Chapter 139: The Queen Desires a Son

PS: Ask for a subscription, don't ask for a monthly pass, don't pounce too badly!

Attending the imperial banquet is not a very easy thing, not only are there many rules, but also the time is long, especially you can't move around without permission.

The constraints are great!

If Meng Yan hadn't participated for the first time, he really wouldn't have the courage to persevere!

The emperor and the empress dowager were both present, and the speeches were unified, and Meng Yan was sitting in a remote position, so he couldn't hear what was said at all!

The things made by the imperial chefs are good, but they are basically cold when they are served in front of the individual!

Eating cold food in the winter is a kind of sin for people, and the young people can still stand it, but the old officials cannot.

Meng Yan saw that someone actually brought their own small charcoal stove for hot dishes.

There are still a lot of people who have found out that they are doing this, and some of them have actually brought in the briquette stove he just got on the market!

Is that okay too?

Yes, this is the emperor's birthday banquet, which is not too strict an occasion, and besides, the kitchen can only heat dishes for a few people, so as long as it doesn't obstruct the view, the act of bringing your own charcoal stove to hot dishes is nothing!

Of course, this kind of thing is done by the servants, and the little eunuch is bribed to help with the transmission, although the things in this palace are small, but they have university questions one by one!

Meng Yan was amazed, the history he learned was all seen on the surface, and the dark side behind this grand history, if you don't experience it yourself, it is really difficult to imagine and understand!

People like Meng Yan who have no experience can only eat cold dishes and drink cold wine dryly, it's okay, just have wine!

It's better than eating rats raw in the snow. It's much better to swallow snow in your mouth!

Although there are still large-scale cabaret performances, the distance is too far, and there are no megaphones in this era, and you can't hear what they are singing!

However, Meng Yan was fortunate to meet Zhu Qizhen's eldest wife, the most affectionate queen in history, Queen Qian!

Queen Qian likes music, and she also heard that Meng Yan had created a music box, so she made an exception to meet Meng Yan, a foreign minister!

Meng Yan just glanced at it from a distance, the graceful and luxurious Queen Qian is not a top beauty, but she definitely belongs to a beauty!

And Queen Shi Zaiqian has both talent and virtue, and is a rare good queen. It's a pity. Later, because of Zhu Qizhen's unscrupulous husband, he cried blind in one eye!

The reason why Meng Yan was summoned was that Empress Qian wanted to understand the principle of making zuΓ² and sounding the music box, and no one knew this better than him!

As the nominal lord of the harem, Queen Qian actually did not hold the real power of the harem, and there was her mother-in-law, the Empress Dowager. An ambitious mother-in-law who squeezed out the former queen's ascendancy. There is also a concubine competing for favor below.

Meng Yan couldn't be allowed to sigh. A sound of silk and bamboo pulled him back to reality!

It turns out that the cabaret show has changed again!

Boring, Meng Yan looked around and found that there were no people in many seats? Inquire a little. Only then did they know that these humble characters didn't need to wait until the end of the dinner party, and no one cared if they found a reason to leave directly.

Meng Yan didn't want to stay any longer, so he just urinated!

As long as no one is looking for this kind of thing, it will be gone in the future, and if someone is looking for it, then you will be unlucky!

Under normal circumstances, it will be fine.

After leaving the palace and taking a breath, Meng Yan took a look at the sky, it seemed that it was still a little early, and he was just going back.

"Lord Meng?"

"Lord Wen, you also came out?" Meng Yan turned his head and looked, he was happy, it was actually Wen Liangdong, and he also secretly came out of the palace gate!

"Let's go, I'll talk to you about something!" Wen Liangdong pulled Meng Yan and walked forward.

"Go, Songhe Tower, talk quietly there!" Meng Yan Road.

"Good!"

Shengshang Wanshou, the business of Songhe Tower is also a lot lighter, and when Meng Yan and Wen Liangdong came, they were about to close.

"Xiao Linzi, inform the kitchen, bring us a big bowl of braised mutton, put more spicy seeds, and in addition, give us two catties of wine, I have something to talk about with Lord Wen!" Meng Yan commanded.

"Okay, Dr. Meng, please!"

"By the way, arrange a quiet private room for me." Meng Yan thought for a moment and commanded again.

"Okay, no problem!"

"Lord Wen, please!"

"Master Meng, I've been to Songhe Tower many times, why haven't I heard that there is such a place?" Wen Liangdong said with a smile.

"It's not open to the public, unless it's a special request, and most people don't know about it!" Meng Yan smiled.

"yes, how did I not know?" Wen Liangdong said.

"Lord Wen, please be seated!"

"Today, the queen summoned me, she wants to add an heir to the saint, let me prescribe a prescription for her, so that she can conceive a dragon son earlier!" Wen Liangdong said.

"Didn't the queen mother just give birth to a princess for the saint?" Meng Yan felt strange, and Queen Qian was not old, in her previous life, it was not yet the legal age for marriage, studying in school, and falling in love was considered early love.

"Yes, but if the lord of this harem can't give birth to a prince, Lord Meng, think about it, how strict the consequences are, isn't the former Empress Hu also virtuous and virtuous, isn't it also because of this to be abolished!" Wen Liangdong said.

"This matter of giving birth to a child is not up to one person, not to mention that this birth of a boy or a girl, it is in God's hands, and our doctors can't control it!" Meng Yan smiled bitterly, on this big night, Wen Liangdong came over to tell him about this, isn't this sincere to block him?

