Chapter 118 Avoiding the Heat
During the Chinese New Year, many concubines fell ill, just because the clothes for the banquet were too thin, there were Concubine Tong, the sisters of the Niu Hulu family, Concubine Rong...
Fortunately, the nannies of the prince and princess are reliable. In order not to be punished, they dressed the princess and brothers extremely warmly.So except for the third elder brother who was ill before, the others are fine.Not infected by this mass cold.
Not only in the palace, but also outside the palace, many wives fell ill. For a while, some staff in the imperial hospital were a little nervous. Even the imperial physician Sun, who had been away from the palace for several years, was called into the palace by his family uncle just a few days after returning to Beijing.
Ming Xuan also invited the imperial physician, but it wasn't a cold, but a fire.I ate too much spicy hot-boiled mutton, and I was afraid that I would wear too warm clothes for the cold, so I got two blisters on my mouth, so I met my long-lost friend, Doctor Sun.
Mingxuan was very kind when she saw Doctor Sun, and heard from him that this winter, ordinary people rarely get sick in their homes, but...
He didn't say what he said later, but Ming Xuan understood, and complained directly: "I thought it was the leader, and I also know that it's not allowed to go out in heavy snow..."
Grand doctor Sun once again faced such a kind and noble concubine, and said with great respect: "The intelligence of the empress is rare in the world."
Thanks to the concubine Xiangui, Doctor Sun only feels as if he is born again.
Because of cowpox, he received unprecedented glory and was destined to be famous in history.Even many colleagues in the industry looked at him differently. Over the past few years, he has traveled far and wide, and his medical skills have improved a lot.
Only when you go out do you know where your vision lies, and how can you get so much if you give up power?
Thinking of the admiration and respect shown to him by the patients he treated, Doctor Sun couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Therefore, in front of Mingxuan, Imperial Physician Sun knew that even if she made a mistake, the empress would not blame her, let alone spread it.
"Okay, be more sincere, don't talk nonsense, I don't know what my brain is like?" Ming Xuan waved her hand, and said directly: "It's agreed, I don't drink coptis, you can make me some Bitter gunpowder, have you ever been to Guangzhou, I heard that the herbal tea there is very good."
Doctor Sun smiled when he heard the words, and said, "Your Majesty is still the same as before."
Ming Xuan was puzzled, what did this mean?Are you boasting that you are as beautiful as before?
Doctor Sun didn't say much, and wrote the prescription with a pen, and then promised: "It's really not bitter, and my mother can take it at ease. As for herbal tea, I have a doctor who knows the generation of Guangzhou. After asking about it, I will offer it to my mother. But Next time, if the empress wants to eat something hot again, I will prepare some chrysanthemum tea with rock sugar."
Not bitter?Mingxuan nodded, and complained: "It's still you who is on the road, your uncle is too stubborn, every time he asks for something, he has to drop his book bag, which makes people have a headache. And every time he gets angry, he must first boil yellow lotus water for me. The palace is afraid of him."
"Uncle Clan has always been rigorous." Little Doctor Sun looked at Ming Xuan's bitter expression, and knew that she had been drinking Coptis chinensis in the past two years.
Most of Concubine Xian's illnesses are caused by ignorance of taboos.
Others, although it looks thin and weak, in fact, this body is definitely the best in the entire harem.
Mingxuan knew that Doctor Sun had been to many places in the past two years, so she took Liang Jiugong, who had sent Yinzhen over here, together, and asked him to talk about interesting things outside.
With Eunuch Liang and the Fourth Prince present, Imperial Physician Sun was not afraid to be alone with Mingxuan.
So I talked about it in detail, where have I been?
What kind of patients have you seen?How was it treated and what medicine was used?Why do you need to use this medicine?Different healing methods for the poor and women?
"You don't know what local delicacies are there, what are the beautiful scenery and delicacies that you don't know, co-authoring all the way or practicing medicine?" Ming Xuan felt bored after hearing this.
