Reborn in the last years of Kangxi
Chapter 648
Chapter 648
Changchun Garden, the Empress Dowager's Palace.
Tomorrow, we will leave for Rehe to escape the summer heat. The Empress Dowager is in a very good mood, and many concubines in the harem are chatting and laughing with her.What is said inside and outside the words is nothing more than the scenery of Rehe Palace.
Concubine Yi is the most well-behaved, knowing that the Empress Dowager is a pious believer in Buddhism, all she talks about is how magnificent the temples on the other side of Rehe are, how profound the Buddhist teachings are and so on.
To put it bluntly, the Empress Dowager smiled, and she also had some expectations for tomorrow's trip.
Although it was not the first time to go back to Rehe, women in deep palaces like them, apart from traveling with their followers, there was no chance to see the scenery outside.
What's more, when we arrived in Rehe, there were also Mongolian kings who had an audience.Among them, there are many brothers, nephews and grandchildren of the old queen mother.
Concubine De was also in front of the Queen Mother, but she looked old, not as talkative as Concubine Yi.Holding a string of hand beads, smiling and listening to people talking.
The old man is getting old, and he is quite greedy. When he talks about Horqin's wild fruits and vegetables, his face is full of longing.
Concubine Yi heard this, and said with a smile: "After all, Lafayette has a lot of knowledge, we have never heard of it. The concubine's natal sister-in-law entered the palace yesterday and brought some wild vegetables from outside. The concubine is preparing to give Lafayette tastes something new. Even if it is not as good as Horqin's, Lafayette will appreciate the face and try two chopsticks, which is our filial piety."
The Queen Mother smiled and asked, "Is there any shepherd's purse? Last month's buns with shepherd's purse taste very bright."
"Yes, I know that Lafayette bought the incense and asked someone to pick the young leaves." Yi Fei smiled and nodded.
Just as they were talking lively, they heard a servant outside the door shouting loudly: "The emperor is here!"
After hearing the voice, all the concubines stood up and knelt down to greet her.
When Kangxi came in, he greeted the Empress Dowager first, and then waved his hands and ordered the concubines to stand up.
The queen mother watched Kangxi sit down and said with a smile: "Our mothers are talking about the mountain snacks outside. How is your appetite recently? Is the food delicious?" The last sentence was directed at Wei Zhu, Kangxi's close servant.
"Back to Lafayette, Master Long Live has had a good appetite for the past two days. He got up early and had two bowls of old yellow rice porridge and two steamed buns with sheep's eyes." Wei Zhu replied with a bow.
The Empress Dowager nodded and said to Kangxi: "The incense that comes in is good. Recently, the Ai family only feels that their teeth are loose, and they can't even bite hard noodles. They can only bite soft ones."
After hearing this, Kangxi showed a bit of concern, and said, "Emperor Niang, why don't you let the imperial physician come and take a look? Maybe just take two medicines, and you'll be fine."
The queen mother smiled and waved her hands, and said: "Emperor, Ai's family is 76 years old. There are old concubines outside who have lost all their teeth at this age. It's better to take a few sips of those concoctions, and let the Buddha bless you." , said: "By the way, have all the officials who will follow you this time? Lao Qi's son-in-law is repairing a garden in Rehe. How is it going? Speaking of which, the pastry in that village is quite delicious. This little Even though the two of you have limp temperaments, they are living a prosperous life."
Kangxi knew what the Empress Dowager was thinking, and said: "Cao Yong's errand is not bad. This time, among the servants who follow him, he ordered his father Cao Yin. When the father and son reunite, it will not make him busy."
The queen mother listened, nodded her head in approval, and said, "The emperor is still sympathetic to his subjects. Speaking of which, the little boy of the Cao family is the emperor's grandson-in-law, so he should take good care of him."
Speaking of this, the queen mother frowned, and said: "By the way, why did the Ai family hear that someone's Ge Ge is gone?"
"It's Yinti's Ergege, who was honored by Heshuo's son-in-law Li Shuao as the princess." Kangxi felt a little bit sad when he thought of the papers he read in the morning.
Although I don't remember Er Gege's appearance, but after all, it's my granddaughter, and I feel uncomfortable being a grandfather.
"Er Gege, sorry to see you, the Ai family remembers that they are about the same age as the fourteenth elder brother, not yet thirty." The Queen Mother shook her head and said: "The Ai family's great-grandmothers don't bear it, Concubine Hui is a grandmother How uncomfortable." At this point, he told Concubine De to say: "You go to see her later, just say what the Ai family said, and give her annoyance. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, as long as the Buddha summoned her. .”
Concubine De respectfully complied, Concubine Yi didn't change her expression, but she was also quite upset.Looking at the Empress Dowager's attitude, she seems to regard Concubine De as No. 1 in the harem, so where is she going to put her face?
So far, at the time of the Grand Ceremony, her position is also ahead of Concubine De.
However, thinking that Concubine De didn't follow the retinue this time, she stayed in the capital to take care of official business, and brought a few young nobles to follow her, she felt a lot more at ease.
Although Concubine Yi is over 50 years old, she still looks about [-] years old because of her well-maintained condition.In addition, she has a lively personality and can talk. Although Kangxi no longer calls her to sleep with him, he still calls her to talk with him every now and then.
When Kangxi saw Concubine Yi, he remembered something, and asked: "Have all the people who traveled with Yinyi have been arranged properly? He is still young, and it is his first time to go out, so he needs to be more careful."
Concubine Yi smiled and said: "Don't bother the emperor to worry about it. When the concubine got the news, he started to make arrangements. Although it was not born by the concubine, after all, I have raised it for several years. Speaking of it, it is better than Jiu'a When my brother first followed me, the courtiers and concubines were still dedicated."
Kangxi listened and nodded, the queen mother smiled and pointed at Concubine Yi and said: "Look at this thick-skinned person, before waiting for others to praise him, he shows his merits by himself. He has great-grandchildren, and he doesn't know how to be prudent."
Concubine Yi smiled flatteringly and said: "The concubine will live to 99 years, and I will also remember Lafayette's praise. By then, the concubine's hair will be gray, so I will wear a big red flower and give it to Lafayette in that colorful dress to entertain my relatives." ..."
After hearing the words, the Empress Dowager's face burst into joy.
Kangxi said a few more words with him, because there were still many papers to be approved, so he got up and went back to Qingxi Bookstore.
Before reaching the door of the bookstore, I saw the seventh elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother standing there anxiously.
Seeing Kangxi, the two brothers stepped forward quickly.The sixteenth elder brother was fine, but the seventh elder brother was sweating profusely, blushing, and panting heavily.
