oh.
Ning Wuyan smiled clearly, took out a pack of cigarettes that he had not finished smoking last night from his chest, took out one, and stretched out his hand towards Yunfei.
Yun Fei said with rare worry: "Young Master will need to take medicine soon. Is it okay to smoke at this time?"
"I'll light it and smell it. It won't be a problem."
Ning Wuyang glanced at Hua Yi's back as he walked away slowly.
When the cigarette was lit, he blew a few strong breaths in the direction Hua Yi left.
The faint smell of tobacco filled the air, successfully making Hua Yi stop less than two steps away from the courtyard door.
"What was this set on fire?"
Hua Yi sniffed it carefully, perked up, turned around and walked quickly to Ning Wuyan.
He saw that between the index and middle fingers of Ning Wuyan's right hand, there was a slender object that he had never seen or heard before. The thick end was burning with sparks, emitting wisps of gray smoke.
After smelling that smoke, one's mind becomes clear and the whole person becomes more energetic. It also dispels the fatigue that surged from the bottom of his heart during the game just now!
From Ji Jin's words, Ning Wuyang learned that Hua Yi was staying at Hanshan Temple. Looking at Hua Yi as a person, he didn't like to gossip and join in the fun. He probably didn't know what a cigarette was.
Coupled with the fact that Hua Yi is proficient in medical skills, he thinks this is a good way to retain people.
Ning Wuchang closed his eyes and fell asleep, thinking silently.
Waiting patiently for Hua Yi to take the initiative to ask.
Hua Yi naturally saw what he was thinking. He was silent for a moment and then spoke again: "Ning Shixian, what is this?"
"cigarette……"
Ning Wuhao will answer all questions.
As long as Hua Yi takes the initiative, he will tell Hua Yi everything about what cigarettes are, where they come from, and where they are used.
As for the increase in taxes, when it was originally concealed, it was to dig a hole for Zhou An. At this time, in order for Hua Yi to study it carefully, he did not hide it, but deliberately lowered his voice.
"Master Hua, this is a secret of the imperial court and cannot be disclosed to outsiders for the time being, in case someone robs us along the way like the day before yesterday and almost ruined our national destiny in Daxing."
It's not that Ning Wuhuang is petty, but he still has to hold the shit basin after death.
But for Hua Yi to be able to speak in front of the old emperor, he must have a unified voice.
"The national destiny of great prosperity..."
Huayi was used to seeing big winds and waves in the capital, and he had calculated all the changes in his life. At this time, he heard that the appearance of cigarettes would change the national destiny of Daxing. Although he thought it was a bit absurd in his heart, if what Ning Wuhuang said was true, it would indeed affect Daxing. national destiny.
He always remembered that when he was just starting out, he had divined a hexagram for the great rejuvenation of the country. The result at that time shocked him, and he had to ask his master to divine another hexagram, but the result was still the same.
It has been 220 years since Daxing Guozuo. It is a time of great changes. When the throne changes, Daxing will begin to decline and fall apart.
Among the hexagrams he divined, there was no mention of increasing taxes.
"Did Master and I make a mistake?"
Miscalculate?
Ning Wuyan saw Hua Yi muttering something in his mouth and his eyes became confused. He hurriedly took out another cigarette and handed it to Hua Yi.
"Master Hua, if you have something you can't think of, you can try a cigarette."
"it's useless."
Hua Yi said this, but his body took the cigarette honestly.
Anyway, we have to keep an eye on Ning Wuyan's recovery from his injuries. If he doesn't go to Hanshan Temple today, it doesn't matter if he goes tomorrow.
After Ning Wuyan lit it with his own hands, the rich smell of tobacco that surrounded him was better than any incense he had ever smelled in the world, and his mind became clearer.
No matter what happens to Daxing, what he can do is to make the most of the tobacco that can be used for medicine.
It can also be regarded as benefiting the people and accumulating negative virtues.
"Can Ning Shixian give me more cigarettes?"
"I rolled the cigarettes with great difficulty, so I can't give it to you."
Ning Wuyan paused for a moment, then pointed to the northeast without waiting for Hua Yi to change his mind.
"There are also dried tobacco in the warehouse, eighteen live tobacco plants planted in flower pots, and two flower pots with some seeds. Master Hua wants to see or use them, you can do whatever you want."
Hua Yi raised his white eyebrows slightly and looked at Ning Wuyan, who was so generous, suspiciously.
Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.
