Bianjing little doctor

Chapter 684 Forgive Your Sins
Zhao Zhen was taken aback.

This little lady is his niece and daughter-in-law, although she is separated by a generation, but he is the emperor, and this is his bedroom, if there are no palace servants to wait on her, it will make people gossip...

Zhao Zhen was silent for a moment, and then waved his hand when Xin Yi nodded.

"You all go down."

The maids in the palace didn't raise their heads, and retreated in a polite manner with a response.

There was no outsider in the hall, and Zhao Zhen was waiting to be questioned, but unexpectedly, the little lady suddenly knelt down in front of him with a plop.

"I beg the officials to forgive me!"

In Zhao Zhen's impression, this niece and daughter-in-law were probably the person who was the least afraid of him in the Song Dynasty. She would not kneel if she could, and she dared to call "you" and "I" when she was happy.

If it were another emperor, I'm afraid she would be punished just for these inappropriate actions, but Zhao Zhen knew that she was from the people and never cared about it.

"What did you do?"

Xin Yi had a serious face, "My wife hasn't committed a crime yet, but she's about to do so soon. Only when the officials give grace can my wife dare to speak."

Zhao Zhen: ...

The person who talked to him like this last time was Miss Zhang.

He raised his hand helplessly, "Get up and talk."

Xin Yi: "The officials are unwilling to forgive their crimes, and the ministers' wives dare not get up."

Zhao Zhen: ...

Doesn't this mean that if he disagrees, she won't say anything?But if she didn't tell, where did the crime come from?

It's obviously cheating!
The corner of Zhao Zhen's mouth curved slightly, making her laugh.

"Okay. No matter what you say, I will not punish you..."

Xin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was afraid that the emperor would go back on his word, he got up and saluted Zhao Zhen with his hands crossed.

"The minister's wife has treasures to present to the officials."

Zhao Zhen couldn't understand it anymore.

What is the crime of offering treasures?

He laughed and said: "You can use my palm to see, if you make up for it indiscriminately, you will be punished."

Without saying a word, Xin Yi silently took out a small pouch from his sleeve, raised his hands above his head, and presented it to Zhao Zhen.

"Officials, please take a look."

Zhao Zhen took it suspiciously, pulled the rope and touched it, and a red bodhi seed rolled into his palm, which was actually the same color as the auspicious auspiciousness presented by the Daxiangguo Temple.

Having been the emperor for more than 30 years, Zhao Zhen has seen all kinds of methods. Needless to say, he understood what Xin Yi wanted to express.

The so-called auspicious foreign objects must be unique and rare treasures.If it can be obtained anywhere, where is it still a foreign object?How come Xiangrui said it?
Thinking of him inviting his officials to feast, watch, and compose poems, it felt like someone had slapped his old face a few times.

However, the little lady asked desperately:
"What words do the officials want to engrave on it?"

Zhao Zhen's face immediately pulled down, and he threw his purse away.

"Miss Zhang, are you convicted?"

"The minister's wife is guilty, but the officials have just forgiven her."

"you……"

Xin Yi boldly looked at Zhao Zhen with sincerity.

She knew that offering this red bodhi not only hit the emperor in the face, but also destroyed the emperor's desire for auspiciousness, and even laughed at the emperor's stupidity.

If she didn't have enough understanding of Zhao Zhen's character, she wouldn't dare to offer it upright...

"The courtier's wife knows that the officials are benevolent and won't care about the courtier's wife. What's more, the purpose of the courtier's wife is to protect her."

"Escort?"

The irritability and anger in Zhao Zhen's heart eased slightly.

"Tell me carefully, where did this thing come from? What does escort mean?"

Xin Yi explained the origin of Bodhizi and Huo Shu and her and Fu Jiuqu's worries, and then said respectfully: "The minister's wife made such a bad plan because she was worried that the official family would be deceived by villains..."

Zhao Zhen picked up the bodhi seed, observed it for a moment, then looked up at him again.

"Your Bodhi is not as deep as the one offered by Daxiangguo Temple, and the color is also much worse. You can tell it is dyed at a glance..."

