Emperor Chen didn't care much about his birthday banquet. In the past few years that Tang Ning had been in Beijing, he had never held a grand birthday party.
This point is the same as that of several women in his family, especially Su Mei. She is very concerned about her age. Even though Tang Ning has emphasized to her many times, she will still be the best in the capital in a few years or more than ten years.
Flower, she still doesn't want to spend too much time on her birthday.
At Emperor Chen's age, he is also an emperor. Every birthday he celebrates means that he is one step closer to the imperial mausoleum. It is reasonable that he does not want to remind himself of this matter every year.
Even though he didn't make a big deal about it, the emperor's birthday gift still couldn't be too perfunctory.
It's too vulgar to give money as a gift, and Emperor Chen is now very wealthy. If you don't give him more than 100 million taels of silver, you won't be able to impress him at all. If you give him 100 million taels of silver ----- he thinks well.
We can't send a fireworks display like we did on the Queen Mother's birthday. The idea is there, but this trick has already been used on the Queen Mother's birthday, so there is nothing new.
When giving gifts, it's important to give them what they like. Apart from money, Huang Chen doesn't seem to have any other obvious preferences.
Since she had agreed to Zhao Man, Tang Ning still decided to think carefully about it. At this moment, Qing'er ran in from outside and said, "Uncle, we have a guest!"
The Tang family did have a guest today, and they were of extremely high status.
Since leaving Lingzhou, Tang Ning has never seen Divine Doctor Sun again. He has been obsessed with medicine all his life, and his ideal is to help people in need. He rarely stays in one place for too long. He has been wandering around somewhere in the past two years.
.
Tang Ning stepped forward and asked with a smile, "When did senior brother come back?"
"I just arrived in the capital yesterday." Divine Doctor Sun smiled and said: "Back then, I felt that my junior brother was a dragon among people, and he would eventually take off. But I didn't expect that after three years of not seeing each other, my junior brother would have become a prominent figure in the court..."
"Senior brother, thank you..." Tang Ning smiled modestly and asked, "Senior brother, how long do you plan to stay in the capital when you come back this time?"
Divine Doctor Sun stroked his beard and said: "I have gained a lot from my travels in the past two years. I may stay in the capital for a long time and record these experiences. By then, I still want to discuss it with my junior brother. I hope
Junior brother is generous with his teachings."
In terms of medical skills, even if Tang Ning studied for a hundred years, he still wouldn't be as good as Dr. Sun. But fortunately, he had hundreds or even thousands of years of experience, which would save him a lot of detours.
He smiled and asked: "Senior brother is in the capital, where do you live?"
Doctor Sun said: "Stay in the inn for now."
Tang Ning shook her head and said: "There are so many people in the inn, how can you calm down and study medicine? Why don't you stay in the Tang family, senior brother? I will arrange a secluded courtyard for you. It will be convenient for us to discuss the problem then."
Doctor Sun originally wanted to refuse, but the second half of Tang Ning's words moved him. He looked at Tang Ning and wondered, "Wouldn't this be disturbing junior brother's family?"
"It's nothing." Tangning waved her hand and said, "Senior brother is not a certain person, so how can it be considered a nuisance?"
Old Zheng, who was lowering his head to sharpen his knife, looked up at him. The old beggar burped and looked at him.
After Divine Doctor Sun hesitated, he nodded and said, "Then thank you, junior brother."
Tang Ning really didn't think this was a nuisance. After all, Doctor Sun was not like some idle person. No one in the world had ever had a disease or disaster. With him here, it was like having one more thing for no reason..., too many.
So many lives, which no one else, including the emperor, could ask for.
After settling down with Divine Doctor Sun, Tang Ning thought of something, looked at him, rubbed her hands, and said, "Senior brother, are there any Great Return Pills here?"
Divine Doctor Sun nodded and said: "I have refined five pills in the past two years, and now there are three left. If my junior brother wants them, I will give them all to you..."
The reason why the Great Returning Pill is precious is that in this world, only Divine Doctor Sun can refine it. Even the imperial doctors in the palace do not have this ability. In two years, Divine Doctor Sun only refined five pills, which shows how precious this thing is.
Tang Ning looked at the porcelain bottle that Divine Doctor Sun took out, her face turned red, and she stretched out her hand and said, "How embarrassing..."
