The Favoured Medical Princess: 517 Hate Marry
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!
The Lu family has been in charge of the Zhou Mansion for many years. Whether Zhou Roujia was invited to Zhennan Prince's Mansion a few days ago, or Nangong Yue came to visit today, she knew everything clearly, and she also secretly suspected in her heart whether the Prince's Mansion planned to let The second son married Zhou Roujia as compensation. When she thought of this, she felt a little angry. Zhou Jiarou was too shameless. She didn't know how to behave even though her reputation was in the way, so she insisted on hooking up with Young Master Xiao.
Knowing that Nangong Yue was coming, Mrs. Lu always asked her servants to pay attention. Just now, a maid hurriedly came to report the content of their conversation. Mrs. Lu suddenly became anxious and hurriedly brought her daughter over.
The eldest son has only an only daughter and no son to support the family. She is powerless and has no power. How can she be worthy of being in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion? If the wife chosen for the Second Young Master Xiao is not from a good family, I am afraid that even the Prince of Zhennan will be chosen. He won't be happy either.
In comparison, their second wife is the most suitable. Although the family is not prominent, it is not too bad and will not threaten the status of the imperial concubine in the future. Zhou Roujia's loss of reputation was partly due to Sister Hui's careless behavior, so making her a concubine was compensation. Such a strategy to get the best of both worlds must be obvious to the Crown Princess.
"Second younger brother and sister!" Wang stood up suddenly, her chest heaving violently, her lips moved slightly, but she couldn't say a word.
Concubine Teng! Fortunately, Mrs. Lu can speak out! Her innocent daughter was ruined by Zhou Rouhui, but according to Lu, it was her daughter who acted inappropriately! Wang had never hated herself so much for being dull and inarticulate at this moment. She couldn't even accuse Lu of being shameless.
Shi Lu smiled and said: "Prince Princess, please forgive me, my sister-in-law has such a temper..."
Nangong Yue put down the tea cup in her hand and said with a half-smile, "Does the second lady think that you can make the decision on the marriage of the second young master of Zhennan Palace?"
Mrs. Lu's face froze, and she quickly smiled and said: "Prince Princess, what are you talking about? Hey, my sister Jia is really not worthy of the second young master, so how dare she try to reach such a high level..." She thought He said pointedly, "I'm afraid the prince will also think it's inappropriate."
Nangong Yue somewhat understands Lu's thoughts. I am afraid that in Lu's view, she will choose Zhou Roujia for Xiao Luan. Although she intends to make up for it, she is more deliberately trying to choose someone with a poor family background for Xiao Luan. The wife family has a reputation that seems to be in jeopardy. Therefore, Mrs. Lu thought that what she proposed was the best of both worlds, and even deliberately reminded herself that if the person chosen for Xiao Luan was too unbearable, King Zhennan would also be dissatisfied.
This Lu family is too smart.
Nangong Yue said calmly: "Mrs. Tuesday, do you really think that no one knows about the unspeakable things that Miss Tuesday did in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion? You dare to use such despicable behavior in my Zhennan Prince's Mansion? She framed her own cousin with such a trick, and showed no remorse afterward. Forgive me, the Prince of Zhennan, for such a shameless and low-moral girl, I can’t bear it. Mrs. Tuesday should find another family."
After saying these few words, Lu's heart suddenly sank. After King Zhennan's birthday party, she forced Zhou Roujin to reveal everything. Unexpectedly, the Crown Princess also knew about it. If these things get out, the reputations of Sister Hui and Sister Jin, who are scheming against the eldest sister, will be ruined!
Can't admit it!
These three words popped up in Madam Lu's mind, and she forced herself to explain: "Prince Princess, you have misunderstood. Sister Jia has already admitted that what happened that day was caused by her own misconduct..."
"That's enough!" Mrs. Wang said with a look of sorrow and indignation, "Second brothers and sisters, people are doing it, God is watching, are you guilty of saying such things?!"
"Sister-in-law, you can't just talk nonsense for Sister Jia's sake." Mrs. Lu looked at Nangong Yue flatteringly and said, "Prince Princess, you have always been sensible, this matter..."
"I am indeed sensible, and I know what is right and what is wrong." Nangong Yue didn't want to listen to Lu's excuse, so she interrupted the other party rudely, with a light tone.
Que'er behind Nangong Yue almost laughed out loud. The Crown Princess's words are really as elegant as the Crown Prince's. The words "influenced by both ears and eyes" are indeed true. The Crown Princess must have already achieved all the qualities of the Crown Prince. True biography!
