The story of a noble girl

Chapter 117 King Ning's Dog is Rhubarb

At night, Lin Xiaoning watched the sun go down a little bit, and her heart became more and more flustered. As the sun went down a little bit, her heart also sank a little bit.

Lin Xiaoning lost her mind again, she suddenly remembered that on the barren hill in Taocun, he asked her, has she been there since the time on Qingshan?
She hasn't been there, why doesn't she go?

Lin Xiaoning thought: Maybe I was waiting for something back then.

Lin Xiaoning called Meizi again: "Arrange a dinner and wait for Mr. Wang to come to the banquet."

Meizi didn't ask any further questions, but only replied, "Okay, miss."

Lin Xiaoning did not wait for Mr. Wang, but Silver Shadow.

Yin Ying didn't even take a sip of tea, she saw Lin Xiaoning and said: "Miss Lin, the matter of the princess has been settled. Today I have important matters to deal with, and I can't pass the mansion, so I asked me to come and talk to Miss Lin tomorrow. Thank you banquet."

"What's the matter?" Lin Xiaoning suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, just like when Mr. Hu returned to Beijing.

"Miss Lin, don't worry, Master will come tomorrow night. Master said, if it's inconvenient for you to entertain in the mansion alone, you can ask Miss Zeng to come with Master Wei."

"I ask you, what's the matter?"

"Miss Lin, kiss yourself tomorrow and ask me."

After Yin Ying left, Lin Xiaoning returned to the mansion as if she had lost her soul, and wandered around.

This house was refurbished from an old house. Although it was an old house, it was carefully built by the wealthy businessman. The refurbishment mainly consisted of pasting wood panels and tiles, building a new latrine, replacing tiles, and repainting the beams and columns.The garden was carefully looked after, new flowers and plants were planted, and the wooden door was replaced with a new one.Now among the sixteen maids, four are dedicated to gardening, and the others are divided into sweeping, laundry, and kitchen. Only Meizi is Lin Xiaoning's personal maid, but she also puts lotus in her yard. waiting.

Now, the door of the north courtyard has already been opened, and there are twenty children in the small house behind, twelve girls and eight boys.Two gentlemen were invited, one taught them how to read and the other taught them to identify medicinal materials.Miss Zeng was very interested in her only career, and traveled between Taifu's Mansion, Yixian Mansion, and this small house. With Wei Qingfan, she had a career.Miss Zeng has never been so beautiful and kind before.

The Taifu's mansion began to spend money on Miss Zeng a few days ago.Miss Zeng said, it seems that Mrs. Hu chatted with the Taifu, and the Taifu's house sent new stacks of banknotes to Miss Zeng. Miss Zeng has been poor for a while, and now she will know the benefits of money, sighing : Alas, silver is a thing that stinks, but it is really easy to use.

On the second day, Miss Zeng passed through the Immortal Doctor's Mansion, and hurriedly asked: "Xiao Ning, can you teach me how to make the potion for preserving the corpse today?"

Lin Xiaoning was restless, those dead people yesterday still made her feel uncomfortable, so she said perfunctorily: "Yanyan, let's try another day, I'm very uncomfortable today."

Miss Zeng immediately changed her face: "Xiao Ning, why have you declined so many times?"

Lin Xiaoning thought to herself, this is shooting herself in the foot, how could she keep the corpse.In modern times, formaldehyde solution is used to preserve corpses, that is, formalin.She has always used space water to cheat. When she replied to Zeng Yanyan's letter, she thought of space water, just give it to her, but seeing Miss Zeng's current state, she thought it could be learned like medical skills.

Lin Xiaoning was originally apologetic, but when Miss Zeng changed her face, her tone became a little impatient: "Yanyan, there is something I have to tell you, I don't know how to drink that water."

Miss Zeng looked at Lin Xiaoning quietly without saying a word.

Lin Xiaoning felt extremely sorry for Zeng Yanyan, a medical idiot, and said sorry: "Yanyan is serious, I'm not lying, I really don't know how, I just said that because I didn't want you to be infected by rotting corpses. The water from the corpse is the well water in the courtyard of my Taocun home. I brought some with me when I came to the capital. Yanyan, you should know that my well water is different from ordinary well water. It is very sweet. I tried it secretly before. Putting things in it won't rot, so I thought about soaking the corpse, and it worked."

Miss Zeng smiled, very happily: "I believe you, I just thought about how you are so amazing, you know everything, so you can't do anything. But last time, the old doctor who treated the woman taught me I have some ideas, saying that it is the method of preserving the corpses when the emperors and empresses were buried in the past, let's try it out."

"Yanyan, that's a mummy, it's not soaked like this, it's soft."

"What should I do?"

Corpse, corpse, corpse, when they came to the capital, they were pestered to face the corpse every day.Lin Xiaoning was very irritable: "Yanyan, I think the purpose of preserving the corpse is to let us understand the various organs and structures of the human body, which will be of great help to us in the future. What we need to do now is not how to preserve the corpse. It is to write down all of what we have learned and put it into a book, so that we can teach those children written medical skills, and then slowly teach them to do it themselves. These books are likely to be passed down in the future, Just like Hua Tuo's manuscript at the beginning."

Miss Zeng smiled proudly: "Xiao Ning, I have already done this, and I will remember it every day when I go home, and I will also draw it."

Lin Xiaoning blushed immediately, and hugged Miss Zeng: "Yanyan, you are really good."

Miss Zeng said calmly and proudly: "You said that Hua Tuo would be proud of me."
-
In the afternoon, the Taocun motorcade arrived in the capital, all of which were dowry gifts from the princess.Lin Xiaoning and Ms. Zeng took all the maidservants, carefully looked at the gift list and items, and after confirming that they were correct, they asked An Feng and Meizi to deliver the betrothal gift to the Princess's Mansion, and Mother Xu and the housekeeper of the Princess's Mansion spoke in silence. The dowry was withdrawn.

