Chapter 209 Irreparable

Aunt Cui on the side heard this, her eyes lit up, and then she said respectfully: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, your concubine is right. I remember that the "Compendium of Materia Medica" contains, "Papaya can be found everywhere, and the one in Xuancheng is the most popular."

"Good", so it is called Xuan papaya. Xuan papaya is indeed effective in curing waist and knee pain, vomiting and diarrhea.【】"

Hearing this, the Queen showed a weak smile on her face: "Hurry and present it to me!"

"Yes, Madam, please try it first, Aunt Cui." Wei Ning'er immediately poured a bowl for Aunt Cui!

Aunt Cui took a sip and then said with a smile: "Mother, this is the taste of Xuan papaya!"

"Send it over!" The emperor looked at Wei Ning'er and said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wei Ning'er immediately filled a bowl and stepped forward.

The emperor took it personally, and then said to Wu Shulai on the side: "Take it outside and show it to the imperial doctors!"

When Wei Ning'er heard this, she froze up and looked at the emperor in disbelief. Although there was nothing strange on her face, she felt something bad in her heart.

The emperor looked at the stubbornness and grievance in her eyes, and sighed: "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the queen can't make any mistakes now, not to mention that this is something you brought, so you must be extremely cautious, otherwise the queen will make a mistake.

If you have an accident, you will also get into trouble, do you understand?"

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er looked at the emperor blankly, and then nodded slightly after a while.

"To report to the Emperor, the imperial doctors all said that there is nothing unusual about this Xuan Papaya Sugar Water, and it is curative for the Queen's current symptoms!" After about a quarter of an hour, Wu Shulai walked in with the Papaya Water.

Aunt Cui, also under the emperor's instruction, poured the last remaining portion of the Xuan papaya water brought by Wei Ning'er into a bowl and gave it to the queen.

"It's a bit sour, but I like the taste!" The queen smiled after finishing the drink.

"I will put more sugar next time!" Wei Ning'er breathed a sigh of relief and said softly.

After all, this is diet therapy, which is much slower than not taking medicine. The queen's symptoms will only take a few days to drink Xuan papaya sugar water.

"Well!" The Queen did not treat Wei Ning'er as an outsider, so she would not be polite.

"Your Majesty, there's no need to trouble my concubines. Let me leave it to my servants to cook from now on!" Aunt Cui on the side said with a smile.

"Mother Cui, you don't have to be polite. Bingruo, who is with me, was born in Xuancheng. She has been cooking this Xuan papaya syrup for a long time. I'm afraid no one in this palace can match her craftsmanship!"

"That's true, this slave knows that Xuan papaya is extremely sour, but the sugar water just now tastes great!" Aunt Cui said with a smile.

"So, it's time for me to go to my concubine's place and have a drink!" the emperor laughed loudly.

"I don't get what I asked for!" Wei Ning'er said deliberately.

"Well, maybe it tastes better if it's chilled. Your Majesty, please drink more!" the Queen teased.

"Empress!" Wei Ning'er looked at the queen and laughed dumbly.

Maybe this Xuan Papaya Water really has miraculous effects. The queen only used it twice and she felt much better. Emperor Longyan was so pleased that he rewarded Wei Ning'er with a decree.

By April 6th, the queen had been drinking Xuan papaya sugar water for three days. She had no vomiting or diarrhea, but her waist and knees were still a little sore. After the consideration and suggestion of the imperial doctors, the queen asked Wei Ning'er to boil it for two more days and give it to her.

On the eighth day of April, Wei Ning'er took Bingruo to pay her respects to Concubine Xian early in the morning. I don't know why, but Concubine Xian was particularly talkative today, and she kept talking to everyone for a long time. In the end, Concubine Chun couldn't help but sarcastic.

After a few words, she let everyone disperse angrily.

After returning to Zuixin Garden, Wei Ning'er and Bingruo went straight to the small kitchen to prepare papaya syrup for the queen.

"Did the little eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs bring Xuan papaya?" Wei Ning'er asked the little palace maid Pei Xue after entering the small kitchen.

"My little master, it has been delivered. When I saw that my little master had not returned for a long time, and the weather was getting hotter, I was afraid that it would go bad, so I took off the skin and flesh of the Xuan papaya and put it in the ice water." Pei Xuegong

The voice said.

"That's very good. You are quite attentive!" Wei Ning'er has been quite satisfied with Peixue these days.

"Little master, rest a while, slave, come here!" Bingruo took a step forward and said.

"No need, I'll come over!" Wei Ning'er said with a smile: "You've been working very hard these past few days, and I've learned the lesson, so you can take a rest!"

Regarding Bingruo, Wei Ning'er now completely trusts her, so naturally she is very kind to her and does not treat her like a slave.

"Little master, slave..."

Before Bingruo finished speaking, Qingyan walked in and said with a smile: "Little Master, Aunt Muyun from Concubine Xian's side is here. She said she has something important to see our aunt!"

"Go, Bingruo!" Wei Ning'er turned around and smiled.

"I'm not going. I'm not familiar with her, but she's always bothering me these days. Qingyan, please go and tell her that I'm very busy!" Bingruo was a little reluctant.

"Go and see what their purpose is?" Wei Ning'er said with a smile.

"Yes, little master!" Bingruo nodded slightly and went with some reluctance.

After Bingruo left, Wei Ning'er took the Xuan papaya out of the ice water, cut it into small pieces, and put it into the purple clay jar.

For fear of any accident, she never left the kitchen for a moment and sat down on the chair that Pei Xue brought.

