"Oh-" The emperor seemed to have just seen Taohua, "why did she enter the palace?" ”

"I called her. I heard that her medical skills are good, but Lu Baolin's illness was even misdiagnosed by the imperial doctors, or was she diagnosed? Lu Baolin has been better for most of these days, and I also want to see what kind of miracle doctor the Jiang family has. Can you give me a diagnosis and cure my gastrointestinal problems? ”

The emperor laughed: "The divine doctor may not be able to say it, but some medical skills are true." Since the queen mother wants her to be treated, why does she kneel so far. As he spoke, he raised his voice, "Jiang, why don't you hurry up and come over to check the pulse of the Queen Mother?" ”

Taohua was finally able to stand up, but she felt that her knees were almost numb, not to mention, her two calves were as uncomfortable as pinprick insect bites, and she gritted her teeth to maintain normal steps and walked in front of the queen mother, but saw that the palace maid did not bring a stool over, obviously planning to let her kneel to check the pulse again.

Shen Shu sat silently on the side after coming in and saluting the Queen Mother, but then suddenly said: "Although the Jiang family has practiced medicine for generations, but she has a daughter's family, if she says that she knows some medicinal materials, what kind of medical skills do you know, I'm afraid it was just a coincidence that Lu Baolin was cured, right?" If it weren't for the misdiagnosis of the palace doctor, could she still be cured of tuberculosis? ”

The emperor smiled: "King Anjun should not always look down on the Jiang family, at least she diagnosed Lu Baolin as not tuberculosis, and she has some ability." ”

Shen Shu looked disbelieving, got up and picked up the porcelain pier he was sitting on, and put it in front of Taohua: "Then hurry up and diagnose the pulse of the Queen Mother and see if you have the ability." ”

Momoka glanced up at him. Shen Shu's expression looked calm, but his sideburns were already soaked with sweat, as if he was running through the sun. I also know that the emperor can't come so coincidentally, he must have heard the news and rushed over. But Shen Shu lives outside the palace, why did he appear together? It can't be that you came here after hearing the news, right?

Taohua sat down on the porcelain pier. No matter why she entered the palace, Shen Shu has handed over this embroidered pier now, so that she will not continue to kneel, which is already very interesting. She should still reveal more about Cui Xiuwan to him......

The Queen Mother glanced at Shen Shu unhappily, and did not ask the palace maid to move the chair for Shen Shu again, but just reclined on the seat and stretched out her hand condescendingly.

Taohua restrained her distracting thoughts, carefully checked her pulse on both hands, and her brows couldn't help frowning slightly. The Queen Mother has some liver inflammation, and her spleen and stomach are also a little weak due to summer, but she should not have symptoms of vomiting from time to time, she should have a loss of appetite and do not think about eating.

"May I ask my aunt, when did the Queen Mother start vomiting, and did the diet on that day change from the previous days? Has the Queen Mother's diet been adjusted recently, and the prescriptions she has used recently, can you please take it from my aunt and let me have a look? ”

The palace maid beside the Queen Mother was not afraid that Taohua would ask her questions, and she was stunned and looked at the Queen Mother.

Without waiting for the Queen Mother to speak, the Queen snorted first: "Where did you get these many questions, haven't you already diagnosed the pulse?" ”

Taohua stood up and bowed to the queen, and then said: "The doctor has four diagnoses, looking and hearing, asking questions, and the people watching the queen mother's expression and diagnosing the queen mother's pulse, there should be no vomiting, so I am suspicious of the daily diet, so I should ask about it." ”

The emperor laughed and said, "You are quite presentable, but when you saw Lu Baolin that day, why didn't you ask her about her diet?" ”

He said it so easily, as if it was normal for Taohua to diagnose Lu Ying's pulse. The queen couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, Lu Baolin privately summoned people from outside the palace to the palace to check the pulse, which is not in line with the palace rules." ”

Taohua hurriedly bent her knees again: "Back to Niangniang's words, Minnu and Lu Baolin were old acquaintances when they were in Wuxi. The courtiers did not enter the palace at the invitation of Lu Baolin, they came to visit her sister with her aunt, and when she heard that Lu Baolin was seriously ill, she wanted to see her one last time......"

"Really? So your medical skills are really good, better than even the imperial doctors? The queen was not very happy. Lu Ying, who was about to fend for herself, was about to fend for herself, but now she is almost better, this Jiang San girl in front of her is really eventful!

