Chapter 381 Artificial Bezoar Begins to Take Effect
As soon as Doctor Niu came in, he knelt down and chanted, "I, General Niu Gensheng, pay my respects to the emperor, long live the emperor..."
Fu Zhonghai interrupted him: "Forget it, look who this is?"
Niu Gensheng looked up and followed the direction Fu Zhonghai's finger was pointing, and was suddenly stunned.
"Shi Niang?"
Niu Shiniang pursed her lips, her eyes a little sour: "Dad..."
"Shi Niang, you..." Niu Gensheng looked at her belly in shock.
The emperor did not tell him the news that Niu Shiniang was pregnant.
Emperor Tianwu felt happy that his prank had succeeded.
"I didn't tell you on purpose."
"Shi Niang is pregnant. She is going to be a mother."
Niu Gensheng blurted out: "Whose seed?"
When this question was asked, everyone was stunned for a moment.
It's no secret that Ao Guangchun doesn't like Niu Shiniang.
But - how can a father ask his daughter like this? !
Zhan Yunfu knew what Niu Gensheng meant by asking this, and she bowed to him apologetically.
"This is your relative, right? Chun'er and Shi Niang got married, and you didn't come back..."
Zhan Yunfu briefly explained the matter, and Emperor Tianwu also supported her.
"Shi Niang is pregnant with Ning Yuanhou's child. You are her father and a doctor. If you help her take care of her, she will feel more at ease..."
Niu Gensheng breathed a sigh of relief: "I obey your command."
Emperor Tianwu arranged for Niu Gensheng to accompany Niu Shiniang down to have a private conversation between father and daughter.
When Niu Gensheng and his daughter were walking towards the back hall, they remembered that they had something else to do.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Emperor Tianwu raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"
Niu Gensheng took out a paper bag from his arms and handed it over with both hands.
Lu Daban stepped forward, took it and opened it.
A yellow object was wrapped inside.
Lu Daban was surprised: "This is..."
Emperor Tianwu had already seen it. His heart skipped a beat and he asked in surprise: "Artificial bezoar?"
Niu Gensheng nodded heavily: "Yes! This is artificial bezoar."
"Artificial bezoar has been successfully cultivated!"
Everyone was shocked: Artificial bezoar was created in such a short time?
Emperor Tianwu became curious: "How did it happen? Can you tell me?"
Niu Gensheng then began to explain it with words and gestures.
Excluding the professional part, to sum it up is: Niu Gensheng repeatedly pondered and experimented based on the information provided by Fu Chenan, and with sufficient manpower and abundant resources (Lao Niu), he finally succeeded.
It's just not stable yet.
Niu Gensheng was very confident: "...We are still exploring and trying our best to increase the probability of success..."
Thanks to reading the translated materials given by Fu Chenan many times, he knew everything about "probability".
Fu Zhonghai was overjoyed!
"Old Cow, you are my lucky star! Reward!"
Niu Gensheng suddenly became a sixth-rank official in the Ministry of Revenue.
My job is to be in charge of the research and development and production of artificial bezoar, but this position and title is a promotion...
Fu Zhonghai was afraid that Niu Gensheng would despise him, so he specifically told him: "When your artificial bezoar can be stably mass-produced, I will reward you again!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty..."
While expressing his gratitude, Niu Gensheng was thinking about how to improve efficiency further.
After eating and drinking, everyone went their separate ways.
Fu Zhonghai kept Zhan Yunfu: "Madam Zhan, please stay for a while."
When she entered the palace again, her mood was completely different from before. Zhan Yunfu felt her heart beating faster.
The main thing was that Fu Zhonghai looked at him with unclear eyes, and the heat in his eyes was like brewing magma.
After everyone else had left, Fu Zhonghai asked, "I only gave my in-law a sixth-rank official title. Do you mind that it's too low of an official title?"
Zhan Yunfu glared at him.
"What in-laws? He is my in-law, what does it have to do with you?"
"Your in-laws are my in-laws." Fu Zhonghai was very thick-skinned and spoke without hesitation.
