed from cloudy to sunny, and she now smiled.Recently, the capital is not peaceful. The news from the palace said that the empress seems to be in a bad mood, but she hopes that someone will go there quickly, so that the wedding of Lin Miaoyue and General Yuan Xiao will be postponed indefinitely, so as to buy her time.

"Yan Yan, haven't you been a guest at Yongping Hou Mansion recently?"

Zhao Guihua thought the same as Li Yuee, she still had the last hope in her heart, she pinched a piece of mung bean cake on the tray, put it in her mouth, took another sip of tea, and asked, "I heard that Xia Ruoxue often goes to the palace to accompany the Queen Mother recently. Her old man, does she have some inside story?"

No matter whether the queen is there or not, the draft can't be stopped. The harem is empty and there are not many concubines, which makes civil and military officials look shameful.Somebody has to give birth to an heir, and the emperor Wanqi Yufeng couldn't resist the pressure from all sides.

Xia Ruoxue is loved by the queen mother, if she enters the palace draft, her status as the daughter of the Marquis of Yongping will most likely be a high ranking score.There is the Empress Dowager in the front, and the Marquis of Yongping in the back. They are two backers. If there is any great fortune in the future, since General Yuan is engaged, Xia Ruoxue is not their enemy, and they should be friends.

"You also know that my relationship with my cousin has not been very good."

Mo Yan sighed, and immediately understood what teammate Pig meant. She rested her chin and stared at the herbal tea in the tea bowl with big eyes blankly, "My cousin should know about the news in the palace."

"Of course."

Li Yue'e rolled her eyes. She had a busy mind and a thick skin. She had dragged Zhao Guihua to try to plot against Xia Ruoxue, but in a blink of an eye, she had completely forgotten about it.

"Yanyan, Miss Xia invited us to drink tea at Wangxianju last time, because of the matter with me and the sweet-scented osmanthus maid... In short, I am very sorry, why don't you ask her to come out? Let's have a little gathering together, sisters."

The situation in Kyoto is not clear, some officials dare not to have a banquet blatantly, for fear of running into the emperor's bad luck, and these young ladies have no big goals, they are just going out to drink tea, they are very likely to meet by chance, and they are not holding a banquet at the residence.

sisters?The sarcasm in Mo Yan's eyes deepened.That's not what Li Yue'e and Zhao Guihua said last time. Now that they have no interest relationship, they have become sisters.In the end, he just wanted to inquire about news from his cousin Xia Ruoxue. If the two of them came to deliver posts in person, they might be rejected, so they thought of her as a springboard.

It is helpless to be used by others, and it is not so embarrassing if it is profitable.Mo Yan pondered for a moment, pretending to be hesitant, Li Yuee immediately took off the pair of hollow gold bracelets on her wrists, and said with a smile, "Sister, you see, I almost forgot, this is a new product released by Zhenbao Pavilion a few days ago. My wrist is too thin, it doesn't look good wearing it, I'll give it to you, don't dislike it."

"I also have a turquoise necklace here. Sister, your skin is better than snow, matching your complexion."

Seeing this, Zhao Guihua also took off the necklace around her neck.Compared with the value, the turquoise is more valuable. As expected of the Zhao family, they came from nouveau riche, so they are not short of money.

"Two sisters, you are too kind to me."

Mo Yan spoke with sincerity, and seemed to be so moved that she didn’t know what to say. In fact, she was still a little dissatisfied in her heart. Gold can be directly discounted, but it is hollowed out, just selling a craft, that turquoise necklace , must be delivered to the pawnshop.

When the two talked about this, Mo Yan had no choice but to nod in agreement, but she didn't say anything dead. She didn't know what was going on with Xia Ruoxue, so she just asked the two to go back home and wait for news. After she and her cousin made an appointment, they would send a maid Go to the house to inform the two.

After the people left, Mo Yan was truly relieved.The maid, Mo Xiang, went into the gazebo to exchange tea. Seeing so many jewelry on the table, she stared at her eyes, and it took her a long time to realize, "Miss, you tricked me into these again?"

"You girl, how do you talk? What do you mean your lady is cheating?"

Mo Yan carefully looked at the jewelry in the small box. Li Yue'e and Zhao Guihua really put their minds to it. These kinds of jewelry are all Lin Miaoyue's favorite styles, especially a necklace with ruby ​​inlaid with gold, and the gemstone below it is in the shape of a crescent moon.

"Obviously it was delivered to my door to cheat me."

Mo Yan caressed the jewelry one by one, and Mo Yan squinted her eyes. If she guessed correctly, there was something else inside. Because her sense of smell was too sensitive, she smelled a special smell just now.Of course, not every piece of jewelry has problems, the emerald ring is clean.

"How much money does this cost? It's all Miss's?"

Mo Xiang salivated. After she found out that the young lady had money, she would have the confidence to live a good life for a few days.Besides, the two of them treated the lady so well before, and they should give some compensation appropriately.Can more money be exchanged for a good reputation?Compared with fame, this thing is as light as a feather.

"I can do whatever I want."

Mo Yan sent Mo Xiang to get the dagger given by her second brother. She touched the mechanisms and hidden buckles on the jewelry with her hands, and after a while, she found a lot of medicine bags on the jewelry.Even if you want to exchange money for the pawn shop, you can't let these strange medicinal materials harm people.

After dinner, Mo Yan waited for his father to return from the yamen, and the family of three gathered together to continue discussing the matter of the long journey.

"Ma'am, the emperor got angry again in the early morning. There is no resolution to deal with the flood in the south. I heard that the refugees are almost arriving around the capital."

Mo Zhongchen sighed, his face was sad. He was also from a farming family, and the farmers depended on the sky for their food. Natural disasters are the most fatal, and the local parents and officials did not act. Grass roots, you can eat whatever you get. Fortunately, it is summer, and there are many species, so not many people starve to death.

"Oh? These officials in Kyoto didn't discuss the disaster relief?"

Lu's heart is kind, thinking of the displacement of the people, she frowned tightly. There are still most of the people waiting in place, holding hope, waiting for the rescue from the court, and she can't just drag it like this.

"It was discussed, and finally the king of Nanping was recommended to go to the disaster relief."

Mo Zhongchen's eyes flickered. He was the nominee. Except for King Nanping, everyone was unreliable. The court's disaster relief supplies should not be withheld again. There are also those hated corrupt officials. , should be thoroughly investigated and severely cracked down on.

There is another advantage for the King of Nanping to go to disaster relief. Although this person is not good at words, he is very skilled in martial arts. His wife and daughter are going back to their hometown. It is not safe to meet refugees on the way. If they leave with the convoy of King Nanping, it will be safe .