Miss Zeng went to the small house, stayed for an hour, and then returned to the Immortal Medical Mansion.Lin Xiaoning said: "Yan Yan, Master Wang came to the banquet tonight, so he should thank him well and help me out of this difficulty. Master Wang said that it is inconvenient for me to entertain alone, please come with Qing Fan."

Miss Zeng said: "What's the inconvenience, there are a bunch of maids and women in the mansion, and you are not alone, the capital only pays attention to these things, I really hate it, I don't like Mrs. Wang."

Lin Xiaoning was puzzled: "Yanyan, isn't Mr. Wang's elder brother very familiar with your father? Why don't you like Mr. Wang?"

Miss Zeng was silent for a while: "I just stay here, Qingfan doesn't have to call."

Mei Zi replied: "Yes, yes, I am also afraid of Mr. Wang."

Miss Zeng retorted indifferently: "Meizi, I'm not afraid."

Lin Xiaoning was suspicious: "Yanyan, do you understand?"

Miss Zeng was silent again, and after a while, she said: "Xiao Ning, some people are not easy to get along with, just like princesses. Those people, when they become unruly, they don't talk about anything, but when they talk about rules, they take everything seriously."

Lin Xiaoning was even more puzzled: "Yanyan, please speak clearly."

Miss Zeng frowned: "Master Wang is distinguished and holds an important position. Although I have nothing to do with him, most of this kind of person is moody."

Lin Xiaoning had a premonition: "Yanyan, who is Lord Wang?"

"Go back and ask him yourself."

"Yan Yan, with your temperament, you will also say that people are moody? I think Mr. Wang's temper is much better than yours. Yan Yan, please explain clearly to me, who is Mr. Wang?"

Miss Zeng pulled Lin Xiaoning aside and whispered softly: "Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning, how should I say hello, you have been in the capital for more than a month, ah, you have never heard of the sixth prince in the capital, who raised him A dog, very dear."

Lin Xiaoning was stunned.

Miss Zeng continued, "That dog's name is Da Huang."

---

Miss Zeng left, Lin Xiaoning let her go.

Lin Xiaoning sat in the room again and remained silent: Who can be more effective than Mr. Hu?Who can be so generous?Who can talk about the princess like this?Who is always following a dog behind him?He had obviously heard the rumors in the capital, but he never reacted.Also, Meizi has always been afraid of Mrs. Wang, and Meizi can obey such an astonishing young lady because she instinctively thinks that she is right.Then Meizi's fear is actually intuition.

When lighting the lamps, Lin Xiaoning heard the cry of rhubarb in the courtyard.

Mei Zi came forward and whispered cautiously: "Miss, Mr. Wang is here."

Lin Xiaoning stood up: "Please come into the mansion and hold a banquet."

During the banquet, Meizi lit eight candles, which were brightly lit.

Xiao Luzi waited on Rhubarb for dinner.First, I took a special bowl and filled it with rice, meat, gravy, and vegetables.Rhubarb ate comfortably. After finishing, Xiao Luzi used another special bowl to fill the broth without salt for the rhubarb to drink. After finishing, he used a clean soft handkerchief to clean the mouth of the rhubarb, and then took the rhubarb to leave. on the side.

Lin Xiaoning ate mouthfuls without saying a word, and after drinking three glasses of wine, he stopped drinking.

Lord Wang at that time, and King Ning at this moment are also eating quietly.

A table of exquisite dishes is extremely boring, and the plums and lotus are waiting nervously at the table.

The food was tasteless, King Ning put down his chopsticks: "Leave it."

He Hua and the other two servant girls removed the leftovers from the table and served tea fruit.Meizi stepped forward and carefully waited on the two of them to clean their mouths and hands.

Lin Xiaoning wiped his hands with a warm towel: "Master Wang is not eating well."

King Ning said: "Go down, I have something to say to Miss Lin."

Meizi, Hehua and Xiaoluzi led Rhubarb and retreated.

Lin Xiaoning repeated in a daze: "Master Wang, you didn't eat well."

King Ning looked at Lin Xiaoning and said nothing.

"Master Wang, who are you?"

"Who do you say I am?"

Lin Xiaoning lowered his head and sighed: "Master Wang's surname is not Wang, but the country's surname, Xiao. Mr. Wang is the sixth prince, King Ning, who has a dog. The dog's name is Dahuang. I am really stupid. I never thought it was You. In the cave, I heard that you called yourself the king, but then grandpa said that maybe I misheard, your surname is Wang, it seems that I did not mishear, but you deliberately concealed your identity. "

King Ning's voice was gentle: "It's not about fighting against you. I'm leaving the capital and I'm not going to the battlefield. If I don't hide it, I'm afraid it will cause panic among officials everywhere."

"Then when I arrived in the capital, I wanted to thank you face to face, but Mr. Hu refused to reveal your identity."

"You stupid girl, I said hello, let's see when you can guess it."

When Lin Xiaoning heard it, her heart felt sore, and her voice was also sour: "Am I the only one who didn't guess it?"

"I can't guess it in Taocun, but the old soldiers of your wound medicine workshop may be able to guess by looking at the rhubarb. After all, it is my soldiers who know what to say and what not to say. After arriving in the capital, within three to five days, both Wang Gang and Wei Qingfan knew about it.”

　There are a lot of things to do during the Chinese New Year, there were fewer yesterday, and today I will make up for it. Happy Chinese New Year everyone!
