The corners of Shen Nian's mouth curled up slightly, "I'm also worried that it's not safe over there."
"Well, anyway, the emperor has agreed to let me go. You should go and tell the emperor that I agree." Xia Tian urged him.
Compared to going to Lingxiao Mountain with the emperor and the others, she would rather follow Shen Nian.
After all, she wasn't familiar with the others, so there wasn't much to talk about, and it felt a bit awkward to be with them.
"Okay, I'll go now."
Xia Tian saw that Chen Nian was about to leave, and remembered that a group of people had just surrounded the villagers of Xiawan Village. Although the imperial physician had checked and found that they were not infected, he was afraid that some people had not yet shown symptoms, but had already contracted the disease.
The emperor is also close by, and if anything happens to him, it would be a disaster.
He quickly took out a porcelain bottle and stuffed it into Shen Nian's mouth, "Give the emperor one pill of the medicine in here, and you take one too, just in case."
Shen Nian knew what she was thinking, so she took it and hugged her gently before leaving the tent.
Xia Tian was stunned for a moment, feeling sweet in his heart. Then he remembered that the prince was also present at the scene, so he quickly took out a porcelain bottle and went to the prince's tent.
Anyway, she has a lot of medicines like this, and the imperial physician can't find anything.
Chen Nian returned to the emperor's side. Seeing that only Doctor Xu and Eunuch Xu were in the tent, he took out a porcelain bottle and poured out two pills. "Your Majesty, this is a pill that my wife gave me for self-defense. It can protect me from all kinds of poisons. Would you like to take one?"
Seeing that the emperor was a little confused, Shen Nian quickly explained, "This humble official thought that you were not far away from the villagers of Xiawan Village just now, so just in case, you can take precautions first."
After saying that, he picked up a pill and swallowed it. After all, it was medicine. Even if the emperor trusted him, he would not take medicine of unknown origin.
Before the emperor could react, Shen Nian ate one, quickly reached out and took the other one, smiling and said, "I haven't eaten yet, Chu Xuan, you've eaten first?"
Doctor Xu, who was standing nearby, was startled when he saw the emperor take the pill and was about to put it in his mouth. He quickly spoke out to stop him, "Your Majesty, wait a moment. Let me check it first."
The emperor paused, feeling somewhat embarrassed. "Chu Xuan is the person I trust the most."
"Your Majesty, I am not being considerate enough. It would be better to have Doctor Xu check it out. After all, it is medicine, so it is better to be cautious."
Although Xia Tian said that this medicine can be used by ordinary people, the emperor is not an ordinary person. If something goes wrong, he will become a sinner.
The emperor saw that Shen Nian was not displeased, so he handed the pill to Doctor Xu.
Doctor Xu took the pills and examined them. They were all medicinal herbs for nourishing the body and there was nothing wrong with them. Then he handed them to the emperor.
The emperor saw that there was nothing wrong with it and ate it directly.
Doctor Xu asked Shen Nian curiously, "Master Shen, this pill and the pill that the wife of the Prince of Ning'an took last time seem to be tonics for the body. Why do they have such an effect?"
Doctor Xu was the same doctor who treated Shen Hui when she had a difficult delivery last time.
The medicine Shen Hui used last time was given to him by Lord Shen’s wife. He remembered it very clearly, but he didn’t expect that the medicine actually had a detoxifying effect.
"Has Doctor Xu seen this medicine?" the emperor asked curiously.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Doctor Xu stroked his beard, "Last time, when Lord Shen's sister had a difficult delivery, it was Madam Shen's medicine that saved her."
The emperor nodded, there was actually such a thing.
It was a good decision to bring Madam Shen along on this trip to offer sacrifices to the heavens. As expected, he was right. Madam Shen was a very capable person, and maybe she could really handle the plague.
The emperor suddenly gained great confidence in the treatment of the plague, and the worries in his heart dissipated a lot.
Shen Nian gave one pill each to Doctor Xu and Eunuch Xu, originally wanting them to take it as a precaution, after all, they were all people close to the emperor.
If they are infected, the emperor will also be infected.
Eunuch Xu was surprised. He didn't expect that Lord Shen would give him such a precious pill. He quickly took it and thanked him.
Doctor Xu was reluctant to part with the medicine, so he took it in his hands and went down to study it.
They will be separated from the emperor and others tomorrow, so Shen Nian simply gave the porcelain bottle to the emperor. There were eight pills in the porcelain bottle. In addition to the pills he had just taken, there were four left. He asked the emperor to carry it with him for emergency use.
The emperor took it silently, said nothing, just patted Shen Nian's shoulder heavily and let him go to rest.
After Shen Nian left, the emperor stared at the porcelain bottle in his hand for a while before putting it away.
He did not give it to Eunuch Xu, but put it in his own arms.
He also asked Eunuch Xu to call the prince over.
"Father, are you looking for me?" The prince came in and bowed to greet him.
"My son, come quickly and take this pill." The emperor waved his hand and asked the prince to come to him.
The emperor took out a porcelain bottle and poured out a pill. The prince saw it and silently took out the porcelain bottle in his hand, "Father, I have one too."
Just now, when Madam Shen gave him the pill, she said that the emperor had already given it to him, and asked him to take the medicine to the imperial physician for a check before taking it.
He was just about to come and find his father, but he didn't expect his father to come to him first.
The emperor was stunned when he saw the porcelain bottle in the prince's hand. "Did Lord Shen give it to you?"
"No, it was given to me by Madam Shen." The prince said seriously, "Madam Shen said that this medicine can prevent plague and asked me to have it checked by the imperial physician before taking it.
She also said that she had given it to the Emperor, so I wanted to come to him."
The emperor smiled, and he was even more satisfied with Shen Nian and his wife.
"Has the prince eaten yet?" the emperor asked the prince with a smile.
"No, this medicine hasn't been checked by the imperial physician yet!" Although the prince trusted Xia Tian, his education since childhood made him understand that imported things must be checked by the imperial physician before they can be taken.
"Okay, wait until the imperial physician examines you before eating." The emperor touched the prince's head lovingly.
Doctor Xu arrived a short while later, and the Crown Prince took a pill and examined it before taking it.
There were three left, and the emperor asked him to keep them himself.
The emperor couldn't help but feel a little curious. Is this medicine really so magical?
“Doctor Xu, is Madam Shen’s medicine really that powerful?”
"Yes, Your Majesty. I saw it with my own eyes, so Your Majesty must keep this medicine. I think this medicine may have more than one effect and be effective for other diseases."
He took the medicine and studied it for a while. It seemed that there was a medicinal ingredient added to it that he had never seen before, but he couldn't tell what it was.
After taking it, I felt a slight warmth in my body. This medicine is definitely a rare treasure.
I just don't know if Mrs. Shen knows what that unknown medicinal ingredient is? The key is that this may be someone else's secret recipe, so it's not easy to ask.
After hearing what Doctor Xu said, the emperor became more cautious about the pill.
"Doctor Xu, do you think this medicine will be effective against the plague?"
If this medicine is also effective against the plague, then the villagers of Xiawan Village will be saved.
"I think it should be effective." Doctor Xu is now looking forward to going to Xiawan Village tomorrow.
Although they were still a little worried, they were much more confident now that Mrs. Shen had the medicine to control the disease.
"If it really works, then Madam Shen will have made an indelible contribution!" The emperor said, firmly grasping the porcelain bottle in his hand.
