The reborn worthy minister is difficult to do

Sitting at the top of the side seat, Mrs. Wang kept silent and sipped her tea quietly. When she saw Xu Ci stepping into the hall, her calm eyes immediately shone, and she waved to Xu Ci, "Ziqing is back!" now? Come to mother."

Xu Ci took off his cloak and handed it to Nian Bai and Nian Xiao who greeted him as soon as he came back. They walked to Wang's side and asked, "What happened?"

Mrs. Wang glanced at Mrs. Lin who was lying in Father Xu's arms crying endlessly, and flattened her mouth in disdain, "Your elder brother, Zi Ya, for some reason today, suddenly his whole body was swollen, his head was as big as a bucket, and it was unbearably itchy. , Now I have scratched several places."

"Isn't elder brother in a coma? How can he still feel itching?" Xu Ci added insult to injury, "But what exactly is this disease? Has the doctor seen it?"

"The chief doctor of Baicaotang, Dr. Sun, came here and shook his head repeatedly after seeing it, but he couldn't diagnose the disease. He could only prescribe some antidote and complement medicine, and see how the effect is. It's not that Cuiping just went to get the medicine back, and he is suffering."

Xu Ci whispered in Wang's ear, "Then Aunt Lin isn't going to take care of her son, what are you three doing here?"

"She knows that there is a Tianshan snow lotus in my room that can remove all poisons, and she is asking me for it right now with the master."

Tianshan snow lotus was also given by his grandfather, so it is very precious.

Mrs. Wang has been hiding it in a dark compartment in the room and has never taken it out, but Mrs. Lin knows all about it.

"What do you mean, mother?"

Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed, "We are all a family, but if I really want to take it out, I am a little unwilling." Mrs. Lin usually runs on her, but today she asked her to take out the rare Tianshan snow lotus for her. her son.

Mrs. Wang never believed that it was Xu Ci who pushed Xu Ziya into the water. Although Xu Ci was usually a bit arrogant and mischievous, he definitely would not have enough space to push a child into the lake in the cold weather of Lajiu.

She didn't believe Lin's one-sided words at all. They just said goodbye three days ago, and now they came to ask for Tianshan snow lotus. Do you really think that their Wang family is so easy to handle? !

They were all in the same hall, Wang's voice was not deliberately lowered, and Lin's voice stared in this direction.

Xu Ci pondered for a moment, and said slowly, "Father, Aunt Lin, it's not that my mother doesn't want to take out the snow lotus. It's because the snow lotus can remove all kinds of poisons if it's done properly. If it's not used properly, it may backfire."

Xu Changzong comforted Mrs. Lin, and asked in a deep voice, "How do you say that?"

"Although snow lotus can cure all diseases, it also contains colchicum poison, which is highly toxic. It needs to be removed with other medicinal materials before it can be really used as medicine. Tianshan snow lotus is very rare, and it is the chief of the Baicaotang Dr. Sun doesn't necessarily know how to use snow lotus."

After taking a sip of the Jin Junmei that Mrs. Wang handed over, Xu Changzong and Mrs. Lin couldn't wait any longer. They looked at Xu Ci anxiously, and then Xu Ci put down his water glass and continued, "I'm afraid there are only those in the harem who have access to all kinds of rare medicinal materials from time to time. Only the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital had the opportunity to see the Tianshan snow lotus. And the imperial hospital also has various rare prescriptions and books, among which there may be a cure for my elder brother's strange disease."

Xu Ci spoke clearly and logically. Xu Changzong felt that since he beat Xu Ci, Xu Ci had become more knowledgeable and smart. "Then what do you mean?"

"When I go to study with you in the palace tomorrow, I will ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to see if you can accommodate me and let the imperial doctor see the elder brother's illness." Xu Ci raised a smile and supported the handle of Wang's chair, "Or Daddy is going to ask His Majesty?"

"..." How dare he beg His Majesty for this matter!No matter how much he dotes on Xu Ziya, he is just a bastard.

For the sake of a concubine, I begged the emperor to send an imperial physician who specializes in treating the nobles of the palace to condescend to come here. At best, it is His Majesty who is sympathetic to his subordinates.Worst of all, His Majesty the Son of Heaven actually shared the Imperial Physician with the bastard son of a humble official.

