Chapter 1548 Changle gets angry
Fang Jun was naturally willing to provide money and manpower to help Sun Simiao develop a prescription for treating malaria with Artemisia annua. It was difficult to purify Artemisia annua, but Artemisia annua was clearly documented and it was absolutely feasible. Once this recipe is figured out, countless people will survive. Not to mention what a huge feat this is, but what kind of merit it is for a citizen of the Tang Dynasty?
Early the next morning, Fang Jun arrived at the Yamen of the Ministry of War and first issued a transfer order to Su Dingfang, ordering him to return to Huating Town immediately. He ordered Xue Rengui, Xi Junmai and other generals from poor families to rush to Chang'an immediately to help reorganize the Youtun camp.
Then I browsed the military ration allocation reports from Jiangnan, Shandong and other places. This was preparation for the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo and must not be ignored.
After the official business was settled, Liu Shi was asked to find a quiet place near the Foundry Bureau to build a few houses as a test site for the artemisia annua. Then, in the name of the Ministry of War, he sent a letter to various government offices, especially in the Jiangnan area, instructing him to collect local artemisia annua. Quickly send to Chang'an.
After all, he only knew how to make water from Artemisia annua, but he didn’t know which kind of Artemisia annua it was. He could only use such stupid methods to test one by one. Fortunately, with the great god Sun Simiao here, he only needed to prepare building materials and test potions. Sun Simiao had to take action in such matters.
It is very fast to build a few simple houses. The foundry bureau's construction site now has enough manpower and materials, so it can be built in a few days. Artemisia annua is also found in the Guanzhong area. Send people to collect it immediately. It can be tested immediately after the building is completed. At the same time, different types of artemisia annua from all over the world will gradually arrive in Chang'an without any delay.
After finishing the work, the general took a breath and took a sip of tea. Then a scribe came to report that Princess Jinyang summoned...
Fang Jun quickly tidied up his clothes and walked out of the duty room.
An unfamiliar waiter was already waiting at the door of the main hall. When he saw Fang Jun coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward.
Fang Jun asked: "Recently transferred to His Highness Jinyang's palace? I have never seen you before."
The chamberlain didn't say much, he just said: "Master Chamberlain, please come with us."
After saying that, he took the lead and led the way.
After leaving the yamen of the Ministry of War, there were already soldiers coming on horseback, and the chamberlain also came on horseback. The two got on their horses and left the imperial city...
Riding on the horse, Fang Jun frowned and asked: "Isn't His Highness Jinyang in the palace?"
The yamen of the Ministry of War, the yamen of the other five ministries, and even most of the central government offices of the imperial court were all within the imperial city. They were only separated from the Taiji Palace by a sky street. The gate of the Taiji Palace, Chengtian Gate, stood to the north of the imperial city. But the chamberlain took Fang Jun out of the imperial city through the Suzaku Gate and headed south...
The chamberlain said respectfully on horseback: "Go back to the chamber and let the chamberlain speak. Your Highness will be waiting for you in the Furong Garden."
Hibiscus Garden?
Isn't that the private garden of Wei King Li Tai?
King Li Tai of Wei followed the British Duke Li Ji to fight the rebellion in the Western Regions. Two days ago, the Ministry of War received a report from the British Duke, saying that Li Tai had returned to Chang'an. However, the Western Regions were far away from the Chang'an Mountains and there were many dangerous passes in the Gobi Desert along the way. Won't be back for a while.
Why did Princess Jinyang go to Furong Garden?
I was confused and asked again, but the waiter was like a gourd with its mouth cut off, refusing to say a word.
Fang Jun frowned, but he looked at the few generals following him and didn't take it seriously. As long as he did not leave Chang'an City, he would not be afraid even if someone wanted to spread the rumors about Princess Jinyang to harm him.
There won't be any bold stick who dares to mobilize the army to deal with him, right?
The streets were gradually bustling with pedestrians. The sultry weather did not keep the ordinary people at home. Many ornately decorated carriages also drove out in twos and threes from various places and headed towards Mingde Gate in the south of the city. Most of them belonged to officials and noble families. The family members left the city to escape the summer heat.
The group arrived at the Furong Garden, where the tree-lined scenery was elegant. The sultry wind blew over the rippling Qujiang Pond. The summer air was filtered by the pond water and disappeared. It blew on people's bodies, making them feel cool and comfortable.
The chamberlain led Fang Jun to an exquisite small building shaded by tall locust trees, got off his horse, bowed and said: "His Royal Highness is waiting for you inside the building, chamberlain, please come in."
Fang Jun also got off his horse, glanced at this weird chamberlain, and without saying a word, handed the reins of the horse to Wei Ying who was following him, straightened his clothes a little, and walked into the small building.
The small building only has two floors. The lobby on the ground floor has little decoration and has windows on all sides. Because it is surrounded by tall locust trees, it is shaded. From time to time, a breeze carrying the scent of vegetation passes through the hall, making it especially cool.
