Several sons of the emperor today, there are several famous ones, and now they are still locked up in the prison and don't know whether they are alive or dead.

On the contrary, it is the eighth prince who should be the emperor's favorite, so low-key that he is not often mentioned.

Qi Xiangsi didn't believe that the Eighth Prince was liked by the emperor, until the little prince mentioned to her about the Eighth Emperor's biological mother, and then she knew about this unmentioned past in the palace.

The biological mother of the eighth prince was originally sent in by the queen mother's family to serve the queen mother as a companion, and the He family wanted to stay with the queen mother for a few years and find a good family for the child.

Miss He Ba is smart and clever, and she is a beautiful embryo, she looked very good when she was twelve or thirteen years old when she entered the palace, and in the three or four years after entering the palace, she cultivated a relationship with the emperor.

When the emperor opened his mouth and wanted to let Miss He Ba enter the palace as a concubine, the queen mother was quite happy, for her this is a matter of kissing and kissing, the emperor likes the girl of her mother's family, which is still a good thing for the He family, so she allowed this and sealed Zhaoyi and let her enter the palace.

At first, they were all very good, and the relationship between the emperor and Miss He Ba was also very good, but Miss He Ba was good at everything, and she got along well with Shen Guifei, but she was very persistent in her feelings, she liked the emperor, and her mind was on the emperor, so it was difficult to accept that the emperor had others while having her, and he also doted on other concubines, and over time, she had heart disease.

Originally, it was a good thing to be pregnant with the prince, but after conceiving the prince, Miss Heba's heart disease was not only not good, but it was getting worse, she was kind by nature and she would not think of what kind of means to harm people to fight, so that everything was held by herself, and it was easy to think too much when she was pregnant, and the girl He Ba completely suffered from depression and heart disease, and when the eighth prince was born, she was about to be full moon, and the emperor had just promoted her to the fourth concubine, and the girl jumped from the observation tower in the most tragic way. In this way, he ended his life and set himself free.

Before she died, Miss He Ba entrusted the eighth prince to the most trusted palace maid, this palace maid was Tang Jieyu later, brought to the palace from the He family, and served by Miss He Ba for many years, so that before she died, she thought of entrusting the child to her instead of entrusting it to the queen mother and the He family.

The emperor and the queen mother naturally didn't look at the child really being handed over to a palace maid, so the queen mother raised the eighth prince in her own palace and was taken care of by the palace maid.

And this palace maid, from the beginning of taking care of the eighth prince's status as a palace lady to unexpectedly being favored and becoming a beauty, relying on the eighth prince, promoted step by step, and finally sat in Jieyu's position, which is not beautiful.

It turns out that she can continue to rely on the emperor's favor for the eighth prince to find a good life for herself, and the eighth prince will still miss her good in the future, but people just won't be satisfied, Tang Jieyu still wants more, and it will be better to look at it, and finally die in Yongxiang.

The death of Miss He Ba hit the emperor very hard, his feelings for Miss He Ba were not the same as those for other concubines, and the reason for this was that his attitude towards the Eighth Prince was also different.

In Qi Xiangsi's view, this is the real father's love for his son, no father pushes him to the cusp when he really loves his son and wants to protect him, the little prince seems to be in the limelight but has suffered a lot since he was a child, but the eighth prince rarely shows up, hides under his wings, and still lives in the palace and has not moved out.

Came to Taihe Palace with the medicine, showed the sign at the door, and the palace maid who guarded took her in, and the fragrance of osmanthus all over the courtyard spread to the main house.

The palace maid at the door of the main house took her in after a while, took the medicine bowl from her hand, and Qi Xiangsi knelt down to salute the eighth prince who was sitting there.

"Get up." Yan Congmu waved his hand, "Give Miss Qi a seat." ”

"Thank you Your Highness for your kindness, there is still something in the Anle Hall, I will go back to help first."

