Lin Haihai followed the little girl to a place called "Peace Palace". As soon as he entered the palace gate, a strange fragrance immediately hit his nostrils. Lin Haihai looked around and saw that all kinds of flowers were blooming in the garden! Light purple, pink, yellow, light blue, bright red. Among them were roses, lilies, roses, lilacs, and many flowers she couldn't name. Bees and butterflies kept nodding back and forth high and low. In the corner, there are actually a few datura plants! Lin Haihai immediately rushed over to identify it, and found that it was indeed a mandala. There's red, there's white, there's purple! The little girl shouted loudly from behind: "Come back quickly, don't go there, it's poisonous!"
Lin Haihai turned around and saw the anxious look on the little girl's face. She smiled and walked back, but she was very excited about this discovery. If there is Datura, then there is an anesthetic! As long as Datura is added to the hemp powder she developed, it will be easy to control the amount, because in modern times, she and her grandfather once studied Datura and extracted its poison!
"Who planted these flowers? They are so beautiful!" Lin Haihai can't wait to get to know the owner here! It's summer now, and the flowers here are still blooming so beautifully. The owner must be a flower cherisher, and he also knows a lot about how to grow flowers. To learn about flowers, you must get to know this person!
"My mother planted it. She said the flowers you just saw are called Manzhu Shahua. They are poisonous. You should not get too close! Otherwise, you will be poisoned."
Manzhu Shahua, also known as the flower of the other shore! Lin Haihai knew that there was a legend about this kind of flower. I wonder if the owner knew this legend and took the risk to plant it in the palace? Lin Haihai guessed in his heart! But what I just saw was not Manjusava, but Datura datura, which is a different plant from Manjusava.
Mother? Is she the queen? That was the dignified woman I just saw at Brother Yang’s place! is her? Her beautiful appearance came to Lin Haihai's mind! Could it be her
"What's your name?" Lin Haihai asked!
"My name is Yang Chuting, sister, what's your name?" The little girl's voice was clear and beautiful!
"Just call me Sister Lin!"
"Sister, your surname is Lin? My uncle Sixth Emperor's princess is also surnamed Lin! Do you know me, sister?"
"I don't know him! Haven't you seen him before?"
"Grandma Huang said that Aunt Huang is sick and won't let us see her! I really want to go play with Uncle Sixth Prince!" Yang Chuting pouted and said boringly!
"Then my sister will take you there when she has time! Okay?" Lin Haihai promised!
"Really? You can't lie to me!" There was a look on the little face. These emperors and princesses stay in these deep palaces and inner courtyards every day, aloof. Where can they experience the happiness of ordinary people? Lin Haihai decided to take her to see the world if he had the chance!
As he was talking, the eunuch's voice came from outside, "See the Queen!"
"Get down!" A soft voice sounded. It was indeed the woman known as the Queen in Brother Yang's room today! This turns out to be the queen's place! Lin Haihai was secretly happy. This queen should be easy to get along with. She still spoke for him today!
"Mother, I met a sister today and brought her over as a guest!" Yang Chuting jumped out and ran out!
"Look at you, you don't have any manners at all. You don't look like a princess at all. You just look like a wild girl!" The reproachful voice was lightly doting. Lin Haihai looked up and saw the woman wearing a phoenix robe today!
"See you, Queen!" Lin Haihai awkwardly shook his head!
"It's you!" the queen said in surprise!
"It's me! Please ask the Queen, is Brother Yang feeling better?" Lin Haihai was thinking about Yang Shaolun and asked without hesitation!
"Brother Yang you are talking about is the emperor?" The queen looked calm, as if she didn't mind the title!
"Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't call you that, it's the emperor!" Lin Haihai was a little embarrassed!
"He took medicine and his fever subsided, but he kept calling for someone!" The queen looked at Lin Haihai carefully, trying to see something from her face!
"Oh, that's good. The fever is gone, which means the inflammation is gone! As long as you continue to drink medicine, you will get better soon!" Lin Haihai was relieved. As long as the fever is gone, everything else will be easy to handle, and the blood will no longer Exclusion occurs.
"What's your name?" The queen looked at Lin Haihai with a deep look on her face!
"Lin Haihai!"! The careless way of answering made the people around the queen very dissatisfied.
"Are you a folk woman?" the queen asked! I feel a little clear in my heart!
"Well, yes! Queen, I want to ask you, did you grow the mandala outside?" Lin Haihai asked anxiously! If she clears the hilltop to grow herbs, she must ask the Queen for advice on how to grow them!
The queen was shocked, "Do you know that is a mandala?"
"We usually call it Datura flower. This flower is poisonous, but it can also be used as medicine. As for the Mandala flower you mentioned, it is a different kind of flower. In our place, there is a legend about this flower. Do you want to hear it, Queen? "
"Legend? What kind of legend is it?" A touch of sadness appeared on her face. The queen looked at Lin Haihai and motioned for her to continue! Lin Haihai intuitively believed that there must be a story between the queen and the flower of the other side. Maybe she had heard this legend herself.
"The Datura flower, also known as the other side flower, is generally considered to be the flower that grows by the Santu River. The fragrance of the flower is said to have magical power and can evoke the memory of the deceased.
According to legend, this flower only blooms in Huangquan and is the only scenery on the Huangquan Road. Manzhu Shahua is a flower that blooms on the Road to the Underworld, where it blooms in large numbers. From a distance, it looks like a carpet paved with blood. It is also known as "The Fire Shines" because of its red color. "Road" is also the only scenery and color on this long Huangquan Road. People follow the guidance of this flower and lead to the hell of the underworld. When the soul crosses the River of Forgetfulness, it forgets all the things in life. Everything in the past remains on the other side and blooms into a beautiful flower.
