Fairy porridge is a folk recipe for treating wind cold and fever. It is boiled into porridge with a handful of glutinous rice, then added with seven pieces of scallion and seven pieces of ginger, cooked and then mixed with half a cup of vinegar. After taking the hot clothes, the patient lies on the couch covered with a quilt and sweats. Generally, he takes the clothes three or five times. After sweating thoroughly, he will recover.
Lin Yao ate a bowl of hot porridge cleanly. He only felt that his viscera were ironed a lot. Instead, he smiled at Lvzhu and said, "Lvzhu, thank you very much. “
Green bead was embarrassed to scratch her head: "it's a folk prescription handed down by the maidservant's family. I don't know if it works. Madam, lie back and sweat well..."
She hurriedly came forward to help Lin Yao lie down and carefully tucked in her quilt. Lin Yao smiled gratefully at her. She knew that this bowl of porridge would not come easily. Lvzhu must have been ridiculed by many people in the small kitchen.
She just helped her once, but Lvzhu always thought of her and served her wholeheartedly. Even though she is in a poor situation in the government, Lvzhu always sticks to her. Compared with the two, Lvzhu pays more to her than herself.
Today, Lvzhu is more like a friend with her than a servant girl serving her. Lin Yao thinks faintly that she must repay Lvzhu's kindness.
Qinfang attic.
Huo Yan leaned lazily on the brocade stool and listened to Wen xueluo playing the piano. After the song was finished, he opened his eyes and said with a smile, "it's really the sound of Xianyin Lun. It's this song that should only be heard in the sky. How many times can the world hear it“
Wen xueluo said angrily with a smile, "where is the prince praising my piano? It's obviously praising his own piano."
Huo Yan laughed and pointed to the dark brown Guqin with a missing corner: "This Fengzhu Jiaowei Qin is an ancient Qin handed down from ancient times and has been hidden in the music theory Pavilion in the palace. There are not a few musicians in the palace who are good at playing the piano, but they can't control the piano. They all say that the string music is strangely tight. But the piano can play beautiful fairy music in xueluo's hand. It can be seen that the piano also recognizes the master."
Wen xueluo's wonderful eyes were like autumn water. She got up with a smile and blessed him slightly: "then xueluo, thank you for your reward..."
Before she finished, she suddenly shook her body. Wen xueluo suddenly covered her mouth with a brocade handkerchief, and a heartbreaking cough came from her throat. Huo Yan changed his face and got up to help her. Wen xueluo said with a smile: "it doesn't matter..."
Huo Yan's eyes were suddenly tight. Wen xueluo looked along his eyes and saw that there were a few spots of scarlet on the snow-white brocade. Her face suddenly turned white and her body was soft. She almost fell to the ground. Huo Yan quickly hugged her body in his arms and said in a deep voice: "don't tell the doctor in the house, hurry up!"
Wen xueluo leaned in his arms and felt dejected. Huo Yan knew that she had always been sensitive. At this time, she must think that she would vomit blood when she was young and that her life would not last long.
"Xueluo, don't think about it..." he closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "maybe it's because of the high Qi dryness in the sky. It's OK to wait for the government doctor to see and prescribe a medicine."
Wen xueluo's face was pale and said with a bitter smile: "ah Yan... I know my own body. I've been drinking the medicine for several days, but I haven't improved at all. I'm afraid I... Can't accompany you anymore..." as soon as she said it, tears rolled down. It was obvious that she was very sad.
Huo Yan held her in his arms and felt sorry for her. He knew that xueluo was weak, but the government doctor asked for pulse diagnosis every day. He only said that xueluo was short of Qi and blood, and the old injury had not healed. He had to take good care of her for a year and a half, but he didn't say anything else. The medicine was drunk every day. Why xueluo was not good, but it seemed more serious than before?
The old doctor of the king's residence came panting, sweating profusely on his forehead. Huo Yan lay down on the couch with Wen xueluo in his arms, spread her hand flat on the collapsed edge and let the doctor feel her pulse. Wen xueluo's other hand was firmly held in his palm.
"Don't feel your pulse quickly!" Looking at the gray haired old doctor, Huo Yan frowned and urged. The people in the house were also well aware. Seeing that the LORD was angry, he specially invited the oldest old doctor. The old doctor was a imperial doctor in the palace. He grew up watching the Lord. The Lord should give him some face. If he had been another doctor in the house, I'm afraid the LORD would have kicked him long ago.
"How's the situation?" the old doctor narrowed his eyes and didn't speak for a long time. Huo Yan couldn't help asking.
"Strange, it's really strange..." the old doctor touched his gray beard and said in surprise: "madam, the pulse was no longer in danger a few days ago. Why is it weaker now than before?"
"I wrote the prescription. Did madam take it on time?"
"Take it on time every day and never miss it once." Wen xueluo whispered, her eyes full of fear: "old Sir, my disease... Can it be saved?"
The old doctor was stunned at first, then stroked his beard and said with a laugh: "madam, don't worry. It doesn't matter. When I draw up a new prescription and add a dose of body tonic, madam will take medicine on time, at least half a year, or more, she will recover in a year."
