Chapter 400 Zhou Sheng Ru Gu 11
After returning to the village for just over two months, Ling Xi felt as if he had been in another world for a long time.
After seeing the brilliant world outside, the isolated days in the village will feel strange.
Some of the medicinal herbs planted at the door have died, but some are still growing lushly.
Perhaps it was the aunties in the village who had watered the medicinal herbs. In the previous years, when she and the old doctor were away, they asked the villagers to water the medicinal herbs, and later they remembered this.
After not coming back for two months, many leaves fell in the yard and the house was covered with dust.
Zhou Shengchen looked around the room. It was no different from the first time he came here. It was still as tidy as before.
He turned his head to look at Ling Xi and asked, "What do you need to take away? I'll have someone pack them for you and put them in the carriage behind."
Ling Xi didn't say anything and walked into another room. Zhou Shengchen followed and saw that the room was full of books.
Zhou Shengchen took a quick look and found that there were medical books everywhere.
The collection of books in the Nanchen Palace is rich enough, but even so, there are not so many precious medical books in the palace.
At this moment, Zhou Shengchen couldn't help but feel curious about the old doctor who raised Ling Xi.
It’s a pity that when people die, there will be no answers to some things.
Ling Xi pointed at the books and said, "Your Highness, everything I want to take is here. After all, these medical books are the most valuable. The medicinal herbs in the medicine cabinet outside are the second most valuable. My grandfather has accumulated this huge fortune in his lifetime."
She didn't know the old doctor's identity, but she also knew that some of these medical books were unique, and she couldn't let them gather dust here.
It’s a pity that the medicinal herbs grown outside cannot be taken away, but those herbs are some common ones, so even if I can’t take them away, I won’t feel too bad.
Zhou Shengchen naturally understood what were the best things to take away. He nodded and immediately ordered the soldiers outside to come in and pack up.
A dozen soldiers came in: "Your Majesty."
Zhou Shengchen said, "Move all the medical books in this room to the carriage. Remember to be careful not to damage them. Also, classify the medicinal materials in the medicine cabinet outside and pack them into boxes. Don't mix them up."
The soldiers all responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
After the soldiers started to move, Zhou Shengchen said to Ling Xi, "When we get back to the palace, I'll build you a bigger pharmacy. The palace is big, and you can also plant some medicinal herbs in the yard. It won't be a problem."
Zhou Shengchen guessed that Ling Xi would definitely be reluctant to give up the piece of land outside where medicinal herbs were planted, so he planned to go back and clear a piece of vacant land in the palace to plant medicinal herbs for her.
Anyway, it is a good thing to plant some medicinal herbs in the palace so that they can be used in time when there is an emergency.
Ling Xi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked up at Zhou Shengchen with surprise and asked, "Prince, is it true?"
Zhou Shengchen raised his hand and touched Ling Xi's head. His voice was very gentle, even doting. "Of course it's true. From now on, you will be Wang Jun's military doctor. Military doctors naturally have some privileges."
Ling Xi curled her eyebrows happily, obviously in a good mood.
Seeing that the soldiers had finished moving the books and that he was not needed here for the time being, Ling Xi went to his room on the right.
Her room was very simple, with a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk, nothing else.
As a man, Zhou Shengchen was not comfortable entering a woman's room. Only after getting Ling Xi's permission did he walk into Ling Xi's bedroom.
After taking a quick look around, Zhou Shengchen inevitably frowned.
This room is too shabby.
Then, seeing that Ling Xi had packed only a few pieces of clothes, the colors were simple and elegant, she didn't look like a little girl at all.
As for jewelry, dressing tables and the like, there was not a single thing to be found in the room.
For a moment, Zhou Shengchen couldn't help but feel distressed, like ants gnawing at his heart. She was at an age when she loved beauty, but her clothes were simple, not to mention that she didn't even have the most monotonous hairpin. She was only devoted to studying medicine. If it was true what the military advisor said, Ling Xi was no longer independent, but pitiful.
Seeing this, Zhou Shengchen made up his mind that when he returned to the palace, he would make sure to raise the little girl to be fair and tender, and make more clothes and jewelry for her.
It seemed that in his warehouse, there were still some high-quality cloths that had been rewarded by his royal brother.
But the color doesn't look good, so I don't want it.
The little girl is at the age of a flower, and she should wear bright colors.
After thinking of various ideas of raising a little girl, Zhou Shengchen became more eager to take Ling Xi back to the palace.
After the soldiers moved all the things in the house onto the carriage, Ling Xi took a small bag of his, took one last look at the empty house, and closed the door completely.
This time, I really won’t come back once I leave.
She put the baggage on the carriage she was riding in, and took Zhou Shengchen to the old doctor's grave.
After clearing away the weeds that had grown for two months, Ling Xi knelt down again and kowtowed three times solemnly to the old doctor.
No matter who the old doctor was, he eventually brought her back from the wild and raised her.
She will always remember this life-saving grace and the kindness of raising her.
Zhou Shengchen stood aside, bent down and bowed to express his respect to the old doctor.
When they officially set out, because Wang's army had more people and marched slower, Zhou Shengchen and Ling Xi caught up with the main force in two days.
When they met on the road, Feng Qiao was the happiest one.
Feng Qiao was very bored because her little friend to talk to and the snowball she could touch were gone.
So, when Feng Qiao saw Ling Xi coming back, she was extremely happy.
He didn't even ride the horse, but got into Ling Xi's carriage and sat with her.
Touching the furry snowball in her hand, Feng Qiao squinted her eyes and smiled cheerfully, saying to Ling Xi: "A Xi, you don't know how bored I have been these past two days. Fortunately, you came back so soon."
"By the way, when we get to the palace, you can live with me. You can live next to me, and we can talk together at night."
Ling Xi nodded and replied with a smile: "Okay, but will the prince agree?"
"Why do I need Master's consent? In the palace, there are only three of us girls except the maids. My senior sister and I live together, so of course you have to live with us."
Feng Qiao looked confused and spoke frankly, taking it for granted.
Ling Xi thought about it and felt that what Feng Qiao said was not wrong.
Zhou Shengchen doesn't care what girls do.
Outside the carriage, Zhou Shengchen and Xie Chong were riding horses together.
Feng Qiao spoke in a loud voice, and Zhou Shengchen and Xie Chong both heard what she said.
Xie Chong looked at Zhou Shengchen and said teasingly, "It seems that your Highness, as a master, is not so majestic in Feng Qiao's heart?"
Zhou Shengchen chuckled and asked, "Does a military advisor have authority?"
Xie Chong stopped talking.
He really wasn't that impressive to this group of people.