Without waiting for Zhan Yunfu to refute, he interrupted directly: "Let me ask you, do you mind that Niu Gensheng's official position is too low?"
Zhan Yunfu was choked and paused before saying, "He is a veterinarian by training. It is only natural for you to reward him based on his merits. If you were to reward him based on his relatives, that would be unfair."
It means I'm quite satisfied.
Fu Zhonghai was also quite satisfied.
Zhan Yunfu is a person who is easily soft-hearted towards her own people.
As long as he grasped this point, he wouldn't be afraid of her turning against him.
"I think the Crown Princess is bored alone in the palace, why don't you bring Shi Niang in more often to keep her company?"
"It just so happens that there is Doctor Meng in the palace, so Old Niu can learn more medical skills from him. Chengji is also often in the palace..."
In short, just treat the palace as your own home.
Zhan Yunfu thought of Xiao Yingchun and couldn't help but smile.
She knew that Xiao Yingchun loved gossip.
Except for her, there is no other proper master in the harem now.
I heard that she was kidnapped some time ago. Now she is surrounded by people, who are afraid of getting lost.
The days are sad...
"That's fine. I'll come in and talk to the Crown Princess when I have time."
As soon as Zhan Yunfu agreed, Fu Zhonghai took advantage of the situation and asked, "Why don't you come in every afternoon?"
Seeing Zhan Yunfu's face darken, Fu Zhonghai quickly retreated a little: "How about an odd day..."
Seeing that Zhan Yunfu still didn't respond, Fu Zhonghai showed a bit of pity on his face: "How about going to the palace every five days?"
Without waiting for Zhan Yunfu to refuse, Fu Zhonghai softened his tone: "You can't let me not see you..."
The emperor was acting like a spoiled child and still looked like a middle-aged wolfhound. How could Zhan Yunfu resist?
She sighed and couldn't help but persuade: "I am now the old lady of Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion, and I am a grandmother. If you and I..."
“How should the world view me?”
"Forget about me - how should they view the door lintel of Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion?"
"I can't bring shame to Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, can I?"
Fu Zhonghai is over fifty years old and has rebelled to power. In his heart, he has long regarded "other people's opinions" as shit!
But he knew: Zhan Yunfu cared about this.
So he didn't refute it directly, but just played the victim.
"Then can you please be more kind to me? Just come to the palace to see me from time to time..."
"Otherwise, what am I working so hard for?"
"What's the point of being the emperor?"
"Am I only able to work hard for the people of the world, and I can't even see the person I love?"
"An'er is going to be a father soon. During the meal today, the couple was so affectionate with each other, but I am still alone..."
Zhan Yunfu watched Fu Zhonghai speak more and more pitifully and felt her temples throbbing with pain.
She couldn't help but put her hand on her forehead.
She knew that this guy was acting, but she just couldn't handle it. What should she do?
"Don't think about it...I'll come to the palace on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month to accompany the Crown Princess, okay?"
Fu Zhonghai took the opportunity to hold Zhan Yunfu's hand: "I know that you love me the most, sister..."
Zhan Yunfu was stunned for a moment, then reached out and touched his cheek with a complicated expression: "You..."
He clearly owns the whole world and can have concubines and harems at any time.
But even after he had been on the throne for more than half a year, he still insisted on not having a harem or a queen, and even refused to favor the palace maids, just remaining single.
There are countless people in the court eyeing the throne.
Even those daughters of wealthy families had a secret crush on this emperor, who was handsome and strong even though he was middle-aged.
Fu Zhonghai couldn't bear it any longer and directly hugged Zhan Yunfu into his arms.
Zhan Yunfu struggled a little, then resigned herself to his holding.
Fu Zhonghai's heart was screaming like crazy, he wanted more, he wanted a kiss, he wanted to love her well...but he knew he couldn't.
He was afraid that Zhan Yunfu would be angry, so he didn't dare to go any further.
Wait a little longer, the time is not right yet.
Wait a minute...