Nangong Yue looked at Mrs. Lu coldly, and continued: "Mrs. Tuesday, I would like to remind you that instead of running around, it is better to discipline your children. Otherwise, even if Miss Tuesday hates marrying again, I am afraid she will still be married. She cannot be a good family. This is what I have said." Nangong Yue was too lazy to say more to Mrs. Lu. She stood up, dusted her sleeves, and said to Mrs. Wang: "Mrs. Zhou, there is something else going on in this concubine's house. , I’ll take my leave today.”
After Nangong Yue finished speaking, she took Huamei and Queer and left without looking back.
Zhou Rouhui couldn't help but reveal a trace of resentment in her eyes. Why? ! In order to protect Zhou Roujia, the Crown Princess actually slandered her like this! ...If even a single word of these words were revealed today, she would be doomed!
Wang's face was ashen. What the Crown Princess said at the beginning was that she had clearly decided to hire her Jia Jie as his wife for the Second Young Master Xiao. However, if Madam Lu makes a fuss now, what should her Jia Jie do? Her sister Jia...
Wang's vision went dark, and she staggered and fell to the ground.
"Madam! Madam!"
There was suddenly a commotion in Zhou Mansion.
However, no matter how much trouble there is in the Zhou Mansion, Nangong Yue will never know about it.
The Zhu Lun Chai galloped smoothly towards the palace.
In the carriage, Nangong Yue thought for a moment and then said: "Baihui, after you get the medicine and come back, go to the front yard first and tell Butler Zhu for me that Zhou's eldest son will be exempted from the errand." That’s it.”
After the birthday banquet that day, King Zhennan also heard that the eldest daughter Zhou had lost her reputation because of Xiao Luan. Probably to compensate the Zhou family, he gave the eldest son of Zhou a military position of the sixth rank. Nangong Yue felt it was inappropriate when she first heard about it, but after all, it was just a casual visit. Furthermore, if the marriage between Xiao Luan and Miss Zhou could be successful, the consent of King Zhennan must be obtained, so she did not do it for this. Plant small things to make the King of Zhennan unhappy, so as to avoid troubles.
But now it seems that the second wife relied on sisters Zhou Rouhui to "frame" Zhou Roujia. Not only did the eldest son get a future, but he also wanted his daughter to get a good marriage through Zhou Roujia. There is no such thing as cheap in this world!
If such a shameless person is not punished, but is allowed to reap all the benefits, where is the justice? !
Baihui agreed.
The Zhu Lun Car stopped at the street corner, put Baihui down, and then went straight back to Bixiaotang.
As soon as he entered his yard, Ying'er came over to report that Xiao Fei was in Dongci's room.
Nangong Yue nodded and went to Dongci Room.
Xiao Fei quickly put down the book in her hand and came up to her. She saluted and looked at Nangong Yue longingly.
"I'm afraid there's something wrong with the Zhou family." Nangong Yue understood what she wanted to ask, so he didn't hide it from her and told her roughly what had just happened.
Xiao Fei couldn't help but be stunned, and then heard Nangong Yue continue to say, "Although I knew that Zhou's family was weak, I didn't know that it would be so weak. I'm afraid this marriage will not happen."
"Sister-in-law." Xiao Fei couldn't help but say, "But Miss Zhou..." What should she do?
"Sister Fei." Nangong Yue explained to her patiently, "The discussion of marriage is not just a matter between the second uncle and Miss Zhou, but between our Zhennan Palace and the Zhou family. This Before the marriage was consummated, the Zhou family thought they could make the decision for the palace and marry whomever they wanted. Even concubines were arranged. Once the marriage was consummated, they didn't know what ridiculous things they would do. . Uncle Er is not a hard-hearted person. I am afraid that he will be influenced by the Zhou family in the future, which is not good."
Xiao Luan'er is soft-hearted and easy to coax, and he is not a smart person. Moreover, he is the second son. Sooner or later, he will be separated from the palace. At that time, he may be led by the Zhou family. , and the character of the Zhou family is really worrying.
With such an in-law, there will probably be endless troubles in the future.
Xiao Fei also figured out the key, and her expression was somewhat gloomy.
Nangong Yue also did not expect that the marriage would reach this point, but there would be new twists and turns.
If this marriage is put on hold, Miss Zhou will be the most innocent person.
The key to the problem is that Wang's performance today is too cowardly. Facing Lu's repeated provocations and slanders, she didn't even have a word to refute. If she could be a little tougher, she wouldn't There are so many concerns.
Nangong Yue said with a headache: "Let's take a look at this matter first and then talk about it."
While talking, there was a sound of curtain lifting, Huamei came in with Tao Yao, Tao Yao looked a little nervous, walked up to Xiao Fei and said: "Miss, I don't know where Xiao Ju has gone. Today I haven’t seen him since the morning.” It’s natural for cats to like to run around, but Xiaoju is a glutton and usually runs back to Yuebiju by himself when it’s time to eat.
