Fragrance Returned

The Sixth Princess said, "In the past few years, we loved to quarrel and play together...Xunfeng was a trick of the old and young Su family, so she exchanged her with you. But the other two did it because their father wanted to fight over that one." Position, they are unlucky together...

"Actually, it's good to be an idle prince. Look at Prince Qing, Prince Rong, and Prince Ming. Their whole family has died, and their wealth is boundless..."

Xunxiang looked at the Sixth Princess. Some people were effective once they were taught a lesson, while others were ineffective no matter how many times they were taught.

Xun Xiang echoed, "Yes, take a step back and the sky will be brighter. Good times are just a matter of time. You have to think about things that are not your own."

The sixth princess looked at Xun Xiang solemnly and said, "You are the most astute girl I have ever met, not in terms of talent, but in terms of here."

She pointed to her head.

Xunxiang doesn't like the word "shrewd" very much.

Said, "Auntie Sixth Emperor, thank you. Those who say these words are the most astute people."

The Sixth Princess shook her head, "If I were smart, I wouldn't take advantage of a country girl like you who suddenly appeared."

It was said very rudely.

Although she accepted the reality, she was still unconvinced. A few years ago, she and the girls all thought about marrying Sun Yumu, but in the end they got the advantage of Xunxiang.

She also had to be convinced that even though Xunxiang grew up in the countryside, she was much better than them in some aspects.

Xunxiang didn't refute her. She didn't dislike the words "country girl".

Her eyes were elsewhere. He and Sun Yumu were childhood sweethearts. Sun Yumu had seen him look the "most rustic" in his life, but he just liked him.

At the beginning of Shen Shi, Xun Xiang began to cook a tonic to remove heat and moisture in the small kitchen of Kunning Palace. The ingredients were all from the palace.

In the evening, the emperor came to Kunning Palace, and the family of three had dinner with He Meimei, as if those unpleasant things had not happened.

The emperor also told Qiu Wangzhi and Sun Yumu to go to Quyuan Mansion to investigate the beggar case and set off in three days.

Xunxiang also knew that Jincheng and Quyuan Mansion were close. At this time, if someone goes to investigate, it should be related to King Duan and Princess Duan.

The emperor sent Sun Yumu there to train his grandson-in-law. She had to meet Sun Yumu, tell him about the string of beads, and ask him to pay special attention to Jingci'an and Master Kongjing.

In ancient times, transportation and communication were not developed, and it was not certain whether we would be able to return in two or three months.

Xun Xiang's eyebrows curled up in joy, and she went to the back to pat the emperor's shoulders and said what the emperor liked to hear.

After breakfast the next day, Xunxiang left the palace.

Queen Ye was reluctant to leave, "Why are you so anxious? Why don't you spend more time with me?"

Xunxiang pulled her sleeves and said coquettishly, "I made an appointment. I will come and stay with the Queen's grandmother in a few days. Oh, Gao Ping is staying with Concubine Qin these days. If the Queen's grandmother is lonely, let him come. Relieve boredom."

Empress Ye added, "We must make Yi Bo a biological child as soon as possible, and let our great-grandson come to relieve my boredom."

Mi Honglan is one year younger than Xunxiang. The implication is that Xunxiang should grow up quickly and give birth to a child to relieve her boredom.

Xunxiang also wants to grow up quickly. Marrying and having children, she never experienced these two stages of life in her previous life until she was in her thirties.

After leaving the palace, Xunxiang went directly to Ding Mansion. He also asked Chu'er to go to the Zhenhai Hou Mansion to deliver a message to Sun Yumu's young man, and they would meet at Zuixian Pavilion tomorrow.

Ding Pandi heard that Xun Xiang had something important to ask her, so he came to the capital to stay at Ding Sifu's house yesterday.

Now Ding Sifu belongs to the middle class, and he also bought a small courtyard in the capital, which is a one-step courtyard.

