Chapter 22: The First Cure from a Serious Illness
When he entered the inner hall, Zhu Di glanced back, but saw that Zhu Gaochi had pulled down a long distance, so he stopped and showed displeasure.
It's not that I don't like Zhu Gaochi, after all, this is my son, but I faintly feel it...... This son's physical fitness is too worrisome, and his image is ...... It's not like a prince.
Zhu Gaoxu on the side is majestic and arrogant, with a dragon and tiger spirit.
"Father's ......" Zhu Gaochi finally walked in front of Zhu Di, very embarrassed, and saluted Zhu Di ashamedly.
Zhu Di sighed and said, "You, you have to go on a diet." ”
"Yes, yes."
Zhu Di said: "Your brother-in-law Zhang Anshi...... I haven't caused trouble lately. ”
Zhu Gaochi said: "An Shi is still a child......
Zhu Di said: "This may not be. ”
Zhu Gaochi hurriedly defended: "Father, An Shi's heart is good, he ......"
Zhu Di smiled: "I heard that he and Zhu Yong and Zhang Xun are good friends, but Zhu Yong and Zhang Xun are very promising now, and they have been called the two murderers in the capital, you say, why are they not the three murderers in the capital?" “
Zhu Gaochi was dumbfounded, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Zhu Gaoxu was beside him, and he couldn't help but show a hint of joy, but then he thought of the queen mother, but he was depressed again.
Zhu Di said with his hands behind his back: "Let's go, when you get in front of your queen mother, say something nice." ”
The father and son walked to Queen Xu's bedroom.
At this time, Empress Xu was still sleeping.
The eunuch wanted to wake up Empress Xu, but when he saw Zhu Di frowning, he suddenly became tiptoeing, and the old eunuch understood, knowing that His Majesty wanted Empress Xu to sleep for a while, so he also retreated lightly.
Zhu Di arrived at the couch, sat down gently, lowered his eyes, and looked at Queen Xu who was sleeping soundly.
Empress Xu had already been tortured by illness to the point of withering, and Zhu Di's tiger eyes stared at her like this, and she couldn't help but want to cry.
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaochu were busy standing on their sides, not daring to make a sound.
Zhu Di sat stiffly like a statue, not moving.
Time passed bit by bit.
It's been more than half an hour.
Even the old eunuch outside felt a little strange, and tiptoed in to visit for a while, and then his lips pursed, wanting to say something, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
Outside the dormitory, dozens of eunuchs and palace ladies were already waiting there with various grooming utensils and meals ready to eat.
They didn't move, they didn't make a sound.
It's just that everyone's face has a little puzzled look.
Today...... Something unusual.
Time passes slowly.
Another half hour passed.
The prepared meal has been warmed many times.
The warm water that was originally used for freshening up had to be changed several times.
Until another hour passed, when even Zhu Di felt a little sour.
Empress Xu woke up faintly, her eyes opened a line slightly, and she saw Zhu Di, who was a little dazed.
"You're awake." Zhu Di smiled, at this time he didn't look like a big old man.
After a short period of confusion, Empress Xu said softly: "How long has the concubine slept?" ”
Without waiting for Zhu Di to answer, the old eunuch hurriedly came in, lowered his sharp voice and said, "Niangniang has been asleep for four hours, Your Majesty...... Your Majesty...... For more than a year, Niangniang has never slept so soundly today......"
Zhu Di was shocked and turned to look at Queen Xu, Queen Xu's face was naturally still pale, but it seemed to be a little more energetic than before.
The old eunuch said excitedly: "Do you still cough ...... Niangniang?"
"Oh, yes......" Queen Xu also noticed something strange at this time, she held her breath lightly, and still felt that her throat was faintly stuffy, but ...... Indeed, the breath is much smoother than before.
This......
Empress Xu looked incredulous.
The long suffering of illness has made her miserable, and she has forgotten what it was like to be healthy before.
But now, although she is still a little uncomfortable, it gives her a feeling of regaining her life.