"Huang Ama..." Brother Seven's voice was choked with sobs.
Seeing the flustered appearance of the two, Kangxi couldn't help but sink, and shouted: "What's the matter, so panicked?"
Brother Seven's eyes were red and he was speechless.
Elder Sixteen took a step forward and said: "Ama, Heshuo's son-in-law Cao Yong sent his family back to Beijing day and night to deliver letters... Chu Yu was assassinated, and the situation is dangerous. Please ask Sixteenth Elder Brother to plead for orders on his behalf. The good imperial doctor went to save lives!"
After finishing speaking in one breath, Elder Sixteen couldn't help feeling a little moved, and said in a low voice, "Huang Ama..."
When Kangxi heard this, his face was already unpredictable.He looked at Elder Sixteen and said, "What's going on? He Shuo Gege, what happened to my granddaughter?"
"Being attacked by an assassin hurts my heart." Brother Sixteen gritted his teeth and took out Cao Yong's autograph letter from his sleeve, and handed it to Kangxi with both hands.
Kangxi opened it and read it, the handwriting inside was a bit scribbled, presumably it was written by Cao Yong when he was restless, but when he mentioned Chuyu's condition below, he was very careful.I think I want the Tai Hospital here to prescribe the right medicine and send people to the right situation, so as not to delay the time to save people.
Anger had already appeared on Kangxi's face, and he didn't know whether he was angry with Cao Yong for hurting his wife or the person behind the scenes.
He didn't respond immediately, but threw Cao Yong's letter into Brother Sixteen's arms, and went into the study with his hands behind his back.
"Huang Ama..." Seventh elder brother chased after him excitedly.Although the sixteenth elder brother knew it was inappropriate, but he was afraid that the seventh elder brother would be punished for his misconduct, so he followed in.
"Seventh Master... Sixteenth Master..." Wei Zhu was very embarrassed, and he should stop him, but seeing the red eyes of Seventh Brother, he also felt a little scared.Besides, it was Cao Yong's family matter again, Wei Zhu was also worried about it, so he slowed down and let them go in.
Kangxi didn't even look at the seventh elder brother, and said to the sixteenth elder brother: "Take the letter to the imperial hospital, find two imperial doctors, and immediately set off to Rehe Cao Yong to take orders."
"My son obeys the decree!" Elder Sixteen couldn't help but burst into joy, before Kangxi could say "kneel down", he was about to run out.
"Wait a minute!" Kangxi frowned and called out, "Where is the person Cao Yong sent back to deliver the letter? Hearing it, I have something to ask."
Brother Sixteen hesitated for a moment, and went out in response.
Seventh elder brother has stabilized his mind, bowed and said: "Huang Ama, I am really worried. Please agree with Huang Ama, let me take the imperial doctor to Rehe."
"It's just that you have a daughter yourself? Your daughter is injured, so you have to put down your errands and go to Beijing to visit her in advance; the elder brother's second daughter is gone, should he be released to pay filial piety?" Kangxi said, Already a bit annoyed, he scolded: "The majestic Duke of Duoluo is at a loss when things happen, what's the point?"
Seventh elder brother was so excited by the training that he had already knelt down on his knees.
"...Aren't you always so proud of your own business? You know how to cherish your own blood, which shows that you have no conscience... If you are willing to settle down, how can these accidents happen?" Kangxi didn't know himself What the hell are you angry about? Pointing at Seventh Brother, he said angrily.
Seventh elder brother bowed his head and knelt on the ground, he was confused when he heard it, but because he saw the emperor's father was extremely angry, he didn't dare to defend himself, so he could only say against his conscience: "My son is guilty, please calm down the emperor's anger. My son is guilty, please Huang Ama calm down..."
Seeing his submissive look, Kangxi wanted to reprimand him a few more words, but his eyes fell on Seventh Brother's leg pain, he sighed in his heart, and finally stopped talking.
The room fell silent, and after a short while, Wei Zhu came in to report: "Qi Zuo Long Live Master, He Shuo's son-in-law Cao Yong's family Wei Hei brought it."
"Biography!" Kangxi said with a straight face.
"Hey!" Wei Zhu responded, turning around and bringing in Wei Hei who was waiting outside.
Thinking about it, someone had taught Wei Hei the rules of Jianjia just now, so he didn't dare to raise his head. When he entered the room, he knelt down on his knees and said, "Wei Hei, the villain, has met the emperor."
Kangxi felt a little displeased when he saw that he was blind while looking at Cao Mang.However, since it was sent by Cao Yong, he was naturally his confidant, and seeing that his clothes were all wrinkled and dusty, he must have been on his way non-stop.
Therefore, Kangxi nodded and said: "What happened to Rehe and the details, you will report them one by one."
For the emperor, Wei Heiyuan still had a bit of fear, but when he thought about it, he was just an old man in a dragon robe, could he be better than demons and goblins?
Therefore, he held back his panic and told what happened at the Rehe Scholars' Mansion the afternoon before yesterday.
This was much more detailed than in the letter, and it sounded much more thrilling, but Kangxi's face became more and more ugly.
"What is going on outside the Great Wall that the woman said? Could it be that Cao Yong really committed murder and perverted the law?" Kangxi's voice was a bit sharp.
"Injustice, Your Majesty!" Wei Hei was anxious when he heard the words, he couldn't help raising his head, and said loudly.
Wei Zhu was afraid that he would annoy Kangxi because he was a rough man who didn't understand the rules, so he took a step forward and said sharply: "Presumptuous! Don't make noise in front of the imperial court. You can answer whatever the emperor asks!"
Kangxi stared at Wei Hei, even though Wei Hei had seen the world before, he couldn't help feeling chills down his back, as if his body had been gouged out by a knife.
He swallowed, lowered the volume, and replied: "Your Majesty, the Lord of the villain was ordered to go to the pasture outside the mouth to count the number of frozen animals in the first month of the year before last. The villain also went there, so I know the details. There was only a snowstorm along the way. , did not quarrel with others, and several adults who accompanied Taipu Temple can testify."
Kangxi looked at Wei Hei's face and saw that he didn't seem to be lying, so he believed it a little.After all, with Cao Yong's identity and temperament, he is not a person who takes people's lives at will.
He frowned and asked, "Since that's the case, why did the woman say that?"
"Returning to the emperor, although the villainous master did not encounter any quarrels in the spring of the previous year, according to Mr. Zhuang's knowledge, there were indeed people who wanted to kill the villainous master at that time. For this, Mr. Zhuang even sent people to support him outside the mouth. However, they did not clash with the thieves along the way. Maybe they saw that the incident was exposed, and the woman's husband was silenced." Wei Hei hesitated for a moment, and told the truth about what happened the year before last.