"It's not that the female doctors are better than the doctors, but that there is a difference between men and women, and the doctors can only cut the pulse of the mother and ask about the daily condition, but it is not good to carefully examine the face and body of the mother. And the folk girl carefully looked at Lu Baolin's throat, and stuck it on Lu Baolin's back and listened to the sound of her breathing, which was confirmed. The doctors couldn't do that, so it was more difficult to identify the symptoms. ”

At this time, the palace maid had already taken all the prescriptions under the instructions of the queen mother, and Taohua was looking at them one by one, and the little palace maid had already come in with a bowl of medicine outside: "The queen mother, it's time to take medicine." ”

The queen mother's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled, she raised her hand to cover her mouth, and retched, startling the palace maids one after another, and even the emperor and queen were busy stroking their backs and sending water.

Taohua couldn't help but glance at the bowl of medicine, and asked the palace maid in a low voice, "What is this?" ”

"It is to cure the eye disease of the Queen Mother." The palace maid is the queen mother's henchman, although she knows that the queen mother intends to embarrass the third girl Jiang, but she hopes that someone can cure the queen mother, so she also replied carefully, "The queen mother has been a little dizzy since the New Year this year, and she will cry in the wind. It's just that I've been in a bad mood lately, and this eye disease has become serious again. ”

Taohua nodded: "The liver is the main eye, the liver is on fire, and it will affect the eyes." While speaking, he found a prescription for eye diseases and looked at it, "The Queen Mother has been taking this medicine for several months, has it had any effect before?" ”

The palace maid understood what she meant, and immediately said, "No." The Queen Mother has been taking this medicine for a long time, and she has no vomiting. ”

Seeing that there is indeed no medicine in this prescription that will particularly stimulate the gastrointestinal tract, Taohua read all the prescriptions while observing the Queen Mother's expression, and asked at the same time: "When was the Queen Mother's first vomiting, and did anything happen at that time?" ”

The palace maid was suddenly embarrassed. The Queen Mother vomited for the first time, of course, she was angry with Huang Gonggong, but how could she say this, so she had to say vaguely: "The Queen Mother was a little angry that day, and she vomited out soon after taking medicine......"

Taohua immediately asked: "Why is the Queen Mother angry?" ”

This palace person was even more difficult to answer, so he only said: "It's also that the people below are ignorant and made the queen mother angry......"

The Queen Mother drank the medicine for eye diseases with a frown, and in a blink of an eye saw Taohua was pondering with the prescription one by one, and suddenly felt nauseous, and before she could turn her head, she vomited again, Taohua was closer, and she was also vomited half of her body, and a skirt was full of dirt.

The palace maids all exclaimed, and someone stepped forward to stroke the queen mother's back, and the palace maid who had just spoken said to Taohua: "Miss Jiang, change your clothes-"

Before she finished speaking, Taohua had already hurriedly stepped forward, squeezed away a little palace maid, and grabbed the queen mother's hand: "Let me diagnose the queen mother's pulse again." "Now the Queen Mother is vomiting, this is a rare time to get sick, and it is time to see if there is any change in the pulse.

The taste of the Chinese medicine is not very good, and it is vomited after drinking it, and the smell is pungent. It was the height of summer, and the clothes Taohua was wearing were few and thin, and a skirt and silk pants inside were wet with the medicine spit out by the Queen Mother, sticking to her legs, exuding an unpleasant smell, and even the little palace maid on the side couldn't help but turn her head.

Taohua didn't feel it at all, so she just held the queen mother's hand and carefully checked her pulse. The Emperor stood aside and looked at her a little distracted. The queen couldn't help but look at her carefully, and suddenly as if she had thought of something, her eyes flashed slightly, not only did she not come forward to serve the queen mother, but she took a step back slightly, and looked at Taohua carefully in a different direction.

This qiē Taohua didn't pay attention at all. Shen Shu was also looking at Taohua in a daze, but he stood a little farther away, everyone was in his field of vision, and the queen withdrew when everyone was crowding forward, which attracted his attention. I saw that the queen glanced at Taohua a few times, moved her position again, and almost stood behind the emperor to look, and then her face slowly sank.