"Ning Shixian, I use tobacco at will, what are your requirements?"
This guy is not a fuel saver.
Without asking clearly, he would rather wait until news of tobacco cultivation came from the capital, and then wait for the emperor to ask him to identify the properties of the medicine.
"Request? Master Hua is willing to test the medicine for the country and the people. This is a great merit. If I make a request again, am I still a human being? Not only can I not make requests, Master Hua is tired, tired, sleepy and hungry, so he can do whatever he wants. Tell the servants on Zhuangzi that we are with the master."
Ning Wuyang said seriously.
But Hua Yi always felt that he still had options.
Then I thought about it, I have lived for such a long time, and I have never seen anyone. Ning Wuyang is willing to dig a hole, and it depends on whether he is willing to jump in. If he angers him, he will run away, or give Ning Wuyang a clue. A few ecstasy formations taught them a lesson.
The brave Hua Yi, who was a skilled man, asked on the spot where the tobacco was stored, and under Ning Wushuang's arrangement, he was led by the servant towards the northeast.
Shen Youchu and Ji Jin, who were standing at the door, stepped back a few steps.
When Hua Yi came out and was about to greet them, Hua Yi didn't look at them at all. There was wind under his feet, and he could see how anxious he was.
When the others walked away, Shen Youchu made a face at Hua Yi's back.
"If I had known that Mr. Ning could keep him with a cigarette, I wouldn't have had to play chess with him just now."
Although Ji Jin does not deny Yuchu's contribution, it seems that this is indeed the case.
However, she wanted to remind Mr. Ning...
"I can only keep Master Hua for a while with cigarettes alone. If Miss Shen hadn't defeated him in chess and made him feel like he had to stay here anyway, I'm afraid the attraction of cigarettes to Master Hua wouldn't be as strong as it is now. .”
Ning Wuyan's words made Ji Jin nodded slightly to show his agreement.
Shen Youchu was startled by Ning Wuxu who suddenly walked out, and explained in a panic: "We just came. Mr. Ning, Jin'er and I really didn't see the way you were screaming in pain just now."
"..."
There is no three hundred taels of silver here, and Shen Ji has never seen it outside the courtyard.
Ning Wuyang originally wanted to pretend to be sophisticated and tell him his plan to retain Hua Yi, but when he saw Shen Youchu's teasing smile, he sighed inwardly.
The tall image he had finally built up was ruined in one day.
If that's the case, let's show off.
"If I had known that Miss Shen and Miss Ji hadn't seen it, I should have asked Master Hua to bandage it later, so that you could see the bleeding after a twisted tendon recovers, and learn more about medical skills."
Ning Wuhuang was not trying to save his respect, he simply wanted to scare Shen Youchu who was deliberately teasing him.
Shen Youchu is extremely accomplished in painting and has a rich imagination.
After hearing his words, I didn't know what I thought of, my face changed slightly, I covered my mouth and took a step back.
But after calming down the discomfort in her stomach, she let go of her hand and carefully looked at Ning Wuchang's arm, which had been fixed in a splint and could not see the injury clearly.
"Mr. Ning, are you in pain now? If you are embarrassed to shout that it hurts, Jin'er and I will turn our backs and cover our ears. How many more times will you shout like before?"
Well……
When Ning Wuyan faced Shen Youchu who was so serious about putting forward such valuable opinions, he felt that he was not scared, so he shot himself in the foot, which deepened the impression that Shen Youchu had yelled at him just now.
He waved his hand quickly: "No need, I don't feel any pain."
"Can I touch the splint?"
Shen Youchu blinked his inquiring eyes with a cunning look in his eyes.
hiss! My feet really hurt.
Ning Wuyan knew that he was being teased by Shen Youchu and couldn't refuse, so he simply ran away.
"I have something else I forgot to tell Master Hua. Let's go ahead. Next time we change the dressing, you two ladies don't have to watch and study. Farewell!"
"Hmph, Mr. Ning, he still wants to scare me. At this time, I am the one who feels sorry for you and is embarrassed, right, Jin'er?"
Shen Youchu turned around and saw Ji Jin's stunned expression, and realized that Ji Jin actually believed Mr. Ning's lies, hid his face and sighed.
Jin'er, please wake up, he is teasing us!
Seeing that Ji Jin couldn't get over it for a while, Shen Youchu stopped his smile and looked at Ju Xiang with his teeth clenched.
"I asked you to find out who injured Mr. Ning. How is the investigation going?"
