Naturally, Tangning couldn't explain to Zhong Mingli, Chen Yuxian and Sun Shenyi why Xiao Ruxiaoyi couldn't get pregnant, so she just laughed and ignored the topic.
He came to a room in the backyard, closed the door, and knocked on a wall inside three times. After a while, Zhao Man pushed open the secret door of the bookshelf and walked out.
She looked out the window and asked, "Are there any guests at home? Zicuckoo said she saw an old man coming in."
Tangning nodded and said, "He is my senior brother. I will introduce you to him later."
He handed a porcelain vase to Zhao Man and said, "This is a gift for His Majesty, please keep it."
Zhao Man looked at the small porcelain vase and asked in surprise: "What is this?"
Tang Ning said: "Da Huan Dan, taking it can strengthen the body and prolong life. It is very good for the body. It costs one hundred thousand taels of silver."
"Is it so expensive?" A look of distress appeared on Zhao Man's face, and he handed the porcelain bottle over and said, "How about changing it to another one."
Tang Ning stuffed the porcelain bottle into her arms and said, "One hundred thousand taels of silver is nothing. If he can agree to let you marry me, why not give him dozens or hundreds of them?"
Zhao Man's eyes were full of joy, but she gave Tang Ning a gentle slap on her hand and said, "One pill can extend your life, and dozens or hundreds of pills will extend your life. How can your father be forced to death?"
Tang Ning and Zhao Man were affectionate for a while, and then she returned to the princess mansion and prepared to return to the palace to present gifts.
Zhao Man's gift was settled, but Tang Ning also had to worry about Zhao Yuan's gift.
Today's King Run is no longer the Zhao Yuan of the past. Everything he does in front of Emperor Chen must be meaningful. Even if he doesn't realize it himself, they, the people standing behind him, must make arrangements for him.
comprehensive.
It just so happened that Mr. Sun returned to Beijing, Zhao Man's gift was obtained from him, and Zhao Yuan's gift also required him to put some thought into it.
Tang Ning asked for some health-preserving prescriptions from Divine Doctor Sun. Zhao Yuan's soup-making skills are now top-notch, so it won't be a problem to make a few refreshing and nourishing medicinal meals.
While preparing the ingredients, Zhao Yuan asked: "Sir, is it too much to cook this soup for three hours?"
Tang Ning glanced at him and said impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, just cook it if you are told to cook it. How can you show that you are paying attention if you don't cook it longer?"
When Zhao Yuan's medicinal meal is cooked, he will accompany Su Mei to practice. In a few days, she will leave with Bai Jin Gongsun Ying. They will not be able to see each other for half a year or even a year. The last few days
Naturally, you should cherish your time every day.
When Zhao Yuan was cooking, not only Tang Ning was watching beside him, but also the little girl from the Wang family.
She put her hands behind her back and stood on tiptoes next to Zhao Yuan, watching him chop the ingredients and put them into the casserole, and asked softly: "Brother Yuan, what is your favorite food? I will cook it for you when I grow up."
"
Zhao Yuan carefully measured the water in a small bowl and added it to the casserole, and asked casually: "Are you asking about the past or now?"
The little girl from the Wang family asked: "What did you like before and what do you like now?"
"I used to like to eat assorted casserole." Zhao Yuan looked back at her and said, "Now I like to eat assorted casserole with you."
The little girl's eyes were bright and she said, "Then we will eat together every day from now on."
Tang Ning voluntarily left the kitchen and handed the stage to Zhao Yuan.
Regarding how to seize the direct descendants, there were some things that Tang Ning needed to teach him, but some things he didn't need, and Tang Ning couldn't teach him.
…
Royal study room.
After reviewing the last memorial of the day, Chen Huang stood up, rubbed his sour eyes, walked out of the hall, looked at the square in front of the hall, and sighed: "I am really old. Ten years ago, there was no one else."
I have approved dozens of memorials, but now I am not even half of them, and I am already so exhausted..."
