[Sui and Tang Dynasties] Wise husbands emerge from under the whip

Shui Sixin saw the new red-painted carriage parked in front of her house before the time of Sizhong. The person sitting in the front of the carriage was an old man with gray temples. When she saw the old man, she said please wait a moment, then turned around and gave the basket to the servant before getting into the carriage.

Empty hands, not even a decent medicine box, the old coachman shook his head, it was the first time he saw a doctor without a medicine box.

The carriage drove all the way to the East Palace, Shui Sixin lifted the curtain, looked up and saw the majestic building standing in front of her.The dark red glazed tiles refracted the sunlight, making her feel dazed for a short time.

"Miss Shui, please." Seeing the woman standing at the front of the carriage, blocking her view with the back of her hand, Qiutang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty is already here, please come with me, Miss Shui."

"Young lady, just call me Si Xin." Shui Si Xin said after following Qiu Tang.

Avoiding the eyes of many people along the way, Shui Sixin was led straight to Fengqi Garden, passed through the arched door, and there was a pleasing-looking maid standing by the wooden door.

"This is Miss Shui," she greeted warmly, her eyes curled into crescents when she smiled, "Go in, everything is ready."

Under her guidance, Shui Sixin crossed the threshold, walked around a screen and saw a woman nestled on a soft couch leaning on a big pillow.

There is no makeup applied, so the skin looks slightly pale, and the lip color is more intense red, which is a symptom of mild poisoning.Her hair was simply pulled into a bun, and even without those pearl hairpins, she still couldn't hide her natural majesty.

Holding a book in her hand, maybe the content of the book is so attractive that even her own arrival could not attract her attention.

"Minister Shui, I have met your empress." She bent her knees and said.

Kejing raised his head, put down the book in his hand and sat up straight, saying: "You are here, Chunyuan, give me a seat."

"Minnv thanked the empress first, but Minnv thinks it's better to do it as soon as possible, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Kejing looked at her approvingly, then winked at Qiutang.Qiutang understood, took out the medicine bowl hidden in the cabinet together with a piece of paper, and handed it to Shui Sixin.

"According to the girl's medical skills, I believe that such a small matter will not trouble the girl. As for the piece of paper, I wrote it down when I was bored. I have also learned a little medical knowledge, please take a look."

Shui Sixin took some medicine with a spoon and put it into her mouth. After the medicine juice drank, she spread out the paper and took a closer look.

"Your Majesty did a good job," Shui Si Xin raised her head, a rare smile appeared on her face, although it was fleeting, Ke Jing could see it clearly.She paused for a while, then continued, "However, the empress still missed one thing."

In Ke Jing's eyes, she said solemnly, "Musk." After the words fell, she did not see shock from the young face in front of her, but surprise.

Shui Sixin understood that according to Ke Jing's ability, it shouldn't be difficult to guess what's inside.

I'm afraid she knew it earlier and just pretended not to know, that's why she was so calm. After all, women often use musk, which is harmful rather than beneficial, especially for pregnant women.As for the reasons for this, it is better to know as little as possible. The affairs of the palace are too complicated, and knowing too much will only cause trouble for the upper body.

Naturally, she is not a good person. She can leave after seeing a doctor. If the patient is healthy and does not need a doctor, her task will be completed.

Only many years later, when she recalled the thought that came to her, she would still ask herself, if she had chosen to pretend not to know, then would it have been another ending.However, she knew very well in her heart that even if she pretended not to know, she still couldn't escape those eyes that could directly enter people's hearts.

That's why she chose to confess.

Just like when they drank together in the pavilion many years later, Ke Jing held the wine glass and told her that a woman who is too smart is a good thing or a bad thing, the key depends on how the smart woman uses her smartness.

And she gave her intelligence to this woman, and also fulfilled herself.

After leaving the Eastern Palace, Shui Sixin looked at the sun above her head, and used her hands to block the dazzling light.However... Even if the light is blocked, the strands still pass through the fingers.

Her heartbeat gradually turned calm, she got into the carriage and left the East Palace.

Three days later, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty held a large banquet in the inner courtyard of the palace because of General He Lou's attack on Tuyuhun, and the protagonist of this banquet was another person, Li Yuan.

Because it is a banquet, fine wine and good things are naturally indispensable. As for the fine wine and food, it is naturally based on frugality. Yang Jian, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, has always supported frugality. Waste every bit.

Looking at the food on the table, Ke Jing glanced past the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, with a sneer on his lips.

It is good to be frugal, but to be too frugal is to be stingy.Unfortunately, Yang Jian belongs to the latter.The history books she has read all praise his virtue of frugality, so in her impression, this emperor is also crowned with the reputation of the man who is the most budget-conscious and housekeeping man in history. When she saw it with her own eyes, it turned out that he was the person who took notes in the previous dynasty. Too good at being a man, a little bit of morality will be rendered with words.

It seems that it is not only the Ming Dynasty in front of her, or the Qing Dynasty where she is, this kind of beautification is still left over from ancient times.

