Rebirth as Hou Menfu

Chapter 67

Qi Zhongzhou hurried to Tingfeng Courtyard, Yingxiu had already taken a clean cloth and fished out all the herbs in the soup, there was a faint smell of Chinese medicine in the room, "Fourth Uncle, I don't know much about this medicine , can you help me see if the ones here are the same as those in this recipe."

Qi Zhongzhou fiddled with the medicine with his chopsticks, and followed the prescription, "There is an extra flavor of veratrum. This medicine is mainly used for bruises. It is good for bone recovery and can also remove inflammation."

"I sent this medicine to the big kitchen and asked them to add it to the soup. It shouldn't be there."

"It can be added or not, there is no problem. Although Hao Ming is not fractured, he has not moved for a long time, and he has been standing for a long time recently. There is no conflict with the addition of this medicine." Qi Zhongzhou checked the others carefully, and there is nothing wrong with it. Yingxiu had a solemn face, "Hao Ming has been feeling unwell recently."

"After the decoction was delivered yesterday, my husband drank it, and he felt a little unwell in the afternoon." After Qi Haoming drank the decoction yesterday, he felt a little uncomfortable after a short time, so he ate all the soup in the study. After vomiting it out, although there was nothing unusual about the person afterwards, Yingxiu was also taken aback. The cats that were brought in for the test were all fine.

"Maybe I ate something that contradicted each other. This soup is fine. What did Hao Ming eat at noon yesterday?" Qi Zhongzhou divided the goats. A little too much.

"Yesterday after lunch, Xianggong went to the study, and I asked Baoqin to make tea and send it over." Yingxiu thought for a while, "There is no problem with lunch, it is the same as usual."

"What kind of tea did you make?"

"Sophora ginseng tea." Seeing Qi Zhongzhou's clear expression, Yingxiu said, "Is there something wrong with this tea?"

"There is no problem with the tea, and there is no problem with this soup. There is a problem if you drink the two together. The veratrum and ginseng cannot be eaten together. The veratrum is highly toxic. It will vomit when taken internally. It is generally used for trauma. If you want to add You can’t add so much to the soup, and eating it together will hurt your vitality.” Qi Zhongzhou picked up the prescription and looked at it again, “They should not make mistakes in the medicine you sent to the big kitchen, how could you add so much? Goose down."

Yingxiu was startled, and said slowly, "That bitter ginseng is not from home, but I specially asked Steward Zhao to bring it from outside."

Yingxiu doesn't believe that if she catches a wrong one, she can decoct the wrong medicine every time. Sophora flavescens has not been bought for a long time. It was used by Yingxiu to invigorate Qi Haoming, but I don't know who got it so quickly The news, if you know how to use this method, Qi Haoming will slowly lose his vitality.

Qi Zhongzhou quickly understood what she meant, "You and Haojun are the only ones who cook medicine in the big kitchen, and the medicines in the other yards are for health preservation."

If there is a big problem with Qi Haoming taking too much, it can be traced to the mess in the big kitchen, and it was misplaced for a while, and it was not intentional to add this veratrum, Yingxiu squinted at the pile of medicine Slag, "Qingbi, ask Ping'er to find out who is in charge of cooking medicine in the big kitchen these days."

Yingxiu wrapped up the medicine dregs and sent Qi Zhongzhou out, "I'm sorry, Fourth Uncle is here, please don't mention this matter to Father, so that he won't worry."

Ping'er came back soon, and the maid who cooks medicine is just an ordinary maid in the big kitchen, "I asked the woman in the kitchen, and she said that the maid who cooks medicine puts a medicine pot first and then puts another one. , not at the same time."

"Then she stayed by the side all the time and didn't leave?"

"That's not true. She will come over to take a look when it's almost time. She won't just stay there." After listening to Ping'er's words, Yingxiu nodded, then turned her head and said to Qingbi, "Go and tell Steward Zhao, he Buying things in our yard, who is in charge by your side."

After dinner, Yingxiu put the two wild ginseng sent by Aunt Ge in front of Qi Haoming, "It's really good to use a knife to kill someone."

After Qingbi went to look for Butler Zhao, Yingxiu learned that when Butler Zhao went to buy things for Tingfeng Courtyard, there were only two stewards with him, and one of the stewards was the mother-in-law of Nanyang Hou Mansion. Coincidentally, that The mother-in-law's daughter-in-law works in the second bedroom, and the youngest daughter works in Jinzhuyuan.

