Chapter 284 Mango
Lin Yun was secretly arrested without disturbing anyone, but following his confession, some discordant officials in the capital were arrested. Suddenly, the capital was in turmoil and the court was in turmoil.

The store's business was affected. At the end of the month, the shopkeeper sent the account book to Yun Mansion.

Zhao Wangshu looked through the account books and said, "The Malatang business is still going well. As expected, food is the most important thing for the people. No matter what, we have to eat it."

Luzhi came in with a bowl of sugar-cheeseed cherries, "This man is so busy, not just for this bite."

Zhao Wangshu smiled and took the sugar-cheese cherry and took a bite. It was sweet but slightly sour, and the taste was very unique.

While she was eating, Yao Shanzhi came and said, "Yue'er, I brought you something delicious."

Zhao Wangshu saw Yao Shanzhi carrying a basket and asked with a smile: "What?"

Yao Shanzhi put the basket on the table and took out four or five mangoes with green tips from it as if they were offering treasures. "Yue'er, do you know what these are?"

"Mango, where did it come from?" Zhao Wangshu asked curiously.

"Do you know him?" Yao Shanzhi asked in surprise.

"What you are asking about is recorded in the "Lingnan Medicine Collection Record". Mango is sour, sweet, and cool in nature." Zhao Wangshu put down the bowl and said, "Lvzhi, go bring a bowl of sugared cheese and cherries to the county boss."

""Lingnan Medicine Collection"? Do you have this book?" Yao Shanzhi frowned in thought.

"You haven't told me yet, where did these mangoes come from?" Zhao Wangshu asked.

"There were dozens of baskets of tributes sent from the Guangdong Ya Kingdom, and one basket was distributed to the princess's house. There were about thirty baskets. I took six of them for you to try." Yao Shanzhi said.

"Thank you for thinking of me." Zhao Wangshu smiled.

When Lvzhi came in with sugared cheese cherries, Zhao Wangshu asked her to take the mango, cut it into small dices, and then bring it back.

Yao Shanzhi frowned and said, "I heard from my servants that the skin of this mango is quite difficult to get rid of."

"It's not difficult to make, look at me." Zhao Wangshu asked Luzhi to take a knife, cut along the core, remove the core, then cut the pulp into small dices, put it in a bowl, pour sugar and cheese on it, and stir evenly.

"That's good." Zhao Wangshu handed the bowl to Yao Shanzhi, "Try it."

Yao Shanzhi took a bite and nodded: "Sweet but not greasy, rich in taste, really delicious."

"This mango is not only delicious, but also has medicinal value." Zhao Wangshu smiled, "According to the "Lingnan Medicine Collection Record", mango can quench thirst, promote fluid production, eliminate phlegm and relieve cough. It is a good choice for people who are intolerable to the heat in the hot summer. nice one."

Mango is indeed a good thing, but it can be fatal to people with severe allergies.

The Prince of Zuocheng County also received half a basket of mangoes as a reward from the emperor. The Princess of Zuocheng County was pregnant and swallowed her saliva as she smelled the unique fragrance of the mangoes.

Mangoes are not common, and she did not know that she was allergic to mangoes. As soon as she ate them, red rashes appeared all over her body and she was short of breath. "It feels so uncomfortable. I feel so uncomfortable."

The maid was so frightened that she shouted loudly: "Call the doctor quickly."

The doctor was called and was shocked to see Princess Zuocheng like this. He checked her pulse and said, "The princess's pulse is like a storm, and there is a rash on her face. This is ringworm and scabies."

The maid's face turned pale, "What kind of ringworm disease? How could the princess get this disease?"

The mother-in-law urged the doctor to prescribe medicine, "The princess feels so uncomfortable, please prescribe a prescription quickly."

The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It's not that the official doesn't prescribe the prescription, but the princess is pregnant, so this medicine cannot be taken casually."

"What can we do?" The maid and the mother-in-law were anxious to death.

Princess Zuocheng's breathing became more and more rapid, her eyes rolled up, and her situation was very critical. The doctor's forehead was covered with sweat. If he could not save the princess, his life might not be saved.

Suddenly, he thought of something, and his eyes lit up, "Quick, prepare a basin of water, the more the better, and find some soft cloth."

Although the maid and mother-in-law did not understand what the doctor was going to do, they saw his serious expression and knew that the situation was serious. They did not dare to neglect and immediately followed his instructions to prepare.

Prince Zuocheng was also alarmed and hurried over from the study, "Why is this happening? Doctor, what happened to my princess?"

"To tell you what the prince is saying, the princess is suffering from ringworm and scabies." The doctor replied.

Prince Zuo Cheng frowned, "The princess has always been in good health, how could she suddenly have ringworm and scabies?"

"The official is looking at the princess's condition. It is very likely that she has accidentally eaten something that can cause scabies. But please rest assured, Your Majesty, as long as the princess is treated in time, the princess should be fine."

Prince Zuocheng's face turned slightly pale, but although he didn't like Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wu was pregnant with his child after all. If he could give birth to a legitimate son, it would be helpful for him to seize the throne. He didn't want anything to happen to Mrs. Wu.

"What needs to be done?" Prince Zuocheng asked.

At this time, clean water and a soft cloth were brought over, and the doctor told the maid, "Wipe the princess's body. This will relieve the itching, redness and swelling."

The maid helped the princess wipe her body. Prince Zuocheng and the doctor came to the outer room. The doctor asked the mother-in-law, "Did the princess eat something that she doesn't usually eat?"

Princess Zuocheng is pregnant, so everyone in the palace should be very cautious about her food.

The mother-in-law thought about it for a moment, "I remember that the princess suddenly felt uncomfortable after eating the mango given by her majesty."

"Mango?" The doctor lowered his head and thought. There were not many records about mangoes in the medicine books. He was not sure whether the mango caused the princess's scabies.

"Your Majesty, I suspect that the mango caused the princess's discomfort."

"Are you sure?" Prince Zuocheng asked with a frown.

"The official is not sure, but the princess' symptoms only appeared after eating mangoes. There may be some connection between them." The doctor replied cautiously.

"Go and prepare some medicine to make the princess feel comfortable first." Prince Zuocheng ordered.

"Your Majesty, the princess is pregnant, and the subordinates dare not prescribe medicine at will. It would be more appropriate for the prince to go to the palace and invite the imperial doctor for consultation." The palace doctor cautiously suggested.

"This makes sense, I will go to the palace." Prince Zuocheng had a legitimate reason to enter the palace.

He was going to the palace to see if his father and mother would have any problems after eating mangoes.

If there was a problem, he would be just in time to save his father.

As soon as he left, Princess Zuocheng's condition became even more critical. "My stomach hurts so much. It hurts so much."

Only then did the maid announce that the princess' private parts were bleeding, "It's not good, it's not good, the doctor, the doctor should come in quickly."

As soon as another maid pulled the quilt to cover the princess, the doctor came in. After checking her pulse, it was found that the fetus in the princess's belly could no longer be saved.

There was a panic in the main courtyard. In the side courtyard, Ma Qiaoqiao laughed loudly, "You idiot, idiot, she killed the child herself before I even took action."

Prince Zuocheng, who was rushing into the palace, had no idea that the legitimate son he had longed for had turned into blood.

In the palace, the person who was allergic to mangoes was not the emperor nor Princess Zuocheng’s biological mother, Concubine Chun, but Concubine Jing and the eighth prince.

Concubine Jing's face was swollen like a pig's head. The imperial doctors were diagnosing her pulse. The eighth prince's whole body was covered in red rashes.