It's no wonder the emperor is not furious, how could he agree.

Xu Ci had always been on good terms with the prince, even if the prince refused to agree, it was Xu Ci who was scolded, not himself.

"Alright, let's do as you said. That day you pushed Ziya into the water to catch the cold, and you have also learned a lesson, so you will not pursue it further as a father."

The moon was already on the tip of the tree, Xu Changzong helped Mrs. Lin up, and Mrs. Lin was half nestled in his arms, looking like a little bird, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest early." These words were addressed to Mrs. Wang Said.

When Xu Ci returned to the house, Nian Bai and Nian Xiao hurriedly closed the door, and the thieves rushed to Xu Ci's side.

Xu Ci smiled all over his face, "Good job."

"Fortunately not humiliated!"

Xu Ci is the devil king of the world, and Nian Bai and Nian Xiao are his two right-hand men.

As long as Xu Ci asked them to do it, they would never be soft-hearted, two diehard members of Xu Ci.

In his previous life, Xu Ziya also had this symptom once.

It happened when Xu Ziya was about 20 years old. It happened that the Iceman had mentioned a good marriage. Not long before they were going to get married, Xu Ziya suddenly contracted the disease.

The disease lasted for three months, during which time I took countless medicines, but there was no solution.

Later, in order to appease Xu Changzong, the emperor sent the imperial physician Wang from the imperial hospital there. The imperial physician Wang stayed at Xu's house for three days, and on the fourth day he saw the problem.

The noble daughter who got married gave Xu Ziya a tabby cat. Xu Ziya loved the house and black, so he kept it in the house.

However, he has a special physique, when someone else touched a cat that had nothing to do with it, his whole body would swell up and the itching would be unbearable.

Doctor Wang ordered someone to throw the cat out, and moved Xu Ziya out of the house where the tabby cat used to stay.I also prescribed some medicines for reducing fire, removing dryness, detoxifying and nourishing the kidney, and the edema subsided within a few days.

Later, Imperial Physician Wang warned Mrs. Lin not to let Xu Ziya have close contact with cats, not even cat hair.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin threw the tabby cat to the ground in hatred. For no reason, raising a cat ruined the marriage.

The Xu family had never raised cats before, and now they dared not.

……

Xu Changzong made a rule at home that everyone in the family had to eat together if they had nothing to do at noon, so that everyone could use this time to connect with each other.When Xu Ci came back from his companionship in the palace, the huge dining table was already full of people, and he was the only one missing.

Xu Changzong sat at the main seat, on the left were Mrs. Xu, Xu Ziying, Lin, and Yang, and on the right were Wang, Xu Zijian, Xu Ziyu, and Zhao.

Lin's daughter, Xu Ziying, sat between the old lady and Lin, holding the old lady's arm, and said something, which made Xu Changzong and the old lady burst into laughter. Lin's expression was not as anxious as yesterday, His expression relaxed a lot.

Lin's appearance is beautiful, and she is the best-looking among Xu Changzong's wives.Her daughter Xu Ziying followed her, more so than worse.Ke Xuci faced the indescribable disgust and revulsion on this face, filled with hatred.After suppressing it for a long time, he suppressed the hatred before pacing into the room.

Xu Zijian and Xu Ziyu are a pair of twins born to the concubine Zhao's family, one year younger than Xu Ci.

The temperament of the two followed Mrs. Zhao, they were very meek, they sat there quietly, their backs straightened, but their faces were buried in their chests.

Seeing Xu Ci walk in, several people stopped laughing, and the old lady Xu said kindly, "Ziqing, you're back, wash your hands and come sit down."

There was an empty seat next to his mother Lin, which was reserved for himself. Xu Ci smiled and said "Okay, grandma", then took off his fur collar cloak and handed it to Nian Bai behind him.After washing his hands in the washbasin brought by the maid, he wiped it off with a towel before going to sit down in Mrs. Wang's seat.

After Xu Ci sat down, Xu Changzong yelled for dinner.

The servants filed in and placed the steaming meals on the table one by one.

