The Path of the Pharmacist's Favorite Concubine

Chapter 157 To Yangzhou

After getting off the boat, the officials from Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River all wore official uniforms and waited in line at the pier, and prepared sedan chairs.

"We greet His Highness, and our empress."

"Get up."

Yangzhou Inspector took a step forward, "Your Highness, I have prepared a house, and please move back to rest first."

"Let's go to the post station, settle down first, I have something to talk about tomorrow."

"Yes. A sedan chair is prepared, please, Your Majesty."

The governor of Yangzhou didn't dare to say too much.

Huilan doesn't care about these things, it has nothing to do with her and doesn't care about it. Li Chengze is still sure about this matter, and he has checked many clues before.

They boarded the sedan chair and drove the group to the post station. In order to prevent Li Chengze from being unwilling to live in the official residence, the post station was also arranged in advance, and all staff were ready.

When she arrived at the post station, Huilan looked around and nodded, seeing that some officials were still pulling Li Chengze to talk, she became a little impatient.

"Where is my room? I'm tired and going to rest. Let's talk slowly."

He kept on flattering without saying a single serious word, wasting my time.

"I'll let someone take my mother there. This is the maid of the post station. She came here specially to serve my mother. Just ask her to take you there."

"Ah."

Huilan glanced at the girl, walked straight to the backyard without even asking her name.

"Your Highness, settle down and rest for a while, and we will meet again tomorrow."

"Master Zhang, walk slowly, everyone, please walk slowly, forgive me for being rude."

"Your Highness, you are too polite. I will take my leave."

All the officials left one after another. Li Chengze ordered Cao Heng and Sun Bin to pack up their things and carry them into the house before heading towards the backyard.

The post station is not divided into front and back yards, four-entry houses, and the repairs are also very elegant, specially for officials who come to work from afar to rest and live for a short time.The premises are almost all the same.

If the prince is going to visit Yangzhou in person, he will have to re-decorate. The room is divided into inner and outer rooms, and the screens and decorations have been specially re-arranged. It looks more elegant, and it is indeed very careful.

Huilan has already cleaned up and changed into a high-waist skirt made of carmine red satin and gold gauze, looking elegant and charming, very beautiful and moving.

"Come back, they finished talking nonsense."

Huilan burned a pot of spiritual tea by herself, and set out some low-level spiritual fruits to drink tea and eat fruits alone in the room.

Li Chengze sat down, twisted a fruit and threw it into his mouth. It was sweet and sour, and he nodded in satisfaction.

Huilan poured him a cup of tea before he said, "Let's go, come tomorrow, the cooks here must have been replaced by them, let them prepare what you want to eat, don't let the maids they send in , just let Lilac take care of you."

"Okay, don't worry, I still don't know this. After a month of boating, you are tired. I will ask Lilac to fetch water for you to wash."

"Okay. This fruit is good and delicious."

"This is one of the few fruits that martial arts practitioners can eat, and I can't even eat the rest. If you like me, there are more."

"No, these are enough. Aren't you going to help me break through? Do you want acupuncture?"

Li Chengze really wanted to know what it was like to break through the first level of Body Tempering.

"Oh, you rest overnight, I will help you break through tomorrow, let's talk about it at night."

"it is good."

"I've seen the strength of Cao Heng and Sun Bin. They can still try to break through and protect you. While I'm outside, I'll do it all by myself. They need to adjust the dosage of the Body Tempering Ointment."

"Okay, let's forget about acupuncture. You can also take medicine."

Li Chengze chose medicine without hesitation, otherwise Huilan would give acupuncture to other men.

Huilan shook her head and laughed, "Okay, let them come over this afternoon, and I'll check the pulse."

"can."

Li Chengze washed his face and helped Huilan pack her things. She didn't bring many things, just a medicine box on the bright side, which contained necessary things such as acupuncture and moxibustion.

"Your medicine box is different from others'."

"Well, this wood is a kind of spiritual wood, which has the miraculous effect of preventing insects and rot, and it has been specially refined. It has a relatively large capacity and has several hidden compartments. It was used when I was low in cultivation."