Just to prevent accidental complications, he didn't mention Cao Yin, and put all the blame on the passed away Mr. Zhuang.
Wei Hei knew Mr. Zhuang's identity.Therefore, he didn't know how much the emperor knew about what happened back then, and how much he didn't know.
"Cao Yong's letter mentioned offering a reward, what does this mean?" Kangxi asked with a sullen face.
"Returning to the emperor, before the woman committed suicide, Mrs. Yi asked her if she came here because of the reward order. Seeing what she meant, it was because of the reward. She knew that the master of the villain was the murderer of her husband and enemy, so she came to assassinate madly." For fear of making a slip of the tongue, Wei Hei was a little afraid to speak, and said these two sentences carefully.
Kangxi snorted angrily, his face was so dark that he was frightened.
Looking at the seventh elder brother who was still kneeling on the side, he waved his hands impatiently, and said: "Kneel down, and go to the third elder brother to pass on my oral order, and let him take care of your needs tomorrow."
Seventh elder brother heard the words, it took a while to reflect, kowtowed and said: "My son, thank you Huang Ama for your sympathy."
Kangxi turned around and ignored him.
Seventh elder brother retreated, Wei Hei knelt on the ground, thinking about the other side of the Tai Hospital.
He worked day and night, working fast, and it took him only one and a half days to get from Rehe to the capital.An imperial doctor with old arms and legs must not be able to bear such a hurry.
I forgot to mention to brother sixteen that we should not only choose those with excellent medical skills, but also those with better physique.
At this time, I heard Kangxi ask: "How is Cao Yong?"
Wei Hei hurriedly collected his thoughts, and said, "It looks quiet, but it makes people worry."
Cao Yong and Chu Yu are in harmony with each other, and they are also well-known in the capital.Kangxi remembered that Cao Yong refused to accept concubines when he sent Su Xin to Cao's house.
He didn't speak any more, and waved his hand to tell Wei Hei to step back...

Rehe, Chunwang Mansion Garden, West Courtyard.
Tianhui put her arms around Baoya's neck, leaned into her arms, and asked softly, "Auntie, where's mother?"
Bao Ya stroked her hair and said: "Your mother is not feeling well, your aunt has been taking care of you these days, so be good."
Tianhui nodded, pursed her lips, and asked again: "What about Dad?"
After hearing this, Baoya raised her head and looked into the inner room with a little anxiety.
The room smelled of alcohol, Chu Yu closed her eyes, her face was flushed, and she was lying on the kang.The clothes on her body have been untied, exposing her arms and thighs.
Cao Yong held a wet towel in his hand and gently wiped it for Chu Yu.
Cao Yong was afraid that Chu Yu would be disturbed by the sound, so only Xi Cai and Ye Momo were left in the room as helpers.
After all, Nanny Ye is getting old and has suffered such a big change, her eyes are red and swollen, and her body shakes involuntarily.
Since the attack the day before yesterday, Chu Yu has been in a coma, and started to have a high fever last night.Cao Yong asked someone to take spirits and kept wiping Chu Yu to cool down.
After wiping it, Cao Yong stretched out his hand to touch Chuyu's head, then touched his own, frowning.The effect is not obvious, and it still burns horribly.
Cao Yong recalled that today he had sent someone to fetch ice from the palace, turned his head and asked Xi Cai, "Where's the ice, did you get it back?"
Although according to the rules, the ice cellar should only be opened on the first day of May every year, but Cao Yong himself is an official of the House of Internal Affairs, and a princess of the imperial grandson is involved in this, so Qi Min did not dare to be troublesome.
Now, he was also in such a state of anxiety that he almost asked God to worship Buddha.
Brother Sixteen had given him the matter of arresting the murderer in Rehe, but there was such a big mistake.In a time of peace and prosperity, the honorable emperor and grandson princess was assassinated, life and death were at stake, how could this matter be suppressed.
How could he, the head of the palace, get away with getting involved in the imperial court?
He also came to visit eagerly, but Cao Yong devoted all his attention to taking care of his wife, how could he entertain guests?Of course I didn't see it.
At this time, let alone Cao Yong said he wanted ice, even if he wanted half of Qi Min's life, he would give it up.
"It's already taken back, Qiniang took it out and chiseled it, fearing that there might be some noise here." Xicai replied.
Cao Yong saw that Mama Ye's face was ugly and her body was a little unsteady, so he stepped forward to support her and said, "Mama Ye hasn't closed her eyes for two days, go and rest first."
Ye Momo's tears were already coming out, she grabbed Cao Yong's arm, and said in a low voice, "Forehead, forebo...don't drive this old slave away, old slave is afraid..."
Not only was she afraid, Cao Yong was also afraid, so since the accident, in the past two days and two nights, he dared not close his eyes for a moment.
After hearing what Ye Momo said, he didn't say any more, just helped Ye Momo to sit on the chair.
Cao Yong used to be quite disgusted with this old woman with a broken mouth, but now he is only grateful and grateful.
Baoya was at the door, looking at these, her nose was sore.She thought about it, and left with Tianhui in her arms. As she walked, she whispered to Tianhui, "Let's go to the kitchen, see your mother's medicine, and then look at your father's meal..."
After leaving the garden, she happened to be facing Fang Qiniang who was holding an ice basin. Baoya stopped, hesitated, and said, "I can't stand seeing Cao Yong anymore. It's so good to see you here." Advise."
When Fang Qiniang heard this, she couldn't help being curious, she raised her head and said, "Why didn't Gege try to persuade her? We've already talked it out, it's useless."
Baoya's face turned pale, and she didn't reply, she hugged Tianhui and went to the kitchen.
Fang Qiniang looked at her back with doubts on her face, but because she was thinking about Chu Yu, she didn't care to think about it, and quickly walked into the yard with the ice basin.
Baoya took Tianhui in her arms and walked quickly for a few steps, already crying.
Tears fell on Tianhui's face, Tianhui stretched out her little hand, fumbled to grab Baoya's collar, and said in a childish voice, "Auntie, don't cry."
After hearing this, Baoya couldn't bear it any longer, hugged Tianhui tightly, and cried, "It's all my aunt's fault, as long as my aunt doesn't miss watching the show. My aunt is sorry for your mother and father, and I'm sorry for my little sister, too. Tianhui, my aunt doesn't go to theater anymore."
Although Tianhui couldn't see, she still touched Baoya's face and wiped her tears with her small hands.
Where is it wiped clean?
Baoya has been depressed and guilty for two days, wishing to lie on the bed as her own.She has blamed herself thousands of times, she shouldn't have dragged Chu Yu to the theater, she shouldn't have been so careless, she didn't notice the difference of the assassin.