"That's because there wasn't enough time for coloring." Xin Yi said: "My ministers and my husband are worried about the safety of the officials, for fear that the string of bodhi is poisonous, and dare not wait until the coloring of the bodhi is completed before reporting..."

Zhao Zhen stared at her with deep and dark eyes.

After a while, throw the Bodhi seeds back into the purse.

"What a Huizhi, I will immediately decree to take away his position as abbot of Daxiangguo Temple..."

"Officials are not allowed." Seeing Zhao Zhen looking over in confusion, Xin Yi smiled and explained in a low voice:
"The auspicious incident is well known in the government and the public, and it's the New Year's Eve right now. Wouldn't it be good to see through it and let everyone have a good year?"

"Hmph!" Zhao Zhen's face darkened, "But I'm not happy."

No one is happy to be lied to.

Xin Yi understood the emperor's mood very well, and smiled slightly, "Wait until the county king finds out the matter, and then put him in front of the officials, so that you can calm down."

Zhao Zhen didn't say anything more.

In fact, he knew very well that Xin Yi's words were correct.Even if the auspiciousness offered by Daxiangguo Temple is fake, he cannot announce it to the world, just like the pile of "auspiciousness" accumulated over the years in his warehouse.He understood that it was because the ministers turned a blind eye to please him.

But Huizhi is different. He is a monk, and Zhao Zhen believed the auspiciousness offered in the temple very seriously, so he was even more angry.

"Forget it, I'll follow your advice. Go back and tell Ah Jiu to investigate this matter for me. After the Chinese New Year, I will hear his result."

Xin Yi felt a "thump" in his heart.

"Yes."

·
After the Chinese New Year, it will be Jiayou's eighth year.

The people of Bianjing ushered in the new year in the snow all over the sky.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, there was news from Xinyi Pharmacy that the great monk who was seriously injured and lying in bed finally woke up. Most of the food prepared in the shop during the New Year’s Day was meat, and the daughter of shopkeeper An went to the vegetable market specially , buy back the vegetarian dishes that many monks like...

Since Xin Yi left Beijing a few years ago, the medicine shop has never had an annual leave.

Lady An sympathized with the people who fell ill during the Chinese New Year and could not find a place to consult a doctor. She arranged for doctors, assistants, and drug boys to take turns off and gave them subsidies for work and food.

When Xin Yi got the news, she even wrote a letter to praise her well, and said that those who work during the New Year's festival will be paid three times their wages.

This year is no exception.

On New Year's Eve, every household prepares new year's goods, and when the whole family stays at home to celebrate New Year's Eve, the pharmacy is still open for business.

Xin Yi is the boss, and the guys are working so hard, so of course they can't turn a blind eye. She asked Xiang Ling to prepare some New Year's gifts, and also prepared a bunch of red envelopes, and took the carriage to the medicine shop.

The eldest princess sighed and blamed her son.

"Daughter-in-law here on Eleventh, everything is good, even if it's too hard, the one who celebrates New Year's day won't rest for a while, and you, a husband, don't say that you love her well, and let her work around outside alone... oh... ..."

Looking at his son who was about to go out wearing a cloak, Zhao Yuqing got stuck in his throat before he could finish speaking.

"I said, where are you going?"

Fu Jiuqu didn't turn his head back, "Catch the turtle."

Zhao Yuqing was stunned, and looked at Mrs. Qian, "When did Ah Jiu like eating turtles? Let the kitchen cook a pot of turtle soup, and wait for the young couple to drink it when they come back."

Mrs. Qian said with a smile: "Didn't the eldest princess understand? The county king loves the little lady, so he found a reason to come forward..."

Only now did Zhao Yuqing have a smile on his face.

"Stinky boy. He has a conscience. In our family, we can't do it without eleven... You call the chef, I'll take a look at the dishes, and when we come back later at eleven, we will have dinner, and prepare more what the mothers like to eat of……"

　There are double monthly tickets at the end of the month. Sisters who have tickets can put them in the pot and cook~
