Chapter 350: Do you have something on your mind?
emperor designated as his successor, that is a matter for the royal family, and has nothing to do with us!"The scene turned to gaze at the old matriarch. Although she didn't speak, her eyes clearly c...By this hour, Ye Wen had little time to sleep. He gave himself a quick spell to sharpen his mind, and before Master Li Yuan’s red light from sending them back dissipated, he also added a layer to Zhuai'er. 。The two master and servant immediately felt refreshed, their spirits much better than after a night's sleep. 。Now even Zhu'er doesn't need Ye Wenyan to explain, she can understand what's going on herself. She couldn't help but sigh repeatedly: "Sure enough, immortals are immortals, this coming and going is too convenient, sister, can you learn this trick" Ye Wenyan said that she couldn't learn it, not that she couldn't learn it, but that she truly couldn't. 。This kind of large-scale teleportation technique requires too much spiritual power. She couldn't even master it in her past life, let alone this one. 。Zhuier stuck out her tongue, indicating that she had overthought things. How could mortals learn the skills of immortals just by trying 。But she was still curious: “If an immortal marries a mortal, does the mortal also become an immortal Or is it a half-immortal Will your lifespan be as long as the Emperor’s, Sister Will you live forever, living for hundreds of years”
Night Wenyan pushed open the door and entered the room, lost in thought.
She also didn't know how long she could live, nor did she know if the shackles on them could be opened, or if human lifespans could return to normal. 。If she can't break through, I'm afraid even she won't be able to overcome a decade of barriers. 。"Can everyone on this continent only live to sixty" The house was warm, though she hadn't returned all night, Xiangdong had still burned charcoal 。Ye Wen sat by the brazier, roasting it while chatting with Zhuai'er. 。Zui'er also came over and after a moment thought: "It should be like this, if there was a place that could make people live longer, wouldn't it cause chaos Not to mention other countries, Be Qi would definitely try to seize that land. The capital couldn't remain in Lin'an, but would have to be set up in that place." 。After all, if one wants to live a long life, the royal family is surely the first thing to consider. 。"That makes sense," Ye Wen said, "If the lifespan of all humans is confined to the North Shore of Wushenhai..." 。"Sister, what do you mean" Zhu'er listened, a bit startled. "Our lifespans are being imprisoned But... who could be powerful enough to control how long people can live The King of Hell Or perhaps a true immortal from the heavens"Ye Wenyan remained silent for a long moment, then shook her head. "I don't know, but it's certain that humans shouldn't only be able to live to sixty. I also don't believe that people on the other shores of the Endless Sea are limited to living only sixty years either." 。Perhaps only our North Shore is different from elsewhere. Since it's different, there must be a reason for it. 。I will definitely find the reason for this, and get back the lifespan humanity has lost. 。"
Zhu'er was already getting excited, even fantasizing that she could live for hundreds of years as well. "That way, I can serve you forever, and I won't have to keep worrying about finding new maids to train for you later." 。" You lost a few hundred years Even if you found them back, living well would just mean living a long life, and that also requires good health." 。Only immortals live without dying, it has nothing to do with us. 。" Though a little disappointed, the maidservant quickly composed herself. “Long life and good health is also good, it means I can spend more time with my mistress." 。Sixty years is simply too short. Whether it's family or servants, before we can get enough of them, they die. Just thinking about it makes my heart ache. 。She sniffed here and stood up, "Anyway, I'm not sleepy anymore. I'll go get that anesthetic powder. Sister promised the clinic we would send it back as soon as possible." 。"
Ye Wenyan improved the process of making maofei powder very quickly, because she had a lot of flowers in her storage bracelet. She didn't need to be as economical as when Dililong was turning over. " 。But she still couldn't let anyone know about the matter of using flowers to summon spirits, so Zhuai was sent out to guard the door, blocking everyone who wanted to enter the room. 。The anesthetic powder obtained from the clinic wasn't much, only filling three boxes, left with no more than seventy or eighty bottles. 。Ye Wenyan opened all the bottles and placed them on the ground. With a thought, two handfuls of plum blossoms appeared in his hands. 。Flowers scattered, a spirit awakened, and the knowledgeable bird flew out again. 。The bird happily circled her twice, then flapped its wings, scattering the fallen petals like little stars into each porcelain bottle. 。Perhaps the bird was in a good mood today and even offered a sealing technique as a parting gift before returning contentedly to Ye Wen's spiritual consciousness to continue sleeping. 。This whole process took less than half an incense stick's time, Ye Wen thought, other medicinal improvements should also be put on the agenda. 。Although she wasn't in charge of the medical care, since things had progressed to this point, she didn't mind providing some extra benefits for the people of Beiqi. She could consider it as a way to appease the people and stabilize the hearts of the masses for Quan Qingcheng. 。The improved anesthetic powder was given to Ji Rong, who then sent it back to the outer city clinic and personally handed it over to Shi Ruoxun. 。She also told Ji Rong that the pricing of all improved medicines would be set by Shi Ru Xun. Firstly, it was out of trust, and secondly, since she was cooperating with the Shi family, she couldn't decide everything herself. She had to give some power to the Shi family. As for whether the Shi family could live up to her trust, that would only be seen over time. 