Chapter 24 Black As Coal(1/2)

As soon as she left the house that day, she realized that she was being watched.

After Chu Yunning got on the carriage, she asked the driver to go around the city. At the corner, she took the opportunity to get off the carriage, got into a small alley and left without anyone noticing.

Back at the palace, Bixiu came over with a cup of hot tea: "Princess, Luzhu went to Hanxiang Pavilion again in the evening."

Chu Yunning nodded when he heard this and hummed a tune in a good mood: "Beibei, how about I make you a beggar's chicken tonight?"

"Okay!" Beibei held the copybook in his hand, crossed the threshold, and grinned at Chu Yunning.

After checking Beibei's handwriting, Chu Yunning asked again: "A person's legs are necrotic, he has been infected with cold poison, he has been taking medicine for five years, and now he is allergic to many medicines. What should he do?"

Beibei blurted out: "Peel out the rotten flesh and force out the cold poison from the body. If you want to recover, you can only endure the pain that ordinary people cannot bear."

"anything else?"

"Mom, is Mo Shizi's leg difficult to heal?"

Beibei was very smart and guessed who the patient was right away.

"It's a little tricky, but it's still within the tolerance range."

If we were in modern times, we could directly perform surgery on Mo Shizi and put nails in his legs. If it didn't work, we could also install prosthetic limbs.

Here, the environment is restricted, and her rash actions will cause Mo Shizi to die of bacterial infection.

Mother and son spent some time together warmly. Chu Yunning rolled up his sleeves and led Beibei to dig a hole by the river.

I got a lot of yellow mud and put it on the marinated chicken, wrapped it in layers of lotus leaves, buried the chicken in the soil, and covered it with a layer of red-hot charcoal.

"Princess, what's this strange thing to do?"

Bixiu became more and more curious. She had never seen these before.

"This is the beggar's chicken, invented by my mother." Beibei raised his neck proudly.

As time goes by, the soil exudes fragrance.

Chu Yunning skillfully pulled out the beggar's chicken with a stick, opened the lotus leaves, and the aroma immediately filled the air.

"What are you doing?" Prince Xiao came over with a box of exquisite snacks. From afar, he saw several people gathered in front of the small mound. The closer they got, the stronger the aroma became.

Beibei was the first to say, "It's a beggar's chicken. My mother made it for me."

Beggar's chicken?

King Xiao frowned, where did Chu Yunning know these strange things?

"You did your own research on this too?"

Chu Yunning nodded without hesitation: "No matter what you want from Lengxiangyuan, I accidentally dropped a pigeon and I roasted it. It tasted pretty good."

King Xiao's mouth twitched when he heard this. He said that there were fewer and fewer homing pigeons, and he thought they were hunted down by the enemy.

It turned out to be eaten.

The aroma of the beggar's chicken was fragrant. Chu Yunning pulled it gently, and the bones and flesh were separated, and the oily juice was still showing. He was appetizing at first glance.

"The prince must not like this, so I won't invite you..."

Before Chu Yunning finished speaking, King Xiao sat on the ground.

"This is the rose cake and cherry cheese cake from the Dim Sum Pavilion. I saw that many people are buying it. Please give it a try."

Prince Xiao opened the food box and revealed the exquisite snacks inside.

Beibei held the chicken drumstick in his hand and turned to look at Chu Yunning.

Prince Xiao frowned and said in a deep voice: "You are a man, how come you don't have any opinion at all?"

Beibei directly picked up one and handed it to Chu Yunning: "Mother, try it."

Unable to bear to refuse, Chu Yunning lowered his head and tasted it. It was soft in the mouth and the taste was acceptable.

"good."

The atmosphere between the three of them was a bit strange. Chu Yunning was taking care of Beibei, and Prince Xiao sat aside and thought deeply from time to time.

After a long time, Prince Xiao asked: "Do you know Hanxiang Pavilion?"

Most of the people in Hanxiang Pavilion are mysterious and unpredictable, and several managers come and go without a trace. How many dignitaries have suffered losses in Hanxiang Pavilion.

When he found out that the capable people Chu Yunning knew were from Hanxiang Pavilion, he was really shocked.

"What exactly do you want to ask, Your Majesty?" Chu Yunning asked.

"The depth of the water in Hanxiang Pavilion is not something you can explore at will. I am worried that you will be deceived."

