readx(); A woman named Liu who served Concubine Liu in Anju Palace came into the room and asked Feng Yuheng, "Ask the princess, should the queen continue to take the medicines she took before? Those medicines were prescribed by the imperial physician in the palace. Now that the princess has taken over the queen's illness, do we need to change the medicines?"
Feng Yuheng nodded after hearing this and said, "Of course the medicine needs to be changed, you don't have to worry about it. I will personally feed the queen whatever medicine she wants to take every day, you just need to prepare warm water."
"Yes!" The old woman leaned forward, thought for a moment and said, "I have one more question, is it enough to just prepare warm water? Do I need to take it to the kitchen to fry it?"
"No need." She said to Concubine Liu, "Your Majesty should have heard that Ah Heng never prescribes bitter medicine soups for patients. Baicaotang has special pills."
Concubine Liu nodded and agreed, "I have heard of it, but I have never tried it. To be honest, I can't swallow the bitter medicine soup. It would be great if the princess could replace it with that kind of pills for me."
When the old woman heard this, she stopped asking questions and bowed and left. Feng Yuheng immediately took out a few pills from the medicine box that Wangchuan was carrying. They were all western medicines to regulate kidney function. She also took out the infusion equipment. She told Concubine Liu: "Your Majesty's illness has been delayed for too long. It is impossible to cure it in one or two days. Ah Heng will first alleviate your symptoms and save your Majesty from suffering all day long."
Liu Bin was very convinced by Feng Yuheng, and took the medicine as soon as she was given it, and did the acupuncture as soon as she was told to. I don't know if it was a psychological effect or if the medicine was really effective, but when the infusion was only halfway done, Liu Bin felt much better, and had some strength in her body, and was no longer as weak as usual.
Feng Yuheng knew clearly that this was all the effect of the drugs. She used all Western medicines, which had a great stimulating effect on the human body and took effect quickly in a short time, which was equivalent to top medicine, treating the symptoms but not the root cause. Even when she said that she could cure it, it was just a deal with the Liu family. In fact, Liu Bin's renal failure had reached the late stage. It was not impossible to prolong her life and improve her quality of life by transplanting a kidney, but no one could guarantee that a suitable kidney source would be found in a short period of time, and there was no guarantee of success. Even in later generations, a major operation like a kidney transplant is an extremely difficult project. A lot of time is needed for risk assessment before the operation, and a lot of drugs are needed after the operation to cooperate with the adaptation of the kidney source and the recovery of the patient. Any slight deviation during this period will lead to the failure of the operation and the death of the patient.
She never thought that Concubine Liu had the time to wait for the evaluation, let alone that a suitable kidney source could be found all at once. What's more, she couldn't complete such a major operation alone and would definitely need Yao Xian's help. She wasted so much effort and was only serving the Eighth Prince's clique. What was she trying to gain?
Concubine Liu was very happy that her spirits had improved. Feng Yuheng's arrival gave her hope for life. She even said to the maidservants beside her, "Quick, go and report to the Liu Mansion and tell them that I am better now, thanks to Princess Ji'an... Oh no, it's all thanks to Princess Yu! My brother will be very happy to hear about this. Tell him to remember to prepare a generous gift and send it to the Princess Yu Mansion. Princess Yu has helped me so much, the Liu family cannot not show any appreciation."
The young maid immediately agreed and quickly left the palace. Feng Yuheng smiled and said, "Your Highness is so polite." She did not refuse the gift.
Concubine Liu was very happy. She felt relieved when Feng Yuheng was willing to accept the gift. In addition, she was in a better mood. She kept talking to Feng Yuheng during the time when the bottle was hung. She talked about the depression she had experienced in the palace over the years, and said that the Liu family had never left her and she missed her brother very much.
Feng Yuheng kept sneering in her heart. Brother? Don't worry, she will soon let Concubine Liu see the real Liu family and see how her brother treats her.
After the infusion, Feng Yuheng left Wangchuan in Anju Palace, claiming to take care of Concubine Liu for her and to help her take medicine at night. In fact, it was to monitor the servants in Anju Palace. If they wanted to do something to Concubine Liu, someone had to do it.
With Concubine Liu's immense gratitude, Feng Yuheng left the palace and returned home. Before leaving, he promised her that he would come back tomorrow, and when he came back tomorrow, he would come up with a specific plan on how to treat her.
When Feng Yuheng returned to Prince Yu's Mansion, Xuan Tianming had not come back yet. She knew that he and Xuan Tianhua were working together to deal with the Eighth Prince's party who were jumping around in the previous dynasty, so they would definitely be busy, and she also had to wait for someone at home.
Wangchuan was left at Concubine Liu's place. She was only served by Huangquan. Huangquan noticed that she was absent-minded and occasionally glanced at the corridor at the entrance of the courtyard. He guessed something and asked her with a snicker, "Miss, are you anxious to wait for His Highness to come back? I think it's time for dinner now."
Feng Yuheng shook his head: "I'm not waiting for him, he will come back sooner or later, I'm not worried, I'm waiting for someone else."
"Another one? Who else?" Huang Quan was puzzled. "Are there any guests coming to our house?"
At this time, a maid ran in hurriedly, leaned forward in front of Feng Yuheng and said, "Princess, there is a man outside the mansion gate, claiming to be the doctor of Baicaotang, who wants to see you. Madam Zhou asked him to wait in the front hall, and I came to ask, Princess, do you want to see him? If so, should we go to the front hall or ask him to come over here?"
"Bring him here." She ordered, then looking at Huang Quan's puzzled expression, she explained: "If I'm not mistaken, the person who came should be Xu Mao."
