Chapter 782: A Strange Reward

But no matter how doubtful they are, the Li family can't afford to be courteous.

Soon, Li Zhensheng personally went out and welcomed the people from the palace in.

The person who came was a grandmother beside the queen, who brought four palace maids, and the rest of the guards stayed outside the door.

The grandmother carried the food box, and the four palace maids each carried a tray, covered with red satin.

With a smiling face, Mama respectfully greeted the Li family, and then was invited to sit down for tea.

She smiled and said: "County Lord, the queen mother has dinner with the third princess today, and when it comes to the county lord's unwell, the third princess is very worried about you."

"The same is true for the queen mother, after all, you grew up under the watch, so the queen mother chose a few sets of jewelry for you and asked the old slave to send them.

"Thinking that the county lord is happy when he sees it, this disease will be half better."

With that, as soon as she waved her hand, the palace maid uncovered the red silk on the tray, revealing the contents inside.

Four trays, four sets of red gold jewelry.

The style is not much exquisite, but it is very affordable, and each set is afraid that it cannot be made without five or six taels of gold.

Four sets are more than 20 taels of gold, which can be exchanged for more than 200 taels of silver!

This reward can't be said to be generous, but it is really eye-catching to look at, and it can be regarded as a preference for good news, which shows that it is attentive.

Jiayin smiled happily, and hurriedly thanked her, "Thank you for thinking about me, and when I am completely recovered, I will go to the palace to thank you." ”

The grandmother took the opportunity to take a closer look at the good news, and saw that her little face was a little thin, and her complexion was not too good, but she was almost the same as ordinary people.

Mama had a bottom in her heart, so she got up with a smile, took a small pot from the food box, and covered it with a cotton cloth cover to keep warm.

She continued to smile and said, "County Lord, this is the tonic soup that Niangniang drank recently. Niangniang asked the doctor in the hospital, and said that it was particularly effective in consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan, nourishing qi and replenishing blood.

"Niangniang ordered someone to boil one for you, drink it while it's hot."

Jiayin blinked his eyes wide, and frowned when he looked at the medicine pot, a little reluctant.

"What kind of tonic is this, is it bitter? I hate drinking pills the most! ”

The grandmother hurriedly said, "It's not bitter, it's not bitter." The county lord doesn't know anything, and the queen is also afraid of hardship.

"Since the mother can drink it, the taste must not be bad."

With that, she took out the medicine pot with her own hands, poured a bowl of brown soup, and sent it to Jiayin.

"The county lord drank it while it was hot, and the lady said that when you are completely recovered, I will invite you to the palace to enjoy the chrysanthemums. They are all famous products, and I think the county lord must like them. ”

"Really?" Jiayin seemed to be very interested, and asked, "Did the gardener in the palace raise a phoenix Zhenyu, can I ask Niangniang for a flower seedling?" ”

The grandmother glanced at the medicinal soup in the bowl, and said with a reluctant smile: "County lord, this old slave can't be the master."

"Why don't you hurry up and drink the tonic soup, go to enjoy the flowers when the time comes, and talk to the queen in person. Niangniang loves you so much, let alone a flower seedling, eight out of ten plants are no problem! ”

Jiayin nodded happily, and just as he was about to pick up the medicine bowl, he heard Li Zhensheng shout, "Slow." ”

He stepped forward to take a closer look at the medicinal soup, and when he looked up and saw that the panic in his grandmother's eyes hadn't had time to put it away, he felt more and more that something was wrong.

It was strange for the queen mother to suddenly come to reward her, and it was even more strange that she brought a pot of boiled medicinal soup!

If you really want to reward things to replenish your body, you can give supplements, medicinal herbs, and even prescriptions, and you don't need to boil them at all.

And you have to drink the good news immediately, you can't do it if you don't drink it!

