Chapter 83 Reading

 Shu Shu felt that she should still go to Jingyang Palace and look for ancient medical books to see if she could find a prescription.

There is no air conditioning now, so summer in the Forbidden City is really difficult.

The brick and wood buildings absorb heat and there is little vegetation, making the palace look like a big steamer.

If I can find the recipe for "Huoxiang Zhengqi Water" and prepare it, the future will not be as dangerous as yesterday.

Seeing Brother Jiu turning over and sitting up, with his lips chapped and peeling, Shu Shu stood up, poured a glass of cold water and handed it to him: "I feel uncomfortable, but I don't have any reaction..."

Brother Jiu took the tea cup and drank it in large gulps. He was still confused: "It's just that I've been running around a lot these past two days and I've been exposed to the sun a bit. I feel a little bored and a little dry..." When he said this, he hesitated: "Master, what's this?

Heat stroke?”

Shu Shu nodded: "It's scary... The emperor and the empress were both alarmed..."

Ninth elder brother was also sarcastic.

In less than half a month, Ama's mother was alarmed twice, and he felt uneasy.

"The emperor said that you should take good care of yourself, and you don't have to go to the study room for the time being..."

When Shu Shu said this, he hesitated for a moment and swallowed his suspicions about Brother Eleven and Suo'etu.

The fool in front of me has really young shoulders and cannot bear the truth and hatred.

Ninth Prince Aijie, who has been sleeping for most of the day and is sweating over and over again, has already become extremely uncomfortable.

Shu Shu was afraid of him and didn't dare to let him take a bath on an empty stomach, so she made him drink a bowl of mung bean paste.

After Brother Jiu finished taking a bath, Shu Shu handed over the shirt he had sewn yesterday: "If you don't go out, I will wear this..."

"Did you sew it?"

Brother Jiu took it and opened it, revealing his doubts: "What is this? It looks like a waistcoat, but it's not double-breasted..."

"The vest is worn directly over the head!"

Seeing that he couldn't find the collar, Shu Shu stepped forward to help and put it on for him.

Although the hurdle vest is cooler, nowadays it is important not to expose the body, so Shu Shu's style is actually more like the T-shirt of later generations.

The neckline is wider, the sleeves are half-sleeved, and it wears loosely on the body.

Brother Jiu was wearing it and looked at the half of his exposed arm: "This is fine for wearing in the house, but not good for wearing outside..."

Shu Shu also handed over the matching pants, which were loose and loose three-quarter pants. They were double-layered, so there was no need to worry about being transparent.

Brother Jiu put it on and looked down: "The style is weird, but it's really cool..."

Xiaotang brought breakfast, including bean porridge, egg pudding, pork shreds stir-fried with coriander, dried shrimps mixed with spinach, watermelon juice, and two cages of milk rolls.

They are all used to supplement potassium after heatstroke.

Traditional Chinese medicine has been developed for thousands of years, and there are many established prescriptions for post-heat stroke treatment.

However, with Brother Jiu's body, he would probably lose his appetite if he was given medicine three times a day.

Therefore, after discussing with Imperial Physician Yin, Shu Shu decided to take dietary supplements and medicinal supplements at the same time.

Eat three meals a day as usual and drink medicine after dinner.

The food supplement recipe given by Taiyuan Hospital is shredded pork, coriander and dried shrimps and spinach.

Shu Shu had never suffered from heatstroke in her previous life, but she had gone through military training and had seen other people suffer from heatstroke, so she knew that she needed potassium and sodium supplements after heatstroke.

I added bean porridge, milk pudding, milk rolls and watermelon juice.

Brother Ninth was very hungry, but his appetite was limited, so he drank a glass of watermelon juice, ate a bowl of pudding, and a few chopsticks of cold dishes.

Not long after he put down his chopsticks, Brother Jiu's head began to hurt again, and his vision began to blur.

There was fear on his face, and he held Shu Shu's hand, his face full of pain: "Tell me the truth, what did the imperial doctor say? Is... I'm going to die? I feel uncomfortable..."

Not only did I feel dizzy, but I also felt weak all over and had chest tightness and shortness of breath.

Shu Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This is the sequela of summer heat. It has to take some time to recover...otherwise, the disease comes like a mountain, and the disease goes away like a thread..."

Brother Jiu groaned and said: "Then you can massage my head again, I have a headache..."

Shu Shu sat next to him, stretched out her hand to gently rub his temples, and called Xiao Chun in: "Go and get a clean handkerchief, wrap it with ice cubes and bring it over... Also ask the kitchen to bring mung bean soup..."

After a while, both were delivered.

Shu Shu coaxed Brother Jiu to drink a bowl of mung bean soup, then asked him to lie down on his back, and put a handkerchief wrapped in ice cubes on his forehead.

Brother Jiu didn't feel anything at first, but after a while he opened his eyes and was surprised: "It doesn't seem to hurt as much as before... What's going on? What's the purpose of this ice cube?" As he spoke, he touched the cloth on his forehead.

, eyes shining.

"What does this mean? Did you read it in some book?"

How did Shu Shu answer?

The instructor used it this way in my previous life, so of course I can't talk about it.

She considered it for a moment and said: "I read it in a miscellaneous book and said that the sequelae of heat, such as my headache and dizziness, can be relieved by cooling down and drinking water..."

Brother Jiu felt very comfortable. He sat up suddenly, widened his eyes, looked down at himself, and realized something was wrong: "Yesterday... the clothes you changed for me..."

Naturally, Shu Shu would not describe his embarrassment after fainting. He only chuckled and said, "If it's not me, who else would I want to replace him?"

