"What's going on?" The man on the dragon chair looked down and asked suspiciously.

"If I went back to the emperor, I would have thought that there were a lot of pills in the bag, but I didn't expect there to be so many packs." The old eunuch said tremblingly.

"yes, looking at the bulging bag, I didn't expect there to be so many pills." The court officials also calmly agreed. Although I have many doubts in my heart, I really dare not say the truth. The emperor was moody, and what he said was to make trouble for himself.

"Your Majesty, the people outside the city have spread the word about this master and apprentice, and I don't know what is wonderful about this pill." Another courtier quickly changed the subject.

The eunuch next to the emperor opened a package of pills, and then opened the wrapping paper on a small pill. Immediately, the smell of herbs wafted out, a little bitter and a hint of sweetness.

The eunuch who opened the package of the pill sniffed vigorously and couldn't help but say: "The smell of this pill is refreshing when you smell it, it's really a good medicine." ”

"Open a few more grains and bring me closer." The man in the dragon chair gave a greedy command.

When Yuqing and Lao Langzhong returned to the main hall, what they saw was a laughing scene. The emperor sat on the dragon chair and breathed hard, several eunuchs surrounded the dragon case, and the two court officials sniffed vigorously below.

"Smell it, smell it, even the smell can cure diseases, Miss Ben's medical skills, throw you thousands of years away." Yuqing thought in his senses.

"Master, they look like puppies, how about the owner rubbing the pills into bones next time." Yuyu said with a smile in Yuqing's divine sense.

Lao Langzhong also looked at the situation in the hall and wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and his beard trembled.

"Your Majesty, we're back from the Cold Palace." A royal doctor in the palace couldn't stand it. In fact, he originally wanted to ask the emperor what he was doing?

"The old imperial doctor, Ye Xiaozhuang, why did you bring such a few pills into the palace? I remember that Shanqi Clan Village is not small or poor. The emperor raised his head and said a word.

"If you go back to the emperor, our villa was originally very big but now it is not big, and it used to be very rich but now it has become poor. Our master and apprentice exhausted all the herbs in the villa, and we didn't make many pills. When I went to the cold palace just now, the folk girl brought some of it and gave it to all the patients in the cold palace. Yuqing said calmly, scolding a faint gentleman in his heart, he was originally a scumbag. The villa has become smaller and poorer, and it is not you who have made trouble.

"What? You masters and apprentices dare to make your own opinions, such a good pill is given to those who are going to die. Don't you think I'm easy to talk and confused? The person on the dragon chair was furious, pointing at Lao Langzhong and Yuqing.

"The emperor is angry, and the grass people came to the palace to cure diseases. The dozens of patients in the cold palace can be completely cured, and the grass people are a Langzhong who can't delay the opportunity to cure the disease and save their lives. Besides, the grass people didn't see anyone on the side of the cold palace, and once someone died, it was too late to transport it out. The wind will blow the corpse poison in this direction in the next few days, and some people will be rumored to be plagued. ”

"Bold, what corpse poison?" One of the hospital's leaders shouted in fear.

"yes, what corpse poison?" The man on the dragon chair also questioned.

"Your Majesty, the folk girl is a village girl who speaks bluntly, and the folk girl doesn't know too well how long the plague has been prevalent. From the results of the pulse examination of those patients just now, combined with the symptoms of the original patients in our mountain village, any Langzhong can also diagnose that this large-scale epidemic is caused by corpse poison. People are born, old, sick and die, and those who die stay for a maximum of 7 days before they are buried in the earth. One of the most important reasons is that after death, all organs will slowly decay. The gas produced after decay is corpse poison, and it is also a source of various diseases in healthy people. Yuqing was not frightened by the emperor, and talked in a calm voice.

"Old Imperial Doctor, did you diagnose it like this?"

"Back to the emperor, Caomin's diagnosis is the same as that of my apprentice. The grass people feel that the most important thing for the plague is to prevent and cure it, and the grass people and apprentices also uphold this mentality to enter the palace to treat the disease and save people, and share the worries and solve problems for the court. ”

"Then tell me what your master and apprentice think, the prescriptions used in the palace are also the ones you used in the past. There is a curative effect outside the imperial city, but there is no curative effect in the palace, and it is best if you masters and apprentices can give me a reasonable explanation. The emperor asked aggressively.

"What a dog emperor, turning his face is faster than turning a book, and the sins he has created are not allowed to be said. Why didn't the plague pass him on? ”

"Yuyu, be quiet, look at your master, how I can't say anything to him."

