The Legend of the Long Room in the Red Mansion

Comrade Wang Ziteng, who returned to Beijing to report his duties, did as Ning Shan predicted. He hooked up with King Beijing through Shi Taijun. This time he returned to Beijing under the command of King Beijing. The role of a counselor has indeed played a certain role.Therefore, Wang Ziteng easily believed him, took the paperwork and applied to return to Beijing, and waited for the opportunity to contact the group of gangsters that Ning Shan was talking about, trying to turn over in one fell swoop.

However, whether Wang Ziteng and King Bei Jing wanted to seek refuge with the Supreme Emperor or the present may become an eternal mystery—he had just walked to a place called Shilitun, and the people sent by Ning Shan gave him a pack of medicine. He downed it.

Jia Amnesty rubbed his fists for more than half an hour, until Ning Shan got impatient, and then the small pill of unknown purpose that she personally selected appeared on the stage.

However, the purpose of this small pill has not been discovered yet - I don't know if it is the effect of the medicine, or because Wang Ziteng traveled too fast and his health declined, so he caught a cold that night.The Wang family is not qualified enough to keep a doctor with them, so they can only extend the treatment to the nearest doctor.But there is no famous doctor in this place, and the medicine was misused, and he died after one dose.

After Ning Shan found out, she was silent for a long time. If this person is going to die, he will die no matter what.Then he sighed, and wrote a letter to the old imperial doctor Zheng—reporting that the effect of the medicine was not found.

When Jia She knew it, he beat his chest and stomped his feet, jumped up and down and shouted angrily: "It's cheap for him, it's too cheap for him. I'm still waiting to see his intestines are rotten, his internal organs are all melted, he can't live, he can't die. How can he be so straightforward?" died?"

Jia Lian said cautiously: "Don't say that the medicine is too overbearing? If it weren't for a medicine for cold and cold, even if it was prescribed by mistake, it shouldn't be so fast!"

Ning Shan propped her chin up with one hand, while with the other she flipped through the medical skills that Daiyu asked someone to bring to him.This girl has been ill for a long time and has become a doctor, so she looks around for medical skills when she has nothing to do. Ever since she found out that Qin's death involved overseas secret medicine, she became interested in it.Yingchun begged Ning Shan to find a lot of books on pharmacology and toxicology for Daiyu. Daiyu read them with great interest, and every time she found a possible medicine, she circled it and ordered someone to send it to Ning Shan for review.What Ning Shan is looking at right now is the pile of papers that Daiyu just sorted out, not to mention, it might really come in handy.

Pointing to a section that Daiyu had heavily traced with gamboge, Ning Shan said to Jia She: "Your niece found a good reason for you. Look here, it was written in the former court that A secret medicine that was once very popular in the inner courtyards of various palaces. You don’t need to know the specific pharmacology, just know the nature of the medicine. It is said that it is not poisonous in itself, but it can form a poison when mixed with certain medicinal materials. Very poisonous. Let's wait for Wang Ziteng's body to be transported back to Beijing, and I'll find out by sending an experienced officer from the Ministry of Punishment to test it."

Jia She, who was still depressed and didn't kill Prince Teng himself, suddenly became excited again: "Really? So I chose the right one? The medicine is combined with the wind and cold medicine to kill that bastard?"

Ning Shan nodded perfunctorily: "Looking at the current situation, it should be like this." Jia Amnesty shook his nose happily, threw down his handkerchief and jumped out.

Carefully scratching with the toes, Jia Lian kicked the snot handkerchief to an invisible place under the table, and said happily, "Hehe, this is really retribution."

Ning Shan supported her chin with another hand, turned another page of the book and said, "Retribution is true retribution, but it's hard to say whether Dad chose the right medicine." Jia Lian's face collapsed, although Wang Ziteng's death was quite It's very satisfying, but if he didn't die at their hands, this anger really can't be calmed down. I can't wait for him to come back to life and cheat him again.

Jia Lian said unwillingly: "It's really cheap for him." Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't there one left? Why don't you try that poisonous woman?"

Ning Shan was noncommittal, and continued to flip through the book. I have to say that Daiyu has thoroughly researched pharmacology, and all the things she circled are the most concise and clear, and there are annotations, reading experiences, and drug effect comparisons beside it. It's pretty self-explanatory.Ning Shan copied down a few of them that looked more reliable, and ordered someone to send them to the old imperial doctor Zheng.

The old man was also sighing at home, annoyed that he didn't leave half of the medicine.It wasn't much at all, and the prince poured it all down, but in the end, there was no result, and the man stretched his legs.The old doctor has been obsessed with it for most of his life, and finally had the opportunity to come across this unprecedented secret medicine, but he couldn't solve the secret. These days, he was so troubled that he almost gave up the little bun that was not getting much hair. Bald.