She was right. The person who came was Xu Mao. He had been in the palace for several months and had been helping Sun Qi. He was also very low-key and did not attract much attention in the Imperial Hospital. But it was precisely because of this transparency that he was not guarded against and could get more information. Of course, Sun Qi was not among those who were not guarded against him.
When Xu Mao arrived in front of Feng Yuheng, he first bowed according to the rules and etiquette, and then, without waiting for Feng Yuheng to ask, he took the initiative to say, "Today I followed Sun Qi to ask for the pulse of the other half of the concubine. After returning, I heard Feng Li, who worked in the Imperial Hospital, said that he followed Princess Yu to see Concubine Liu today, and it was Miss Huang Quan who came to ask for it in person. I thought that the boss asked Miss Huang Quan to go to the Imperial Hospital to ask for someone, and it must not be for Feng Li, so I left the palace and hurried to the palace. It just so happened that I had something here that I wanted to talk to the boss in person."
"No hurry." Feng Yuheng received Xu Mao in the outer hall. She asked someone to seat him and asked the servants to bring tea. "Have a sip of tea first to relax, and we'll talk about the rest slowly. You were recommended by Wang Lin, so I naturally trust you more than Sun Qilai."
"Thank you, Master." Xu Mao was very moved. He took a sip of tea and immediately said, "Before I entered the palace, Cousin Lin told me to be smarter and learn more from Sun Qi, but not to talk too much. At the same time, I should also pay attention to Sun Qi's movements and be on guard against him doing bad things in the palace. At that time, I thought that Sun Qi was Song Kang's apprentice, and Song Kang was your apprentice. In fact, he was a legitimate family man. How could he do bad things? But since Cousin Lin said so, he must have his reasons. I have been helping Sun Qi for the past six months and have also paid attention to him secretly, but I didn't find anything unusual. Even the letters I sent to Cousin Lin on weekdays were all written by Sun Qi urging me to write, and there were also letters written by him. After writing, he didn't seal it and handed it to me. There were also some explanations of the big and small things in the palace. There has been nothing special, but in the past month, there have been some abnormalities."
Xu Mao frowned as he spoke, and it was obvious that he was very confused about what he was saying. He told Feng Yuheng, "Sun Qi has taken over Madam Liu's illness for nearly three months. Every time he went to take her pulse, I followed him. Once when Sun Qi was not there, Madam Liu fell ill, and I went there by myself. At that time, her illness was not so serious, but in the past month, it has begun to deteriorate rapidly, so that her life span has dropped sharply, and she has less than a month left to live. But these are not the strangest things. I came here today mainly to tell you that the reason why Minister Liu asked the emperor to let me go to the palace to diagnose Madam Liu was because Sun Qi told him that only you can cure this disease."
"Sun Qi said that?" The person who spoke was Huang Quan. The girl was furious and stamped her feet, saying, "What a traitor! I didn't expect that we were on guard against all kinds of things, and we took good care of the people outside, but only forgot about our own people."
Feng Yuheng thought more than her. She asked Xu Mao, "I have been back to Beijing for nearly a month. Why are you just telling me this?"
Xu Mao shook his head and said, "It's not that I won't come, but since Concubine Liu got sick, Sun Qi used this as an excuse to stay in the palace day and night, saying that he was on guard against a sudden attack of Concubine Liu. If he doesn't leave the palace, then I naturally can't leave the palace either. That is, today, Master, you officially took over Concubine Liu's affairs, so Sun Qi has no reason to stay in the palace, and I have time to go to Prince Yu's Mansion." He spoke while thinking about something, and after a while he said, "I don't know if I'm overthinking it. I always felt that someone was following me when I came here, but I couldn't see anyone when I turned back. It's really strange."
Feng Yuheng didn't find it strange. She immediately ordered Huang Quan: "Go tell Madam Zhou to prepare the guest house. Xu Mao will stay at Prince Yu's mansion today." After that, she said to Xu Mao: "You can go to the palace normally tomorrow. I will also go to the palace. I will keep an eye on anything. You don't have to worry."
Xu Mao understood something and couldn't help but get a little nervous: "Boss, do you mean someone is following me? Are they trying to kill me to silence me?"
Feng Yuheng laughed, but did not answer. Instead, he asked, "Are you afraid?"
Xu Mao was an honest man, and he nodded immediately: "I am afraid, who doesn't fear being killed? But I am not so afraid that I dare not walk outside. Since I dared to come to Prince Yu's Mansion to report these things to the boss, I thought that Sun Qi would take revenge. Cousin Lin once said that we are all the boss's people, helping the boss to do things. No matter how big the danger is, as long as the boss is here, we don't need to worry, the boss will protect us."
Huang Quan laughed at this, "Wang Lin is the smartest one. When I recommended him to be the shopkeeper, I thought he was a weird guy. But he really speaks the truth."
Feng Yuheng also nodded and said, "Your cousin Lin is right. As long as I am here, I will never let my people suffer any loss. You can stay in Prince Yu's Mansion with peace of mind. This matter is considered your merit. You will be indispensable in the future when it comes to rewarding merit."
After saying this, Xuan Tianming just walked back from outside. Xu Mao quickly knelt down and kowtowed in fear, but heard Feng Yuheng saying to Xuan Tianming: "I have to trouble you with one thing tomorrow morning. I have already drawn up a plan to treat Concubine Liu. Please ask the emperor to let all the Liu family members in Beijing come to the palace tomorrow and go to Anju Palace! Let's announce this plan in front of Concubine Liu!"
