The queen was leaning on the couch and reading, when she heard the announcement of the round fan, she threw down the book and looked at the comer.

"Say hello to the queen, the queen will live a long life." Mrs. Zhu and Qingwan hurriedly saluted.

"That's it, you don't have to be so polite, let's get up." Empress Zhu's voice was extremely gentle, "Round fan, give me a seat quickly." ”

"Thank you, Queen Mother." The two stood up, and the little palace maid had already brought two stools, placed them in front of the queen's bed, and invited the two to sit down.

"This is Wei Langzhong, right?" Empress Zhu's eyes were like torches, she glanced at Qingwan deeply, and smiled slightly.

Empress Zhu is about thirty years old, with a dignified demeanor, although she sits there kindly, she makes everyone around her feel the majesty she exudes. Wearing a homely dark blue brocade dress, he did not feel luxurious at all.

"Yes, the people's daughter's surname is Wei, thanks to the kindness of the queen, I am willing to do my best for my mother." Qingwan said busily.

The queen nodded slightly, and just wanted to say something, when she suddenly covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed dryly.

The round fan hurriedly came over to pat the back and pour the tea, and after a long time, the queen relieved herself, reluctantly took a sip of tea, and said: "Alas, the weather is cold, and the cough is getting more and more serious." ”

"Niangniang, let Miss Qing give you this diagnosis and diagnosis," Mrs. Zhu said busily: "The doctors who have come to see you recently don't know your condition, where can I get the right medicine?" ”

"Okay, then let Miss Qing help Bengong take a look." As she spoke, the queen slowly stretched out her wrist and placed it on the small pillow.

The round fan had already brought over a round stool and placed it in front of the queen, and Qingwan sat down busily and treated the queen for a long time.

"Miss Qing, what do you think of this palace?" The queen withdrew her hand and stared at Qingwan and asked.

After diagnosing the pulse, Qingwan already knew the queen's condition, so she said: "Niangniang, according to the people's daughter, this is a deficiency of lung yin, so there will be a dry cough." Does the mother still have symptoms such as sweating and hot flashes? ”

"That's right," the queen nodded slightly: "But the imperial doctor also gave a prescription for sweating, and it still didn't work." ”

"Niangniang, forgive the people for being bold, can you take a look at the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor?" Qingwan wanted to know what kind of medicine the queen had been taking since this time, and why this dry cough was not too serious, but it didn't work for a long time?

Hearing this, the queen hesitated for a moment, but finally ordered the round fan: "Go and bring the recipe that the palace has eaten recently and show it to Miss Qing." ”

Fang Zi quickly brought it, and Qingwan read it carefully from beginning to end, and immediately understood.

"Miss Qing, what do you see?" The queen looked at the faint smile on her face, and somehow, she felt a little more settled in her heart.

"Niangniang, according to the people's daughter, the doctors are probably used to being cautious, and they dare not use large doses, the almonds and fritillaries in this recipe are very small, with all due respect, Niangniang's illness has been a long time, and it cannot be effective without large doses."

The queen was slightly surprised when she heard this: "The imperial doctors all said that it is necessary to use a small dose of slow diagnosis and treatment, and it is absolutely impossible to use fierce drugs indiscriminately." ”

"The condition is complicated, and the treatment should be judged and the situation should be judged," Qingwan said: "If you should use a large dose, you must not use a small amount, otherwise the course of the disease will be prolonged, and in the end you will take a lot of medicine, but it is still useless." Just like the attack of fire and water, if there is less water, it will not be able to extinguish the fire, and the fire will not be effectively contained, and it will become stronger and stronger. If you have to start with enough water to extinguish the fire, it is the best solution. ”

The queen listened, and there was a look of approval in her eyes: "What Miss Qing said makes sense. Hongu himself also felt that after taking these medicines prescribed by the imperial doctor, sometimes they had a little effect, but they could not be completely cured. This palace also talked about this problem, but those imperial doctors all said in unison, saying that they must not use fierce medicine indiscriminately. ”

Qingwan had no intention of meddling in the affairs of the imperial doctor, but said: "But Niangniang's illness is not serious, if you can use the right medicine and the dosage is appropriate, you can expect to be cured in less than a month." ”

"Then ask Miss Qing to bother and prescribe a prescription for this palace." The queen also smiled faintly.

Qingwan stood up and bowed, the palace maid had already set up a pen and inkstone on the desk near the window, Qingwan walked over, thought about it for a while, and prescribed a prescription based on sand ginseng wheat winter soup.

According to the rules, the palace maid showed the prescription to the queen, and Queen Zhu seemed to know some medical skills, so she took it and looked at it carefully for a long time before saying: "Miss Qing's prescription is really different from others." It's just that the dose of this jade bamboo and dendrobium is too big? ”

It seems that she is usually used to taking small doses of medicine, and when she suddenly saw such a large number of grams, Queen Zhu was also a little unsure.