There are five main rooms plus three east and west wing rooms, as well as a reverse seat. It will be enough for a future wife and children.

There is only a wall between his house and shopkeeper Gong's house, so he would go to shopkeeper Gong's house for meals.

Shopkeeper Gong bought a woman to serve her. She was busy in the shop during the day, and went home with Ding Sifu at night, looking for her godson if she had anything to do.

She also agreed that in the future her yard would be owned by Ding Sifu after she died, and she could still use it as a second person to enter the yard by building a small door in the wall.

Ling'er and Shopkeeper Tang also agreed. As long as Ding Sifu takes good care of shopkeeper Gong, not only the yard but also many things belonging to shopkeeper Gong will belong to Ding Sifu.

In ancient times, mothers-in-law generally did not live with their daughters and sons-in-law. Women without sons would rather rely on their nephews or godsons to provide for themselves in old age.

When Xunxiang arrived at Ding Mansion, Ding Pandi had already arrived and was talking with Zhang, Ding Sifu, Ding Zhen and Xie in a side room of the main courtyard.

It was mainly Mr. Zhang who was talking to Mr. Xie, Ding Zhen and Ding Sifu.

Ding Pandi is still combing the girl's hair. Although she has the unique small eyes and bulbous nose of the Ding family, she is as fair and delicate as Ding Shuniang and Ding Zhen.

She is only one year younger than Ding Lichun and is already twenty this year. She said before that she would comb her hair after turning 20 and would never marry.

After so many things, her mind may have changed.

Moreover, there is no longer the coldness in his eyes that could repel people thousands of miles away. Although he doesn't like to talk, he doesn't have a dull face either.

I don’t know how she changed her temper.

Xunxiang is happy for her change.

After saying hello, Xunxiang called Ding Pandi to the side room alone.

She took out a string of beads given by the empty mirror and asked, "Sister Hao, look at it, have these beads been soaked in blood?"

Before Ding Pandi went to Su Mansion for massage, he followed Aunt Jin to make flower essence pills made from virgin blood and a facial massage ointment.

Moreover, Ding Pandi is a person who is willing to use her brain. She can figure out some things without others saying it.

Some imperial doctors can also confirm whether things contain blood, but Xunxiang is afraid that it will be revealed and is unwilling to let them see it.

Ding Pandi took a look at the beads, smelled them again, shook his head and said, "I can't tell. I can only smell the smell of medicine, but I can't smell any medicine at all."

Xunxiang was very disappointed. Ding Pandi asked again, "Can you use a knife to scrape the beads?"

Xun Xiang said, "Of course."

Ding Pandi said, "Bring a knife, a little salt and a mallet."

Xunxiang went out and asked the girl to get something.

Ding Pandi scraped the beads with a knife, scraped the sawdust on the paper, crushed it into fine powder with a mallet, and put it into a tea bowl filled with salt water.

The water in the tea bowl was a little dark brown.

After more than a quarter of an hour, Ding Pandi picked up the tea bowl and looked at it, then held it under his nose and smelled it, and affirmed, "There is blood in it."

"What blood?"

Ding Pandi shook his head, "I can't see any blood."

Rosary beads are used to recite Buddha and recite mantras. A eminent monk uses blood to make rosary beads. No matter what kind of blood he has, it cannot be said that he is virtuous.

It's reasonable for some evil monks to use blood to make medicine. They do it to cure diseases or to improve their own cultivation.

And why does Kong Ji, who is said to be an enlightened monk, use blood to make rosary beads?

Also, why did she give the bloody rosary beads to Dongyang and herself?

Could it be that he wanted to use the rosary beads to harm them? He and Dongyang have no grievances against her and have never even met...

Xunxiang looked solemn and said, "Thank you, keep this matter in your heart and don't say anything to anyone."

Ding Pandi nodded and said, "I won't tell anyone."

After several people finished their lunch, Ding Pandi said goodbye and returned to Kaixian County. (End of chapter)
