Chapter 86 Chapter 86(1/3)
"What's going on?" After Sirok came closer, he saw clearly that the red color on the corner of his son's mouth was not blood, but looked like the juice of some kind of fruit. Knowing that he was not injured, he was half relieved.
.
When Qingyan rushed to the children with Tana and Li, she saw the pieces of fruit pulp stuck to the corners of Changquan's mouth and the two long irregular red lines on his chest, and she knew what was going on.
It's over.
"Fujin blames the servant for not being careful. Brother Changquan accidentally ate the red fruit of the persimmon." Bai Lu hurriedly leaned towards Siruke and said with some shame.
"What?" Siruk was immediately anxious. She also knew about the persimmons. The emperor had given several pots to the palace as a reward.
Although the flower-shaped fruit looks festive and beautiful, I have never heard that it can be eaten. Will it be poisonous if eaten?
Bai Lu's words verified Qingyan's conjecture. She herself knew that tomatoes were non-toxic and delicious fruits and vegetables, but no one else knew about it yet. Now it was considered a mistake. She might as well take this opportunity to spread the news that these three kinds of flowers are edible.
Spread the word? After all, she has been craving it for a long time.
After running through the idea in her mind, she quickly turned around and shouted to Zhang Tianxi who was not far away: "Xiao Xizi, run faster, go and fetch Doctor Li quickly."
"Yes, Master, I'll go right away." Zhang Tianxi also saw the situation here and quickly turned around and ran towards the palace gate.
"Fujin, don't worry. I've fed Sai Enhu this kind of red fruit before, and it didn't do anything at all. It still continued to beg for me eagerly. I guess the problem shouldn't be big." Tana said with all her heart.
In mixed language, he spoke and gestured to comfort Siruke.
She has been in the Forbidden City for a year, and gradually she can also speak some Manchu vocabulary. As long as she listens carefully, most people can still understand what she means.
What's more, the Siruke family often went to the palace to pay their respects to the two queen mothers. Li family was also brought up by the princess's grandmother. When her grandmother was a child in Shengjing, she came into contact with quite a few Mongolian women, so the relationship between the two of them was
Her level of Mongolian is not bad, and naturally, like Qingyan, she and Tana have no language communication barriers.
"But calves are different from humans. After all, Changquan's body has always been weak." With tears in his eyes, Siruk took out a handkerchief from his arms and gently wiped his son's mouth.
Qingyan originally wanted to say something, but after seeing Siruke wipe the juice from the edge, Xiao Changquan's lips were not only red and swollen, but his eyes were also full of tears. His mouth opened and closed but no words came out.
My heart suddenly sank at the sound of my son's voice.
Last year, he saved a lot of seeds of sweet persimmons, sweet peppers and sunflowers. At the beginning of spring this year, Zhang Tianxi transplanted them all into flower pots after growing seedlings from the seeds.
Qingyan looked towards the large slide to the east and saw red persimmons, green peppers, and light yellow sunflowers arranged in beautiful shapes by the palace people, and the little
The table is placed next to the flowers...
Just when Qingyan was about to ask Xiao Changquan if he had eaten pepper, a loud quiet whip sound suddenly came from behind.
Everyone hurriedly turned their heads and saw Kangxi and Prince Yu entering the Chuxiu Palace gate one after the other.
"Why are you all standing here?" Kangxi saw several women and children gathered together, and his second sister-in-law and nephew were still crying. He couldn't help but frown slightly.
Fuquan also saw the appearance of Fujin and his son, and his heart skipped a beat. After all, the mother and son crying at the prince's birthday banquet would somehow spoil the fun.
"Khan Ama!" Yinreng saw Kangxi coming and ran towards him quickly with small steps.
As soon as Kangxi bent down, he picked up his precious son who had rushed to him and walked towards the group of people.
Looking at the strange atmosphere among the few people, I was even more puzzled.
"Your Majesty, it's all because of Qingyan's poor care today that Changquan accidentally ate the persimmon fruit and probably also the persimmon fruit." Qingyan bit her head and bowed slightly to Kangxi and said.
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
Siruke was even more panicked. He didn’t even understand this yet, so why was there another kind of pepper fruit?
Kangxi was also extremely surprised. He had never expected that such a thing would happen.
This flower has been raised in the palace for many years, but I have never heard of anyone eating these fruits, which is a bit difficult to handle.
