After transforming into An Lingrong, he became the King of Juan and was crowned the Sixth Palace.

Seeing that Zhen Huan was there, An Lingrong walked to her side and asked with concern: "You haven't been feeling well lately. Are you feeling energetic today?"

Zhen Huan said: "Thank you very much for your concern, Lingrong. It's much better."

Before he finished speaking, he coughed twice in succession, turned around and blew his nose, and then said with an embarrassed smile: "I made everyone laugh, but it's just the cold, it's not getting better after it's been delayed for so long."

Zhen Huan's voice was quite nasal when she spoke, and her eyes were dull. It was probably caused by being locked up in Suiyuxuan for too long.

Next to her, Chun'er, who had a close relationship with An Lingrong, looked at the thinner Zhen Huan and said with a smile: "Sister An only looks at Sister Wan and ignores me. I am also your sister."

An Lingrong couldn't help but smile and said: "Yes, you are naturally An Lingrong's sister, why aren't we all sisters here?"

First, she won over An Lingrong, who was the concubine. Then, Chun'er pulled her sleeves and showed them to Zhen Huan, saying, "I've gained weight recently. Sister Wan, look, the clothes I just made are now tight at the cuffs." .”

Zhen Huan couldn't be wary of such a little sister.

She held back her laughter and counted the meals Chun'er had eaten at her place with her fingers, and said one by one: "Yes, breakfast is two bowls of red rice porridge and three caramel sugar buns, and lunch is stewed pork belly." Chicken, fat duck, and snacks before dinner."

Hearing this, Xin Bin tried her best to hold back her cheeks that were sore from laughing, and said, "It's not that I'm afraid I can't afford it, it's just that Chun Chang's belly is getting more and more round."

Chun'er listened blankly at first, but Zhen Huan finally came to her senses after counting her meals one by one.

She lowered her head, blushed and stamped her feet: "Sister Wan loves to laugh at me more and more."

Chun Chang lowered his head and looked at the magenta woven and gold-colored brocade robe on his body shyly and said: "But what Sister Wan said is that Chun'er can't eat like this anymore. The emperor said that every two of my clothes I’m about to get a new one every month, and I’m either taller or fatter. I really envy Sister Wan’s appearance, she’s always skinny.”

This sentence pierced Zhen Huan's heart. The reason for her thinness was not because the emperor had not seen her for several months and took Meizhuang and Lingrong to the villa to escape the summer...

The queen on the side smiled and said: "What does it matter if you are fatter? The emperor just likes you. I'm afraid your sister Wan is still envious of you for being able to eat."

After saying that, the queen looked at Zhen Huan and said, "It's not good to be so thin. You should also pay attention to conditioning while taking medicine."

Zhen Huan nodded helplessly and replied yes.

The queen's group's game ended quickly, and everyone resigned and left the palace after a while.

Jin Xi held An Lingrong's hand and was about to get on the sedan when Cao Qinmo smiled softly behind her, like the scorching sun in July, bright but vaguely burning.

"My sister is stupid. I have something to ask her."

An Lingrong knew that it was hard for her to say anything nice, but she could only patiently say, "Just ask Mr. Cao."

Cao Qinmo had the faint smell of Shuhen Glue floating around her body, and her every move was gentle and elegant. She asked with a gentle breath: "Sister, I really feel sorry for my sister. The emperor loves my sister so much. My sister has naturally endured the most rain and dew. Why haven't I got anything today?" Where’s the pregnancy news?”

An Lingrong knew that Cao Qinmo was trying to point out that since she had no heirs, the other party would not easily take sides.

Originally, An Lingrong wanted to answer Cao Qinmo's question with just a few tricks.

But in a blink of an eye, he caught a glimpse of Concubine Hua standing next to Cao Qinmo with a sarcastic smile on her face.

She looked back at Concubine Hua generously, bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty Cao just offended your concubine with your words. I would like to apologize to you on behalf of my sister. Please don't take offense at me."

Concubine Hua and Cao Qin were stunned and said in unison: "What?"

An Lingrong smiled and said solemnly: "Sister Cao just said that my concubines bear the most rain and dew but are not pregnant. Isn't this saying something about my sister that is damaging to the empress? Among the concubines over the years, after all, the empress has the most rain and dew. ah!"

Cao Qinmo was frightened and realized that he had lost his words. He couldn't help but look at Concubine Hua in horror and forced himself to smile calmly.

Concubine Hua changed her color slightly, but she remained silent. She only sneered twice, as if she was asking herself or An Lingrong, "Aren't you pregnant?"

Cao Qinmo heard Concubine Hua's bad tone and reached out to pull her sleeves. Concubine Hua shook her hand hard and said loudly: "So what if I'm pregnant, so what if I'm not pregnant? If fate cares about An Lingrong, he will definitely give me a baby." Son, if fate doesn’t favor me, I’ll just have a daughter, which is better than nothing.”

