Queen's Development

Chapter 21
In the dark of night, Meng Zhengping, a doctor from Xinglin Medical Center in Zhaoxian County, followed the servant quickly into the county yamen house, and the little medicine boy followed closely behind with the medicine box on his back.

Before the group of them reached the door of the main room, the thick cotton curtain hanging on the door of the main room was lifted from the inside, and a little maid poked her head out, and her voice was full of joy: "Come in!"

Everyone entered the Ming room.

There were two candlesticks lit in the bright room, and the room was brightly lit. A girl opened the curtain of the bedroom in the dark east and came out with a sweet voice: "Is the doctor here? Please come in!"

Meng Zhengping took a closer look, and found that the girl's hair on the forehead was at the same level as her eyebrows, and her hair was loosely pulled into a bun, and the rest of her dark hair was hanging down smoothly. Her small face was as white as jade, with thick eyebrows and long eyelashes, and big black eyes. Yes, the full and bright red lips were slightly pursed, and the lips were beautifully tight. I couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and hurriedly bowed: "My surname is Meng."

Yuzhi was anxious in her heart, and she sized up Dr. Meng with her eyes, and saw that he was looking gentle and handsome, and seemed to be very appropriate, so she knelt down and blessed her, and said: "Mr. Meng, our young master is inside, please!"

Meng Zhengping took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress his pounding heart, and entered the bedroom.

The bedroom is clean and tidy, not luxurious. There seems to be a faint fragrance of wintersweet in the air, which smells very nice.

Meng Zhengping restrained himself and followed this beautiful girl to Babu's bedside.

Yuzhi sat down by the bed, quickly helped Lin Jia up, took a white silk jacket and put it on Lin Jia, letting Lin Jia sit on her back, then looked up at Meng Zhengping full of hope: " Mr. Meng, our young master passed out after drinking a cup of spring wine last night, and he started to have a fever during the night!"

At this moment, Meng Zhengping was a little close to Yuzhi, so close that he could see Yuzhi's delicate and white skin in the candlelight, and smell the faint fragrance of wintersweet from Yuzhi's body - only then did he understand why there was a fragrance of wintersweet in the bedroom.

After calming down, Meng Zhengping looked at the patient and found that although the patient looked sick in the candlelight, he could still see that he was an extremely handsome young man.

He knew that if he could live in the main house of the county government house, even if this young man was not the newly appointed magistrate, he must be the son of the magistrate, so he was very attentive.

Lin Jia snuggled into Yuzhi's arms and felt the warmth, softness and fragrance of Yuzhi's body, but he was shivering from the cold, had a headache, earache, throat pain, and bone pain all over his body. His throat was so swollen that he couldn't even speak. Neng Yanyan looked at the young doctor.

After looking, hearing and asking, Meng Zhengping checked his pulse again, and asked Lin Jia to open his mouth to look at his throat, and then said: "Young master must have suffered from childhood and was poisoned many times. The emptiness of the fire hurts the throat, resulting in qi and blood stagnation. Go out and prescribe a prescription, grab a dose of medicine and drink it first, and if it is not right, call the next person to come over."

Lin Jia could hear the doctor's words clearly and felt uncomfortable, but she didn't want to say anything and closed her eyes.

Seeing this, Yuzhi was worried, and she gently waited for Lin Jia to lie down, helped him straighten the pillow, and covered him with the brocade quilt.

She was worried about Lin Jia's health, so she sent Dr. Meng out with Aqing and Alan.

In the Ming Dynasty, Meng Zhengping saw this beautiful girl's big eyes filled with moisture, and her thick long eyelashes were wet. He couldn't help feeling soft, and hurriedly said in a low voice: "Miss, don't worry, this young master is just overworked and physically gifted." It's too bad, so I dare not use those medicines for tigers and wolves, I can only take care of it slowly!"

After hearing this, Yuzhi felt relieved, and stared at Doctor Meng with a pair of wonderful eyes: "Sir, did you lie to me?"

Lin Jia had been poisoned too many times, so she couldn't help being careless, but seeing that Dr. Meng had clear eyes, and Ah Qing and Ah Lan had invited him here temporarily, there shouldn't be any problem.

Meng Zhengping hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Meng doesn't dare!"

Only then did Yuzhi feel relieved, watching Meng Zhengping sit down and prescribe the medicine, and then sent Meng Zhengping out together with Ah Qing and the others.

Ah Qing was the last one, and was about to leave the main room when someone pulled her away, and when she turned around, she saw Yuzhi.

Yuzhi whispered: "The consultation fee..."

Ah Qing hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Ah Lan is in charge of the money, he will pay for it himself. Send Mr. Meng away, and we will go to the pharmacy to get the medicine and deliver it."

Yuzhi felt relieved and watched Ah Qing and the others leave.

Lin Jia was lying on the Babu bed in the bedroom, her body was tormented by illness, but her mind was exceptionally clear. Thinking of her physical condition, she couldn't help but feel a sense of panic.

He has always been strong, never believed in any fate, only believed in himself, but now he is sick in bed, no matter how strong he is, Lin Jia's heart is full of misery and loneliness...