。Jie Rong took orders and went to the outer city, Xiang Dong then began preparing her breakfast. 。Ye Wen didn't have those rules of a big family where they eat in silence and never speak. Instead, he was willing to use meal times to ask people around him about what was going on. 。At first, the maidservants weren't used to it, but gradually they also followed their mistress and started to find their own things to talk about. 。Today, Xiangdong spoke to her, "Sister, this courtyard is truly too cramped. As a servant girl, I always want to create a proper kitchen area in the courtyard, but no matter how hard I search, there's no suitable room available." 。Now I have a stove, but it's only good for boiling water. If you want to cook a proper meal, it's a bit meager. 。And our courtyard doesn't even have a name. It feels so temporary. 。"As for this, Ye Wen didn't really care. It didn't matter whether there was a place to cook or not, and it didn't matter whether it had a name or not." 。This single-officer general's mansion couldn't bring her much sense of belonging. The other courtyards felt temporary, and she always felt like an outsider herself. 。It's better to see if there is any space along the edge that can be expanded. It would be best to expand right up against the wall of the courtyard and not think about moving to other courtyards. Moving back and forth is really troublesome. 。Besides, you know what's in the basement of this house. I can't just have someone dig it up again. 。Xiang Dong immediately nodded, “This servant also thinks so. We definitely can't move this room or courtyard, so let's expand outwards.” 。This courtyard's location is secluded, and the western side was originally larger. The servant had already calculated it: if one expands it in all directions—front, back, left, right—it could be twice the size of this current courtyard. 。But shouldn't we tell the Second Madam about this It wouldn't be good for us to handle it ourselves. 。"Okay," Ye Wen nodded, "I'll go and greet the old lady in a while. If I see the second madam, I'll mention it to her." 。" Life at Fulu Courtyard was still quite miserable. The old lady could sit up now, but her spirits were still low. " 。Especially whenever he saw that big tree in the courtyard, his heart would pound like it was going to jump out of his mouth. 。Now she sees a tree and thinks there's a ghost in the yard. She goes back to her room at night and thinks there's a ghost there too. Now it's early morning, Jun Tao comes into the room to greet her. Her illness is almost gone and she can serve the old lady again. 。As soon as Old Madam saw Jun Tao, she remembered that she had been frightened and confused with Jun Tao. So she didn't want to see her at all. 。Jun Tao only went out, and the house was left with Meidu to accompany Mrs. Tang. 。Seeing the old madam like this, Tang shi took the opportunity to ask: “Sister, you wouldn’t be hiding something in your heart, would you There’s an old saying that goes, ‘a hidden poison is more dangerous than an open one.’ Why don’t you tell me what’s on your mind It might feel better once it’s out.” 。The old madam’s eyes narrowed. Regardless of her fear, upon hearing this from Madam Tang, her vigilance was still heightened. 。"What do you want to hear" she asked Tang, "What ghosts do you think I could have in my heart" Tang's acting was still very good. Faced with the old lady's question, she immediately put on a look of utter innocence and exclaimed loudly, "How would I know what ghosts you have in your heart Isn't this just talking to each other here"The old lady snorted coldly and reminded her, "Remember at all times that you are the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. At any time, you must stand with me, and you cannot turn your elbow outward. That wouldn't benefit anyone." 。”
Tang Shi rolled her eyes, "My dear sister Xiu, you've always been so suspicious since you were young. You're over fifty now, and you still haven't changed You say I'm turning my elbow outward Where else could I turn it In this house, besides you, who else do I know I'm not close to those children, and even Jing Sheng, I haven't seen him many times these past few years. " 。Where should we turn I'm still doing this for you, my heart is still set on you. 。You, you're the one who keeps saying there are ghosts in this house, and I'm trying to help! Besides, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't pry into your business anyway. What's so scary about that 。Though it was said sarcastically, it was obviously more effective. The old woman's suspicion had been dispelled for the most part. 。Just listen to her sigh and tell Mrs. Tang, "It's not that I'm overly cautious, but life in the mansion is too difficult." 。"Look at me now, I am the respected mistress of a prestigious first-rank general's manor. My descendants are unfilial, who would believe that"
Tang Shi: "Whether they are filial or not is not something you should be considering right now. Just think about your illness and when it will get better. How much longer will there be ghosts haunting the house" 。If this matter is not resolved, your descendants will be of no use even if they are filial. 。The old lady was also helpless. This matter had to be resolved, but howFootsteps sounded outside, and soon a servant's voice reported: "Old Madam, Fourth Sister is here to pay her respects." 。The old lady shivered and blurted out, "Get her out!" Unfortunately, Ye Wen could not leave. She had even pushed the door open and entered. 。He immediately attacked Mrs. Tang as soon as he came in.oncubine of equal status. Then I will go home and let my mother come to your house to speak with you. 。“ The old madam frowned tightly, particularly annoyed that Xiao Shi dared to bring up the matter...
