Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy
Chapter 162 Chrysanthemum Banquet 2
Tian Yuanyuan is the veiled girl whose eyes light up when she talks about food at the Lunshan County Government Office.
"Hey, what was that hot pot dipping sauce you mentioned the other day?"
"Puchi!" A girl beside her laughed and said, "Doctor Song, you don't know, my cousin, when she just came back from Lunshan County, kept talking about hot pot dipping sauce. It's been so long, and she still hasn't forgotten it!"
Song Jinxiu smiled. This girl is indeed a foodie.
Tian Yuanyuan introduced with a smile: "Her name is Wei Lanrong, she is my cousin."
Wei Lanrong bowed and said, "My father is General Dingguo."
Song Jinxiu: "Wei Qidong is..."
Wei Lanrong: "He's my fourth uncle."
Tian Yuanyuan interrupted them and said, "Hey, Sister Song, please tell me, what is hot pot dipping sauce?"
Song Jinxiu smiled and said, "Since it's called a dipping sauce, it's naturally a side dish for dipping. Come to my house tomorrow and I'll treat you to hot pot."
"Hot pot? Okay, I want to see what kind of hot pot this is. It's actually edible."
The three of them were chatting animatedly here, but Li Wan was extremely shocked.
"She, she, she..."
Why is she here? Didn't she offend Guigu? Is she trying to curry favor with the princess?
Cui Zixuan asked, "Do you know her?"
This girl is not simple. Others may not see it, but she can see it clearly. Every step this girl takes is calculated. It is not just luck at all!
The entire layout of this maze is arranged according to the Bagua. She must have either solved this maze before or is proficient in Bagua.
Li Wan angrily said, "She's just a village girl from Lunshan County. I heard she even offended someone from Guigu. Sister Cui, do you want to teach her a lesson on behalf of Guigu?"
Cui Zixuan frowned.
Guigu is just an outer sect disciple, and there is no need for her to stand up for an outer sect disciple.
"But why do I hear people calling her Dr. Song? What's going on?"
"Oh, you don't know this? She is the chief doctor of mathematics in the Imperial College appointed by the emperor himself. She knows the Nine Causes of the Great Dao and even teaches the princes!" said a girl next to her.
"The Nine Causes of the Great Dao?"
Cui Zixuan frowned even more tightly.
Isn't the Dao Jiu Yin Jue lost? The Imperial Astronomical Observatory has a legend about the Dao Jiu Yin Jue, which is one of the secret techniques for calculating astronomical calendars.
She joined Xuantian Sect for two reasons: one was for the "Nine Heavens Song" and the other was for the "Nine Causes of the Great Way".
I have been working as a servant in Xuantian Sect for more than ten years, and I have only learned some skills in reading the weather and knowing when it will rain. I have gained nothing else.
I didn’t expect that the Nine Causes of the Great Dao was in the hands of this little girl?
"Are you saying that she taught the Dao Jiu Yin Jue to the students of the Imperial Academy? So the Emperor appointed her as the Chief Doctor of Mathematics?"
"Yes, Dr. Song renamed the Dao Jiu Yin Jue the Multiplication Table. My brother copied it down and taught us at home. I can even recite it by heart!"
"Really? That's great! Could you please write the multiplication table for me?"
"Of course it's okay."
Cui Zixuan couldn't wait to see the multiplication table, but Li Wan gritted her teeth as she looked at Song Jinxiu.
No, since Sister Cui doesn't intend to step forward, I have to find a way to tell Princess Kangning that this girl has offended Guigu, and don't let her use her as a shield to make fun of her.
However, she came to the chrysanthemum banquet with Cui Zixuan as a maid and had no say with Princess Kangning at all.
She was scratching her head anxiously when she heard someone say in surprise, "Mom, why does the nanny next to Dr. Song look like she's from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?"
"Yes, she is indeed the personal nanny of Princess Enyi. Huan'er, it seems that this Dr. Song is not an ordinary person. You must not offend him."
"Got it, mother."
Li Wan and Cui Zixuan heard the conversation between the mother and son.
Both of them were shocked.
Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, Princess Enyi.
Li Wan: Someone from Duke Su Xiaozhen’s family?
Cui Zixuan: Isn’t that Brother Su’s family?
Cui Zixuan narrowed her eyes and looked at Song Jinxiu and Nanny Lin beside her again. Could this be the woman that Brother Su was talking about?
Li Wan bowed to the mother and son who had just spoken and asked, "Young lady said that the nanny was the nanny of Princess Enyi? You're not mistaken, are you?"
"Years ago, I had the honor of visiting the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion with my mother. Princess Enyi was served by this very nanny. How could it be fake?"
Li Wan just felt a little confused.
How did the nanny who was with Princess Enyi end up with Song Jinxiu?
Could it be that this old woman had committed some crime? Was she kicked out of the Zhenguo Mansion? That's why she was taken in by Song Jinxiu.
After all, Song Jinxiu said she was lucky!
Humph! This is such good luck!
If only I had this luck...
No, I'd better not have this luck. Since the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion doesn't want it, I can't accept it. Otherwise, how can I explain to Duke Su Xiaoguo when I enter the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion in the future?
After hearing what the mother and son said, Cui Zixuan became even more suspicious.
Cui Zixuan squinted her eyes and looked at Song Jinxiu. She was just a yellow-haired girl who had not grown up yet.
Why would Brother Su fall for her?
However, it is better to believe it exists than to believe it does not.
"Wan'er, you said she offended Guigu. Since I'm a disciple of Xuantian Sect, it makes sense for me to take care of the affairs of the outer sect."
"Well, Sister Cui should have done this a long time ago. She should have made that woman kneel down and apologize."
"The time has come, Princess, please take your seats!"
A female official's voice was heard, and everyone went down the high platform corridor one after another.
The princess sat in the main seat, and the wife of General Dingguo, the wife of Marquis Cheng'en, the wife of Marquis Pingyang, the wives of the left and right prime ministers, and a group of noble ladies sat below.
The girls came in one after another and were led by the maids to sit down.
The Grand Princess smiled and said, "Who is the disciple of the Xuantian Sect's leader? Come forward and let me see you."
Cui Zixuan stood up, smiling, stepped forward and bowed, "Cui Zixuan greets the Grand Princess, may the Princess be well."
The eldest princess smiled and nodded. "Well, I heard that you are the granddaughter of the director of the Imperial Observatory and a disciple of the head of the Xuantian Sect. I am just curious, what can you do?"
Cui Zixuan said, "My daughter entered Xuantian Sect at the age of eight. She learned how to read yin and yang, and how to predict the weather. She also learned the art of alchemy from the elders of Danfeng."
"Oh? You actually know so much. Then, Miss Cui, please take a look at the feng shui of my chrysanthemum garden."
Cui Zixuan bowed and said, "Yin Yang Feng Shui is best understood when there are few people around. Now that the Grand Princess' phoenix form is here, everything is naturally auspicious, because your phoenix power can restrain all evil spirits."
"Hahaha, that makes sense. Then tell me about tomorrow's weather."
Cui Zixuan smiled and said, "It's not appropriate for the Grand Princess to test me.
My grandfather is the director of the Imperial Observatory. Yesterday, he and I discussed the weather forecast for the next three days. Tomorrow, it will be sunny and then cloudy, with rain at night. Furthermore, it will be sunny during the day and rainy three times at night.
"Hahaha, good boy, you don't have to mention your grandfather's contribution."
Cui Zixuan smiled and said, "Master taught us that a man cannot stand without trust, and Grandfather also said that the Cui family does not tell lies.
So, if the princess wants to test me, why not take a look at my pill? This is the Yangrong Pill that I personally made specifically for the princess.
It has the effect of black hair, white skin and a youthful mentality.
Princess, you will understand the secret after eating it for a few days."
My grandfather said that the eldest princess was over fifty years old and often asked the palace physician to prescribe Liuwei Dihuang Decoction to drink.
Based on the secret recipe of Xuantian Sect, she refined a batch of Tianwang Buxin Xiaoyao Pills, which were just right for women of this age.