After finishing speaking, he frowned and said, "Look at you, you don't pay attention to details too much. You have been to Guangzhou, and you didn't even ask about the herbal tea recipe. If Bengong has that recipe, why should he suffer now?"
Doctor Sun was very enthusiastic about what he said, brother Si asked a lot of questions and all of them were on point, but when Concubine Xian made such a sentence suddenly, he suddenly lost his temper.
Concubine Xian Gui is really sober in the world, she was always drifting away under the adoring eyes of the fourth elder brother... But she was dragged out of reality by a word, still not doing enough, not careful enough.
"When I grow up in the future, I will definitely find a lot of delicious food for my mother when I go out." Yinzhen looked at Mingxuan and said suddenly.
Mingxuan drank the soup that wasn't bitter but not delicious in one breath, then took two sips of warm water, turned her head to look at Yinzhen, frowned and said, "What are you looking for? Go work hard with your prince brother in the future, Don't just think about going out to play all day long. In the future, Daqing will depend on your brotherhood!"
In the future, if Xiaosi is not crooked, he will be the prince's right-hand man, how can he go out with all his heart?
"Yes! Xiao Si knows." Yinzhen was not annoyed, and grinned.
When Imperial Physician Sun and Liang Jiugong left the Yongshou Palace, he sighed and said quietly: "My lady's request is still as simple and unpretentious as ever."
Liang Jiugong nodded, and said: "Little doctor Sun will pay more attention in the future, and my mother's preferences have never changed."
Entering the palace again, I changed from Sun Taiji to Xiao Sun Taiji, because of the merits of cowpox, all the people in the palace praised me, and occasionally saw other concubines, and all they heard were polite compliments.
Only Concubine Xian remained the same as before, and did not change in any way because she became a highly respected genius doctor, which made Xiao Sun feel very kind.
As soon as Doctor Sun returned, he was called over by his uncle.
"The emperor wants Concubine Xiangui to have a long memory. I didn't tell you that if I get angry, I will have Coptis chinensis..." Doctor Sun looked at his nephew, rubbed his head, and sighed.
Doctor Sun has also been a court official for many years, and replied directly: "It is too difficult for Concubine Xian to have a long memory..." It is impossible for Concubine Xian to avoid eating.
Physician Sun thinks about it too. In the past few years, Coptis chinensis alone has been placed more than a dozen times, but the effect that the emperor wants has not been achieved.
"The Sun family has received the great kindness of Concubine Xian Gui for the cowpox matter, and the empress never took credit for it, but she just didn't want to drink the bitter medicine." The little doctor Sun took a sip of the tea, which was also an explanation to the clan uncle.
Because Mingxuan said that even sheep know the cold, Tai Physician Sun couldn't help but play when he heard that there was someone in the palace with typhoid fever who couldn't be cured for a long time.
With such a large number of illnesses inside and outside the palace, some people questioned the warmth retention of wool.
"Why do people blame things?" Yinfeng ruthlessly complained to Kangxi: "Put the sheep itself on the snow and it will turn into frozen mutton. How can anyone think that wearing this will not be afraid of the severe cold? Stupid, right? Has Khan Amma not done enough?"
Kangxi pinched the fur ball on his son's hat, and instead of commenting on what he said about the stupidity of the concubines in the palace, he said with a smile: "The things I have done in the past few years of war are just to make up for the common people. Dry?"
Thinking about it this way, if news of the concubine's illness spread again, Kangxi would not care about it, not even greeting him.
But then I heard that the Yongshou Palace had hired an imperial physician, the reason was to get angry...
"It's also stupid!" Kangxi made this comment, but Yinfeng didn't say a word.
On the issue of my aunt's appetite, Yinreng also told her several times, but she was always fooled by her pitiful saying that life has no hobbies.
