"Manager Zhao, don't make fun of me, I really don't dare to come after you do this." Liu Hu was fighting with him. In terms of grade, he is still one level higher than Zhao Fang, but in the palace, don't think that grade is everything, Zhao Fang has been in charge of the imperial pharmacy for many years, and the new monarch has ascended the throne, and he can still sit in this position, which is enough to prove his skills and ability. Therefore, in front of Zhao, Liu Hu never dared to hold it up.

Zhao Fang squinted and smiled: "Okay, no kidding, but then again, Leader Liu doesn't have to be on duty today, he has time to come to our house." ”

Liu Hu smiled and said: "If you are not on duty in the palace, how can you come to my father-in-law's place, I have been suffering from abdominal pain and diarrhea from time to time recently, and I have been suffering from abdominal pain and diarrhea for several days, and my feet are a little weak." Remembering that my father-in-law was in charge of the imperial pharmacy, I wanted to come to my father-in-law to ask for a few medicines to eat, but I don't know if my father-in-law would be willing to make it convenient. ”

"Okay, you Boss Liu, you dare to come to our house to ask for benefits." Zhao Fang said this, but there was no displeasure on his face, it was not the first time he thought of such a thing, and then he said with some embarrassment: "But our family is not a doctor, I don't know the cause of your abdominal pain, and this medicine is not easy to match!" According to our family, you should first find a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, and then come to get medicine. He was right.

"It's okay, my father-in-law has been in the imperial pharmacy for many years, and he is familiar with pharmacology, so he can just give a few flavors at will, even if it's not right, he can't eat dead people left and right." Liu Hu looked disapplieving.

Seeing that he refused to listen to persuasion, Zhao Fang had no choice but to follow his own pharmacology and let the little eunuch go to the medicine cabinets as high as the roof to get medicine. After getting his hands on it, he didn't give it to Liu Hu immediately, but first took out a thick booklet from the innermost drawer and wrote down the medicines one by one.

Liu Hu's heart moved, knowing that this must be the booklet that Hongli had in mind, and he poked his head cautiously at the moment, wanting to see the record of aconitum and snake venom from above, but before he could look at it twice, Zhao Fang noticed his actions, closed the booklet vigilantly, and said with a smile: "Leader Liu seems to be very interested in our booklet?" ”

Liu Hu didn't expect Zhao Fang's vigilance to be so high, and said with a wry smile: "No, I'm just a little curious, do my father-in-law have to record every time I take a medicine?" ”

"This is natural, the things in the imperial pharmacy are recorded in the book regardless of entering and leaving, not that our family boasts, the imperial pharmacy has not been missing anything in our hands over the years, and when the first emperor was alive, he also praised our family for being cautious and careful." Speaking of this, Zhao Fang was complacent.

"My father-in-law is very thoughtful and very human, which really impresses me." Liu Hu was patting his ass there, but Zhao Fang was obviously a little wary of him because of what happened just now, and he was no longer as good at talking as he was just now, and after recording the medicines one by one, he handed them to Liu Hu and said: "Take these medicines back, fry them in three bowls of water, twice a day, if they don't take effect after two days, find a doctor to take a look." ”

"Thank you, father-in-law." Liu Hu said gratefully.

"Well, if there's nothing to do, go back, in case people see you sneaking out quietly, but it's not good, we still have something to do here, so we won't stay longer." Zhao Fang waved his hand to signal Liu Hu to leave.

"If you want to talk about my errand, even if you leave for a day, no one will necessarily find out." Liu Hu deliberately said this to attract Zhao Fang's attention.

Sure enough, as soon as his voice fell, Zhao Fang, who was already about to leave, stopped and said curiously: "Oh? Why didn't our family know that there was such a good errand in Ludao, and no one ordered it? ”

Liu Hu pretended to be mysterious and said: "Doesn't my father-in-law know the way? I'm now sent to take care of the Chengqian Palace, and no one cares about it now, as long as the people inside don't come out. ”

"I see." Zhao Fang suddenly realized, he knew about the matter of the Chengqian Palace, I heard that yesterday there was a night in the Kunning Palace, and the imperial doctor took turns to go inside, and today the news came out, saying that Concubine Xi was grounded, the second elder brother was poisoned, and the palace maid of the Chengqian Palace was imprisoned in the Shen Criminal Division. Although Zhao Fang only listened to a few words, he also guessed that the water inside must be very deep.

Liu Hu deliberately aroused Zhao Fang's appetite, and deliberately lowered his voice: "I also heard that the poison in the second elder brother contains aconitum and snake venom, both of which are highly poisonous, father-in-law, where do you say this poison comes from?" ”

Zhao Fang was shocked, because he remembered that he had these two herbs here, and some time ago, a doctor had come to take them, and he didn't know if it was related to this matter, "This matter has nothing to do with us, so it's better not to ask more; Okay, our family still has something to do, so we won't leave Leader Liu more. As he spoke, he was about to order someone to send off the guest, but he was pulled by Liu Hu, "Father-in-law, there is still someone who wants to see you." ”

Liu Hu knew that he alone would not be able to convince Zhao Fang, who was extremely slick in his work, so he could only take him to see Hongli.

"Who wants to see us?" Zhao Fang asked strangely, Liu Hu didn't answer, just pulled him out, and when he walked outside and stood in front of Hongli, Zhao Fang couldn't help but be a little stunned, Fourth Elder Brother, he ...... Why is he here?

After coming back to his senses, he pointed to Liu Hu's nose and exclaimed, "You...... Liu Hu, you actually brought the fourth elder brother out? You're so bold, don't you want to die? "The whole palace of Chengqian Palace has been grounded, but the fourth elder brother is standing in front of him like this, who else will bring him out except Liu Hu.

"Chief Manager Zhao misunderstood, it was Huang Ama who allowed me to leave the Chengqian Palace, and it has nothing to do with Leader Liu." Hongli saw Liu Hu appear with Zhao Fang, and knew that he couldn't convince Zhao Fang alone, but he didn't understand, wasn't he afraid that Zhao Fang would go to tell someone, Huang Ama might not punish himself heavily, but there were countless pairs of eyes staring at him in the palace, they were not Huang Ama and would not be kind to him, but he hated to see that he made a mistake in order to fall into the well.

"Even so, what are you doing here with the old slave? The old slave didn't know anything, he didn't know anything. Zhao Fang tried hard to clear up the relationship, and wanted to send the little ancestor in front of him away quickly. Regarding Hongli's intention, in connection with Liu Hu's words just now, Zhao Fang had already guessed a few points, and because of this, he didn't want to get involved.

Unexpectedly, he didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said it, Hongli's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stared at Zhao Fang and said hurriedly: "Manager Zhao, do you know what to say?" What is it, please tell me. ”

"Fourth elder brother, the old slave really doesn't know anything." Zhao Fang had a bitter face, so he just knelt down and kowtowed to beg him to go, seeing that he couldn't persuade Hongli, Zhao Fang couldn't help but be anxious, and blurted out: "Fourth brother, if you don't leave, don't blame the old slave if you are seen." ”

"Father-in-law Zhao, are you threatening the fourth elder brother?" Liu Hu said beside him.

"The old slave doesn't dare, the old slave is also for the good of the fourth elder brother." Although Zhao Fang meant this at all, he would never admit it on the surface.
