The next day, the carriage of the eldest princess of Jingchen traveled on the main road into the palace.

In the carriage, Ah Chou and the eldest princess Jingchen spoke: "Listen to Your Highness, the Queen Mother's jade body has been taken care of by the Fu Yuan of the Tai Hospital all these years, and the emperor's dragon body is taken care of by the Xue Yuan, so except for the Xue Yuan's judgment, no one has ever seen the emperor's illness?" ”

"Xue Yuan's sentence is very popular with the emperor's brother," the words of the eldest princess Jingchen implied that there was only one person in Xue Yuan's judgment, "Do you suspect that Xue Yuanju is disloyal to the emperor?" ”

Ah Chou saw the still gentle smile of the eldest princess of Jingchen, but he was a little frightened, and hurriedly said: "Ah Chou doesn't dare to speculate!" The emperor's dragon body often violates the harmony, and it is always not good, perhaps because the Xue Yuan judged that some places were not well considered, and it may not be said that it was not cured at all. ”

The eldest princess of Jingchen bowed: "It's not impossible, I heard that Xue Yuan was young and studied under the medical master Dou Yang Lao, but the next day told me that you also won Yang Lao when you were in Qian County, so anyone who says that Xue Yuan's judgment is not accurate, I have to be suspicious, except for you." You do have the confidence to say that the Xue Yuan is not good. Her tone was kind, trusting and sincere.

"The eldest princess has won the prize!" Ugly was a little apprehensive. The medical champion Yang Lao, even the eldest princess knows the medical champion, what kind of medical champion is that? Yang Lao is so famous?

Also, the dispute between her and Yang Lao over warm malaria, how could Xia Yichen tell his mother this?

Well, that guy never played his cards according to common sense.

"This time, I recommend you to the imperial brother, and I don't know if I can make it. But there's always something to be found. "The eldest princess of Jingchen is at ease.

Ah Chou nodded: "The matter of the queen's mother last time, the two court sentences are obviously very suspicious, if you continue to block it again and again this time, I'm afraid there will be some problems." ”

The carriage soon arrived at the emperor's bedroom, Zichen Palace.

Ah Chou followed the eldest princess of Jingchen and entered the Zichen Palace.

When the eldest princess saw the queen, she hurriedly greeted her. The queen took her hand. worried: "The emperor has been sick all the time these days, and this palace is ...... in my heart" said and choked up a little.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law," the eldest princess of Jingchen patted her hand and comforted, "What is the name of the imperial doctor, why is he suddenly so sick?" ”

"Xue Yuan said that the emperor's illness has a lot to do with emotions. The more angry you are, the more dangerous it becomes. The queen sighed.

"Then there is no way to revive the emperor?" The eldest princess of Jingchen looked suspicious.

The queen looked at the Xue Yuan judge waiting outside the hall, and then looked at the emperor lying on the dragon couch in the hall, and then thought about her previous poisoning, and then understood what the eldest princess Jingchen meant.

"The ugly who saw the queen's sister-in-law last time." The eldest princess of Jingchen pulled Ah Chou out, "It's good to let her see, one more person has more hope." ”

Ugly saluted the queen again.

The queen naturally recognized Ah Chou, she hesitated for a moment, and then ignored the imperial doctors. invited Ah Chou to check the emperor's pulse.

Now in this situation, the emperor can get better sooner. Actually, it's a good thing. Otherwise, only the prince will be responsible for the major affairs of the court. What if someone takes the opportunity to do a few tricky things, and the prince can't stand it? Especially if they deliberately make the emperor not get better, it will be even more dangerous, and I don't know what their next move will be.

Over the years, she has not run the hospital, and she can't find a suitable candidate for the placement, even if she is inserted. It is also a lack of medical skills, which is embarrassing and useful. It would be a good thing to take this opportunity to purge the Tai Hospital now.

Just when the queen had made all the calculations, Xue Yuanju ran forward and stopped Ah Ugly: "Queen Mother." This woman's origin is unknown, what if it is unfavorable to the emperor? ”

After all, diagnosing the pulse is a close-up job, and he has a bit of truth in it, in case he wants to poison him, it is very convenient.

"Xue Yuan judged," Ah Chou bowed, "When Ah Chou was in Qian County, he often went in and out of the Xue Clan's Medical Hall, and he also had some friendship with the respected teacher Yang Lao. Then he said no more.

As long as the listener thinks about these few words, he can distinguish many meanings.

Ah Chou wanted to say that the Xue family and her were in the same boat, and the Xue court ruled that she would be unfavorable to the emperor, that is, he harbored a person who would be unfavorable to the emperor?

Or maybe Ah Chou wants to use the reputation of Yang Lao to protect himself, which means that even your master trusts me, and you jump out to suspect me like this, are you disobeying your master?

Xue Yuan didn't understand Ah Chou's deep meaning, but one thing was for sure - Ah Chou had made up his mind to diagnose the emperor's pulse today.

"The woman's yin qi is too heavy, and I am afraid that it is not appropriate to diagnose the emperor's pulse." Xue Yuan's judgment brought out another reason.