Jinzhu Courtyard is Qi Haosheng's courtyard, Zhuge Yuxin and many other concubines live in this courtyard, the woman's youngest daughter works in Jinzhu Courtyard, after Zhuge Yutong came, she was assigned to serve her .

"I heard from the big kitchen that there are quite a lot of frying in Jinzhuyuan these days." It seems that raising a few cats is because Yingxiu underestimated their methods, and the poisoning is too ostentatious, and now Qi Haoming is dead Yes, and there is nothing wrong with that medicine, it's just that I took it wrong.

Qi Haojun had been injured for many days, if he really pursued it, he would not have gone to Jinzhuyuan, Qi Haoming narrowed his eyes slightly, a flash of hostility flashed in his eyes, Yingxiu reached out and patted his shoulder lightly, The tone was very slow, "Then let Aunt Ge make more supplements."

Three days later, Zhuge Yuxin was choosing fabrics for several children in the house. Yan Zhi hurried in and whispered a few words in her ear. Zhuge Yuxin's expression changed, he put down the brocade cloth in his hand, and followed her quickly out of the house.

A low cry came from Aunt Ge's room. Zhuge Yuxin pushed the door open and entered. A scent came out, mixed with a smell of medicine. Aunt Ge leaned on the bed, her arms and face were covered with blisters, red and swollen. one slice.

Yan Zhi stopped Zhuge Yuxin, "Miss, the doctor has been invited, you can wait here for a while." Zhuge Yuxin took back his steps, sat in the outer hall and waited.

After the doctor came, the result of the diagnosis was that he had been poisoned by fire, and the backlog of fire in the body forced out bubbles all over his body.

Zhuge Yutong had many blisters like red bumps on his face, which were itchy but could not be scratched randomly. Once they were broken, the thick water inside would flow out, and it would easily itch when it touched other skins.

"Didn't you suffer from the wind and cold, how could you make it too much!" Zhuge Yuxin couldn't bear to look at it, his face was so good that he couldn't see it now, so he called Aunt Ge's servant girl and said sharply.

"My aunt suffered from the wind and cold. After taking the medicine, she was still a little weak, so she wanted to eat some tonics." The maid immediately knelt on the ground, and Aunt Ge went to the big kitchen to cook all the tonics by herself. Fang Zi It was also given by Aunt Ge herself, so how could she come up with this problem.

Just after finishing speaking, there was a scream from inside the room. Aunt Ge covered her nose with a handkerchief, and her fingers were full of blood.

The doctor went in and looked at it for a while, and came out in a cold sweat, "Mrs. Shizi, Aunt Ge is over-supplemented with ginseng." Zhuge Yuxin looked at the maid who went in and handed her a towel to wipe her face, and sneered. Overfilled?

"Will she hurt her body like this, will it leave scars?"

"As long as you get rid of the fire, those on your body will naturally fade away. If you pay attention to eating, you won't leave scars. This body needs to be nourished. The fire poison is still strong. It is not suitable to have a body at this time." Zhuge Yuxin frowned, "How long will it take?"

"You can raise them for one to two months."

Zhuge Yuxin asked Yanzhi to follow the doctor to prescribe prescriptions and get medicines, while he stood at the door and looked into the room, "You heard what the doctor said, I will keep the son from coming to your yard for more than a month, you take good care of it." When the body is healthy, taking so many tonics for a little wind and cold, there is no sense at all."

Zhuge Yutong had just wiped the blood, and when he heard what Zhuge Yuxin said, he looked up and lowered his head. When his nose became hot, the nosebleed that had just stopped gushed out again. Zhuge Yutong took the cotton and stuffed it into his nose. Sai begged Zhuge Yuxin, "Sister, I haven't eaten so much ginseng, someone must be harming me."

"Harring you? I'm making you overdo it and you can't have a body for a while, right?" Zhuge Yuxin's eyes flashed a look of disgust. Even she couldn't bear to look at her like this. She absolutely couldn't let the son come over during this time. She was so scared that she would still be here in the future. How could there be a chance to be favored again.