There was a low table placed in the hall, with mats spread on the surrounding shiny floor. At this moment, a woman in Taoist robes was kneeling dignifiedly in front of the low table. A pair of delicate white and jade-like hands put the red clay stove on the " "Gudu Gudu" The steaming copper kettle was lifted up, and the steamy hot water was poured into a white jade teapot on the short table.
For a moment, a light and timeless fragrance of tea overflowed.
There are two other maids in goose-yellow gauze skirts sitting on their knees with their heads lowered.
Fang Jun was stunned for a moment, then took off his shoes at the door, took two steps forward, bowed and saluted: "Wei Chen has met Her Royal Highness Princess Changle."
But he didn't expect that it would be Princess Changle who invited him here under the banner of Princess Jinyang.
I can't help but feel suspicious in my heart, what is Princess Changle doing? She invited me here but used the banner of Princess Jinyang, as if she had done something wrong, and she was secretive and shameful.
Could it be that Her Highness the Princess was so deeply in love with me that she couldn't help but miss her so much that she secretly wanted to have something happen with her?
Princess Changle raised her head, a reserved and dignified smile appeared on her beautiful face, and said softly: "You don't need to be polite, please take a seat quickly."
Fang Jun, with various thoughts running through his mind, said "Oh" without being polite and knelt down opposite Princess Changle.
Princess Changle sat upright, with a pure face and a straight back. She lifted the teapot with her bare hands and poured half a cup of tea into a white jade cup. She gently pushed it in front of Fang Jun and said in a clear voice: "This is a gift given to me by my father. For new tea, I will borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha, and the chamberlain will invite you.”
Fang Jun was confused. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He looked at Princess Changle's serious and reserved face. Her manners and manners were impeccable. Her gestures, words and expressions showed the royal noble and perfect etiquette...
This girl must be asking for something, but who is she pretending to be showing off like this?
It’s not like we’ve never seen you take off your clothes. Who doesn’t know who you are...
Even though he had traveled through the Tang Dynasty for a long time, sitting on his knees was still a torment for Fang Jun. He simply sat on the floor carelessly, looking at Princess Changle's flawless pretty face, and said bluntly: "Your Highness secretly smiled. I called you, something must have happened, right? If you have something to say, I will never frown, okay? I’m tired just looking at you!
Fang Jun almost clearly saw Princess Changle's delicate body under the Taoist robes instantly stiffened. Two red clouds appeared on her pretty face like white jade in the blink of an eye. Her beautiful eyes stared at Fang Jun and said angrily: "What do you mean by sneaking? A dog's mouth is spitting. No ivory! ”
As soon as the words came out, Princess Changle saw Fang Jun raise his eyebrows proudly, and she felt secretly regretful.
This stick was clearly teasing me on purpose, and my tone of voice said it was annoyed, but it was more like flirting...
What's wrong with you?
Why can't I maintain my usual reserve even for a moment in front of this person...
Taking a deep breath, Princess Changle lowered her eyes and said warmly: "I do have an unkind request, and I hope the chamberlain minister can agree to it."
Fang Jun chuckled, waved his hand, and said with a heroic look: "Your Highness's words are obvious. Didn't Wei Chen just say that as long as Your Highness opens your mouth, the wind will go away and the fire will go away?" Chuang, no problem! Besides, what’s the relationship between us? We live and die together..."
"Shut up!"
Princess Changle's pretty face seemed to be dyed with a layer of rouge, adding a bit of delicacy to her unparalleled beauty. Her beautiful eyes stared at Fang Jun angrily and she bit her fine white teeth angrily. She wished she could pounce on her and savagely punch her in the face. A few scratches on the black face!
What the hell are you talking about? !
Although it is barely acceptable to say that they lived and died together, but it is pure nonsense to say that they are connected.
Lest Fang Jun continue to say something ambiguous and cause misunderstanding, Princess Changle was angry and ashamed, and almost buried her chin in her chest towards the two people who were afraid that they would be silenced if they learned the "secret". The little palace maid pretended to be cool and said: "You two go out first."
"Here!"
The two little palace maids stood up quickly as if they had received an amnesty. They didn't even notice how big their footsteps were, but they rushed to the door in a few clicks and disappeared in a flash...
Fang Jun smiled and said: "Your Highness is very courageous. This man and woman live together in the same room...are you not afraid that Wei Chen will do something, or are you expecting Wei Chen to do something?"
Princess Changle has a pretty face. She has always been reserved and dignified. How had she ever heard such frivolous words?
He was so angry that he slapped the table with his hand and shouted: "Shut up!"
As soon as the words came out, I was stunned.
How long has it been since you lost your temper like this? Who would have thought that Princess Changle, who is dignified and virtuous in front of others, would actually set the table and glare like a shrew in the market?
But...
He seems to be in a good mood for losing his temper so unscrupulously...(End of Chapter)