As soon as she heard that Xiaoju was gone, Nangong Yue immediately looked at Huamei, who hurriedly reported: "Prince Concubine, I haven't seen Xiaobai for a long time."
Nangong Yue comforted Xiao Fei softly and said, "I guess Xiao Ju played with Xiao Bai again and lost track of time. I sent someone to look for them."
Xiao Fei responded, still a little worried, and left with Tao Yao, planning to go back to Yue Biju to search first.
Because of the two little guys, there was a commotion in Bixiaotang, and the maids were looking around, looking for them.
But in important places such as the pharmacy and study room, only Huamei, Queer and a few other maids can enter and exit. Especially in the pharmacy, no one can compete with Huamei.
Because they all know that because Nangong Yue is testing new drugs recently, there are several fat rats in the pharmacy, and the timid maids dare not approach them at all.
So no one has noticed yet that a fat orange cat is pacing leisurely in the pharmacy.
It tilted its round head and sniffed east and west, then stared at the mice in the cage with a pair of golden eyes.
"Squeak ..." The mice were frightened, and some seemed to suddenly hit the chicken blood, and madly moved in the cage ...
Little Orange took two steps closer curiously. Unexpectedly, in the next moment, a mouse suddenly fell on its back, its limbs stiff, and a pair of bloodshot mouse eyes stared in the direction of the orange cat, as if its eyes were about to pop out. Similar.
The other mice screamed even more crazily.
Xiao Ju had never seen such a scene before. She was dumbfounded and screamed miserably: "Meow--"
Soon, a cat with white mandarin duck eyes got in through the half-open window, purred in confusion, and jumped to Xiao Ju's side.
"Meow--" Xiao Ju shivered and leaned her body, which was much fatter than the white cat, towards the white cat, and glanced timidly at the cages of mice.
Xiao Bai looked over with confusion and found that it was just a mouse. He said "meow meow" to Xiao Ju several times with disdain, and was filled with indignation: As a cat, how can you be afraid of mice!
"Meow meow meow..."
At this time, the door curtain was opened, and Huamei in Tsing Yi walked in, but Xiaobai did not keep silent because of this, and continued to teach Xiaoju "meow meow".
Seeing the two of them, Huamei couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Xiaobai, Xiaoju, it turns out you are here!"
But then she frowned nervously. There are poisonous weeds everywhere in this pharmacy. If the cat accidentally eats it...
She quickly checked it out, and finally felt relieved when she saw that the herbs were all neatly placed, with no trace of being randomly turned over. At this time, her eyes suddenly fell on the iron cage that was placed alone. She was delighted to find that the mouse inside was running around and was still alive!
Huamei was overjoyed. She knelt down and said to the two cats: "Xiaobai, Xiaoju, the Crown Princess and the eldest lady are all looking for you. Let's get out quickly."
"Meow!"
Xiaobai shouted proudly, then called "meow" at Xiaoju twice, and walked out swaggeringly.
Huamei followed him out, carefully locked the door of the pharmacy, and hurried to report to Nangong Yue that Xiaobai and Xiaoju had been found, and that the mouse was still alive.
Soon, Nangong Yue came to this small pharmacy.
"Prince Princess, look, it's this mouse." Huamei pointed at the gray rat in the cage and said.
The squirrel was circling restlessly in the cage, making a "squeaking" sound. The magpie stood tensely by the door curtain, ready, as if if something went wrong, she would run away. .
Huamei continued to report: "Prince Princess, three hours ago, I gave it two tablespoons of swamp mud water, and then fed it a T-shaped pill made of silver snakeroot, blackhead grass and salthorn grass. One pill, and it has been sleeping since then. I just found out that it has woken up and is still alive and kicking. There is no abnormality for the time being."
Nangong Yue moved slightly closer to the cage, carefully observing the eyes, coat color, muzzle and nose of the squirrel. After a while, she said: "Keep feeding this squirrel for a while, and then find another one according to the formula just now." Try it on a few mice to see if the antidote works."
"Yes, Crown Princess." Huamei bowed and responded.
Following that, Nangong Yue took Que'er out of the pharmacy. Que'er, who was holding his breath, suddenly let out a long sigh of relief. The pharmacy has been making medicines recently, and the smell inside has become so complex that I don't know what words to use to describe it. , compared to the fresh air outside, it's like a paradise or a hell.
Nangong Yue only stayed inside for a stick of incense, but when she came out, she was already smelling of medicine, and the weird smell almost penetrated into her hair.
After returning to the house, she immediately took a bath and changed clothes, and sent Magpie to take a bath as well.
When Ying'er was wringing Nangong Yue's hair, there was a sound of lifting the curtain, and Baihui finally came back, holding a three-layer red lacquered wooden box in her hand.
