Mrs. Xu held her back and refused to let her leave, and even moved Wen Jin out.
He turned around and glared at Master Xu, "What are you still doing here? Why don't you thank Madam Chen?"
Mr. Xu was not angry. He clasped his hands together and bowed deeply to Xia Tian. "Thank you, Madam Shen, for saving Wen Jin today. I will never forget your kindness."
Xia Tian smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, you're welcome. Even though Wen Jin and I are friends, it's only natural given my relationship with Madam Xu."
Madam Xu felt relieved by what she said. She raised her hand and drove Master Xu out. "Go check the kitchen to see if the food is ready. Don't you see that everyone is hungry?"
Mrs. Xu got angry when she saw Mr. Xu and spoke rudely.
Even though he had just beaten her up, he was still angry and naturally didn't treat her well.
Wen Jin was feeling much better now. Seeing Madam Xu ordering her husband around, she felt a little embarrassed and quickly called out, "Mother~"
Madam Xu glared at her in reproach, "You just indulge him."
Wen Jin's face turned even redder. Master Xu looked at Wen Jin as she spoke for him and looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
Out of the corner of his eye he saw Madam Xu glaring at him again, so he quickly looked away and turned to leave.
Xia Tian found it funny, but she was also happy for Wen Jin. Having a husband who truly cared about her was better than anything else.
And from the looks of it, Mrs. Xu is also a very good mother-in-law, and she treats Wen Jin like her own daughter.
After a while, the food was served. Xia Tian couldn't refuse the hospitality, so he had to sit down and eat.
Mr. Xu was sent out by Madam Xu, so she, Wen Jin and Madam Xu had dinner together.
Wen Jin's appetite was not very good. She only drank half a bowl of soup and ate half a bowl of rice.
Xia Tian was indeed hungry, so he didn't hesitate and ate two bowls of rice before putting down his chopsticks.
She had to restrain herself, otherwise after she had eaten, she was afraid that Mrs. Xu would be scared and would not dare to invite her to dinner again.
Mrs. Xu was happy and knew that this girl was not shy.
After dinner, Xia Tian left four more pills for Wen Jin and told her to take one every day and she would be fine in a few days.
Wen Jin saw that she was about to leave and held her hand tightly.
Xia Tian teased her, "What? You can't bear to leave me? Why don't you just leave Master Xu and come back with me!"
Wen Jin gave her a coquettish look before letting her go.
Xia Tian told her not to eat weird things in the future.
At least until the plague is over.
Wen Jin chased her away with a red face.
Madam Xu sent a carriage to take her directly to the gate of Marquis Wu'an's mansion.
After three days, Xia Tian took the small porcelain bottles and went to the palace with Shen Nian.
The emperor saw them coming and quickly came out from behind the imperial table, "Is Madam Shen's potion ready?"
"Your Majesty, it's done." Xia Tian said as he took out the porcelain bottles one by one.
Thirty bottles in total.
She didn't take any extra, and besides, if there were too much, it would be worthless.
The emperor picked up a bottle, opened it and sniffed it. There was no smell at all. It looked as clear as water.
But he believed that Madam Shen would not joke about the lives of the people in the city.
“Mrs. Shen, since we already have the potion, you and Chu Xuan should hurry up and go. If you need any people or supplies, just take the sign and go get them.”
The emperor did not dare to delay, and these three days felt like years to him.
It’s better to control the plague as soon as possible before doing anything else.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The two men agreed, took the medicine bottle, and walked out.
They also have to go find Lord Lin.
As a result, they had just walked out of the imperial study and not far away when they met Lord Lin who was rushing over.
"Mrs. Shen, is the potion ready?" Lord Lin asked anxiously without waiting to get closer.
Seeing his anxious look, Xia Tian quickly replied, "It's all prepared. We were just about to come find you!"
Lord Lin was delighted when he heard that the potion was ready.
He had been feeling very depressed for the past three days. He wanted to ask Mrs. Shen, but he didn't know how to start. He was afraid that he would rush her too much and waste her time.
I won't ask. I'm tormented by myself. I wonder how Mrs. Shen's potion is being prepared?
In short, just like the emperor, every day feels like a year!
"Lord Shen and Madam Shen, please feel free to tell me what you want to do." Lord Lin bowed and his expression became much more serious.
"Master Lin, we both thought that you should continue to make medicine in each place as usual. Master Shen and I will send reliable people to add the medicine to your soup to ensure that everyone can drink it."
Xia Tian took out a porcelain bottle and showed it to Lord Lin. "Look, there's not much potion. I only have thirty bottles of this kind, so you have to use it sparingly."
This was also what she and Shen Nian had discussed. If the spiritual spring water was added directly to the water for the people to drink, they might not believe it.
If it is added to the medicinal soup, there is no problem. People will just think that the medicinal soup worked and will not associate it with anything else.
This can not only conceal the truth from others, but also achieve therapeutic effects, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.
Lord Lin was a little stunned. The amount of potion was indeed relatively small.
However, they only had so many medicinal herbs at the time, so it probably wasn't easy to mix them together.
"Okay, I'll listen to Madam Shen." Lord Lin agreed.
Xia Tian explained further, "Master Lin, because the medicinal materials are limited, there are not many potions.
But when you arrange to boil the medicine, you can put a few less packets of medicine. We are just using the medicine soup as a cover, but Lord Lin, you are the only one who knows about this."
Finally, I couldn't help but give a reminder.
So as to avoid letting the people feel that they are fooling them.
Lord Lin will do whatever they say now.
After Lord Lin left, the two of them hurried out of the palace.
