Chapter 12: Developing the Pill

With an unpredictable smile on her face, Empress Song said softly: "Ling'er, this embroidery work has worked hard for you." ”

The voice was very soft, but in Fang Ling, it sounded like he wanted to vomit, he endured his disgust, squeezed out a smile and said: "Niangniang has won the award, it is the duty of the son to be able to do something for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Niangniang." ”

"Oh, do you really think so?" Empress Song's eyes kept looking at his face, as if to discern whether he was telling the truth or a lie.

Fang Ling hurriedly expressed his loyalty, and said loudly: "The heart of the son, heaven and earth can be learned!"

Empress Song asked: "Then you don't blame me for taking the throne of your queen mother and not making you the crown prince?"

Fang Ling shook his head and said: "The reason why my queen mother was demoted to the cold palace is all because of the rebellion case, which has nothing to do with the queen's mother, really speaking, it is also my life." Being able to serve my mother in Binghua Palace for the rest of my life is already a great blessing for me. ”

Seeing that he was sincere, Empress Song said hypocritically: "Actually, I have always been very concerned about your mother and son, and I often remind your father and emperor to invite you out of the Binghua Palace, but your father and emperor hate rebellion the most in his life, and no matter how I persuade him, he will not agree." ”

Fang Ling said gratefully: "Thank you Niangniang for speaking for our mother and son, but Erchen also knows that his family is deeply sinful, and he doesn't dare to expect that one day when he leaves the palace, it is enough to be able to rely on his mother for the rest of his life." ”

Empress Song nodded and said: "It's rare to be filial piety, but I, the queen, can also be regarded as your mother, how can I bear to see your mother and son suffering?

Fang Ling is so smart, how can he not hear the meaning of this, Queen Song is still testing herself, he hurriedly said in fear: "Niangniang, don't do this, Erchen really has no intention of leaving the palace, he just wants to be with his mother, and he never wants to be treated as a prince." If the time comes, if the emperor is displeased, won't even the mother be blamed? ”

Queen Song pretended to be helpless and said: "Okay, then you can go back to accompany your mother, if there is any difficulty in the future, just come to me." ”

"Thank you for your kindness. Fang Ling respectfully thanked him, and then slowly retreated.

Watching Fang Ling leave, a smile rose on the corner of Empress Song's mouth, and she said mockingly: "Concubine Su's son is really like her mother, cowardly and stupid. ”

Father-in-law Jia put on a smile and said: "This is natural, this highness has grown up in the eyes of everyone since he was a child, and he naturally knows that his status is inferior, where do he dare to ask for anything?"

Empress Song said: "That's true, but you should also know that although I now have a lot of power in my hands and let the prince marry the prime minister's family, there are still many opposition forces inside and outside the court, and for these forces, the only chance to turn the tables is this great prince." ”

Father-in-law Jia smiled: "This Niangniang can rest assured, even if they are allowed to contact His Royal Highness, he is also a dou who can't be helped, what can he do?"

Empress Song said: "This is true, but I am more worried about the emperor." The emperor seems to have always had doubts about the rebellion case back then, and it seems that he even sent someone to secretly investigate. ”

Father-in-law Jia hurriedly said: "Niangniang, rest assured, I have already dealt with all the evidence and people, and I will never be dug up again." ”

Empress Song said: "That's good, in this way, the day of my son's accession to the throne will be a day to come." As for Su Guifei's mother and son, you have to monitor it closely, and if there is a little trouble, you must eradicate it immediately!"

"Yes, don't worry. Father-in-law Jia smiled.

Fang Ling walked out of the Chaoyang Hall and came to a secluded alley, only then he slammed his fist on the wall, his fist was cold, but only in this way could he keep the anger from exploding.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. In the palace, everyone wears a mask, whoever wears a better mask will be able to be exquisite, this Queen Song is so hypocritical, it is just to test herself, although she behaves very well, but Fang Ling has already smelled a hint of crisis, I don't know when, Queen Song is afraid that she will poison her mother and son.

Fang Ling gritted his teeth, he must, he must raise money as soon as possible, open up all joints, and escape from the palace with his mother one day earlier.

At this moment, a voice sounded in my ears: "Your Highness, why are you here?"

As soon as Fang Ling looked up, he found that it was Dong Canghai who came, so he told him what had happened.

Dong Canghai was furious when he heard this, and said angrily: "The queen mother is also too deceitful, how can she insult His Royal Highness so much? This kind of embroidery thing ......"

"Forget it, anger is not a solution, and it's worth it to be able to dispel her doubts in this way. Fang Ling said, "It's just that I'm worried, but she still doesn't want to rest assured." ”

Dong Canghai gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, even if you fight for my life, you will protect Niangniang and Your Highness!"

Fang Ling looked at him seriously and said, "Master, the only person I can truly believe in is you." By the way, how is the matter in the prison?"