"You've just gone to Anle Hall, and you're indispensable for anything." Yan Congmu asked the palace maid to serve tea, drank the medicine brought up, and gently wiped the corners of his mouth, "Didn't you come to see me?" ”

Qi Xiangsi promised the little prince that he wanted to find an opportunity to see the eighth prince, but it was not now: "Back to Your Highness, this trip is to bring you medicine, I didn't bring a medicine box." ”

"Everything you need is here, come here, get it ready for Miss Qi." Yan Congmu looked at her with a slow smile, his expression was gentle, and he obviously spoke gently but with an undeniable decision, "What does Miss Qi think?" ”

"Yes." Qi Xiangsi lowered her head slightly, got up and walked in front of the Eighth Prince, and waited for the palace maid to prepare all the things before she sat down to give him a pulse.

is the same as what the little prince said, the pulse of the eighth prince is weak, but it is not the weakness of poisoning, it seems that it is only because of the symptoms caused by coughing, Qi Xiangsi has read the diagnosis book of the eighth prince, and the diagnosis results of several imperial doctors are similar.

Imperial Physician He once said that some symptoms will be hidden under the surface, and the little prince said that the eighth prince was poisoned, which should also be justified.

Yan Congmu didn't ask, just smiled and looked at Qi Xiangsi's occasional frowning expression, so that Eleven is such a caring girl, it is indeed different from ordinary, but there are many girls who can do some medical skills, why did Eleven fall in love with such a trouble.

After a long time, Qi Xiangsi took his hand and asked: "Your Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, you said that when you met that doctor in Yongzhou eight years ago, he had cured your cough, so three years ago, what happened to you again?" ”

"Three years ago, it was also this season, and suddenly I made a mistake." After Yan Congmu finished speaking, he coughed lightly twice, and his face was slightly red.

"What do you like to eat on a daily basis?"

Yan Congmu glanced at the palace maid beside him, and the palace maid replied on her behalf: "Your Highness loves to drink tea, eat some osmanthus crisp, and the meals on weekdays are sent by the imperial dining room, and there is no problem." ”

The meals sent over every day are different, and it is difficult to judge whether it has been poisoned for a long time, but you can often find some clues in what you eat, so Qi Xiangsi asked: "Can you let me bring one back?" ”

After the palace maid obtained the consent of the eighth prince: "The slave maid is going to prepare." ”

"Miss Qi, what did you think?" Yan Congmu looked at her with a faint smile, a gust of wind blew in from the window, Yan Congmu frowned slightly, raised his hand to cover his mouth, and coughed nonstop.

The palace maid who was serving next to her hurriedly served tea, and after half a cup went down, Yan Congmu felt that her throat was more comfortable, and she put down the teacup with a blushing face: "Let Miss Qi smile." ”

Qi Xiangsi looked towards the window, could it be that the eighth prince is allergic to pollen? The most in the yard is osmanthus, and the most severe cough is also in autumn, which has nothing to do with these flowers.

"His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, can I go out and have a look."

"Please."

Qi Xiangsi walked out of the house and walked towards the few osmanthus trees closest to the window in the yard, and the fragrance of the flowers was much stronger, and the golden osmanthus flowers hung down between the leaves, several in clusters, very beautiful.

Looking back at the window, the wind blowing from the south will send the fragrance of flowers into the window, if the Eighth Prince is allergic to pollen, there will not be so many osmanthus planted in this yard, Qi Xiangsi thought in his heart, raised his hand to climb the branch and pulled it towards him, looked down and sniffed, his nose suddenly itched, and he couldn't restrain himself from sneezing two times in succession.

Qi Xiangsi was stunned for a moment, looked down at the blooming flower clusters, thought for a while, turned around and asked the palace maid who followed to ask for scissors: "Can I cut a few clusters of osmanthus back?" ”

After the palace maid asked the eighth prince, she brought a small basket over, and Qi Xiangsi asked for a piece of white cloth, cut a few tufts on the tree by the window, and cut a few tufts in other places in the courtyard, and put them in the basket with white cloth.

After a while, the palace maid serving in the house took out the box containing the osmanthus cake and handed it to Qi Xiangsi: "Your Highness is resting, I'll send the medicine girl out." ”

The palace maid sent her to the door of Taihe Palace with a smile, and returned to the main house to report, Yan Congmu heard that she also asked for the tea he drank on weekdays, and his eyebrows moved slightly: "What else do you want?" ”

"Doctor Qi asked a lot of His Highness's daily habits, cut the osmanthus and begged for some tea that His Highness drinks on weekdays, and also asked the slave maid if His Highness's medicine was fried in Anle Hall."

