When it comes to understanding women, women understand women better.
Princess Sheng'an keenly and shrewdly felt that with Su Rong's temperament, she would not condone Zhou Gu's entanglement. Unless she changed her mind about Zhou Gu and allowed him to be pampered, he could stay in Xie's Mansion all night.
The Duke's wife was not sure and reminded the eldest princess Sheng'an, "Mother, are we wrong? Su Rong was not careless towards Brother Gu, otherwise she would not have saved his life again and again. Now for him Making medicine was also because Brother Gu was going to Nanchu and she found out about it, so she got him some medicine. Since it was made for him, it was right for him to stay in the Xie Mansion to help. After all, they were not the only ones in the Xie Mansion. The two of them, as well as the eldest lady of the Su family and her brothers and sisters."
Princess Sheng'an nodded, "You're right, maybe I'm overthinking." She waved her hands, "That's all, we don't have to think too much, he has grown up, and he should make his own decisions on his own affairs. As elders, it is not advisable to interfere too much. Anyway, after he leaves Beijing, the sky is high and the road is far away, and we can't interfere even if we want to. It is useless to speculate about what is or is not, and it is a waste of energy. "
The Duke of Guo said: "What mother said is absolutely true."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked for a while. Because Zhou Gu was leaving yesterday, they both couldn't bear to sleep well, so they went to catch up on their sleep.
After Su Rong slept for an hour, she was woken up by Fengling on time. Zhou Gu woke up automatically when he heard the noise.
The food was brought from the kitchen, and the three of them sat at the table to have breakfast.
Fengling was a talkative person, so she asked Su Rong, "Sister, what are you going to do in the palace today? Your Majesty has summoned you?"
"No." Su Rong bit the bun, "Go to the library to borrow something."
Fengling's eyes lit up and she immediately became energetic, "Is it the one I thought you were borrowing?"
"Um."
Fengling said "Hey", feeling a little excited, "I like to borrow things from others. Last time I donated 5,000 taels of fragrant oil to the Great Buddha Temple. How can we compensate the palace this time?"
"The future beam belongs to His Highness the Crown Prince anyway. If we borrow something from the palace library, it can be regarded as borrowing from him, right? Didn't the thousand boxes of gold hidden last time be given to him?" Su Rong said: " Can it be offset?"
Fengling immediately said: "Of course it can be offset. There is so much gold. We all gave it to His Highness. It makes my heart hurt just thinking about it."
He suddenly felt a little bit at a loss and asked Su Rong, "Sister, what are you borrowing this time? Is it priceless? Can it be worth the thousand boxes of gold?"
"Yes!" Su Rong said, "I don't know how much it's worth."
Fengling was speechless, "You don't even know, so you just borrow it?"
"Ask Zhou Gu," Su Rong said.
Fengling looked at Zhou Gu.
Zhou Gu wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and briefly told Fengling what was in the palace's library.
After hearing this, Fengling's eyes lit up, "It turns out there is a treasure map. This is good. If it is true as rumored, not to mention one thousand boxes of gold, even two thousand boxes of gold are worth borrowing."
He put down his chopsticks and urged Su Rong, "Sister, you are too slow. When did you learn to chew slowly? Slowly? Hurry up, I can't wait any longer."
Su Rong didn't speak, pretending not to hear.
Zhou Gu said: "Don't rush her. She didn't sleep all night last night. She's so tired that she only has strength after eating."
Fengling shut up. He, who had slept well all night, was not qualified to urge someone who had worked all night. He could only wait patiently for Su Rong to finish eating.
Su Rong ate two steamed buns and drank a bowl of millet porridge. After cleaning up, she walked out of the room.
Zhou Gu hesitated and looked at Su Rong, "You just wear... this one? Isn't it inconvenient?"
Su Rong glanced at the long skirt and white fox fur cloak she was wearing, "It's inconvenient, but I can't wear night clothes into the palace because it will look like I'm a thief, right?"
Zhou Gu choked, laughed suddenly, and was speechless.
Su Rongxiao glanced at him, "You work hard, those herbs are precious, don't waste them, otherwise Fengling will have to cry because of her hard work. Let's go."
Zhou Gu suddenly felt extremely stressed.
Fengling said firmly: "Fourth Young Master, you have to be very careful about where you start. You don't know, I had to dig out those bugs from tree holes and dig three feet into the ground." , and those herbs found in the deep mountains and old forests, which were difficult. As for those herbs, I took my people on horseback and rode for a radius of 500 miles. In the end, I didn’t get enough, so I took my people to dig deep in the mountains. I was exhausted. ."
Zhou Gu almost didn't dare to do anything after hearing this, and grabbed Su Rong's sleeve, "This, I can't do it, right?"
Su Rong coughed and slapped his hand away, "I believe you can do it."
Zhou Gu: "..."
Su Rong and Fengling quickly walked out of the yard, leaving Zhou Gu standing at the door of the house. For a moment, the cold wind blew through the eaves. He stamped his feet desolately, gritted his teeth and returned to the house.
So, Su Xingze got the message from Su Rong. After entering Su Rong's house, he saw Zhou Gu holding a medicine book and carefully selecting herbal combinations. Amidst the strong smell of medicine that filled the room, he had a sullen face. Stay focused.
When he heard the sound of someone coming, he just glanced at Su Xingze, called "Brother Su", and then quickly continued with the matter at hand.
Su Xingze looked at Zhou Gu, thinking that he and Qimei were going around in circles. Who would have thought that now there would be another outcome. He hoped that Zhou Gu would get what he wanted, but like the eldest lady, he was worried about the future of Su Rong giving up Ye Guixue and Ye Xiangfu.
But no matter what, it was Su Rong's choice and they all supported her.
He knelt down and said to Zhou Gu: "Seventh sister asked me to help you."
Zhou Gu breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother Su, you are smart. With your help, I feel confident."
Su Xingze smiled, "Don't worry too early. I have never touched herbal medicines before, so I don't know how to make medicines. But I will help you make medicines according to the prescriptions in the book, and I will keep an eye on you so that you don't make any mistakes. OK."
"It's good if you can accompany me." Zhou Gu nodded and handed him the medicine book, "I have actually written down the prescriptions, but I'm just afraid that I won't remember them correctly. If you come and help me keep an eye on them, it's just a help. I'm very busy."
Su Xingze took the medicine book and nodded with a smile.
The two of them stayed in the house to make medicine. After getting the news, the eldest lady came over to take a look. However, seeing that the two of them were concentrating on each other, she did not enter the house and only stood at the door for a while without disturbing them. Then she turned and left.
Su Rong and Fengling came to the palace gate, handed over the token to enter the palace, untied their swords, and entered the palace together.
After the emperor had breakfast, he was meeting with the courtiers. Several important ministers lined up to see the emperor early in the morning. When Su Rong came, there were still courtiers waiting at the door.
The discerning father-in-law saw Su Rong and hurriedly went in to inform her. When the emperor heard that Su Rong was coming, he naturally would not keep her waiting and invited her into the Nourishing Heart Hall first.