Divine Doctor Sun smiled and said: "If you leave these things here with me, they won't be of much use. Junior brother, if they are useful, just put them all away."
After getting the porcelain bottle, Tang Ning asked, "Is this thing difficult to refine?"
"It's not too difficult to refine it." Divine Doctor Sun shook his head and said, "The main reason is that the medicinal materials for refining this substance are extremely precious and difficult to collect. In the past two years, I have traveled all over the Western Regions to search for medicinal materials, and I have found that
Only these few were refined..."
Tang Ning said generously: "Senior brother, if you need any medicinal materials, just ask and I will prepare them."
Doctor Sun said: "These medicinal materials are difficult to buy, and refining them once will cost at least one hundred thousand silver..."
Tangning waved her hand and said, "It's okay, I'll have someone prepare it ten times first..."
Doctor Sun looked at him as if he didn't care, as if this was not a million taels, but a hundred taels..., he pursed his lips, and finally said nothing more.
Tang Ning admitted that he was actually a bit stingy, but when it was time to be generous, he never cared about money.
A big rejuvenation pill can save a life, but a hundred thousand taels of silver cannot.
This thing is a life-sustaining elixir, the more the merrier, Tang Ning is willing to spend any amount of money on it.
Zhong Mingli and Chen Yuxian walked in from outside. Zhong Mingli looked at Divine Doctor Sun and said in surprise: "Mr. Sun, long time no see..."
"It's Mr. Zhong." Divine Doctor Sun smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for two years. Congratulations to Mr. Zhong for your promotion..."
Tang Ning left the courtyard without delaying her father-in-law and Dr. Sun's reminiscing about old times.
He came to Su Mei's room, handed a porcelain bottle to her, and said, "You must have kept this great rejuvenation pill. It can save lives at critical moments."
"The Great Returning Pill?" Su Mei had obviously heard of this legendary divine item, and said in surprise: "This item has a price but no market. Even the emperor can't buy it. Where did you get it? It can't be a fake.
Right?"
"Don't worry, the others may be fake, but this one is definitely not." Tang Ning handed the porcelain bottle to her and said, "This is refined by my senior brother."
Su Mei was surprised and said: "Senior brother?"
After listening to his explanation, Su Mei rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are a person who, in addition to girls, even deceives the elderly..."
"What kind of lie..." Tang Ning said, "I am relying on my real talent and practical learning. Do you think Mr. Sun is as easy to deceive as you?"
Su Mei's eyes flickered and she asked, "Am I easy to deceive?"
"You'd better lie." Tangning held her in his arms and said, "As long as I treat you a little better, you will want to tear your heart out. Is there anyone better than you to lie to me?"
Su Mei's jade was wrapped around his neck, her breath was like blue, and she said softly: "Then lie to me for the rest of my life..."
Tangning responded with his eyes, because his lips were blocked and he could not speak.
Tang Mansion, another place.
Doctor Sun withdrew his hand from Zhong Yi's wrist and took Su Ru's pulse again. When he stood up, Chen Yuxian couldn't wait to ask: "How is it?"
Doctor Sun said: "There is nothing wrong with the health of the two girls."
Chen Yuxian said: "But why haven't they..."
"Mrs. Chen doesn't know something." Divine Doctor Sun stroked his beard and said, "This kind of thing is not entirely the fault of the woman. Many times, it is the problem of the man that leads to the lack of heirs."
Chen Yuxian turned pale and said, "Doctor Sun mean that the one with the problem is Ning'er?"
Divine Doctor Sun sighed and said, "None of the four ladies of the Tang family have any heirs. It can almost be concluded that it is his problem."
Zhong Yi and Su Ru's faces were red, but in front of Dr. Sun, Zhong Mingli and Chen Yuxian, they were too embarrassed to tell the whole story, so they could only lower their heads deeply and stare at their toes.
…
When Tang Ning walked out of the room, she found Divine Doctor Sun and her father-in-law standing in the yard, looking at him with strange eyes.
His heart skipped a beat, could it be that he still had Su Mei's lip marks on his face?
No, he had obviously wiped it off before he came out...
He walked forward, looked at them, and asked: "Brother, father-in-law and mother-in-law, are you okay?"
Chen Yuxian looked at him, his eyes full of pity, and said: "Ning'er, don't worry, Dr. Sun will definitely cure your disease..."
