Lin Lan felt a sense of meeting someone who understood her, she came from the future, and in her eyes, the method of treating smallpox was outdated and old-fashioned. In this era, it was unheard of and shocking to the world. Even her senior fellow apprentices, who had been with her for many years, expressed their doubts about this method in a very tactful way. And yet, Hua Wenbo, someone she had only met a few times and had a serious conversation with once, still belonged to the category of strangers, was willing to believe her. Lin Lan sighed: "I'm afraid I won't be able to go, otherwise, this time I could have fought side by side with you."
Listening to these words, the regret that had been suppressed in Huawen Bai's heart for a long time burst out like water breaking through ice. He let out an almost inaudible sigh and lamented not meeting earlier, not recognizing each other sooner. He also smiled wryly, with a hint of jest in his tone: "Not going would be a bit of a waste, if my experiment succeeds, all the credit will go to me."
Lin Lan smiled and said, "I don't mind, as long as I can save a few more people."
Hua Wen heard this and stood up straight, took a step back, bowed deeply: "Madam Li's righteousness is as high as the sky, I, Hua, admire you sincerely."
Lin Lan's face turned red, and this was just the experience of her predecessors, but it was said through her mouth. This is a good way to say it, and if not, it would be plagiarism of ancient people's intellectual property rights. Speaking of which, she had already plagiarized quite a few things, such as Bao Ning Wan, Liu Shen Wan, and Huo Xiang Wan, etc., and was preparing to use these things to make a small fortune, but this could also be considered as benefiting the common people. Although it couldn't be called a life-saving medicine, it was still relieving the suffering of the common people, wasn't it? Although the reason was very sufficient and the thought was very proper, Lin Lan still couldn't help but blush when facing Hua Wenbo's serious expression showing his respect. She smiled awkwardly and said: "Brother Hua is overpraising me, actually Brother Hua is the one with true benevolence and excellent medical skills, I really admire him."
A horse-drawn carriage passed by the Long Pavilion, and the person in the carriage slowly lowered the curtain. The slender eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and a hint of doubt flickered in the clear eyes. The woman in the pavilion looked like Li's second wife, and the man was someone she knew - the famous genius doctor from the capital, Huawen Bo, the young master of De Ren Tang.
"Miss, don't worry, the mistress's headache is an old illness, it will be fine in a few days..." The maid comforted.
Pei Zhiyuan came back to his senses and said calmly, "Every time Father and Mother quarrel, Mother gets a headache. What I'm worried about is what they're going to make a fuss about this time."
The two people in the pavilion did not notice the occasional passing carriage. Hua Wenbo listened to Lin Lan's flattery, lowered his head and smiled slightly, then raised his eyes again, with a hint of apology: "Originally, I wanted to personally attend the opening of Linji to congratulate."
Lin Lan smiled: "As long as you mean well, it's all right, let alone going to do something serious."
Huawen Bo nodded slightly: "When the time comes, Wen Yuan will send a gift on my behalf." His speech slowed down: "I... am about to set off, the convoy is still waiting for me up ahead."
Lin Lan said quietly: "This time in Shaanxi, Brother Hua must take good care of himself, don't just focus on saving others, only by taking care of yourself can you save more people."
"Hua bowed his head in respect: 'The words of Lady Li are etched in Hua's heart.'"
Hua Wenbo saw off Hua Wenyu, and Hua Wenyu escorted Lin Lan back to the Li residence. As they parted ways, she asked: "Madam Li, what auspicious time will Lin's pharmacy open?"
Lin Lan said with a smile: "Whenever you come, I welcome you."
Wen Yuan smiled and said: "My elder brother had solemnly instructed me, I must not lose courtesy."
Lin Lan smiled and said: "That's exactly right, it's auspicious to open for business, get married, raise the beam and tile the roof, the god of wealth is flourishing."
"Alright, I'll be there exactly on time."
Lin Lan returned to the mansion and asked the gatekeeper, "Has Second Young Master come back?"
"The gatekeeper said: 'He has already returned and is discussing matters with the master in the study.'"
What's there to discuss again? Making Li Ze seem so busy, as if he has a lot of national and people's worries. Lin Lan snorted with laughter and returned to the Luoxia Pavilion.
Li Mingyun didn't come back until after a while.
The imperial court has appointed the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Jiang, as the Pacification Commissioner to go to Shaanxi. The first batch of medical officers has set off, and the necessary materials are being prepared. There is nothing else for him to do.
Lin Lan felt a little regretful, this trip was tough, but it was indeed a good opportunity.
"What a pity," Lin Lan sighed.
Li Mingyu looked at her sideways: "What's there to regret? If you want to make a name for yourself, there are many ways to do so." He patted his leg and said: "Come over here, I've got some good news to share with you."
Lin Lan moved over, lacking enthusiasm: "What's there to be happy about?"
Li Mingyu hugged her slender waist, smelling the faint scent of orchid on her body, and chuckled: "My dear, I've been promoted."
Lin Lan's spirit shook, and he happily asked: "What official position did you get promoted to?"
Li Mingyun leaned against her chin with his forehead, rubbing: "Last time when organizing the imperial edict, the emperor was very satisfied. With Pei University Scholar's repeated recommendation, the emperor took advantage of this personnel adjustment to promote me as a Hanlin Academy scholar and let me be in charge of selecting the Jijishi for this year."
Lin Lanxi said: "Hanlin Academy scholars are of the fifth rank, after all."
"Is it? Do you like it?" Li Mingyun smiled and looked at her.
