If the Dongchuang incident hadn't happened later, the emperor would have wanted to deal with the Chen family. I don’t know how many people this little lunatic is going to harm.

Thinking of the old news she heard from others, she had always stayed away from this little lunatic in her previous life.

It's just that this time since his rebirth, the original pace seems to have been broken.

This little lunatic actually took the initiative to get involved.

"There's nothing serious about my sister's health. It's just that she took too much soothing incense. Just use some Qingming Decoction and it'll be fine." Zhao Lang stopped his careless attitude and actually looked at her as if he was seeing a doctor.

After the consultation, Zhao Lang didn't bother. He just smiled and said, "I know my sister can't trust me, so I'll ask the little medicine boy to get the Qingming Decoction for my sister."

He let go of Jiang Nianjiao's hand. Then he blinked and said, "Sister, the hospital is very busy today, so I'll go and get busy first."

After the words fell, Zhao Lang quickly disappeared from the door.

Looking at his back coming and going like the wind, Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Could it be that as the plot changes, will human nature also be changed?

She remembered that Zhao Lang was a master who only killed people but not saved them in his previous life, but now he actually came to the Imperial Hospital to study medicine.

Whether it was out of curiosity or some other motive, Jiang Nianjiao followed Zhao Lang by accident not long after Zhao Lang left.

After Zhao Lang left here, he did not stay on duty in the palace, but went straight outside the palace. Outside the palace, there were several young palace servants who had already gathered behind the old tusk tree from last time.

They were looking around the inner room, but when they saw Zhao Lang coming out, their eyes suddenly brightened.

A bold palace official only waved to Zhao Lang and said, "A Lang, we are here!"

Zhao Lang walked towards the palace people with a smile on his face.

After arriving under the tree, Zhao Lang was quickly surrounded by the palace people.

Although he was a prince, because of his tendency to get close to others, no one in the palace was really afraid of him.

Zhao Lang, who was surrounded by a group of young palace ladies, was obviously enjoying the feeling of being admired by the stars.

While they were laughing and joking, Zhao Lang took out a few small boxes that looked like rouge makeup boxes as he did last time.

When the palace people saw the rouge box, they looked at Zhao Lang as if they were looking at a large piece of shiny gold.

Zhao Lang said with a smile, "Today's share is not enough. If sisters want it, they have to grab it from me. Whoever grabs it belongs to whom."

As soon as he finished speaking, the palace people immediately started snatching away the rouge box in his hand.

Because she didn't grab the box, the beautiful little palace maid couldn't help complaining to Zhao Lang, "You, you will tease us all day long. You just want to see us embarrassed. I won't come next time."

After saying this, the little palace maid stamped her feet and prepared to leave.

Zhao Lang, however, held the palace man's wrist with a smile and said, "Sister Huansha, don't be angry."

As he spoke, Zhao Lang seemed to be conjuring another box of rouge from his hand.

"I specially left this box for my sister." Zhao Lang coaxed with a smile.

When the palace servant named Huansha saw the rouge box, he was coaxed by Zhao Lang into losing his temper with just a few words.

Even without Zhao Lang's request, the palace man only took the initiative to press a kiss on Zhao Lang's left cheek.

When the other palace servants who didn't grab it saw this, they couldn't agree to it, so they only made trouble with Zhao Lang again.

It wasn't until they were sure that Zhao Lang's rouge box was indeed not enough that they left in frustration.

But everyone has left, and the little palace maid who stayed until the end to give Zhao Lang a sachet last time still didn't leave this time.

Zhao Lang obviously also recognized the little palace maid. He was a little surprised and said, "Why haven't you left yet? I really don't have it in my hand."

When the little palace maid heard this, her face turned red. She pretended to hide it by twirling her hair behind her ears, and then said as if she was risking her life, "Has His Majesty the Ninth Prince seen my note?"

Zhao Lang looked confused, "What note?"

The little palace maid lowered her head and kicked the pebbles with her toes, making a sound like a mosquito: "I left you a small note in the sachet last time. Didn't you read it?"

After the little palace maid finished speaking, Zhao Lang's face was obviously confused for a moment.

The little palace maid was telling the truth.

But Zhao Lang couldn't tell the truth because of his temper. He smiled and said, "Of course I saw it, but what does it mean that my sister left me such a note?"

It was obvious that Zhao Lang was just lying, but the little palace maid did not doubt him. Now that she heard him ask this question, she thought he was asking knowingly.

The little palace maid lowered her head lower and hesitated for a long time before she softly said, "I like you."

As soon as the words fell, the little palace maid's lips were captured by Zhao Lang.

He put his arms around the little palace maid's waist and pressed it against the old catalpa tree. In the gap, he smiled softly and said, "I like my sister too."

When Jiang Nianjiao saw this, she just thought to herself, as expected, the situation is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.

It seems that Zhao Lang just came to Tai Hospital to study medicine, and his real purpose is probably just to fool around.

After all, there were only a few devoted princes in the harem. Even though Zhao Nianze was thinking about Su Zhirou, after he ascended the throne, Zhao Nianze was still in the third palace and sixth courtyard.

However, Jiang Nianjiao was a little surprised that Zhao Lang, under Zhao Yanzhen's pure and merciless teachings, still behaved like this.

