[Red Mansion] The Wife of Powerful Officials

This is the ninth year that Lingkong traveled to the Qing Dynasty.

His parents in this time and space had died before he was a teenager.There is only one younger brother, He Lin, who is six years younger than He Shen.

Even if Ling Kong doesn't understand history, he should know that during the Qianlong period, He Lin was the younger brother of the famous No. [-] corrupt man in the world, He Shen.

That is to say—he was dressed as He Shen.

Now, he is He Shen.

"Brother!"

"Brother..."

Childish cries from far to near.

After a while, I saw a small man, wearing a rose-purple mandarin jacket with a large breast, chubbyly stepping over the threshold, and arrived in front of He Shen.

He Lin was born with dystocia. She was weak since she was a child, and after several years of recuperation, she didn't get better. Her little face was pale all day long, and she looked very pitiful.

"Up the mountain, up the mountain." He Lin shook He Shen's sleeve.

Today is He Lin's birthday, and it is also the anniversary of their mother's death. It is customary to go up the mountain to worship their mother.

Their mother died of dystocia and was not allowed to enter the ancestral grave, so they were placed on the back mountain of a Taoist temple.

When Heshen lamented the strictness of the various ritual systems in ancient times, he was thankful that it was because of this that they could worship their mother more conveniently.

The He Shen brothers are like transparent people in the mansion, and no one cares when they come in and out.The concierge watched the two brothers go out hand in hand, and even yawned, thinking to himself, if it was lost outside, it would be a good thing.

The mountains are bitterly cold.

However, He Shentong and Lin both have body heat and are dressed in round clothes, so they don't feel the slightest bit of coldness.

Not so with others.

Following He Shen was a soft sedan chair carried by several strong men. The strong men were dressed thinly, and the people in the soft sedan seemed to be not much better. He Shenjing heard that they were gasping for breath. the voice.

Vaguely, a childish voice can still be heard talking.

There is a child in the car.

He Shen looked at He Lin who was climbing upwards with a bow and a bow, and his heart suddenly softened.

"He Lin, where is the hand stove hidden in your sleeve?"

"Yes, here." He Lin took it out with difficulty, and raised her hand to put it into He Shen's arms: "Brother, is brother cold?"

"See that sedan chair behind us?"

"Well."

"Send this to them, there is a child who may be younger than you in the sedan chair."

He Lin never questioned every word He Shen said, he hugged the stove and ran to the soft sedan in an instant.

He Lin was born with red lips and white teeth, and was dressed in a pleasant manner. The men who carried the sedan chair did not stop him, and they all stopped.

The car curtain was quickly raised.

He Lin sent the hand stove forward without speaking.

The one who raised the sedan chair curtain was a man with regular features and a majestic expression. As soon as he lowered his head, he saw the hot air rising from the hand stove.

"What is this for?" The man was astonished.

He Lin had to turn her head to look at He Shen: "My elder brother asked me to send it to you. He said that you have a doll that is younger than me." After finishing speaking, He Lin murmured and added: "Brother I'm afraid you are cold..."

The man was slightly astonished again, but then he put away his majestic expression, and said with a smile: "Thank you two friends." After finishing speaking, he carefully took the hand stove over, then turned slightly sideways, and stuffed the hand stove into it. someone.

He Shen stood not far away, and when the man turned sideways, he had a clear view of the inside of the sedan chair.

There was a little girl sitting in it, just about four or five years old, her face was snow-white, and there was no trace of blood on her cheeks.Her eyebrows are distinct, as if she asked someone to use a charcoal pencil to outline them bit by bit.The whole person is made of water, so that those who saw it would unconsciously turn into a puddle of water.

The little girl seemed to have noticed He Shen's gaze, and looked over in a daze.

She was combing a double bun, and a few strands of hair hung down on her forehead, which was being slightly fluttered by the wind.Xu Shi was a little itchy, stared at He Shen just once, then couldn't help squinting his eyes, and his two delicate eyebrows were also closely knit together.

He Shen even felt that his heart was softened by rubbing hands.

I don't know where the water and soil can raise such a loving little girl.

After He Lin finished what He Shen had told him, he turned around and came back.

The man naturally knew who this kindness came from, so he turned his gaze to He Shen and said, "Thank you very much."

The man seemed to be rushing up the mountain, with a trace of anxiety between his brows, and He Shen didn't greet him, but nodded slightly, and led He Lin back to the side, letting them pass first.

The soft sedan gradually disappeared from their sight.

And He Shentong and Lin also embarked on another path.

After paying homage to their mother, the two continued to go up. Half an hour later, a gymnasium filled with fireworks appeared in front of their eyes.

He Shen saw at a glance that the soft sedan was resting outside the door.

It was winter at this time, but the Taoist temple was not deserted, but very lively.

It's all because the Taoist temple is extremely effective. Nine out of ten people who come to ask for their wishes will always get what they want.And there is also a Taoist leader in the Taoist temple, who is very familiar with the art of Qi and Huang, and has a great reputation. There are countless people who come here to seek medicine, so this Taoist temple is never short of incense.

"My lord!" A little Daoist boy greeted him happily: "My lord, please. Daoist, he..." At this point, the little Daoist boy's voice stopped abruptly, and he smiled awkwardly, and said: "Just now a person came , blocking the Taoist priest from letting him go."

Xiao Daotong sighed as he spoke.

But he didn't stop on his feet, and he went straight to a small courtyard with He Shen and the two of them.

This is the residence of Master Xuan.

He Shen glanced around and saw a few people waiting in the yard, some old and some young, they all looked at the door in front of them, not daring to make any big noises.

