The most cattle country medical concubine

Chapter 127 The Empress Dowager Pleases (5)
The aunt was startled suddenly, knocked her head and said, "Could it be that those people want Master Nineteen to—"

My aunt didn't dare to say the word death, but she had already said what the queen mother was most afraid of.

People often die in the palace.A dead slave is nothing, but a dead master is a big deal, especially the emperor's son.Master Wanli has had so many sons so far, but more than half of them died.This matter has always been the emperor's heart disease, and even the empress dowager's heart disease.In managing the harem, she, the queen mother, can retreat behind the scenes, but speaking of it, she must be the one who cares most about the health of the emperor and his descendants.How can the queen be compared to her who is the emperor's mother.

"The queen didn't come this morning?" the queen mother asked, looking at the hazy sky outside the window.

"The Empress Dowager and the other concubines were supposed to come to the Empress Dowager's place to pay her respects. However, since the eve of the eve since Liu Bingui was here—"

The queen mother thought: "Yes, it was Ai's family who told them not to come. In case some people would feel terrified when they saw Concubine Liu kneeling there." After saying that, the queen mother decided: "Princess Li, please come into the palace. In Zixiang Building in the West Palace, the Ai family met her there."

Zixiang Building is the building where the Empress Dowager watched operas on weekdays.There are two warm pavilions for watching operas underneath.Usually not open to the public.

Therefore, after Li Min entered the palace, he was led directly to Zixiang Tower instead of going to Fulu Palace.

The palace is so big that after Li Min entered the palace a few times, he only felt that what he saw and heard was just the tip of the iceberg. The roads and houses here were always as intricate as a maze.After going around a few times, the chance of getting stunned is greater.

Nanny Fang and maids dressed as Lan Yan followed behind her.

When we arrived at Zixiang Building, the Queen Mother seemed to have been waiting for her there for a while.The aunt at the front opened the bead curtain with her hands, stopped Nanny Fang and Lan Yan, and Li Min entered the Nuan Pavilion by herself.

The queen mother was sitting alone on the couch by the window, smoke was rising from a three-dragon incense burner in the corner, and a pot of hot tea was burning on a small red clay stove.The Empress Dowager is wearing a purple and luxurious court uniform, with flower hairpins on her head, coral and emeralds, and her hair hanging on her chest and wrists.

The temples are gray, but the skin is fine, like creamy white, there are more fish lines in the corners of the eyes, nothing else.

Yesterday I entered the palace with Mrs You, since it was in Fulu Palace, there were many servants around, Li Min didn't have a chance to take a good look at the Queen Mother.Now, both she and the Queen Mother have a chance to get a good look at each other.

The Empress Dowager looked at her several times, and saw that she had changed into a lotus root pink dress today, compared to yesterday's blue and green, she looked more amiable and submissive, with no makeup and no make-up, but she did not miss any decorations.There are two precious hairpins on the head, one gold and one silver, and a silver bracelet on the right wrist, which is a reward from the palace.On the soles of the shoes, two delicate flowers are exposed on the toe, like a small lotus emerging from the water.

Nodding her head, the queen mother said with satisfaction: "Yes, you are dressed like your mother-in-law."

Now that the Duke Protector's Mansion has added manpower to her, it's no wonder Li Min doesn't need it.The easiest way to make Nanny Fang wait for these people is to let them do what they are most familiar with.For a newly married daughter-in-law, what others are most curious about must be how her relationship with her husband's family is.The interpersonal relationship in Duke Huguo's mansion is simple.Mother-in-law comes first.

If she can get advice from her mother-in-law in everything, it means that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is harmonious, and others have nothing to say if they want to talk.It's easiest to start with the outfit.Fortunately, Youshi's simple dressing style also quite suits Li Min's taste.

"The concubine is fortunate to be guided by Princess Jing." Li Min said.

The queen mother smiled, picked up the teacup, and was speechless for a while.

Li Min stood by and waited quietly.

After a while, the Empress Dowager seemed to remember the words, and said in a non-deliberate tone: "Master Nineteen is lucky to have your condition improved after getting the needle yesterday."

"Master Nineteen, all blessings."

"The imperial doctor said that the nineteenth master's convulsion was due to his weak bones, what do you think?"

The point is asked.

Li Min replied: "I wonder if the Empress Dowager has observed the teeth of Lord Nineteen?"

"Teeth?" The queen mother has never heard of seeing a doctor and seeing teeth. Although she sometimes suffers from toothaches, usually as long as the patient mentions it, the doctor will not carefully examine the other person's mouth. To clear fire and detoxify the toothache.

I haven't heard Master Nineteen say that he has a toothache.Last night, the servants of Jingyang Palace were asked to confess, and none of the people from Jingyang Palace mentioned the thing about Master Nineteen's toothache.The imperial physician sent by the Imperial Hospital, Zhou Imperial Physician, never mentioned a word about Nineteen Lord's teeth.

After all, even if the nineteenth master has a toothache, does it have anything to do with the nineteenth master Jingfeng?

Master Nineteen is four or five years old, and he will tell when he has a toothache.

The queen mother's face was lost in thought, and the queen mother must have always been more thoughtful than Sun and others. She didn't listen to a word that immediately refuted Li Min, but she weighed it and asked: "Princess Li thinks that the nineteenth master's dental disease is onset?" gone?"

"Master Nineteen is not suffering from dental disease."

Why mention teeth if it's not dental disease? !The queen mother was even more confused, and looked at Li Min in a daze: "You tell the Ai family well. The Ai family you said have never heard of it."

Li Min nodded: "The concubine thinks that the convulsion of Lord Nineteen is not something that happened in a day or two, but something that happened a long time ago."

These words are exactly the same as the confessions made by those slaves in Jingyang Palace.The queen mother immediately had a reassurance in her heart.Li Min was definitely not the answer she got from listening to the confessions of those servants in her palace last night.It was Li Min's inference as a doctor after seeing Master Nineteen yesterday.

"Say it!" The queen mother said firmly, the answer lies with Li Min.

Li Min admired it in his heart, no matter Mrs. Li or the Queen Mother, people of the older generation are just different, they can hold their breath.As for Lu Shi and Zhang Shi, when they heard that what other doctors said was different, they immediately denied her to a certain extent in their hearts. How could they have thought that the truth is often in the hands of a few people.

"Go back to the Empress Dowager. It's because the nineteenth master has been ill for a long time. Maybe it's because the people around the nineteenth master hope that the nineteenth master will recover soon, and they don't want the nineteenth master to get sick again. , to keep taking medicine for the nineteenth master to prevent the nineteenth master from getting sick. It turned out to be an opportunity for others to take advantage of."

"What, what do you mean?"

"I don't know if the Empress Dowager knows that there is a medicine called cinnabar."

"Cinnabar——" The Queen Mother must have heard of this medicine, because she is getting older, and sometimes she often hears the doctor say that she is afraid that the elderly will have a stroke, and the stroke is like a convulsion in a child. , the medicine for treating convulsions in children is somewhat similar to the medicine for stroke, such as cinnabar.At the same time, cinnabar has a calming and calming effect.