Yan leaned back, coughed twice on his chest: "Eleven is back, you send someone to Yuwang's Mansion and invite him into the palace." ”

"Yes."

......

Qi Xiangsi returned to Anle Hall, and when she entered the door, she met Agarwood and brought out the two medical girls she had met in the courtyard before: "Miss Qi, you are back." ”

Qi Xiangsi smiled and nodded, Zhu Yin, who was standing behind, smelled the aroma, and his eyes fell on the basket in Qi Xiangsi's hand: "What is so fragrant?" ”

Agarwood smiled: "It's osmanthus." ”

"Hmm."

"There are many osmanthas planted in the Taihe Palace, and the fragrance can float far away at this time, and these are the rewards of His Royal Highness?"

"Yes, I saw that the osmanthus of Taihe Palace was so good, so I asked the paper harrier to ask for some to come back and make medicinal sugar water."

"Shameless." Zhu Yin muttered behind Agarwood, he sent medicine, he was so thick-skinned that he dared to ask the people of Taihe Palace to ask for Dangui, but he really took himself seriously.

"That's a good thing, I'll ask you for a bowl of it." Agarwood glanced at Zhu Yin, smiled and said goodbye to Qi Xiangsi, "Let's go to Yanshou Palace first, and then I'll talk to you when we come back." ”

"Okay." Qi Xiangsiquan didn't hear that, calmly watched them out, and then walked towards the pharmacy.

Zhu Yu was not there, and the dispensing pharmacy was not as busy as in the morning, Qi Xiangsi returned the food box brought back by the Taihe Palace and quickly returned to the courtyard, fetched a basin of water from the outside, took out the osmanthus cut from the Taihe Palace, and put it on the white cloth according to the position of the cut.

A fresh fragrance suddenly spread through the room.

Qi Xiangsi scooped water into a few bowls he found, soaked the cinnamon cut everywhere into the bowl, and gently stirred it with a thin wooden stick, and after a while, something floated on the water.

Qi Xiangsi brought them to the windowsill to look, three of them were the same, some extremely fine powder floated on the water surface, that was osmanthus pollen, and in the remaining two bowls, Qi Xiangsi found some differences, floating with pollen, like a layer of fine velvet.

Qi Xiangsi picked up some with a stick, and his eyes were really not very clear, so Qi Xiangsi picked up the black table that was not put in the water and shook it, and then squatted down and looked at the table at eye level, and saw a layer of fine velvet.

The osmanthus in the two bowls was cut from the windows of the main house of the Eight Princes and a few plants outside the main entrance, but the flowers and leaves of the osmanthus were not covered with such fine pile, so how did these stick to it?

Qi Xiangsi blew lightly, and the fine wool on the table flew into the air at once, invisible to the naked eye, but easy to be sucked into the nose and mouth.

Her nose still felt a little itchy after the previous sneezes, and these fine piles were the culprit, and if she inhaled them, they would inevitably cause coughing under irritation.

The eighth prince loves to drink tea, and when he heard what the palace maid said, he still drank some tea that relieves cough and nourishes his lungs, so this tea ......

Qi Xiangsi cut open the tea bag brought from the Taihe Palace from the basket, and put some loquat leaves and mulberry white skin in it, and added some dried osmanthus flowers, soaked in water, and did not appear what Qi Xiangsi had guessed.

"There's no problem with the tea." Qi Xiangsi muttered, what are these velvets.

Just thinking that there was the sound of dogwood outside, she pushed the door in and saw that she had placed so many bowls on the table and still soaked in cinnamon, and Zhuyu beckoned to her: "Doctor He is back, brought a lot of loquat leaves and said that he wants to boil loquat ointment, come, you go with me." ”

"Here it is." Qi Xiangsi put down the bowl and followed her, there were two frames of loquat leaves in the courtyard in front, several medical women had already brought a large bucket of water, to put these loquat leaves down to clean, Qi Xiangsi went over to help, scooped up the loquat leaves soaked in the water and washed them, rubbed his hands and rubbed his hands, Qi Xiangsi looked at the thick layer of fine velvet floating on the water surface, and the mouth suddenly opened. 166 Reading Network
