Chapter 385: Turn over
The old man was silent.
Seeing this, Emperor Jingming became more and more curious, and asked, "What kind of miracle medicine is it?" β
The old man smiled, and seemed to be a little embarrassed: "It's not strange to say it's strange, many people have it, but it's not strange to say it's not something that can be bought with money......"
As he said this, he couldn't help but glance at the eldest princess of Rongyang.
The eldest princess of Rongyang shook her head slightly.
Emperor Jingming noticed the lawsuit between the two of them, and his face was blank: "Rongyang, what kind of medicine is it, you are still holding the divine doctor from saying it?" β
"Thisβ" Princess Rongyang hesitated.
The Queen Mother was naturally curious: "Rongyang, is there anything that can't be said about this?" β
The eldest princess of Rongyang looked unpredictable, and finally nodded.
Only then did the old man say: "Back to the emperor and the queen mother, this medicine is two taels of human flesh, and you need to pick the meat on the arm of an unmarried girl......"
"What?" The Queen Mother was taken aback, her stomach was churning for a while, and her face was ugly.
The eldest princess of Rongyang immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "I hope that the queen mother will not blame the son-in-law for concealing it, the son-in-law is afraid that you will know and dare not drink the medicine......"
Emperor Jingming was also shocked.
The queen mother ate human flesh, but she didn't taste it? So, human flesh tastes similar to other meats?
Ahem, it seems to be thinking far away.
Retracting his thoughts, Emperor Jingming looked at the Queen Mother with concern.
The Queen Mother has been relieved.
For a woman standing at the top of the harem, if human flesh can cure diseases, then it is a medicine, and since it is a life-saving medicine, there is nothing that cannot be eaten.
"It's okay to mourn your family. I just don't know about this medicineβ"
The eldest princess of Rongyang was silent for a moment before she said, "It was Mingyue who personally cut the flesh on her arm......"
"It's actually Mingyue?" The Queen Mother was taken aback.
Emperor Jingming was even more surprised.
In his impression, this niece has always been quiet and gentle, and he was shocked by such rumors last year, but he didn't expect to cut the flesh to save the queen mother......
It took a long time for the Queen Mother to calm down, and she asked with concern, "How is Mingyue now?" β
No matter how much dissatisfaction there is with Cui Mingyue, now that he hears this, those dissatisfactions have disappeared.
The eldest princess of Rongyang gently wiped the corners of her eyes: "Mingyue began to have a fever after cutting the flesh, and she is still asleep." β
When the Queen Mother heard this, her face changed slightly, and she couldn't help but say, "Why don't you choose someone else?" β
There are so many maidservants, why do you need a delicate girl to cut meat......
The eldest princess of Rongyang sighed: "The divine doctor said that the more delicate the provider of this flavor medicine, the better the effect of the medicine...... When Mingyue learned the news, she directly cut off the flesh on her arm with a dagger, and her sons didn't stop her......"
"This child, this child is really ......" The Queen Mother was speechless for a while.
The eldest princess of Rongyang was relieved: "Queen Mother, don't worry about Mingyue, the most important thing is that your body is better." Mingyue is still young, but it's not a big deal to have a fever-"
The Queen Mother interrupted the words of the eldest princess of Rongyang: "Who said that fever is not a big deal? Fever is the hardest thing to say. By the way, did the divine doctor show Mingyue? β
The old man said: "The grass people are only good at incurable and strange diseases, and it is best to ask the doctor to take a look at the common fever." β
The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Jingming: "Your Majestyβ"
Emperor Jingming nodded: "Don't worry, the queen mother, my son will order the imperial doctor to take a look at Mingyue." β
The eldest princess of Rongyang got up: "Brother Huang, the younger sister will go back to the house with the imperial doctor, Mingyue is really relieved." β
"Imperial sister, go, if there is something, I must send someone to tell me in time."
Cining Palace was quiet for a while.
The Queen Mother counted the prayer beads, closed her eyes and muttered.
