Jiao Niang's Medical Sutra

Chapter 76 1 Glimpse

On February [-]th, after a few snowfalls, the sky in the capital cleared up, and spring was gradually coming in the midst of the cold weather.

As soon as Chen Shibaniang's carriage stopped at the second gate, two servants rushed over to greet her.

"Eighteen Niang, hurry up, Madam is going into the palace, and I want you to accompany her." They said.

Enter the palace?

Mrs. Chen was named Mrs. Guo after a few years. Although her rank and status were not low, she was not a relative of the emperor. Except for worshiping on big festivals and Sundays, she could not go to the palace at will.

"How did you enter the palace?" Chen Shibaniang was surprised, but the movement of getting out of the car accelerated.

The two servants had strange expressions on their faces, but they didn't dare to say more.

Mrs. Chen has already come over there, and she has changed her imperial uniform. Chen Shibaniang hastily greeted her.

The sister-in-law is pregnant and has a baby, and now the child is difficult to raise. Five out of ten can give birth smoothly, and two out of five will die. Therefore, the family is careful, and the daughters accompany them when they go out to meet guests.

Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter and nodded when she saw that she was still wearing the long-sleeved straight gown worn by Cheng Jiaoniang that she made during the New Year that day.

"There's no need to change clothes," she said.

Chen Shibaniang responded yes, followed her mother into the car and went out.

"What's the matter?" She asked after getting in the car.

Madam Chen smiled.

"Concubine Xian is pregnant." She whispered.

It is not uncommon for a concubine to be pregnant in the palace, but it is a happy event. After all, everyone knows that the emperor's heirs are difficult. Now that he has been ill for a while, it makes people in the court panic. What a joy.

"Then, do you want the women to congratulate you?" Chen Shibaniang asked puzzled.

This is completely impossible.It's not the queen who gave birth to a child.

The smile on Mrs. Chen's face was as weird as those of the two maids.

"Concubine Xian's diet was unwell, and she suddenly wanted to eat oriole. The imperial meal in the palace was cooked, but she didn't like it, so the Empress Dowager simply sent me to bring the cook to cook it herself." She said.

Chen Shibaniang's face also became a little weird, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

"Concubine Xian is really a deep favorite." She pursed her lips and smiled.

This kind of thing is naturally approved by the emperor, but as the emperor, he can't personally send his ministers to send the cook, otherwise he will have to be discussed by the censor.

"Why did you come back so early today?" Mrs. Chen asked what came to mind.

When Chen Shibaniang came back that day, she told her parents that she wanted to study with Mrs. Cheng.

Cheng Jiaoniang likes to listen to people read.Both Chen Shao and his wife knew about it, so they automatically thought that Chen Shibaniang had accompanied her in the past and read to Cheng Jiaoniang by the way.

The couple naturally agreed.

"She was like that since she was a child. She must have no brothers or sisters to get close to in Beijing. It's rare that she is willing to get close to you. You can go." Mrs. Chen urged.

Chen Shibaniang did not explain the misunderstanding of her parents.Responded vaguely.

"Ms. Cheng is going out today, and she left a message for me to go tomorrow." Chen Shibaniang said.

"Where can she go?" Mrs. Chen asked curiously.

Chen Shibaniang shook her head, Madam Chen stopped asking, and the car had already entered the palace.

In order to have a safe pregnancy, Concubine Xian was sent to live in the Empress Dowager's palace, and she heard the rumors.The queen mother got up from her seat, and the boy who knelt down got up first.

"Wei Lang. You go back first." The queen mother said, smiling at the boy.

The boy saluted.

"Also, don't mention the matter of leaving the palace." The queen mother said, "You are mourning for your father, and your father is also a member of our Fang family's royal family. How can you avoid taboos and live in the palace with peace of mind. Wait until next year, the eldest prince, you will come together out of the palace."

After that, he looked at the palace people around him.

"Anyone who dares to discuss the matter of Jin'an County King's leaving the palace will call him out." She raised her eyebrows and said.

The palace people responded one after another.The boy also saluted again and withdrew.

