Chapter 83 Medicine
Lu Simo comforted Mrs. Tao and said, "Mom, don't think so much. How do you know that it will be better for my sister to marry her cousin than to enter the palace? Although we can't see my sister now, if she is favored, maybe she will be favored.
You will be promoted to the concubine position in less than two years. If you miss your sister by then, won't you be able to see your sister when you enter the palace on the 15th day of the lunar month?"
Mrs. Tao shook her head: "How can it be that easy? I don't expect your sister to be promoted to concubine or anything. I just hope that your sister can stay safe and sound in the palace."
"Mom, don't worry. My sister has been smart since she was a child. She will definitely be safe and sound in the palace." Lu Simo said, changing the subject and saying, "Now I hear that I sympathize with the girl who is engaged to my cousin."
Not only does the person who wants to marry like other women in his heart, but he is not yet the daughter-in-law that his future mother-in-law likes, and there is also a sister-in-law who is also not a fuel-efficient person, I am afraid that life will be difficult in the future.
Lu Simo always felt that his uncle did something wrong in this matter, but after thinking about it, he felt that his uncle had no other choice but to do this. Besides, his cousin would get married sooner or later, so he would not marry this girl.
He will also marry other girls, and there will always be one girl who has to face this situation.
For Lu Wanning, the days of celebrating the New Year in the palace were no different from usual. Apart from saying hello every day, he spent time in his palace.
On the early morning of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Wanning had just returned to Linglong Pavilion after paying her respects to the queen, when she came in with a large bag of things in red paper.
"Hong Jian has met Lu Meiren."
"Qingzhi, help Miss Hong Jian up quickly." Lu Wanning sat on the couch and glanced at the large bag of pungent medicinal smell in Hong Jian's hand, and said with a smile: "What is Miss Hong Jian carrying?"
?”
"Returning to Lu Meiren, the imperial concubine asked the slave to deliver this to Lu Meiren." Hong Jian handed the medicine bag to Qingzhi and said: "The imperial concubine specially asked for this medicine from a miracle doctor outside the palace.
The prescription says that as long as you, Miss Lu, drink this medicine for three days before going to bed every time, you will definitely be pregnant within three months."
"This..." Lu Wanning hesitated, "Is this medicine reliable? Didn't Dr. Liu say before that there is no such medicine? And I have never heard of such a miraculous medicine before."
Hong Jian smiled and said: "Don't worry, Miss Lu. The reason why Dr. Liu said that before was because he had never seen this prescription, so he thought there was no such medicine in the world. But when the imperial concubine brought the prescription to him, he
Said this prescription is indeed effective."
"This prescription is a magical recipe that is not passed down from the family of a miracle doctor. Since even Dr. Liu doesn't know about it, it's normal that you, Miss Lu, have never heard of it."
In fact, when Imperial Physician Liu saw the prescription, he first said: "This prescription does not seem to be very appropriate, and it may not be able to make the imperial concubine fulfill her wish."
However, seeing that the imperial concubine looked very confident in the prescription, Dr. Liu changed his mind and said: "If the imperial concubine is really anxious, there is no harm in letting Lu Meiren give it a try. There are many people in the world who are more skilled in medicine than me.
Maybe it’s because of my poor medical skills that I can’t understand the subtleties of this prescription.”
But Hong Jian would not tell Lu Wanning in this case.
After hearing what Hong Jian said, Lu Wanning smiled and said, "Since it is a prescription that the imperial concubine kindly found, it doesn't hurt for me to give it a try."
Hong Jian nodded and said: "The imperial concubine has really spent a lot of energy to find this. Lu Meiren must not let down the imperial concubine's wishes. You must remember to drink the medicine on time."
Lu Wanning said: "Of course, I also want to be pregnant with the emperor's heir. If there is such a medicine, I have to give it a try."
Hong Jian would not doubt Lu Wanning's sincerity.
After returning to Zhaoyang Palace, he reported the truth to the imperial concubine.
After hearing this, the imperial concubine was silent for a while and then said: "I hope this medicine is really effective."
In Linglong Pavilion, Qingzhi looked at the medicine bag in front of her and asked Lu Wanning: "Master, this medicine?"
Lu Wanning smiled, grabbed the medicine bag on the table, and threw it all into the brazier in front of her.
A stifling smoke came out, which made Lu Wanning and Qingzhi treat their coughs, but soon the medicine pack in the basin caught fire with a bang.
After the fire, only a pile of black ashes remained.
Qingzhi looked at the pile of black ash in the basin and asked Lu Sunning, "Master, don't you believe that this medicine can make people pregnant?"
Lu Wanning looked at the ash flying in the air and said, "No matter whether this medicine is really useful or not, I will not drink it."
Qingzhi wanted to ask something else, but seeing that Lu Wanning had already picked up the book at hand and had no intention of continuing, she wisely shut her mouth.
On the evening of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the palace prepared a lantern festival. Many palace lanterns were hung in the imperial garden. All the concubines in the palace could go and see them. Lu Wanning also went to see them. The lanterns in the palace were all made by the Office of Construction.
Made by skilled craftsmen, each one is very beautiful and exquisite.
Lu Wanning took Qingzhi and Qingdai to watch and wait for a while, then she felt her feet were a little tired and wanted to find a place to sit and continue watching later.
So, she took Qingzhi and Qingdai to a pavilion not far away. When she approached the pavilion, she saw the prince standing in front of An Bin and talking not far from the pavilion.
Although it was night, there were so many lanterns hanging around, which clearly illuminated the expressions on the faces of An Bin and the Prince.
Concubine An looked at the prince with an expression of doting and helplessness, while the prince looked at Concubine An with a very close expression.
Lu Wanning listened carefully to the conversation between the two, and heard the prince saying to An Bin: "The chestnut cake made by Empress An Bi is really the most delicious chestnut cake I have ever tasted. I am still worried about how much An Bi loves me."
It’s been a long time since I’ve had chestnut cake.”
An Bin smiled with a gentle look on her face and said: "If His Highness the Crown Prince likes it, I will find an opportunity to cook it for His Highness the Crown Prince to eat. However, Your Highness the Crown Prince must not let the Queen know about it, otherwise the Queen will be angry again."
The prince nodded and said: "Don't worry, Concubine An, I will definitely not let the queen know."
After saying that, the prince said with an aggrieved look: "Empress An, tell me why the queen has become like this. She clearly liked me the most in the past, but now she only forces me to study. She doesn't care at all."
She doesn’t care about my life or death, do you think she doesn’t love me anymore?”
An Bin smiled and shook her head, "Your Highness, you have misunderstood the Queen. You are the Queen's only son and the Queen's future support. How could the Queen not love you and not love you? She forced you to study.
