Reborn Daughter

Chapter 21 If you want to protect yourself, you must be ruthless
In the other room, Ding An was lying in Aunt Bai's arms, and Aunt Bai was gently stroking Ding An's hair. The atmosphere was warm and comfortable...

Xi'er Ling'er rubbed the medicine on her wound, Ding Zi also felt tired.

"Dangdangdang." The knock on the door made Xi'er, who was guarding the door, whisper immediately, "Who!"

"Benefactor, Xiao Ni is a nun in Baiyun Nunnery."

"I don't know it's so late, what's the matter with this holy lady?" Xi'er frowned and pushed open the door. There was a young nun of seventeen or eighteen years old standing outside the door, wearing a nun's robe and a nun's hat on her head. There is no panic in the expression, and there is no problem.

Ding Zi also woke up at this time, glanced at the little nun, nodded to Xi'er, Xi'er waited on her to get dressed, and the two followed the little nun out of the wing.

Walking outside the quiet courtyard, the little nun euphemistically expressed that Xi'er had to wait outside, and Ding Zi and the little nun opened the door to enter when the latter was worried and dissatisfied.

There are four people in the room, two sitting and two standing, all of them are women, Ding Zi looked at the people in the room with a faint smile on his lips, as expected...

"Amituofo, Mrs. Huiming, Mrs. Huijue, Madam is well." Ding Zi walked into the room and performed a Buddha ceremony, then stood not far from them.

"Benefactor Ding is very polite." Master Huiming returned the gift with an amiable smile, and then stood quietly at the side. Master Huijue sat at the tea table separated from the Queen Mother, and one stood behind each of them, four pairs of eyes. Looking over with a judging expression, it seemed that even the sound of breathing was barely audible in the room.

The silence was palpitating, but the expressions in those four pairs of eyes became more and more enthusiastic. Huijue and Huiming were fine, no matter what, they were all monks, kindness comes first.

Nanny Liu's shrewd and sharp eyes were like a sharp sword trying to pierce people's hearts, extremely ruthless, the empress dowager next to her just looked over lightly, but the demeanor around her was the one that attracted the most attention, her eyes only moved once, With an invisible momentum.

With such different eyes, anyone would be shocked, but Ding Zi just stood with lowered eyebrows and sideways eyes, quietly waiting for them to attack.

After a moment of silence, the Empress Dowager held the teacup lightly, took a sip, and said: "When we met, you told about the efficacy of Zi Yanhua, and then discussed some prescriptions with Master Huijue. You must be someone who knows medicine."

"Mrs. Hui, when I was a child, I liked to read some miscellaneous books. I happened to read a medical book that I was very interested in. There was this purple flower in it. The little thing in the little girl's stomach can't be compared with the kind-hearted and good-hearted Master Huijue who has excellent medical skills. "Ding Zi replied modestly, Mrs. Huijue is a well-known figure in Daqi, but she is just the daughter of the minister's mansion, no matter how great she is, she can't compare herself to this high branch for no reason. Confidence is good, but ignorance is a crime.

"It's good to have this kind of modesty, but it's hypocritical if it's too much." The queen mother said again, with a bit of indifference in her tone. Still bowed his head and said nothing.

The queen mother glanced at her again, a smile appeared in the corner of her eyes, and she slowly raised her hand: "You said that Zi Yanhua that day, but did you say it on purpose because you knew my identity?"

Ding Zi finally raised his head, his eyes were clear and unwavering, reflecting the majestic figure of the Queen Mother, and he knelt on the ground: "Mrs. Hui, my little girl is usually very interested in miscellaneous books, but I just happened to know the strangeness of this flower and kept it in my heart. The book records the characteristics of the Zi Yanhua, the little girl thinks the fragrance is a bit similar, but she just mentioned it unintentionally, and it’s all because the little girl has a quick mouth and disturbed the madam, please don’t take it to heart.” Ding Zi has always insisted on calling her the queen mother’s wife, and He has never admitted the purpose of telling Zi Yanhua, one is to save face for the Queen Mother.

Let me just ask, the Empress Dowager, the most honorable woman in Daqi!To be poisoned and murdered in the imperial palace is not only a major event of extermination, but also a shame in the Queen Mother's heart.She lives in the harem, but people are playing tricks under their noses. Isn't this a shame to her ability and means!
Even if Ding Zi said it, so what if she saved the queen mother, she would not only have no merit but would be guilty if she made a bad one, and would even bring disaster to the whole family if she made a bad one.

Second, Ding Zi also stated that she did not know the identity of the queen mother at first, and she might be able to guess it later, but at that time she was really focused on saving people!

The Queen Mother nodded in satisfaction, and Liu Mama behind her also took a deep look at Ding Zi, as if re-examining.

Master Huiming chanted "Amituofo" again, then closed his eyes, and silently recited the Buddha's words, as if he had entered into a trance, Master Huijue's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ding Zi even more enthusiastically.

"You Huigen has that kind of humility, she is a good seedling, the master is not short of a closed disciple, what do you think of her?" The queen mother turned to look at Huijue and said.

Hui Jue nodded again and again: "It looks pretty good, but it still needs to pass some tests. Tanni has been a doctor all his life, so the apprentices he accepts will naturally go to the next level. What do you think?"

As Mrs. Huijue said, she has been a doctor all her life, and she has a good reputation for her medical skills. I don't know how many of these people come to seek medical treatment and apprenticeship.But most of those people are for fame and fortune, not to mention most of them are not interested in medicine, and she doesn't like the talent at all, so she simply doesn't accept any of them.

If Ding Zi is accepted now, although it will help her medical skills, it will also cause trouble for her. She will never admit that Ding Zi was accepted until Guan Jian, and Ding Zi can't tell the outside world!

"It is my daughter's honor to be able to study medical skills with Mrs. Huijue. I also thank Madam for her affirmation of my daughter. I will always remember this kindness!" Ding Zi knelt down again, kowtowed to the two, Huiming handed After a cup of tea, Ding Zi knelt and rubbed in front of Hui Jue, raising the cup with both hands to offer tea.

"Fragrant, comfortable, it's a good cup of tea." Huijue took the tea, drank it with a smile on his face, and commented happily, looking at Ding Zi lovingly with his eyes, obviously very happy with Ding Zi's intelligence and understanding, and in his heart I am very happy to accept this apprentice.

The queen mother also nodded at Ding Zi with a faint smile. Ding Zi understood what she wanted to say, and she could understand what she was thinking. Such smart women are rare, and she is only thirteen years old. I don't know what it will be like.

Thinking of the palace, the Empress Dowager's eyes flashed a heavy shadow, she became more courageous, and now she has reached out to her, good, good!
When Ding Zi mentioned Zi Yanhua, the queen mother had a good idea, but she didn't say no, because she involved too much, and then she asked to see Huijue, Huijue also said that it was fortunate that the contact time was not long, and it was not harmful to the body. It's okay, she is relieved.But this matter can't be dealt with, this Zi Yanhua was sent to the palace by more than one person, I really want to find out, these people are all responsible, and some of them she still doesn't want to move now, but, hum!She is not afraid of another chaos in the harem!
After Ding Zi offered tea, Huiming took her to chat about Buddhist rituals. Ding Zi smiled and discussed, which surprised Huiming.

This Huijue and Huiming, one emphasizes medicine, the other emphasizes Buddha, Baiyun Nunnery would not be where it is today without anyone, and Ding Zi's heated discussion with Huiming shows her research on Buddhism.