Jiang Nianjiao naturally had no interest in continuing to watch the two of them mess around.

Just looking at the recurring rouge box and thinking about Zhao Lang's past methods of using poison and poison, Jiang Nianjiao also had a strange feeling in his heart.

Naturally, she would not think that what Zhao Lang gave those palace people was just ordinary rouge.

So after returning to the inner hall, she waved to Cui Qiao beside her. After Cui Qiao came closer, she whispered a few words to Cui Qiao.

After Cui Qiao received Jiang Nianjiao's instructions, she didn't say much and quickly jumped outside the Imperial Hospital.

And Jiang Nianjiao also turned around and retreated to a secluded inner room.

The inner room was very dim because there were long bookshelves filled with various medicinal classics.

I don't think anyone will come here at this time.

Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao just randomly picked out a medical book to pass the time.

Fortunately, Cuiqiao didn't keep Jiang Nianjiao waiting for too long.

After Jiang Nianjiao turned over a few pages of the book.

There was a rustling sound from the only window in the study.

When Jiang Nianjiao opened the window,

Outside the window, Cui Qiao was holding a palace maid with one hand. Although she was struggling, she could only make a whining sound because her mouth was blocked by a piece of cloth.

That palace maid was one of the palace servants who just snatched the rouge box from Zhao Lang.

Jiang Nianjiao took a step back, allowing Cui Qiao to push the palace maid into the room.

The palace maid was still about to struggle, but Cui Qiao sternly warned, "Be honest!"

The palace maid shrank, but she didn't dare to move randomly anymore.

Then Cuiqiao just pushed the palace maid into the room and turned around herself.

The palace maid obviously did not know Jiang Nianjiao, but she saw that Jiang Nianjiao was not dressed like a palace maid, and Cui Qiao, who kidnapped her, was obviously ordered by Jiang Nianjiao, so the palace lady only thought that Jiang Nianjiao was the master of which palace, and she faced Jiang Nianjiao kowtowed, as if hoping that Jiang Nianjiao would let her go.

Jiang Nianjiao didn't intend to embarrass her. She just whispered, "I'm just asking you a few words. It won't hurt your life. As long as you cooperate well, I will naturally let you go."

After listening to Jiang Nianjiao's words, the palace maid was naturally very cooperative.

Then Jiang Nianjiao signaled Cui Qiao to take out the strip of cloth blocking the palace lady's lips.

The palace man seemed to understand. Although her face was still panic-stricken, after taking out the strip of cloth, she actually didn't resist.

Jiang Nianjiao didn't bother to beat around the bush and asked directly, "What did you ask the Ninth Prince for just now?"

Seeing that this was what Jiang Nianjiao asked, the palace maid was obviously relieved.

"If I tell you my little master, this is a box of rouge."

But obviously no one believed her.

The palace maid took out the rouge she had just received from Zhao Lang from her sleeve, "If you don't believe it, you can see it for yourself."

The white porcelain box was sparkling like snow, with only a branch of bright red cinnabar plum painted on the lid.

When I opened the lid of the box, a faint orchid fragrance came out, and the red paste in the box really looked like rouge.

But this thing seems to be more than just rouge.

Jiang Nianjiao took out a little rouge and applied it on the back of her hand.

Then with a slight swipe, the red paste left a red circle on the back of the hand.

It is indeed the effect of rouge, and compared to other brands, Zhao Lang's rouge is obviously more delicate to the touch and the effect is more natural. The blush seems to be a real blush on a girl's cheeks.

It's just that it's unknown whether this rouge contains some other ingredients.

Therefore, after this, Jiang Nianjiao did not intend to return the rouge to the little palace maid. Instead, she only planned to put the rouge into her sleeve.

The little palace maid suddenly became unhappy and said, "My lord! You have to return this rouge box to me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Cui Qiao glared at her.

Then her voice also dropped.

"My lord, this rouge is not worth much. If you really want it, I can ask His Highness Ninth Prince for a box for you."

Seeing that Jiang Nianjiao remained silent, she added, "Why don't I give you something else in exchange? I have other things here, all of which were rewarded by His Highness the Ninth Prince."

When Jiang Nianjiao heard that Zhao Lang actually gave other things to the palace servant, she couldn't help but become more curious, "What else do you have?"

The little palace maid took out another small porcelain bottle from her arms.

The porcelain bottle contains some white powder.

She took the porcelain bottle and asked, "What is this?"

The little palace maid whispered, "His Royal Highness Ninth said this is called obedient powder. It is said that as long as you sprinkle it in front of people's eyes, the person who is sprinkled with obedient powder will be at the mercy of others."

After hearing what the little palace maid said, Jiang Nianjiao raised her eyebrows. This thing didn't sound like a serious thing.

Zhao Lang really didn't learn anything good at a young age.

She threw the bottle to Cui Qiao aside and motioned for her to put it away.

When the palace man saw that Jiang Nianjiao had accepted his things, he thought he could successfully get his rouge box back.

Jiang Nianjiao didn't want to say anything, but continued to ask, "Do you have anything else?"

When the palace people heard this, they immediately frowned, knowing that they had met their match.

She took out another small cyan porcelain bottle and took the initiative to introduce, "This is the truth pill. People who take this pill can answer all questions within the time of one stick of incense, and they will never tell lies."
