Chapter 3267 Prescription
The Zhou family received the news in advance and waited at home early.
As soon as there was a noise at the door, everyone ran out to see what was happening. Even Old Madam Liu walked to the gate without paying any attention to the rules.
Normally, when the younger generation returns home, the elders should not go to the door to greet them, but the Zhou family doesn't care about that. Old Madam Liu also wanted her to be the first one to see her great-granddaughter, so she went there shamelessly.
Bai Jingxing was carried down from the carriage. Seeing such a large door, she couldn't help but look up to see the plaque. She pointed at the door happily and said, "I recognize it. Zhou——"
"Yes, Zhou's House," Zheng smiled and took her hand. "The second character is 'house'. We saw a lot of them along the way. Did you forget them again?"
"I haven't forgotten, Zhou's house!"
Little Qian also got out of the car and walked in with Zheng, hand in hand with Bai Jingxing. Old Zhou saw her delicate appearance and couldn't help but exclaimed, "How come she looks better than Manbao when he was a child?"
Old Madam Liu also thought that she was prettier than Bai Shan when she was a child, and her eyes were fixed on her and couldn't be taken away.
Zhou Silang followed in and saw that everyone was surrounding Bai Jingxing. Even her mother, Zhou Man, was squeezed out. He walked over to her and asked, "Aren't you pregnant? Why do you look thinner than before?"
Zhou Man touched his face and asked, "Really?"
Zhou Silang frowned and nodded.
Zhou Man waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll be able to raise it soon."
Zhou Silang raised his eyebrows.
Zhou Man explained, "I've almost finished my work. I'll take a few days off to rest."
She has already researched the ingredients of the elixir and figured out the right prescription. She had originally planned to go to the palace today to discuss it with Xiao Yuanzheng, but her daughter is back, and as a mother, she still has to welcome her.
So Zhou Man postponed her entry into the palace. She wanted to give her daughter a warm hug and comfort her little heart as she left her parents and went on a long journey for the first time. However, she couldn't even squeeze into the crowd.
Finally, everyone was almost satisfied, and Old Lady Liu took Bai Jingxing's hand and returned to the main hall. Only then was Zhou Man able to meet his daughter's eyes.
Bai Jingxing received many gifts and met many people. His mind was busy at the moment. Suddenly he saw his mother and ran towards her subconsciously.
Madam Liu was afraid that she would bump into Zhou Man's belly, but Zhou Man didn't wait for her to run over. He directly reached out and hugged her in his arms, tapping her nose and asked, "Do you miss mother?"
"Yes, I cried." Bai Jingxing tried hard to let Zhou Man look into her eyes. "Look, mother, are they red?"
Zhou Man looked at it carefully and shook his head, "I can't tell."
She patted her fat butt and said with a smile, "Okay, today we met great-grandmother, grandfather, and grandmother, as well as so many uncles, aunts, and cousins. Remember them first and go play with them later. Mother still has a few days to go. After she's done with these days, I'll take you to see Dabaoer and take you around the capital, okay?"
Bai Jingxing hugged her neck tightly and said, "Mother, can I sleep with you tonight?"
"Sure," Zhou Man agreed without hesitation, "From now on you can sleep with mother, as long as you don't mind mother sleeping late, hehehe..."
Madam Liu looked at the mother and daughter helplessly, glanced at the sky outside, and urged her, "Don't you still have to go to the palace? You haven't reported for duty yet today."
"Oh," Zhou Man put little Bai Jingxing on the ground, touched her head and said, "Listen to grandma at home. If you have anything, go to grandma and aunt. Mother is going to the government office first."
Little Bai Jingxing was already used to it. Her parents' main job every day was to go to the government office to make money so that she could have money to buy delicious food and toys. So she waved her hand obediently, "Mom, please come back soon."
Zhou Man rubbed her head again, ruffling her hair before leaving.
The emperor did not attend court today because Zhou Man went to the palace yesterday to give him an antidote injection. Since the emperor had taken antidote pills with medicine added during this period, Zhou Man gave him two more injections. Even the emperor could not help but groan in pain.
After the poisonous blood was discharged, his vitality was greatly damaged and he felt tired, so he handed over the affairs of state to the prince and did not attend court.
When Zhou Man arrived at the Imperial Hospital, Dean Xiao was still accompanying the emperor in the Taiji Hall and had not returned yet.
Zhou Man waited for half an hour and then went to the Taiji Hall to look for someone.
She thought that Xiao Yuan was lecturing on medical classics to the emperor, but it turned out that he was playing chess with the emperor, which suddenly made her feel bored.
The emperor also felt that playing chess with Xiao Yuanzheng was boring. Seeing Zhou Man, he immediately dropped the chess piece in his hand and waved, "Mr. Zhou is here? Come, come, come and take a look at the game between Xiao Yuanzheng and me."
Zhou Man walked forward and took a look. After comparing, she became happy. With this chess skill, she could definitely win.
She rubbed her hands together, "Your Majesty, how about I play a game with you?"
The emperor shook his head. "Playing chess with you imperial physicians is not interesting at all. It would be better to play with Lord Yin and Old Lord Tang. What are you doing in the palace?"
During this period of time, Zhou Man has been locking himself up at home to study elixirs. If Xiao Yuanzheng had not come to report the progress to him from time to time, he would almost think that Zhou Man was sleeping at home.
However, after taking a look at her, the emperor found that she was much thinner than when she first returned to Beijing, so he sighed, knowing that she had not slacked off.
Zhou Man: "Your Majesty, I have prepared a prescription for the antidote, so I came to the palace to discuss it with Xiao Yuanzheng."
Zhou Man had developed the recipe for the elixir of immortality a few days ago, but the antidote was not so easy to come by, so the emperor thought he would have to wait for a while.
The emperor sat up straighter and pointed to a chair opposite him, saying, "Let's discuss it."
He looked like he wanted to sit in on the discussion, not caring whether he could understand it or not.
Zhou Man took out the antidote prescription and showed it to Xiao Yuanzheng. Xiao Yuanzheng was a little nervous being stared at by the emperor, and it took him a while to get into the mood.
This prescription was not figured out by Zhou Man alone. When she was mixing the medicine, if she had any questions, she would go to Xiao Yuanzheng to ask and listen to his suggestions, but she would consult Teacher Mo more often.
It was also because of their help that we were able to match it so quickly.
Xiao Yuanzheng deduced for a while and frowned. There were several combinations of herbs that he had never seen before.
If you have any questions, ask them. Zhou Man explained to him and took out other manuscripts. "There are three combinations. I think this prescription should be the best."
Xiao Yuan was watching silently and asked, "Soup recipe?"
"That's right," Zhou Man said, "Take it for three days and see how it goes. The effect will determine whether to take a decoction or pills."
Zhou Man paused and looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, I request that I personally prepare the medicine."
"Why?"
Zhou Man said: "Two of the herbs need to be added later, and we need to manage the timing, so I want to come in person."
At this point, she smiled and said, "I have never boiled medicine for Your Majesty before, so I will give it a try this time. I hope Your Majesty will not despise me."
Good night