As long as she found out earlier, she would get up, and it would not be the consequence like this.
Hearing that Baoya was crying hard, Tianhui couldn't help sobbing along with her little mouth.
After hearing this, Baoya stopped crying, looked at Tianhui and said, "Is Tianhui also sad?"
Tianhui sobbed and nodded, and said, "Auntie cries only when she cries, daddy doesn't cry."
Bao Ya was confused, so she heard Tian Hui say: "Just now, Father, don't cry..."
Although she was still young, she also noticed that she had just been with her parents, and she said so when she heard her father talking to Nanny Ye.
Seeing her so well-behaved and sensible appearance, and thinking of Chu Yu, whose life and death are uncertain, Bao Ya felt more and more uncomfortable, tears welled up...
*
In the west courtyard, Fang Qiniang had packed several ice bags and handed them to Cao Yong.
Cao Yong took it, put one on Chuyu's forehead with a towel on it, and put the other two under Chuyu's armpits.
Fang Qiniang stepped forward, took out a ginseng tablet from Chuyu's mouth, and put a new one in.
Speaking of which, except for Fang Qiniang who bandaged her early, Chuyu's ability to survive until now is all due to this ginseng.
This ginseng was specially found by Chu Yu to nourish Cao Yong's body.Fortunately, Cao Yong was useless at the time, but it turned out to be a hanging thing.
Xiyan came in to report, and the doctor came to take the pulse.
Although there is no imperial physician here, there are several famous physicians, such as Dr. Lin invited by the Cao family.Because Chuyu was dangerous, he didn't dare to let the doctor leave for a long time, so he was left to live in the front yard.Every two hours, I come to take Chuyu's pulse.
Cao Yong put his wife's clothes away, nodded, and asked Xiyan to invite Dr. Lin in.
According to the rules, even if a nobleman like Chu Yu sees a doctor, even if he does not have a pulse, he must put down the curtain and cover the silk with his hands, so as not to show his flesh at all.
However, Chu Yu is at the point of life and death.Traditional Chinese medicine also pays attention to "look, smell, ask, and cut". How could Cao Yong consider those poor and fastidious things, and the rules are all avoided.
Even so, Dr. Lin didn't dare to be presumptuous, and sat down on a small stool beside the kang with his head down, feeling his pulse with a low eyebrow.After finishing his pulse, he raised his head, looked at Chu Yu's face carefully, and then got up to come out.
Cao Yong followed and asked, "How?"
Dr. Lin frowned, and said: "The Princess has hurt her lungs, and the cold and heat in her chest are congealed. Right now, I can only disperse it first. Ice compresses are also good for cooling down. I will give the Princess a few needles later in the morning to dredge the blood. If There is still a glimmer of life if the temperature can be lowered; otherwise... the forehead still needs to be prepared in its heart, right now it is just doing its best and obeying the destiny."
Before Dr. Lin came, Fang Qiniang had already said something similar.It's just that Cao Yong didn't give up and still hoped for a turnaround.
Hearing Dr. Lin's words, Cao Yong only felt that his eyes were dark, but he still held back and said: "The princess has been hanging by ginseng for the past two days, and other medicines have been poured in, and too much is vomited out. If it goes on like this , What’s wrong with your body? Can the doctor prescribe another prescription.”
Doctor Lin thought for a while, and said: "Raw pears can nourish the lungs and cool the heart, reduce fire and eliminate phlegm. It is also good to feed a few spoonfuls of pear juice every day."
Cao Yong kept it in mind, and after seeing off Dr. Lin, he immediately sent someone out to buy pears.
Back in the house, Mother Ye was imitating Cao Yong, wiping Chu Yu's arms with a towel soaked in wine.
Seeing Cao Yong come in, Fang Qiniang stared and said with a bit of resentment: "Believe him or not, I also picked up pears this morning."
"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't believe you, it's that I don't dare...don't let her make a mistake..." Cao Yong rubbed his forehead, and then the other party Qiniang said: "However, Qiniang is really good. If you hadn't been in front of me, the consequences would have been unimaginable. It's just that my wife is dying, and I'm distracted, so I haven't thanked you yet." As she spoke, she bowed down solemnly.
Fang Qiniang was a little embarrassed, she avoided it quickly, and said, "The ice is about to melt, I'll change the ice for the princess grandma first..."
While wiping Chu Yu, Ye Momo muttered in a low voice: "Gege has been asleep for two days, and it's time to open her eyes. Although little Gege didn't say anything, she heard from that girl Wu En that she survived till the end of the day." Didn't sleep in the middle of the night. She said she had to wait for Gege to undress her, and Xiao Gege ignored her when others undressed. Later, it was Baogege who came to coax her, so little Gege was willing to sleep..."
After talking about it, I couldn't help but burst into tears.Mother Ye was afraid that Chu Yu would be startled by crying, so she put down the towel, covered her mouth and walked out.
Xicai and Fang Qiniang were also teary-eyed, looking like they wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry.
Cao Yong's nose was sore, but he knew he had no time to cry.
He let out a long breath, and said to Xi Cai: "Go to the front yard to find Zhang Yi, and immediately go out of the mansion to look for the brewer. Use the shortest time to burn some stronger wine, no matter how much money you spend."
Xicai has also been serving in the room these two days, and already knows that spirits are like ice cubes, a good thing to cool down, and they are not as easy to hurt as ice cubes.
After listening to Cao Yong's order, she responded and immediately went out to find someone.After leaving the house, it was already a trot all the way.
Qiniang has repacked a few ice packs here and put them away carefully for Chu Yu.
She traveled with her father when she was young, and saw many patients.There are really few men in this world who can't wait to put their wives in their eyes like Cao Yong.
Even though she was not very old, she was quite touched. She glanced at Cao Yong, hesitated for a moment, handed him a piece of crushed ice, and said, "Even if you don't touch the rice water, you can eat two pieces of ice to refresh yourself. You can't count Grandma is not well, Master Cao fell ill."
Cao Yong took the ice, put it in his mouth, and smiled at Qiniang: "I'm really hungry, please ask Qiniang to help me get something to eat."
Qiniang was overjoyed when she heard the words, she nodded her head vigorously and went to the kitchen to spread the word.
There were only two husbands and wives left in the room. Cao Yong had already smiled, took his wife's hand, and lay down gently beside her.
He stroked Chuyu's hair and put his braids on hers.
How did Mammy braid her hair on the wedding night?
Meet Baishou, meet Baishou, until now, he didn't know that the woman in front of him had already unknowingly melted into his bones.She is him, he is her...