Jia Lian saw that Ning Shan was busy copying some things he couldn't understand, and refused to pay attention to him, and started to scratch the table in embarrassment, while looking for something to say: "Brother, do you want to let me know that Wang Ziteng died?" Does the mother-in-law know? I still stick to the rules you set, and I haven't released any news from the Wang family to her."

Ning Shan buried her head in copying, and said casually, "Just watch these trivial things."

Jia Lian flattered her and said, "Am I afraid of making a mistake? Brother, let me give you an idea."

Ning Shan said: "If you like to run errands for Wang Ziteng, you can tell her." Jia Lian suddenly remembered that Wang Ziteng returned to Beijing alone to narrate, without any family members at all.And even if he did, he didn't have a son, so the funeral would be all piled on him, the niece and son-in-law.

Having figured it out, Jia Lian immediately shook her head like a rattle: "I'll let her know when Wang Ren handles it neatly. I don't want to go to his funeral." After speaking, he hurried out of the door and sent a little girl to call Yingchun over .

Yingchun heard that Jia Lian was looking for her in a pretentious manner, and she didn't know what the big deal was, so she hurriedly dropped all the work at hand and came as soon as possible.When Jia Lian saw her sister arrived, she immediately said: "Your sister-in-law and her uncle are dead, but don't let her know."

Yingchun didn't catch her breath when she heard the dead person, she was startled: "What happened?"

Ning Shan put down the wolf hair, blew on the paper, and put it aside to dry, ready to dry and seal.Seeing the frightened look on Yingchun's face, she greeted her and comforted her: "It's nothing serious, it's just that Wang Ziteng died. I've finished reading this book, and I'm going to return it to Mrs. Lin. You just take it back with me." .”

Yingchun opened her eyes wide and forgot to pick up the book. She covered her mouth and said, "Wang Ziteng is dead? How soon?" The eldest brother's speed is too fast. He only said a few days ago that he would do something. People are gone?

Jia Lian said casually: "It's just a day or two. The elder brother's soldiers are quick and quick to send messages. I'm afraid the people around don't know."

Yingchun took the book and hugged it in her arms. She didn't know whether to put on a smile or express her sorrow. She faltered with embarrassment on her face: "Oh, this is really...too...that..." Should I say yes or no? ?Well, after all, Wang Ziteng is still the uncle of the second sister-in-law and the half-father-in-law of the second brother Lian; it's hard to say, this person is the common enemy of the eldest brother, father, and second brother. Although he has no direct relationship with her, they are A family, of course, should be united.It's just that the death of a person seems to have nothing to do with Universal Celebration at any time, and Yingchun is stuck between countless ethics and common sense.

Ever since Jia Lian found out that the death of his biological mother and elder brother had something to do with the Wang family, he hated him so much that he wanted to eat Wang Ziteng raw. Seeing that his son and sister were not fighting against each other, he was so happy that he couldn't help but said, "Why, are you still sad for him?"

Yingchun hastily explained: "Of course not, I won't feel sad for him, it's just... I heard that someone died, after all... I was a little scared after all."

Ning Shan smiled and said, "It scared you, but it's our fault."

Jia Lian was also a little embarrassing: "Don't take it to heart, I just feel bad for a while." Thinking about it, even though he hated the Wang family, he might not have the guts to do it himself, a little girl in Yingchun heard The dead are understandably frightened.

Yingchun was afraid that her performance just now was not enthusiastic enough and would make her two elder brothers angry with her, so she kept explaining non-stop, and actively expressed curiosity, asking for many details.Jia Lian froze, and vividly described how Wang Ziteng, who was reported by Ning Shan's personal soldiers, was seriously ill, how he delayed the doctor to ask for medicine, how he had a sudden attack, and how painful he was until he died.Ning Shan nodded as she listened, this younger brother was much more eloquent than his own soldiers, and after he retired from the Ministry of Officials, he was able to support his family by telling stories in teahouses.

Yingchun gasped as she listened, cooperating with Jia Lian as if she was in the scene, the expressions on her face were brilliant, and just watching could make up a whole drama.Seeing Yingchun's support, Jia Lian became even more frothy.Seeing that the two brothers and sisters couldn't finish talking for a while, Ning Shan simply gave up the study to them, and went to visit Princess Yinghua by herself.It's rare that this morning, he wants to hear his son turning over in his mother's womb.

