Lang Shining came to the easel and saw the princess's portrait placed casually on the side. He then picked up the portrait and quickly wiped off the dirt on it.

"You little bastard, who told you to touch my things?" Lang Shining walked out quickly, holding the portrait, and shouted at Benjamin's back, "I've told you so many times not to touch my things, not to touch my things, why won't you listen?"

Benjamin heard his master yelling at him angrily. He stuck out his tongue and continued walking outside, muttering quietly, "Isn't it just moving his painting? Is there any need to get so excited?"

Just as he finished speaking, Benjamin, who was holding the jar, suddenly bumped into the man coming towards him.

Ertai wasn't in a very good mood at the moment, so naturally his tone was filled with anger. "Who are you? Why are you walking so hesitantly?"

Benjamin also looked up and down at the strange man in front of him, but when he saw his gloomy face, he instantly calmed down.

"Judging from your appearance, you must be from the same place as Lang Shining, right?" Ertai looked at him and continued to ask, "Are you the new painter who came a few days ago?"

Benjamin nodded and introduced himself, "Well, my name is Benjamin, and Lang Shining is my master."

The voice just fell.

Lang Shining came out of the studio and saw Ertai and Benjamin talking.

Lang Shining did not go to meet him, but stood at the door and looked at Master Ertai with a smile, and could not help but teasing him, "Master Ertai, you are here. I told you that Doctor Hu is not in the Imperial Hospital, but you still don't believe me and insist on going in to take a look."

Ertai swallowed immediately after hearing what Lang Shining said.

He walked quickly to Lang Shining and asked, "Didn't you just say you had something good for me to try? What is it?"

"Benjamin, go heat up the hot chocolate and bring it over here." Lang Shining pushed Young Master Ertai aside, then looked at him and continued, "Now's the chance to take a quick look at the portrait and see if you're satisfied."

When Ertai followed Lang Shining into the painting room and saw the portrait of Xiaoyanzi, he was completely stunned.

The little swallow in the portrait is exactly the same as the little swallow in real life. Isn’t this a real little swallow?

"Lang Shining, your painting is too realistic." Ertai stretched out his hand to touch the portrait, but was slapped hard on the back of his hand by Lang Shining. "Why did you hit me?"

Lang Shining grabbed his hand and reminded him, "Don't touch the painting with your hands. If you touch the painting frequently, the oil on your hands will easily change the color over time, and it will not look good."

Ertai looked at Lang Shining doubtfully, "Is this true?"

"Believe it or not," said Lang Shining, "but I won't paint it again."

The voice just fell.

Benjamin returned with hot chocolate.

Then pour the hot chocolate from the jar into three cups.

Lang Shining took a cup of hot chocolate and handed it to Master Ertai. "Put the box on the table and try this specialty from my hometown while it's still hot. I guarantee you'll want more after you finish it."

Ertai put down the brocade box and took the cup from Lang Shining's hand, but after taking the cup, he found that there was a black unknown liquid in the cup.

Ertai looked at Lang Shining in surprise and said, "Lang Shining, this... black stuff, are you sure you can drink it? And why does it smell weird?"

At this time, Benjamin suddenly said, "Don't be fooled by the dark color of the hot chocolate, it tastes really delicious. Try it quickly. It won't taste good when it's cold."

Ertai picked up the cup, closed his eyes and took a big sip. He was immediately amazed by the taste.

Ertai looked at Lang Shining in surprise, "What was this thing you were talking about just now? What kind of force is it?"

"Hot chocolate."

Lang Shining answered Ertai's question with a smile.

Ertai took another sip and savored it carefully. "It's really delicious. Can you give me some when I go back later? I want to take it back for my brother and the others to try too."

"Okay, no problem." Lang Shining nodded heavily.

now.

After Doctor Hu returned to the Imperial Hospital, he learned that Master Ertai was waiting for him at Ruyi Pavilion, so he hurried to Ruyi Pavilion.

"Doctor Hu, why are you here?" The eunuchs at Ruyi Pavilion looked at him curiously when they saw him. "We didn't send anyone to invite you here, did we? And I haven't heard that anyone in Ruyi Pavilion is unwell."

Doctor Hu walked in and said, "Master Ertai is here. I'm here to see Master Ertai."

When Ertai heard the voice of Doctor Hu, he quickly put down the cup in his hand, then immediately picked up the brocade box and walked towards Doctor Hu.

"Doctor Hu, you're finally here." Ertai looked at Doctor Hu anxiously, "Please help me take a look at this comb. I think the eunuch from the Imperial Hospital should have told you about it when you came."

Doctor Hu replied, "Indeed, he told me everything. So when I learned that you were waiting for me in Ruyi Pavilion, I hurried over."

"Take a quick look."

"it is good."

Doctor Hu carefully took the comb from Young Master Ertai and examined it carefully. As time passed, his expression gradually became more solemn.

"How is it?" Ertai asked nervously.

"Master Ertai, this person's methods are truly cruel, but they are also extremely despicable." Doctor Hu looked up at Master Ertai and immediately placed the comb into the brocade box. "This comb has been soaked in water, and that water has been soaked in musk."

Ertai asked curiously, "What exactly is musk? Just now, that young eunuch at the Imperial Hospital said that this herb has the effect of inducing abortion. Could it be that the herb he was talking about is musk?"

"That's right, but this person is very clever. This water is not only soaked with musk, but also contains enough spices to cover up the musk smell. That's why I say this person is very clever." Doctor Hu said word by word. "But it's a good thing you came to let me take a look, otherwise it would be really difficult to find out that this comb has been tampered with."

Ertai got goose bumps all over his body and even trembled. "But since you said that spices were added to the water used to soak the comb, how can you be sure that there was the musk you mentioned?"

"Master Ertai, how could you have forgotten that my nose is the most sensitive in the Imperial Hospital? No smell can be hidden from me." Doctor Hu looked at Master Ertai, "Besides, this kind of musk is only found in my hometown. It is difficult for ordinary people to identify it."
