Three days later, Queen Mother Li was able to speak.
After five days, in addition to soup, Queen Mother Li could barely eat some cakes and the like.
Ten days later, the maids helped Queen Mother Li sit up from the bed, and her spirits improved significantly.
Emperor Jianwen was very happy and rewarded many imperial doctors heavily.
Empress Yu said with a smile: "This time my mother is seriously ill, and Dr. Zhao strongly recommended the prescription. My mother has improved greatly, and the emperor should reward Dr. Zhao highly."
Emperor Jianwen smiled happily and said: "Mr. Zhang is old and frail, and it is not appropriate to worry about it. Why not let Dr. Zhao be the deputy chief of the hospital?"
Once Zhang Yuanshi reaches old age, this subtitle can be removed, and he can naturally become the principal Yuanshi.
Imperial Physician Zhao suppressed the excitement in his heart and respectfully accepted the order to express his gratitude.
After returning to the Imperial Hospital, a group of imperial physicians who received the news immediately gathered around and congratulated him.
The newly appointed Vice-President Zhao is very satisfied and has a proud face.
This is power!
…
After Xie Mingxi learned about this, she raised the corners of her mouth and showed a meaningful smile.
Sheng Hong whispered: "Vice-Chancellor Zhao is also a member of the Queen Mother. This time he insisted on using strong medicine, and the Queen Mother's health improved quite a bit. This should be a good thing. I don't know why, but I always feel that there is a sequel to this matter.
.”
Xie Mingxi said lightly: "It's not a big deal. It's just a slight loss of longevity."
Sheng Hong: "..."
Sheng Hong looked at Xie Mingxi with a somewhat complicated and subtle look: "Mingxi, please don't tell me that you also understand medical theory and skills."
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "I have never seen a doctor or prescribed a prescription for anyone. I have only read some medical books, memorized some prescriptions, and have a basic understanding of medical theory."
Is that it or is that all?!
The poor student was deeply hurt by the top student.
Sheng Hong was dumbfounded for a moment, then half-jokingly sighed: "It's been more than six years since we met. I thought I knew everything about you, but I never knew you knew medicine! Are you okay?
tell me?"
Xie Mingxi smiled casually and said: "It's nothing. Oh, by the way, I opened a medicine shop a few years ago, specializing in ointments and pills. Now I am fairly wealthy. I brought it over as a dowry that day, but you never asked.
, and I never said anything.”
Sheng Hong indeed never asked about Xie Mingxi's dowry. Not only did he not ask, he also took the initiative to give Xie Mingxi the account books and warehouse keys in the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
When Xie Mingxi said this, Sheng Hong couldn't help but be aroused: "What kind of medicine are you selling?"
Xie Mingxi said lightly: "Jade Cream and Shenxian Pills."
Sheng Hong: "..."
Even if he is as noble as a prince, he is not so despicable as to live in the world. Jade cream shops are everywhere, and Shenxian Pill is even more famous...
Sheng Hong didn't know what to say for a moment, and he finally said after a while: "Can you prepare medicine?"
Xie Mingxi hummed.
The two looked at each other in silence. After a moment, Sheng Hong suddenly laughed: "If I marry you, it seems that I don't have to worry about it in this life."
Xie Mingxi is by no means "poorly wealthy", it is true that she has a rich net worth.
Xie Mingxi raised her eyebrows and smiled: "You don't have to do anything in the future, I can support you."
The two of them laughed in unison. With a tacit understanding, they put the topic aside for the time being and talked about the affairs in the palace.
"What does the queen want to do? If she intends to deal with the imperial grandmother, my father will never sit idly by and ignore her," Sheng Hong said in a low voice.
Xie Mingxi smiled and said: "Why does the Queen need to do anything? She just needs to stand by and stand aside, that's enough."
Empress Dowager Li was so ill that even though the imperial doctor prescribed strong medicine, she only got better. In the future, if her mood fluctuates again, she may relapse. Whether she can survive it depends on Empress Dowager Li's luck.
People are subject to birth, old age, illness and death. What does this have to do with Queen Yu?
What could Emperor Jianwen do?
Sheng Hong couldn't help but sigh: "This is much more powerful than killing people with open swords and guns."
Xie Mingxi smiled faintly: "In the harem, there are many such methods of killing people without blood. The imperial grandmother has been harassing the mother for many years, and now it is time to repay the debt."
"This is power."
"You have the authority and enough people at your disposal. If you want to do something, just move your mouth, and someone will do it properly. Whoever dares to disobey your own will can kill the other party at will."
"This is the most beautiful thing in the world, and it is also the most powerful poison. In it, no one can stop chasing power. The winner is king, and the loser will die."
Xie Mingxi's expression was indifferent and her voice was slightly cold.
"That's why you hate the harem so much!" Sheng Hong stared at Xie Mingxi's indifferent face: "Because you have been living that kind of life in your previous life."
Xie Mingxi did not deny: "Yes. Because of this, I particularly hate entering the palace. Back then, if you hadn't deliberately plotted against me and had not given me the will to marry me, I would never have been willing to marry into the Tian family as my daughter-in-law..."
As soon as he mentioned what happened that year, Sheng Hong, who was in the wrong, immediately coughed and changed the subject: "It's getting late, please order someone to pass on the food! I'm hungry after a busy day."
Xie Mingxi glanced at Sheng Hong with a half-smile but finally stopped talking.
After three months of pregnancy, Xie Mingxi's morning sickness stopped and her appetite was a little better than before.
Xie Mingxi ate deliciously, and Sheng Hong was particularly happy to see it. He diligently served Xie Mingxi a bowl of piled dishes: "Eat as much as you like, don't starve your precious daughter."
Xianghui and others listened and smiled knowingly.
His Highness talks about his precious daughter, which is quite disgusting. It can be seen from this that Sheng Hong really likes his daughter and really hopes that Xie Mingxi will get a daughter in one fell swoop.
"In a few days, it will be the Crown Prince Ceremony of Brother Three Emperors." The Seventh Prince's Mansion never had the rule of "no talking during eating and no talking at bedtime", and Sheng Hong was used to casually gossiping while eating.
Xie Mingxi nodded slightly: "The Queen's grandmother's illness has improved, and it is indeed not appropriate to postpone the prince's enthronement ceremony any longer."
…
Sheng Hong and Xie Mingxi were right as they expected. At the next day's court meeting, the newly appointed Minister of Rites issued a memorial advising that a formal ceremony to establish the crown prince should be held as soon as possible.
After Yue Shangshu reported illness and returned home, his condition did not improve, but became increasingly serious. Yue Shangshu's eldest son had no choice but to submit a memorial on his father's behalf, claiming that his father was ill and had to retire.
The affairs of the Ministry of Rites are so complicated that they cannot be separated from a Shangshu.
Emperor Jianwen approved Yue Shangshu's official appointment and appointed the former right minister of the Ministry of Rites as Shangshu.
As a result, the position of Right Minister of Rites became vacant again. I don't know how many people targeted this vacancy and secretly exerted their efforts. In the end, the position of Right Minister fell to Xie Jun.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the father-in-law of the third prince who intends to support the seventh prince.
For the Third Prince to successfully become the Crown Prince, the Seventh Prince must have contributed a lot, and it is appropriate to reward him one or two times.
