Knowing that Qinghehou had suddenly visited, Xu Fu, who was giving an anatomy class to a group of young doctors, hurriedly came out to greet him.

"Master Hou, it's so hot, why did you suddenly come to the health center!" After Xu Fu welcomed Chen Xu into his office, he instructed the nurse to pour herbal tea and sit down with him.

"Can you help me see if there's anything wrong with this patch?" Chen Xu took out a piece of hemp paper from his pocket and handed it to Xu Fu.

"Don't dare, Hou Ye himself is a medical master, where do you need a blessed beak......" Xu Fu still took the prescription very respectfully when he spoke, opened it and looked at it and said: "Hou Ye, there is no problem with this soup recipe, it is a very common recipe for nourishing essence and replenishing qi, drinking a bowl every day is good for the body!" ”

"Is it really okay?" Chen Xu asked suspiciously, "None of the medicinal properties and pharmacology conflict?" ”

Xu Fu was stunned for a moment, thinking that Chen Xu was testing him with this recipe, so he lowered his head intently and looked at the soup recipe a few times again, only a few food and medicine ingredients, and after being silent for a while, Xu Fu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Master Hou, Fu is shallow in knowledge, I really don't see anything wrong with this soup recipe, everything is a common medicinal material, and there is no conflict in pharmacology and medicinal properties......

"What do you think of my face?" Chen Xu asked, pointing to his face.

Hou Ye's face ...... White with blue, eyes are a little black, lips are slightly dry, this is a disease of lack of sleep, in addition to this, I can't see anything wrong with Hou Ye, now it's hard to sleep at night in the summer heat, and I can't sleep restlessly these days......"

"It's not because of the weather, since I drank this soup, I couldn't sleep almost all night, and I was newly married, and I had to toss with my wife for two hours every night to stop, and this situation has been four consecutive days...... Chen Xu looked at Xu Fu and said.

As the saying goes, illness does not avoid medical treatment, if you want to figure out the crux of any illness and find a way to treat it, the patient must not be taboo about privacy and condition, otherwise it is possible that some diseases will become more and more serious, Xu Fu and Chen Xu have known each other for a long time, and they also know Xu Fu's temperament, almost in addition to his family and Yu Wuya, Chen Xu is the most reassuring and talkative friend, so Chen Xu has no intention of hiding this matter.

And Xu Fu, as the most powerful doctor in Daqin today, naturally heard Chen Xu's voice, and his face changed and said, "Master Hou said that since he drank this beef bone soup, he has been horny all night?" ”

"Not bad!" Chen Xu nodded with a gloomy face.

"Impossible, impossible......" Xu Fu stood up and walked around the room with his beard, "Although Fu has never seen this soup recipe, but according to the medicinal and edible materials used, there will definitely be no situation as Hou Ye said, even if you drink it for a month or two in a row, you will feel stronger at most, and you will definitely not have the desire to burn yourself, unless you ......"

Xu Fu suddenly stood and turned his head to look at Chen Xu: "Master Hou, unless there is a very strong thing added to it!" ”

Chen Xu nodded: "I think so too, but this matter is a little tricky, because it was my mother who boiled the decoction for me......"

"Ah, why is the mother...... Why? Xu Fu was directly stupid.

"This matter has nothing to do with my mother, someone wants to harm me, and I can't investigate it with great fanfare......"

Chen Xu carefully explained the news of Yu Wuya's investigation and his own judgment, and his face became extremely serious and said: "Xu Fu, this matter must have been done by those warlocks who were driven out of the palace by the emperor, I came to you for two things, one is to help me inquire about the origin of this soup recipe, since this soup recipe is effective, and it also uses two medicinal materials, barley and ginseng, and these two origins are in the south and the north, it is definitely not easy for ordinary people to get, so I guess this soup recipe is spread from the princely mansion or even the palace, Also, you have to help me find out what kind of strong and disorderly thing can be so strong that I can't sleep all night. ”

"Don't worry, Master Hou, Fu will find out as soon as possible!" Xu Fu hurriedly agreed, and at the same time said with palpitations, "Fortunately, Hou Ye found it early, this kind of fierce and disorderly thing hurts the body the most, if you can't sleep for half a month in a row, I'm afraid that the body will cause irreversible damage, even if you don't get rid of the yang and die, the essence will definitely be exhausted, and it will be rare to have an heir in the future......."

"Bang~" Chen Xu slammed it on the coffee table, stood up with a blue face, and gritted his teeth viciously and said, "These bastards want to make my Chen family the last!" ”

Xu Fu nodded solemnly: "If Ruofu's guess is good, I'm afraid it is also because Niangniang is eager to have something to do with her grandson, there must be someone who has already set her eyes on Niangniang, but don't worry, since this matter already has eyebrows, Hou Ye doesn't drink that beef bone soup every day!" ”

"I will naturally deal with this matter, you can help me inquire as soon as possible, remember to be cautious, don't make people suspicious!"

"Don't worry, Master Hou, Fu Province!" Xu Fu hurriedly agreed.

Back at the Hou Mansion, Chen Xu asked, Chen Jiang actually went to the market to buy beef bones in person, and Shui Qingrou was not at home, so he asked if he accompanied Xing'er and Yu Ji out of the city to play in the water.

"Engong, what did Xu Fu say?" Yu Wuya held the iron sword and followed up from behind and asked in a low voice.

