Queen Of Medicine

In the afternoon, Zhuo Xi still went to sanxiangfang in the carriage of Zhu Lun, discussed the Empress Dowager's pulse with Dr. Hong Quan, carefully understood the Empress Dowager's background, considered a medicated diet prescription and gave it to Ke min, and used the equipment and raw materials in the health hall to take some pills according to the idea last night, which were also given to Ke min. Finally, he returned to Wu's house the same way.

When he returned to the Wu family, Liu still sent people to send a stack of worship stickers and gift lists. Zhuo Xizhao turned them over. Few people knew him, but he still asked people to send them back to Liu's hand, and entrusted Liu to help receive visitors. All the gifts were sent into the public warehouse. Until this time, she felt that the marriage had a little sense of reality, and really began to feel the complex human relations of high-ranking families. She has no experience in these things, but fortunately, few of these people know each other. She just needs to hand them over to Liu. Liu Shi asked someone to send it to her for a look, but also respected her and gave her a number in her heart.

But today she received a special famous post - Luo Yuan Xiaojun Ji. When she saw it, she quickly picked up her pen and posted it back to her. She made an appointment to meet the next day.

When Luoyuan Xiaojun Ji came, huhuhuzha sent a pile of congratulatory gifts. It took less than half an hour to move the box alone. Zhuo Xi took the gift list in her hand and felt very heavy. She said with a stiff smile to Xiaojun Ji, who was still directing his servants to move things, "Xiaojun Ji, are you going to break our Wu family treasury?"

Luo Yuan smiled and took her hand and said, "sister Zhuo Xi, I fell in love with you at first sight. You saved my life. Such a great opportunity to repay kindness is in front of me. I can't do it if I don't seize it! "

Zhuo Xi said honestly, "after all, you saved you last time because you suffered for me. How dare I pretend to be kind? It's my great face for Xiaojun Ji to come and have a wedding wine on the wedding day. How can I afford such a heavy gift? "

Luo Yuan said with a smile, "you will be my sister-in-law in the future. I will come for the wedding wine naturally. As for the gift, are you afraid you won't have a chance to return it in the future? "

Zhuo Xi chuckled and joked, "then I have to study the value of this gift list to avoid making jokes in the future."

Luo Yuan laughed, "you will be Mrs. Hou in the future. If you become a cousin's home, don't be as stingy as him!"

"Eh? Is your cousin usually stingy? " Why doesn't she know?

Luo Yuan walked to the inner room with Zhuo Xi and said with a slight smile, "he is stingy. When he paid new year's greetings to him last year, he took a fancy to a white jade on his waist and asked him to give it to me. He won't give it to me..."

The news of Luo Yuan's Xiaojun Ji's visit to Zhuo Xi spread all over the honor and honor circles in Kyoto overnight. Liu was surprised to find that the grade of his wife has been greatly improved from the second day, which made her and Mrs. Tai feel very decent. In the process of greeting and talking with the ladies, Liu suddenly had some expectations for his daughter's marriage. Bow your head to marry a daughter-in-law and raise your head to marry a daughter. The Wu family recently moved to Kyoto. They didn't have time to gain a firm foothold in Kyoto. Apart from a few colleagues and wives who make friends with their masters on weekdays, where did they get to know so many ladies of the noble family? However, this marriage is different. The Wu family has a Hou lady, and her first mother can slowly integrate into this noble circle. At least there is a lot of room for choice, not to mention climbing up the king's relatives and relatives. In the future, the master may walk towards the hall more smoothly. What this common woman can bring to the Wu family is not only glory and wealth, but also the future and aftershade of the family. She could not help but rejoice that she had ruthlessly removed aunt Zhou and her careless daughter. If not, how can the Wu family be today?

However, she frowned again at the thought of her daughter's marriage. Let's go over the difficult pass in front of us first. I don't know what will happen on March 13?

Soon it was March 13. In the past few days, people from the government came to join the Wu family and discussed the Nagina levy and other relevant details. Because the Emperor gave the marriage, even the application period was exempted. Therefore, the marriage of the two families basically came to an end in the part that both sides need to discuss and jointly prepare, and the rest is to prepare separately. There are only more than ten days left from March 26, so early in the morning of March 13, someone in the palace reported that they would bring the bride price when they choose auspicious times today.

Early in the morning, Liu took the maid, mother-in-law and son-in-law to stand in a full courtyard, waiting to receive the bride price from the inner house.

A whole hundred and twenty-four dowries were moved from the palace to the Wu family.

The humble little Wu family, who had only two houses in zhongjiufang, suddenly became the center of the neighborhood's neighbors, sighing and admiring one after another. Not only Liu, who was checking the gift list, but even Wu Zhilian, who was reserved in his study, couldn't help listening to these praises. He couldn't help but be distracted and couldn't read the book in his hand any more. Like Liu, Zhuo Xi didn't feel the impact of his marriage on the Wu family for the first time, nor did he seriously think about the lasting changes that might happen in the future. Therefore, he was not only happy to see his success and Yu Youyan, but also encouraged Liu Shi to tend to the courtiers' families who made friends with the Duke of Guang'an when drawing up the banquet list. This bit by bit can be capital after saving.

When the eunuch who sang the gift list finally reported the gift list, Liu smiled and asked him and a group of eunuch maids to take a rest in the side room, drink tea and eat snacks.