Xiao Daotong stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Young master is here."

The door, which had not been opened for a long time, opened suddenly.

Although other people are envious and jealous, they also understand the rules, and they are not angry, let alone noisy.

He Shen left He Lin outside, let Xiao Dao Tong look after him, and then entered the wing.

In the wing room, someone was already sitting in front of Taoist Xuan.

Presumably, it was the person who blocked the Taoist leader in Xiaodaotong's mouth.

He Shen bypassed the screen and walked out graciously.

The person who was talking with Master Xuan turned his head instinctively when he heard the voice.

"It's you?!" The man was surprised, but then he smiled: "It's a coincidence. When I was on the mountainside just now, I really thank you little friend."

Although the man smiled, the anxiety between his brows did not go away.

Obviously, he also came to ask for medicine, and he has not been able to ask for it.

He Shen's eyes passed over him, and fell on the little girl sitting on his lap.

The little girl glanced at He Shen, but then looked away embarrassedly.The stove was lit in the room, and it was very warm. Finally, a little blood was seen on the little girl's cheeks.It was like a patch of white snow, finally smudged a little crimson.

Eye-catching.

"Young master." Taoist Xuan stood up and bowed in front of He Shen.

He Shen is only nine years old this year. Although he is not short in stature, he still looks much younger in front of grown men.It seemed a little strange that the Taoist priest actually bowed to him.

The man couldn't help but look at He Shen more.

He Shen asked: "Is this master here to ask for medicine?"

The man opened his mouth and was about to speak, but the preacher had already spoken first: "Exactly."

He Shen couldn't help looking at the little girl: "Is she sick?"

No wonder there was no blood on his face.

He Shen suddenly remembered that when He Lin was just born, everyone thought he was going to die, but he survived until now, and finally grew some flesh on his face.

Because of He Lin, He Shen looked at the little girl and couldn't help but feel more pity for her.

But the man shook his head and said: "It's not a little girl. When I gave birth to my little girl, she hurt her roots. She has been sick for several years, and now her illness is getting worse..." The man frowned: "The little girl is still young, how can I lose her?" Mother? That's why I brought my little girl here, and asked for medicine for Jianjing in front of Taoist Master Xuan."

He Shen couldn't help looking at Master Xuan.

Master Xuan suddenly became nervous, and he whispered: "It's not that I refuse to apply medicine, but that my wife has been ill for a long time, and it's getting worse. I'm not a god, how can I be saved? "

As he said that, Master Xuan also glanced at He Shen.

He Shen felt amused in his heart.

Xuantong wanted to make this money, but he just ran out of ideas, and this was pointing at him.

"It would be good if the Taoist gave me a prescription." The man said in a deep voice, the anxiety between his brows became more serious.

Incidentally, the little girl was also affected, her brows furrowed again, her eyes glistened, as if she couldn't bear such a heavy and anxious atmosphere.

"I..." Taoist Xuan made a bitter face.

He Shen interrupted him directly: "Is there any prescription for the medicine you used to take?"

"Yes, yes." The man hurriedly took it out and placed it in front of Master Xuan.

He Shen reached out to take it, the man was taken aback for a moment, but seeing that Taoist Xuan didn't say anything, he didn't speak again.What's more, the child gave them a hand stove before, and the kindness is still there.

He Shen scanned it briefly: "You can take medicine, but the disease does not just start from the body. Whether the prescription works or not depends on the wife herself."

Master Xuan said it was impossible, but this child said he could take medicine?

The man glanced at Taoist Xuan in surprise, the Taoist still didn't say anything, but he didn't say any more hopeless words.

The man vaguely understood something in his heart, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was impossible.

The person standing in front of him was still a child.

"Master, why not stay for one more day, and you can get the medicine tomorrow." He Shen said again.

His voice was still fresh and tender, but the words he spoke were inexplicably powerful, making it difficult for anyone to doubt or shake his heart.

"Exactly." Taoist Xuan said from the side.

Although the man was full of doubts, he finally had a result. He paid homage to Taoist Xuan and thanked He Shen, and then led the little girl out.

The door closed quickly behind him, too.

As soon as he left, Taoist Master Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "This man is difficult to deal with, but he can't offend him..." After finishing speaking, he stared at He Shen, and said in surprise: "Young master can really prescribe medicine. ?”

"En." He Shen responded in a low voice.

Master Xuan was not angry when he saw that he didn't talk much. After all, he had dealt with He Shen a long time ago, and he knew He Shen's temper well.

On the contrary, with a smile, he took out a box from under the bed, opened it, and found a lot of money inside.

"These are from this month, Young Master." Master Xuan said with a smile.

The money was given without heartache at all.

He Shen took it and put it in a dusty pocket.Still not much to say.

Master Xuan smiled again and said: "Although I have seen the methods of the young master, I still can't help but be surprised. This month, the money earned in the Taoist temple has actually increased. Thanks to the young master who was willing to help me... "

It turns out that in this Taoist temple, there is a Taoist leader who is quite familiar with the art of Qi and Huang, and has a good reputation.

From the beginning to the end, it was not him who was good at this, but He Shen who provided him with the prescription from the beginning.

Originally, He Shen was only for the convenience of giving He Lin medicine and conditioning his body without being suspected, so he used Master Xuan.By the way, he also gave Master Xuan an idea to teach him how to sell medicine.In just over a year, the reputation of Xuantong's Taoist priest has spread all over the country.

Master Xuan couldn't help but bowed to Bai Heshen again as he said: "Thank you so much, my lord..."

He Shen didn't move, he said in a deep voice, "I'm here today to say goodbye to you. I'm going to the capital."