In less than a quarter of an hour, Ah Qing and Ah Lan came back with the medicine bags.

Yuzhi and Qingcha worked tirelessly to boil the medicine well, soaked it in cold water for a while, and sent it to the bedroom when the temperature was right.

The tea tray carried the medicine bowl, and Yu Zhi sat on the bedside and helped Lin Jia up.

Smelling the extremely unpleasant medicinal smell, Lin Jia raised her eyes to look at the pitch-black medicinal soup in the medicine bowl.

Yuzhi's mind was exquisite and transparent, seeing Lin Jia's appearance, she thought that he had been poisoned too many times, worried that the medicine was poisonous, so she took the medicine bowl and tried to drink it first.

A bitter and astringent taste filled the mouth, Yuzhi said with a bitter face: "It's so bitter!"

Lin Jia just disliked the bad smell of the medicine. She didn't expect Yuzhi to test the medicine. She was anxious and said in a hoarse voice, "Feed me!"

Only then did Yu Zhi finish a bowl of medicine for Lin Jia, and then took out an oiled paper bag from her purse, and took out a piece of honey apricot with pitted from the oiled paper bag and fed it to Lin Jia.

Lin Jia has always loved sweets, but she never asks for it. Now that she has this sweet and slightly sour preserved apricot, she feels better.

Yuzhi observed Lin Jia quietly, and seeing that he seemed to be feeling better, she took a veil and touched the corners of Lin Jia's lips, and then helped Lin Jia to lie down.

Seeing that Lin Jia had closed her eyes, Yuzhi bent down and extinguished the candlestick by the bed, got up and put down the brocade curtain.

She walked to the bed by the window with Qingcha, and whispered to Qingcha: "Go and sleep for a while, I will watch over here!"

Qingcha was already so sleepy that he could barely open his eyes, seeing Yuzhi's tired face, he said, "I'll go to sleep for a while, and I'll get up to cook porridge at dawn!"

Yuzhi nodded, brought some tea out, and went to Ba Bu's bed by herself, stood by the bed and listened for a while, feeling that Lin Jia's breathing was much more stable, then went to the bed and fell asleep.

After lying down, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, but her mind was clear.

There are many factions in Xingping County Prince's Mansion, Yuzhi originally thought that since she had voted for the second son Lin Jia's side, she would serve the second son well and gain the second son's trust.When she gets older, she must either ask the young master to arrange a good husband-in-law and have several good children, or ask the second young master to agree to her redemption and leave the house, so that she can live under the second young master's protection in the future.

But now seeing Lin Jia who is ill, so weak and pitiful, her motherly instincts are immediately aroused, so she does her best to serve Lin Jia, even if she is tired, she refuses to give up.

There was a faint crowing of chickens outside.

Yuzhi fell asleep unknowingly.

After daybreak, Qingcha felt sorry for Yuzhi's hard work, so she quietly got up and cooked a pot of sticky millet porridge, made some steamed buns, and mixed two dishes of side dishes.

Ah Qing and Ah Cheng, Ye Chunshan and the palace guards lived in the west courtyard, and they all ate in the big kitchen, so Qingcha and Yuzhi didn't have to prepare their meals.

In Yuzhi's dream, she suddenly heard Lin Jia calling her, and immediately sat up.

After being stunned for a moment, she raised her eyes to look at the window, and found that the window paper was white, it was already broad daylight, and there was still no movement in Babu's bed.

Yuzhi always likes to be clean and groomed, so she went to see Lin Jia after washing up.

Seeing that Lin Jia was sleeping soundly, Yu Zhi felt relieved and went out of the main room to find some tea.

In the morning Lin Jia drank the decoction and half a bowl of millet porridge served by Yu Zhi.

After waiting for Lin Jia to rinse her mouth, Yuzhi asked softly, "Young Master, is there anything you want for lunch?"

Lin Jia thought about it seriously like a child, and looked at Yuzhi obediently, her long eyes were clear, and her voice was soft: "I want to eat the noodles you made."

Lin Jia like this made Yuzhi's heart soften into a puddle of sugar water. She looked at Lin Jia tenderly, and said softly, "I'll go buy some meat and vegetables, and make pork shredded noodles in hot pot at noon, how about it?"

Lin Jia gave an obedient "hmm".

He lost his mother when he was six years old, and was forced to grow up to face the storms of life alone.

But in his body that has grown into a handsome young man, the coquettish and coquettish little boy who was only six years old has always been there, but Lin Jia has been deliberately suppressing him.

Now facing Yuzhi, who was younger than him, the little boy who was deliberately suppressed by the grown-up Lin Jia poked his head out and wanted to act like a baby.

Seeing Lin Jia being so cute and cute, with a white and tender face, Yuzhi thought to herself: His face is so white and tender, it must be very soft...

She accidentally pinched Lin Jia's cheek with her hand, and said with a smile, "Oh, it's so soft!"

After all, before Lin Jia could react, she quickly turned around and ran out.

Lin Jia: "..."