"What kind of acupuncture is this, it seems to be made of jade?"

When Li Chengze looked through her medicine box, she found that her acupuncture was different from other people's. There were ordinary gold needles and jade needles.

"This is a set of 36 needles, nine of which are warm jade needles, which I use to treat diseases. The remaining 27 needles are ice needles, which are made of thousand-year-old cold jade and other materials. A murderous weapon."

This set of ice needles has been with her for many years, and it is already at the stage of her mind moving freely. She has been thinking about whether to choose the knife or the needle after the alchemy is formed, and she has never thought about it.

"Weapon, for you who understand the eight meridians, the effect of using the golden needle is twice the result with half the effort. How to use it, show me how to use it, I haven't seen you do it yet."

"I'll show you."

Huilan smiled and waved Su's hand, and the ice needles flew up, arranged according to the gossip pattern, and stood still in the air facing Li Chengze, showing a bit of cold light.

With a light wave of her hand, the ice needles formed a protective shield around herself, ready to attack the enemy at any time. The ice needles were directed at the acupuncture points and meridians on Li Chengze's body.

"Hey! It's amazing."

Li Chengze was dumbfounded, and nodded happily.

"This set of ice needles cost a lot of money and are made with a lot of precious materials. They have been with me for many years, and they are very easy to use. So don't worry, I still have the ability to protect myself."

Another feature of this ice needle is its translucent shape, which is very suitable for sneak attacks.

"You have the power to protect yourself, and I feel more at ease. If you want to do this, you can give Cao Heng and Sun Bin acupuncture. I still have a lot of thoughts about them, and I want to cultivate them well."

"Yes, the two of them are good seedlings in martial arts, and their internal skills are also solid and profound. They have a solid foundation, which is not bad."

Huilan nodded.

"Then it's hard work for you. I'll let them cooperate with you."

"it is good."

"Get tired, take a break. I'll ask them to prepare some Yangzhou specialties. Let's taste them together in the afternoon. After a rest, we'll be busy tomorrow. I have to socialize and have no time to accompany you."

"It's okay, I can play by myself."

"Well, pay attention to safety, and bring enough people when you go out."

Li Chengze repeatedly told him to pay attention to safety.

He hugged Huilan and went to take a nap for a while, and he was still very tired from wandering on the boat.

In the afternoon, I walked around the post station. Huilan wanted to know about her residence and potential safety hazards, etc., and observed the terrain.This has been a habit developed over the years.

Cao Heng and Sun Bin came over in the afternoon.

"Your Highness."

"come in."

Li Chengze put down the book and asked the two of them to enter the house.

"Your Highness, what are your orders?"

Cao Heng clasped his fists and saluted and then spoke.

"That's right, Mrs. Xi's medical skills are excellent, and Mrs. Xi also cured my poison. Gu asked Mrs. to recuperate your health and help you go further."

Cao Heng and Sun Bin exchanged glances at Huilan. It was no surprise that she was good at medicine. As the prince's personal bodyguard, she grew up together. Her affection was different from the others, and she naturally knew many secrets.

"Thank you Madam Xi."

Cao Heng and Sun Bin quickly knelt down to thank them.

"Please hurry up, you are His Highness's bodyguards, protecting His Highness, and His Highness will benefit the most when you become stronger. Come, let me diagnose your pulse."

A silk thread was wrapped around Cao Heng's wrist, and Huilan auscultated silently.

"Xuansi pulse diagnosis, Lan'er, I haven't seen you show this hand before."

Li Chengze was also quite surprised, he just heard such a legend in the book, but no one has seen it, and he doesn't know if it is true.

"It's not a big deal. The pulse is trembling. After the silk thread is tied, there will be a slight tremor. This requires training your perception ability, which is not a one-day job."

Perception ability is used in many ways. This is one of the training items since childhood, to tap the inner potential of children. As the number one cultivation family, the Ding family naturally has several secrets, especially the perfect set of training methods.