Shen Shu took this qiē in his eyes, and was pondering the meaning of the queen's actions in his heart, when he saw Taohua frowning and letting go of his hand, and asked the queen mother: "Does Niangniang feel any discomfort?" Do you have abdominal pain? ”

The Queen Mother vomited, and she was completely depleted, and said angrily: "No." Just suddenly I felt nauseous and nauseous. The smell of your body, go and change your clothes. Then he said to the emperor, "I'm going to rest for a while, and the emperor can just go about his own business." With that, he was surrounded by the palace ladies and went to the apse.

The little palace maid stepped forward and was about to lead Taohua to change her clothes, when the queen suddenly screamed: "Third girl Jiang, have you diagnosed the queen mother's illness?" ”

Before Taohua could answer, the emperor was already slightly displeased and said: "The queen mother asked her to change her clothes first, how can she still talk back with such a smell." Don't go yet! The last sentence was said to the little palace maid.

Taohua didn't bring a change of clothes when she entered the palace, so she could only change the clothes of the little palace maid in the side hall. This little palace maid was about the same age as her, but she was a little shorter, and her clothes were worn on her body to show her hands and feet, so she had to barely make do with her answers.

At this time, the queen had already sat down in her seat again, staring at Taohua coldly, but said to the emperor: "The emperor still has something to do in the previous dynasty, so let's go and get busy first, there are concubines here." ”

The emperor also sat still: "I am also worried about the illness of the queen mother, so I have to listen to it." Then without waiting for the queen to speak, he said to Taohua gently, "You just checked the pulse of the queen mother, but you can diagnose the cause?" ”

Taohua shook her head: "Even when the Queen Mother vomits, she can't see anything wrong on her pulse." "In fact, except for a weak pulse, the Queen Mother basically has no major problems, and there are only two things that can be diagnosed - inflammation of the liver and a slight deficiency of the spleen and stomach. The former is due to a poor mood, and the latter is a common appearance of the elderly in summer, which is not enough to cause her to vomit every day.

"So you didn't see anything at all?" The queen raised her voice, "What's the use of you?" ”

I didn't volunteer to come to see you...... Taohua sneered, but she could only kneel down, "The folk girl knows that she is shallow in her knowledge, and she doesn't dare to compare with the imperial doctors." ”

The queen choked. None of the envoys of the Tai Hospital diagnosed the Queen Mother's illness, and it seemed natural that Taohua could not diagnose it. She was just about to say something more, but the emperor had already turned his head and asked, "Who asked Miss Jiang San to come to check the pulse of the Queen Mother?" ”

The queen said without thinking: "It was Wu Baolin who was concerned about the Queen Mother, and I heard that Jiang Jieyu had found a miracle doctor to cure Lu Baolin, so she mentioned it to the Queen Mother." ”

"Miracle Doctor?" The emperor repeated coldly, "Jiang Jieyu said that she found a miracle doctor?" ”

The queen said confidently: "Although Jiang Jieyu didn't say it, if she wasn't a miracle doctor, why didn't she let the imperial doctor in the palace use it, but found someone from outside to diagnose the pulse?" After saying that, he looked at Taohua with disdain, "The palace also said that the Jiang family really had some miracle doctor, it turned out to be just a lie." It's no wonder that the Jiang family couldn't even save the virtuous concubine back then, what kind of big and small imperial doctors, generations of medical skills - hum, what good medical skills did they have when they started with street rattles, but they were lucky enough to cure a few minor diseases. Otherwise, why is there no descendant to practice medicine in the future, is it afraid that people will expose it? ”

Finally, Lu Baolin himself got sick and had to move out to fend for himself, but he was rescued again. The queen didn't dare to say anything to the emperor, so she transferred all her anger to Taohua, gushing out her unspeakable jealousy.

Momoka began to listen patiently. She had a clue about the Queen Mother's illness, but in view of the Queen Mother's attitude, she didn't plan to say it. Today, Yu Shi entered the palace with her, so that the queen mother's summons ended in a hurry, and she didn't even blame her clearly. Although she hadn't understood the strangeness here, it was obviously better to leave the palace early. As for the Queen Mother, it's not a serious illness anyway, it's just a few more vomits.

But the queen's accusations are not over. Taohua found that she was not just angry, but really felt that the Jiang family had two imperial doctors in the palace who did not live up to their names, and really regarded the death of Concubine Xian as Jiang Fanghui's incompetence, and regarded the resignation of the old lady Jiang as a weak heart.

