After Picking Up the Lucky Girl, the Whole Village Became Prosperous Chapter 243

The next day, Yao Yuan and two imperial doctors came to check Dai Wang's pulse and confirmed that his health was stable, so he took Ying Bao back to the imperial pharmacy and took out the medicinal materials for her to prepare.

Yao Yuan is strongly requesting to watch this time when the medicine is being dispensed.

Yingbao also followed him and ordered several medicine boys to crush the medicine and boil it.

When it is almost cooked, quietly pour a little Wudingzhi into it, stir it into a thick paste, put it in a bowl and let it cool, then roll it into **** and wrap them in wax paper.

 On the other side, there is a medicine boy making a wax shell, which is also a hanging wax skin.

First heat and melt the wax in a pot. When the wax oil is reduced to a warm temperature, dip a wooden ball fixed on an iron support into the pot and dip it into the wax. Then take out the wooden ball and put it in cold water to solidify.

 After dipping in wax several times and cooling, until the wax skin reaches a certain thickness.

 Then use a knife to cut most of the wax skin outside the wooden ball, take out the wooden ball, put the pills wrapped in wax paper into the wax shell, seal it with wax, and iron the wax stem.

 Finally, the horn seal is heated, dipped in red mud, and the name of the medicine is stamped on the sealed area.

Yingbao was very interested in the tools for making wax shells, so he asked Yao Yuan to take a set away.

If you want to make pills for sale in the future, you must wrap each pill with a shell and stamp it with your own stamp. That would be grand.

Yao Yuanzheng was not stingy, and readily agreed to give her a set of tools for making wax leather, and also gave her several manuscripts of palace medicinal recipes.

Yingbao reciprocated the favor and gave him a small bottle of pills made by himself.

The content of Wudingzhi in these pills is much higher than that in the pills made on the spot.

Coming back from the Imperial Pharmacy, Ying Bao discovered that Xiao Chengjun could not live in the same place as before, but moved to the house next door to her, across the room from her.

 Chang Xiu brought the hedgehog back from the orchard and returned it to Ying Bao. "I obey your orders. I usually tie the hedgehog in the grass over there in the orchard so that no one can see it."

“Thank you, Sister Chang Xiu.” Yingbao took the hedgehog, put it on the ground, and took out a few melon seeds for it to eat.

These melon seeds were given by the medicine boy at the Royal Pharmacy. They said they were brine with salt and then fried. They are very salty and fragrant.

Yingbao thought the melon seeds were too salty and didn't dare to eat more, so she just used them to feed the hedgehogs.

The hedgehog didn't mind it either and ate it one by one.

In the evening, Chang Xiu went to the imperial kitchen to get food, while Ying Bao sneaked out of the compartment and came to Xiao Chengjun's house.

At this moment, Xiao Chengjun should go to the Qilin Hall to accompany the king. There is no one in the room.

Yingbao threw a handful of melon seeds under the bed, threw in a piece of stone honey, and then pushed the little hedgehog in.

 Then he ran back to his room and sat on the Arhat couch. Wait quietly for Chang Xiu to come back with the food box.

 After having dinner and washing up, Yingbao asked Chang Xiu to sleep on the inside side of the bed. She slept on the outside of the bed, closing her eyes and listening to what was going on outside.

Xiao Chengjun came back after having dinner at Dai Wang's place. He asked the servants to check inside and outside, and then he lay down to rest.

That day he was frightened. When he slept until late at night, he heard someone coughing. He sent people to look for him but couldn't find anything.

　　Every night after that, he asked his chamberlain to stand vigil outside, otherwise he would not dare to sleep a wink.

This went on for several days, and the chamberlains began to complain and stayed away from him whenever they saw him, for fear of being sent to watch him again.

 Fortunately, he didn't hear any strange noises these days, and Xiao Chengjun gradually felt relieved. There was no need for anyone to guard the door all night, but the lights must be burning in the house.

 Xiao Chengjun lay down and read for a while, then fell asleep.

