All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter 1001: Truly a Heroine

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was already winter in Liaodong, but the Jinchun Garden was still lush with flowers and trees.

The Jinchun Garden lived up to its name.

If she hadn’t insisted on coming to Jinzhou with Yin Huaixi, the Jinchun Garden might have gradually become deserted and dilapidated with the passing of King Li of Zhou and the Princess Consort.

Yu Youyao’s lips curled up. “This place is quite good.”

There were also many evergreen trees planted in the Yu Garden. They grew all year round and were invincible in the cold and heat. They were a little similar to the trees in the Jinyuan Garden.

The main courtyard, the Dangui Garden, was the residence of King Li of Zhou and the Princess Consort in the past. The Princess Consort liked the Dangui and planted everywhere. Yu Youyao chose the Dongqing Courtyard, which was not far from the Dangui Garden.

Due to neglect, the courtyard was growing wildly. The vines spread and hung on the walls and eaves, making it look wild.

“Japanese honeysuckle flowers are white when they first bloom, and then they turn yellow. They’re also known as golden-and-silver flowers. They can be used in medicine and have the effect of reducing heat and detoxifying. They can also be used to make incense. They’re sweet and cold, and their fragrance is clear. They can remove evil and heat. Their flowers also appear in pairs. They’re inseparable, like a male and female accompanying each other. They’re also like mandarin ducks dancing together, so they’re called mandarin duck vines.” Mandarin duck vines!

This simple and unadorned courtyard was filled with King Li of Zhou’s deep love for the Princess Consort.

After traveling for three consecutive days, they were finally settled down. Yu Youyao took a medicinal bath and felt alive again.

Xia Tao brought over some bird’s nest porridge. “When Your Highness travels to Jinzhou, he stays in the army most of the time and rarely come to the other courtyard to settle down. There are only a dozen or so old servants in the other courtyard. They’re all old servants who used to serve King Li of Zhou and the

Princess Consort. They have an extraordinary relationship with Your Highness. On one hand, they’re taking care of King Li of Zhou and the Princess Consort’s old residence, and on the other hand, they’re recuperating in the other courtyard. Now, they’re all waiting at the entrance of the Dongqing Courtyard to greet you.”

Yu Youyao quickly said, “Please come in.”

Among the dozen or so old servants, the eldest, Uncle Yu, was in his sixties, and the youngest was in his early forties. When they saw Yu Youyao, all of them had tears in their eyes and looked very excited.

The Jinyuan Guard, which had been empty for many years, finally welcomed its new owner.

It was Eldest Princess Shaoyi.

She was His Highness’s fiancée and future Little Princess Consort.

Uncle Yu wiped his tears. “Two days ago, His Highness sent a message saying that the Eldest Princess was coming over to stay for a while. As time was too short and there were not many people in the other courtyard, we could only repair it hastily. It’s a little simple, but it’s been hard on the Eldest Princess.” Yu Youyao understood how they felt.

After King Li of Zhou and the Princess Consort passed away, this courtyard, which carried too many deep feelings for his parents, became a sentimental place for Yin Huaixi. Therefore, he rarely came to the courtyard to stay.

Without their master, no matter how much effort these old servants put in, it was inevitable that the old residence would be dilapidated.

However, these old servants guarded their master’s old residence day after day, waiting for their young master to occasionally arrive on a whim. They would probably gradually become willing but weak.

“This place is quite good. Thank you for your trouble.” Yu Youyao sighed softly. “I’ll stay in the other courtyard for a while. I’ll have to trouble you for the next few days.”

Uncle Yu hurriedly said, “Eldest Princess, you flatter us. His Highness has arranged for you to live in the Jinyuan Garden. You’re the owner of the Jinyuan Garden. If you have any instructions, just instruct us.”

The other old servants also agreed.

When Yu Youyao heard this, she knew that these old servants had probably long known that the Empress Dowager had bestowed marriage to her and Yin Huaixi, and treated her as their future master.

Her lips moved as she looked at the eager faces. For a moment, she did not know what to say.

King Li of Zhou and the Princess Consort had passed away, and Yin Huaixi was their only master. As Yin Huaixi’s fiancée, it seemed like it was only a matter of time before she became the future Princess Consort, right?

However, what was wrong?!

The current owner of the Jinyuan Garden was Yin Huaixi. The old servant’s attitude was clearly instructed by Yin Huaixi!

In that case, Yu Youyao did not say much.

Uncle Yu had brought the old servants from the other courtyard over to greet her. He had not come over to disturb her. He had originally been worried that he would neglect Yu Youyao, so he had come over to acknowledge her and see if she had any instructions.

He had achieved his goal. Seeing that Yu Youyao looked a little tired, he thoughtfully left.

Not long after, Uncle Yu sent over a few light snacks.

It was a very authentic Hang Gang dish. It was famous for being light and peaceful. When the taste of the customers was uncertain, it was stir-fried, stewed, sautéd, and braised into one. It gathered all kinds of flavors. It was fresh, refreshing, crisp, and tender. Freshness and texture of the Hang Gang dishes was also of great importance. It was undoubtedly a jack of all trades, and there was almost no mistake.

There were seven dishes and a soup. Eight cooking methods were used. The dishes were steamed, braised, stir-fried, and stewed in light oil and sauce.

It was obvious that the person cooked the dishes had put in a lot of effort.

Yu Youyao had met the Princess Consort before and knew that she was from Hangzhou. Among the old servants, there was a kitchen maid who was good at cooking in Hangzhou. Her surname was Shi, and she used to serve in the small kitchen in the Princess Consort’s courtyard. She must have made this dish.

She was very satisfied with her dinner.

In the blink of an eye, it had been three days since Yu Youyao had moved into the other courtyard.

After Yin Huaixi entered Jinzhou, he went to the army and disappeared for three consecutive days. Under the care of the old servants in the other courtyard, Yu Youyao also recovered and understood a lot about the general situation in Jinzhou. She even heard a lot from the old servants about King Li of Zhou and the Princess Consort.

Uncle Yu said, “After the Old Princess Consort arrived in Jinzhou, she learned some basic medical skills from the military doctor in the military hospital. As she often went to the military doctor’s office to help take care of the injured soldiers, she figured out a set of methods to treat external injuries. Through the injured parts, what kind of weapon the soldier was injured by, the depth of

of the wound, the shape, and so on, she summarized the fastest and most effective emergency wound treatment method. Not only did it greatly reduce the casualties in the army, but it also reduced the consumption of medicinal herbs.”

Yu Youyao’s expression changed and she couldn’t help but admire her. “The Princess Consort is truly a heroine.”

There were only a limited number of military doctors in the military hospital. Many injured people were seriously injured or even lost their lives because the best treatment time had been delayed.

The Princess Consort’s emergency wound treatment method did not require medical skills. Ordinary people could also learn it according to the script. After roughly treating the wound, it could prevent the injury from worsening for a certain period of time.

Once the military doctor stepped in and treated them further, it was already very safe.

Uncle Yu looked sad. “She also established a military doctor’s office and gathered some soldiers. She taught them the lessons she had summarized from her experience. Every time there was a war, she would gather them to help out in the military doctor’s office and treat the injured. The Imperial Court owes the North Army money every year and loses many soldiers every year. The old Princess Consort’s method played a key role.”

Yu Youyao could imagine King Li of Zhou and the Princess Consort’s difficult situation in the North. The emergency wound treatment was summarized by the Princess Consort under the anxious situation of lacking medical treatment. It was to avoid more casualties and to cut corners.

Even in her predicament, she still did her best to overcome and win.

It was obvious how proud and unyielding she was..
