Xia Lin arrived at the Imperial Hospital, found Xia Wuqie, and said, "Head of the Imperial Hospital, His Majesty has summoned you."
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Xia Wuqi took the medicine box and left the Imperial Hospital with Xia Lin.
He walked quickly all the way to the Xianyang Palace.
Xia Lin walked into the hall and reported, "Your Majesty, Dean Xia is here."
"Yeah, Xuan."
Ying Zheng didn't even raise his head, his black eyes fixed on the bamboo slips in his hand.
Xia Wuqie walked into the hall carrying a medicine box and saluted Ying Zheng.
"His Majesty."
"Um."
Ying Zheng raised his eyes to look at Xia Wuqie, "Xia Qing, thank you for your hard work yesterday."
“It’s not hard.”
Xia Wuqie said, "A doctor has a kind heart. You are not only a patient, but also someone who has made great contributions to our Great Qin."
"It is only natural for me to go and treat the patient, but..."
"Sir, you don't need my medical attention. I'm a little disappointed."
"I rested in the inn for a day, and it really wasn't hard at all."
Xia Wuqie smiled bitterly.
He originally thought that he would meet that gentleman on this trip and see what he looked like.
What a pity.
He waited downstairs at the inn for a whole day, but never heard His Majesty call him up to see the doctor.
From what Your Majesty said, the gentleman brought the medicine himself.
The high fever went away after taking the medicine, so he was no longer needed.
It really made him feel very regretful.
I was so close to you, but never got to see you.
What a pity, what a pity.
"Today, I'll have to trouble Mr. Xia to prepare some herbal tea to relieve cough and soothe the throat."
Ying Zheng said, "When I leave the palace later, I will bring it to you, sir, and ask you to make some for yourself."
"When I came back yesterday, the fever had subsided, but the cough hadn't stopped."
"I am worried about your throat."
After hearing what Ying Zheng said, Xia Wuqie quickly said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"I will return to the Imperial Hospital immediately to prepare the medicinal tea. I will make sure it is ready before Your Majesty leaves the palace!"
Ying Zheng nodded, "Okay, thank you, Xia Qing."
After Xia Wuqi bowed, he left the hall and went back to prepare the medicinal tea.
Ying Zheng turned his head to look at Xia Lin and gave him instructions.
"Go to the kitchen and call Xiang Heliang."
"promise."
Xia Lin responded and hurried out to the kitchen.
Your Majesty summoned so many people when he left the palace this time.
Just now, His Majesty summoned Xia Wuqie, the head of the Xia Court, and ordered him to prepare some medicinal tea.
It was intended to be brought out of the palace to the gentleman in the inn.
Although he had never met this gentleman, he had heard about it from His Majesty several times.
I don’t know what this gentleman looks like.
Her magical powers are so great that even His Majesty pays special attention to her!
While thinking, he trotted into the kitchen.
In the kitchen, many palace servants were wearing aprons and busying around.
Somebody makes the fire, some cuts the vegetables, some chops the meat, some stews the soup, some washes and cleans...
As the boss of the kitchen, Xiang Heliang owns a piece of territory of his own.
He was standing in front of a small stove, stirring something in a pot with a spoon in his hand.
The other hand held a lid.
Xiang Heliang scooped some of the contents of the jar with a spoon and put it into a bowl next to him.
Then I tasted it.
He frowned and tasted it.
"Tsk, no, it's still a little off..."
This was the scene Xia Lin saw when he came in.
"Eunuch Xia."
When the palace servants in the kitchen saw Xia Lin, they quickly put down their work and saluted him.
Xia Lin waved his hand and said, "Well, go and do your thing."
"promise."
The palace servants continued to work on the unfinished work.
Xia Lin quickly walked to Xiang Heliang and said, "Sir Xiang, His Majesty has summoned you."
Um?
Your Majesty's call?
Xiang Heliang was stunned, put down the spoon in his hand and asked Xia Lin.
"Your Majesty, are you leaving the palace today?"
In the past, His Majesty would only summon him when he was about to leave the palace.
Let him make something sweet that is not sweet.
I think it will be the same this time.
Sure enough, Xia Lin said, "Yes."
"Please come with us quickly, sir, so His Majesty won't have to wait anxiously."
"Okay, let's go."
Xiang Heliang did not delay and called his apprentice over to keep an eye on what was cooking on the stove.
He followed Xia Lin out of the kitchen.
After arriving at the entrance of the main hall, he heard Xiang Heliang being summoned and strode into the hall.
"His Majesty."
"Um."
Ying Zheng raised his eyes to look at Xiang Heliang and asked.
"How's your research on food these past few days?"
Xiang Heliang said, "Your Majesty, I have recently developed a lotus seed soup."
"This soup is sweet but not greasy, with a light lotus fragrance."
"After serving, sprinkle a little osmanthus on it. The two aromas blend together, and the fragrance lingers in your mouth after one bite."
"I think you will like it!"
This was a dessert he had worked so hard on and stayed up all night for two nights to make.
He had been researching another dessert early this morning, but no matter how he mixed it, it was always too sweet.
He hasn't found a better solution yet.
This non-sweet dessert really tests his skills.
Hearing Xiang Heliang's words, Ying Zheng nodded slightly.
"Okay, go prepare some lotus seed soup quickly, and make a few other warming and nourishing foods suitable for those after a high fever."
"Send it over when it's done."
"promise."
Xiang Heliang responded quickly.
High fever?
Are you sick, sir?
He lowered his head and left the hall, then hurried back to the kitchen to prepare food.
After a high fever, some things cannot be eaten, so he has to choose carefully.