Wei Jian smiled and said: "Your Majesty is in the prime of life and is not old at all..."
"I passed the age of 100 last year, so how can I still be in my prime..." Chen Huang waved his hand and said: "My father passed away at my age. Do you know why I don't want to hold a big birthday party?
Just because I don’t want to remind myself that I am one step closer to death every year..."
Wei Jian bowed and said: "The late emperor worked hard on state affairs and his body was exhausted. Your Majesty's court has so many high-ranking ministers. The country is peaceful and stable. Whenever there is a strong enemy, we work together to defeat it. Your Majesty's body is so healthy now. It will definitely
He won’t be like the late emperor, who could still enjoy the prosperity of our country for decades..."
A trace of ridicule appeared on Chen Huang's face, and he said: "What can I do if I am an emperor? After all, I can't escape birth, old age, illness and death..."
"Father..." Zhao Man came over from a distance. Chen Huang gathered his mood, looked at her, and asked: "How come Man'er has time to come to father today?"
The imperial study room was once one of Princess Pingyang's favorite places, but since her marriage to the Chu Kingdom and her marriage to Tang Jing happened one after another, she has never been to this place again.
Chen Huang felt guilty in his heart, and when he looked at her, he deeply hid this guilt.
Zhao Man took out a small brocade box from her arms and said, "Father's birthday is coming soon, and Man'er is here to give him a gift."
Wei Jian stepped forward and took it carefully. Chen Huangxiao asked, "What did Man'er send?"
Zhao Man said: "It's the Great Returning Pill."
Emperor Chen was surprised and said: "The Great Return Pill?"
"The Great Returning Pill?" Wei Jian looked at the brocade box in his hand and said in shock: "Your Majesty, the Great Returning Pill is a good thing. It is said that this thing came from the hands of Sun Shenyi. The sick and injured can revive their souls and extend their lives if they take it.
Those who are not suffering from illness can eat it to strengthen their health and prolong their life..."
"Prolong life?" A trace of doubt appeared in Chen Huang's eyes, and asked: "Does this thing really have such a miraculous effect?"
Wei Jiandao: "Back to Your Majesty, the effectiveness of this Great Returning Pill has been proven. It has a price but no market. It is impossible to buy. Only Sun Shenyi can refine it, not even Taiyuan Hospital can refine it. This is a real pill."
baby."
Chen Huang looked at Zhao Man and asked, "How did Man'er get such a treasure?"
Zhao Man smiled and said: "Of course I asked for it from Dr. Sun. Dr. Sun returned to Beijing today and lived next door to the princess's mansion. I thought that my father worked hard every day and needed to replenish his body, so he asked Mr. Sun
I begged for one..."
…
A moment later, in the imperial study room, the imperial physician Cheng Ling Yihong carefully looked at an elixir on the plate, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this elixir is indeed a great return elixir, and it must have been made by my master.
I will never admit my mistake.”
"Man'er is interested." Chen Huang showed a look of relief on his face, looked at Wei Jian, and said: "The yard recently repaired by the Ministry of Industry will be given to her."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly sniffed, then smiled and said, "Yuan'er is here."
Zhao Yuan walked in from outside the palace carrying a soup cup and said, "Father, the soup is here, drink it while it's hot."
Chen Huang took two sips of the soup, looked at him, and asked with a smile: "Your royal brothers and sisters have prepared birthday gifts for me, has Yuan'er made any preparations?"
Zhao Yuan pointed to the soup cup and said: "This is the birthday gift I prepared for my father. I learned a few medicinal recipes from the miracle doctor. Grandpa, the miracle doctor said that after eating this medicinal diet, you can strengthen your body and live a long life."
If Yuan'er makes it for you every day, your father, mother, and concubines can also live a long life, and your royal brothers and sisters can also live a long life..."
Chen Huang happily took him over, let him sit on his lap, and said softly: "If they can all be as caring as Yuan'er, I can rest assured..."