Fortunately, Brother Jiu was "fragmented". If he thought of the scene at that time, he would vomit all over himself. With his face-conscious temperament, he would probably have to hide and not dare to see anyone.

Brother Jiu glanced at her and hummed: "After these two days, I will help you change it..."

Saying this, he couldn't help but look at Shu Shu.

A regular linen shirt with a bright pink gauze coat on the outside. It doesn't look too heavy, but it's not too cool either.

"You made cool clothes for me, why didn't you prepare them yourself?"

Brother Ninth was not happy.

"No one dares to say anything if I wear this, but it will become news if I wear this..."

Shu Shu felt helpless.

This is the inconvenience of living in a palace. Everything is in the eyes and mouths of others.

Shu Shu's mind thought of the same thing as Qi Xi.

There is a rift with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and even if no one dares to openly make things difficult at the moment, who knows when it will get stuck, and you can't make trouble with them again.

And the Suo'etu...

It was just a coincidence that the previous "rumors" appeared just after the ninth elder brother met the former person of the eleventh elder brother.

Suo'etu was the minister in charge of the bodyguard and lived in the palace, right under his nose.

"Master, can you think of a way to leave the palace and live..."

Shu Shu hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

"Then we have to wait for Khan Ama to be knighted... Didn't you say before that Khan Ama would be crowned later than Lao Shi's? Why did you mention this again?"

Brother Ninth was puzzled.

"This is not because I have offended the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but I am not at ease... If I don't seal it, I will not seal it. I will live outside first, it is more spacious than in the palace... I won't have such a bitter summer..."

Shu Shu weighed the pros and cons and still felt that it was better outside.

Even if this palace is a big inn, even if they are the prince and Fujin, they are still guests. It depends on the owner's face and the stewards on the next floor.

Perhaps we can take advantage of Ninth Prince's "recuperation" to raise the issue of proposing to the palace.

Brother Ninth felt uncomfortable: "If you move out, how will you support your family? If you don't get a title, you won't have money or food. The prince's monthly salary is only fifty taels of silver a month..."

Shu Shu looked at Brother Ninth and wanted to say proudly, "I'll support you." However, he also knew that it was traditional for men to be the breadwinners of the family, so he had to comfort him and said: "I am so smart, I will naturally be able to earn enough money for the family... Besides, I won't be able to support the family."

No matter how big the expense is, even if I go out, I am still a prince, and I am also a Fujin, so I can still go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to withdraw any supplies..."

If you were free, who would be happy to be trapped in a palace?

Brother Ninth's eyes sparkled: "That's right, if we don't get a title, all our supplies will come from the palace, and the rest will just be a small amount of money..."

Thinking of the carefree life outside the palace, Ninth Brother felt that his chest was no longer tight and his head ached no more: "This needs to be done early... Fifth Brother and his family spent two or three years selecting the site and building their mansion...

"

Shu Shu smiled and said nothing.

Because she knew that the ninth elder brother was overthinking, and with the fifth elder brother in front of him, the ninth elder brother was destined not to be given a high status.

Among the elder brothers who are now ennobled, although only the eldest elder brother and the third elder brother are the princes of Doro County, the other princes are Baylor.

But this is the first seal.

According to the example of Emperor Shizu and several princes, they were all granted the title of prince.

Therefore, even though the mansion is under the regulations of Baylor House, there is room for expansion, so building it is naturally time-consuming.

By the time we get to Ninth Brother, the mansion will not be large in area, and the construction time will not be long.

Brother Jiu fell into longing, and for some reason he thought of Lao Shi. He sighed and said helplessly: "We can't just think about ourselves, we also have to think about Lao Shi... If we leave him alone, I'm afraid that he will come back again."

Crying to me..."

Shu Shu smiled and nodded, naturally having no objection.

In the past half month since entering the palace, apart from the ninth elder brother, the one Shu Shu had the most contact with was the tenth elder brother.

He is truly a showman.

Although he looks reckless, he is actually much smarter than Brother Jiu.

Thinking of the eighth elder brother next door, Shu Shu couldn't help but feel entangled and looked at the ninth elder brother.

As expected, Brother Ninth's eyes were a little wandering, and he did not dare to look directly into Shu Shu's eyes. After a while, he finally said in a haphazard voice: "I went to Beixinqiao last year. There are many government offices there, so it's easy to plot..."

Shu Shu smiled and said nothing.

Beixinqiao?

Further north is the location of the famous Yonghe Temple in later generations. Naturally, it is not regulated by later Yonghe Temple, but Sibeile Mansion, which was renovated two years ago.

I heard that the Eight Beile Mansion is adjacent to the Four Beile Mansion.

Shu Shu felt that the roots of her teeth were itching again.

After Brother Jiu finished speaking, his head drooped.

He couldn't help but feel a little confused.

It had been planned long ago that in the future the house would be opened next to myna, and the brothers would be as close to each other as they are now.

But since when did it become different?

Getting married yourself?

Or earlier, myna’s wedding?!

Even if their brothers knew that the previous "rumors" were false, could they really be "dissolved without a trace"?

And my wife and Bafujin really don’t get along with each other.

At the very beginning, Brother Jiu thought it was his wife who wouldn't give in, but now he has no such idea.

They are both Prince Fujin, why should my wife give him one?

His thoughts were all on his face, and when Shu Shu saw it, he didn't say much.

In the final analysis, the arrangements for the prince's residence still had to be made by Kangxi.

Shu Shu is also thinking about how to "reconcile" with the Eight Fortune Jins...