Liu smiled and let people watch the 124 wedding gifts. He quickly invited the Empress Dowager to distribute the wedding cakes specially given by the wedding gifts to everyone, even the eunuch and maid in waiting in the ear room.

At the moment of application for time, a group of eunuchs and maids who had had a good rest went out of the Wu family and returned to the palace with the red seal quietly stuffed by Liu.

The next day, all the eunuchs and maids in the palace had abdominal pain and fever. The imperial medical department originally disdained to see eunuchs and maids, but some Palace officials reported that more than 10 people were ill. The imperial medical department began to pay attention to it because it suspected that it was an epidemic. When I asked, I found out that these people came back to the palace after sending the bride price to the Wu family the day before yesterday. The imperial medical department didn't dare to hide it. It reported to the queen sun Yao overnight.

Sun Yao sent Mammy to Wu's house for questioning. Unexpectedly, when mammy came to the Wu family, she found that all the members of the Wu family were ill in bed. When she asked, she knew that she had eaten something bad yesterday. It was estimated that she would have a rest for two days.

Mammy went back to the palace and told the queen the truth. There were only a few palace maids and eunuchs. Sun Yaoming put the matter aside and stopped asking about it. What she needs to pay attention to now is the palace election in two days. The time of seeing each other was fixed in February, but the wedding date given by the king was temporarily fixed. Although these two events were crowded together, the good thing is that the time is staggered, that is, the family seems busy.

On the day of seeing each other, the neifu newspaper said that a daughter of the Liang family in Hedong fell into the river a few days ago and was unable to come because she had scraped two skins on her face; Then the two daughters of the Wu family had a bad stomach and were ill in bed a few days ago. Sun yaocai remembered the condition of the more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs, and asked someone about the situation. He said that they had been suffering from diarrhea and fever for many days. Although they took the medicine sent by the Wu family, their condition was alleviated, they were still weak and haggard. After thinking about it, she had to let people take a look at Wu's house so as not to miss the wedding date.

It took a whole day to choose seven women and two daughters-in-law. She and Mrs. Qin were very tired. Back to Bai'an palace, the mammy who came back from the Wu family said that the Wu family had just found out the source of the poison. It turned out that the bean paste stuffing contained in the wedding cake that day collided with the tea they drank that day, which led to diarrhea and fever. Now they are taking the antidote and slowly recover. It doesn't seem to miss the big event on the wedding day. She also breathed a sigh of relief and began to seriously think about the great event on March 20.

After seeing the mammy from the palace leave with satisfaction, Liu turned and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. The soldiers made dangerous moves. She made a dangerous move with the lives of the whole family. Naturally, it was cold sweat.

She remembered her conversation with zhuoxi that day.

On that day, Zhuo Xi had just left the old lady's house, and Liu's back foot followed.

Zhuo Xi knew what she was going to ask.

Not only did the Wu family spend money on their wedding, but also Liu did his best. It's rare for Liu to ask her for help in this matter. She naturally wanted to give advice. She whispered, "mother, are you determined not to let the third sister enter the palace?"

Liu nodded. "I've thought about it. Jiao'er has been spoiled by me since childhood. She has a temper that is difficult to control. She's afraid it's difficult to handle even if she doesn't mention the inner courtyard of the palace. I don't hold much hope for her marriage, but it's OK to have a family of ordinary officials with a rich family background and be able to marry husband and wife. "

Zhuo Xi couldn't say anything about the marriage, so she said, "mother, what day is the third sister going to the palace to see each other?"

Liu's face was gloomy. "March 16, that is, after the seventh."

Zhuo Xi pondered, "mother, on March 13, you let the third sister and the fifth sister come to my house. I'll treat them to good scented tea. "

Liu Shi knew that she had made up her mind and smiled.

"However, this may involve the whole inner yard. Mother, you should be prepared first. Especially the old lady is old and weak, please take good care of the old lady's yard."

Liu was suspicious, "what do you mean..."

Zhuo Xi whispered, "if the two sisters of the Wu family are both ill in bed on the day they enter the palace, it's easy to arouse suspicion, but what if the whole family falls ill?"

Liu suddenly, first a joy, "so no one can be picky." Then he was surprised, "but in this way, will people suspect what epidemic it is?"

"Naturally, it won't be an epidemic, it's just food poisoning."

"Poisoning?" Liu Shi was surprised again.

"Don't worry, mother. Xiao liu'er has his own arrangements. But on the father's side and the eldest brother's side, please explain to them that you should not be too frightened. "

Liu nodded and looked at her far-reaching. It's like risking the lives of the whole Wu family. Is it too risky?

Zhuo Xi chuckled, "mother, I'm getting married soon. The more peaceful the house is, the better." If she really has a bad heart, it is really too risky, and she can understand it.

At that time, Liu suddenly woke up. Yes, she was about to get married. How could she take a drastic salary? What's more, this marriage has the intervention of the internal government, and nacai's collection of auspicious things should be carried out quickly. How can he linger on the sick bed for a long time? It should be all right. She was relieved to think so.

But these two days, she saw that the whole family was seriously ill. Although she had taken care of Wu Xing and arranged people to take care of the compound, she was afraid that in case the whole Wu family would be destroyed, and she was afraid that she would secretly move her hands and feet and be perceived by the people in the palace to cause great disasters. She was always worried. Until the mammy in the palace walked away without exception and knew that the Wu family might have passed this level, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, the crying Wu Jiao really gave her a headache
