Mu Wanqing touched his little head and said, "Prince, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you. This is a treatment that even the emperor doesn't have."

She did not comfort him, but spoke as usual, in a soft tone.

The eldest prince was groggy and had no appetite. He uttered two words with difficulty, "I don't want to eat."

Mu Wanqing nodded with a smile, "Okay, then I'll be free to play."

The imperial physician at the side looked at her with an incomprehensible expression, "Princess Qingping, the eldest prince needs to avoid certain foods. He cannot eat fish, meat, chicken, or duck..."

Mu Wanqing rolled her eyes as she listened, "Then what else can we eat? Sick people need to eat and drink well to enhance their immunity."

"You guys hurry up and treat him well. Something is wrong with the eldest prince, haha."

She left two maids to guard the eldest prince and inform her immediately if anything happened.

She took the two maids to the small kitchen, disinfected, washed their hands, rolled up her sleeves and started to get busy.

She soaked the rice first, took out the lean meat and cut it into shreds, added seasonings and shredded ginger to marinate, and cut the preserved eggs into dices. Her movements were quick and orderly.

First, boil the rice with water. On the other side, Mu Wanqing quickly took out a small jar of pickles from her private collection, took out the pickled sour beans, and fried them with diced meat and dried chilies. The aroma was so fragrant that it attracted many people to come over secretly.

This smells so good.

She looked at the remaining ingredients, mixed a dish of black fungus, ham and cucumber, and made a few nutritious vegetable pancakes.

The maidservant was helping while swallowing her saliva. She thought her master was a jack of all trades. She knew how to do everything, even cooking.

Cook the porridge until it becomes thick, then add the preserved eggs, lean meat and chopped vegetables in turn, stirring constantly. Add only a little salt for seasoning. After turning off the heat, add two drops of sesame oil. It is perfect.

She took a small portion of each, and it added up to a lot.

Mu Wanqing walked in fully armed again, and everyone's eyes looked over and fell on the tray in the hands of the maid behind her.

The aroma of the lean meat porridge was so strong that it aroused everyone's appetite.

The drowsy eldest prince sniffed his nose involuntarily.

Mu Wanqing walked to the bedside, "Prince, get up and eat."

In fact, the eldest prince had not eaten properly all day and even vomited out the porridge cooked for him.

He didn't feel hungry, but when he smelled the delicious food, his stomach started to growl.

The eldest prince could not open his eyes. He was picked up by someone. He opened his mouth and took a bite of the mixed vegetable. It was slightly sour and spicy, which successfully whetted his appetite.

The century egg and lean meat porridge is soft and sticky, thick and fragrant, melts in your mouth, and is so delicious that it will make you cry.

After taking a bite, he opened his mouth hurriedly and finished a small bowl and half a vegetable cake in a short while.

After eating, his complexion looked much better and he broke out in a sweat.

The palace servants carefully changed the eldest prince into clean clothes. He tried to keep his eyes open and said, "It's delicious. Thank you, sister."

Mu Wanqing felt sad and amused. She touched his forehead and it seemed that his body temperature had dropped a little. Was it an illusion? "Go to sleep."

His head tilted and he fell into sleep again. Sleeping is also a process of recovery.

Mu Wanqing had a small table placed next to the couch by the window, with all the four treasures of the study.

She was concentrating on writing, and from time to time she looked up at the eldest prince not far away.

Several imperial doctors had been discussing for a long time, going over and over again about a prescription.

Finally, they came to Mu Wanqing, "Princess, we have discussed several prescriptions. Which one do you think is more suitable?"

Mu Wanqing looked at them coldly, like a slippery old fox.

The imperial doctors are the smartest of the smart, and they are still playing tricks even at this time.

"You are the imperial physicians. Prescribing medicines to treat illnesses is your job. Why are you asking me, a person who knows nothing about medicine?"

An imperial physician disagreed, "We thought that since everyone has their own ideas, it would be better to let you make the decision."

Mu Wanqing sneered and said directly, "Being the boss? Are you trying to shirk responsibility?"

She knew this would happen, and the emperor was also worried that something like this would happen.

"But you have to face the facts. I will be fine no matter what happens, because I am useful to the court."

She raised her chin and pointed at several imperial doctors, her eyes and eyebrows were extremely cold, "But what about you? As imperial doctors, if you can't cure the eldest prince, then what's the use of you? Everyone still remembers what the emperor said, it's a golden word, there is no possibility of regret."

If these imperial doctors fail to cure the eldest prince, they will be buried with him.

"Your performance determines the fate of your nine clans."

When there are more people, people's minds become more complicated, but selfish thoughts are not allowed at this time.

The doctors looked unhappy, and one of them asked unhappily, "What about you? What's the point of coming in?"

"Supervise, take charge, and stabilize people's hearts." Mu Wanqing's aura was fully open, powerful and cold. "In other words, the fate of your nine clans depends on my thoughts. I can destroy a family with just one word."

The imperial doctors' faces changed drastically. She was right, she would not die no matter what, but they couldn't say for sure.

Mu Wanqing reminded calmly, "Now is the time to work together and use all means to save your life. Even if you don't want to live, you have to consider your family."

The imperial doctors had little contact with Mu Wanqing and had only heard of her reputation, but when they got close to her, they discovered that Mu Wanqing was terrifyingly strong.

He is indeed a powerful minister who can make two generations of kings look at him differently.

Mu Wanqing changed the subject and said, "Of course, if the eldest prince can survive safely, everyone will be rewarded with ten thousand taels."

She uses both kindness and severity, using both sticks and candies.