Lin Lan kissed him on the forehead: "Of course I like it, my husband is so promising, and I have face too."
Li Ming Yun frowned: "Is it just a reward for one kiss?"
Lin Lan pouted and gave him a sideways glance: "What else do you want?"
Li Mingyun's hands weren't behaving as they slid up along her waistline, his soft lips covering her small, delicate earlobe. The warm breath and low, husky voice were full of fatal temptation: "Isn't the bathtub at home too small? I specially ordered one that's big enough for two people to bathe together... want to try it out tonight?"
Lin Lan's heart skipped a beat, her face flushed with a fiery cloud, she pushed him away and said with a blush: "It was you who thought it was small, I didn't say that."
Li Mingyun pretended to think seriously for a moment and said, "This sentence is indeed true."
Lin Lan was annoyed and embarrassed, last time she took a bath, he insisted on coming together, she was afraid of being laughed at by Yin Liu and others, so she pushed it away saying the bathtub was too small. Then, with righteous words: "The emperor has just promoted officials, hoping to share more worries for the monarch, now is the autumn of many things, the emperor's worries are probably not sleeping well at night, not worrying about the country and the people, but thinking about spring colors everywhere, should be called The emperor demoted his official position, closed and introspected."
Li Mingyun was speechless and lost his smile: "If it's said that way, who would still want to be an official? It's better to become a monk. As for being an official, first and foremost one must be human. The harmony between husband and wife is the normal way of human relationships, the heavenly principle and earthly righteousness. Confucius said 'Eating, drinking, men and women, these are the great desires that exist in people.' And it was also said 'Food and sex are human nature', even saints value them, so what you just said is a fallacious argument."
Lin Lan poked his forehead: "This head, it's time to go and pay respects to grandma." She was most annoyed at debating with him, opening and closing her mouth, and she knew that he would circle around and eventually return to the same topic. Women usually ended up losing when discussing this kind of thing with men, Lin Lan thought to herself, it's better to have some self-awareness.
Li Mingyu burst out laughing, hugged her waist tightly, and pressed her soft body against his own. He gently kissed her rosy cheeks: "I guess the old witch is going to be furious again."
Lin Lan thought of Yu Lian and smiled slyly: "Maybe the old witch will give us a generous gift."
Li Ming snorted: "Her giving me gifts is no different from a weasel giving gifts to a chicken for a hundred years, I don't dare accept."
"What if they insist on giving it to me?" Lin Lan asked with ulterior motives?
Li Mingyun narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "Did you hear some rumors?"
Lin Lan said with a smile: "You'll know when the time comes." Taking advantage of his distraction, Lin Lan got up and went to the lotus mirror to tidy her hair.
Li Ming Yun couldn't help but smile wryly: "Ah, you just like playing dumb riddles with me."
"What riddle can stump someone as clever as you?" Lin Lan chuckled.
The atmosphere in the house is filled with laughter and joy, warm and harmonious.
Li Jingxian explained the matter of Ming Rong's promotion: "Ming Rong entered the Hanlin Academy for only three months, and then jumped from a sixth-rank compiler to a fifth-rank Hanlin scholar. This is due to the emperor's great benevolence, the protection of our ancestors, and also Ming Rong's own efforts."
The old lady laughed heartily, with deep wrinkles on her face: "Mingyun has always been cautious in doing things, and this is quite like him."
Ming was already a bit nervous when he saw his father, and after hearing that Ming Yun had been promoted three times in a row, he felt even more uneasy, as if sitting on pins and needles.
Han glanced at Ming Ze, who was hanging his head in shame, and smiled: "The emperor highly values the old master, and naturally also holds Ming Yun in high regard."
Ding Ruoyan's mouth curved into a subtle smile, her eyes calm as water, warm and gentle as a painting. The bitterness in her heart was known only to herself, not that she wanted to belittle Ming Ze, but it was the truth - even if Ming Ze had four legs, he still couldn't catch up with Ming Yun's talent. Everyone said that Ming Ze had become diligent now, but in fact, Ming Ze was just pretending to study, using this book as a prop. Qing Gui told her that Ming Ze had taken the covers off the Four Books and Five Classics and put them on "The Peach Blossom Spring", and she took advantage of his absence to take a look - inside were all sorts of vulgar and indecent phrases... She had completely lost hope in Ming Ze.
Li Jingxian, although increasingly disgusted with Han, had to admit that his flattery was still quite comfortable, like drinking iced tea on a June day, making every pore on his body feel refreshed. He chuckled and humbly said: "This time it's really thanks to Ming Yun himself, the sacred teachings he compiled are in line with the emperor's will, the dragon's face is delighted, and several university scholars from the Hanlin Academy have also strongly recommended him, I didn't even get a word in edgewise."
"Needless for you to mention it, sir. Your face is at stake here. Who wouldn't give you some respect?"
The old lady couldn't help but hear that Han's intention was to suppress Ming Rong, which she didn't like at all. To her, both Ming and Ming Rong were her dear grandsons, and seeing Ming Rong make progress made her very happy as a grandmother.
The old lady smiled slightly: "No need to rush, wait until next year's high school entrance exam, there will be plenty of opportunities."
Mrs. Han's face turned red with embarrassment as the old lady saw through her thoughts, and she defended herself: "The daughter-in-law is not anxious, the daughter-in-law is truly happy for Mingyun, happy for Master Li, this is a glory for our Li family."
The old lady smiled: "This is reasonable, tomorrow go to the ancestral hall to offer incense to our ancestors, bless Mingyun's career to be smooth and successful, and bless Mingze to pass the high school exam smoothly."