(End of this chapter)
Changchun Garden, the Empress Dowager's Palace.
Tomorrow, we will leave for Rehe to escape the summer heat. The Empress Dowager is in a very good mood, and many concubines in the harem are chatting and laughing with her.What is said inside and outside the words is nothing more than the scenery of Rehe Palace.
Concubine Yi is the most well-behaved, knowing that the Empress Dowager is a pious believer in Buddhism, all she talks about is how magnificent the temples on the other side of Rehe are, how profound the Buddhist teachings are and so on.
To put it bluntly, the Empress Dowager smiled, and she also had some expectations for tomorrow's trip.
Although it was not the first time to go back to Rehe, women in deep palaces like them, apart from traveling with their followers, there was no chance to see the scenery outside.
What's more, when we arrived in Rehe, there were also Mongolian kings who had an audience.Among them, there are many brothers, nephews and grandchildren of the old queen mother.
Concubine De was also in front of the Queen Mother, but she looked old, not as talkative as Concubine Yi.Holding a string of hand beads, smiling and listening to people talking.
The old man is getting old, and he is quite greedy. When he talks about Horqin's wild fruits and vegetables, his face is full of longing.
Concubine Yi heard this, and said with a smile: "After all, Lafayette has a lot of knowledge, we have never heard of it. The concubine's natal sister-in-law entered the palace yesterday and brought some wild vegetables from outside. The concubine is preparing to give Lafayette tastes something new. Even if it is not as good as Horqin's, Lafayette will appreciate the face and try two chopsticks, which is our filial piety."
The Queen Mother smiled and asked, "Is there any shepherd's purse? Last month's buns with shepherd's purse taste very bright."
"Yes, I know that Lafayette bought the incense and asked someone to pick the young leaves." Yi Fei smiled and nodded.
Just as they were talking lively, they heard a servant outside the door shouting loudly: "The emperor is here!"
After hearing the voice, all the concubines stood up and knelt down to greet her.
When Kangxi came in, he greeted the Empress Dowager first, and then waved his hands and ordered the concubines to stand up.
The queen mother watched Kangxi sit down and said with a smile: "Our mothers are talking about the mountain snacks outside. How is your appetite recently? Is the food delicious?" The last sentence was directed at Wei Zhu, Kangxi's close servant.
"Back to Lafayette, Master Long Live has had a good appetite for the past two days. He got up early and had two bowls of old yellow rice porridge and two steamed buns with sheep's eyes." Wei Zhu replied with a bow.
The Empress Dowager nodded and said to Kangxi: "The incense that comes in is good. Recently, the Ai family only feels that their teeth are loose, and they can't even bite hard noodles. They can only bite soft ones."
After hearing this, Kangxi showed a bit of concern, and said, "Emperor Niang, why don't you let the imperial physician come and take a look? Maybe just take two medicines, and you'll be fine."
The queen mother smiled and waved her hands, and said: "Emperor, Ai's family is 76 years old. There are old concubines outside who have lost all their teeth at this age. It's better to take a few sips of those concoctions, and let the Buddha bless you." , said: "By the way, have all the officials who will follow you this time? Lao Qi's son-in-law is repairing a garden in Rehe. How is it going? Speaking of which, the pastry in that village is quite delicious. This little Even though the two of you have limp temperaments, they are living a prosperous life."
Kangxi knew what the Empress Dowager was thinking, and said: "Cao Yong's errand is not bad. This time, among the servants who follow him, he ordered his father Cao Yin. When the father and son reunite, it will not make him busy."
The queen mother listened, nodded her head in approval, and said, "The emperor is still sympathetic to his subjects. Speaking of which, the little boy of the Cao family is the emperor's grandson-in-law, so he should take good care of him."
Speaking of this, the queen mother frowned, and said: "By the way, why did the Ai family hear that someone's Ge Ge is gone?"
"It's Yinti's Ergege, who was honored by Heshuo's son-in-law Li Shuao as the princess." Kangxi felt a little bit sad when he thought of the papers he read in the morning.
Although I don't remember Er Gege's appearance, but after all, it's my granddaughter, and I feel uncomfortable being a grandfather.
"Er Gege, sorry to see you, the Ai family remembers that they are about the same age as the fourteenth elder brother, not yet thirty." The Queen Mother shook her head and said: "The Ai family's great-grandmothers don't bear it, Concubine Hui is a grandmother How uncomfortable." At this point, he told Concubine De to say: "You go to see her later, just say what the Ai family said, and give her annoyance. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, as long as the Buddha summoned her. .”
Concubine De respectfully complied, Concubine Yi didn't change her expression, but she was also quite upset.Looking at the Empress Dowager's attitude, she seems to regard Concubine De as No. 1 in the harem, so where is she going to put her face?
So far, at the time of the Grand Ceremony, her position is also ahead of Concubine De.
However, thinking that Concubine De didn't follow the retinue this time, she stayed in the capital to take care of official business, and brought a few young nobles to follow her, she felt a lot more at ease.
Although Concubine Yi is over 50 years old, she still looks about [-] years old because of her well-maintained condition.In addition, she has a lively personality and can talk. Although Kangxi no longer calls her to sleep with him, he still calls her to talk with him every now and then.
When Kangxi saw Concubine Yi, he remembered something, and asked: "Have all the people who traveled with Yinyi have been arranged properly? He is still young, and it is his first time to go out, so he needs to be more careful."
Concubine Yi smiled and said: "Don't bother the emperor to worry about it. When the concubine got the news, he started to make arrangements. Although it was not born by the concubine, after all, I have raised it for several years. Speaking of it, it is better than Jiu'a When my brother first followed me, the courtiers and concubines were still dedicated."
Kangxi listened and nodded, the queen mother smiled and pointed at Concubine Yi and said: "Look at this thick-skinned person, before waiting for others to praise him, he shows his merits by himself. He has great-grandchildren, and he doesn't know how to be prudent."
Concubine Yi smiled flatteringly and said: "The concubine will live to 99 years, and I will also remember Lafayette's praise. By then, the concubine's hair will be gray, so I will wear a big red flower and give it to Lafayette in that colorful dress to entertain my relatives." ..."
After hearing the words, the Empress Dowager's face burst into joy.
Kangxi said a few more words with him, because there were still many papers to be approved, so he got up and went back to Qingxi Bookstore.
Before reaching the door of the bookstore, I saw the seventh elder brother and the sixteenth elder brother standing there anxiously.
Seeing Kangxi, the two brothers stepped forward quickly.The sixteenth elder brother was fine, but the seventh elder brother was sweating profusely, blushing, and panting heavily.
