Chapter 381: Jisheng Hall
Chapter 381
When Yaoqin and Guzheng were talking, Erfu didn't interject, just quietly looked down at the phoenix crying blood that looked no different from the wildflowers on the roadside, and waited for Yaoqin to stop talking, then raised his eyes and swept his eyes left and right, and saw that no one paid attention to take out a brocade from the sleeve tube, carefully pinched a few small flowers, and pinched a few leaves.
After doing all this, Erfu was weak and trembling, and hurriedly wrapped the veil carefully and sent it to the guzheng.
"You sneak out in a while, find an insightful doctor and take a look, we can't make an assertion just based on a few words from him, and we can't just take the past seriously, there must be a certainty!" With that, Erfu dragged Yaoqin and Guzheng, who were still a little stunned, into the distance, away from this place that looked ordinary, but made her legs weak, and went straight to Xiying Pavilion.
As soon as Erfu walked away, he Tala, who seemed to have walked far before, walked out from behind the rockery, looked at Erfu's back that had disappeared at the end of the corridor, pursed his lips and smiled, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes.
"Master, you can't take such a risk next time, if you want to investigate this thing, just let the slaves and maids pick it up!" Yaoqin was half-dragged away by Erfu, and it took a while to react, thinking about Erfu's adventurous actions before, and nagged in disapproval.
Erfu waved her hand disappreciatively, "It's just a small matter, and besides, there is a veil across it, so it's probably not a big deal!" If it doesn't go well, you can just go back to the house and wait for us, so you don't have to take any risks. lest others see something!", he said and winked at the guzheng, signaling that she could leave now, and Yaoqin was following her on the left and right.
Compared to Yaoqin......
- Although Guzheng does not often follow her on weekdays, she has a calm temperament and is organized, and she does not need Erfu's special advice, so she keeps the body and things in her yard in order. The most secure.
is also suitable for doing such a careful thing, and as a big palace maid who has a face in front of her aunt and grandmother, she goes in and out even if someone sees her. She didn't deliberately stop and interrogate, so Erf handed this thing into her hands.
Guzheng didn't dare to stay, so he hurriedly stuffed the handkerchief he was still holding in his hand into the placket of his clothes, and whispered a few words to Yaoqin. He followed a winding path to a corner gate.
To say. The mansion is big, and there are many corner doors left here, and the guzheng didn't bother much at all, and he didn't even need to open the road, so he had already sneaked out of the Guerjia Mansion with a group of cooks who came to the house to help, and walked out of the Guerjia Mansion from the small door in the mezzanine behind the big kitchen, and beckoned an inconspicuous blue duo to carry a small sedan chair, and ran straight to the Jishengtang outside the front door.
Jishengtang, as a medical hall and pharmacy that existed in Beijing from the past dynasties, has the medical skills of several doctors in the shop. Although he is not necessarily superior to the imperial doctors waiting in the palace, he is also a well-informed person with real skills.
Guzheng before going to Jishengtang. Specially changed into a home-style jacket and skirt of muslin in the garment shop, as if she was the grandmother of an ordinary rich family, she walked into the hospital with a handkerchief, called the young man to ask a few words in a low voice, turned around and walked to a consultation table in the southwest corner of the hall.
Behind the table was a middle-aged man who looked to be no more than forty years old, wearing a royal blue dark striped straight jacket, with a white face and a slight beard, clear eyes, and slightly pursed lips.
According to Guzheng from the mouth of the little guy, this is a capable person who went south and north with the big shopkeeper of Jishengtang to purchase all kinds of medicinal materials, although the medical skills are not the best, but he is the most knowledgeable one, and the requirements of the person Guzheng is looking for, she is not here to see the disease, what is the obstacle to the level of medical skills!
However, Guzheng didn't take things out rashly, she understood the truth of many people's eyes, she rolled up her sleeves slightly, and came to the middle-aged man, put her wrist on the pulse pillow, and said with a smile: "Sir, help me take a look, I feel a little uncomfortable in this body recently, and my throat hurts tightly, but what kind of decoction do you want to take!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, put aside the medical book he was looking at, slowly stretched out his hand, put his three fingers slightly on the guzheng wrist, squinted his eyes, seemed to feel something with his heart, and muttered for a moment before he said slowly: "When you enter the thirty-ninth year, most people will have such a problem, after all, there is a charcoal basin burning in the house, and the air outside is also very dry, drink more water, and then eat some warm soup, it will be fine, and you don't need to grab medicine to eat." It's the truth that medicine is three parts poisonous, and the girl must understand!"
