"Does that mean a premature birth?" As soon as Zhichun finished speaking, Song Zihua exclaimed, "Wei Chen understands, the empress is saying... Concubine Yu took the risk of inducing labor in order to avoid the risk of reaching full term?"
"Yes, this is the only way to explain why she suddenly gave birth prematurely, and why it was such a coincidence that the spring of spring appeared on March 17th."
Song Zihua didn't know about this yet. After listening to A Luo's story, he took a breath of cold air. He never expected that Concubine Yu would dare to do such a thing of confiscating the family and annihilating the clan. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Mother, is it possible that you want to do this?"
Too much, how can Concubine Yu be able to do such a thing when she lives in a deep palace."
"Although she lives in seclusion in the palace, don't forget that she also has an Ama who is a member of the imperial family. Furthermore, with her scheming, it is not surprising that she did this." After that, she said: "The Imperial Physician of Song Dynasty
, I would like to ask you to do me a favor."
Song Zihua stood up quickly and said, "I don't dare. Just ask, Madam."
"I want to find that Wen Po to verify the authenticity of the auspicious vision, but you also know my situation outside the palace. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Qi Kuan and the others to find her, so I want to ask you
Help."
Hearing that this was the case, Song Zihua immediately said: "Don't worry, Madam, I will try my best to search for you. In addition, I can also check with Dr. Zhou. He often goes to Xianfu Palace to ask for pulse, and maybe he will know something."
Xianyue said gratefully: "Okay, then there will be Imperial Physician Lao Song."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. By the way, Wei Chen has found an ancient recipe that helps to recuperate the body affected by coldness. Your Majesty, you can give it a try. Maybe it will be useful."
"I appreciate the kindness of Imperial Physician Song, but..." Xianyue sneered: "I'm afraid my health will never get better in this life, so why bother anymore."
A Luo advised from the side: "Master, no matter whether it works or not, try it first and then talk about it."
Zhichun also followed: "Yes, master, just give it a try, maybe you will be surprised. If you are afraid of hardship, I will pickle some more green plums, and eat one every time you drink the medicine, so that you will not
I feel miserable."
Just as Qi Kuan was about to speak, Xiayue said, "What's wrong? Do you even want to persuade me?"
Qi Kuan chuckled and said: "Since the Song Dynasty doctor said there is a way, there is no harm in master trying it. Even if it is useless, it is just the same as now, and there is no loss."
"Listening to your words one by one, it seems that I have to give it a try?" Before A Luo and others could speak, she said: "That's all, I'll give it a try. Just as Qi Kuan said just now,
Even if it’s useless, it’s still the same as it is today.”
Hearing what she said, Song Zihua quickly took out a prescription from his sleeve and said, "Wei Chen has already written down the prescription. Your Majesty, you just need to take it according to the prescription. It will be twice a day. It will be a little bitter than ordinary medicine. I hope your Majesty will take it."
If you persevere, maybe... there may be a miracle."
Xianyue took the prescription and sighed: "According to the auspicious words of the imperial physician of the Song Dynasty, I also hope that a miracle will happen."
After this conversation, Song Zihua, A Luo and others began to secretly inquire about the news about Po Wen who had delivered the baby to Concubine Yu. After several inquiries, they finally got the news. Po Wen's surname was Liu, and others called her Liu Erniang. She lived in the west of the city.
In Guihua Hutong.
After learning about his residence, Qi Kuan immediately left the palace. After asking all the way, he finally came to Liu Erniang's residence. After knocking on the door for a while but no one answered, he kicked the door open and walked in. When he entered, he found that the place was empty.
There were no traces of anything that should be soft, but the charcoal in the stove was still warm, so he probably left it not long ago.
This place is the closest to Xizhimen. If they want to leave, they will most likely go through Xizhimen. Thinking of this, Qi Kuan hurried to Xizhimen. When he got there, he saw only people coming and going, and he only saw Liu Erniang once.
, it is really difficult to identify Liu Erniang among so many people.
However, if he can't recognize her, and Liu Erniang is asked to leave Beijing, it will be extremely difficult to find her again in the future. This... what should I do?
Qi Kuan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. He tried his best to find Liu Erniang, but he still couldn't find Liu Erniang. He wondered if she had left the city? The longer the delay, the greater the possibility.
After some anxious thinking, Qi Kuan finally came up with a way. Although it was a bit arrogant, it was currently feasible.
Qi Kuan walked a few steps towards the city gate and said loudly: "Liu Erniang, didn't you agree to deliver my wife's baby? Why did you leave again and don't come back quickly?"
His shout attracted the attention of everyone, including a group of three people who had already entered the city gate. They came to Qi Kuan. Among them, a woman in her fifties said: "Who are you? Why don't I
I remember seeing you."
This woman was none other than Liu Erniang, whom Qi Kuan could not find. When she spoke, Qi Kuan recognized her, took her hand and said, "Liu Erniang, we have finally found you!"
"Our family?" Liu Erniang heard the self-identification in his words, her expression changed, and she said in a trembling voice: "Are you from the palace?"
"That's right, there is a master in the palace who wants to see you. He should go back with our family immediately." Qi Kuan was very scared. If he had been a moment later, he would have been too late.
How could Liu Erniang be willing to let him leave? She struggled hard and said: "I don't know you, and I don't want to see any master. Let go!"
The old man with a beard next to her was Liu Erniang's husband. He looked panicked and said, "Hurry up and let go of my old lady. If this happens again, we will have to call someone."
"No matter what you say, don't let us go. If you are not afraid of things getting serious, just shout." Seeing the panic in Liu Erniang's eyebrows, he became more and more sure of his guess and said: "Liu Erniang, you did it.
What I know most clearly in my heart is that once a quarrel breaks out, the first person to be in trouble is not me, but... you!"
When he said this, Liu Erniang didn't dare to shout, she just said: "I don't know anything, you don't have to waste your efforts."
Qi Kuan smiled coldly and said, "It's not a good idea to stand on the street and talk like this. If you have anything to say, let's wait until we get back."
"Why should we listen to you? Look at you like this. You are not a good person at first glance. Let go of my mother quickly, otherwise you will not blame me for being rude." The young man in his twenties who spoke must be the son of Liu and his wife.
.
"Ali, don't talk too much." After scolding, Liu Erniang stared at Qi Kuan and said, "Who is your master?"
"We'll find out later, let's go." With that said, he forced Liu Erniang to walk toward Osmanthus Hutong. He was so focused on staring at Liu Erniang that he didn't notice someone quietly following behind.