As he spoke, his eyes swept across Cao Qinmo's face sharply.

Cao Qinmo's face turned red and white, but he finally said nothing.

An Lingrong said quietly: "Your Majesty is right. Whether you have a child or not, being favored is ultimately favored. Even if the mother is more valuable than the son, it still depends on whether the child is in line with the emperor's wishes."

The next day, a serious epidemic spread in the palace. The disease started due to a sense of unhealthy qi. It first started with the low-level palace maids who were serving as handymen. At first, they just had headaches and fever.

No one paid much attention to it, and then the neck swelled.

Later, the disease of one person affects one room, and the disease of one room affects one palace.

The palace began to burn moxa leaves to drive away the epidemic, and everyone was in danger for a while.

The incense-burning prayers of the Queen Mother, the Queen, and the concubines did not win God's mercy, and the treatment provided by the Queen Mother Hospital was of a drop in the bucket and could not solve the urgent need.

More and more people were infected by the epidemic, and more and more people died. The fat and white emperor who was fed by An Lingrong gradually lost weight in anxiety.

Therefore, the precious spices burned in Yikun Palace and Yongshou Palace disappeared for a while, and the smell of burning mugwort leaves and atractylodes was everywhere.

Strong soju was sprinkled all over the alley in front of the palace, and later even vinegar was placed in various corners of the palace and boiled to ward off the epidemic.

Unfortunately, Yu Suiyuxuan and Zhen Huan, who basically stayed at home, were also infected with the terrible epidemic.

When An Lingrong and Meizhuang rushed to Suiyuxuan, Huanbi was already very anxious and said: "I was fine yesterday, but I vomited all the food I ate in the morning and had a severe fever. My young lady died at noon. Started talking nonsense.”

Meizhuang asked in surprise: "Where is the imperial doctor? Have you invited the imperial doctor?"

Huanbi shook her head and said: "My little master has been neglected and is easily infected by the epidemic. Which imperial doctor dares to come to treat you at this juncture? Liu Zhu has already sent people to invite people three or four times, but no one has come. What do you think? good?"

Huanbi was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, and her voice was already crying: "I have tried my best. I wanted to ask the emperor, but they said that the emperor had something to do, and no one was there. The queen mother, empress and several empresses were all praying in Tongming Hall. There’s not even anyone who can make up my mind.”

Meizhuang turned around and walked towards Broken Jade Pavilion. Caiyue beside him hurriedly pulled Meizhuang and said, "No, little master, what if you get infected with the epidemic?"

Mei Zhuang said: "No matter what the situation is, you have to go see it before talking about it."

With that said, she pulled away with all her strength. Caiyue was afraid of the seriousness of the epidemic and the way Meizhuang was angry, so she didn't dare to pull her again.

Sister Jianmei is still thinking about Zhen Huan, and An Lingrong also doesn't want the future Concubine Xi to go offline so early.

So, after speaking to Caiyue, she hurriedly left with the palace attendants.

She is naturally confident of defeating the epidemic.After all, I have been in this world for so long, and I have to make some preparations. The thatched cottage behind Xiangfang has been running and doing research on these things.

At the same time, Mei Zhuang rushed in like a storm, but no one stopped her.

When they arrived at the door of the inner room, the palace officials refused to let Mei Zhuang in again. They only allowed Mei Zhuang to take a look through the window. She cried: "The young master is already like this. Concubine Hui must take care of herself, otherwise the young master will not even be able to see her again." There is no one left who can speak."

Mei Zhuang was shocked and said, "Okay, I'll just watch it for a while."

The light in the room was dim, the curtains were hung low, and a lot of dust had accumulated, making them always gray and blurry. The figure lying behind the curtains was extremely thin.

Zhen Huan seemed to have had a very uneasy sleep, coughing repeatedly.

Mei Zhuang was so anxious that he couldn't bear to look any further. He turned around quickly and left, saying with the last words: "Please take care of Huan'er, I will go and seek the emperor's will."

However, Meizhuang did not see the emperor. He saw the shadow of the sun turning and waiting for half a day, but it was Su Peisheng who came out. He smiled and said with a sad face: "Ms. Hui, don't be surprised. The current epidemic has spread to the people, and the emperor is extremely anxious. I am currently discussing with the cabinet ministers and I really don’t have time to see you.”

Meizhuang asked again: "How long will it take for the emperor to see me?"

Su Peisheng said: "This servant doesn't know anything about it. I don't dare to make random guesses about military and national affairs."

When he was helpless, he heard footsteps approaching, and Mei Zhuang hurriedly wiped away the tears on his face.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, it was An Lingrong.

An Lingrong's body was mixed with the smell of herbs, and as a gust of wind blew by, it made the two of them feel a chill on their cheeks.

Meizhuang said softly: "Lingrong, do you have any way to save Huan'er?"

An Lingrong said sincerely: "Yes, but this matter requires sister Mei to wait patiently for a while. When Lingrong meets the emperor, sister Wan's health will definitely be better."