"Why doesn't my sister move her chopsticks? Could it be that the food doesn't suit my sister's appetite? Ah! It seems that my sister's body is just right, and she can't eat too much. Hey, it's a pity that the table is so delicious," Wang Liangyuan looked sideways at Ke Jing , picked up a crystal-clear grape with two onion fingers, and looked at it carefully, "This grape looks very good. It seems that Father has put a lot of thought into this banquet."

Ke Jing sneered, "Since that's the case, then my sister can eat together with my sister."

Wang Liangyuan snorted, and said a few words in her heart, "It makes you greedy", and then gracefully put the grapes into her mouth.After taking a bite, the two slender eyebrows were frowned together, like entangled ropes.

Seeing her wrinkled face, Ke Jing naturally knew the sour taste that could make people lose their teeth. She kept her composure, looked at her with a smile, and asked enthusiastically: "How does it taste? Does it still suit my sister's appetite? You I know, my sister can't eat, so I can only ask you."

Wang Liangyuan's expression froze for a long time. At first, she wanted to spit out the sour grapes in her mouth, but now that Ke Jing watched, she had no chance to spit up.

So she became cruel, closed her eyes and swallowed the sour grapes with a thud, and when she opened them, she put on a smiling face again and said, "Oh, I don't know why, my sister likes to eat sour things recently, what sour things?" I like plums and jujubes, as long as they are sour, I can’t eat the others. Sister, do you think this is not good?”

"Oh, that's it," Ke Jing dragged out her voice, swaying people's tastes, "I heard that only pregnant women like to eat sour, maybe..." She paused for a while on purpose, Aiming at Wang Liangyuan's stomach, he continued, "Why don't you let the doctor come and see? If my sister is pregnant, it will be a good thing for the royal family!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Liangyuan quickly shook her head, explaining that she just likes sour food.

Ke Jing didn't intend to waste her words with her, so she just said that if my sister likes sour food, she will order someone to buy you some sour food some other day, and then turn her head and ignore her.

Wang Liangyuan was so angry that she couldn't provoke Ke Jing, but was hit back by the other party.But in the next second, the third woman in the harem, who was getting more and more frustrated, looked at the chicken legs on the plate, and made another plan. She held the chicken legs, coughed lightly on purpose to attract Ke Jing's attention, and put the chicken legs into the husband's lap next to her. bowl.

Looking at Yang Yong again, he stared blankly at the front, completely unaware of the extra chicken leg in his bowl, and the expectant gaze of the woman beside him.

Wang Liangyuan was taken aback, and followed Yang Yong's line of sight.

In the center of the hall, the sound of silk and bamboo string music circled the beams, and dancers in crimson dresses shook their sleeves and danced to the beat of the music.The red lotus pattern between the eyebrows sets off the delicate and beautiful faces, and the red lips are perfectly curved. Every rotation, every sleeve swing, and every glance is fascinating.

Yang Yong's gaze was fixed on one of the dancers.The dancer has a slender waist, a soft and graceful figure, and a charming dancing posture.

This time, Wang Liangyuan was so angry that she didn't know what to do. She looked at the dancer girl as if she was about to tear her into pieces, and then looked at the princess, she was like a normal person, not caring about Yang Yong's actions at all. Instead... he still stared at those dancers like him, even more seriously than Yang Yong.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Ke Jing doesn't bother to be as knowledgeable as you, and you still pester others to compare this to that.It's a pity that Wang Liangyuan has a good face but no good mind, so she is destined not to be a stupid bird.

In fact, besides looking at the dancer girl, Ke Jing is also looking at the person she wants to see, just like the middle-aged man sitting opposite her to the right and whispering to Yang Guang. Yang Su, the imperial historian, Yang Guang's important right-hand man in the future, Heyu Culture and the key figure who helped Yang Guang become emperor.

So...if she can get this person, then her future work will have unexpected gains.

"Ministers, today is a day of celebration. You don't have to be so restrained. It's best to eat and drink well." Yang Jian in a yellow robe stood up from the dragon chair with a wine bottle in his hand, and faced the civil and military officials below. The official made a false gift.

Immediately, everyone stood up flattered, and the sound of clattering beads could be heard in the hall.Followed by the congratulatory sound of "Long live my emperor, long live, long live".

Yang Jian smiled and said, "If there was no General He Lou this time, our Tai Sui would not have defeated Tuyuhun."

He Lou Ziqian, who was wearing a court uniform, hurriedly bowed and said: "It is also an honor for Zigan to serve the emperor. If General Li hadn't made timely suggestions in this battle, our army would not have defeated Gu Tuhun so quickly and sacrificed his life." The generals and soldiers are only afraid..."

In his middle age, He Lou Zigan, who had participated in countless battles, did not take credit for his victories, but mentioned Li Yuan's outstanding achievements many times.Ke Jing looked sideways at the bearded He Lou Zigan, feeling admiration for this old general in his heart.

People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong, especially the old people who have taken credit. It is rare for an old general to be humble and not ask for credit.

When Ke Jing was looking at General He Lou Zigan, he suddenly felt two gazes from the front left.
