After deciding to marry his daughter into the Xiao family, the eldest son-in-law Yang Zhong came to the palace the next day to ask Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty for marriage.
If he proposed marriage directly, he would definitely be rejected, so Yang Zhong came prepared this time.
He knelt on the ground and took out a small box from his arms, "I would like to dedicate these two heavenly fragrant cardamom to the Queen to celebrate her birthday. I wish the Queen to be as blessed as the East Sea, live as long as the Southern Mountains, stay young and everlasting!"
As soon as the words Tianxiang Cardamom came out, Emperor Ming Yong's expression changed. He stared closely at the box in Yang Zhong's hand and said solemnly: "Are you sure that the thing in this box is Tianxiang Cardamom?"
"How dare I deceive you?" Yang Zhong said and opened the box.
Suddenly, the entire imperial study room was filled with a strange medicinal fragrance. Just smelling this medicinal fragrance was refreshing and made people feel comfortable all over!
"Hurry up and bring it up to me for a look!" Emperor Ming Yong said immediately.
Yang Zhong handed it to Manager Chen.
Manager Chen carefully presented it, and Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty saw these two heavenly fragrant cardamom that exuded a strong medicinal fragrance.
Even Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty was excited: "It is indeed the rumored miracle medicine! Where did you get such a miracle medicine?"
Yang Zhong said: "I have been asking people to look for Tianxiang cardamom outside for these years and want to present it to the emperor. However, this medicine is too precious and cannot be found in the Yong Dynasty. In desperation, I sent
I went to the Northern Jin Kingdom and the Feng Xiang Kingdom to search, and the emperor paid off, and finally let me find the first heavenly fragrant cardamom in the Northern Jin Kingdom!"
"However, just one pill is useless. As we all know, you need to take two pills of natural cardamom! So I didn't offer it to you right away, so I asked people to continue searching. It took another twenty years, and my men finally found it.
I unexpectedly found this second natural cardamom in a remote and isolated village! It happened to be the birthday of the Queen, so I boldly returned to Beijing without authorization and presented these two natural cardamom to the Queen.
I wish the Queen a long life and endless life!"
"I have a heart, I have a heart. You can live in peace!" Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty was overjoyed to get two heavenly fragrant cardamom and said when he saw him still kneeling.
"Your Majesty, I have an unkind request." Yang Zhong knelt and did not move.
Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty: "You offer such a valuable treasure. As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you. Tell me what you want."
"It is my honor that the treasure I presented can be liked by the emperor. I will never dare to do anything with it! It's just that although I and the eldest princess have two sons, they only have one daughter, Chan'er. She is still the eldest daughter.
To be honest with the emperor, I wanted her to come to the capital to find a good marriage, but in the end... it was just that the matter had come to this, and I could only shamelessly ask for a marriage decree from the emperor.
, so that everyone can stop talking about it and let Chan'er get married in a beautiful way."
Yang Zhong prostrated on the ground and begged.
Of course, Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty knew everything about what happened on the hunting ground. He knew that Yang Chan wanted to go to the prince's tent to embrace him, but ended up falling into Xiao Sa's trap.
The two families have been quarreling a lot these days because of this incident, and he even called Kang Hua and Shu Fei over to scold them.
But none of this is a big deal right now.
"I have approved this matter." Emperor Ming Yong said.
"I thank you, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty stayed with him for another conversation before letting him go back.
Shortly after Yang Zhong arrived at the princess's mansion, the imperial edict granting marriage arrived.
Princess Kanghua said blankly: "How did you ask the emperor for marriage?"
"Two heavenly fragrant cardamom." Yang Zhong said.
Princess Kanghua's eyes widened immediately, "When did you collect two of them?"
Yang Zhong sighed deeply and said, "I just got the second heavenly fragrant cardamom a few days ago."
Either way, it was God's will to get the daughter after she was tricked by the Xiao family. Otherwise, with these two heavenly fragrant cardamom, the daughter would be able to enter the Prince's Mansion without any hindrance!
"The heavenly fragrant cardamom is so precious, why do you still give it to me?" Princess Kanghua said heartbrokenly.
Yang Zhong looked at her, "Since we have decided to let Chan'er marry Xiao Sa, then we must stand on King Qi's side. If we return to the fiefdom, our ability to help King Qi will be limited, so we must stay in the capital!
"
After Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty came to the throne, they were sent to the fiefdom and were not allowed to come back even a step.
After so many years, Princess Kanghua brought her little daughter Yang Chan back as a visiting bride.
But it would be unfair to stay in the capital, especially for him, the eldest son-in-law. Once Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty is held accountable, he will not be able to quibble!
These two pieces of heavenly fragrant cardamom were the price in exchange for him being able to stay in the capital and help King Qi!
Princess Kanghua was still in severe pain, "You can think of other ways. Why use magic medicine like Tianxiang Cardamom? How can such a trump card be revealed so quickly!"
Yang Zhong comforted her, "Don't feel bad. One natural cardamom won't be of any use. Only two will do. But even with two natural cardamom, the medicinal power is limited. Only by taking the third natural cardamom can the medicine be healed."
There are legendary miraculous effects. But it took me most of my life and a lot of manpower and financial resources to finally collect this second heavenly fragrant cardamom. I can't even think of the third one. In this case, why not use it?
To pave the way? Nothing else works as well as the natural fragrant cardamom."
Although Princess Kanghua is still reluctant to part with her, now that she has given it away, what else can she say?
Not only did the eldest princess's palace have a copy of the marriage decree, but the Xiao family also had a copy.
Now, of course, the marriage between the two families is a certainty.
Inside the palace at this time.
Tong Laozheng hurried over with a medicine box and asked the eunuch, "What's going on? Isn't the emperor's health quite stable? Why did he suddenly call me in?"
"The old gentleman will know it when he sees the emperor," the eunuch said.
Not long after, Dr. Tong was brought in. When he saw Emperor Ming Yong doing well, he was stunned.
"Isn't it okay, Your Majesty? Why are you so anxious to find me to enter the palace?"
"I invited Mr. Tong to come over today, and there is indeed a reason for this." Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty personally came to help him, "Mr. Tong, please come and see if these two heavenly fragrant cardamom are real or fake?"
"Tianxiang cardamom?" Mr. Tong was stunned for a moment, and quickly took the box handed over by Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty.
After spending two full sticks of incense, Dr. Tong was sure that these two pieces of heavenly fragrant cardamom were real!
"Where did the emperor get the heavenly fragrant cardamom? He even got two of them at once!" Mr. Tong said in shock.
"This is a gift from the consort to congratulate the queen on her birthday!" Emperor Ming Yong said, a little anxiously, "Since this medicine is real, can it cure my dilapidated body?"
Mr. Tong picked up the heavenly scented cardamom and continued to examine it, "The heavenly scented cardamom has the miraculous effect of living dead human flesh and white bones. As long as the dose of medicine is sufficient, it will naturally be no problem to cure the old diseases in the emperor's body."
He said and looked at Emperor Ming Yong, "However, these two heavenly fragrant cardamom are not enough. If the emperor wants to completely recover, he must have a third heavenly fragrant cardamom!"
"The third heavenly fragrant cardamom?" Emperor Ming Yong was startled, "Isn't just two enough?"
