Chapter 599 Searching for a Missing Old Man
But such a person, she had never heard of!
Opened again to read carefully, the more I read, the more I feel shocked, originally thought it was a few pieces of sheet music, but in fact, it is only a few paragraphs of a piece, the last section is not completed, the whole piece becomes a copy of a mutilation.
Fingers involuntarily hooked in the air a few times, as if there was a zither right in front of him, and after playing a few times, and then thinking carefully for a while, he continued to play in the air again.
Yu Dong saw her wholeheartedly devoted to the score, knowing that her own young lady especially loves this kind of score, at that moment no longer say anything, quietly watching Qu Mo Ying reading and thinking, while playing empty shells.
The carriage went all the way there, and did not rush back to the house, Qu Mo Ying previously instructed the carriage to go to the drugstore, the wife’s recent health is not good, to the drugstore to see if there is a suitable good medicinal herbs, first prepare some.
Good herbs, too, can be hard to come by.
The carriage stopped in front of an apothecary store, Yu Dong looked out of the carriage window at the store’s main door, and seeing that her own young lady was still immersed in her silent playing, she had to speak up and say, “Young lady, we’re here!”
Qu Mo Ying returned to his senses, nodded, put down the book in his hands, and said, “Let’s go!”
Didn’t read it carefully, really didn’t know, now she is really love it, this book is still really very much to her liking, was the old Duke of the country specially looking for it to give to her?
Qu Mo Ying got off the carriage and raised her eyes to see that it was just the right coincidence! It was actually Huaji Hall, and what was even more coincidental was actually seeing Wei King Pei Qingmin in front of the door.
He led a servant dressed as a boy, walking inside with his hands behind his back, when he suddenly stopped and looked behind him, right into the path of Qu Mo Ying, who had only just gotten off the carriage.
Pei Qingmin stopped and looked over with a smile.
Qu Mo Ying had to step forward and give a sideways salute, raising his eyes to look at his clothes that did not show his status, and only said in a low voice, “Greetings, Your Highness!”
“Come in!” Pei Qingmin nodded and Gu turned to enter Huaji Hall.
Qu Mo Ying followed helplessly.
Seeing them come in one after the other, one of Huaji Tang’s fellows hurriedly greeted them, and the chamberlain who followed Pei Qingmin, shook his hand at the fellow who came over.
The fellow eloquently turned around to greet the other customer who had entered.
Pei Qingmin was in front, Qu Mo Ying had to follow behind, going to a house on one side, Pei Qingmin sat down in the middle, Qu Mo Ying went up and bowed again.
“Fourth Miss Qu, please take a seat.” Pei Qingmin smiled and pointed to the chair on one side.
Qu Mo Ying sat down, and a fellow turned around from the back of the room, brought tea, and silently retreated again.
Qu Mo Ying looked at the room, the room looked like a simple clinic, there was a medicine box by the window, the smell of medicine in the room was very strong, in front of the book case where Pei Qing Min was sitting, there was also a brocade stool, and on the book case there was only a simple medical equipment such as medical pillows.
“Your Highness, King Wei, has something to look for my daughter?” Qu Mo Ying retracted her gaze and asked.
“What exactly happened in the palace yesterday?” Pei Qingmin didn’t hide it either, and turned his head sideways and coughed lowly twice, his face slightly pale, “These past few days, the king has been unwell, and hasn’t been to the court, nor has he gone to the palace.”
This is the explanation for why he didn’t know what was going on.
Yu Dong, who was standing behind Qu Mo Ying, had his head lowered and his complexion slightly tightened.
“My daughter is not too clear.” Qu Mo Ying shook her head, she didn’t believe that this King of Wei was really ignorant, even if he was sick and weak, which one of the emperors that could survive, which one Qu Mo Ying didn’t dare to underestimate.
“The matter of going to the Great Compassion Temple is also unclear?” Pei Qingmin asked with a smile and a hint of curiosity.
A person of his stature naturally knew that the thing enshrined above the Great Compassion Temple was the spiritual seat of the Yuan Empress, so to say that this was ignorance was a huge discount.
“Not very clear, just worshipped.” Qu Mo Ying continued to shake her head, the color of her eyes under the veil of her eyes was as pale as water, but they slightly rippled.
“Fourth Miss Qu doesn’t know anything? Uncle Wang didn’t say anything?” Pei Qingmin became curious and his smile grew gentler.
He was originally handsome, and his sickly appearance had a harmless gentleness to it, so even if he asked a little too much, he didn’t make people feel threatened.
“What does Your Highness want to know?” Qu Mo Ying raised her eyes and asked.
This question was too straight, Pei Qingmin smiled, “Fourth Miss Qu, this king is just curious, just happened to meet the fourth miss Qu, casually asked, the fourth miss Qu won’t care about this king such a sick and weak person, right?”
“My daughter wouldn’t dare!” Qu Mo Ying faintly said, her expression subdued.
“What does Fourth Miss Qu want to buy when she arrives here today?” Pei Qingmin smiled and changed to a lighter topic.
“I want to see if there are any suitable and good medicinal herbs to prepare some in the mansion.” Qu Mo Ying replied.
“Then coincidentally, there are indeed some good herbs that Fourth Miss Qu can take a look at.” Pei Qingmin said, nodding to the chamberlain behind him, who went out and commanded, and in a short while, two fellows brought in several kinds of herbs.
It was placed on the table in front of Pei Qing Min.