Wen xueluo's eyes fell on the brocade handkerchief stained with crimson blood. The old doctor picked up the brocade handkerchief along her eyes and looked carefully at the sun. He looked at the color of the blood on the handkerchief: "it's because the lung is too hot that the blood doesn't return to the meridian. Madam, don't be afraid. It's all congestion in the body. Vomiting is good for the body."
"That's Mr. Lao." Wen xueluo sighed a little relieved, but Huo Yan still frowned deeply. I don't know if what the old doctor said is to comfort xueluo. He will call someone to ask the old doctor again later.
"Madam, the medicine has been fried. Take it while it's hot..." Xiangmei came in with a bowl of steaming medicine. Wen xueluo gently "Hmm", but a strange look flashed on the old doctor's face.
Xiangmei gently stirred it in the medicine bowl with a silver spoon and blew it for a while. She didn't feel hot until she handed it to Wen xueluo. Wen xueluo took the medicine bowl and was about to drink, but the old doctor suddenly said, "I can't drink!"
Wen xueluo held the medicine bowl in a daze and maintained the action of putting the medicine bowl on her lips. The old doctor couldn't explain. He hurriedly took the medicine bowl from her hand and sniffed it in her nose: "this medicine is wrong!"
Huo Yan and Wen xueluo looked at each other. Huo Yan turned to the old doctor and said coldly, "what's the matter? Has someone poisoned the medicine?"
The old doctor shook his head: "no, there is no problem with this medicine, but it is not the medicine I prescribed. The prescriptions I prescribed are all herbs for warming and tonifying, but this bowl of medicine is a medicine for draining yuan and promoting blood circulation, which is just the opposite to Mrs. Wen's symptoms. If Mrs. Wen has been drinking this medicine, it is no wonder that the blood will not return to her menstruation, resulting in long-term illness and even vomiting blood“
"This girl must have taken someone else's medicine by mistake..." the old doctor touched her beard and said to Xiangmei. Xiangmei turned pale and quickly knelt at Wen xueluo's feet and sobbed in a low voice.
Huo Yan glanced coldly at Xiangmei kneeling on the ground and said in a cold voice, "come on, drag her out to the king and choose fifty boards! Drive her out of the house“
He doesn't care whether the servant girl is intentional or unintentional. If he didn't care about xueluo's mood, Huo Yan would have ordered someone to kill the servant girl directly!
But the fifty big boards are not easy. Even if a strong man receives the fifty big boards, he will have to peel off his skin if he doesn't die. What's more, he is a servant girl with thin skin and tender meat like Xiangmei?
Two strong servants came forward and dragged Xiangmei to the outside. Xiangmei was about to beg for mercy, and one of the servants had blocked her mouth. Xiangmei's frightened tears couldn't help looking like Wen xueluo. The meaning of begging for mercy in her eyes was very obvious.
Wen xueluo didn't look at her, but looked at Huo Yan. Her eyes looked like resentment and anger: "if the Lord wants to blame me, blame me. Why take my servant girl out of anger?"
Huo Yan was stunned and subconsciously replied, "don't be capricious“
Wen xueluo's eyes immediately turned red: "if the Lord is not used to me, please go and sit down with other sisters. There's no need to be unhappy here!"
Huo Yan was more and more foggy. He thought about Wen xueluo's bad health, so he had to lower his voice and said softly, "I'm for you. This girl is a stupid fool. She can even take the master's medicine wrong. She made a mistake today. If you don't punish her heavily, all the slaves and maidens around you will follow suit and don't seriously serve the master?"
Wen xueluo gently wiped the tears on the corners of her eyes with a brocade handkerchief and said with a sneer: "she made a mistake? Xiangmei has always been cautious around me. How could she bring the wrong medicine for no reason? The prince wronged my girl indiscriminately. Is it to protect someone?"
Huo Yan frowned slightly. He knew that xueluo's temper was always short-sighted. Even if the servant girl took the wrong medicine, she would cover up and forgive. He sighed gently and knew that the servant girl couldn't beat. He shook his head slightly at the two servants, who hurriedly let go of Xiangmei.
Xiangmei threw herself at Wen xueluo's feet in horror, and sobbed dimly: "madam, I will never take the wrong medicine bowl. The lid on madam's medicine bowl is different from others' medicine. I will never admit my mistake. Please take my wife's advice."
"Get up quickly." Wen xueluo helped Xiangmei: "it's no wonder that you have a large population in the house. It's normal for someone to take the wrong medicine for a while. I just hope the person who drank my medicine by mistake won't aggravate his illness."
She clearly had something to say. Huo Yan glanced at her and ordered someone to call Chen Wei and ask who was frying medicine in the pharmacy recently.
Housekeeper Chen replied nervously, "there are many people infected with wind and cold in spring, and there are many people who go to the pharmacy to get medicine. If you want a detailed answer, you have to ask carefully."
"Is there anything unusual?" Huo Yan asked with a frown.
Housekeeper Chen thought carefully. Even if there was anything unusual about the people coming and going in the pharmacy, he couldn't find it. However, the king's question reminded him of the day before yesterday and bowed to answer: "There's nothing unusual. It's just that Mrs. Lin's maid Lvzhu went to the pharmacy to get the medicine the day before yesterday. There was some conflict with the manager of the pharmacy, and the old slave turned around."
Huo Yan was slightly stunned and subconsciously blurted out: "is she ill?"
