General doctor's wife

Chapter 12 Diagnosis of Pulse
In the early winter morning, there was a chill, and at the end of the Yin hour, the lights of the general's mansion were turned on.

"Ma'am, where is the maid..." Mother Liu asked Qin Ranran, who was washing her clothes.

Qin Ranran picked up a pair of ruby ​​earrings and compared them next to her ears: "Just leave it alone, and let people look at it. The longer you wait, the more you can see a person's character."

Mama Liu responded readily, and immediately picked up a pair of pearl earrings in the treasure box: "Ma'am, what do you think of this?"

Qin Ranran took it, compared it to her ear, and replied with a smile: "It looks good, it should go with that set of pearls."

Maisui tied up a bun with clouds, and slowly fixed the hairpin.

Qingdai thrush eyebrows, light rouge, refreshing dress looks smart and gentle.

Instructing Hao Maisui to watch out for the newly bought maid, Lu Chengan and Qin Ranran took Manager Li and Mama Liu out of the house in the middle of the day.

The imperial palace always looks majestic at all times.

When Qin Ranran got out of the car again at the palace gate, she still couldn't get rid of the tense and solemn feeling in her heart.

It was still Eunuch Liu who brought the soft sedan chair to pick them up to the Queen's Changchun Palace. Sitting on the sedan chair, Qin Ranran keenly felt that today's sedan chair was much faster than yesterday.

After about a quarter of an hour, Qin Ranran saw the gate of Changchun Palace.

Lu Chengan warned in a low voice: "I'll go to His Majesty, be careful yourself, I will persuade His Majesty to come with you as soon as possible."

Qin Ranran gave him a look calmly, indicating that she understood, and what he told her about the concubines in the palace last night rang in her mind.

The empress looked amiable and amiable, but in fact she was amiable and amiable. However, as an empress without a legitimate son, she had an unusual means of being able to stand in the harem without losing her sacred heart for so many years.

"Ma'am, Mrs. Lu is here." Eunuch Liu's voice interrupted Qin Ranran's thoughts, and she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed that she was distracted on such an occasion and such a place.

"My concubine pays her respects." Qin Ranran bowed respectfully.

"Get up, Wan Qiu, go and help Mrs. Lu up." The queen's voice was still warm, with a hint of excitement in it.

Wan Qiu walked up to Qin Ranran and held her arm, and Qin Ranran took the opportunity to size her up.Pan Qiu was about the same age as the Empress, with a fair complexion, but fine lines had already appeared at the corners of her eyes.

"Thank you, Aunt Wanqiu." Qin Ranran politely blessed her.

Wan Qiu hastily turned sideways to avoid this ceremony: "You don't dare to be a servant, Madam is too polite."

The queen saw all this in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Lu, I invited you here so early today because I want you to help me diagnose my pulse. To tell you the truth, the imperial physician in the palace will only Alarmist talk or whitewashing, I really have heard enough of their rhetoric."

Qin Ranran couldn't answer the question, so she had to ask, "Madam, where can we get the pulse?"

The queen supported Panqiu's arm and got up slowly: "Go to the inner room."

The two went to the inner room, and as soon as they were done, a little palace maid came outside to report: "My Lady, Concubine Zhengui, Concubine Shu and Guiren Qiu have come to pay your respects."

A trace of displeasure flashed across the queen's face: "Just say that I am discussing medical principles with Mrs. Lu, and let them wait outside the palace."

Hearing this, Qin Ranran smiled wryly in her heart. These concubines in the harem didn't dare to do anything to the queen, so they must have hated themselves.

Seeing her helpless look, the queen smiled and said, "Don't worry, you are now the sweet potato in the eyes of concubines who have children."

Qin Ranran's thoughts changed sharply, and she hurriedly got up and knelt down: "I dare not."

The queen looked at her performance and nodded secretly, she was a smart one.Turning her head, motioned for Wan Qiu to help her up: "I know General Lu's feelings for you, Your Majesty understands General Lu's loyalty better than I do."

Qin Ranran stood up, and couldn't help but feel at ease.

She gathered herself together and said to the queen, "Madam, please extend your hand."

The slender fingers were neatly trimmed, without any Danko, making people feel comfortable just looking at them. The queen watched the fingers touch her wrist, and her nervous mood gradually calmed down.

Qin Ranran felt the queen's pulse carefully with her fingers, but felt that it was weak and weak, and she couldn't find the weak pulse with a little effort.

Her expression couldn't help becoming serious: "Is your mother not thinking about eating or drinking? Sweating and dreaming a lot at night?"

The queen nodded in response: "Yes, I feel unappetizing when I see everything, and I have to get up and change pajamas several times at night."

Qin Ranran withdrew her finger after hearing what the queen said, "Is your mother a vegetarian? How long has this been the case?"

The queen hesitated for a while, but still said: "Five years ago, my son had a miscarriage. Since then, I have started to be a vegetarian, and I have such symptoms."

Qin Ranran thought for a while, and asked, "Madam, do you need me to write a prescription, or should I ask the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital to write a prescription?"

The queen said without hesitation: "Just write a prescription, I trust you."

Pan Qiu stepped forward and led Qin Ranran to the desk to grind ink for her.

Scorched grains, rice buds, gallinaceous gold, gardenia, coriander root... the same medicinal materials were written down, and the queen looked at her standard hairpin lower script and exclaimed: "Good calligraphy!"

Qin Ranran didn't know it, she picked up the pen and scribbled on the prescription for a while, finally put down the pen, took another piece of paper, copied the prescription carefully, and handed it to Wan Qiu beside her: "Trouble me Aunt Qiu, I must find a trustworthy person to make the medicine, and there is a flavor of dried ginger, the current situation of the empress is really difficult to use more, but the effect of this recipe will be greatly reduced without this flavor."

"So I decided on the amount after some consideration. It doesn't matter if the amount is too much or too little, especially if it's too much."

"My lady's spleen and stomach are too weak, and I can't bear too violent effects, so I can only recuperate slowly. The concubine is bold enough to suggest that my lady stop being a vegetarian and eat some chicken soup or beef every day. Then Auntie Banqiu will accompany her every day in the Take a walk in the imperial garden, for a quarter of an hour in the morning and a quarter of an hour in the afternoon on the tenth day, I will check the pulse of your empress in ten days' time."

Ban Qiu hurriedly responded, went to the door to summon a smart-looking court lady, gave some instructions in a low voice, and burned the altered prescription before returning to continue serving.

After listening to Qin Ranran's words, the queen first went to the altar where a Bodhisattva statue was enshrined, burned three sticks of incense, clasped her hands together, and said a few words in a low voice.Then he turned around and told Banqiu: "Go and get me a bowl of chicken soup noodles for breakfast."

Then she looked at Qin Ranran again, "Thank you very much." Before Qin Ranran could reply, she said again, "Let's go and see those waiting outside."

Qin Ranran's words rolled on her lips a few times, and finally said: "Your Majesty, don't get angry."

When the queen heard this sentence, she suddenly burst out laughing: "I won't get angry with these boring people. If they are in a bad mood and can be punished, they will be punished to copy scriptures, or they will stand in the corridor. As the lord of the harem, it would be too aggrieved if I can't even follow my own wishes in this matter."
