What's more troublesome now is that this residual poison has been accumulated in the body for a long time. Because of Su Guifei's physical weakness, she can only take various decoctions to nourish the body all year round. The medicine is three-part poison, which accumulates over time, causing the failure of various organs.
Now even if you use good elixirs and take good care of yourself, you only have a few years left to live.
Mingruo sighed, this disease is really difficult to treat. The treatment plan is the same as before, detoxification first and then conditioning. However, the effect of Yiling Pill is a bit too strong for the current Concubine Su, so some drugs are used instead.
Mild herbs will be safer...
Ming Ruo lowered her head and thought about the prescription, and a gentle female voice called softly: "Ruo'er."
Mingruo raised her eyes and met a pair of water-cut pupils. She felt her eyes were hot and her body seemed to have been awakened by memories: "Mother."
"Be good." Concubine Su's cold fingers pressed against Mingruo's cheek, "Mom, I can't bear to see you again, but I can't wish for you."
"As long as mother takes the medicine well, she will get better..." Many times, the patient's desire to survive is more important than the medicine itself.
"Mother has been taking medicine for so many years, and it's really painful..." Concubine Su slowly sat up.
Mingruo quickly took out a pillow and gave it to her to lean on: "I studied medicine under the master of Yunzhong Temple, so I can make pills that are not bitter for my mother."
If you don't like the bitterness, just put sugar coating on the outside of the pills. For Mingruo who has a medical system, it is very simple.
"What a silly boy my mother is." Concubine Su looked at Mingruo with gentle and kind eyes.
Ming Ruo could actually understand that what Concubine Su said, "It's really too painful," was probably because of the pain in her heart. How could someone who has been on the sickbed all year round not be suffering.
"Ruo'er, where is the ring your mother gave you when you left the palace?" Concubine Su looked at Ming Ruo's slender and white fingers, only wearing a small ring.
"Oh, yes." Mingruo took out the medical bag from her 'sleeve pocket' and took out a ruby-encrusted ring from it.
When the original owner got married, Concubine Su gave her two things. One was the jade pendant that she asked the secret guard to bring when she was delivering medicine, and the other was this ruby ring. The ring was inlaid with very large gems, which was very inconvenient to wear.
, Mingruo received it into the space.
Concubine Su stroked the ring, took out a silver hairpin from under the pillow, and handed it to Mingruo: "Open the drawer of the dressing table and take out the red sandalwood box inside."
Mingruo used a silver hairpin to open the drawer. Inside, in addition to a one-foot-square red sandalwood box, there were also some exquisite porcelain bottles that Mingruo was very familiar with - they were all elixirs she had sent to Concubine Su.
Mingruo brought the red sandalwood box to Concubine Su, who fiddled with the lock on the wooden box.
Mingruo looked at the lock in surprise. It looked very much like the combination lock on the suitcase of later generations. However, the ones on it were not numbers, but various patterns.
With a click, the lock opened. Inside was a bright yellow imperial edict and a piece of white silk.
Concubine Su picked up the piece of silk and handed it to Mingruo: "This is... it can be regarded as a treasure map. It was given to me by your father back then. He only said that it was guarded by the Nanrong royal family.
My mother doesn’t know what the treasure is exactly.
The reason my mother didn't tell you before was because, even if it is a treasure, when you are not capable of protecting and utilizing it, it will become trouble and a burden.
I am giving you this map now, not to ask you to do anything, just think of it as... a thought. You don't need it now, but it may be useful in the future. How to choose and use it is up to you.
.”
Mingruo opened the silk, and there was a floor plan drawn on it, with various secret passages and caves scattered all over the place. Mingruo couldn't understand it for a while.
Concubine Su found another small porcelain bottle in the corner of the box: "In addition to the maze, there is also poisonous miasma in the mountains. This is the antidote. This gem ring is the key to the last door."
Based on the principle of "greed for money and lust", Ming Ruo did not refuse, but put the map, antidote and ring into her "sleeve pocket". Although she was already a little rich woman, the more money, the better.
.
Concubine Su looked thoughtfully at the last item in the box - the bright yellow imperial edict.
"Is this the imperial edict of your father to confer you as his concubine?" Mingruo intuitively felt that the contents of this box were all related to her cheap father.
"No." Concubine Su shook her head, "But it was indeed given by your father."
Concubine Su smiled and unfolded the imperial edict. This was the birthday gift your father gave me when I first entered the palace.
Looking at Su Guifei's uncontrollable expression, Ming Ruo guessed that her father might have written a love poem or something like that in the imperial edict. When she saw the imperial edict clearly, she was a little stunned - the edict was actually blank, with only
The far left side is covered with the emperor's private seal and national seal.
Seeing that Mingruo was a little confused, Concubine Su smiled and said, "This is a wish he made me. Whatever I want, I just write it down myself after I think about it."
Dude, this is just like a blank check given by a domineering president. You can fill in as much amount as you want. It’s so cheap. My father is so manly. Is there any such thing? Mingruo spreads dog food every day, and today he was suddenly stuffed with a big mouthful of old dog food.
Food and wine become more fragrant as they age, and dog food also tastes better as it ages.
"It's a pity that I'm a girl. If I were a prince and was directly appointed as the crown prince, wouldn't it be a win?" Ming Ruo felt that her cheap father was too unreliable.
"If you are really a prince, my mother will write you a prosperous fiefdom on it. You can live a good life as an idle prince." Concubine Su's clear eyes were stained with a hint of loneliness. "What's so good about being an emperor? You have to live a good life every day."
Faced with endless political affairs, we often can’t help ourselves, but it’s just superficial beauty..."
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded in agreement. How happy it is to be a carefree salted fish.
"You go down and have a rest first, and have dinner with your mother later."
"Okay." Mingruo needs to carefully consider the prescription. It must have obvious effects and mild properties. This medicine is really difficult to make. "Would you like to help you lie down?"
"No need, I feel dizzy after lying down for a long time." Concubine Su shook her head.
"I'll come over again during dinner." Mingruo stood up.
"Remember to bring your husband, mother wants to meet him."
"Ah...how did you know he was coming?" Mingruo was a little surprised.
"When you set out from Donghuan, Zhaobai sent a message back." Su Guifei said with a smile, "Isn't your ugly son-in-law afraid of seeing my mother-in-law?"
"Your son-in-law is not ugly..." My boyfriend's good looks are not just something he says casually.
Mingruo walked out of the dormitory and saw Si Haochen and Fifth Brother waiting outside.
Yan Zhaobai knew that Mingruo went to Yunzhong Temple to study medicine and had seen her treating Jiyue. He knew that Mingruo's medical skills were not inferior to those of the old doctors: "How is your concubine?"
"Go back to Mingzhu Pavilion first." Mingruo followed his memory and walked towards the palace where he once lived.