As he spoke, he raised his eyes and glanced at Guzheng's eyebrows, revealing an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
If you want to say the magic of traditional Chinese medicine, it is really too terrible, if you meet a person with superb medical skills, it is really not even a little secret can not be hidden, although this man's medical skills are not the best, but you can also see some of the facts that the guzheng can hide from the pulse of the guzheng, not to mention that the difference between the daughter and the married woman is too obvious.
Gu Zheng smiled, withdrew his wrist, and then took out a purse containing two silver bills from his sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Sir, I have superb medical skills, and I have come here to answer the orders of our master." ”
The middle-aged man shook out the silver coin in his purse and looked at it twice, then stared at the guzheng for a moment, then got up and led the guzheng to a dark room with a blue curtain.
"What errand does the master have to explain to Feng?" As soon as he entered the door, the man sent the medicine boy who was decocting the medicine to guard the door, pulled the guzheng into the inner room, and asked in a low voice.
This person is a doctor in distress that Erf rescued in the past.
That was what Erfu did when she first came to the Qing Dynasty, and she never thought that a person she saved casually could now become such a high-ranking person in Jishengtang.
This man was originally a famous doctor in a county town in southern Shaanxi.
Originally, he was also a person with a family of land and wealth, but because he accidentally learned about the private affairs of a mansion, the man was afraid that he would reveal the secret, so he dug a pit and set up a trap all the way to plot against him. Not only was his wife and daughter killed, but even he himself escaped with the help of others.
Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials, and the poor have not fought with the rich. Although the man hated the man's ruthlessness, he could only grit his teeth and endure it, and he was displaced all the way, and finally ran to the capital, wanting to find a place to live and live, but he didn't want to enter the city and be stolen and entangled, and he was angry. Suddenly fell ill on the side of the road, and it was thanks to meet Erf, a good man from modern times with a pure heart. This is another gift of silver, and it is to make peace with the monk in the temple to save his life.
The man who survived the life and death hurdled naturally tried his best to find out Erf's identity and wanted to repay her. It's just that Erfu entered the palace from the daughter of the Guarjia Mansion to the four Beile side blessings with a distinguished status. I really didn't give him a chance to repay the favor, and this was the first time that Erfu had asked people to come to Jishengtang to ask him for help.
As for how Guzheng knew, it was naturally said by Erfu when she asked her to come out before, and she only knew that the person she was looking for was surnamed Feng Minghao, but she didn't know the appearance of the man, so she called the young man to listen to a few words, but she didn't want this Feng Hao to become one of the best figures in Jishengtang now, but it made her a little unbelievable that her master had the heart to arrange such a means in advance. That's why she deliberately exposed a red gold skein bracelet engraved with the logo of the Fourth Master's Mansion on her wrist to test it.
Gu Zheng didn't know the details inside, but he saw that Feng Hao was very respectful to his master. In addition, Erfu had already instructed before, so he took out the handkerchief stuffed in his arms, "The master asked me to ask about the origin of this thing." ”
Feng Hao raised his hand to take the carefully wrapped Jinpa, and slowly opened it, he was stunned.
"Did someone mix this thing into the master's food?" As a doctor who had been able to discover the private affairs of the inner house, Feng Hao recognized the origin of this thing at a glance, and then his heart jumped, and he asked very eagerly.
"No, the master accidentally found this thing from the yard of his mother's house, I heard that it is not very good for the human body, and I am worried that someone wants to do evil things, so I don't worry about letting me come to Mr. to take a look!" Gu Zheng saw Feng Hao's worried face, and hurriedly explained in a low voice.
"That's good, that's good!" Feng Hao relieved his heart and carefully explained the origin of this thing to Guzheng.
This thing is just as he Talashi said a little I don't understand, although it usually looks like just an inconspicuous little flower, touching, smelling is fine, but it can't see blood, or can not be in contact with the internal organs, usually there is a wound on the body or something to touch this flower, fine pollen along the wound into the body, at most it will make people shortness of breath, easy to produce palpitations, but it will be a period of time before the symptoms subside.
But if it is mixed into the food and eaten, it is really a terrible thing, especially when it comes to wine, the speed of incursion is accelerated, and it is definitely not smaller than the du/xing of the poison, so Feng Hao was so anxious when he saw this thing before.