Princess Yinghua was sitting in the gazebo in the garden eating snacks. She had never had enough to eat in the cold palace since she was a child, and she became pregnant not long after entering Ning's house.Before she found out that she was pregnant, she had to eat four meals a day, and now it has increased to six meals. Mother-in-law was afraid that she would eat too much, raise the child too big, and it would be difficult to give birth, so she watched her come out every day Go shopping and exercise a lot to avoid dystocia.Princess Yinghua is willing to obey, as long as she doesn't make a fool of herself, she is willing to do whatever others say.

Sister Feng was also on the side. She was dragged by Princess Yinghua and asked a lot of production details. She was known as a spicy girl, but she was also blushed when asked by a princess who was more restrained than her.However, the more you talk, the more right-tempered you get. Sister Feng has always disliked those ladies who are humming and chirping. Extremely detailed.

Nanny Hua was at the side trying desperately to memorize the details. Her skill of helping the first and empress deliver babies has been put aside for decades, and she has long been unfamiliar with it.In the past, Nanny Hua had become a confidant in the palace, but the princess did not lay eggs, so she had no experience.The two old mothers looked anxiously at Sister Feng, who was less than half their age, and humbly asked for advice.Sister Feng was unavoidably complacent, the more she talked, the more her eyebrows became more and more joyful, and even the volume gradually forgot to control and became louder.

Ning Shan had just walked to the small bamboo bridge over the water when she heard a woman in the pavilion chattering over there discussing which position was comfortable to lie down during childbirth, and touched the tip of her nose in embarrassment, she just felt uncomfortable when she passed by.She wanted to turn around in a hurry, but Daiyu led sister Qiao, and Xichun was jumping up and down the bridge.Ning Shan was caught in the middle of two groups of women, big and small, very depressed.

Sister Qiao yelled "Mother" clearly and crisply, and Ning Shan had nowhere to hide. Except for Princess Yinghua, Sister Feng, Mother Yue, and Mother Hua all blushed for a while, but the person involved was still calm endlessly.Seeing Sister Feng's strange expression, Daiyu instinctively felt that something was wrong, pulled Qiao up and wanted to back away, but she didn't realize that there was Xichun behind her, and the two of them collided and almost fell into the water.

Surrounded by thousands of troops, Ning Shan didn't want to run as much as she did today. Unfortunately, this geographical location is not as good as being surrounded by thousands of troops. Except for a small bridge, there is water on the left and right, so there is nowhere to run.Although he is good at swimming, what's the point of jumping into the river at his own home and having a wild swim?

In the end, it was Sister Feng who covered her face and ran away from the other side to solve the problem. Nanny Hua cleaned up her expression, pretended to be ignorant, poured tea and snacks for Ning Shan, and greeted Ning Shan warmly. sit together.Mother Yue was cautious, held her breath, lowered her head, walked around Ning Shan, walked quickly to the opposite side, picked up Sister Qiao, and walked away.Daiyu pulled Xichun, quickly followed, and the scene was cleared in an instant.

Ning Shan walked up to Princess Yinghua with a gloomy expression, looked at her stomach, and said without words: "Cough, I've been a little busy these days, so I didn't bother to ask, did you invite the imperial physician? Did you say anything?" Cough...well, when...? Huh?"

Princess Yinghua reluctantly put down the half-eaten rose and lotus cake, rinsed her mouth with the peony and white fungus soup, and then said softly: "I can't trust the imperial doctor next to me, but it happens that the old imperial doctor Zheng is also busy these days I didn't ask him to come here. But he handed over the greeting card to the princess' mansion yesterday, and Xue Cairen sent a message, saying that he came to ask when it's time for Ping'an's pulse."

Ning Shan said: "Why don't you come today, it happens that I have to send someone to deliver a letter to him, it's cheaper to just confess in person."

When Nanny Hua heard this, she got up immediately and said: "Lao Shen, I will send someone to invite old imperial doctor Zheng." After saying that, she left the pavilion for Ning Shan and Princess Yinghua to be alone.

Ning Shan got up and moved to a position, sat beside Princess Yinghua, reached over, touched her raised belly lightly, and asked with a smile, "Is he still good?"

Princess Yinghua also stretched out her hand to cover Ning Shan's big hand, a faint happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said: "He has always been very good!" This is true, Sister Feng described the vomiting and pantothenic acid during pregnancy, Princess Yinghua has never encountered any problems such as inability to eat, abdominal pain, swollen legs and feet. The jealous Feng sister clicked her tongue and complained why she had never met such a good child.

Thinking of the embarrassment when she came here just now, Ning Shan couldn't help saying: "In the future, if you talk to Lian'er's family, you should choose a place. Don't talk about these things that are too private outside, not to mention that there are several people in our family. Little girl, it would be embarrassing for me or my father or my second brother to hear it, right?"