The grandmother suppressed her panic and said, "The eldest master has studied medicine? But look at how wrong this tonic soup is? ”

"Mama is serious, the queen is lovely, how dare I question it?" Li Zhensheng shook his head, but still said with a smile: "It's just that this tonic soup has been brought all the way, I'm afraid it's cold, and the medicinal effect will definitely be discounted."

"It's better to give the prescription down, and after our family is boiled now, let the county lord take it."

The grandmother hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from the master, this tonic prescription is a secret of the imperial doctor's own family, and it is not allowed to be passed on."

"The queen also thinks that the medicine has a good effect, so she sent it to the county lord."

After that, she looked around at the Li family and added with a smile, "The eldest lord can't trust the queen, right?" ”

Li Zhensheng's face paled three points, and he replied: "Don't dare, I'm just asking a few more words."

"After all, the county lord is still young, before the Northern Expedition, the Hou Ye told us for a long time to take good care of the county lord in our family, and if anyone wants to be unfavorable to the county lord, he will not let it go when he comes back."

Mama's hand trembled, but she still pushed the medicine bowl forward.

"County Lord, hurry up and drink the tonic soup, the old slave is in a hurry to go back and recover his life!"

Jiayin didn't seem to hear Fang Cai's sharp words, frowned, picked up the medicine bowl, blocked his mouth with his sleeve, and drank it all in one go.

At the end, she put down the bowl, slapped her mouth twice, and was still a little disgusted, "This tonic soup is not bitter, but it is a little fishy." ”

Mama finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Maybe there is fish maw added to it, this is not only to replenish the body, but also to beautify the skin, and the county lord will not feel fishy when he is used to eating it." ”

With that, she took the medicine bowl and the medicine pot, and then got up to take her leave.

Everyone in the Li family also got up and sent to the door.

Needless to say, a grandmother and four palace maids, the Li family sent out five purses filled with hard-earned silver.

When only his family was left in the house, Li Zhensheng immediately asked: "Fu Niu'er, do you feel uncomfortable with anything, but you want to invite Doctor Zhang here?" ”

Jiayin smiled and waved her hand and asked, "Uncle, how do you know that this tonic soup has been moved?" ”

"What do you mean by moving hands and feet?" Before Li Zhensheng could speak, Mrs. Li had already rushed forward and pulled her granddaughter's hand, turning pale with fright.

Tao Hongying, Zhao Yuru and others also stepped forward, looking worried.

Jiayin hurriedly said: "Grandma, don't worry, it's not poison in the tonic soup, and I didn't drink it." ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they still looked at her well, for fear that she would fall in the next moment.

Jiayin finally appeased the family before saying: "I just sniffed the tonic soup and there are sea grasses, and it is really good to taste a little."

"This sea grass is not a poison and will not take people's lives, but if you drink it, there will be no movement at first, but after two days, you will vomit and diarrhea, and you will be sick for at least five or six days.

In this way, even if a doctor is called to check the pulse, the doctor will think that the patient has a cold or eaten the wrong meal, and the problem is wrong.

"Fortunately, it is not too difficult to cure vomiting and diarrhea, and it will definitely not endanger life, but it will be a little sinful."

Mrs. Li was annoyed at the time, "Our family hasn't offended the queen recently, why did she send you tonic soup and let you suffer?" ”

Tao Hongying also scolded: "Even if she is the queen, she can't harm other people's children like this!" Fortunately, you didn't drink it, otherwise what if you really vomit and diarrhea! ”

Li Zhensheng motioned for everyone to be calm and asked Jiayin, "Fu Niu'er, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Jiayin was also puzzled, and said: "If our family really offends the queen, or if the queen looks at me unpleasantly and wants my life, then it should also be poisoned, and it can't be sent with such fanfare."

"So, the queen's real purpose should be to make me sick a little. Even if it is found out, I don't have to worry about my life, whether it is our family, even the emperor, I will not treat her well.

"I just don't know, what did she make me sick for a few days?

"Could it be that what she is going to do these days, I may be an obstacle, so she wants me to 'fall' temporarily?"