Mrs. Xu lived a poor life since she was a child, and she advocated frugality. There were only six dishes and three soups on the dinner table for ten people.

During the banquet, Mrs. Wang kept adding vegetables to Xu Ci, and the rice bowls in front of Xu Ci's eyes piled up into a small hill in a short while.

Xu Ci's eyes began to be blurred by the mist, he took a deep breath and held back his tears.

Mother gave birth to me, bowed to me, raised me to raise me, entered and exited me.

However, the virtue of wanting to repay, Haotian Wangji.

He has never felt this kind of warmth since his mother died in depression.

Today can be regarded as the first time after he was reborn, he really saw this big family again, everything changed, and only a sigh remained.

Xu Ziying graciously picked up a chopsticks of vegetarian dishes for the old lady, "Grandma, can I continue with your granddaughter?"

The old lady Xu happily took the food, "You can talk about it in my room after dinner, old lady, I'm old, I'm afraid I can't help it, and I'll be embarrassed if I laugh."

Xu Ziying responded with a smile, "Grandma is very right, Ziying didn't think well."

Seeing her daughter pleasing the old lady so much, Mrs. Lin was very pleased, and cast a sideways glance at Mrs. Wang who had never spoken to her.

Hmph, each of my two children is better than yours. Look at your own son and daughter, one is a demon king, the other is a tomboy, neither of them looks like a lady.

It's just that she took the opportunity to become the official wife.

Mrs. Lin kicked Mrs. Yang who was sitting next to her under the table. Mrs. Yang sighed in her heart, lifted her face from the rice bowl, and said with a smile: "The joke that the eldest lady told just now is really funny. I don't know how to laugh."

Every time the bad guy asks her to do it, isn't it because she is sure that she has no children and is helpless, so it's easy to handle?

The originally excellent atmosphere became serious again because of Yang's words, Mrs. Xu was a little unhappy, she lowered her smiling face, and sighed, "We are talking and laughing here, but Zi Ya is alone in the room. suffer."

Xu Cimo didn't make it, he lowered his head and slowly ate the food brought by Mrs. Wang.

Xu Changzong smiled to smooth things over, "Zi Ya has always been filial, if he knew that his mother cared about him so much, he would feel guilty. Don't worry, mother, Zi Qing promised to enter the palace yesterday to ask the crown prince to invite the imperial physician, right, Zi Qing?"

Wiping the corners of his mouth with an embroidered handkerchief, Xu Ci looked at Xu Changzong leisurely, "His Royal Highness has agreed, and there should be a message from the palace in the afternoon." The purpose of turning such a big turn was to ask him this question words.

Just wait for the imperial doctor to come, Mrs. Lin, don't regret it.Xu Ci said silently in his heart.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that there are no courtiers who have been diagnosed by the imperial physician, but they are all important officials with high prestige, and it is a great kindness for a concubine who is a mere fourth-rank Minister of Rites to be treated by the imperial physician.

The old lady Xu took a sip of soup slowly, looked around, and said, "Now that it's the twelfth lunar month, I don't know when Zixian will come back."

Xu Zixian was a child born to a housewife of Xu Changzong. The housewife was unlucky and had a difficult delivery when she gave birth to Zixian, so this child was the only one left and passed away.

Seeing that she was pitiful, Wang received her name.

But since he was a child, this child didn't like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting like the ladies, but he liked to dance knives and swords, and he liked boxing.

Wang also told her several times, but Zixian didn't listen, so she just let her go.

Xu Changzong didn't allow it, he was second in Enkewen, a fourth-rank servant, and he looked like a tomboy when he gave birth to a girl.Xu Changzong even imprisoned her for several days for this, and beat her several times, but Zixian remained the same.

Three years ago, a hermit on Taibai Mountain ran into Zixian by chance, and was pleasantly surprised that she was a genius in martial arts.

So he asked Xu Changzong to take Zixian to Changbai Mountain to practice, and only go home once a year during the Chinese New Year.

As soon as Zixian was mentioned, Xu Ci's hatred for Xu Ziying surged up again. It was this vicious woman who designed to kill Zixian!
