Chapter 275 Public revenge and private revenge
Ye Wanqing's eyes were calm and she smiled faintly at him.

Gu Chen was a smart man, and he understood immediately: "I understand, please rest assured, Princess."

After that, he left in a hurry.

As soon as they left, Chu Anlan wanted to pull Ye Wanqing back to the yard: "I won't go out today. I'll go back with you to have a good rest."

Ye Wanqing stood still: "An Lan, I really don't care. You said you would go out with me, you can't go back on your word."

"You almost fainted just now." Chu Anlan was surprised.

Ye Wanqing pursed her lips: "I was mad at Chen Xi."

"That's what I told you..." Chu Anlan sighed, then asked, "Come to think of it, what were you and Gu Chen talking about just now?"

Ye Wanqing smiled faintly: "I asked Doctor Gu to add more Coptis chinensis to Chenxi's medicine."

"Ah?" Chu Anlan was surprised: "Did Gu Chen understand?"

Ye Wanqing nodded: "I understand, and I agree."

On the way out, Chu Anlan was in a bad mood.

Ye Wanqing looked at him several times, hesitating to speak: "An Lan, are you angry?"

"No." Chu Anlan snorted.

Ye Wanqing smiled: "You are obviously angry, why don't you admit it? Just now at home, who told me that sulking will make you sick?"

"Hey..." Chu Anlan was depressed: "I'm not sulking, I just can't figure it out."

Can't figure it out?
Ye Wanqing asked: "What are you wondering about?"

Chu Anlan muttered: "I can't figure it out, why Gu Chen could understand you asking him to put Coptis chinensis in Ye Chenxi's medicine, but I didn't understand?"

Ye Wanqing said as they walked, "Fresh walnuts should be on the market these days, but I didn't see any in Lin'an, maybe there aren't many people growing them here.

After all, most farmers in Lin'an grow crops and peaches.

Walnuts, I’m afraid, can only be found in the deep mountains. The weather this year is not very hot, so I think the walnuts will ripen a little late.”

Chu Anlan looked at her with bright eyes: "Qing'er, you know a lot."

Ye Wanqing smiled and said, "I also read this in the Fengwuzhi."

Scenery?
Another landscape chronicle.

Chu Anlan had heard so much that he became curious about Fengwuzhi: "Are there so many things recorded in Fengwuzhi?"

"Yes." Ye Wanqing said as they walked: "The Fengwuzhi will record in detail the topography, historical background, cultural customs, and personnel records of this place..."

Chu Anlan listened carefully.

Ye Wanqing finished speaking before looking at him: "I have already prepared Lin'an Fengwuzhi for you."

“Ahem…” Chu Anlan scratched the back of his head and said, “When I have time, I will read it carefully.

Tomorrow, I will do nothing but read books!"

Ye Wanqing smiled: "Yeah."

The city was not very lively in the afternoon, but fortunately all the shops were open and there were many street stalls.

I went into several shops in succession. The doors were open, but inside there was only a clerk or the shopkeeper dozing off or eating sunflower seeds...

Chu Anlan was puzzled: "Why is Lin'an so quiet today? Where did everyone go?"

"Isn't this the Crown Prince and his wife?" The shopkeeper who was eating sunflower seeds in the shop looked up and said, "Everyone is out catching locusts."

Catching locusts?
Chu Anlan and Ye Wanqing looked at each other with strange expressions.

The shopkeeper grabbed a handful of melon seeds and handed them to Chu Anlan: "Didn't a miracle doctor say that eating locusts is good for that aspect?

Also, eating it can help children grow taller...

Many people didn't believe it, but more and more people came to catch locusts, and the government ordered that all locusts must be buried in the next two days...

Regardless of whether the effect is real or not, it will be gone if you miss it, so many people go to the mountains and fields.

Moreover, once the locusts are cooked, they can be used as a snack to go with wine.

What if it really works?"

Chu Anlan ate some melon seeds and laughed out loud: "It's pretty good, haha!"

……

After walking out of the shop for a while, Chu Anlan could no longer hold back his laughter, with his hands on his hips, and he fell forward and backward.

Ye Wanqing smiled: "Are you so happy?" "Happy! Very happy!" Chu Anlan smiled brightly: "The method is a bit damaging, but at least it works.

From then on, at this time every year, if someone saw locusts in the fields, they would run around to tell each other, and then everyone would go catch them together.

In this way, we can prevent locust plagues to a certain extent, right?"

The smile on Ye Wanqing's lips widened a little: "Your Highness is right."

Chu Anlan was quite proud: "I also contributed a lot of useful ideas and effort to control the locust plague this time. I want to see who dares to say that I am a good-for-nothing playboy in the future! Humph..."

The two continued to hang out.

After two hours, I had picked out a lot of holiday gifts.

After asking the attendant to pay the deposit and confirm the delivery address, Ye Wanqing paused and said, "Add another address."

She recited a string of place names.

"This place name sounds familiar?" Chu Anlan was surprised: "Isn't this the house you gave to Fu Yu?

There's no one living there, why are you delivering things there?"

Ye Wanqing smiled faintly: "It's better to be prepared."

Chu Anlan seemed to understand but not quite.

Just as I was about to ask, Ye Wanqing had already gone out.

Chu Anlan scratched his head: "Qing'er, wait for me!"

The two of them wandered around the city for a long time.

It was only in the evening that he managed to return home.

Seeing the two, the housekeeper wiped his sweat and said, "The prince and the princess are finally back. The eldest master has been looking for you since he woke up."

"How is Chen Xi?" Ye Wanqing asked.

The housekeeper said: "After Doctor Gu examined him, the pain stopped quickly, but he was still fussy for a while while taking the medicine.

The eldest son complained that the medicine was bitter, and he said that Doctor Gu was persecuting him and wanted to complain to the princess..."

Complain?

"Puff..." Chu Anlan laughed out loud and said mischievously: "Qing'er, if I tell him the truth, will he be so angry that he will cry?"

Ye Wanqing gave him a reproachful look: "Your Highness really just wants to watch the fun."

Chu Anlan grinned.

Ye Wanqing asked Chu Anlan to wait to receive the New Year gift, while she went to Ye Chenxi's yard.

Before entering the house, I heard the sound of a silver spoon hitting porcelain: "Sugar... I want sugar..."

No one ignored him.

Ye Chenxi didn't get annoyed and continued tapping the medicine bowl.

Ye Wanqing stepped into the room.

Hearing the footsteps, everyone in the room looked up.

Ye Chenxi was overjoyed: "Sister, you are finally back!"

As he spoke, he began to complain: "Gu Chen is using public power to take revenge on his own!

He took advantage of my illness to kill me and put a lot of Coptis chinensis in my medicine!

An hour has passed, a full hour, and my mouth is still numb from the bitterness of the coptis root!"

By the window, Gu Chen put down the medical book and stood up: "My Lady, the eldest son had a stomachache after being drunk last night, and he ate too much cold food today, which led to the unbearable abdominal pain.

I have relieved his pain and prepared some medicine for him.

In the next half month, the eldest son had better abstain from food, eat less cold, spicy, greasy, and sweet food, and avoid drinking alcohol. "

"Half a month?" Ye Chenxi threw away the spoon and sat up: "Gu Chen, did you do this on purpose?"

Gu Chen remained calm.

Ye Wanqing glanced at her brother and asked, "Are crabs, pork elbows and the like not edible?"

Gu Chen smiled faintly and said, "That's right, you also need to avoid iced fruits and vegetables and iced drinks.

Today and tomorrow, try to avoid meat and fish, but you can drink some corn porridge."