The Empress Dowager sighed easily with some joy, and supported the arm of the old palace man beside her.

"Let's just say that this child is a lucky star. He just came back, His Majesty is healed, and Concubine Xian is pregnant. Someone dares to ask him to leave the palace and go to fief the land." Don't you know? Let Concubine Hui's family make this palace more secure."

The palace people responded yes.

The Queen Mother described it as relaxed.

"Then the oriole from the Chen family is really delicious? I will try it too."

They talked and laughed and went out to the apse.

King Jin'an, who stepped out of the front door of the palace, stopped and looked at the side door with a slightly surprised expression. Just now, two maids led two women in.

The doomed woman's dress in front is very conspicuous, and the girl walking beside the doomed woman... is also very conspicuous.

Although it was just a back view, it was the second time he had seen that clothes when he was so big.

The first time I saw it was by the bonfire, surrounded by wolves howling, the night wind blowing the girl's cloak, and the plain black clothes were particularly conspicuous under the firelight.

"Jun Wang?" The palace man asked in a low voice.

King Jin'an withdrew his eyes and stepped forward.

"Who is it? Concubine Xian's family?" He asked with a smile.

"No, it's the family of Chen Shao and Chen Xianggong from the Ministry of Officials." The palace man also smiled.

Looking at the smile of this young county king, it was hearty and bright, and the coldness that was expected to be cold has disappeared a lot.

"Oh, the Chen family." Duke Jin'an nodded with a smile, then looked back, his long eyebrows raised inadvertently.

So destined?Actually met again.

It doesn't matter whether you dress casually while walking in the field, but it is really weird to see nobles in the palace wearing such plain colors.

King Jin'an smiled slightly.

A handful of bamboo tubes were thrown into the lit bonfire, and the sound of burning cracked one after another. The children covered their ears and jumped up and down, and the onlookers rushed forward, clapping their hands at the men standing in front of the door and laughing.

Naturally they couldn't hear them if they were too far away, and after all these people poured into the restaurant, they couldn't see any movements or expressions.

Only the banner on the flagpole was blown by the cold spring breeze in February, and the three big characters of Taipingju rolled with the wind, which could be seen clearly from a few feet away.

"Miss, don't we go over?" The maid turned to look at Cheng Jiaoniang who was standing beside her and asked, with some joy, "The lady's shop has opened."

"Here and there are different." Cheng Jiaoniang said.

The maid smiled and said nothing, looked down at the withered grass on the ground, and couldn't help but gasp.

"It's sprouted." She said, with a bit of joy, "Look, lady."

Cheng Jiaoniang looked down, the hood covered half of her face.

"Well," she said, "spring is here."

The hustle and bustle in front of the Taiping Residence dissipated, except for the neighbors who had heard the hustle and bustle at the beginning, no one else entered. There were many horses and horses on the road, but they either hurried on the road without looking sideways, or looked over and continued on their way.

"Banqin." Cheng Jiaoniang shouted suddenly.

The maid who was still looking at the surrounding grass hurriedly stood up and responded.

"Go and see, is your old man back?" Cheng Jiaoniang said.

The maid was shocked.

When she first came to this lady, she felt that this lady was weird and unpredictable. Later, through observing her words and demeanor over time, she found that although this lady was basically not attractive, but fortunately she could guess the words every time, and she thought she knew her thoughts. Probably, but after entering Beijing, her words to this lady became more and more in tune, but her thoughts became more and more incomprehensible.

For example, when the lady first said that she would die, who would have thought that it was for the current governance? For example, if the lady asked the lords to buy this restaurant, was it for herself, for the lords, or for the cook, or to fulfill that Han Langjun's kindness?

What she said at this time will be fulfilled in the future.

It has always been simple to talk less, but the maid felt that it was really wrong, the less words, the more difficult it was.

All along, the lady never mentioned anyone, and she always walked things on her own, but now she suddenly mentioned the old man, could it be that she has encountered something that she can't solve?

What's the matter?

The maid was a little nervous and a little panicked.

"Yes." She bowed her head and answered yes. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