The emperor frowned slightly, and tried to stop the queen twice, but he couldn't shake his face because the queen was concerned about the queen mother's illness - even if the queen only cared about it on the surface, and actually used the topic to play, so he coughed lightly twice, and the queen didn't pay attention at all, and still said to herself: "...... Relying on knowing some fur, he swaggered around. I heard that you climbed to the Nanhua County Lord in Wuxi? If you can diagnose the happy pulse, you dare to come to the palace to treat the concubine? Bengong remembered that your grandfather was like this at the beginning, because he made a pill, he was recommended by Doctor Jiang-"

"Queen Mother-" Taohua finally couldn't help it, "My grandfather and uncle have been working in the Tai Hospital for more than ten years, and if I didn't have real talent and learning, I wouldn't have been able to stay for a long time." ”

"Sister Tao-" Yu Shi came into the palace from the emperor and stood silently in the corner of the main hall like a shadow, at this time when he heard Taohua's rebuttal, he was immediately startled, and hurriedly stopped him.

Taohua didn't look at her at all, but just straightened up and faced the queen: "The ancestor did make a mistake when the first concubine died, but if the first grandfather was determined to only know some fur skills, it would be a little biased." ”

"Huh?" The queen laughed angrily, "You still argue with this palace?" Hello bold! ”

"If the mother blames the people's daughter, the people's daughter has nothing to say, if she blames the grandfather, please forgive the people's daughter for having to argue."

Yu Shi looked eager to come up and cover Taohua's mouth, but the emperor coughed again: "That's it, it's all in the past, it's useless to talk about it." Jiang, since you can't cure the queen mother, the queen should blame you, go back and close the door for a month, don't be so publicized in the future. ”

Taohua replied angrily, and was about to get up and withdraw, but the queen was annoyed: "What kind of punishment is closed for a month?" The Jiang family dared to send such a person into the palace to treat the Queen Mother, and if it couldn't be cured, the Jiang family should be asked about its crimes! ”

The emperor was also a little annoyed: "The Jiang family didn't let her come to the queen mother for treatment, didn't the queen mother summon her here?" Who recommended her in front of the queen mother, and if you want to ask for sin, ask that person to go! It's Wu Baolin, isn't it? Hearsay dared to introduce the queen mother to come forward, and regarded the queen mother as something! Don't do this Baolin, immediately demote to a color girl! ”

Cai Nu is the lowest class among the concubines of this dynasty, and the Cai Nu from Baolin is two levels in a row, and if there is no big mistake, it will definitely not be treated like this. The queen was stunned for a moment, she didn't want to disobey the emperor for a Wu Baolin, but at a glance, she saw Taohua's slightly lowered side face, and the outline was six or seven points similar to that of a certain person, and suddenly she was angry, and said coldly: "Although it was recommended by Wu Baolin, Jiang Jieyu also said in front of the Queen Mother, Jiang San Girl volunteered to enter the palace to diagnose her pulse, and later diagnosed and treated Lu Baolin. Since she dared to recommend herself, why couldn't Wu Baolin recommend her? ”

These words were actually strong words, but Taohua didn't pay much attention, what she paid attention to was what the queen said about Jiang Meihua - Jiang Meihua said that she volunteered to diagnose her pulse?

The emperor asked almost at the same time: "What did Jiang Jieyu say?" ”

The queen straightened her chest and said confidently: "The Queen Mother summoned Jiang Jieyu and asked her why she dared to let her sisters come to Lu Baolin for treatment, aren't you afraid of delaying Lu Baolin's condition?" Jiang Jieyu said that she had also stopped Miss Jiang San, but Miss Jiang said that she would definitely be able to cure Lu Baolin. Moreover, Miss Jiang San had already diagnosed and treated her before, and it was quite effective, so she dared to recommend it to Lu Baolin's ......"

Yu Shi was a little shocked when he heard it next to him, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at the agarwood.

Agarwood accompanied Yu and the others to Shouxian Palace, and they have been standing outside the palace gate, and they can't help but secretly cry bitter in their hearts at this moment. She originally planned to go to Jiang's house to inform Xiao's about these things, but she hurried all the way and couldn't find a chance to tell Xiao's alone.

In fact, things are still a little different from what the queen said. Wu Baolin told the Queen Mother that someone had entered the palace for Lu Ying's treatment, and the Queen Mother summoned Jiang Meihua over and asked her why she dared to violate the palace rules to let outsiders enter the palace for the concubine to treat the disease, Jiang Meihua was not charged with "privately introducing outsiders into the palace", so she confessed Taohua, and said that she was her sister, and she let Taohua enter the palace at the beginning only because her sisters had not seen her for many years, and she only saw her in the palace.