Mingxuan was ill, so Kangxi didn't call her, and took the crown prince, eldest elder brother, fourth elder brother, and three princesses directly, and they went out of the palace to wander around during the Chinese New Year.
The third elder brother is also sick, but he was sick years ago. It is said that when he was appreciating plum blossoms, he was too addicted to reciting poems, and then forgot the time, so he didn't come out.
Kangxi is already a Buddha to this son, so if you love reading, go read it!The more you read, the more you will know how many mistakes you have made.
The elder brother and the three princesses went out of the palace very rarely, and he was very happy to be brought out. Looking at the three healthy and lively sons, and the beautiful and considerate daughter, Kangxi was in a good mood and completely forgot about the bad things in the palace Son.
Looking at the three beautiful daughters, Kangxi took them to the workshop.
Seeing the sizeable workshop and the women working in it, the third princess suddenly asked, "Am I going to Mongolia to raise sheep in the future?"
Kangxi didn't speak, but heard the third princess waving her hands joyfully, shouted happily for a while, then turned to Kangxi and said: "Khan Ama, you must marry me to a fertile grassland. To prevent the establishment of a women's army."
Kangxi raised his eyebrows and saw that there was no displeasure in his daughter's eyes, so he said: "In the future, choose a few more sons-in-law and let you choose by yourself."
The eldest princess and the fifth princess didn't expect such a good thing?Fumeng is inevitable, if he can choose, it is not a bad thing, a smile hangs on his face.
"Ama Khan took us to the farm to ask about it. The woolen clothes among the people are very happy." Yinfeng came back from the palace and gave Mingxuan a lot of gifts, and said immediately.
Ming Xuan shrugged her shoulders, people's demands are not high nowadays.
Kangxi lowered the price of thick woolen yarn, and strictly controlled the buying and selling of woolen yarn. Mingxuan actually admired this alone.
Although there are still many people who can't afford it, more people don't have enough quantity, and they can't buy it even if they have money.But this kind of heart is enough to reassure the people. The common people know that the emperor thinks about them, and the soldiers know that the emperor thinks about them.
Seeing that his aunt didn't care too much about this matter, Yinreng saw that the corners of his mouth were bubbling, so he talked about the requests of the princesses.
"It's fine to choose by yourself." Ming Xuan was wrapped in a coat, hugging Coke, Kekou nestled at her feet, and said with a smile: "In the future, the princesses will have to choose by themselves!"
"That's right! If you choose by yourself, you will be less unwilling." Yinfeng agreed with a smile.Aunts and aunts are not many happy in the grasslands.
When the cold winter was over and the flowers bloomed in spring, just after the Kangxi Longevity Festival, he announced that he would take everyone out to escape the summer heat in May this year.
Who knew that the Empress Dowager and Concubine Tong suddenly found reasons to refuse?
As soon as Kangxi thought about it, he knew it was for the draft, so he left Concubine Zhao and Concubine Hui, and asked them to supervise the draft on the pretext that Concubine Tong Guifei was weak.
In order to appease Concubine Tong Gui, Concubine Yi, who was pregnant, was handed over to Concubine Tong Gui to take care of her.
Mingxuan could see the reluctance on Concubine Tong's face with naked eyes, but...it had nothing to do with her.
As for the empress dowager, the empress dowager proposed to take the fifth elder brother to escape the summer heat, and she immediately said that she just felt a little unwell recently, and she would be fine after ten days and half a month.
"You can't fail to do anything you want to do." Mingxuan said to Yinfeng when she was packing her luggage.
The list of showgirls has already been presented, Concubine Tong Gui still has not let go of her willingness to accept her concubine sister, Ming Xuan knows that she stayed here just for this time.Kangxi didn't care about it before, but once he made a move, Concubine Tong Gui was disqualified.
Yinreng shook his head and said, "Khan Ama didn't intend to let the little Gege of the Tong family enter the palace." Regarding this point, Yinreng only heard that Kangxi said it occasionally.
