Chapter 182 Don’t Lie to Me
Seeing that his fourth brother ignored him and just looked down at the bamboo tube, the tenth master didn't seem angry at all.
He quietly picked up the chopsticks, stole a big shrimp from the Fourth Master's pot, and ate it happily.
Although the Ninth Master was ill, this did not prevent him from observing the behavior of his Tenth Brother. At first, he could not help but roll his eyes, but seeing how deliciously he ate, he could not help but pick up the spoon and scoop the soup from the bowl in front of the Fourth Master.
Doctor Liu also saw what the two masters were doing, but since the Fourth Master didn't say anything, he just pretended not to notice and replied, "Young lady was busy in the kitchen earlier. It's said that she was the one who prepared all the meals for the yamen today, and she also helped us boil the medicine. She worked really hard. I'm afraid she's still busy in the kitchen now."
"Master, do you want to call the girl over?" he said silently.
The Fourth Master nodded: "Yes."
Without saying a word, he immediately went out to give orders.
The Fourth Master looked at the two imperial physicians beside him and asked, "Where is the prescription?"
Doctor Liu immediately took out the prescription from his arms and presented it with both hands.
"The prescription the master found is very effective. This servant and the other imperial physicians prepared a large amount, which Master Buyan sent to various charity halls."
The Fourth Master looked at the rather childish handwriting on the prescription, which also had two typos, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
"When did Jiu'er deliver the recipe?"
The doctor from the Liu residence replied, "It was noon. I was just returning from the dungeon at that time. Sir Liu Yu's condition was not optimistic, but fortunately, he took medicine and he should be able to hold out for a while."
The Fourth Master nodded and continued, "To completely control the plague, the medicine we brought from the capital might not be enough, right? How many days can we expect?"
Liu Mansion Physician: "Master, today alone, we have already used up 30% of the medicine we brought from the capital. However, we still don't know the current situation of the major charity halls, but I estimate that many patients have not yet received their medicine."
The Fourth Master frowned and nodded, "I've already sent people out to collect herbs earlier. Some will be coming back in the next two days, so there's no need to rush to use them."
Doctor Liu and Imperial Doctor Liu looked at each other, both breathed a sigh of relief, and clasped their fists in response.
The Fourth Master felt a little restless, so he gave them a few more instructions and then got up and left.
"Master..." The voice behind him was silent and somewhat surprised.
The Fourth Master was silent for a moment, then asked, "Where is the kitchen?"
Bu Yu was stunned for a moment, then immediately pointed towards the east corridor: "Follow this road, turn into the backyard, and the kitchen is in the northeast corner."
The Fourth Master turned around and ran towards the northeast corner.
I understood without saying a word, it turned out that he was going to find a girl.
On the other side, the guard who went to ask for the wine to be warmed was also in a dilemma. He hesitated at the door for a long time and did not dare to go in.
There was no sound in the room, so he feared the girl had gone to bed. There was no one around, and even though the lights were on, there was no way a man like him could go in. He knocked twice on the door, but there was still no sound from inside.
Just when he was hesitating, he saw his master coming over. His eyes lit up and he immediately stepped forward: "Master."
The Fourth Master looked towards the window: "Is she in there?"
The guard nodded: "When I came here, I asked Mrs. Zhang, and she said that the girl had rested inside. This... I dare not go in..."
The Fourth Master just waved his hand and said, "Wait outside."
As soon as he entered the room, he could smell her refreshing and sweet scent. The Fourth Master's tense nerves relaxed, and he subconsciously looked over at the person.
She seemed extremely tired and fell asleep on the table.
The Fourth Master stood there for a moment, his brows slightly furrowed.
The more I get to know her, the more I realize she holds many secrets. Where do the watermelons, the peppers no one else has ever seen, and the fresh shrimp she gave me today all come from?
Also, how could she have a prescription for this plague that so many imperial doctors couldn't cure?
He walked in slowly, saw her peaceful sleeping face, and sat down beside her.
"I hope you will never lie to me..." The Fourth Master's eyes were gloomy as he stroked Wenjiu's face with his fingers.
He waved his hands like he was shooing away flies, changed his posture and continued sleeping.
The Fourth Master was stunned for a moment, then looked at her again. She had no idea what sweet dream she had, but she was smiling sweetly even in her sleep. A faint red mark was left on her cheek, and there was even a crystal clear mark at the corner of her mouth...
The Fourth Master, feeling both amused and helpless, picked up a handkerchief and wiped her face, and his worries were mostly relieved.
Why would you doubt the little girl whose heart is tied to him?
The Fourth Master shook his head in amusement, helped her up, and let her sleep leaning on him.
The room was very simple, with only a table and a small couch. The stove beside it was burning brightly, making it quite warm. But it was still not a good place to sleep.
The Fourth Master took off his cloak and wrapped the woman from head to toe. Then he picked her up and turned to go into the wing room in the backyard of the yamen.
As he became busy, the Fourth Master often stayed overnight in the yamen, and a room was cleared out for him here.
Wenjiu and Xiaojin were researching the planting of medicinal herbs in the space.
"Master, I just calculated that this heartbreak grass will take 20 days to germinate in ordinary soil, and another 10 days to grow branches and leaves. If you want to use it as medicine, it will take at least 40 days.
In our space, it can be used for about 10 days.
If planted on land upgraded with the Emperor's Heart, it will be ready in an hour."
Wen Jiu couldn't help but secretly marvel: "The Fourth Master's upgraded love is really amazing."
Xiao Jin raised his chin and said, "Of course. If this piece of land were a little bigger, we wouldn't have to worry about the medicinal herbs."
Wenjiu nodded and carefully scattered her medicinal seeds.
"We need to keep an eye on it. First, plant these herbs and then take the seeds. Try not to leave this piece of land idle. Leave more herbs, maybe they can be used."
[Ding, harvested a heart for the Emperor Star upgrade.]
Suddenly the sound of the love-hate bracelet was heard, and Wenjiu and Xiaojin subconsciously looked at each other.
"I haven't heard the voice of love for a long time. I really miss it." Wen Jiu said.
Xiao Jin said, "This one is worth the previous hundred. The master naturally can't hear it all the time. I didn't expect that a heart would grow so quickly..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wenjiu blinked.
"So, the Fourth Master is back?"
She was stunned for a moment, and before she could say a word to Xiao Jin, she was pulled out of the space.
A suffocating feeling came over her. Wenjiu opened her eyes and saw the handsome face of the Fourth Master. She subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he held the back of her head and she couldn't move away.
Fortunately, when she was about to die, the Fourth Master finally let her go.
Before Wenjiu could catch his breath, he was suddenly turned over and pressed on the soft pillow.
The slightly cool fingertips brushed across his waist, and he took off his shirt as if he was familiar with it.
"Master..." Wenjiu was panicked, but couldn't grab anything.
The next second, the scorching breath sprayed on the back of her neck, bringing a shudder...
His actions were too forceful, and Wenjiu couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Master...you...what's wrong with you?"
