Chapter 292 Request Plan(1/2)
On the other hand, under the leadership of the maid in the mansion, Sheng Changquan finally returned to the place where he had lived for a short time six years ago.
However, compared to the usual courtyard, the top scholar's hall at this time is different, at least it is luxurious and much more gorgeous.
Although the yard, which is still two in and two out, has not been expanded, the interior layout is much more refined.
The purple curtains, the blue-white screens, and the maroon tables, chairs, and beds reflect one by one, forming a circle just right, making people feel refreshed when viewed.
“Wow~”
Straws of sunlight shine through the window like water waves, flowing into this neat and neat room.
"Teng~"
In Sheng Changquan's eyes, the golden light, which was like a wave, flowed into the room, was surrounded by a purple-green sandalwood, filling the air, echoing each other.
"Um?"
Seeing the wonders in the room, Sheng Changquan was slightly stunned, and then suddenly smelled the fragrance in the air. He closed his eyes and savored it carefully for a while.
After a long time, he sighed: "Yes, this is a royal tribute, taken from the best Buddha Tan from the Azhan Kingdom in the Western Regions."
He knew the meaning of the sandalwood when he smelled the fragrance. In these six years, Sheng Changquan not only had many roads, but also had a much broader understanding, so he could only recognize this thing.
The Achana Kingdom is a small country in the Western Regions. Buddhism is prosperous and faithful. Although its national strength is not strong, it has many specialties, especially this sandalwood, which is even more unique!
The best Buddha sandalwood in Achana is not only fragrant and pleasant, but also has extremely good effects. It can calm people's mind and calm their energy and relieve their emotions. Long-term users can nourish their minds, prolong life and be healthy, and are extremely popular among the great officials of this dynasty.
Even the palace also designated it as a tribute and gained a lot from the Azhan Kingdom every year.
However, because this top-quality Buddha sandalwood is not only rare in raw materials, but also in production process is extremely difficult. It is said that only extremely devout Buddhists can make this thing under the witness of the Buddha. Therefore, this sandalwood is hard to buy in every gold, and the value is really great!
Sheng Changquan was sure that there were not many in the East Mansion. At this time, it would be difficult to get one to ignite it for him!
In this regard, he naturally endorsed this favor.
"Well!"
Sheng Changquan thought about it and simply turned around and walked out, preparing to summon the maid to take him to find Minglan.
He planned to solve Shulan's affairs in the past few days to repay the love of the East Mansion.
Unexpectedly, before he could walk out of the yard of the Zhuangyuan Pavilion, Minglan ran in from outside with Pinlan.
"Brother!"
From afar, Minglan greeted Sheng Changquan.
"Brother Changquan!"
Although she hadn't seen each other for more than six years, Pinlan was not very dissatisfied. She followed Minglan directly and greeted Sheng Changquan.
After all, I lived here for a while, so Sheng Changquan and Shulan and Pinlan are not unfamiliar with them.
However, in comparison, he is closer to Shulan, while Pinlan is a little worse.
"Chang Quan has met Sister Pinlan!"
Sheng Changquan first nodded to Minglan with a smile, Quan thought it was saying hello, and then he squinted his eyes and looked at Sheng Pinlan with a happy expression in front of him, but his thoughts changed sharply.
"It seems that Sister A is going to reveal that matter through Sister Pinlan?"
Sheng Changquan turned his head and looked at Minglan next to him again, with some exploration in his eyes.
"Swish!"
Minglan smiled and blinked at him, nodded slightly, and responded to Sheng Changquan.
"Ahhh!"
"Brother Changquan, I knew you still remember me!"
Pinlan didn't know the secret communication between the two around her. At this time, she was immersed in the reaction given by Sheng Changquan, with some pride on her face.
After all, Sheng Changquan was a little different in her heart.
Speaking of which, because the East Mansion is a merchant, Pinlan has heard a lot about reading since she was a child, especially under Sheng Wei's words and deeds, which makes Pinlan feel a sense of sincerity towards scholars.
However, unlike Shulan's obedience and respect for all scholars, Pinlan has a selective worship.
She doesn't like those pedantic people who are boasting, have no ability, and are self-righteous all day long. In her eyes, she only admires those scholars who are good at studying, can get fame and a bright future.
And coincidentally, Sheng Changquan is here.
Because he heard from his father and grandmother that he often mentioned it, Pinlan also had some respect for Sheng Changquan.
