At the gate of Yongshou Palace, Imperial Doctor Zhang hurriedly took a few steps back and turned around, pretending that he was not peeping.
He came with two other imperial doctors to check the empress dowager's pulse.
They said, how could it be so smooth to treat the empress dowager? Even their Imperial Hospital encountered obstacles everywhere, and they didn't know how much bad luck they had caused to the empress dowager.
This girl must have been driven out by the Queen Mother!
"Doctor Su, take care."
The eunuch in charge escorted the person to the door.
Su Xiaoxiao said, "Eunuch Cheng, please stay. Later, please send someone to the first hall to get the medicine. I will have someone secure the herbs."
The eunuch in charge smiled and said, "Thank you for troubling me, Doctor Su."
Doctor Zhang and others looked at each other in bewilderment.
Did they hear it right?
People from Yongshou Palace are going to the First Hall to get medicine? Wait, aren't all the medicines for the empress dowager filled in the Imperial Pharmacy? How could they possibly use medicine from outside?
No, that's not the point.
The point is that the Queen Mother actually agreed to take the medicine?
Everyone was shocked as if struck by lightning and looked at Su Xiaoxiao in disbelief.
Su Xiaoxiao reminded: "In addition, the medicinal food was prepared by me personally, which will help the Queen Mother's condition."
The eunuch in charge said amiably, "I will remind the Queen Mother to eat."
"What's going on?" Princess Jingning walked forward and asked.
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, "The Queen Mother is very kind, very gentle, and very cooperative!"
Princess Jingning: Are you sure we know a queen mother? ...
The news that Su Xiaoxiao treated the empress dowager spread like wildfire.
More and more patients came to see the hospital, and a lot of Renxintang’s business was taken away.
Shopkeeper Wu stood at the door, looking outside the first hall, where Shopkeeper Sun and others were excitedly introducing Su Xiaoxiao's abilities.
Shopkeeper Wu said angrily, "It's not cured yet, and they dare to say that! The master has cured so many nobles, but when has he ever publicized it?"
That’s the crux of the matter.
Hu Jiusheng was the imperial physician. He became famous from a high starting point, and it was nothing special for him to treat the nobles in the palace.
Su Xiaoxiao is different.
She is Qin Canglan's long-lost granddaughter. She grew up among the common people, suffered a lot of hardships, and her starting point could not be any lower.
If everyone's expectations of her were ranked from one to ten, her maximum would be one.
But she achieved ten, the contrast is jaw-dropping.
"It's not just the Queen Mother. You know the Marquis of Zhenbei, right? His illness was also cured by our boss. If you don't believe me, go and ask around. There's also the Third Prince and Young Marquis Jing from the Marquis of Weiwu Mansion. Our boss has cured them all!"
Shopkeeper Sun already knew Su Xiaoxiao's background and was determined not to miss any opportunity to make a name for himself.
The only person he didn't mention was Princess Jingning. It was Su Xiaoxiao who told him to do that.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't want Princess Jingning's appearance to become a topic of conversation.
Mr. Hu was so angry that he jumped up and down, glared at Shopkeeper Wu and said, "You better think of a solution! If this continues, our Renxin Hall will be robbed of all its patients!"
Shopkeeper Wu scratched his head and said, "I think so, I think so!" - Lihua Lane.
Wei Ting came here today.
He used to come at night and rarely showed up during the day.
The three little ones looked at him with a strange look on their faces.
"Call me daddy," he said.
Xiao Hu put his hands on his hips, stamped his feet, and said seriously: "Do you still remember our dad? You do nothing all day long, and never come home. Mom is going to die! Is there any father like you?"
The little guy speaks much more fluently than before.
Wei Ting said with amusement and anger: "I came at night, and you guys were asleep."
Xiaohu folded his arms: "Humph, I don't believe it!"
Wei Ting laughed out loud and rubbed his head: "If you don't believe me, I am also your father. Come on, call me daddy!"