"Prince Princess, my servant has already conveyed the matter you told me to Butler Zhu. In addition, this is a new medicine that has just been trial-produced by Huichun Hall, Lijia Pharmacy and Deji Hall, and my servant has brought it back." Baihui reported. .
Nangong Yue raised her hand to signal Ying'er to stop, walked to the table by the window, and ordered Baihui to take out the medicine.
Baihui opened the three-layer red lacquered wooden box, divided the bottles and cans inside into three parts, placed them on the table, and said: "Prince Princess, this green bottle is from the Li family. In the drug store, the light blue one is from Huichuntang, and Dejitang uses this small white porcelain jar."
Nangong Yue casually picked up a small cyan porcelain bottle closest to her. After opening the cork, a faint medicinal fragrance immediately wafted out. Nangong Yue sniffed attentively, nodded slightly with satisfaction, then poured out a brown pill, scraped off some powder with a silver knife, observed and tasted...
She opened one porcelain bottle after another, looking carefully at the medicines prepared in each pharmacy... Gradually, the smell of medicine from the bottles filled the room.
After a while, she put down the small porcelain jar in her hand, with a satisfied smile on her face, and nodded: "Baihui, you will go back later and let them follow this recipe and make it in large quantities. Let's separate them first." Make 10,000 pills, and try to deliver 3,000 pills within five days... no, three days later."
"Yes, Crown Princess."
Baihui agreed and left, went to have lunch, then went out again, and rushed to three pharmacies without stopping to give detailed instructions...
By the time she came out of the last Deji Hall, the sun had already set. The door of Deji Hall faced west. The afterglow of the setting sun shone directly at Baihui's eyes. She reflexively blocked it with her hands. .
She was about to get into the carriage when a strange male voice came from the right: "Girl, please stay."
Baihui turned around and saw an ordinary-looking middle-aged man in a blue robe looking at her with a smile on his face.
"Any advice?" Baihui said lightly.
The middle-aged man quickly bowed to Baihui and said in a low voice: "Young lady came to Deji Hall to buy medicine, right? I want to discuss a business with you. I wonder if she can lend me a step to talk?"
Baihui hesitated for a moment, then nodded, and followed the middle-aged man a few steps in the other direction.
The middle-aged man said: "This girl is also in the medicine business. She often walks on the street of this medicine store. I have seen the girl in and out of this area several times, so I took the liberty to recommend myself. I don't know if the girl is ordering this time. What kind of medicine is it? My pharmacy is no worse than Deji Tang. It has all kinds of medicinal materials, and the concocting master and pharmaceutical master are also first-rate. If the girl can help me to connect with the girl's employer..."
Baihui pondered for a moment and declined politely: "This boss, the saying goes, 'Do it when you're familiar with it, don't do it raw'. My master is satisfied with several pharmacies that cooperate with us, and there is no need for a new pharmacy for the time being. If If this boss is interested, you can tell me the name and location of your shop. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely mention it to my master."
The middle-aged man was not disappointed, and continued without any discouragement: "This girl, my surname is Jin, my Qianjin Tang is at the end of the street, and it is also a century-old shop. If the girl is free, I can take her to her. Go over and have a look. I just want the girl to bring a message to the girl's master. Whether it succeeds or not, the girl's benefits are indispensable." As he spoke, he smiled meaningfully, and using his wide sleeves as a cover, he secretly stuffed something into Bai Bai's head. flowers.
Baihui's eyes flashed, and she seemed hesitant, but she still accepted it and said: "Okay, Boss Jin, I can try to help spread the word, whether it is successful or not..."
"If the deal fails, the favor remains." The middle-aged man said enthusiastically, "I won't blame the girl."
"If there is good news, I will go to Qianjin Hall to find Boss Jin." Baihui said.
"Thank you so much, girl," the middle-aged man clasped his fists enthusiastically and watched Baihui get on the carriage. He was still standing in the distance until the carriage gradually moved away.
In the carriage, Bai Hui opened a corner of the curtain, looked back, and then quietly lowered the curtain.
The green-covered carriage went straight back to Bixiaotang. When Baihui got off the carriage, the sky was already dim.
She hurried back to Nangong Yue’s yard, went to the small study to return to work, and reported all the things she had just met with the middle-aged man. She also took out a red envelope: "Prince Concubine, this is the one from Qianjin Hall Boss Jin secretly gave it to his slave."
Look at the raised corner of the purse, it seems that there is a piece of silver stuffed inside.
In most houses, the people responsible for purchasing are all fat men. In order to make business, it is normal for merchants to stuff some money into them. When the water is clear, there are no fish. As long as it doesn't hinder the errands, Nangong Yue doesn't care.
"...Qianjintang." Nangong Yue picked up her purse and played with it for a while, then said thoughtfully: "Baihui, go and inquire about this pharmacy."
"Yes, Crown Princess."
