Amber was shocked and nodded in a serious manner and responded: "Yes! Yes! It's the sheep intestine thread!"
Chu Qianhuang smiled faintly and continued to drink the cup of tea with candied apricot meat, with a light cloud and a light wind.
Chu Qianchen also laughed, and imitated Chu Qianhuang to pick up a candied apricot meat and throw it into the tea. His mind moved quickly: Sheep intestinal thread? What is that?
She was sure that there was absolutely no sheep intestinal thread in the medical books she had read in two lives, and her master Lin Miao also didn't know about the sheep intestinal thread.
Seeing Chu Qianhuang's expression was not nonsense, then how did she know?
A strange light flashed through Chu Qianchen's eyes and flashed away.
She wiped the corners of her lips with a veil, and while she looked around, she showed the girl's agility and beauty.
"Is sheep intestine thread made of sheep intestine?" she asked curiously, "I have never heard of this."
She just asked Amber to go to Jishitang to inquire about the suture thread, and deliberately put a trap for Chu Qianhuang. To be honest, she was only 40% sure in her heart, trying to test whether she could get some from Chu Qianhuang's mouth.
There are really gains!
Chu Qianchen suppressed the joy in his heart, and still smiled innocently on his face, his eyebrows and eyes stretched out.
Amber tacitly interrogated: "Princess, do you want me to come over and ask Doctor Liu Xiao of Jishitang again?"
The master and servant sang together, and neither showed any abnormality, as if Dr. Liu had really told the amber sheep intestinal thread.
Chu Qianhuang felt that the sheep intestine thread was no big deal, so she stopped amber, "The sheep intestine thread is indeed made of the sheep intestine, and in addition, the cow intestine is actually OK."
"So that's how it is." Chu Qianchen looked at Chu Qianhuang with admiration, and his eyes and expression seemed to be saying, "Sister, you know so much."
Amber lowered his eyes silently again, feeling that his princess' acting skills were perfect and easy to control.
Chu Qianhuang was seen by Chu Qianchen, so he said a few more words: "It's not difficult to make sheep intestinal thread. Just tanning and drying it, and then making it into a thread."
"I also heard from an imperial physician by chance, and I don't know it thoroughly." Chu Qianhuang added another sentence.
While drinking the sweet and sour chrysanthemum tea, Chu Qianchen listened carefully and chewed every word of Chu Qianhuang.
Chu Qianhuang said that the steps for making sheep intestinal thread are very vague and have a certain degree of jumping.
I'm afraid she just knows a rough idea, and these should be all she knows.
Although she felt a little regretful, her harvest today actually exceeded her expectations.
Chu Qianchen no longer surrounded the topic of the intestine thread and sighed just right: "There are really amazing things in the world. Today I really opened my eyes."
She started drinking tea again and chatted with Chu Qianhuang for a few words without any pain. The topic was about dim sum on the table and the incense lit in the elegant seat.
Amber knew that the master had achieved his goal today. He glanced at the Hulu next to him and smiled and said, "Princess, at this time, the date paste from Tang Suji next door is about to be released."
"Tang Suji's date paste is sold only ten furnaces a day, and it has always been in short supply." Chu Qianhuang replied casually.
Chu Qianchen smiled and said, "I came out specially for this date paste today. I bought it later and asked Amber to give a box to my elder sister."
Chu Qianhuang responded politely.
Chu Qianchen took three boxes of candied apricot meat from Yunting Pavilion and left. The master and servant went to Tang Suji next door to buy date paste. She got on the carriage by herself and asked Amber to send her date paste.
Chu Qianchen's fingers opened the corner of the curtain, looked at Yunting Pavilion and Amber's back in front of him, his eyes flashing.
Her mind was still thinking about the thorn thread that Chu Qianhuang mentioned.
Can sheep intestines really be used as threads for stitches and wounds?
Chu Qianchen felt that this conversation with Chu Qianhuang today was rewarding.
Not only because of the sheep intestinal thread, but also finally made her sure that Chu Qianhuang really had some chance.
Maybe she lived a lifetime as much as herself, or maybe...
Chu Qianchen's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, echoing in his ears like a drumbeat.
Or maybe, resurrect by borrowing a corpse?!
Chu Qianchen's pupils shrank rapidly, and his eyes were as deep as if they had melted into the boundless dark night.
At this moment, after delivering the amber with a jujube paste, he came back lightly.
The carriage embarked on the return journey and went straight back to Prince Chen's mansion.
After returning to the palace, Chu Qianchen asked Amber to find a sheep intestine.
It is best to eat mutton for nourishment in winter, but now it is August. In the kitchen, there is neither mutton nor scorpion nor sheep intestines.
Amber simply went to find Sui Daguan. Sui Daguan looked surprised, but he did not question the princess' instructions at all. He found five pieces of sheep intestines as quickly as possible. He also asked the kitchen to carefully clean them several times before sending the washed sheep intestines to the main courtyard.