"I'm not the only one who went to Hanxiang Pavilion. Why didn't the prince go and persuade Concubine Ye?"

Prince Xiao frowned: "I am trying to persuade you with good intentions, why are you so stubborn?"

Chu Yunning remained silent.

The atmosphere was quiet for a while, and Beibei took a nap quietly lying on Chu Yunning's lap.

It was getting dark, and Prince Xiao suddenly said, "Is it true that you can't tolerate Yan'er no matter what?"

How can two people coexist peacefully when there is a life between them?

There was no clue on Chu Yunning's face, and she shook her head in denial: "It's enough for me to have Beibei. Concubine Ye is also a miserable person. As long as Concubine Ye doesn't mess with me, I won't embarrass her."

"I am very pleased that you can think so. Yan'er is sentimental and not as strong as you. In addition, she lost her child before and has been in trouble for so many years. I will give you some advice in private."

Prince Xiao smiled and said, "As long as you two can live in harmony, it will be my blessing."

Chu Yunning lowered his head and there was a flash of ridicule in his eyes. The two of them could only live and die.

"Don't worry, my lord, I will not attack anyone unless the enemy attacks me. If the enemy attacks me, I will repay him a hundredfold."

Chu Yunning had a smile on her face, but her tone was unquestionable.

Under the moonlight, her skin had a faint halo, and her dark eyes could not be clearly seen.

The smile on Prince Xiao's handsome face gradually grew stronger, and he repeatedly promised: "Yan'er will never have a hard time with you again."

"hope so."

She didn't believe a word of it. She wished Ye Yan'er would die. Likewise, Ye Yan'er hated herself in her heart.

Prince Xiao wanted to stay overnight, but Chu Yunning sent him away on the pretext of feeling unwell.

King Xiao returned in despair and had no choice but to leave.

Early the next morning, Chu Yunning shook off her tail, disguised herself as Master Ning again and went to the eldest princess's mansion.

The eldest princess had been waiting in the corridor for a long time. When she saw someone coming, she came forward and said, "Master Ning, my son had a high fever last night that didn't go away. According to your method, the fever has just gone down. Is there any danger?"

Chu Yunning tied one hand on her lower back and said with a sullen face: "I was invited to see the prince's doctor. I don't want to cause trouble. If the eldest princess hopes that the prince's leg will get better as soon as possible, don't ask for trouble."

.”

The eldest princess was confused when she heard this.

"Please give me some advice, Master Ning."

Chu Yunning: "I don't want people to follow me when I go out."

After saying this, the eldest princess understood instantly and apologized with a smile: "Master Ning, don't worry, I will leave this matter to me."

Chu Yunning then put on a good face and went to see Prince Mo. Prince Mo had been sweating all night long and his face was pale.

She checked the wound and luckily it didn't get worse.

"Master Ning, the Crown Prince..."

"Eldest Princess, as long as the prince can endure the pain of having his bones cut out, I can guarantee that the prince will be back on his feet within a year."

The eldest princess was surprised and happy, and thanked her repeatedly.

Just like yesterday, Chu Yunning cut out the flesh and bones of the other leg.

Mo Shizi bit the cloth tightly in his mouth, his veins throbbed with pain, and his whole body felt as if he had been fished out of water.

Chu Yunning stopped after two hours. She was so exhausted that she could hardly lift her arms.

Mo Shizi was gasping for breath and never cried out in pain from the beginning to the end, which she couldn't help but admire.

"Same as yesterday, the dressing needs to be changed in time, the prince must not be allowed to have a high fever, and the prince needs to be cared for closely and cannot be left alone."

After some warnings, Chu Yunning left.

This time without the tail following him, Chu Yunning felt much better and returned to Hanxiang Pavilion.

The shopkeeper immediately said: "Master, that maid came to buy Xueyan Pills again. This month's Xueyan Pills are not enough."

Chu Yunning counted the time and found that Ye Yan'er had been taking Xueyan Pills for half a month. Although Xueyan Pills can beautify and nourish the skin and make the skin radiant in the shortest time, it also has a fatal weakness.

That means there is dependence. The harder you use it in the early stage, the greater the side effects will be in the later stage. If you do not continue to use it in time, your skin will become darker and darker day by day, and the skin will also become loose.

"Xue Yan Pill is no longer for sale."

It is something that is harmful to people in the first place. Once the purpose is achieved, it is useless to keep it.

"yes."
