Chapter 118 101 Stories That Must Be Told
"Aunt Cuiguo, are you and sister awake?"
"My dear Lady Ying, my queen hasn't woken up yet."
Xia Dongchun was a little dejected. "It's so sad that I can't share such an interesting thing with my sister."
An Lingrong, who was standing at the side, tugged at Xia Dongchun and said, "We'll share it with sister after she wakes up."
"I asked Xunyue to prepare some delicious food and called Bailu, Baiguo and the others. Let's watch it first. When He Jie wakes up, we can tell her about it."
Qingliang Hall
The eunuchs and palace maids in the courtyard and the guards outside the door could all clearly hear Miss Songzhi's recitation and Concubine Hua's hearty laughter.
"Wu Ya Zhengguang, the Minister of the Imperial Academy, is usually a stern and serious person, but in fact he often secretly wears the clothes of his wife and concubines at home. He especially likes pink and light yellow, and hides a large number of women's clothes in his study."
"Oh? I've heard of Wu Ya Zheng Guang. He's an old man in his forties. He's very thin, but he has a lot of beard on his face. He's the nephew of our Queen Mother."
"Yes, Madam, I think what is written here is very credible, because people outside have spread rumors that most of the clothes and fabrics bought by Wu Ya Zhengguang's family are really these two colors. The concubines all said that the master likes them to wear these colors at home. I didn't expect that he actually wanted to wear them himself."
When Concubine Hua thought about Wu Ya Zhengguang's face wearing women's clothes and admiring himself, she was suddenly shocked.

"Uyaerbu, the Junior Minister of Guanglu Temple, has a mistress in Laohuaishu Hutong who gave birth to twin sons. Uyaerbu is planning to take in a concubine recently because his wife, Heqila, has no children. He also wants to adopt the twins as orphans under the name of his wife."
"Doesn't this Uyarbu have any concubines?"
"No, He Qila was from the upper three banners, and Uya was from the lower five banners. It is said that Uya asked He Qila to marry him, but he promised to be together for the rest of his life, and only then did He Qila agree to marry his daughter to him."
"Since Wu Yaerbu is planning this, does it seem that He Qila has agreed to his taking a concubine?"
"Look at what's on it."
"Then this news can be regarded as a reminder to He Qila family, so as to avoid being deceived."
"My lady, this matter is not over yet. It says below that Wu Yaerbu is infertile and the twins are the bastards of his mistress and someone else."
"Bring it here for me to see."
"My lady, the person who wrote this pamphlet is quite kind. Such a heartless man should be kept in the dark."
"Zhou Ninghai, what do you think?"
"I feel that the purpose of the person who wrote the pamphlet is to bring disgrace to the Ulanara and Uya clans, or even to their complete ruin."
"This booklet, titled One Hundred and Little Stories That Must Be Told by the Ulanara Family and the Uya Family, was picked up by me first. I have roughly read through the contents."
"What is recorded here are all the unknown secrets and shameful things of the two major clans. The first part is about some scandals in the inner house, and the latter part is all about the two clans bullying men and women, accepting bribes, robbing, and intentional murder."
"Has the emperor seen this book?"
"I don't know, but I think I saw it, because I heard from the Nian family that this booklet was scattered all over the capital, just in time for the ministers to leave the court, and each of the empresses in the palace also had a copy in their hands."
"Keep a close eye on them recently, to prevent the Queen and Queen Mother from getting desperate."
"Greetings to the noble concubine."
"Why did Doctor Wei come so early today? How is your sister doing?"
"She has nothing to do. If you sit in the yard for a long time in this season, you will easily catch a cold. If you want to sit in the yard, you can choose to do so after mid-morning."
Concubine Hua shook her handkerchief and stood up, "I understand. I will go into the house right away."
"Songzhi, go and pour a cup of tea for Doctor Wei. Add a little more lotus seeds and make the tea strong."
"My lady, this is not good, right?"
"What's wrong with that? He's always controlling me. It's really annoying. I didn't hurt him. I just wanted to help him cool down and make him suffer a little."
After Wei Lin took Concubine Hua's pulse, Concubine Hua picked up the teapot beside her and poured herself a cup.
"Doctor Wei, try this freshly brewed tea."
Wei Lin was just about to pick up the pen to write a new prescription when he smelled a bitter odor.
As a time traveler who grew up in a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, even if he had changed his body, the memory of smells that had been engraved in his soul for a long time was still very sharp in this life. Moreover, as a doctor, his nose was not better than a dog's, and he was extremely sensitive to all kinds of smells.
Wei Lin took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, "Old Lady, another cup please."
Concubine Hua was stunned for a moment, then poured another glass.
He drank another glass under her puzzled gaze.
"Good tea."
"You said this is good tea?"
Wei Lin nodded. "Although this tea smells bitter, it tastes mellow and sweet. I wonder what kind of tea it is mixed with to have such a wonderful taste. Your Majesty, can you let me have another cup?"
Concubine Hua slowly poured the tea into Wei Lin's cup again, and Wei Lin drank it all in one gulp.
"Keep your sleeves out."
Wei Lin spread out his arms openly, his sleeves clean and fresh.
Concubine Hua stood up again and looked down at the ground. There was not a drop of water.
"What is the Imperial Concubine looking for? Would you like to taste it?"
Concubine Hua stared at Wei Lin, then poured herself a glass.
"Your Majesty, it's best to drink it all in one gulp so that your entire mouth can feel the refreshing taste of the tea."
Concubine Hua thought Wei Lin didn't seem to be lying. Did Song Zhi not put lotus seeds in the tea? Or did she put sugar in the tea?