"Is there any solution?" Guzheng continued.
Feng Hao nodded slightly, motioned to the guzheng to wait, turned around and left the room, out of nowhere, took out a booklet that seemed to be used to record the medicinal effects of various plants and trees, returned to the guzheng, pointed to a strange-looking plant on it, and said in a chewing voice: "Everything in the world has its own fate, and such a dangerous and inconspicuous thing will naturally be accompanied by something that explains the medicinal properties of this substance."
According to local farmers, the name of this flower is Feng Weeping Blood. Whenever there is phoenix crying blood, there are always some weeds next to it that are different from ordinary weeds, and once this weed is separated from this flower, the flowers will wither and the grass will wither, and they will not be able to live alone.
That kind of wild grass is green all the year round, the thin leaves are lush, and there are red spots on the leaf surface, it is very easy to distinguish, and the locals call this grass phoenix cry blood. ”
Gu Zheng got a satisfactory answer, turned around and was about to leave, when he heard Feng Hao talking in the back, "The master has a pure heart, and he will not use this thing to do evil, but such a thing that is not known to ordinary people is still very dangerous, the girl should still let the master find an opportunity to destroy the blood of the phoenix cry and the blood of the phoenix!" After speaking, regardless of whether the guzheng listened to it or not, he called the little medicine boy who was guarding the door outside to lead the guzheng out.
Meanwhile......
Erfu had also taken Yaoqin to the warm pavilion of Xiying Pavilion and sat down, taking off the heavy and warm fur, wearing only thin cotton clothes, under him was a large kang with a warm fire and a thick elastic flower mat, and beside him was a kang table with a few dried fruits and snacks in a box, holding a book that had read most of the time, looking very comfortable.
Yaoqin stood in the shadow of the floor cover on the side in a regular manner, bowing her head and looking very respectful.
A few of the little maids in the Guerjia Mansion next to them were very curious about this Ergege, who had never been looked down upon by their own Fujin, and peeked at each other from time to time, and looked at each other, which was a little more lively than the voices made by the rough maids who were messily arranging the banquet outside.
However, Erfu didn't notice it, and devoted himself to the book of words in his hand, which is a story about a rural villager who meets an old fairy and eventually becomes a Taoist immortal, during which various supporting characters who seek to be stepped on and slapped in the face and various types of women compete to recommend themselves for pillows, in short, it is very similar to the novels that Erf has seen in modern times.
Although it is half-literate and half-white, it is a bit mouth-wrenching to read, but Erf still reads it with relish.
After all, such a story is much better than those bloody plots of talented and beautiful people, rich sons and poor girls.
Just when Erfu saw that the male protagonist was about to face the biggest negative supporting role, Mama Chun came over, "Ergege, Fujin asked the slave to come over and invite you to the front hall to talk!"
Being stuck in such an interesting place, Erfu was a little unhappy, but she didn't get angry on the spot, or do anything else rude, sighed softly and put down the notebook in her hand, beckoned Yaoqin to come over and tidy up the hem of her robe for her, got up and wrapped it in a big coat and walked to the front hall opposite the weeping flower door.
This front hall is not the hall of the front yard, but a five-room hall in the nearest hanging flower door, which is the place where Guo Luo Luo used to receive distinguished guests, and ordinary people really can't get in, that is, Erfu has never been here, and the door is closed on ordinary days, and only a few rough maids can enter from the back door to clean up.
At this moment, the partition door of the middle and bright room was wide open, and in front of the north-south hollow floor cover inlaid with magpie Dengmei porcelain plate paintings, Guo Luo Luo and Er Rou were sitting on the Taishi chairs on both sides of the square table, talking to the ladies who came to the house to greet Er Rou.
"Erfu, please be happy with the concubine!" In front of outsiders, Erfu naturally did not dare to neglect the etiquette, and just walked to the edge of the orangutan felt palace carpet spread in the hall, Yingying made a thousand blessings and greeted him softly.
"Sister, sit down and talk, these red tapes will be avoided!" As she spoke, Er Rou beckoned Yaoqin, who was following Erfu to greet her, and helped Erfu get up.
At the same time, several ladies who were sitting down had also gotten up to greet Erfu, who smiled and nodded, walked to the first place that had been vacated and sat down, raised his hand slightly, and said, "Sit down and talk!" (To be continued.) )