“Fourth Miss Qu take a look to see if it fits!” Pei Qingmin laughed, raising his hand slightly, signaling Qu Mo Ying to check for herself.
Qu Mo Ying stood up, walked to the front of the bookcase, picked up the medicinal herbs piece by piece to check up, actually every piece is very good, has been compared to the House collection, in the past days to meet one or two kinds has been rare, now actually see so many pieces, pursed cherry lips, slightly relaxed down, the corner of the lips slightly curved.
With so many, she didn’t need them, and picked through them again, picking out a few that were slightly less vintage and placing them on the other side.
“Your Highness, is it okay to pick these?” Qu Mo Ying finished picking and looked up at Pei Yu Min, asking.
“Fourth Miss Qu should also be a good doctor for a long time!” Pei Qingmin laughed, his body lazily leaning back, his appearance was quite a bit like Pei Yuanjun.
It was just that Pei Yuanjun made this movement with more than a few moments of lethargy, and this King of Wei under his eyes looked a few moments sicker.
“After being sick for so long, one will always know some commonly used medicinal herbs.” Qu Mo Ying said with a smile, these are indeed commonly used herbs, and the elderly generally use them, they should have been selected when they were sent over, “All these good herbs were bought by my daughter, there is no harm done, right?”
“It’s not a problem, there are still quite a few in the pharmacy.” Pei Qingmin waved his hand and said, “Consider this king and Fourth Miss Qu a good karma.”
At these words, Qu Mo Ying’s face slightly reddened, knowing that he was talking about her and Pei Yuanjun, fortunately there was an eye veil blocking it, and she would not reveal this shyness in front of the people, and she looked blithely sideways with a salute,”Then, I thank Your Majesty on behalf of my family’s father.”
It was meant to be understood that the reason why Pei Qing Min treated her generously was because of Qu Zhi Zhen’s sake.
Is he really unaware of this? Pei Qingmin smiled and waved his hand, “Fourth Miss Qu, be my guest!”
Qu Mo Ying gave another frank salute and left with Yu Dong’s slender footsteps, without asking one more word or explaining much, and everything he did was without the slightest mistake.
Pei Qingmin watched her back with interest, his light colored lips hooked, his own initial opinion was really preconceived, this Fourth Miss Qu was not a stupid person, and even had a few more points of frankness and composure than the average lady of the world.
Or maybe it would be nice to have such a ute princess!
At first their own emotions to come also inexplicable, inexplicable not used to her, now I think it is ridiculous, in fact, any woman in their own hearts are the same, a metastasizing people, where so much to see, not used to!
Is it what is gone, what is no longer there, that one returns to?
No one can afford to live up to that.
Smile slowly become cold, no longer have a trace of temperature, the eyes fall, only a faint pain …
“Your Highness, Miss Cousin is here!” A fellow hurriedly came in.
“Let her come in!” Pei Qingmin said indifferently, a hint of warmth slowly appearing in the bottom of his eyes, but it only looked like it.
“Greetings cousin!” Zhu Yan’er came in with a delicate smile on her face, seeing Pei Qingmin’s eyes light up, she hurriedly saluted, walking a bit too fast, her white forehead saw sweat, “Cousin, I was originally going to go to the royal residence to look for you, I didn’t think I’d see your carriage come over, that’s exactly the right coincidence, and it saves a lot of time.”
“What is it, so urgent?” Pei Qingmin asked.
“Cousin, I found someone.” Zhu Yan’er stood up and laughed, her brows and eyes all smug, “This time it’s bound to be true.”
“Really? It won’t be another mistake?” Pei Qingmin asked, his body slowly sitting up straight, and he could tell that his expression was not as calm as he had shown.
It had been wrong several times, but he never gave up.
As long as there was no definite news, he always hoped there was still a glimmer of possibility! Wasn’t there?
“Cousin, this time it’s true, I’ve inquired, this young lady at that time happened to be in the manor over there, recuperating from a disease, right on the side of your manor, that area actually doesn’t have many young ladies who are recuperating, and then there was an emergency and left, and it took me a great deal of effort to inquire about it.” Zhu Yan’er excitedly said.
“Have you gone to see it?” Pei Qingmin asked unhurriedly, only the hand on the chair rail he was holding could be seen that he exerted quite a bit of force, and the veins on his hand were rippling.
“I haven’t gone to see, want to go with cousin to see, if … if it really is not, at least there is cousin in, I … I alone will be very sad, she was so good then, so well-behaved … “Zhu Yan’er said choking up, take a pad to wipe up the tears.
Pei Qingmin looked at her quietly.
Zhu Yan’er was looked at and flustered, her face reddened with shame, sidestepping her head to take a handkerchief to wipe her face, and only after the tear stains on her face dried up some, did she turn around to Pei Qingmin and said, “Cousin, back then … she was bound to have something to leave, otherwise how come she didn’t say a word to us, so many years have gone by, and then again, more is not, it all have passed, we have also grown up.”
Grown up, so the little girl at the beginning is still there? Pei Qingmin lowered his eyes to the ground for a good half a second before slowly saying, “Let’s go, go and take a look!”
“Great, cousin, let’s go then!” Zhu Yan’er was so happy that she almost jumped up, reaching over and subconsciously coming to help Pei Qingmin, but was rejected by him with a wave of his hand, and the chamberlain hurriedly stepped forward and gave Pei Qingmin a hand.
After fixing his mind, Pei Qingmin turned around and marched outside, the smile under his eyes with some loss, in fact, he also does not believe that this time will be true, but there is always a need to find … it, is not it!