"Pixue, how long have you been in the palace?" Wei Ning'er asked, looking at Peixue who was sitting in front of the purple clay pot and watching the fire.

"My little master, this slave has been in the palace for three years!" Peixue showed a flattered smile on her face. Normally, these rough slaves could only look at their master from a distance. Who would have thought that one day the master would chat with her?

.

"Three years...how did you become the palace maid of the rough envoy? Are you born in Xin, a Kunu?" Wei Ning'er asked.

"No... I was born in a coat, but... I made a mistake and became a maid." When Pei Xue said this, her eyes were slightly red, and there was a hint of trembling in her words.

"From now on, you can go to the inner hall to serve me!" Wei Ning'er pondered for a moment and then smiled.

"Little Master!" Peixue looked at Wei Ning'er after hearing this, her eyes full of shock.

"I think you are doing well, both in mind and body." Wei Ning'er said with great satisfaction.

"Thank you, little master!" Peixue immediately knelt down and kowtowed in thanks.

"Get up and take a good look at the purple clay jar!" Wei Ning'er said with a smile.

"Yes, thank you, little master, thank you, little master!" Peixue kowtowed a few more times, then got up, and sat in front of the purple clay jar with tears in her eyes. She could not hide the excitement in her heart, and her hands were shaking slightly.

About half an hour later, Xuan papaya and sugar water were cooked. Wei Ning'er packed it carefully as usual, then called Qing Yan and sent her to the Queen's clear water and sky with her.

About two-quarters of an hour after Wei Ning'er left, Bing Ruocai entered the small kitchen with an unhappy expression.

"Auntie is back!" Peixue immediately put down her work and bowed slightly.

"Where is the young master?" Bingruo took a look inside and said, "Is the young master gone?"

"Yes, the young master took Qingyan girl to the clear water and sky!" Peixue said respectfully.

Hearing this, Bingruo's face became even more unhappy, and she said angrily: "It's that Mu Yun who insisted on letting me go with her to talk outside Zuixin Garden, but instead asked questions and asked for trouble. She also said that she had dropped her jewelry and asked me to help her.

I was looking for it, but I missed the time. I never thought that the little master had gone to the clear water and sky!"

"Auntie, don't be angry!" Peixue said respectfully.

Bingruo responded and was about to turn around and leave, but inadvertently saw the bamboo basket that Pei Xue used to put the discarded things. She took a step forward and grabbed a handful of melon rinds from the bamboo building, her expression instantly changed.

He became a little pale and shouted sharply: "What is this?"

"Aunt...this is the skin that my slave peeled off Xuan papaya!" Peixue looked at her with some confusion.

"Pa..." Bingruo slapped Pei Xue on the face and shouted: "You stupid and stupid slave, where did your eyes go? Is this Xuan Papaya? Damn slave, are you going to kill me?"

Everyone?”

Like a lightning strike, Peixue stood there blankly. After a while, she touched her face and woke up, but Bingruo's shadow was no longer in front of her eyes.

"Where are you going, aunt?" Xiao Yizi asked with a smile when he saw Bingruo running out in a hurry.

Bingruo ignored him and ran out with all her strength.

Xiao Yizi saw something was wrong and immediately chased after him.

"What's wrong, Bingruo?" Xiao Yizi grabbed her and asked.

"Let me go, my little master is about to die, and we are about to die too!" Bingruo shouted with tears streaming down her face.

Xiao Yizi was startled, then let her go, but did not go back. He ran to follow her, and the two of them headed towards the clear water and sky together.

Under the clear water and cloudy sky, Wei Ning'er chatted with the queen for a while before presenting the slightly cold Xuan papaya sugar water.

The queen took it with a smile and drank it in one spoonful after a while.

"Give me another bowl. The papaya water today is unusually sweet and not as sour as usual." The queen gave the bowl to Wei Ning'er and said with a smile.

"My concubine cooked it with her own hands today, and Bingruo never interfered!" Wei Ning'er said with a smile.

"Ning'er is getting better and better!" the queen said with a very satisfied smile.

Wei Ning'er just smiled and said nothing, and gave the Queen another bowl.

Except for the first two days, when Wei Ning'er came with papaya water on these two days, no imperial doctor except Aunt Cui would examine her again.

"It is indeed sweet and delicious, but I just took a sip. Can you please reward me for finishing the bowl?" Aunt Cui looked at the queen and said with a smile.

"When has Grandma ever been so polite in front of me?" The queen couldn't help laughing when she heard this.

The queen drank three bowls in a row and wanted to drink the rest, but Wei Ning'er and Aunt Cui did not dare to give her a drink.

"Your Majesty, it's not good to drink too much. How about you take a break and drink again later?" Only then did Wei Ning'er realize that the Queen actually had some temper tantrums.

"Okay!" The queen nodded helplessly.

At this moment, there was a noise outside the dormitory. Wei Ning'er and others heard the noise and walked over, only to see Bingruo and Xiao Yizi running in sweating profusely.

Bingruo looked at the empty bowl on the table and the small purple clay jar with only a little papaya water left, and felt that all the strength in her body was suddenly drained, and her whole body collapsed to the ground.

"Bingruo, what's wrong with you?" Wei Ning'er asked, holding her hand.

"Little Master..." Bingruo's eyes were full of despair, and tears burst out. After a while, she crawled to the bed, grabbed the queen's hand and said in a low voice: "My queen, spit it out quickly, spit out the papaya water, please."
