Chapter 1422 spread out
The Crown Princess blushed profusely. Manbao was not a fool. He turned his head and glanced at the Crown Prince who was laughing non-stop. Manbao guessed that the injury was caused by the Crown Princess.
I didn’t expect that the Crown Princess, who looked so gentle, could actually hurt the Crown Prince. She is truly a role model for our generation.
Manbao did not mention the matter again, but said to the prince who had moved the needle with a quick laugh: "Your Highness, if you laugh again, I will have to do it again."
The prince tried hard to hold back his laughter.
Since he was allowed to have sex for the first time, the prince no longer abstained from sex, but he did not indulge in it either. He basically rested with the princess.
There are no real secrets in the palace, especially the East Palace which is being watched by so many people.
Within a few days, the news of the prince calling for water at night gradually spread out of the East Palace, and the first to know about it were the emperor and the empress.
The two of them did not ask the prince, nor did they summon Zhou Man, but hope was ignited in their hearts, and their appetites improved every day.
I was very nervous and kept staring at Donggong secretly.
Not to mention the emperor, even the empress couldn't help but worship Buddha in private. The emperor even donated a large sum of money directly to the Huguo Temple, hoping that the Buddha could bless the prince.
When Manbao learned about this, he was being led out of the palace by Eunuch Wu. Perhaps because the atmosphere in the East Palace was good recently, he smiled more often.
He wasn't supposed to see her off today, but he happened to be going out to the Eastern Palace on business, so he gave Manbao a ride and had a chat with her along the way.
He specifically mentioned the reactions of the Emperor and the Empress in order to tell Zhou Man that the Emperor and the Empress attached great importance to this matter. If the Crown Princess could really become pregnant, she would have accomplished a great feat.
But Manbao was concerned about, "Your Majesty, why do you always only worship Buddha? You should worship all of them. That way, if this one doesn't work, the other one will work."
Eunuch Wu whispered, "If you are so insincere, wouldn't that be disrespectful to the Buddha? If the Buddha knew, he would blame you."
Man Bao thought for a moment and said, "Not really. I like stewed chicken, but I also like stewed lamb. As long as they taste good, why should I choose just one?"
She said, "Buddhism and Taoism, even Legalism and Confucianism, and the other hundreds of schools of thought are the same. If what they say is right, then use it. Why would you believe in only one? Isn't it enough if it works?"
Eunuch Wu said he didn't understand.
Manbao took the opportunity to complain because she felt that the emperor had started a trend and the Huguo Temple was very lively.
But not only is the Huguo Temple a bit far from where they live, but something happened when they went there last time, which shows that it is not very auspicious. However, the Taoist temples in the capital are not as lively as the Buddhist temples, and Manbao likes lively places.
She felt that the emperor should treat everyone equally. Since she had gone to the Huguo Temple to donate incense money, she might as well go to the Taoist temple to perform a ritual.
The two chatted as they reached the palace gate. The carriage that usually took Manbao there was there, but the driver was not there. Manbao glanced at the group of people behind Eunuch Wu and waved generously, saying, "Eunuch Wu, you go ahead and do your work. I'll wait here for a while."
Eunuch Wu frowned slightly, "Where did this person go?"
Manbao didn't care, "People have three urgent needs, maybe he went to relieve himself."
Eunuch Wu waited a little, but seeing that no one had arrived, he still had work to do, so he said with a smile, "Then, Doctor Zhou, please wait a moment. I'll let this palace maid stay and keep you company."
"No, no, leave them to me. What will you do if you are short of manpower? I am not bored. I can talk to the guards."
The guards guarding the palace gate said: ...
Manbao was used to going in and out of the palace, so Eunuch Wu was not worried. Seeing that she insisted, he smiled and took people away.
Manbao waited for a while after he left, and then the coachman came.
He apologized repeatedly, bent down to let Manbao get into the car, and drove out of the palace after passing the inspection.
Manbao felt that his face was a little pale. Most of the time, he was the one who picked her up when she entered and left the palace. She knew that he was from the East Palace, and the two of them were a little familiar with each other.
So she lifted the curtain and asked him, "I see sweat on your forehead, your face is pale, and your lips are colorless. What's wrong?"
The driver quickly said guiltily that he was fine.
But when he glanced at the medicine box beside her, he hesitated again.
After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "Doctor Zhou, what if the diarrhea doesn't stop? I have a fellow villager who lives with me, and he seems to have contracted an epidemic these past two days and has been having diarrhea."
Manbao stared at him, and seeing that he was sweating profusely, he confirmed what he was thinking.
She had previously used palace maids to teach Liu Yinu and others in the palace, and only then did she know that there were many taboos in the palace. One of them was that the servants could not get sick, especially epidemic diseases.
Once you have similar symptoms, regardless of whether you are ill or not, you must be moved to the epidemic prevention center first.
At that time, the supply of medicine was limited, and the palace was full of nobles, so they could not afford to take the risk.
Manbao frowned. If it was an epidemic, he might harm others if he stayed in the palace.
But even powerful palace maids might die if they were moved to the quarantine center, let alone palace maids of such low status, who would basically be dead if they went there.
Manbao rolled up the curtain and whispered, "Let me see."
She didn't expose him, nor did she continue what he said.
The coachman hesitated, but when he met Manbao's bright eyes, he slowed down the carriage and let it move slowly along the lane. Then he rolled up his sleeves and extended his hand to Manbao.
Manbao took his pulse, closed his eyes and listened carefully. After a while, he frowned and said, "You don't have an epidemic. It seems like you've eaten something bad."
Manbao frowned and asked, "Have you been eating a cold diet lately? I think you ate something laxative, that's why you have diarrhea."
The driver asked stupidly, "What is xiali?"
"Things like croton and senna will give you diarrhea if you eat them."
The driver shook his head repeatedly, "How dare we eat something like this?"
Isn't this just throwing your own life away?
But he quickly realized that he was afraid that he had been harmed.
But why?
He was just a coachman who usually had to clean the corridor. He did hard work, but he never offended anyone.
Manbao had already opened the medicine box and sat directly on the shaft with him. "Come, the road is relatively flat. Slow down and I will give you a few injections."
These needles were all inserted into the arm. As Manbao was inserting them, he said, "There are two sets of acupuncture techniques. If you can come back later, when you get to Changqing Lane, you can stay for three quarters of an hour. I will give you a few more needles in your stomach. This way you will heal faster."
When the driver heard this, he was very grateful.
Manbao gave him acupuncture on both of his hands, then asked him to sit aside and took the reins to drive the cart.
The driver was shocked when he saw this and said quickly, "How dare we let Doctor Zhou drive the car?"
Manbao said nonchalantly, "You can't move now, don't worry, I can drive."
She had learned it seriously, although she didn't learn it as well as Bai Shanhao, but the road was so flat and the lanes were planned, so all she had to do was slow down. What was so difficult about it?