Chen Xu told Xu Fu's guess, Yu Wuya nodded and said: "It seems that he is similar to my guess, the problem still appears on the gourd, at this time the sister-in-law is not there, just let people go and take out the gourd!" ”

"Well, that's what I thought, too!" Chen Xu nodded, and asked Yu Wuya to find the two little maids he saw a few days ago.

"Slave maid to meet Master Hou!" The two little maids were only thirteen or fourteen years old, they were all rewarded by the previous emperor, and when they saw Chen Xu's cold face, they didn't know what was going on, so they knelt on the ground and kowtowed together.

"You've been following Niangniang recently, have you ever seen Niangniang take a gourd!" Chen Xu asked.

"The slave has seen it!" The two little maids replied together.

"Do you know where that gourd lady is?"

The two little maids shook their heads together, and one of them said: "That gourd was given by an old fairy outside the city, I heard Niangniang say that it contained something very important, and the slave didn't dare to ask, Niangniang took it by herself every time, we didn't dare to touch it, I don't know where Niangniang put it!" ”

"How long does Niang Niang go out every time she buys beef bones?"

"About half an hour!" The other little maid replied.

"You two now secretly go to Niangniang's room to see if you can find the gourd, if you find it, take it out to me, and I'll wait for you in the garden outside Niangniang's bedroom!"

"Yes, Master Hou!" The two little maids got up tremblingly.

"Remember, you can't let anyone know about this, or I'll sell you to the Hu people!"

"Slaves don't dare!" The two little maids turned pale with fright.

"Niangniang will not be out for a long time, you guys go quickly!" Chen Xu waved his hand, and the two little maids also hurriedly ran to Chen Jiang's bedroom, and when they met other maids and subordinates in the mansion on the way, they didn't dare to communicate.

And Chen Xu also pretended to have nothing to do and slowly walked outside Chen Jiang's bedroom, wandering around the garden, while Yu Wuya stood at the garden gate and looked at it vigilantly.

Chen Jiang's bedroom is separate, with a small garden, Chen Xu also comes less on weekdays, arranges a few maids to take care of it, the water is gentle but often comes to greet, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not generally good, now the yard is quiet, several maids are accompanying Chen Jiang's shopping to buy beef bones.

In the middle of the garden, there were some flowers and plants originally planted, but they were all dug up by Chen Jiang's and reclaimed into a vegetable field, planted some leeks, amaranth and loofahs, and a few nests of winter melons were planted near the courtyard wall, but they have just grown, and now it is summer, whether these melons can bloom and bear fruit is still a big problem.

Chen Jiang was used to working hard in Xiaohe Village, and it was not possible to prevent her from growing vegetables, so Chen Xu had to ask Ma Pole to help build some hoes, nails, rakes and knives, all of which were collected by Chen Jiang under a pergola in the yard.

The two little maids sneaked into Chen Jiang's room, and there were occasionally one or two gentle collision sounds inside, and it took more than ten minutes for the two little maids to run out with a gourd in surprise.

"Master Hou, Master Hou, the slave has been found!"

The gourd is not big, shake it inside, it should be filled with a liquid, Chen Xu hurriedly took the gourd, opened the wooden stopper and smelled it, feeling a slightly spicy and pungent smell, very strange, so he poured a little bit on his hand, and the color was cloudy and he couldn't see what the ingredients were.

"Big Brother Boundless come and take a look!" Chen Xu stood under the pergola and called Yu Wuya over.

Yu Wuya sniffed and looked at it, and even licked it with his fingers, and then shook his head with a solemn face: "Engong, can't tell what it is?" ”

"Have you ever seen Niang Niang add the contents of the gourd to the beef bone broth?" Chen Xu asked the two little maids.

"Nope!" The two little maids shook their heads together, and one of them said, "Every time the lady cooks the soup herself in the kitchen, don't let us interfere, and after the boiling, the lady will bring it to the Hou Ye!" ”

"Alright, you two are waiting for me here!"

Chen Xu hid the gourd in his clothes and left in a hurry, and after returning to his laboratory, he poured all the liquid in the gourd into a bowl, then filled half the gourd with tea, got a little mustard and salt and shook it vigorously a few times, and then returned to Chen Jiang's dormitory again, handed the gourd to the two little maids, and let them put it back as it was.

After the two little maids withdrew, Chen Xu breathed a sigh of relief and left with the two little maids.

"Brother Yu, you send the two of them to Qinghe Garden and hand them over to the steward Huangfu Que, and ask him to arrange for someone to be sent to the Qinghe store in Daliang and Luoyang as helpers respectively!"

The two little maids were frightened and knelt in front of Chen Xu and kowtowed, crying together: "Master Hou don't drive the slave and maid away, the slave and maid will no longer dare to eavesdrop on the Hou Ye and his wife sleeping!" ”

Chen Xu sighed and shook his head and said: "I don't blame you for this matter, it is that today's matter can't be known to Mrs. and Niangniang, you can rest assured, the food, clothing and housing in the Qinghe stores in Daliang and Luoyang are no worse than those of the Hou Mansion, and I will let people take off your slave status in two years, and you will also be civilians in the future, you can find a husband to marry, which is better than being a person in the Hou Mansion." ”

"Master Hou, the slave is unwilling to leave you......"

"Brother Wuya, take them away!" Chen Xu waved his hand, insisting on not softening his heart.