"Huang Ama..." Brother Seven's voice was choked with sobs.
Seeing the flustered appearance of the two, Kangxi couldn't help but sink, and shouted: "What's the matter, so panicked?"
Brother Seven's eyes were red and he was speechless.
Elder Sixteen took a step forward and said: "Ama, Heshuo's son-in-law Cao Yong sent his family back to Beijing day and night to deliver letters... Chu Yu was assassinated, and the situation is dangerous. Please ask Sixteenth Elder Brother to plead for orders on his behalf. The good imperial doctor went to save lives!"
After finishing speaking in one breath, Elder Sixteen couldn't help feeling a little moved, and said in a low voice, "Huang Ama..."
When Kangxi heard this, his face was already unpredictable.He looked at Elder Sixteen and said, "What's going on? He Shuo Gege, what happened to my granddaughter?"
"Being attacked by an assassin hurts my heart." Brother Sixteen gritted his teeth and took out Cao Yong's autograph letter from his sleeve, and handed it to Kangxi with both hands.
Kangxi opened it and read it, the handwriting inside was a bit scribbled, presumably it was written by Cao Yong when he was restless, but when he mentioned Chuyu's condition below, he was very careful.I think I want the Tai Hospital here to prescribe the right medicine and send people to the right situation, so as not to delay the time to save people.
Anger had already appeared on Kangxi's face, and he didn't know whether he was angry with Cao Yong for hurting his wife or the person behind the scenes.
He didn't respond immediately, but threw Cao Yong's letter into Brother Sixteen's arms, and went into the study with his hands behind his back.
"Huang Ama..." Seventh elder brother chased after him excitedly.Although the sixteenth elder brother knew it was inappropriate, but he was afraid that the seventh elder brother would be punished for his misconduct, so he followed in.
"Seventh Master... Sixteenth Master..." Wei Zhu was very embarrassed, and he should stop him, but seeing the red eyes of Seventh Brother, he also felt a little scared.Besides, it was Cao Yong's family matter again, Wei Zhu was also worried about it, so he slowed down and let them go in.
Kangxi didn't even look at the seventh elder brother, and said to the sixteenth elder brother: "Take the letter to the imperial hospital, find two imperial doctors, and immediately set off to Rehe Cao Yong to take orders."
"My son obeys the decree!" Elder Sixteen couldn't help but burst into joy, before Kangxi could say "kneel down", he was about to run out.
"Wait a minute!" Kangxi frowned and called out, "Where is the person Cao Yong sent back to deliver the letter? Hearing it, I have something to ask."
Brother Sixteen hesitated for a moment, and went out in response.
Seventh elder brother has stabilized his mind, bowed and said: "Huang Ama, I am really worried. Please agree with Huang Ama, let me take the imperial doctor to Rehe."
"It's just that you have a daughter yourself? Your daughter is injured, so you have to put down your errands and go to Beijing to visit her in advance; the elder brother's second daughter is gone, should he be released to pay filial piety?" Kangxi said, Already a bit annoyed, he scolded: "The majestic Duke of Duoluo is at a loss when things happen, what's the point?"
Seventh elder brother was so excited by the training that he had already knelt down on his knees.
"...Aren't you always so proud of your own business? You know how to cherish your own blood, which shows that you have no conscience... If you are willing to settle down, how can these accidents happen?" Kangxi didn't know himself What the hell are you angry about? Pointing at Seventh Brother, he said angrily.
Seventh elder brother bowed his head and knelt on the ground, he was confused when he heard it, but because he saw the emperor's father was extremely angry, he didn't dare to defend himself, so he could only say against his conscience: "My son is guilty, please calm down the emperor's anger. My son is guilty, please Huang Ama calm down..."
Seeing his submissive look, Kangxi wanted to reprimand him a few more words, but his eyes fell on Seventh Brother's leg pain, he sighed in his heart, and finally stopped talking.
The room fell silent, and after a short while, Wei Zhu came in to report: "Qi Zuo Long Live Master, He Shuo's son-in-law Cao Yong's family Wei Hei brought it."
"Biography!" Kangxi said with a straight face.
"Hey!" Wei Zhu responded, turning around and bringing in Wei Hei who was waiting outside.
Thinking about it, someone had taught Wei Hei the rules of Jianjia just now, so he didn't dare to raise his head. When he entered the room, he knelt down on his knees and said, "Wei Hei, the villain, has met the emperor."
Kangxi felt a little displeased when he saw that he was blind while looking at Cao Mang.However, since it was sent by Cao Yong, he was naturally his confidant, and seeing that his clothes were all wrinkled and dusty, he must have been on his way non-stop.
Therefore, Kangxi nodded and said: "What happened to Rehe and the details, you will report them one by one."
For the emperor, Wei Heiyuan still had a bit of fear, but when he thought about it, he was just an old man in a dragon robe, could he be better than demons and goblins?
Therefore, he held back his panic and told what happened at the Rehe Scholars' Mansion the afternoon before yesterday.
This was much more detailed than in the letter, and it sounded much more thrilling, but Kangxi's face became more and more ugly.
"What is going on outside the Great Wall that the woman said? Could it be that Cao Yong really committed murder and perverted the law?" Kangxi's voice was a bit sharp.
"Injustice, Your Majesty!" Wei Hei was anxious when he heard the words, he couldn't help raising his head, and said loudly.
Wei Zhu was afraid that he would annoy Kangxi because he was a rough man who didn't understand the rules, so he took a step forward and said sharply: "Presumptuous! Don't make noise in front of the imperial court. You can answer whatever the emperor asks!"
Kangxi stared at Wei Hei, even though Wei Hei had seen the world before, he couldn't help feeling chills down his back, as if his body had been gouged out by a knife.
He swallowed, lowered the volume, and replied: "Your Majesty, the Lord of the villain was ordered to go to the pasture outside the mouth to count the number of frozen animals in the first month of the year before last. The villain also went there, so I know the details. There was only a snowstorm along the way. , did not quarrel with others, and several adults who accompanied Taipu Temple can testify."
Kangxi looked at Wei Hei's face and saw that he didn't seem to be lying, so he believed it a little.After all, with Cao Yong's identity and temperament, he is not a person who takes people's lives at will.
He frowned and asked, "Since that's the case, why did the woman say that?"
"Returning to the emperor, although the villainous master did not encounter any quarrels in the spring of the previous year, according to Mr. Zhuang's knowledge, there were indeed people who wanted to kill the villainous master at that time. For this, Mr. Zhuang even sent people to support him outside the mouth. However, they did not clash with the thieves along the way. Maybe they saw that the incident was exposed, and the woman's husband was silenced." Wei Hei hesitated for a moment, and told the truth about what happened the year before last.