After about an hour, the imperial doctor talked back and forth.
The Queen Mother summoned the imperial doctor to come forward and asked softly, "How is Miss Cui's wound?" β
The imperial doctor replied: "Miss Cui's left arm has a deep wound and some swelling, which is why it causes fever. β
The Queen Mother was moved when she heard this.
Being in the harem, there is always a trace of distrust in people, although Cui Mingyue's meat cutting came out of the mouth of the eldest princess of Rongyang, the queen mother still hesitated a little, and now after listening to the words of the imperial doctor, she has no doubts.
Mingyue, that child, really didn't hesitate to cut her flesh in order to save her......
"Will it leave a scar?"
The Imperial Doctor bowed his head and said, "A wound like that will naturally leave a scar." β
The Queen Mother was silent for a while.
A noble girl with such a scar on her arm is a lifelong regret, and I am afraid that if I marry someone in the future, I will not be treated by her husband because of this......
Thinking of getting married, the Queen Mother thought of what happened to Cui Mingyue a month ago.
Rong Yang explained that Yue was coaxed by a bastard surnamed Zhu, thinking that he was a self-respecting and self-reliant student. Although the two have been together for a while, Mingyue is still a virgin.
At that time, she was annoyed that Cui Mingyue was ignorant and didn't listen to it at all, but now that she thinks about it, Mingyue has always been a good child, and Rong Yang is not justifying her daughter by saying this.
The Queen Mother's illness was almost miraculously cured, and the palace soon spread the news that Cui Mingyue cut her flesh to save the Queen Mother.
For a while, no one dared to laugh at Cui Mingyue's rumors a few years ago.
Many people secretly thought: Miss Cui is about to turn over, compared to the credit for saving the Queen Mother, what is the idea rumor?
Everyone guessed well, when the Queen Mother was able to take a walk in the garden, and even felt that her body was lighter than before she was sick, she finally made a decision and ordered someone to invite Emperor Jingming to Cining Palace.
Emperor Jingming was also in a relaxed mood for the past two days.
The Queen Mother can be very good, he is really happy.
"The queen mother has been gone for a while, and my son will help you into the house." Seeing the sweat on the queen mother's forehead, Emperor Jingming proposed.
The Queen Mother agreed, and Emperor Jingming helped her back to the dormitory.
The two sat down, and immediately the palace maid served tea.
The Queen Mother took a sip of the teacup and motioned for irrelevant people to retreat, leaving only her henchmen and grandmothers to wait.
Emperor Jingming sensed that the Queen Mother had something to say, and his face turned straight.
"Isn't King Xiang too young?" The Queen Mother asked.
Emperor Jingming was dumbfounded, and his eyes swept towards Pan Hai.
He has so many children, where do you remember how old the eighth child is.
Speaking of which, what he remembered most clearly was Lao Qi, who let Lao Qi be asserted by the Heavenly Master from birth that he could only meet his father and son when he was eighteen years old.
He only learned what Lao Qi looked like last year, so Lao Qi is nineteen years old this year, and he will never be mistaken.
Pan Hai knew at a glance that the emperor was asked, and secretly made a gesture of "seven".
Emperor Jingming hurriedly said: "Eight or seven years oldββ"
"Ahem!" Pan Hai coughed vigorously.
Your Majesty, the slave maid only has ten fingers, and if you can't draw seventeen, can't you serve dim sum?
"Seventeen!" Emperor Jingming changed his words in time.
"Seventeen years old, not too young. The marriage of the sixth and seventh children has been decided, and the mourning family thinks that it is better to set the marriage of the eighth child. β
Emperor Jingming somewhat understood what the queen mother meant, and asked, "I don't know if the queen mother has a favorite candidate?" β
To put it mildly, the biological mother of the eighth child is just a dancing girl, and it is not her turn to call the shots in marriage.
The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Jingming with a smile: "What does the emperor think of Mingyue?" β