The raw sheep intestines look white, soft and greasy, just like a white worm. Even if they have been washed many times, they still emit a strange smell.
Several little maids in the main courtyard covered their noses uncomfortable, and they really couldn't figure out what the princess wanted to give birth to sheep intestines.
Chu Qianchen carefully studied the raw sheep intestines and recalled what Chu Qianhuang said. She said that sheep intestines can be made into sheep intestine thread after tanning, but what she knows should be very general, and she has to explore the details step by step.
Chu Qianchen thought for a while and ordered Amber to take the casing.
The step of taking casings is simple. Chu Qianchen doesn’t need to do it yourself, and Amber can be used to help her pick it up. She specializes in different ways to get it thick and thin.
Chu Qianchen has no books to refer to, so he can only temporarily link "tanned" sheep intestines with tanned fur, assuming that their essence is similar.
Therefore, the first step in the tanning process should be to "soak in water".
She prepared a complete piece of raw sheep intestine and four other pieces of different casings into salt water and wood ash water of different temperatures, and ordered amber to record it. She planned to soak it for three to twelve hours respectively.
Chu Qianchen is very patient and she has no basis to refer to, so she is mentally prepared to fail many times.
The way of medicine is to make new discoveries through repeated attempts, just like Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs in ancient times.
After leaving the sheep intestines in the pharmacy, Chu Qianchen cleansed his hands and went to the small study.
She walked straight to the desk by the window and dripped water on the inkstone.
Judging from her appearance, Amber knew that the princess wanted to grind ink by herself, so she didn't go forward and went to work on other things first.
Chu Qianchen personally laid paper and grind the ink, and then held the pen.
When Amber came back from brewing tea, she saw Chu Qianchen writing with an elegant posture.
Her posture and movements are indescribably beautiful, just like a picture of a lady written by a famous artist.
Amber originally thought Chu Qianchen was sorting out the method of making the sheep intestine thread. When she walked to Chu Qianchen, she found that what the princess wrote had nothing to do with the sheep intestine thread.
The paper is written with "nine", "nine" in various fonts, regular script, official script, small regular script, cursive script, running script...
Amber was stunned for a moment, curled her lips, thinking that the princess must be missing the prince.
Amber's eyes were filled with a smile.
At this time, Chu Qianchen finished writing a page of "Nine" and closed the pen.
Chu Qianchen looked at the "Nine" on this page, sighed, and said softly, "I have to practice again."
Amber put down the teacup and couldn't help but say, "Princess, you have written it well!"
The strokes of "Jiu" are simple, and the simpler the strokes are, the harder it is to write. Each character "Jiu" written by Chu Qianchen is very beautiful and is enough to be a copybook.
Chu Qianchen put the wolf hair pen on the pen, looked at Amber with a strange look, and sighed again, "You don't know... this is homework."
Chu Qianchen couldn't help but remember what Gu Jue said before leaving, and he assigned her homework.
He said that when he came back, he hoped that he could hear her call him by herself.
Nine, good luck.
Chu Qianchen thought about Gu Jue's words in his heart, and felt that it was too difficult for him.
"I have to practice more." Chu Qianchen said to himself, sat down, and picked up the hot tea that Amber had just brought.
Amber blinked slowly and thought to himself: What does the princess mean? The prince assigned her homework and asked her to write "nine"? Is this about writing "hundred nine pictures"?
After taking two sips of tea, Chu Qianchen put down the teacup and looked out the window.
The sky had already darkened, and the dark night sky was covered with stars, surrounding the silver moon.
Chu Qianchen looked at the bright moon and whispered: "He should be coming soon, right?"
It can be imagined that the "he" that Chu Qianchen said was of course Gu Jue, and Amber pinched his finger and calculated, "Princess, the prince probably hasn't arrived yet."
Chu Qianchen did not refute, looking in the northwest direction.
After a while, she returned to the pharmacy.
Without Gu Jue watching, Chu Qianchen became busy and focused and forgot about time. It didn't stop until the next day when the rooster crowed.
Not only Chu Qianchen did not sleep all night, but Gu Jue was also half a dozen.
As Chu Qianchen estimated, Gu Jue had arrived in the northwest thousands of miles away at this moment.
He and Ukhalau separated three days ago. Gu Jue's trip to Beijing was not to escort Jialou. Jialou proposed to ask Gu Jue to "escort" and it was not really asking him to escort him.
Shortly after they left the capital, Gu Jue separated from Ukhagalou and his group, and he took Mo Chen to the northwest in a light and simple manner.
This time he was invisible and had to go back to meet Ukhagalau and the others, so he traveled day and night along the way.
When he arrived at the Nanyang Army camp, the sky had just turned pale.
Qin Yao was overjoyed when he heard Gu Jue coming. If he hadn't had his legs and feet inconvenient, he would have gone to meet him in person.