Just to prevent accidental complications, he didn't mention Cao Yin, and put all the blame on the passed away Mr. Zhuang.
Wei Hei knew Mr. Zhuang's identity.Therefore, he didn't know how much the emperor knew about what happened back then, and how much he didn't know.
"Cao Yong's letter mentioned offering a reward, what does this mean?" Kangxi asked with a sullen face.
"Returning to the emperor, before the woman committed suicide, Mrs. Yi asked her if she came here because of the reward order. Seeing what she meant, it was because of the reward. She knew that the master of the villain was the murderer of her husband and enemy, so she came to assassinate madly." For fear of making a slip of the tongue, Wei Hei was a little afraid to speak, and said these two sentences carefully.
Kangxi snorted angrily, his face was so dark that he was frightened.
Looking at the seventh elder brother who was still kneeling on the side, he waved his hands impatiently, and said: "Kneel down, and go to the third elder brother to pass on my oral order, and let him take care of your needs tomorrow."
Seventh elder brother heard the words, it took a while to reflect, kowtowed and said: "My son, thank you Huang Ama for your sympathy."
Kangxi turned around and ignored him.
Seventh elder brother retreated, Wei Hei knelt on the ground, thinking about the other side of the Tai Hospital.
He worked day and night, working fast, and it took him only one and a half days to get from Rehe to the capital.An imperial doctor with old arms and legs must not be able to bear such a hurry.
I forgot to mention to brother sixteen that we should not only choose those with excellent medical skills, but also those with better physique.
At this time, I heard Kangxi ask: "How is Cao Yong?"
Wei Hei hurriedly collected his thoughts, and said, "It looks quiet, but it makes people worry."
Cao Yong and Chu Yu are in harmony with each other, and they are also well-known in the capital.Kangxi remembered that Cao Yong refused to accept concubines when he sent Su Xin to Cao's house.
He didn't speak any more, and waved his hand to tell Wei Hei to step back...

Rehe, Chunwang Mansion Garden, West Courtyard.
Tianhui put her arms around Baoya's neck, leaned into her arms, and asked softly, "Auntie, where's mother?"
Bao Ya stroked her hair and said: "Your mother is not feeling well, your aunt has been taking care of you these days, so be good."
Tianhui nodded, pursed her lips, and asked again: "What about Dad?"
After hearing this, Baoya raised her head and looked into the inner room with a little anxiety.
The room smelled of alcohol, Chu Yu closed her eyes, her face was flushed, and she was lying on the kang.The clothes on her body have been untied, exposing her arms and thighs.
Cao Yong held a wet towel in his hand and gently wiped it for Chu Yu.
Cao Yong was afraid that Chu Yu would be disturbed by the sound, so only Xi Cai and Ye Momo were left in the room as helpers.
After all, Nanny Ye is getting old and has suffered such a big change, her eyes are red and swollen, and her body shakes involuntarily.
Since the attack the day before yesterday, Chu Yu has been in a coma, and started to have a high fever last night.Cao Yong asked someone to take spirits and kept wiping Chu Yu to cool down.
After wiping it, Cao Yong stretched out his hand to touch Chuyu's head, then touched his own, frowning.The effect is not obvious, and it still burns horribly.
Cao Yong recalled that today he had sent someone to fetch ice from the palace, turned his head and asked Xi Cai, "Where's the ice, did you get it back?"
Although according to the rules, the ice cellar should only be opened on the first day of May every year, but Cao Yong himself is an official of the House of Internal Affairs, and a princess of the imperial grandson is involved in this, so Qi Min did not dare to be troublesome.
Now, he was also in such a state of anxiety that he almost asked God to worship Buddha.
Brother Sixteen had given him the matter of arresting the murderer in Rehe, but there was such a big mistake.In a time of peace and prosperity, the honorable emperor and grandson princess was assassinated, life and death were at stake, how could this matter be suppressed.
How could he, the head of the palace, get away with getting involved in the imperial court?
He also came to visit eagerly, but Cao Yong devoted all his attention to taking care of his wife, how could he entertain guests?Of course I didn't see it.
At this time, let alone Cao Yong said he wanted ice, even if he wanted half of Qi Min's life, he would give it up.
"It's already taken back, Qiniang took it out and chiseled it, fearing that there might be some noise here." Xicai replied.
Cao Yong saw that Mama Ye's face was ugly and her body was a little unsteady, so he stepped forward to support her and said, "Mama Ye hasn't closed her eyes for two days, go and rest first."
Ye Momo's tears were already coming out, she grabbed Cao Yong's arm, and said in a low voice, "Forehead, forebo...don't drive this old slave away, old slave is afraid..."
Not only was she afraid, Cao Yong was also afraid, so since the accident, in the past two days and two nights, he dared not close his eyes for a moment.
After hearing what Ye Momo said, he didn't say any more, just helped Ye Momo to sit on the chair.
Cao Yong used to be quite disgusted with this old woman with a broken mouth, but now he is only grateful and grateful.
Baoya was at the door, looking at these, her nose was sore.She thought about it, and left with Tianhui in her arms. As she walked, she whispered to Tianhui, "Let's go to the kitchen, see your mother's medicine, and then look at your father's meal..."
After leaving the garden, she happened to be facing Fang Qiniang who was holding an ice basin. Baoya stopped, hesitated, and said, "I can't stand seeing Cao Yong anymore. It's so good to see you here." Advise."
When Fang Qiniang heard this, she couldn't help being curious, she raised her head and said, "Why didn't Gege try to persuade her? We've already talked it out, it's useless."
Baoya's face turned pale, and she didn't reply, she hugged Tianhui and went to the kitchen.
Fang Qiniang looked at her back with doubts on her face, but because she was thinking about Chu Yu, she didn't care to think about it, and quickly walked into the yard with the ice basin.
Baoya took Tianhui in her arms and walked quickly for a few steps, already crying.
Tears fell on Tianhui's face, Tianhui stretched out her little hand, fumbled to grab Baoya's collar, and said in a childish voice, "Auntie, don't cry."
After hearing this, Baoya couldn't bear it any longer, hugged Tianhui tightly, and cried, "It's all my aunt's fault, as long as my aunt doesn't miss watching the show. My aunt is sorry for your mother and father, and I'm sorry for my little sister, too. Tianhui, my aunt doesn't go to theater anymore."
Although Tianhui couldn't see, she still touched Baoya's face and wiped her tears with her small hands.
Where is it wiped clean?
Baoya has been depressed and guilty for two days, wishing to lie on the bed as her own.She has blamed herself thousands of times, she shouldn't have dragged Chu Yu to the theater, she shouldn't have been so careless, she didn't notice the difference of the assassin.