"Hongu feels a little relieved...... But I don't know why. ”
Zhu Di was still sitting there, motionless, dumbfounded.
The old eunuch said, "Niangniang...... You used to always have a night cough, and you couldn't even sleep well, but so far last night, when the slave and maid were waiting outside the hall, although there was an occasional small cough, there was no big noise, and the mother rarely slept a solid sleep, but I don't know at this time...... Do you want to drink some tea to moisten your throat? ”
Empress Xu suddenly had a feeling of seeing the light of day again at this time, at first she was still a little incredulous, but now she ...... She tried to balance her breathing, took another breath, and said, "Let's get some tea, besides that, this palace wants to eat." ”
"Dining ......"
The jaws of the people in the temple will drop with astonishment.
The old eunuch was immediately overjoyed, probably because of excitement, and said in a trembling voice: "What does Niangniang want to eat?" “
"Hongu remembered the time he had eaten in Beiping City...... White fungus soup, by the way, let's enter another 'Poultry Eight Treasures'. ”
The entire dormitory has become a pot of porridge.
The rice porridge that had been prepared to come in was quickly removed, and several stoves were fired on the side of the inner dining room.
Empress Xu said at this time: "Your Majesty, the medicine you sent before ......"
Zhu Di suddenly woke up and said: "Yes, yes, it's the medicine, the medicine really works, it's ...... It works wonders. ”
All of a sudden, Zhu Di's lips trembled with excitement, and he was a little speechless for a while.
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaochu hurriedly saluted, and Zhu Gaochu said: "The queen mother has her own heavenly appearance, this is the blessing of God......
Zhu Di interrupted him at this time and said: "Of course, there is God's protection, but it is also thanks to that Guo Degan. ”
"Guo Degan?"
Zhu Di stood up excitedly and said, "Thanks to this son's medicine, he saved the life of his good wife." ”
Zhu Gaochi said cautiously: "Father, who is this Guo Degan?" ”
Zhu Di glared at him, and at this time, a big stone fell in his heart, and naturally, he regained his heroic temperament, and couldn't help but want to scold: "Who is Guo Degan, in short, a hundred times stronger than your wife and brother, those children ...... And you, you should all learn from him, people have such great ability at a young age. ”
Zhu Gaochi: "......"
He's not bored, but he's used to it.
Zhu Gaoxu said with a needle: "What my father said is that the current children are too unreasonable. ”
After Queen Xu washed, the meal finally came in, in addition to the white fungus soup ordered by Queen Xu, as well as poultry Bazhen, other dishes were also served, and a big table was filled.
Empress Xu only felt hungry at this time.
In fact, her pneumonia, with Zhang Anshi's medicine, did not work so quickly, perhaps because she and later generations have different physiques, after all, later generations have a certain resistance to this medicine, and this medicine is used on Queen Xu, the effect is obviously stronger.
Of course, there are still some coughs occasionally, but for the previous Queen Xu, it can be regarded as the beginning of a serious illness.
She was really hungry, and in front of the father and son, she ate a bowl of white fungus soup, a cake, and half a dish of poultry and eight treasures.
Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi, and Zhu Gaochu were only happy on the side.
At this moment, it seems that he has suddenly returned to the time when he was in Beiping, when Zhu Di was not the emperor, and his sons did not have so much thought.
The family sat together, Zhu Di chattered about what he had seen and heard about the hunting, and Queen Xu was only responsible for smiling and listening.
Only then did Empress Xu say, "Your Majesty...... The concubine felt that her body was much better, and her breath was unobstructed all of a sudden...... Sure enough, is the person who donated the medicine called Guo Degan? Your Majesty must reward it well. ”
Zhu Di's eyebrows fluttered, and he laughed: "I have my own measure." ”
Zhu Gaochi said: "He saved Erchen's mother, and Erchen doesn't know how grateful he should be." ”
Zhu Gaoxu said: "Erchen can't be a cow and a horse for him now." ”
Zhu Di smiled: "You are a fucking talent, but you dare to say anything." ”