"Your Majesty, there are dozens of patients in the cold palace, and the light ones will basically be cured by taking one pill, and the heavy ones will have to drink the medicinal soup several times. The same recipe has an effect outside the city, because those who find the symptoms are in the early stage, and they will be cured by drinking the medicinal soup once or twice. It's easy to understand that you can't see the effect in the imperial city. ”

Emperor......

"Master Ye Xiaozhuang, how can anyone eat such a good pill."

"Lord Courtyard, the people don't understand what you mean, those people isolated in the cold palace have all suffered from the plague, isn't it normal to take medicine to cure the disease. The folk girl's pills are also made one by one with my master, and not everyone can eat sugar balls. And it is a medicine that is three parts poisonous, and if you don't get sick, you will get sick if you take medicine. ”

"Master Ye Xiaozhuang, even the patients in the cold palace are divided into three, six, nine and so on, you should always understand this truth."

"Lord Courtyard, the people don't understand it. In the face of disease, all human lives are worthy of respect, just as the plague comes and indiscriminately infects. In the eyes of the people's daughters, there are all patients in the cold palace, and the people's daughters don't want to know which is the maid and which is the palace maid, or which person's life is precious and whose life is cheap. It is Langzhong's duty to save one more person's life, and the more people who are saved, the more fulfillment the people have. ”

"You! "The head of the courtyard was stunned and had nothing to say.

"Forget it, I told a rural village girl that she didn't understand. Old Imperial Doctor, you master and apprentice have also seen the patient, tell me about your prescription and treatment method. ”

"Your Majesty, the prescription still uses the original prescription of the grass people, and then blends in a certain percentage of the pills. At present, people who have not been rumored to be sick drink the medicinal soup of prevention, and those who have already been sick drink the medicinal soup mixed with the pills. The symptoms are really serious, so I took the pills directly. Lao Langzhong looked down at his toes and said, the person sitting on the dragon chair really didn't want to look at it.

"Master Ye Xiaozhuang, do you have anything else to add? It is rumored that your medical skills are a few more clever than your master? ”

"Your Majesty, the people feel that even what they see with their eyes is not necessarily the truth, let alone rumors outside. The emperor will not believe these exaggerated rumors. What to add? The folk girl really had a suggestion to boil herbs in the palace and the imperial city at the same time. The most scarce thing at the moment is the pills, and if there are enough herbs, the folk girls can boil the herbs in the palace. You don't need to roll it into balls, just weigh it according to the proportion. ”

"Lao Langzhong, please give us the prescription for the pills to our hospital. The herbs needed are only available in the Tai Hospital. The head of the courtyard said greedily.

"Master." Yuqing looked at the head of the courtyard with some anger.

"Apprentice, it's just a prescription." The old man had no choice but to hand over the prescription. ”

The master and apprentice played one by one in place, and the people on the dragon chair were in a good mood. It also made the head of the courtyard smile from ear to ear, and the little conspiracy in his heart succeeded.

"Your Majesty, when the maiden came to the palace, she saw that half of the decoction had been boiled in the open space, since it was my master's original recipe. I'll go over with the master to see what's wrong? ”

"It's good, it's a waste to throw it down, and the palace is poor now."

"Your Majesty the Dog, this is crying poverty to us." Yuyu said with contempt in the gods.

More than 10 cauldrons in the open space were rekindled with firewood, and the medicinal soup that had formed a layer of thin ice was boiled again after a while. The master and apprentice looked at each other.

"Apprentice, the order of this pot is different from the previous pot, and then increase the heat and boil for a while." Lao Langzhong handed the turning shovel to Yuqing and commented inside.

"Old Imperial Doctor, what is the order of delivery, isn't it all put into the pot at one time when boiling the medicinal soup?"

"No, no, the order in which the herbs are put directly affects the efficacy of the medicinal decoction. In the past, I was just like you, but I later compared the medicinal soup made by my apprentice to know the difference. ”

"It's a mystery." The imperial doctor next to him said disdainfully.

"Master, don't make senseless arguments, it's a big deal." Yuqing hurriedly persuaded the master who was about to get angry, and pulled Lao Langzhong to check the next pot of medicinal soup.