Although she is Sheng Changquan's cousin, the two have the same abilities and status. Therefore, when they see Sheng Changquan's attitude towards her, Pinlan will inevitably be a little happy...
Proud!
That feeling was like being praised by the elders who had been respected for a long time, making people feel extremely comfortable.
"Brother Changquan, what places have you been to and what have you seen over the years?"
Although the purpose of Pinlan's visit this time was to ask Sheng Changquan to diagnose Shulan, even if the relationship between the two families was very good, she would not speak directly as soon as she came up. After all, it would be really easy for people to feel uncomfortable doing that.
That's why Pinlan said something else after saying hello, and prepared to talk about something from the side to eliminate the strangeness between the two, and then ask for it.
"hehe!"
"Actually, I haven't been to many places, but I just arrived in Yanzhou..."
Although he guessed a few points, Sheng Changquan didn't say it clearly. He just smiled and said something in a light way, and then he spoke leisurely, asking with concern: "Sister Pinlan, what's wrong with you here this time?"
"I see you, you seem to have something to worry about?"
Sheng Changquan asked in a pretentious manner.
"Oh, Brother Changquan!"
Sheng Changquan's question hit her mind. Pinlan didn't even think about it and just said, "You guessed it right. Actually, I have something here that I want to ask you to take action!"
"oh?"
Sheng Changquan communicated with Minglan again with his eyes for a while, then looked at Pinlan and asked, "Sister Pinlan, just say anything if you have anything to do!"
"As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you!"
Sheng Changquan blinked, his face showed a firm look, and he replied without hesitation at all.
In fact, it was just for his own personality. Otherwise, Sheng Changquan would want to pat his chest and make a military order for Pinlan.
Sheng Changquan knew in his heart that what Pinlan asked was nothing more than something about Shulan's sister.
He would not refuse this.
"That's really great!"
When Pinlan heard Sheng Changquan's words, he was immediately very happy.
After Sheng Changquan agreed, Minglan finally stood beside the two of them and spoke.
"Brother, actually, Sister Pinlan came this time just to let you go out and accompany her to Sister Shulan's in-laws' house and show her body!"
Seeing that there was some hesitation on Pinlan's face, it seemed that it was difficult to speak, Minglan took the opportunity to speak and said, "Actually, Sister Shulan's body has always been a little unhappy, as if she had some old diseases!"
"Brother, you don't know that when Sister Shulan's old illness relapsed, her face looked really ugly!"
"It seems to be really painful depending on the situation!"
What Minglan is actually talking about is the excuse Shulan said when she and Pinlan visited Sun's house last time when she saw their faces change rapidly.
Afterwards, Minglan learned about Shulan's miserable days at the Sun family, and Pinlan was still kept in the dark.
However, what Minglan had to do at this time was to take Pinlan to expose the matter, and was preparing to pick up Shulan's affairs and expose them to the entire Sheng family.
To be precise, it is planned to present it to the old lady and let her decide!
"Ah? Sister Shulan?"
Sheng Changquan was "shocked"!
You have to do your best to cooperate with the performance.
Sheng Changquan's expression suddenly changed after hearing what Minglan said!
Not only did his sword eyebrows suddenly frown, but his eyes suddenly changed, showing a hint of anxiety. Just looking at his appearance, those who don’t know would think that he and Shulan were the relatives of their relatives!
"Sister Pinlan, is Sister Shulan's old illness serious?"
Sheng Changquan did not ask Minglan, but instead followed Pinlan and asked, "Have you invited a doctor to see it?"
"What do they say?"
Pinlan was also very pleased with Sheng Changquan's reaction.
Because she knew that among the two sisters, the relationship between Shulan and Sheng Changquan was actually better. After all, six years ago, she often came to help Sheng Changquan deal with mundane affairs.
"Brother Changquan, don't worry, my sister naturally hired a doctor."
Pinlan looked at Sheng Changquan and said what she heard from Shulan, saying, "However, those doctors said that the old diseases of my sister were all old problems and could not be cured at all. She could only take care of them slowly!"
"I'm here to invite you this time because I heard from Minglan that your brother Changquan is very skilled in medicine. I hope you can cure my sister!"
After a pause, Pinlan added another sentence and said, "And even if you can't cure your sister's problem with Changquan, at least it can relieve her pain and make her feel more comfortable!"