Princess Yinghua opened her watery eyes and asked seriously, "Why are you embarrassed?"

"Uh..." Ning Shan couldn't explain it. This question itself is very embarrassing, okay? She had no choice but to change the subject and said, "You go back and ask your mother, let's talk about the child. Later, when the old imperial doctor Zheng came over You have to ask these questions, why don't you tell me first, apart from a good appetite, what other changes have occurred?" Counting the days, it's almost the time of delivery, although Princess Yinghua's pregnancy has always been smooth, but at this moment , there is still something to worry about.Moreover, in order to deal with the Supreme Emperor, it was always declared that Princess Yinghua's pregnancy was unstable, and all kinds of dangerous situations were fabricated. It is estimated that during the delivery, she had to pretend to be tossing and tossing to hide it.

Princess Yinghua said: "Tell me first, my father is still thinking about this child?" Princess Yinghua doesn't know how to deal with people because she didn't see many people in her first 20 years of life. But that doesn't mean she's stupid, she knows better than anyone else what should be seen clearly.Ever since Sister Feng said she let Princess Yinghua know that the Supreme Emperor wanted to adopt her child, Ning Shan put a ban on the whole family and was not allowed to mention it again. If the princess wanted to ask, she could only say that it was resolved.Unexpectedly, the princess never asked anyone else, but asked Ning Shan to give an explanation in person today.

Ning Shan also knew that since Princess Yinghua had spoken, it would be perfunctory, so she could only seriously reply: "Of course he still wants to, but I will definitely not give it."

Princess Yinghua was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Tell me, will my father raise this child well?" Growing up, she had heard all that the imperial power was supreme. In the end, she was still worried that Ning Shan would not be able to withstand the persecution of the Supreme Emperor.

Ning Shan smiled and said, "You don't believe my words?"

Princess Yinghua murmured: "I want to believe it, but in the end..." After all, Princess Yinghua still can't say that you are more important than your child. Besides, she can't really give up her child.

Ning Shan gently hugged Princess Yinghua over, being careful not to touch her abdomen, and let her rest her head on her shoulders, with a slight smile in her tone, but sonorously said: "Just don't worry, I've decided No one can stop the matter. Our children are naturally brought up by us, whoever wants to snatch them, I will let him have nothing."

Princess Yinghua smiled slightly, stopped talking, closed her eyes and lay in Ning Shan's arms, the couple enjoyed the rare warm and peaceful afternoon together.

On the shore, Jia Amnesty took the old imperial doctor Zheng to hide behind the water plants, and he was smiling like a thief, and kept muttering: "I will hold you two in three years, and three in five years. Master, I can also hug left and right in the future." Hugging grandpa."

The old imperial doctor Zheng was full of contempt: "Not to mention whether the child after birth will call you Grandpa, even if you do, you will have to wait a full year before hearing it."

Jia She said angrily: "Don't allow my grandson to be smart? Turn over, sit, sit, roll, and crawl. They are all ordinary kids. Master, my grandson inherits the most outstanding bloodline, at least twice as fast as ordinary kids." .”

The old imperial doctor Zheng continued to snort: "General Ning's achievements are not only due to the excellent blood of the late wife, but also because of the good education of the old lady of the Ning family. Look at the virtues taught by your Jia family." It is true that more than a boatload of people were overturned, but what they said is true. From Jia Jing down, the Jia family has never had anyone who has earned fame by himself.The men of the Jia family, headed by Jia She, are most famous for their beauty like a woman, and this beauty is still declining. Jia Zheng is not as good as Jia She, Jia Lian is not as good as Jia Zhen, and Jia Cong and Jia Huan are even worse. It is not comparable to their direct brothers.In addition to Jia Qiang's extraordinary talent, turning out to break the peak of beauty, it is really not as good as the next generation.

Jia Amnesty was a little sluggish from the blow, and she was still holding on the hardest: "I don't believe it, I, Shan'er, is so good, so I have nothing to do with me."

The old imperial doctor Zheng thought about it carefully, and said with relief: "Speaking of which, General Ning's appearance is really good, not to mention that he is extraordinary and refined among the generals, but he is outstanding compared with previous Tanhua Langs. I vaguely remember When Mrs. Zun was not married, I went to Ning's house to meet her a few times, and to be honest, Mrs. Zun was not as good-looking as you when she was a little girl."

Jia Amnesty was completely paralyzed, and held his face in the water to take a photo, wanting to cry without tears: "Then tell me, can I still pass this face on to my grandson?"

The old imperial doctor Zheng patted him on the shoulder without any sincerity, and said, "General Ning and Princess Yinghua are both good-looking, so don't worry, your grandson's embroidered pillow will still be of the 'Hui Wen' level."