Dong Canghai hurriedly said, "I just came back from the prison, and the female assassin seems to be still alive. ”

"It seems?" Fang Ling frowned, a little concerned about the word.

Dong Canghai replied, "I heard that the female assassin was severely injured by the Zhenguo Heavenly Master before she was sent to the Heavenly Prison, and then she was locked in the Ice and Fire Prison on the ninth floor of the Heavenly Prison. The flint on the top of this ice and fire prison is as hot as the blazing sun, and the pool below is extremely cold like frozen ice, ordinary people are put into it, and they suffer the pain of alternating cold and heat. Since the founding of the Chu State, after the Heavenly Prison was cast, only the most sinful people will be locked up in it. I finally asked someone to go in and have a look, but ordinary people in the ice and fire prison couldn't stand it, so I only glanced at the prison door, and according to his words, even if he didn't die, I was afraid that there was only one breath left. ”

Fang Ling said in a deep voice: "I know, I will raise three thousand taels soon." ”

Dong Canghai couldn't help but worry: "Although I don't know why His Highness wants to see that female assassin, three thousand taels of silver is not a small amount...... In case the female assassin dies after entering......"

Fang Ling didn't answer immediately, just walked forward slowly, and when he staggered past Dong Canghai, he said lightly: "Master, three thousand taels is indeed not a small amount, but it was for me before. The other masters don't need to ask any more, and they are ready to help me take care of it. ”

Dong Canghai was slightly stunned, looking at the back of Fang Ling leaving, he only felt that he seemed to have become a little different, a little incomprehensible. But no matter what His Highness wants to do, he, Dong Canghai, is willing to sacrifice for His Highness at any time.

The house rented by Fang Ling is in the relatively secluded alleys of Dongjie Street, and the winding alleys seem to be old, and even the ground is uneven.

The house has only two bedrooms, a master bedroom, a side bedroom plus a kitchen, and of course a large yard. The little white dog finally has a home, officially upgraded from a stray dog to a guard dog, although he has only followed Fang Ling for a few days, but every day the bun is served, there is some meat on his body, and the hair has become clean and tidy because he has been washed.

There are more than a dozen prescriptions in Fang Ling's hand, including Dilong, Qianghuo, Duhuo and the like. The general prescription for dispelling cold can be taken by decoction directly in water, but in order to achieve the maximum efficacy and the fastest treatment, the prescription of this hospital is also different in terms of pharmaceutical procedures, which is slightly more complicated.

And in order to make this medicine different from the medicine of the Tai Hospital, Fang Ling added an additional procedure on it to make it into a honey pill.

The so-called honey pill refers to the mixture of medicine and honey together to make a pill that can be preserved, which can be stored for a long time, and it is also easy to take, and with the sweetness of honey, it will taste much better for both children and adults.

The process of making honey pills is very complicated, in addition to boiling honey, the processing of medicinal materials is also a delicate job, fortunately, Fang Ling has seen a lot of it since he was a child in Tai Hospital, which is not difficult for him.

These more than a dozen herbs should first be divided into four categories, the first type should be carefully grinded, only by grinding into powder can the medicinal effect of these medicinal materials be dissipated, and quickly absorbed by the human body after dissolving, if it is a whole boiled in, the effect can not be completely released, it will also cause waste.

The second type is to be exposed to the sun, because the herbs will absorb some water during the storage period, but this kind of herbs must be dried and warmed, and then sliced into the medicine.

The third type is not directly into the medicine, but soaked in water to let its effect be absorbed by the water, and then the soaked water is used to cook the medicine.

The first three types of drugs are matched according to the proportional amount, and they can be decocted after washing.

Of course, frying is also a very delicate process, whether it is the heat or the hour, it needs to be grasped just right, fortunately, Fang Ling has not been decoction since he was a child, and he has also received some guidance from Imperial Doctor Chen.

It took an hour for Fang Ling to officially brew a medicinal soup, and only then did he use the fourth type of medicine.

The fourth type of medicine is a grass-stemmed plant, which does not need to be decocted, but is taken directly, and its use is that after the first three types of medicinal soup are decocted, they are put in, and after absorbing the medicinal juice, they are wrapped together with boiled honey.

Of course, once this pill is sold, it is likely to be known by the people in the palace, so Fang Ling deliberately reduced the amount of the medicine, the effect of the medicine is a little smaller, and the treatment time is estimated to be delayed for a day, plus after the honey is mixed with medicinal materials, it is difficult to judge its composition through the sense of smell and eyes, and in this way, it also reduces the possibility of being suspected.

By the early morning, a row of honey pills was finally ready. Fang Ling went outside to buy a few small porcelain bottles, bought a few buns by the way, and went back to the yard to eat them with the little white dog, and the honey pills were almost dry. Fang Ling put it into a porcelain bottle, and then fried a pair of medicinal soup that invigorated blood and dissolved stasis, and then went to Renxin Hall.