"Even if someone wants to harm you, it's because of your usual ostentatious style. Take advantage of these days and reflect on yourself. If there is no news for a long time, I don't think your father will be satisfied." Seeing a trace of hesitation on her face, Zhuge Yuxin reminded road.

There was a burst of itching on her face, and there were many on her arms and neck. Zhuge Yutong watched her leave, and hated her even more, and said to the maid beside him, "Where are the dregs of the tonic, go and give it to me." bring here!"

The maid hurriedly went to the backyard to look for the dumped medicine dregs, but unexpectedly, all of them were gone, but within a day, the medicine dregs and the poured jar were gone.

"How could it disappear so quickly?" Zhuge Yutong stretched out his hand to let the servant girl apply the ointment, his thoughts turned very quickly...

In Tingfeng courtyard, Yingxiu looked at the burning things in the pottery pots in the courtyard, and there was a unique smell of ginseng around. Two high-quality wild ginseng were added several times. The prescription that Uncle got, this time, should be enough tonic.

Holding the piano, she came to help Yingxiu up, walked around the yard twice before returning to the house, the weather was getting hot, and it was another year of summer in a blink of an eye, Qingbi handed the letter from Pingyang Palace to Yingxiu, " It's a shame that girl still remembers me and sent so many peaches here."

"That's why Miss Chen is kind to Miss Chen, so Miss Chen remembers you, Miss Chen." Qingbi took the basket to the small kitchen, washed some for her to eat, "I heard that Miss Chen is also engaged."

"That's right, that little girl was chosen by the young prince of the Ruyang Palace." Yingxiu raised the letter in Yang's hand, in which Chen Baolin wrote that she was given a marriage. But she has already elevated her status as a concubine.

"Go prepare a generous gift and send it over. Congratulations to that girl first. I can't make it through the invitation, but she can't make it through." Yingxiu asked Qingbi to get the pen and ink, and directly wrote the post along with the generous gift. After going to Pingyang Palace, after a few days, the carriage from Pingyang Palace arrived at Nanyang Houfu.

I haven't seen Chen Baolin for two years, she has become thinner and more beautiful, but her cheeks are still cute, "I'm getting married soon, so what should I do if I'm still so childish." Yingxiu pulled Chen Baolin and sighed, while Yan's mother smiled and said, "Miss, you can't talk about others. I was not the same at the beginning."

"Nurse is trying to tear me down." Yingxiu smiled happily, admitting that she was not much different from Chen Baolin before she got married, "Baolin, your future husband is not simple at all."

"Sister, stop laughing at me." Chen Baolin blushed, she didn't know that an imperial decree came down, it was for her to marry, and she only met that little Prince Su once.

"Since the side concubine was bestowed first, I think the main concubine will have to wait for this year's draft. You are still young. If you want to marry in early, you will have to wait until you are old enough to get married. Don't worry." As the concubine, Chen Baolin will also marry into the Ruyang Palace at that time, but she has not yet arrived, so she should wait until she is 15 years old before performing the ceremony of Duke Zhou.

For Chen Baolin's temperament, it may not be a bad thing to be able to get acquainted with the environment first. If she is asked to fight first, it will be difficult for her.

"Sister, everyone said don't mention this." Chen Baolin grabbed the hem of her clothes and twisted her ears until her ears turned red. "I originally invited sister Shuyao to come with me today, but Mrs. Shao didn't agree."

"Silly girl, you are booked now, who dares to underestimate you in Pingyang Palace, you will come out as soon as you want, and Shuyao will be sent to the palace, of course not." Yingxiu originally thought that the Shao family would She intends to marry Qiao's family and marry Shao Shuyao to cousin Jinze, but they didn't expect that they wanted to send their daughter to the palace. With Shao Shuyao's temper, how could she live happily in the palace.

"Then don't we meet less often in the future?"

"If Shuyao is also given a marriage, then she won't stay in the palace." Yingxiu scratched her nose, "What are you thinking, she won't be given a marriage to Su Xiaowang, see Look at what you've put on." Yingxiu poked her forehead lightly and cursed with a smile.

Confused, Chen Baolin secretly stuck out her tongue. The identity of the Shao family is not enough, but the emperor is already old, and no amount of additions in the harem will be able to do what he wants. If it is a gift of marriage, it may not be an opportunity...