This reaction was already in Qingwan's expectations, she was prepared, so she smiled lightly: "Niangniang, as the folk girl just said, the treatment of diseases is the same as water and fire, if the dose is small, it will not be able to curb the development of the fire at all, and it must be done in one go to completely control the condition in order to be effective." ”

Mrs. Zhu was also a little worried at this time, and hurriedly said, "Miss Qing, can you adjust the dose a little lower?" Try taking two doses first? ”

"No, considering Niangniang's body qi deficiency, this is already the smallest dose, if it is reduced again, I am afraid it will not be effective." Qingwan shook her head resolutely.

Empress Zhu agreed at this time: "Okay! This palace heard the girl's clearly, and ate according to this recipe! ”

Mrs. Zhu, who brought Lang Zhong from "this", became a little uneasy.

Qingwan is confident, she is confident that within a month, she will be able to cure the queen's illness.

In fact, this is not a serious dry cough, but it is delayed by the wisdom of the imperial doctors. I am afraid that I will use the wrong burden, so I can only use a small dose of medicine to regulate, which not only cannot be cured, but also aggravates the mild condition.

Qingwan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, whether it was the place of the palace or the rich mansion of the Lu family, sometimes it was not as good as a country house, it was more comfortable and casual.

Empress Zhu had already handed the prescription to the palace maid, and said with a smile: "Where is Miss Qing from, and why did she come to the capital?" ”

Qingjuan asked, and then said: "Back to the queen's mother, the folk girl is a native of Fengzhou, Zhongfengzhou, born in the countryside, because her younger brother was admitted to the Guozijian Flourishing Department and entered Beijing to study, so the folk girl also came with her to do some small business. ”

"Oh?" Empress Zhu was extremely interested: "Your younger brother is also one of the students admitted to the Talent Course this time?" What's the name?"

"Yes." Qingwan said: "His name is Wei Hanguan." ”

As soon as she heard this name, Empress Zhu became even more interested: "This palace has heard of this child. It is said that he is the best seedling of this talent department, and he is outstanding among the students. It's no wonder, since the younger brother is so outstanding, you are his sister, so naturally you can't be wrong. ”

"The queen has won the prize. Our sister and brother are both born in the countryside, and we are already satisfied to have a chance to study and settle down in the capital. Qingwan couldn't help but think to herself, Queen Zhu understood so thoroughly, she must have heard Zhu An often talk about it. This can also prove that Hanguan is indeed extremely important in Zhu An's heart.

Empress Zhu smiled faintly, and her words were full of meaning: "This palace sees that you are also a blessed child, as long as you do things well, the blessings of your sisters and brothers are still ahead!" ”

Qingwan had already heard the meaning of the words, but she just said: "The people don't dare to take this as a girl." ”

"The emperor has arrived!" In the quiet main hall, a shout suddenly sounded.

When Mrs. Zhu heard this, she immediately stood up and said to Queen Zhu: "Niangniang, then we will retire first." ”

"Okay, I've got you all for today." Empress Zhu also said: "Wait for a few days to be free, and then come in to talk to the palace." ”

The two little eunuchs who had just led them in led the way in front of them, and as soon as they turned around, they went out of the house and walked towards the small corner gate.

The snow was already much lighter, and the two still followed the little eunuch and followed the same road, out of the corner gate, the palace gate, and got into the carriage.

The carriage started, but Mrs. Zhu still had palpitations, and said half-complaining, half-worried: "Miss Qing, you don't know, you scared me just now." What kind of person is the queen? What if the dose is too big and you don't eat it right? Don't talk about you, even our entire Zhu family can't afford it! If you are asked to reduce the amount of medicine, you will not listen. You're so stubborn, I can't rest assured! ”

Qingwan was not worried, and said with a smile: "Madame, don't worry, can I joke with my net worth?" ”

"I know you're sure, but"

Qingwan straightened up: "Madam, I just said in the palace that the queen's illness has been delayed for a long time, and it can't be effective unless you use a large dose, and there is really no way to do it." ”

"I understand," Mrs. Zhu sighed deeply, "If it weren't for the hard work in the court over the years, Niangniang wouldn't be like this." It's all that Su Guifei, who is adjusted by the demon every day, making waves! ”

Qingwan didn't intervene in these things, and Mrs. Zhu didn't mention it anymore, the two were talking, and before they knew it, they had arrived in front of the shop.

"I won't go down," Mrs. Zhu said with a smile, "I'll pick you up again when I have a follow-up visit in a few days." ”

Qingwan responded with a smile, and helped the maid's hand to get out of the car, and the Zhu family's carriage had already driven away, and soon disappeared into a blanket of snow.

"Sister Fang, you can be regarded as back!" As soon as she saw her, Lu Xiufang hurriedly rushed forward, looked her up and down carefully, and exhaled after confirming that there was nothing wrong: "It's okay, it's okay!" ”

Qingwan looked at her worried look, unconsciously moved, and a little funny: "What can be the matter?" Are you worrying too much? ”

"Not necessarily!" Lu Xiufang said: "What is the place in the palace? In case"

"Okay, okay," Qingwan also felt a little tired, so she sat down casually: "Didn't I come back well?" By the way, there's nothing going on in the store, right? ”

The snow stopped, and the number of people who came to buy goods increased, and the small store was crowded with people again.

"It's okay," Lu Xiufang said with a smile: "Sister Fang, can you tell me what the palace is like?" Have you seen the Queen? Isn't the queen scary? ”