The Buddhist scriptures say: The flower on the other side blooms for a thousand years and falls for a thousand years. The flowers and leaves will never see each other. Love is not causal, edge destined to death! "Lin Haihai recounted this sad legend to the emperor with some sentimentality!
"It takes a thousand years to bloom and a thousand years to fall, and the flowers and leaves will never see each other. Love is not cause and effect, fate is destined to life and death!" The queen murmured this sentence, her eyes filled with liquid, which could slip out at any time!
Lin Haihai looked at the queen, feeling a little sad in his heart! She could feel the deep sadness shown by the queen, and she concluded that there must be an unknown past buried in the queen's heart! It's just that there are some things that you shouldn't touch lightly, otherwise the consequences can be serious!
"Why did you make my mother cry?" When the little girl saw the tears in the queen's eyes, she immediately turned her face and accused Lin Haihai!
"Ting'er can't be rude. It's none of my sister's business. It's my mother who is thinking of your uncle!" the queen said gently!
"Mother, don't be sad. My uncle has been dead for so long. Maybe he was reborn as a fat boy!"
Lin Haihai and the Queen were both amused by her! The maids and eunuchs behind him also laughed. Lin Haihai looked at the sky and said to himself, "I wonder if Concubine Li is gone?"
"I'm back. It's just that she is the emperor's favorite concubine. You try not to conflict with her, otherwise you will suffer!" The queen kindly warned her!
"Of course I don't dare to offend her. Seeing how arrogant she looks, she must be very capable!" Lin Haihai said with a smile!
"You will naturally know in the future! You will fight with her!" the queen said with deep meaning!
"No! Your Majesty, please be fine. She and I will never meet again, and I won't care about that slap!" Lin Haihai looked like he was grateful! It’s a joke, it’s better to offend a villain than a woman! Moreover, she is a shrew type and should not be approached by strangers!
"By the way, Queen, I have something to ask for!" Lin Haihai thought of planting medicine. There is a ready-made technical consultant here. Of course, he can't go back to Baoshan empty-handed!
"Please say!"
"I want the Queen to teach me how to plant mandala!" Lin Haihai said straightforwardly!
"Why do you plant datura? You know it is poisonous!" the queen asked alertly!
"I said that datura is poisonous, but it can also be used as medicine, and its effects cannot be replaced by other medicines, so I must cultivate it successfully!"
"Are you really just a doctor?" The Queen was a little unsure at first. Could it be that she had guessed wrong
"It's guaranteed!" Lin Haihai patted his chest and said playfully: "Empress, as long as you can serve as my technical consultant, I guarantee that you will get surprises you can't imagine!" Lin Haihai said pointedly. !
The queen looked at Lin Haihai. Her big bright eyes were full of smiles. She could not see the real content inside, but her whole body gave off a convincing light. The queen nodded involuntarily! Lin Haihai's smile became brighter, and he stood up and said, "I want to go back and see the emperor. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Queen, remember what you promised me, I will find you." Yours!" She blinked at Yang Chuting, then turned around, raised her hands, and left without looking back! It seems very chic, but... .
The maid behind the queen was dissatisfied and wanted to say something, but the queen reached out to stop her!
"This palace lady, wait a minute!" Lin Haihai awkwardly stopped a passing palace lady. The palace lady looked at her warily. She had already seen her wandering around in Lanzhi Palace just now, and then she also saw her in the Imperial Garden. Now I saw her when I returned to Mo Qiu Palace. Was she following her
"Well, um, it's like this. I want to go to Eunuch Xiao Yuan. How can I get there?" She was confused. She didn't know the name of the emperor's palace. She couldn't say that she wanted to go to the emperor. Fortunately, she remembered the eunuch beside the emperor. His name is Xiao Yuan, the one who stepped forward to help her today!
"Eunuch Xiao is serving the emperor in the Qiankun Hall. Let's do this. I have to go there anyway, so I'll take you there by the way!" The maid saw that she knew Eunuch Xiao and might be a relative of Eunuch Xiao, so she fawned over Lin Haihai.
Lin Haihai naturally wanted it!
Along the way, Lin Haihai also asked the palace maids about a lot of things. It turned out that Concubine Li's father was a powerful and strict prime minister. Concubine Li entered the palace a year ago and was named Jieyu as soon as she entered the palace. Within a few months, Then she was promoted to the rank of imperial concubine, and half a year ago she was promoted to imperial concubine. Although there was a queen above her, the queen was childless and kind-hearted and low-key. Concubine Li had not taken her seriously for a long time. Calling her the queen was already a great injustice to her. Something happened! Not to mention morning and evening, Concubine Li would never be polite even when they met her, and she would not even bless her body. Now that she is pregnant with a dragon, she is even more arrogant and domineering. When she is unhappy, the queen will take it for granted!
The queen is the concubine of the Chen Kingdom. She married the emperor when he was still the crown prince and named him the crown princess. After the emperor ascended the throne, she naturally became the queen. The emperor only respected her but did not favor her. In addition, he had only given birth to one princess in so many years and had neither heirs nor an important father. The queen had no choice but to tolerate and did not dare to resist!
Lin Haihai knew that the harem was the cruelest battlefield in the world, and it was best not to interfere with the affairs of the harem. However, since he invited the queen to be his technical advisor, he would be involved in many matters, including whether he would offend Concubine Li. There is nothing unknown, so it’s always good to know more!
