Chapter 715: People are more beautiful than flowers

I have to say, when it comes to making fun of people, beggars are the best. That's really mean.

Emperor Mingpei listened to the conversation along the way and found it somewhat amusing: "That's how it should be!"

Hao Huashi said with a smile: "Now the people all hate Chen Jingtao. I heard that someone threw rotten vegetable leaves into his yard, and then was stopped by someone. The person said to him, 'Don't throw it, or he will blame you and say that he failed the exam because you disturbed him. What should we do? Let him take the exam well and see how he can do!'"

Emperor Mingpei asked, "Is this the person you arranged?"

"No," Hao Huashi said with a smile, "That's what I thought, but it's too late. This is someone arranged by Chen Sande... Your Majesty, this Chen Sande is really interesting. I went to take a look that day and saw several grown men gathered together, drinking and crying! They said how scared the little princess must have been at that time, and how sad she must have been..."

Emperor Mingpei twitched his lips.

Yan Shirong said, "By the way, my senior brother told me something today. Xinbao was wearing a mask that day... I heard that it is now popular among noble ladies in the capital to wear such masks."

"Yes, yes, yes!" As soon as he said that, Hao Huashi suddenly remembered: "I said that when I went out today, I saw a woman wearing it. I thought it was already available in Beijing!"

"The masks before were not like this," Yan Shirong said, "I learned this from Xinbao."

Xinbao, who was eavesdropping on what was happening nearby, couldn't help but open her eyes wide: "Well, that's not everyone..." She paused.

It goes without saying that she must be thinking, doesn’t that mean everyone knows that Xinbao lost his teeth? Then Hao Huashi quickly said, “Yes!! Everyone thinks that Master is very good at wearing masks, and the masks are so beautiful, so they follow him to learn.”

Xinbao was relieved immediately, thinking that no one knew what she was worried about, and said happily: "Yes, Xinbao is very good at dressing and leads the trend."

Yuan Shenjue and Yan Shirong, who were a step late, said: "..."

Emperor Mingpei, who saw through everything, laughed.

Tuanzi touched the flower on the mask, snickered, and suddenly remembered: "Oh, right, wasn't there a doctor who was poisoned that day?"

"Oh, that," Hao Huashi said, "I gave him a token at the time, and told the Longxiong Guard at the door when I came back. When I remembered to ask about it the day before yesterday, he said he hadn't come. I guess he hasn't come in the past two days, otherwise he would have reported it long ago."

Tuanzi was very surprised: "Why? Doesn't he believe in Xinbao?"

"It shouldn't be," Yuan Shenjue said, "That person looks calm and steady, not the kind of person with a weird temper. He might just feel embarrassed to disturb us because we have so many things to do recently."

Tuanzi nodded suddenly.

Hao Huashi asked, "Is his poison easy to cure?"

Tuanzi said, "It's not easy to cure. It will take some time, but it can be cured."

"Are you in a hurry?"

“No hurry.”

Hao Huashi smiled and said, "Then Master, don't worry. Let's wait until he comes."

Xinbao nodded.

Because there were so many rumors outside, Xinbao didn't go out for several days.

It was not until almost the end of the month that Hao Huashi said that the land in the medicine garden had been turned over and asked when the herbs could be planted. Only then did Xinbao take people to take a look.

Zhuangzi was only about an hour's drive from the imperial palace, but when they got close it became a dirt road, making it difficult for the carriage to navigate, so the group got off the carriage and strolled forward.

Xinbao wore a small hat and a small mask, both made of silk and embroidered with small flowers.

She also wore a modified brand of tights, with pants underneath and a slightly shorter skirt, the kind that was convenient for walking. The patterns on her entire body, from the hat to the mask to the clothes to the shoes, were all matching. And because she had to wear a hat, she tied her hair into a small braid, and even the flowers on the ends of the braids were the same.

After putting it on, it looks like a female knight's costume, small and beautiful as you want.

Xinbao was so overwhelmed by her own beauty that she couldn't wait to get off the carriage.

The weather is getting warmer and the grass is turning green again.

Hao Huashi is like a colorful butterfly, flying around, chatting with this person, chatting with that person, and even chatting with farmers in the fields.

Yuan Shenjue and Tuanzi walked forward hand in hand.

Tuanzi was obviously bubbling with joy and swinging her arms vigorously… Although he thought it was silly to do so, he still let her swing them around.

There are a few early-blooming forsythia flowers next to it, waving in the wind. The small yellow stamens are cute and exquisite, and they match Xinbao's outfit very well.

Yuan Shenjue turned around and asked, "Xinbao, do you think the flower is beautiful?"

Xinbao took a look and said, "You want flowers? Xinbao will pick them for you!!"

She let go of his hand and walked over, then grabbed a flower, held it with both hands, and pulled it down with all her strength.

Yuan Shenjue silently held his forehead, then went over to cut it off for her, carefully made it into a wreath, hung it on the button, and smiled, "Does it look good?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Tuanzi nodded vigorously, made a heart shape with his hands, and praised sincerely: "My wife is more beautiful than flowers!!"

Yuan Shenjue: “……?”

He silently raised his hand and held down Tuanzi's little head.

He was growing fast now, and it was much easier for him to hold her hand than to hold her hand. He gently pushed her forward and said, "Practice calligraphy in the future, don't copy medical books. You already know all the medical skills. Copy idioms instead. Don't use them randomly in the future."

Tuanzi was very unconvinced: "Do I need to learn the idiom Xinbao?"

Yuan Shenjue: “……?”

He said, "Then do you think it's right to use Renbihuajiao?"

"Yes!" Tuanzi nodded without any guilt: "Just right, very accurate?"

She shook her head left and right, shook off his hand, and smiled at him with her big eyes full of laughter: "Xinbao, every time he praises his wife, he wants to give himself a thumbs up. How can there be someone in this world who is so quick-witted and uses words so brilliantly!"

Yuan Shenjue: “…”

What could he say...his fairy wife had nothing to say.

The group soon arrived at the medicine garden of the Medical Department.

This large piece of land is surrounded by walls. Considering that precious medicinal herbs may be grown there in the future, the walls are built quite high, and some houses are also built inside to facilitate supervision and inspection.

As Xinbao and his group entered, officials from the Medical Department came to greet them.

Hao Huashi was nominally in charge of the Imperial Pharmacy, while the official in charge here was called Lu Ping, who was in charge of the medicine garden.

The farm is flat and has more than 230 acres of land. It is not very big, but you can see that it has been carefully plowed, the weeds have been removed, and even the big clods of earth have been broken up. It is obvious that the farm has been taken care of with great care.

Although Hao Huashi was not familiar with farming, he could see that Lu Ping was doing something wrong and quickly praised him.

Lu Ping looked to be about thirty years old, with a handsome appearance and calm eyes. He smiled and said "I dare not" while asking: "Your Highness, do you want to rest first?"

"No need," Xinbao took the bamboo tube handed over by Huashuang, but he still turned his back, took off his mask, drank two sips of water, and wiped his mouth: "Let's take a look around first."