As long as she found out earlier, she would get up, and it would not be the consequence like this.
Hearing that Baoya was crying hard, Tianhui couldn't help sobbing along with her little mouth.
After hearing this, Baoya stopped crying, looked at Tianhui and said, "Is Tianhui also sad?"
Tianhui sobbed and nodded, and said, "Auntie cries only when she cries, daddy doesn't cry."
Bao Ya was confused, so she heard Tian Hui say: "Just now, Father, don't cry..."
Although she was still young, she also noticed that she had just been with her parents, and she said so when she heard her father talking to Nanny Ye.
Seeing her so well-behaved and sensible appearance, and thinking of Chu Yu, whose life and death are uncertain, Bao Ya felt more and more uncomfortable, tears welled up...
*
In the west courtyard, Fang Qiniang had packed several ice bags and handed them to Cao Yong.
Cao Yong took it, put one on Chuyu's forehead with a towel on it, and put the other two under Chuyu's armpits.
Fang Qiniang stepped forward, took out a ginseng tablet from Chuyu's mouth, and put a new one in.
Speaking of which, except for Fang Qiniang who bandaged her early, Chuyu's ability to survive until now is all due to this ginseng.
This ginseng was specially found by Chu Yu to nourish Cao Yong's body.Fortunately, Cao Yong was useless at the time, but it turned out to be a hanging thing.
Xiyan came in to report, and the doctor came to take the pulse.
Although there is no imperial physician here, there are several famous physicians, such as Dr. Lin invited by the Cao family.Because Chuyu was dangerous, he didn't dare to let the doctor leave for a long time, so he was left to live in the front yard.Every two hours, I come to take Chuyu's pulse.
Cao Yong put his wife's clothes away, nodded, and asked Xiyan to invite Dr. Lin in.
According to the rules, even if a nobleman like Chu Yu sees a doctor, even if he does not have a pulse, he must put down the curtain and cover the silk with his hands, so as not to show his flesh at all.
However, Chu Yu is at the point of life and death.Traditional Chinese medicine also pays attention to "look, smell, ask, and cut". How could Cao Yong consider those poor and fastidious things, and the rules are all avoided.
Even so, Dr. Lin didn't dare to be presumptuous, and sat down on a small stool beside the kang with his head down, feeling his pulse with a low eyebrow.After finishing his pulse, he raised his head, looked at Chu Yu's face carefully, and then got up to come out.
Cao Yong followed and asked, "How?"
Dr. Lin frowned, and said: "The Princess has hurt her lungs, and the cold and heat in her chest are congealed. Right now, I can only disperse it first. Ice compresses are also good for cooling down. I will give the Princess a few needles later in the morning to dredge the blood. If There is still a glimmer of life if the temperature can be lowered; otherwise... the forehead still needs to be prepared in its heart, right now it is just doing its best and obeying the destiny."
Before Dr. Lin came, Fang Qiniang had already said something similar.It's just that Cao Yong didn't give up and still hoped for a turnaround.
Hearing Dr. Lin's words, Cao Yong only felt that his eyes were dark, but he still held back and said: "The princess has been hanging by ginseng for the past two days, and other medicines have been poured in, and too much is vomited out. If it goes on like this , What’s wrong with your body? Can the doctor prescribe another prescription.”
Doctor Lin thought for a while, and said: "Raw pears can nourish the lungs and cool the heart, reduce fire and eliminate phlegm. It is also good to feed a few spoonfuls of pear juice every day."
Cao Yong kept it in mind, and after seeing off Dr. Lin, he immediately sent someone out to buy pears.
Back in the house, Mother Ye was imitating Cao Yong, wiping Chu Yu's arms with a towel soaked in wine.
Seeing Cao Yong come in, Fang Qiniang stared and said with a bit of resentment: "Believe him or not, I also picked up pears this morning."
"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't believe you, it's that I don't dare...don't let her make a mistake..." Cao Yong rubbed his forehead, and then the other party Qiniang said: "However, Qiniang is really good. If you hadn't been in front of me, the consequences would have been unimaginable. It's just that my wife is dying, and I'm distracted, so I haven't thanked you yet." As she spoke, she bowed down solemnly.
Fang Qiniang was a little embarrassed, she avoided it quickly, and said, "The ice is about to melt, I'll change the ice for the princess grandma first..."
While wiping Chu Yu, Ye Momo muttered in a low voice: "Gege has been asleep for two days, and it's time to open her eyes. Although little Gege didn't say anything, she heard from that girl Wu En that she survived till the end of the day." Didn't sleep in the middle of the night. She said she had to wait for Gege to undress her, and Xiao Gege ignored her when others undressed. Later, it was Baogege who came to coax her, so little Gege was willing to sleep..."
After talking about it, I couldn't help but burst into tears.Mother Ye was afraid that Chu Yu would be startled by crying, so she put down the towel, covered her mouth and walked out.
Xicai and Fang Qiniang were also teary-eyed, looking like they wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry.
Cao Yong's nose was sore, but he knew he had no time to cry.
He let out a long breath, and said to Xi Cai: "Go to the front yard to find Zhang Yi, and immediately go out of the mansion to look for the brewer. Use the shortest time to burn some stronger wine, no matter how much money you spend."
Xicai has also been serving in the room these two days, and already knows that spirits are like ice cubes, a good thing to cool down, and they are not as easy to hurt as ice cubes.
After listening to Cao Yong's order, she responded and immediately went out to find someone.After leaving the house, it was already a trot all the way.
Qiniang has repacked a few ice packs here and put them away carefully for Chu Yu.
She traveled with her father when she was young, and saw many patients.There are really few men in this world who can't wait to put their wives in their eyes like Cao Yong.
Even though she was not very old, she was quite touched. She glanced at Cao Yong, hesitated for a moment, handed him a piece of crushed ice, and said, "Even if you don't touch the rice water, you can eat two pieces of ice to refresh yourself. You can't count Grandma is not well, Master Cao fell ill."
Cao Yong took the ice, put it in his mouth, and smiled at Qiniang: "I'm really hungry, please ask Qiniang to help me get something to eat."
Qiniang was overjoyed when she heard the words, she nodded her head vigorously and went to the kitchen to spread the word.
There were only two husbands and wives left in the room. Cao Yong had already smiled, took his wife's hand, and lay down gently beside her.
He stroked Chuyu's hair and put his braids on hers.
How did Mammy braid her hair on the wedding night?
Meet Baishou, meet Baishou, until now, he didn't know that the woman in front of him had already unknowingly melted into his bones.She is him, he is her...
