General doctor's wife

Chapter 14

"Asheng, you and Mrs. Lu have a good discussion on medical principles, and I will go to the study with General Lu." After breakfast, Emperor Deqing will be busy with government affairs and will not stay for long.

"Your Majesty, how about we have a banquet at noon? Can you come over?" The queen stood beside Emperor Deqing, with attachment in her tone.

Emperor Deqing gently stroked the queen's lower abdomen: "Of course, I will definitely accompany you well."

The queen showed a shy expression like a little daughter: "The concubine is waiting for your majesty."

It wasn't until Emperor Deqing was sent out of the Changchun Palace that the Empress slowly walked back to the main hall while holding on to Manqiu's hand.

"Your Majesty, it's still early, why don't I accompany you out for a walk, so I can see if the time for daily activities is appropriate based on your strength." Qin Ranran looked at the queen's sluggish spirit, and said involuntarily .

Wan Qiu hesitated for a moment: "Mrs. Lu, shouldn't your empress be in a state where she needs to take a rest first?"

Qin Ranran raised her eyebrows in surprise when she heard the words: "Is this what the imperial doctor ordered? Madam, this is the lack of energy caused by physical weakness. If you don't exercise your muscles and bones to make your body full of blood, it will be useless to your body. If you rest, your spirit will become weaker."

The queen was silent for a while, and didn't mention the matter of going to the Royal Garden, but said to Ban Qiu: "Go and get the prescription from Li Taiyi and show it to Mrs. Lu."

Qin Ranran's heart skipped a beat. The queen was definitely not aimless. Thinking about the fact that both the emperor and the queen agreed to allow him to diagnose the queen's pulse and prescribe prescriptions for the queen, he was on guard against the imperial physicians.

She took the thick stack of prescriptions in Ban Qiu's hand, and looked at them carefully.

Her gaze stayed on a prescription for a long time, then she raised her head to look at Wanqiu: "Miss Wanqiu, did your mother suffer from fever in the summer three years ago? It may be a less obvious fever, but it is always there A little low-grade fever, please ask aunt to think about it, this matter is very important."

Hearing this, Wanqiu looked solemn, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "No, although my lady sweats a lot at night, her body is always chilly, and my lady would not be able to bear a slight low-grade fever. If she had a low-grade fever three years ago, The imperial physician will definitely be called in.”

Qin Ranran nodded, then looked down at the prescription in her hand, then put the previous prescription together and handed it to Banqiu: "Auntie, you won't need these anymore, please put them away."

The queen kept silent, drinking the stone frankincense slowly, as if all this had nothing to do with her.

After reading all the remaining prescriptions, Qin Ranran took out the pulse pillow: "Madam, I want to check your pulse again."

The queen put her hand on the pulse pillow as she said, and Qin Ranran's fingers touched the queen's slender wrist again.

It seemed that the time for pulse diagnosis this time was extraordinarily long, and there was even a hint of worry on Wan Qiu's face.

Qin Ranran retracted her fingers, and pondered for a moment: "Is your lady still using this imperial physician's prescription?"

Ban Qiu hurriedly replied: "It's been five days since I didn't use it."

"Then, how many of the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital know that the empress is pregnant?"

"Only this Imperial Physician Li." Wan Qiu continued to answer.

Qin Ranran got up, walked to Xiudun, gave a deep blessing, and said, "My concubine's next words, please don't get angry after hearing this."

She raised her eyes to look at the empress's calm expression, and then continued: "I'm afraid there is something wrong with this doctor Li. Judging from the empress's body, the empress can't even bear a low-grade fever, so she doesn't need to use Scrophulariaceae at all, but should use it." Codonopsis pilosula is the one. Putting Scrophulariaceae and licorice together will clear away heat, and combining Codonopsis licorice and licorice will help the symptoms of the empress."

"From this prescription three years ago to the present, Scrophulariaceae and licorice will appear in every few prescriptions of the empress. After drinking for a long time, the empress's body becomes weak."

Wan Qiu couldn't believe it, she asked anxiously: "But Your Majesty has also seen this prescription and mentioned it, but Imperial Physician Li said that there is heat in your mother's blood, if you don't clear it, it will not be good for your body."

Qin Ranran said with a smile: "I am a girl, but I am somewhat sure of my medical skills. Not only does the empress not have a trace of blood heat in her body, but she is also too cold. If it goes on for a long time, it will also damage the health of the fetus. .”

The queen put down the teacup in her hand, and stretched out her hand to help Qin Ranran get up: "I believe you."

"Wan Qiu, you go to the study room and wait. When your majesty is done with work, please tell your majesty about this matter. Please make an idea. Mrs. Lu will accompany me to the imperial garden for a walk. I will start mending it from today, and it will have some effect after all." of."

Wan Qiu blessed her body, turned around and backed out.

Qin Ranran held the Queen's arm, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had made the right bet for the time being.

Without the support of these two in the palace, it would be difficult to protect Lu Chengan's safety.

If I help the empress give birth to Lin'er with all my heart, even if Emperor Deqing goes away in the future, Lin'er will be the new emperor and the empress will be the empress dowager, he will always be able to secure a place in the general's mansion.

Even if she is a princess, since she has done her best for the queen, she should be somewhat sure of asking the emperor for a way out.

The imperial garden in early winter is not like ordinary mansions where there is not much to see. The gardeners in the palace are trying to please the nobles. All kinds of chrysanthemums and poinsettia compete in the imperial garden. It looks like spring season.

"I like to look at the colorful flowers, and I feel at ease when I look at them." The queen looked at the flowers in front of her, and she seemed to be in a much better mood.

Qin Ranran smiled and said, "Young lady, you can watch more if you like. When you feel better, your body will naturally recover."

"You're right, I should come out more often to look at the flowers." The Queen agreed with her words with a smile.

"The concubine has met the empress, good luck to the empress." A soft voice suddenly came, interrupting the conversation between the two.

Knowing that she was a concubine in the harem, Qin Ranran also blessed her.

"Get up." The queen's voice was indiscriminate, "Concubine Yuan is also interested in going out for a walk?"

The woman's voice is crisp, yet gentle, making it very comfortable to hear.

Qin Ranran raised her eyes slightly, and saw that the other party was wearing a lake-blue water-sleeve pleated phoenix-tailed skirt, and a hairpin inlaid with sapphire tassels hung from the Yunjin incense bun. Thin blue crushed gemstones were inlaid on the tassels. Shining slightly.

When seeing Concubine Yuan's face, Qin Ranran jumped out word by word in her mind: Moon eyebrows and star eyes, crimson lips reflecting the sun, snow-skinned and flowery appearance, bright and dignified...

Concubine Yuan replied respectfully: "The concubine has nothing to do all day long, so she just strolls around the garden and draws a picture. It is no more difficult than the empress's management of the harem."

The queen also smiled gently, but the smile didn't reach her eyes: "I will walk with Mrs. Lu, so I won't delay Concubine Yuan's painting."

Concubine Yuan bowed her head respectfully again: "Respectfully send off the empress."

After the two walked away, Qin Ranran caught sight of Concubine Yuan just getting up from the corner of her eye.

"Concubine Yuan is a beauty, what does Mrs. Lu think?" The queen was still smiling, but her smile when she was talking about flowers was much weaker when she closed her eyes.

Qin Ranran had a serious expression: "It's not as dignified and generous as your mother, so it can be seen that there is a definite number for who will go and which way to go."

"I always feel safe when I talk to you."