Xiaohu raised his chin and said, "That's hard to say. If mom doesn't want you anymore, Xiaofu can find another father!"
Wei Ting: “…”
When Su Xiaoxiao got home, Wei Ting was sorting clothes in the house.
"You're here. Huh? Do you want to stay?"
If I don't stay here, my son will have to find a new father.
There were her hair and fragrance on the pillow.
Without waiting for Su Xiaoxiao to speak, he continued, "There's no need to be so reminded of the past."
Su Xiaoxiao: What’s the matter with suddenly wanting to kick you out?
The person who was most happy when Wei Ting came was Su Ergou, because he missed his brother-in-law very much.
Of course, there is another reason, Su Cheng is not here, otherwise he would probably be the happiest one.
"Where's Dad?" Wei Ting asked.
"I went to the horse farm to practice martial arts." Su Xiaoxiao said.
Qin Canglan did not relax his training on Su Cheng just because Su Cheng defeated Qin Jiang. On the contrary, he became more strict and worked harder, as if he was anxious to pass on all he had learned in his life to Su Cheng.
"Did you go to the palace to treat the Queen Mother?" Wei Ting asked.
Su Xiaoxiao hummed: "Is this why you came here in broad daylight?"
Without waiting for Wei Ting to speak, she raised an eyebrow and said, "You don't have to worry about me so much."
Wei Ting: “…”
Wei Ting took a book and sat down by the window.
Su Xiaoxiao opened the medicine box, grabbed his bandaged right hand, and told him about the secret decree given by the late emperor to Qin Canglan and the old marquis.
Upon hearing this, Wei Ting pondered, "The late emperor also issued a secret decree to my grandfather, asking him to support the King of Nanyang to succeed to the throne."
"Two secret decrees..." Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin, "It is impossible for the late emperor to establish two new emperors at the same time. Which secret decree is the real one?"
"mother!"
Xiaohu ran in, "Four Axes wants to eat Candy Fortune?"
Wei Ting asked, "Who are the Four Tigers?"
"Little brother." Xiaohu said, "Four months old."
Wei Ting's body trembled! During the few days when he was away from home, the little guys even had younger brothers? ! "Four tigers can't eat it." Su Xiaoxiao said.
Xiaohu rolled his eyes and said, "Well, Dafu wants to eat Tang Fulu!"
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but ask, "Only Dahu wants to eat?"
Xiaohu thought for a moment and said, "Erfu wants to eat it too!"
Su Xiaoxiao teased him, "Then only Xiaohu doesn't want to eat?"
Xiaohu blinked his eyes cutely: "But if mommy insists on buying it for Xiao Axe, Xiao Axe can eat it too."
Su Xiaoxiao laughed.
Little devil!
After changing Wei Ting's medicine, Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting went out together to buy candied haws for the three little ones.
In order to avoid being recognized, Wei Ting wore a jade mask.
Even with his face covered, this man was still as pure as jade.
Su Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and also put on a veil.
Wei Ting looked at her unique chubby figure and said: I don’t think there is much point in you wearing a veil.
The two spent half a tael of silver to buy six strings of candied haws.
"The price of sugar has gone up again." Su Xiaoxiao said, "It used to be 40 to 50 cents a string."
The two walked back.
Wei Ting said: "The war has started in the southwest."
Su Xiaoxiao was surprised: "Did they really fight?"
Wei Ting said calmly: "It's just a group of rebels. We have already wiped them out. It's just that the southwest is rich in sugar, so the price of sugar has been affected a little."
Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "I see."
Since ancient times, wars have caused great harm to civilians.
Wei Ting added: "Fortunately, this time it did not affect the salt transport in the southwest."
Sugar is not a necessity for ordinary people, but salt is. If the price of salt rises, who knows what kind of chaos it will bring.
Su Xiaoxiao listened carefully.
Suddenly , a carriage came straight towards her!