Ah Chou spread his hands: "The court judged that the adult's words are wrong, and the woman can't get close to the emperor if she is heavy, and the queen mother who often comes to visit at that time, what should I do with my son's heartfelt feelings?" Day and night to take care of the emperor's queen mother, isn't it because of your words that it has changed from merit to fault? What's more, it is still difficult to say whether the emperor is yang deficiency or yin deficiency. I'm afraid the court sentenced the adults to make a conclusion so early, right? ”

Xue Yuan was shocked into a cold sweat by these words. Pull the queen mother in, this woman is too bold, right?

"This palace knows," the queen mother, who had never spoken, spoke, "The hospital is full of talents, and it is the talents who always have to maintain their dignity, and it is indeed hurting your face to let a little girl come to diagnose the pulse." But is your face important, or is the emperor's dragon health important? ”

This sentence is so powerful that no one dares to refute it. It sounds a little unreasonable, but the monarch is on top, who dares to say half a "no"?

Xue Yuanju retreated with a dazed expression.

Ah Chou glanced at Xue Yuanju, who lowered his head, and turned around and walked towards the dragon couch.

The true face of the Son of Heaven, she is not so bold that she doesn't dare to look directly, but she can still do it with her peripheral eyes.

After looking at it, she came to the conclusion that the crown prince Mu Tianhong and the emperor looked quite alike. On the other hand, his biological mother, the queen, is not so similar to the crown prince.

It stands to reason that the father should like a son who is similar to himself, why is the prince not as good as the fourth prince to please the emperor?

However, Ah Chou thought about it, and maybe the emperor liked Concubine Zhao very much, and he might not love the house and Wu.

Thinking like this, she put her fingertips on the bright yellow silk silk on the emperor's wrist to diagnose the pulse.

Time passed little by little, and the eyebrows under the ugly veil became more and more frowning-

She had never seen such a complex vein!

If it is just a disease and no medication, then it is not enough to be called complicated. But after so many years of baptism with various drugs, the emperor's physique has undergone a lot of changes, making this condition particularly complicated.

After a while, Ah Chou put down his hand to diagnose the pulse and sighed.

The queen looked a little worried: "How?" ”

"Back to the queen's mother, the emperor is phlegm coughing and vomiting blood, yin is deficient in qi, and the people's daughter has a recipe to suppress these symptoms." A clown salute and a very humble appearance.

"That's good, you can write it." The queen nodded, and instructed the eunuch to take the pen and ink.

Stir-fried ginseng five coins. Fried citigalus four money. Fried atractylodes three money. Yun Ling tablets three money. Fried vermicelli is a penny and a penny. Fried yam three money. Fried lentils for three bucks. Chen orange peel is a penny and five cents. Chen papaya is a penny and five cents. Wine fried white peony for one dollar and five cents. [1]

Ah Chou handed over the prescription, knowing that someone must study it carefully, so as not to prescribe any medicine that would be unfavorable to the emperor. So he didn't care about the rest of the matter, but squinted at Xue Yuanju, who was standing outside the hall.

Xue Yuanju has not moved, as if what happened in the hall has nothing to do with him.

Ugly couldn't help but squint.

When he left the palace, Ah Chou sat in the carriage of the eldest princess of Jingchen before he spoke the truth: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, Ah Chou wants to see the record of the medicine used by the emperor in the Tai Hospital over the years. ”

The faint smile of the eldest princess froze: "What clues did you find?" ”

Ah Chou shook his head: "It's not a clue, it's just a suspicion." The emperor's dragon body has become more complicated because of the medication over the years, and it is difficult to tell whether there is something wrong with it for a while. What is certain is that it is definitely inappropriate for the emperor to take medicine every day all these years. It is a three-point poison, if no matter what minor illness or small pain or even no disease and no pain, the emperor still takes medicine every day, and after years and months, the problem will be big! ”

"As far as I know," the eldest princess tilted her head slightly, as if she was recalling something, "about many years ago, the imperial brother used medicine in his mouth, almost every day like a meal......

"This is exactly the problem, it is a three-point poison, even if there is no problem, there will be a problem with eating. So Ah Chou implored a view of the hospital's filing. Ugly pleaded.

"But if someone deliberately deceives and writes a recipe in the record, but in fact it is another recipe, how can you tell it?" The eldest princess of Jingchen was worried.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, the recipe for the record must also match the emperor's current dragon body condition, and Ah Chou will believe it. If it just doesn't work, it means that something went wrong in the middle, and someone deliberately did something. Ugly explained his thoughts.

The eldest princess of Jingchen took a deep breath: "What you said makes sense, but I am afraid that it is impossible to go to the hospital to see it blatantly, and if you don't say it, it will cause a bad reaction." I'll think of other ways. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Ugly solemnly thanked.

If you had a calendar record, the rest would be much easier.

When I returned home, as soon as I entered the door, Nianxin greeted me and was a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?" Ugly asked, "What's the point?" ”

Nianxin opened her mouth and said the reason: "Mrs. Ding sent a letter, does the girl read it?" If I don't look at it, I'll burn it. ”

Aunt Ding was afraid that she was going to follow her son to the northwest, so she sent a letter before leaving, what did it mean.

"Since it's all delivered, you won't lose a few taels of meat if you look at it." It's all the same country, so why find fault and worry too much?

Nian Xin handed the letter into the hands of Ugly.

Ugly opened the envelope and read it.
