Chapter 24

The time for a cup of tea, but Du Qingtan felt as if several hours had passed.

It was not easy for the eunuch to come out, and his voice was low: "It hurts badly, and nothing is pleasing to the eye. Be careful, Eleventh Lang."

Wu Pengju nodded and asked Du Qingtan: "Did you hear that?"

"Yes." Du Qingtan took a deep breath and followed Wu Pengju inside.

This matter was very crucial and important to her, and she couldn't be content with it, so her hands hidden in her sleeves were soaked in cold sweat.

Turning around a silver pinto flower-and-bird screen, I saw a fat man lying on his side on a couch.

Looking at his attire, Du Qingtan guessed that it was King Liang himself.

Liang Wang leaned on the jade pillow and closed his eyes to doze off. Standing beside him were three or four beautiful maidservants, all of whom lowered their heads and looked down, as dumb as clay sculptures.

Wu Pengju was about to speak when he heard King Liang cough, as if he was about to spit.

The maid who was closest to the couch quickly picked up the spittoon and moved towards her. For some reason, King Liang swung her face with his palm and sent her flying.

The maid didn't dare to cry, so she quickly got up and knelt down on the ground, silently kowtowing desperately.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Du Qingtan heard the sound of kowtow again and again, a bone-chilling chill rose from the soles of her feet, and went straight into the bones, making her stiff and cold.

King Liang gestured impatiently without even opening his eyes.

At this moment, the maid let out a weak sob, but her mouth was quickly covered.

Wu Pengju turned a blind eye to it, and smiled and bowed, and said softly: "Uncle, my nephew saw you coming, is your old man feeling better?"

Liang Wang opened his eyes and glanced at him, and said angrily, "What do you think?"

Wu Pengju said, "Knowing about my uncle's illness, my nephew is worried about it every day. I ask people everywhere to search for folk remedies and test them. I just want to relieve my uncle's worries. Heaven has paid off, and finally let my nephew find out about it!"

A light flashed in King Liang's eyes, and he said impatiently, "Bring it quickly!"

Wu Pengju signaled Du Qingtan to come forward: "The prescription is hers, and she will only say it when she sees you, old man."

The cold and violent gaze fell on Du Qingtan's face, like a steel knife scraping bones, which made people feel chilling and frightening.

Du Qingtan took a deep breath, bowed upright, lowered his head and said, "Jingzhao Du's Du Wuniang, a folk girl, has a secret recipe handed down from her family, which is specially used to treat snake sores, and the medicine can quickly relieve the pain and itching, and the effect is amazing. good."

Liang Wang glanced at Wu Pengju.

Wu Pengju said, "What do you want?"

"When my father was alive, he was betrothed to the Lanling Xiao family for a daughter of the people..."

Du Qingtan briefly explained the situation, and bowed deeply: "The Xiao family is too deceitful, they act viciously, and leave no room for it. I implore the prince to be the master of the people's daughters, and save my family from the fire and water."

Liang Wang sneered.

Du Qingtan didn't know what he meant, but felt terrified.

But the eunuch said: "You are so bold! Since you have the secret recipe, you should offer it up! How dare you bargain with the nobleman! Do you think you have a long life?"

Du Qingtan didn't intend to be slaughtered, so he said in a soft voice: "In any case, this prescription will definitely be offered, but I hope His Highness can show some mercy for the sake of the women's last achievements."

King Liang rolled his eyes again.

The eunuch said again: "It's a joke! You don't know whether your prescription is useful, but you dare to claim credit! Let me ask you, if the prescription is useless, how can you atone for your sin?"

"Minnv is willing to use the head of the item as a guarantee."

Du Qingtan was pushed again and again, and when he was pushed to a dead end, he was not afraid anymore, isn't that the way it is?Just do it!
After a long while, only King Liang snorted.

Wu Pengju hurriedly said: "Du Wuniang, why don't you thank Liang Wang quickly! Liang Wang promised you!"

Du Qingtan breathed a sigh of relief, saluted and thanked him, and asked for pen and ink to write out the prescription.

"Premium icing sugar, ice flakes, gold spoon, glass bowl, white jade pestle? Two beautiful girls? In addition, we need a secret room where no one is allowed to disturb us?"

Wu Pengju didn't expect this so-called "secret recipe" to be used by a beautiful girl, and his protruding eyes bulged like frogs: "What do you want a beautiful girl for?"

Naturally, she was putting on airs, but Du Qingtan was as steady as an old dog: "It has its own magical effect. Don't worry, it won't hurt them."

Wu Pengju had no choice but to look at Liang Wang foolishly, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"Hurry up and do it!" Liang Wang was tormented by the illness and was about to go crazy, but if there was a glimmer of hope, he would try it.

In no time, everything was ready.

Du Qingtan ordered the two beautiful maidservants: "Please also stand by the door and block the wind for me."

The two stood still, she took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve and poured the contents into a glass bowl.

It was a fresh earthworm just dug out of the soil, cut open by her and washed the soil, and stored in it for later use.

Take a spoonful of icing sugar with a golden spoon, sprinkle it evenly on the earthworms, add ice flakes, stir well, and then let it stand still until the juice is marinated, then filter and use.

Earthworms are used as medicine and are called earthworms, which have a cooling effect.

The best icing sugar is white sugar, which can help wounds heal.

Although this prescription is extremely simple, it is very effective. It is a prescription that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

The reason for the beautiful girl, the gold spoon, the glass bowl, and the white jade pestle are all gimmicks.

Because at this time, the rich and powerful officials of the royal family believed in alchemy to maintain longevity, and even more believed that precious gold and silver utensils could prolong life.

If bluff can help success, Du Qingtan will not be polite.

As soon as the earthworms were pickled, Wu Pengju came to urge him: "Hurry up, I can't wait!"

Du Qingtan said helplessly: "It takes half an hour to refine a rare medicine, just like good wine needs to be boiled carefully, the time is not enough, the medicine is not effective enough, so there is no rush."

Wu Pengju had no choice but to frighten her from the sidelines: "It's better that your prescription is really useful, otherwise you will be miserable!"

Du Qingtan just smiled.

Wu Pengju said again: "But since you were introduced by Dugu and you are so good-looking, maybe I can intercede for you."

"Thank you." Du Qingtan just bowed slightly, and then became a saw-mouth gourd again.

"..." Wu Pengju originally thought she was delicate and cute, but I felt sorry for her, so I wanted to tease her, but I didn't want her to be so boring and boring, so I lost interest and turned my face aside to look at the air.

"Dang!" There was a crisp sound, and it was the little eunuch who had timed the time to strike the gong, which made Du Qingtan jump.

She immediately drove away all the people in the room, and then asked the two beauties, Xiaocuti, to guard the doors and windows, filter the earthworm sugar juice by herself, put it in a calendula, and handed it to Wu Pengju who couldn't wait for a long time.

Wu Pengju left and never came back.