"Master Meng, let me tell you something......" Wen Liangdong leaned over and whispered in Meng Yan's ear.

"Is there such a thing?"

"Are you sure?"

"Although my medical skills are not as good as you, Master Meng, I have also practiced medicine for many years, and I can't see this at all, how can I be the envoy of this Tai Hospital?" Wen Liang Dong Yan sΓΉ said.

"If you say this, it's going to pierce the sky, Lord Wen, you haven't told anyone else this secret, have you?" Meng Yan asked.

"Except for you, Lord Meng, I didn't mention it to the third person, I Wen Liangdong can swear to the sky!" Wen Liangdong said.

"This matter is very important, and it will be a shocking case if you don't get it right, Lord Wen. Give the queen medicine, you can't intervene in the hospital, right? ”

"We only have to prescribe the prescription, and whether the prescription can be used or not is not up to us, and all the medicinal materials must go through the Shangshi Bureau, and after the prescription and medicinal materials enter the Shangshi Bureau, we don't care about our affairs."

"What's wrong with the prescription?"

"The residue must be kept for more than three days, if it is a prescription problem, the residue can be inspected, if it is not a prescription problem, it is a problem with the decoction method, and this is recorded at every step. Who grabbed the medicine. How much is the amount, the decoction steps, the time, etc., who will deliver the medicine. It's all on the record! "Wen Liangdong said." Something happened. It's all traceable! ”

"What about the medicinal soup, if there is no problem in the process of decoction, the problem lies in the relief of the medicine. How to verify? ”

"This, unless there is a residual medicinal decoction for testing, I'm afraid it will be difficult to verify!" Wen Liangdong was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile.

"Lord Wen, the matter of the inner court is not trivial, especially when it comes to the harem, the continuation of the heirs of the Holy Lord is the most important thing, you follow the rules to prescribe a prescription for the queen's mother, before the matter is clear, don't mention it to the mother, so as not to be noticed!" Meng Yan Road.

"I know this, that's why I came to you to discuss, how should I prescribe this prescription!" Wen Liangdong said, "You also know that the prescription for the queen mother can only be used after being verified by at least three imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital, and then submitted by the celebrant to the Holy Emperor for approval." ”

"This is indeed a bit troublesome, but as long as there is no problem with our prescription, it shouldn't arouse the other party's vigilance!"

"Well, that's what I thought too." Wen Liangdong nodded.

"Lord Wen, this matter needs to be considered in the long run, don't be in a hurry, you have to try your best to comfort the queen, she is still young, there is an opportunity, there is no need to rush!" Meng Yan.

Meng Yan doesn't know much about history, but the later emperor of the Ming Dynasty was indeed not from this Empress Qian, and her own experience in her later years was very miserable, even worse than the deceased Empress Hu.

Knock Knock......

"It's the shopkeeper, I'll open the door!" As soon as Meng Yan heard this, he knew that it was Wen Xiaoyu who came outside, and probably knew that he was coming and came to find him.

When I opened the door, I heard the light rain and came in with the wine and food.

"Master Meng came, and he didn't say anything in advance, Xiaoyu is so prepared?" Wen Xiaoyu smiled charmingly.

"Improvised, Lord Wen is also here!" Meng Yan smiled.

"Hello Lord Wen!"

"Smell the shopkeeper!" Wen Liangdong got up and said, "It's so late, let the shopkeeper Wen entertain him personally, Wen really can't help it!" ”

"Lord Wen is a distinguished guest, and he can't usually invite Xiaoyu, how dare he slack off?" Wen Xiaoyu smiled lightly.

"Smell the shopkeeper's politeness!"

"There is actually nothing delicious in this palace banquet, cold dishes, cold wine, come, Lord Wen, have a drink?" Meng Yan raised his glass and said.

"Lord Meng is true temperament, this is said to Wen's heart, cheers!" Wen Liangdong smiled.

Wen Xiaoyu smiled and filled the wine glasses of the two.

"Xiaoyu, sit down and have a drink with me and Lord Wen?" Meng Yan commanded.

"Good!" Wen Xiaoyu nodded slightly, sat down, took a wine glass, and poured herself a full glass of wine.

A trace of surprise flashed in Wen Liangdong's eyes, Wen Xiaoyu is a famous flower in the capital, and it is also thorny.

is unpretentious to those princes and nobles, why is he so low-brow and docile to Meng Yan, a small hundred households?

Even if Songhelou has a lot to do with Jinyiwei, it won't be like this, right?

And Meng Yan's title just now, "Xiaoyu" is not something that anyone can call him, not someone close to him, this kind of affectionate title, Wen Xiaoyu is estimated to have been angry for a long time, but the magic is that Wen Xiaoyu doesn't seem to be angry at all, but has a cheerful smile in the corner of his eyes!

"Please!"

Two men, one woman, can talk about the wind and snow, with Wen Xiaoyu in the middle of the reconciliation, the topic has become much easier!

The news that Meng Yan obtained the imperial unicorn robe also told Xiaoyu through Wen Liangdong's mouth, the music box was a blockbuster at the birthday ceremony, Wen Xiaoyu had already heard about it, but she didn't know that this music box was actually made by Meng Yan!

The woman's gaze immediately became hot!

With this light, Meng Yan knew that he was going to work hard again tonight!

Men are born to work hard. (To be continued......)
