"No, I came to Yuzhen Temple this time to harass the eldest princess, not because of His Majesty's orders, but because of the entrustment of the little princess."
Every year at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Xuanzong summoned her to the palace to attend the banquet.
To Princess Yuzhen's surprise, Li Linhuai didn't come here to convey the order this time?
Princess Yuzhen looked a little surprised, and Li Linhuai presented him with a stack of story books he was holding: "It's the little princess who is here to help me and give her some funny story books to relieve her boredom."
After her junior sister entered the palace, she had little contact with Yu Zhen Guan.
Her imperial niece, whom she had never met before, suddenly sent her a funny storybook to relieve her boredom?
Princess Yuzhen couldn't guess Li Sixu's intention for a while. After Li Linhuai said goodbye and left, she stepped into the waterside pavilion holding a stack of story books.
Wang Wei struck out a string of tail notes on the strings: "What is the eldest princess holding in her hand?"
"Talkbook!"
Princess Yuzhen explained his doubts: "It was sent by my imperial niece, who has become famous in the capital recently. It is said to be the story of Master Xuanzang going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures during the reign of Emperor Taizong."
Wang Wei was still confused: "The gentleman who left just now seems to be a close minister of your majesty. I have seen him in the palace."
"This is what puzzles me. The person who brought the message book to Yuzhen Temple for my niece is Li Linhuai, the left-wing servant next to the emperor."
"Mojie doesn't know that the imperial guard next to the emperor is actually the son of General Zuo Yulin Li Kailuo. I have some connection with his mother, and I have watched him grow up since childhood."
"He has always been young and mature, and he is serious about words, but he is willing to run errands for my imperial niece. He talks about the little princess and shuts up about the little princess. He can't do anything without my imperial niece."
Princess Yuzhen asked Wang Wei with great interest: "As Taile Cheng often attends banquets in the palace, does Mojie know about the niece of the emperor in this palace?"
I know that Princess Yuzhen is talking about the tenth princess Li Sixu, the daughter of Yu Jieyu.
Wang Wei reported back: "I saw her once at the lotus appreciation banquet. The little princess once played the flute to accompany Princess Yongmu on behalf of the Lord of Ji'an County."
"The princess is so young, but she plays a mulberry picking song with great spirit."
Seeing that Wang Wei, who was very good at music, also praised Li Sixu a lot. Princess Yuzhen believed what Li Linhuai said, and Li Sixu's piano skills were better than those of others.
At such a young age, can one develop vaccination to prevent smallpox?
It was said that the reason why the richest man in the capital was able to make crystal clear glazed wares was because of her formula. Jiang Jiao, the Duke of Chu, raised questions about this in the court.
As a result, Jiang Shidu, who never participated in political affairs and only focused on building canals, hit back hard. Even the important minister Yao also spoke for her.
Therefore, her imperial niece has become famous in the capital recently!
"This imperial niece of mine is quite interesting."
Princess Yuzhen put a stack of story books on the desk: "She said she sent them to me to amuse me and relieve my boredom. So Mojie, please go through these story books with me!"
Li Linhuai told her to focus on developing malaria drugs and leave the rest to him.
Li Sixu plunged into the newly built secret room in Taiyuan Hospital.
Every time she returned to Linglong Residence from Taiyuan Hospital, it was already time to light the lamp. She would often go out dressed neatly and look disheveled when she came back.
This made Yu Jieyu, who sat waiting for her on the steps at the entrance of Jiuxuan Palace every night, extremely distressed.
Knowing that she was working hard to develop malaria medicine, Yu Jieyu couldn't say anything, so she could only ask Aunt Wei to take better care of her in terms of food and clothing.
As much as Yu Jieyu and others felt sorry for her, there were also Sun Yizheng and Wang Ziqing.
"Look how thin your junior sister has become? The little girl spends the whole day huddled in a secret room wearing a white robe and a strange hat on her head. Even her bun is messed up."
Wang Ziqing took the concoction extracted from the secret room and wanted to leave the palace to go to the Imperial Medical Office, but Dr. Sun just kept talking about it.
"The little girl has eaten so many snacks you brought to the palace, but she still won't gain weight."
Doctor Sun had a look of disgust on his face: "Don't just take it for granted. It's such a stupid piece of wood. I'll be passing by the market when I go to the palace tomorrow. Remember to buy a comb for the palace, and some nice hairpins or something."
"Why buy a flower hairpin?"
Wang Ziqing was confused: "Junior sister has no shortage of hairpins and headdresses. The Empress has rewarded her a lot. The Fish Empress is favored, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs often sends rewards to Linglong Residence."
"The Concubine Xian and the Concubine also often give hairpins as headdresses to Junior Sisters."
Wang Ziqing arranged the porcelain bottles containing the concoction and put soft silk cloth between the bottles to prevent the porcelain bottles containing the concoction from being cracked by the bumps on the road while leaving the palace in a carriage.
He spoke to Dr. Sun: "Junior sister, the most important thing she needs is a hairpin for her hair."
He only focused on working hard, helping his junior sister to develop malaria concoction.
After hearing what he said, Dr. Sun fell down in anger: "How can I say that you are a stupid piece of wood if you are not a teacher?"
"What the ladies give you, that's what the ladies want."
Dr. Sun looked like he hated iron and said, "You give the little girl a hairpin and flowers in her hair. That's what you should have as a senior brother."
Doctor Sun was clutching his chest, feeling about to have a heart attack from his disciple's anger.
Wang Ziqing finished preparing the concoction to ensure that it would not be damaged by the bumps of the carriage when leaving the palace, and then finally came to his senses and realized what the old man in front of him was talking about.
As a senior brother, is this appropriate?
According to the rules in Chang'an City, only the woman you like should be given a hairpin and flowers as a token of love.
She and her junior sister were busy developing concoction to treat malaria. What on earth was the old man thinking about with Doctor Du all day long?
Wang Ziqing's face turned red and her ears flushed: "Master, are you asking your disciple to give junior sister a hairpin?"
"nonsense!"
Doctor Sun rolled his eyes and reprimanded him: "If you don't learn from me as a senior brother, do you want me, an old man, to comb and tie a little girl's hair?"
Wang Ziqing didn't understand, so Dr. Sun was so angry that he kicked him out of the Taiyuan Hospital.
As soon as he left, Dr. Du, who had had enough of the excitement, burst into laughter: "Are you a little too hasty?"
"What's the hurry!"
Dr. Sun Zhengshen muttered: "I went to the Xingqing Palace yesterday to give the emperor a safe pulse, and happened to see the emperor summoning Li Kailuo to discuss the defense of the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet."
"I now know that Li Kailuo recommended the Li family boy in front of the emperor and secretly protected my young disciple's safety."
"It's not enough for the little girl to have a female guard sent by the Li family to Linglong Residence. Li Kailuo actually recommended himself to let his boy secretly follow me as my disciple."
"What kind of peace of mind is this? What kind of peace of mind is this?"
Dr. Sun was saying anxiously: "Strike first to gain advantage, then strike later and suffer disaster. That fool Zi Qing only knows how to help his junior sister with her work. How can the Li family father and son be cunning?"
"I was the one who took the little girl as my disciple first. I was the one who took a fancy to the little girl first. How can someone who comes after me take over?"
Dr. Sun was furious: "Tell me, tell me, why doesn't Zi Qing's lump of elm wood heal?"