In this way, the master and apprentice stirred more than a dozen pots of medicinal soup in the disbelief and resentment of the imperial doctors. Strange to say, the taste of the medicinal soup that had been stirred by the master and apprentice had changed. Although everyone noticed the change, no one said it. Because in their hearts, they were not convinced by the imperial doctor of the year, and they didn't look down on the little girl Yuqing. Saying it is equivalent to admitting his own shortcomings, this is why Yuqing saw through the psychology of these people, and only then did he dare to mix the antibiotics in the space by turning the medicinal soup in front of everyone. A few pills are also added to each pot of medicinal broth.

Although Lao Langzhong didn't know the secret here, he firmly believed that after the medicinal soup turned by Yuqing, the effect would be doubled.

More than a dozen pots of medicinal soup were finally boiled, and at the insistence of Lao Langzhong's master and apprentice, some were sent to the cold palace first. Then the people in the palace brought the medicinal soup back to their palace.

"The head of the hospital, I bothered to tell the people who came to receive the medicine that those who were not sick should be diluted with water and drink a bowl of prevention. I already found myself uncomfortable and drank a bowl directly. ”

"Drink a bowl of plague and get it under control?" An imperial doctor asked distrustfully.

"Imperial Doctor, this is a medicine, not an elixir, and it is impossible for a bowl of medicine to be completely cured. It's still no problem to control the development of the plague, and tomorrow the adults can go to the cold palace to check the pulse of those seriously ill patients who have been isolated. ”

"Little farmer, don't hurt us. The old decay has to share the emperor's worries and solve problems while he has a healthy body, and even the air in that place is sick, and it is not a joke to take a sip. ”

"Oh, it turns out that the Imperial Physician also knows that this disease is transmitted through the air, and the corpse poison is emitted into the air and is exposed to people, and this plague is what happens. The folk girl didn't understand why she didn't dare to say it since everyone knew about it? Nor is it restrained against the source of the plague. Yu said lightly, the face of the imperial doctor was like a palette, white and red and white.

"Old Imperial Doctor, this is the apprentice you taught, no wonder you were kicked out of the palace back then. I don't know how to deal with the current affairs, and I don't know how my head fell out. ”

"I'm really grateful that I was kicked out of the palace back then, and I don't know how free I lived in the people. It's been this hour, are you still going to continue boiling the medicinal soup? The old imperial doctor said complacently, looking at the medicine boy who came over with the herbs in the distance and asked again.

"Old imperial doctor, more than half of the pills have been used, tomorrow I will go to the street to boil medicine, and now I have to make pills overnight."

"It seems that the head of the courtyard took the prescription and didn't show up again, so shouldn't he have boiled for a long time and didn't get the pills?" Yuqing said with an open-mouthed look again.

"Yes, the head of the hospital has been tinkering with pills in the small pharmacy of the Tai Hospital. This is not to send us all out, it is said that all the recipes are passed down from our ancestors. But in the hands of the next generation, there is a difference in the level of medical skills. Do you also have any tips for brewing medicinal soups that you don't pass on to the outside world? ”

"Imperial Physician, are you willing to pass on your own medical skills without reservation? Who doesn't have the ability to take care of the house, if the medical skills are the same, my master and I don't have to enter the palace. ”

"Apprentice, this is not in the villa, but you can't say anything." The old man pretended to be displeased and reprimanded.

"Old Imperial Doctor, do you see whether we are boiling the medicinal soup here to make pills, or going to the small pharmacy of the Tai Hospital?"

"It's right here, and you can boil some more. Tomorrow I will boil the medicinal soup in the imperial city, and I will need a lot of it. ”

"Huh? Old imperial doctor, you can think about it, a few more pots are not enough to let people help. ”

"Master Imperial Doctor, boiling the medicinal soup to make pills, the process is complicated, and the order of putting the herbs is more particular. If the adults have learned everything, it will be too late for my master and me to be happy. The recipe has been given to you, if you also learn the cooking skills, my master and I want to go back to the villa as soon as possible. Yuqing said in front of the old man again.

"Understand, who doesn't want to go home, it's just ......" was saying that the head of the hospital was coming, and the imperial doctor just didn't have a follow-up.

Even if he didn't finish speaking, Yuqing thought about it, it was not easy to leave the palace safely. The emperor's ruthlessness and the greed of the two heads of the courtyard are all factors that prevent his master and apprentice.

"Master, there's no fun in this palace at all. If the dog emperor does not let him go, the master can mess with his soul. The master has thousands of miles of horses, and he can't run out of the palace. Yuyu had an idea in Yuqing's divine sense.

"Yuyu, can your master's thousand-mile horse run out of this country? If you have a bad idea, you should think about how to make the dog emperor willingly let us leave the palace. ”