With An Lingrong's personal guarantee, Meizhuang's heart changed and he said, "I believe you."

An Lingrong asked to see the emperor all night long. When the imperial study room was closed, the door with carved patterns and red lacquer and filled with gold suddenly opened in the dark night.

Just as he was about to bow down, the emperor grabbed An Lingrong and said, "What's the matter? Are you so anxious to see me?"

"emperor……"

The waiters had all been sent out early, and the two of them sat next to each other. In the large red gold engraved cauldron on the ground, the incense was burning, faintly and continuously, quietly spreading into the depths of the Nuan Pavilion.

Baihexiang is made from the powder of more than [-] spices such as agarwood and clove, sprinkled with wine to soften it, and mixed with white honey. It is specially used in the winter months.

Smell carefully, there is an intoxicating warm fragrance.

Coupled with the heat from the floor heating stove, the warm and fragrant fragrance in the pavilion becomes even more like being in the sea of ​​​​flowers in Shanglin Garden in spring.

The use of Baihe Incense began in the Three Kingdoms period. The production method has been lost after being circulated for several times, and it is also very rare in the palace. The ones used are all from Lingrong's hands.

An Lingrong knew that the emperor liked to smell some elegant spices, so she devoted herself to studying these things. The time and energy she spent was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

After several experiments, An Lingrong came up with a new recipe for making Ayurveda.

At this moment, there are large windows facing south in the Nuan Pavilion. They are covered with clear paper and let in the blue-white moonlight outside, illuminating the whole hall brightly.

An Lingrong faced him in silence, so quiet that she could hear the fine red charcoal in the charcoal basin making a soft beeping sound occasionally, and the steam gurgling out.

The kang on the floor in the pavilion was too warm, making people sweat slightly.

An Lingrong held the medicinal materials and prescription for a long time, and her fingers felt a little astringent, fearing that the bright yellow satin would be stained by sweat.

But before the emperor spoke, An Lingrong still maintained her previous posture and words and did not move.

Xuan Ling said: "Rong Ercheng's prescription can really alleviate the spread of the epidemic? But from what book did you read it?"

An Lingrong knew that Fat Orange would doubt her, so she didn't say anything more. She just handed over the prescriptions and herbs in her hand that were stained with ink and looked very old, and the fonts were difficult to distinguish.

Not only that, An Lingrong said: "I think it should be feasible. I looked through this prescription for a long time in the Imperial Hospital today. What I found was reviewed by Imperial Doctor Wen, so I brought it to the emperor as soon as possible. ."

Hearing this, the emperor patiently looked at the scrawled handwriting, which looked like a prescription written casually by someone of the previous generation, and frowned.

He took the prescription to the chopping board and re-wrote it for a long time, with beads of sweat appearing on his hairline.

An Lingrong wiped it carefully for him and said, "How about changing into something new? This robe seems to be too thick."

He shook An Lingrong's hand and smiled: "I was only busy copying the prescription for you and showing it to the other doctors in the Imperial Hospital. I actually forgot to change my clothes."

An Lingrong couldn't help but feel warm. She glanced at the figure standing outside the door and said, "There is someone outside. Your Majesty is not afraid of being embarrassed."

Just as he was about to go out to see what was going on, the thick brocade curtain was lifted, and a gust of cold wind came to his eyes accompanied by a proud laugh.

Concubine Hua was holding something similar to An Lingrong's, but obviously very new, like a prescription that had just been written on it, and she stood there carefree.

She rushed in like a gust of wind, and Su Peisheng, who was chasing after her so anxiously, turned pale.

The emperor frowned, Songzhi was worried, but Concubine Hua, without realizing it, smiled and saluted, "I have worked so hard to flip through the pages of medical books to find a prescription for the emperor to treat the current epidemic, and finally I have some clues."

After saying that, she rolled her eyes at An Lingrong and said, "It's strange that Concubine An came to the emperor instead of taking care of the sick Wan Changzai."

An Lingrong didn't react at all, and replied with a smile: "Hua Concubine is considerate of the palace people, and my younger sister should naturally learn from Hua Concubine. My sister just heard that Concubine Hua also got a prescription to treat the epidemic. I don't know where it came from? "

Concubine Hua was just about to say that it had nothing to do with you, but she saw the emperor's eyes full of suspicion, and her heart tightened. She answered honestly: "It's the medicine that two Imperial Physicians Jiang and my concubine stayed up all night and mixed with various medicinal materials."

When he heard that the prescription came from two gynecological doctors, the emperor felt less hopeful about the prescription presented to Concubine Hua.

But there was indeed no good prescription in the palace at the moment. He waved his hand and motioned to Concubine Hua to bring up the prescription.

Concubine Hua laid out the prescription, and the emperor could tell the difference between the two with just one glance.

The ancient method used by An Lingrong, although it consumes a lot of medicinal materials, is not expensive and difficult for hospitals to come up with.
