Chapter 112 Are you guys eating secretly behind people’s backs?
Ever since the last time she discovered that there was a problem with the pregnancy-preserving medicine, An An has been busy researching the problem with the medicine. She no longer goes to see Concubine Li and spends the whole day flipping through medical books.
These days, no matter how the servants tried to persuade her, Concubine Li refused to take the pregnancy-preserving medicine.
She only believed An An. Since the little doctor said there was a problem, then there was a problem.
The palace maids were so anxious that they scratched their heads. This pregnancy-preserving medicine was prescribed by the imperial physician in the palace. The emperor had also specifically instructed them to make sure the empress drank it every day.
If something really goes wrong, even if I have ten heads, they won’t be enough!
So he reported the situation to Emperor Mu Zhen.
After hearing this, Emperor Mu Zhen asked, "Have you asked clearly why the queen refused to take the pregnancy-preserving medicine?"
The maid nodded and said, "Everything was fine before, but then one day, Princess Yong'an said there was something wrong, and Your Majesty refused to drink."
After hearing this, Emperor Mu Zhen cursed inwardly: I actually forgot about this little brat!
"Did Princess Yong'an say anything about the problem?" asked Emperor Mu Zhen.
The maid shook her head and said, "No, it's just that the queen has refused to take the pregnancy-preserving medicine these days."
Emperor Mu Zhen waved his hand and said, "You go down first. Continue to take good care of him. There will be a big reward."
The maid was delighted after hearing this: "Yes, I will take good care of you, Madam!"
Having said this, he retreated happily.
Emperor Mu Zhen thought for a while, then called the imperial physician from last time and asked, "Is the medicine you gave me okay?"
The imperial physician turned the original fetal-changing pills into powder and mixed it into the daily pregnancy-maintaining medicine. It was both effective and not easy to be detected.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. I am confident about this matter. Apart from me, no one can find the problem in the pregnancy-preserving medicine unless something unexpected happens."
Seeing the doctor's confident words, Emperor Mu Zhen was relieved: "But these days, Princess Yong'an said there was something wrong, and Concubine Li refused to take the medicine."
Emperor Mu Zhen was a little anxious. He had banned the empress from traveling during this period and had also favored several young concubines, but no good news came.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. When they can't find any problems, you can send someone to watch over her. By then, the Empress will surely think there is no problem and will be willing to take the medicine."
Emperor Mu Zhen nodded, thinking that what he said made sense.
At worst, she could just stop for a while. By that time, that little brat wouldn't be able to find out there's a problem, and I'm afraid Concubine Li would just take the pregnancy-preserving medicine herself.
Thinking of this, Emperor Mu Zhen leaned back on the dragon chair and said, "This is a good job. When Concubine Li's baby is born smoothly, the position of Director of the Imperial Hospital will be yours."
The imperial physician's eyes lit up: "I will do my best!"
On the other side, An An was flipping through a medical book and his head got so heavy that he smashed into the book with a "bang". Jin Li was so scared that he hurried to check.
"Ah, little koi, how can't you see that this hole is swollen?" An An was very crazy.
Jin Li was also very anxious when he saw Xiaocao like this, but he really didn't know much about medical skills and couldn't help much. He could only comfort her: "Don't worry, Xiaocao, there must be a way."
No matter how covert something is, as long as it is done, there will be traces left.
"Hmm." Little Dumpling rubbed his eyes, feeling a little sleepy.
"Go and rest for a while. There's no time to rush. Concubine Li still has your grass leaves, Xiaocao. Don't worry." Jin Li rubbed Xiaocao's hairy head and comforted him softly.
"Well, okay."
Little Dumpling was really tired these days. He soon closed his eyes on the bed and started snoring.
After covering the little girl with a blanket, Jin Li took the bag of pregnancy-preserving medicine and planned to go out and ask some local doctors in Yu State.
Although he did not know any medical skills, he could not bear to see Xiaocao suffer like this, so Jin Li wondered if it was some local medicinal herbs from Yu State that Xiaocao had never seen before, so he planned to take the medicine bag to the doctor in the clinic to try his luck.
Just as he was about to go out, he ran into Chu Huai who was also about to go out.
The two of them stared at the medicine bags in their hands and turned their heads away. Then Chu Huai spoke first to break the silence: "Why not split up into two groups?"
Jin Li didn't say anything, just nodded, obviously agreeing with this statement.
So, the two of them split up and went to all the clinics they could find, but unfortunately, all the doctors said that this was just a more effective pregnancy-maintaining medicine.
Come to think of it, if there was a doctor who could have seen the problem in the medicine package, he would have probably entered the palace to become an imperial physician long ago.
The two had no choice but to go back dejectedly.
"Little Koi, Xiao Huai, are you guys stealing food behind your back?"
As soon as I came back, I saw Xiaotuanzi with his hands on his hips, looking at me with an expression that said "you are not kind".
Jin Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No."
This little grass only wants to be eaten.
An An came forward and sniffed like a puppy, and was relieved when he found that there was no smell of meat: "Then what are you doing?"
When I woke up from my sleep, I found that Xiao Koi and Xiao Huai were gone. I flipped through medical books for a while but still couldn't find the problem.
"We went to ask the local doctor in Yu State to see if there was any problem with the medicine package," Jin Li explained.
But all the doctors and physicians said there was no problem.
"Well, An An still hasn't found the problem." Little Dumpling had a bitter and wrinkled face.
But that wisp of black air does exist.
You can't tell Sister Piaoniang that it can't be drunk because it has black gas, right?
An An rubbed his face as if to vent his anger: "Wow, if only Master were here!"
The master will surely be able to tell what the problem is.
Jin Li sighed, wishing he could master medicine immediately so that he could help Xiaocao figure out what was wrong with the medicine package.
Chu Huai had no other choice.
"Ah, no, An An must see it!" The little dumpling was dejected for a while, then waved his hands again, looking confident.
Humph, Ji Ji is just a little fairy grass, how could he not see the problem!
Of course you can!
After adjusting himself well, the little dumpling went back to read the medical books in high spirits.
Jin Li and Chu Huai looked at each other and immediately followed to accompany him.
After accompanying Xiao Tuanzi to read medical books for a long time, Jin Li saw that the little guy was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes, so he advised Xiao Cao to rest early.
Seeing that Xiaotuanzi's breathing gradually became steady, the two of them quietly closed the door.
"Hey, you are from Yu country, do you have any ideas?"
This was the first time that Chu Huai heard Jin Li talk to him so much at once. This young boy was very taciturn except when he was patient with Little Tuanzi.
But Chu Huai didn't care about these. He lowered his head and thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something: "This medicine package was sent by someone from the palace. The emperor attaches great importance to this baby."
I believe he would not do anything like poisoning the medicine.
Now that the queen has been under house arrest, she shouldn't be able to cause any trouble for the time being, and the possibility of her doing anything is very low.
Chu Huai thought of something and widened his eyes: "Unless the emperor did it himself!"