The eyes of the imperial doctors lit up. Who could resist the temptation of money? "You pay?"

Mu Wanqing glanced at them calmly and said, "Your Majesty, please come out. I don't want to have a reputation of winning people's hearts."

The treasury is full, so this little money can be taken out.

Well, the imperial doctors have given up their little thoughts, and they can’t rely on anyone else anyway.

In order to save life and for money, I fought hard.

From then on, the twelve imperial doctors were divided into three shifts, with four people in each shift, to guard the eldest prince 24 hours a day.

The prescription was voted on by everyone, and Mu Wanqing took notes and kept them on file for the emperor to see.

In this way, prescriptions were changed one after another.

However, the eldest prince's illness kept recurring, with his fever going down and then rising again, which made everyone very worried.

Mu Wanqing would prepare three meals a day plus afternoon tea and a midnight snack for the eldest prince, and each meal would be different.

It mainly consists of light meals with some delicious snacks.

The eldest prince felt uncomfortable all over. Sometimes he convulsed in pain, sometimes he fainted from the pain, and sometimes he had difficulty breathing. The imperial doctors tried their best and helped him get through countless difficulties.

It was okay when he was unconscious, but it was very difficult when he was awake.

At this time, Mu Wanqing would sit beside the bed and tell him stories, picking out the stories of chivalrous knights that young men loved most. The plots were full of twists and turns, ups and downs, vivid and exciting, which made the eldest prince listen attentively and distracted.

When the eldest prince felt a little better, he looked at her blankly, "Sister, are you afraid of getting infected?"

"I'm scared." Mu Wanqing touched his forehead. It seemed that his fever had subsided. Three days had passed. She didn't know how long he would have to endure.

The eldest prince was a little confused, "Then why did you come in? Logically speaking, father would not want you to take risks."

"I volunteered. I wanted you to live." This was what Mu Wanqing really thought. "You always call me Sister Qingping. I just did what a sister should do."

"Sister." The eldest prince felt both sad and sweet, and a little happy. "Can I really survive?"

He was really scared, afraid of dying alone without any relatives around him.

But when she comes, she will cook delicious food for him, help him scold people, and make him happy. From now on, she will be his real sister.

Every time he opened his eyes, he could see her.

She may not know why she is so popular among children? He knows, because she is strong and gentle.

A strong yet gentle person whose attraction to children is fatal.

"Of course, if I say yes, it's fine. I, Princess Qingping, have done a lot of good things. The people have set up a longevity tablet for me. I am a person with golden light protecting me." Mu Wanqing said nonsense seriously, "With me here, the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Monsters dare not come."

A gleam of light flashed in the eldest prince's eyes, "Really?"

"Really." Mu Wanqing rolled her eyes, "Do you want to hear about the last time I was chased by an assassin for thousands of miles?"

The eldest prince's eyes brightened. "I asked you last time, but you didn't want to tell me."

Mu Wanqing never mentioned the assassination in public, and even to the emperor she only mentioned it briefly without elaborating.

She smiled and said, "I just don't want others to know how miserable I am. I want the eldest prince to think that I am always strong."

The eldest prince suddenly became alert and said, "I want to listen."

"Okay, that was my third assassination attempt..." Mu Wanqing said, and it was also the most dangerous one.

The eldest prince's curiosity was successfully aroused, and he completely forgot about his illness. "Ah, the third time? Let's talk about the first time first. I want to hear them one by one."

He knew that the opportunity was rare, and if he missed this one, there would be no next time.

Oh, you are quite greedy. Mu Wanqing pondered for a moment, "The first time I was assassinated was on the road to exile, when I first met your cousin. It was very dangerous at that time. The enemy's long sword chopped at my heart, and a long arrow flew over and knocked the opponent's sword away..."

She paused and just smiled.

The eldest prince's heart moved, "Is he my cousin?"

"Yes." Mu Wanqing spoke of that past event with a faint smile, many details were still vivid in her mind.

This part alone took her half an hour to tell. She was very good at telling stories, and they were so vivid that it seemed as if they were happening right before her eyes.

The eldest prince only then realized that the fate of Mu Wanqing and Du Shaoxuan started from that time, and his face turned red. "What about the second time?"

Mu Wanqing laughed, "I was a woman who disguised myself as a man and fooled people from all sides in the market. I made tens of millions of taels of silver and escaped unscathed. At that time, a fully armed army surrounded the inn where I was staying. I didn't have many people around me at the time, so I was alone and weak..."

Well, not only did the eldest prince listen with great interest and exclaim in amazement, but even the others were stunned.

Is this bloody and exciting story true?

The eldest prince listened adorably, "You fooled Commander Ji, knocked down his brother-in-law, and ran away. Hahaha, very funny."

He laughed so hard that his little face turned red, and he looked much more energetic.

"What's even more interesting is that later on, Commander Ji became my eldest brother's father-in-law." Mu Wanqing pointed at herself with a proud look on her face, "I helped to snatch this marriage."

This was too exciting. The eldest prince sat up quickly and said, "How did you do that? Tell me quickly."

"That's another story. It involves the King of Yan in Northern Chu and the King of Nanyuan in Xiwu. I stole the marriage from them." After arousing everyone's curiosity, Mu Wanqing stood up irresponsibly like a scumbag, "I'm hungry. I'm going to cook."

Everyone stared in anxiety, it is immoral to keep us hanging like this.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. "Princess Qingping, the doctor is here. He has cured the cowpox."

The author has something to say:

I’m afraid you’ll send me razor blades, so I don’t dare write that I’m dead, haha.