As for saying that she had prevented Taohua from treating Lu Ying, Jiang Meihua did say it, but it was only to exonerate herself in front of the Queen Mother, so she said it casually, but she didn't expect the queen to be able to say it all in front of the emperor like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

Agarwood quietly glanced at the emperor with some trepidation. Speaking of Jiang Meihua's statement, it has already covered up the emperor's intention to find someone to treat Lu Baolin, but he just put the fault on Taohua, the emperor should not be angry with Jieyu Niangniang, right? This statement is actually the best for both Jieyu and the emperor......

Seeing that the emperor didn't speak, the queen felt that she was even more reasonable, and raised her hand and nodded Taohua: "Since this girl dares to recommend herself, she should have some ability." Can't even diagnose the Queen Mother's illness, can't the palace punish her? ”

"The Queen Mother's vomiting should be a psychological cause." Momoka knelt on the ground and suddenly opened her mouth.

"What?" The queen was stunned, "Mental cause? ”

"Please summon the palace people who are waiting for the Queen Mother to inquire." Taohua's voice was calm, but her heart was full of anger.

"What are you asking?" The emperor opened his mouth gently, "The Queen Mother's illness is helpless even for the envoys of the Imperial Hospital, so don't bother the Queen Mother anymore." ”

Taohua understood what the emperor meant, the hospital envoys couldn't cure the disease, and it wasn't a big crime if she couldn't cure it, even if the queen wanted to punish her, with the emperor by her side, she wouldn't be punished heavily.

But she still said: "The folk girl suspects that the empress dowager's vomiting is on the bowl of decoction for treating eye diseases, so she wants to ask about something." ”

Looking at the boxes of medical manuscripts left behind in Wuxi's old family, you can know that the Jiang family is not fame-fishing. Looking at the old lady Jiang who is still thinking hard about Shen Shu's eyes, you can know that the Jiang family is not selling medical skills for the sake of power, and the queen doesn't understand it, why does she despise the Jiang family so much!

The emperor frowned slightly: "The Queen Mother has been taking the decoction for eye diseases for a long time...... but he still summoned the palace maid beside the Queen Mother.

Taohua's first question was: "Is the Queen Mother very disgusted every time she takes medicine?" ”

The palace maid thought for a moment: "Didn't it at first...... But later...... "She didn't notice that the Queen Mother didn't know when she became disgusted with the decoction for eye diseases, and until now she wants to retch when she sees the decoction, "but this may be because the medicine has been changed several times and it is ineffective, and the Queen Mother is reluctant to drink the medicine, and even the decoction that stops rebellion now, the Queen Mother does not want to drink ......it."

Taohua asked: "When did the Queen Mother start to be disgusted with decoction, does my aunt still remember?" ”

Although she is a palace maid who waits closely, because there are too many things to manage, this question really can't be answered, but there is a little palace maid next to her who wants to speak and stop, Shen Shu's eyes are sharp, and she gestured to the emperor, and the emperor immediately nodded at her: "You say." ”

The little palace maid trembled and said: "The slave maid is for the queen mother, so the queen mother uses medicine, and the slave and maid are all beside her." "The Queen Mother wants to rinse her mouth after drinking the medicine, and this little palace maid is holding a gargle to receive mouthwash, although she is doing the most inferior work, but she is also serving by the Queen Mother's side.

"The slave maid remembered that day the Queen Mother went to the garden outside at noon and walked a few steps, and when she came back, she asked for a prescription for eye diseases, and then the sister who was in charge of the decoction brought the medicine, and the Queen Mother looked a little displeased......

Taohua immediately asked again: "Who accompanied the Queen Mother to the garden that day?" ”

"It's Aunt Zheng, but she was sick a few days ago and has moved out."

Once the slaves and maids in the palace are sick, they can no longer stay by the master's side, and they have to move out to a unified place to recuperate, saying that they are recuperating, but in fact, whether they can be good or not depends on luck, but since Aunt Zheng is a face-saving person around the queen mother, she thinks that the treatment will be much better than that of ordinary palace people. The emperor immediately called someone: "Go and ask, what happened to the queen mother in the garden that day?" ”
