Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 208 The women who covet the prince
Taking a deep breath, Yu Qinghuan returned to Zhizhiju. After applying the medicine to himself, he dug out all the ancient medical books he brought from Jingzhou to see if there were any records on the detoxification of Sun Tao's body.

Some ancient manuscripts still used the fonts of previous dynasties. Yu Qinghuan had learned some, but she didn't dare to guess and read blindly, for fear of causing big problems if she read wrongly, so she had to flip through the book and annotate it while reading. It takes an hour to read one chapter.

Yu Qinghuan felt cheap. What she was doing now was like Chang Sun Tao stabbing her, but she covered the wound and went to help Chang Sun Tao cook dinner.

While hating herself for not living up to expectations, Yu Qinghuan comforted herself that this was to repay Chang Sun Tao's kindness. She gritted her teeth and took it extremely seriously. If she could show this enthusiasm when she was studying medicine, she would be awarded the title of "Miracle Doctor" in Jingzhou. , it fell on her long ago when her grandfather was still alive.

Wei Shu's beating did not cause any disturbance. On August [-]th, red silk and lanterns were hung up in the house early. Yu Qinghuan read medical books for several days in a row, and his spirit was a little sluggish. He did not leave the bed for three days at a time. climb up.

Generally, the children of noble families will choose to hold tea parties on this day. They say they are meeting friends through literature, but in fact they are engaged in blind dates.

When he was in Jingzhou, Yu Qinghuan was still a little kid. The so-called tea party was just hiding by the river and counting the stars with pomegranates and persimmons in his arms. He had no experience of meeting talented people and beautiful ladies. After arriving in the capital, several ladies from the Yu family held this kind of party. Things never concern her, she doesn't have any close friends, and has never participated, so she is not in a hurry today.

Xiao Qian came in holding a red light without a pattern and urged Yu Qinghuan to get up quickly: "Miss, today is a big day, please get up quickly!"

"How many days are left until your haircut ceremony? What kind of big day can today be?" Yu Qinghuan muttered a few words, wrapped herself in a quilt, turned over and fell asleep again.

Xiao Qian had no choice but to put the lantern aside, reach out to lift Yu Qinghuan's quilt, then hold her shoulders, shaking them: "Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you and the prince are going to the palace to celebrate, so our house will To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in advance tonight, you have to get up quickly and prepare things for the evening!"

Yu Qinghuan said in a daze: "Are there so many slaves in the house just for viewing? I have to prepare things myself."

Xiao Qian hated the irony and said: "There is a custom of exchanging gifts during the Mid-Autumn Festival in the capital. Aren't you going to make something for the prince yourself? Put all your love, affection, and desire for the prince into the gift and give it to him. To the prince?"

"I have no love or affection for the prince, only whether I am happy or unhappy. I am happy to sleep now and not do anything else! Don't bother me!" Yu Qinghuan broke away from Xiao Qian's hand, fell on the bed, and pulled up the quilt to cover her head. live.

Xiao Qian gritted her teeth: "Miss, Bai Yichu, the youngest daughter of Dingbei Hou Mansion, came back from the frontier fortress, and brought the local specialties from the frontier fortress to the prince. There are servants in the house who are talking about it, saying that Miss Dingbai has taken a liking to our prince, and wants to If you come to be the concubine for the prince, are you just going to watch the prince being seduced by a vixen?"

"Bai Yichu?!" Yu Qinghuan immediately stood up from the bed, "But Mrs. Dingbeihou is almost 40 years old. Bai Yichu, the legitimate daughter born to Lao Bengshengzhu, has a father with a lot of soldiers and a noble family. Mother, a grandmother who was the eldest princess’s tutor, and seven brothers with outstanding martial arts, that Bai Yichu? But..."

Xiao Qian interrupted her: "Not only that, she is also the most beautiful woman in the Qin Dynasty, and she is also the most talented woman in the capital. Even the former eldest lady Yu Qingwan cannot compare with her. The servants all said that if she marries into Prince Qi's palace, Miss, you You can only serve as a servant! Miss, please wake up! Miss Bai is not only better than you in talent and beauty, but also has a nobler background than you. If you don’t work hard to capture the prince’s heart, you will be miserable. Finish the rest of your life!"

"No big or small," Xiao Qian's words completely woke Yu Qinghuan up. "Even if my baby looks like a toad, my own mother still praises her beauty. I am your young lady, and I can't even say a nice word." Tell me, Xiaoqian, you are not rebelling, are you?" Xiaoqian quickly pulled Yu Qinghuan to sit down in front of the dressing table, quickly washed Yu Qinghuan, and handed Yu Qinghuan a bowl of warm water. of millet porridge, then placed Yu Qinghuan in front of the desk, and finally handed her the unpatterned octagonal palace lantern.

"Miss, if you give the prince a lantern and let him hang it under the eaves, it will not only suit the occasion, but also the prince can see it when he comes in and out. As soon as he sees the lantern, the prince will definitely think of you. Wouldn't this enhance the relationship between you and the prince? Have you lost your feelings? Lu Yi once said that all the ladies in the palace are trying their best to please His Majesty. Although you are the only one in our mansion now, it does not mean that there will be no concubines in the future. When you are a concubine, you should firmly hold the prince's heart and not let the charming girl later take over the throne!"

Yu Qinghuan glanced at Xiao Qian in surprise and asked, "How long have you been preparing these words? Who taught you?"

Xiao Qian covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I can't hide anything from the young lady. These words were naturally taught by Lu Yi. She was afraid that you would be angry, so she didn't dare to tell you in person."

"I'm just asking, why are you suddenly so fluent?" Yu Qinghuan stretched hard, "I haven't seen you take any action after talking so much, and I haven't prepared any paint."

Xiao Qian rushed back and forth, and in about a quarter of an hour, she had the materials ready.

Yu Qinghuan chose a piece of sheep hair and said casually: "Ask Xue Wei to go to the accounting office to pay the money, order a batch of sharp scissors, and give one to each of the servants in Prince Qi's palace. If anyone can't control their mouth in the future, Just cut off your tongue yourself, otherwise if I hear even a few words, what I cut will turn into a head!"

"Yes, I will definitely fulfill my mission." Xiao Qian responded crisply and walked out eagerly.

Yu Qinghuan looked at Xiao Qian's back, the smile quietly disappeared on her face.

Is that Bai Yichu?Yu Qinghuan is no stranger to this. Wasn't Chang Sun Tao's wife in his previous life the most beautiful woman in the world, Bai Yichu?

Bai Yichu was born into a noble family and was the legitimate daughter of Marquis Dingbei.

The old Marquis had three sons in total. Bai Yichu's father, now the Marquis of Dingbei, had both direct and eldest sons. He also inherited the title of Marquis of Dingbei and all the honors of the Marquis of Dingbei's family.

Although the descendants of Dingbeihou's family are prosperous, the one who is most favored is not Bai Yichu's brothers, let alone her cousins, but her, the youngest daughter of Dingbeihou.

Xiao Qian was right. Compared with Bai Yichu, even Princess Zhenli was a little inferior, let alone a humble concubine like her.