When the palace guests saw that he was sleeping soundly, they blew out several lamps except for two, and then went to rest outside.

 While sleeping until midnight, Xiao Chengjun was suddenly awakened by several coughs.

He frowned and listened carefully. What he heard was incredible. The coughing sound was not coming from outside, but coming from under his bed. Xiao Chengjun screamed in fright, jumped up from the bed, and ran out of the house barefoot. Shouting loudly: "Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"

 Two chamberlains ran over carrying lanterns and asked hurriedly: "Mr. Xiao, what happened again?"

“There is a ghost in here... Go and see quickly...” Xiao Chengjun was so frightened that his teeth chattered and his whole body shook like chaff.

 The two chamberlains looked at each other and did not dare to go in.

"Why don't you, Mr. Xiao Lang, go to the Qilin Hall first, and let's find a few people to come and have a look." A chamberlain said.

Xiao Chengjun nodded without hesitation and ran towards Qilin Hall with the support of a chamberlain.

The other chamberlain didn't dare to stay. He was about to walk back with a lantern when he saw a small head popping out from the side compartment, which startled him.

“Hey, young man, you scared our family to death.” When the chamberlain saw that it was Ying Bao, he patted his chest and said, “You should go back to the house quickly. Mr. Xiao said that his house is haunted again.”

Ying Bao blinked and asked, "Why is it always haunted? Is it because he has been in contact with someone recently?"

The chamberlain hurriedly hissed: "Young man, please don't talk nonsense. Recently, Mr. Xiao is always with the king."

"The king is the grandson of Phoenix, and he is in good health now. It is the time when his yang energy is at its peak. It would be a good thing if Xiao Chengjun doesn't bring him down."

Yingbao said seductively: "Think about it again, who else has Xiao Chengjun been with recently?"

The chamberlain thought for a while, patted his forehead, and said mysteriously: "Our family knows that Xiao Langjun is always with the new palace maid recently. Our family also saw him taking the little palace maid to pick food in the orchard. Where's the lychee?”

Yingbao nodded: "That's right. Oh, go and ask someone to take a look."

The chamberlain nodded to Ying Bao and quickly ran to the front to call someone.

Ying Bao turned to Chang Xiu who had already gotten up and said, "Sister Chang, you stay here and I'll go take a look at Xiao Chengjun's room."

Chang Xiu said with a worried look on his face: "What are you doing there, young man? It's scary. Otherwise, Nu... Nu will accompany you."

"No, no, no, I don't believe there are ghosts in the world. There must be something wrong with Xiao Chengjun's head. Hey, he has been suspicious all day long, maybe he has become mad."

Ying Bao said as she ran towards Xiao Chengjun's house: "Sister Chang, please wait here. I'm going to see if there is any ghost inside."

Chang Xiu wanted to follow, but she was more afraid of ghosts and was so anxious that she ran around in circles.

Yingbao ran into the house and saw that the lights in the house were still on.

It seems that Xiao Chengjun was frightened before, but now he even sleeps with a light on.

Ying Bao quickly got under the bed, grabbed the rope around the hedgehog's leg, and dragged it out.

He ran out with the hedgehog and said to Chang Xiu: "There are no ghosts in his house at all. Come on, let's go back."

Chang Xiu followed Ying Bao back to the compartment, sat on the couch and stared at the little baby giving the hedgehog some water.

Ying Bao muttered: "Why are you running around at night? What if you are caught as a ghost?"

 The hedgehog drank the water and huddled up quietly.

Chang Xiu couldn't help but ask: "Ying Bao, did this hedgehog scare Xiao Langjun?"

"Shhh..." Yingbao said silently: "Sister Chang, please don't say that. If Xiao Chengjun blames us, we will all be left with nothing to eat."

Chang Xiu nodded repeatedly: "I don't talk nonsense."

Satisfied, Yingbao covered the hedgehog basket with a piece of cloth and climbed into bed again to sleep.
