After delivering the eggs, Ah Qing came out and when she met Gu Yingxia's inquiring eyes, she shook her head slightly.
Sun Shurong did not hold a high position, but she paid special attention to appearances.
Gu Yingxia secretly took note of Sun Shurong.
The sun gradually rose higher and the temperature became hotter. The two concubines returned to the Cining Palace hand in hand.
"Queen Mother, the Imperial Master has sent another letter."
"read."
Gu Yinwei picked up her brush and started painting two vivid foxes.
"I till the land outside the capital, and do not seek fame and fortune among the princes..."
Bian Tao took away the front of the letter and pointed to the last line of words, "Chu Chu, the Imperial Master likes to write nonsense, just read the last line."
"Please ask the Queen Mother to give me some ginseng."
An 800-word letter is full of nonsense, with only the last six words being useful.
Gu Yinwei took a pair of scissors, cut a bunch of hair from the ginseng doll's head, and put it into the brocade box.
After Wei Junzhai received the brocade box, he opened it and immediately closed it with a dark face. He wrote in the letter asking for ginseng, so why did the empress dowager give him ginseng roots?
I opened it again, took another quick look, and confirmed that it was indeed ginseng root.
Wei Junzhai threw away the brocade box and lay on the ground with his legs spread out. A group of golden pheasants came to peck at his face, and several other golden pheasants stretched out their claws to step on his clothes.
One of the skinny golden pheasants accidentally ate the ginseng roots that fell from the brocade box.
Wei Junzhai Lai lay on the ground for half a minute, and only stood up slowly after he was completely awake.
He dusted himself off and prepared to accept reality.
Ginseng whiskers are ginseng whiskers. It is better to have ginseng whiskers than not to have them.
"Huh? Where are the ginseng whiskers? Where are the ginseng whiskers sent from the palace?"
The brocade box on the ground was empty, with only an empty box lying alone on the ground.
Could a small piece of ginseng root grow legs and run away by itself? Who stole it? Who stole his ginseng?
Wei Junzhai ran to catch chickens. One by one, the golden pheasants were caught and hung in the air by their feet. The chickens were frightened and flapped their wings and hid in the grass. Wei Junzhai was in a mess and used his hands and feet to catch chickens everywhere.
He had a few chicken feathers stuck on his head and after a lot of effort, he finally found the chicken that stole the ginseng.
Wei Junzhai was holding a chicken with its hands and feet tied up, and walking up the old stone steps step by step. The steps were lined with orchids. In the distance, there were clouds and mists, and the green mountains were hidden among the white clouds. The stone steps were kept very clean, and the melodious sound of bells came from the vermilion Taoist temple.
The Taoist boy was guarding the door. When he saw his master coming back, he immediately opened the door and let him in.
Wei Junzhai has practiced for many years and has reached the stage of fasting. He does not eat grains, does not kill animals, and likes to drink the Hundred Flowers Dew at the foot of Lingyin Mountain.
Therefore, when the Taoist boy saw the chicken in his hand, his face changed slightly. Could it be that the master wanted to eat chicken tonight?
"Master, this chicken?"
"This chicken will practice with me in the future."
The Taoist boy prepared a clean meditation room, and Wei Junzhai began to chant scriptures while holding the chicken.
The scriptures he recited were obscure and difficult to understand. The pheasant's eyes rolled back and its legs kicked randomly.
Two days later, there was only one egg left from the golden pheasant. There was a golden pattern on the eggshell, and Wei Junzhai was surprised.
The chicken is the descendant of the phoenix. Now, there is a golden glow on this egg, and there is a trace of the real blood of the phoenix hidden inside. It can be seen that the life he has worked so hard to obtain must not be wasted. God has mercy on him, and he is about to hatch a phoenix.
Wei Junzhai carried this egg with him wherever he went. In the hot summer, while others wore cool clothes, he wore a cotton jacket.
Even when he entered the palace to deliver eggs to Gu Yinwei, he refused to take off his cotton jacket.
"Wei Junzhai, aren't you hot?"
"I'm not hot. Even if I have to risk my life, I'm going to hatch a phoenix."
Gu Yinwei took out a bamboo basket and stuck two runes into it. Wei Junzhai reached out and touched the bamboo basket, and found that the temperature was just right, so he took out the egg in his arms and put it into the basket.
"You hatch the eggs. I'm going back to the mountain to raise chickens."
After delivering the eggs, Wei Junzhai went back. Without his cotton-padded jacket, he felt completely transparent.
Chuchu and Biantao thought the eggs sent by Wei Junzhai were decorations, so they put them in the basket and never took care of them.
Bian Tao stared at the bamboo basket for a long time, and Chu Chu came closer to her.
"What are you looking at, so serious?"
"I just thought I saw the eggs in the bamboo basket move."
"That's impossible. How can it move if the egg hasn't hatched yet?"
"Maybe I'm dazzled." Bian Tao got up and left to do other things.
After nightfall, a golden light flashed, and the two ginseng dolls and the Polygonatum in the backyard were so frightened that they dared not move.
An egg as big as a goose-warm stone jumped into the medicinal field from the fence gate and started to chew on the medicinal herbs on the ground.
It also used gestures to warn the ginseng doll and the Polygonatum not to complain.
After Jindan finished eating the herbs in the medicine field, he held Huangjing and chewed it. Huangjing was in tears. Its cultivation was shortened by 500 years.
The hair of the two ginseng dolls was also plucked out, and the golden egg was simply terrifying.
The next day, Gu Yinwei got up and took care of the medicinal field. The ground was in a mess. The Qingxin grass had been eaten away to the stump, and the hemostatic flower had not even a bud left.
"Who did it?"
The medicinal herbs in the medicine field are spiritual. When ordinary people approach, the herbs will sense the danger and then become invisible.
Huang Jing is timid and dares not steal the elixir. The ginseng baby has not even grown all its teeth yet, so it is impossible for it to bite the elixir.
All the abnormalities are due to that egg.
Gu Yinwei laid the bait and waited for the prey to take the bait.
The backyard was quiet at night. There was an ice orchid growing in the medicinal field. The orchid stretched out its leaves to absorb the essence of the moon. A golden egg grew two soft legs and slowly approached the orchid under the moonlight.
One step, two steps, closer and closer.
