Xia Zhiliao looked at the man's expression and her surprise grew. Could it be that he came all the way here just for his mother's matter?
Ling He seemed to understand what she meant, nodding and making "hmm" sounds.
Xia Zhiliao smiled, turned around and went back to the house.
Less than half a month later, in the capital, inside the imperial palace.
"Doctor Guo, how is my mother? Does she really have diabetes?" Emperor Shunde asked with a sullen face, glancing at Wen Heng who was standing in the corner, his disdain for him obvious.
Imperial Doctor Guo wiped his sweat and said, "Your Majesty, it is diabetes, but the Queen Mother is in good health and there is nothing serious. I will prescribe the medicine right away..."
Emperor Shunde frowned, and seeing Wen Heng's calm face, he turned and asked, "Why didn't you find it when I checked Ping's pulse last month?"
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's diabetes has just emerged. I..."
"Go and write a prescription quickly, mother. Doctor Guo is the best in the Imperial Hospital. This disease can definitely be cured!" Emperor Shunde comforted his old mother.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "No need. Someone has already prescribed a prescription for me. My thirst was diagnosed by that person. I feel very well after using her medicine."
"Grandmother, most of the prescriptions outside the palace are folk remedies, and they don't understand your body and haven't even checked your pulse. You should use them with caution."
Wen Heng glanced at the person who spoke, it was the Eighth Prince Wen Yan, "I am not targeting you, but the Royal Grandmother's phoenix body is more important."
Wen Heng is the same age as Wen Yan, and is even two months older than Wen Yan. Logically, he should be the eighth prince. Unfortunately, even after he came back, the previous ranking was not messed up, so his ranking was a bit awkward.
Wen Heng nodded, "Grandmother's health is naturally the most important thing."
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Heng'er is naturally concerned about me. He has just returned to the palace for a short time and noticed that there is something wrong with my daily diet and rest. He went to visit an expert without leaving the palace and learned that I have diabetes. He rushed back without stopping and even brought back the prescription. Your Majesty, Heng'er has made a great contribution this time. You must reward him well."
The Queen Mother patted Emperor Shunde's hand and said, "Heng'er is a good and filial child. After all, he is our royal blood. He can't be wrong."
Emperor Shunde frowned and motioned for Imperial Physician Guo to take the prescription and take a look.
The Queen Mother sighed but did not stop him.
Wen Heng remained calm, and the others were just waiting to see what would happen.
After reading the prescription, Doctor Guo took a deep breath.
Emperor Shunde glanced at Wen Heng coldly, as if he would settle the score with him later, "What's going on? Is it inappropriate?"
Doctor Guo shook his head, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it's not inappropriate, it's wonderful, I don't know..."
How many princes are there?
"Where did Your Highness get this recipe from?"
Wen Heng rewrote the recipe himself, otherwise Xia Zhiliao's handwriting would be laughed at by others. No, the little girl has to learn how to write. This won't work. Good handwriting is a sign of good appearance.
"It's a friend I met outside the palace!"
"Great, great, this person has great medical skills. This medicine may seem bold, but it is targeted at the symptoms of the empress dowager. Has this person really never seen the empress dowager?"
"No!" Wen Heng curled his lips. He knew that the little girl would not let him down.
The pride on his face was not because he had accomplished this, but because he was happy for the little girl.
Doctor Guo looked at the prescription, as well as the information about the Empress Dowager's daily routine and diet, and was amazed. He wanted to ask more questions, but he didn't dare to speak due to the occasion. He just stole a few glances at Wen Heng.
"Look, Imperial Doctor Guo has said so, so of course it's all right. Heng'er, this guy of yours..."
"Royal Grandmother!" Wen Heng interrupted.
The Queen Mother also reacted. Wen Heng repeatedly requested not to tell anyone what he had said to her, but this child actually trusted her and told her everything.
"Since this miracle doctor is a friend, she must be close to you. Bring her here for me to have a look, so that I can reward her in person."
The Queen Mother knew Xia Zhiliao, a little girl whose whole family was very kind to Wen Heng and helped her. She was also an excellent medical practitioner.
But the details are not very clear, but the girl must be very young to have such medical skills. The Queen Mother really wants to see it.
Wen Heng thought of Xia Zhiliao's resistance to the capital, and that he did not have deep roots in the capital and might not be able to protect her. This incident aroused the jealousy of others. If she came to the capital, she would definitely be targeted.
"Grandmother, my friend doesn't like crowds, I'm afraid...she can't come to the capital for the time being."
"That's a really good child." The Queen Mother was old, so no one thought much of it when she called him a child.
"You don't even want Ai's reward?"
"Grandmother, if you want to reward someone, you should give it to the real hero this time!" The Ninth Prince Wen Chao looked at Wen Heng, "It was Brother Heng who worked tirelessly to run around. If you want to reward someone, you should give him the reward."
Wen Heng had a blank expression on his face. How could he not know that Wen Chao wanted to make him the target of public criticism and make the Crown Prince and several princes, who were already unhappy, regard him as their rival.
"Chao'er is right. I will certainly reward you."
"Grandmother, I don't want any reward. Your good health is the greatest reward for me." Wen Heng said.
Since you can't avoid it, then don't hide.
Wen Chao curled his lips with contempt in his heart. A bastard, without the support of his mother's family, he only gained some face by currying favor with the Royal Grandmother. It was a pity that his father didn't like him and the Royal Grandmother was old. How long could he enjoy the glory?
"Brother Heng's filial piety really touched me, my grandson. We should all learn from him."
Wen Heng was not to be outdone, "Brother Chao, you are joking. I believe that everyone has a filial heart. As long as we keep the Royal Grandmother in our hearts, we will naturally learn it. There is no need to learn."
I want to learn, but can you learn it?
The Empress Dowager looked at the boys and said, "Alright, you are all good children, and each of you is very filial. I know what is going on. An has been invited, and I don't have anything serious to do, so go back."
She glanced at Emperor Shunde and said, "Your Majesty, please stay."
Emperor Shunde nodded. He originally wanted to leave, mainly because he knew clearly what his mother would say to him if he stayed.
After everyone left, the Queen Mother looked at her son and said, "Your Majesty, Heng'er is your flesh and blood after all. He is not the one who made the mistake. Why do you have to vent your anger on a child? Besides, if there is any mistake, it is you who made it."
"Mother, he has returned to the palace."
Emperor Shunde was a little impatient, but he could only listen to his mother, so he picked up a piece of dessert and said, "Well, the desserts in the Queen Mother's Palace are good, but are they made in the small kitchen?"
The Queen Mother sighed, then smiled again, "How can the small kitchen make this? It's not made by the imperial kitchen either. This is what Heng'er brought back for me. Isn't it delicious?"
