"You must eat, even if you can't eat, you have to swallow it!" Dao Yan's tone was very stern, and he couldn't help but clasp Ma Xiuying's wrist and press the four seams with his thumb.

Ma Xiuying sweated in pain, frowned, and said, "I can't eat it, it's useless for you to force me." ”

"You're ruining your body!" In Daoyan's view, Ma Xiuying's refusal to eat is a phenomenon of self-abandonment, even though he is proficient in medical skills, he does not know that there is an anorexia disease that can be caused by external factors in later generations.

"Master, master, the master seems to be in pain. Xun Ying reminded that she saw that Ma Xiuying was gritting her teeth.

Dao Yan let go of his fingers, and the place where he pinched was black, he hurriedly changed the press to rub it, and said apologetically: "The poor monk is reckless." ”

"This pain transfer method is quite effective, and my stomach is not so uncomfortable. Ma Xiuying smiled nonchalantly, how could she blame Dao Yan.

Dao Yan sighed, stabilized his mind, and patiently persuaded: "Even if you only eat a little at a time, eat less and eat more often, so that you can keep up with the needs of your body." If you don't eat anything, I'm afraid you won't have the strength to talk to the poor monks. ”

"Then I'll try. "Ma Xiuying is like a child who makes mistakes, pitiful.

Xun Ying hurriedly sent someone to bring all the breakfast prepared by the imperial dining room.

This can alarm the imperial dining room and even Zhu Yuanzhang. Ma Xiuying is the most diligent and thrifty, her breakfast is generally steamed buns, flower rolls, rice cakes and two dishes of side dishes, a bowl of porridge, even if it is lunch, it is only four dishes and one soup, unless Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Biao three brothers have a meal in Kunning Palace, she will let people prepare richly, and it is the first time that she has asked the imperial dining room to bring all the food in such a luxurious way.

Surprised to surprised, the palace people did not delay at all to present the food, and reported the name of the dish: "Chicken soup meal!"

The imperial chef thought that Ma Xiuying was probably tired of eating steamed buns and flower rolls and wanted to change to other foods, so he specially presented a meat dish.

"Too tired, take it. Ma Xiuying felt uncomfortable when she heard the name.

"Crucian carp three fresh noodles in one product!"

"It smells fishy, take it. Ma Xiuying covered her nose.

The imperial chef was about to cry, if the fish food they made was eaten with a fishy smell, it would be a great sin. Crying with a sad face, he changed a dish, "Shredded pork, shredded water shoots, hot pot!"

"No meat, no vegan one. Ma Xiuying's stomach began to tumble again.

"An assorted dish in an enamel sunflower box!" the imperial chef hurriedly offered a vegetarian dish. This assorted dish is a special dish of Beijing, which is fried by more than 10 kinds of vegetables such as daylily, fungus, shiitake mushrooms, tofu clothes, vegetarian sausages, small greens, bean sprouts, etc., which are colorful, refreshing and delicious.

Ma Xiuying picked a bean sprout and immediately spit it out, "It's unpalatable." ”

The imperial chef really cried, usually Ma Xiuying was full of praise for this dish, and what he said was nutritious and meaningful, and today's unpalatable sentence was enough to make him lay off immediately.

"A taste of milk tofu!"

"A taste of flavored beans!"

"A product of spicy crystal jelly!"

……

The imperial chef was desperate, and every dish he presented, whether it was sour, sweet, spicy, salty, or light, was beaten back by Ma Xiuying intact. Why did the queen mother, who usually talks best, change her tricks to toss him today, he seems to be able to see his tragic fate.

"The emperor has arrived!"

All the palace people knelt down to say hello, and the imperial kitchen trembled on his knees on the ground trembling, for fear of being named by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't look at them, and asked, "Queen, I heard that you asked for a lot of food but you didn't eat it?"

He originally heard Ma Xiuying ask the imperial dining room to present all the food and just smiled faintly, thinking that Ma Xiuying also began to be extravagant, but after half an hour, when he asked the guard, Ma Xiuying actually only watched and didn't eat, and was still passing the meal, he suddenly felt strange, and he turned to Kunning Palace after the court.

Xun Ying cried: "Your Majesty, what does the queen eat and spit out, from yesterday to today, she has not eaten a drop of rice." ”

Dao Yan said: "The poor monk thinks that the queen's phoenix body is more important than anything else, so he dares to ask her to take a look at every food, so that she can eat something. ”

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard that Ma Xiuying had called the imperial dining room for this reason, he immediately said: "Queen, what do you want to eat, I will order them to do it immediately." ”

Ma Xiuying said wistfully: "Don't blame the imperial chef, it's the concubine's own bad appetite." I saw a lot of dishes, but I didn't eat the same, but wasted a lot. ”

The imperial chef burst into tears in his eyes, Ma Xiuying's words saved his family's life, and he gave Ma Xiuying an immortal tablet when he went back.

Zhu Yuanzhang is actually a thrifty person, but at the moment he said indifferently: "Those foods can be rewarded to the palace people, you just say what you want to eat." If you want to eat food outside the palace, I will send someone out of the palace immediately. ”

"The concubine doesn't want to eat anything. Ma Xiuying shook her head.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face sank, "Master Daoyan, why can't the queen eat?" In his opinion, Ma Xiuying was sick and uncomfortable, but Daoyan didn't try his best to heal.

"It's the poor monk who didn't take good care of the queen. Dao Yan said ashamedly, if he didn't ask Ma Xiuying to help him intercede with Zhu Yuanzhang, maybe Ma Xiuying would not be so depressed.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to get angry, Ma Xiuying hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't blame Master Daoyan. The concubine thought that Master Song still had to bear the guilt for his children and grandchildren at a very old age, and felt that it was not easy to be a parent, and she was afraid that the prince would be sad when she heard that his teacher was going to be executed, so she couldn't swallow it. ”

"Queen Mother!" Zhu Biao, who walked to the door, heard Ma Xiuying say this, and immediately rushed in and knelt in front of Ma Xiuying and cried. He also participated in the court meeting today, and after listening to the prison attendant inform him of the situation in Kunning Palace, he immediately rushed to visit Ma Xiuying. All the palace people knelt on the ground to greet Zhu Yuanzhang, so no one noticed that the prince was also coming.

"Prince, get up quickly. Ma Xiuying wanted to help Zhu Biao, but unfortunately she didn't have the strength.

Zhu Biao burst into tears, walked to Zhu Yuanzhang's feet, and kowtowed desperately, "Father, please forgive Master Song." A teacher for one day and a father for life, the son can't bear to see his old man fall into such an end in his old age. Besides, the queen mother has become depressed and sick for this matter, and the sons beg you to spare him for the sake of the queen mother. ”

"Prince. Seeing that Zhu Biao's forehead was bruised, Ma Xiuying's heart twisted into a ball, and she hurriedly knelt beside Zhu Biao, "Your Majesty, please forgive him for the sake of Master Song being the prince's teacher." ”

The queen and the crown prince both knelt down and pleaded, and all the palace people, whether sincere or false, said in unison: "I beg the emperor to forgive Master Song for the blessing of the queen." ”

"Rise up, I promise you to spare him from death. Seeing his wife and children crying sadly, Zhu Yuanzhang also felt sad in his heart. The next day, he pardoned Song Lian for his capital crime and placed him in Maozhou, where only his grandson Song Shen and his second son Song Pu were executed.