When Qingyan saw the anxious look of Prince Yu and his wife, she knew that they couldn't wait for the imperial doctor to come over. She hurriedly ran to the east wall, picked a red tomato and a green pepper each, washed them with water, and prepared to put them in her mouth.
Put inside.
"Little Hesheli, what are you doing?" Kangxi looked at Qingyan in surprise.
"Your Majesty, these fruits seem to be edible and harmless." Qingyan said and took a bite of the red persimmon. It was full of juice, sour and sweet, it was really good!
"You, you." Kangxi was also a little dumbfounded when he saw this scene.
Qingyan also knew that her behavior was a bit mindless, but at the moment this was the most direct method.
Even if the imperial doctor arrived, he would definitely have to check inside and outside for a long time, and he would have to have different people taste them to carefully check whether the persimmons and peppers were edible. This process was not only time-consuming, but also cumbersome to operate. At that time,
I'm afraid the couple will go crazy.
"Mother, why are you doing this?" Siruk was extremely upset by Qingyan's actions. This was like "testing the poison" for herself!
Qingyan looked at Prince Yu Fujin's tearful expression of gratitude. She quickly lowered her head and finished the tomato in her hand with some embarrassment. Just as she was about to endure the spicy taste and take a bite of the green pepper, she was interrupted by Kangxi's frown.
"Okay, don't eat it. Let's wait until the imperial doctor comes to see you."
After hearing Kangxi's words, Qingyan immediately threw the green pepper aside. After all, the smell was spicy. Xiao Chang's whole mouth was red and swollen. She is not a person who can eat spicy food. She just bit the green pepper.
It’s just self-abuse.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Changquan and Qingyan looked fine from the outside, and everyone could not help but feel slightly relieved. At this time, Doctor Li finally ran in with a medicine box on his back and sweating profusely.
"The humble minister is given to the emperor, the prince..."
"Okay, okay, come quickly and show your little brother and the imperial concubine." Kangxi interrupted Dr. Li's bow and bowed with a headache.
"Yes, Weichen will come right away." Dr. Li said as he raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead. On the way, he heard from the young eunuch Zhang Tianxi that the young brother of Prince Yu's Mansion accidentally ate persimmon fruit.
.
He didn't understand this fruit before, so he checked Xiao Changquan's pulse first with some trepidation.
Seeing Dr. Li frowning more and more, Siruke felt more and more panicked.
Qingyan, who was watching, couldn't help but doubt her own memory. Could it be that this persimmon was not the tomato from the previous life?
"What is going on?" Kangxi couldn't help but quickly turned his jade ring finger again. No matter what, he didn't want anything to happen to his nephew at the prince's birthday banquet in Chuxiu Palace.
Doctor Li raised his hand and pinched Chang Quan's chin, and took a closer look at his slightly red and swollen throat under the sunlight. After knowing what he had in mind, he quickly turned around and cupped his hands towards Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty's little brother is fine."
, I’m just a little bit angry, just drink a bowl of fire-reducing decoction and it’ll be fine.”
"What? Angry?" Sirocco did not expect that the diagnosis result would be like this.
At this moment, Qingyan's heart was relieved instantly. She rolled up her sleeves and came to Changsheng's side: "Doctor Li, please check my pulse too."
Although Imperial Physician Li didn't know why Concubine Jing did this, he still asked her to put on a pulse pillow, then put a silk handkerchief on her wrist and concentrated on diagnosing her pulse.
After a while, he put the pulse pillow and silk handkerchief into the medicine box with a smile, and said to Qingyan: "Please rest assured, my dear concubine, your pulse is strong and very healthy."
"Your Majesty, this is it." Qingyan immediately raised her head and looked at Kangxi.
Adults and children ate the persimmon one after another, but nothing happened. This at least proves that the persimmon is edible and non-toxic.
"Mr. Li will check the persimmon and pepper fruits again." Kangxi knew what Qingyan meant, so he ordered Dr. Li to be more safe.
Hearing this, Liang Jiugong hurriedly ran to pick one red fruit and one green fruit and rushed back.
Doctor Li took out his full set of poison testing tools from the medicine box and carefully inspected the skin and flesh of the two fruits. Then he stretched out his index finger and lightly dipped some of the red juice of the persimmon into his mouth. It was sour.
The sweet taste is very good, it seems to be a kind of fruit?
Then he hurriedly stretched out his middle finger and lightly swiped the pepper flesh, then put it into his mouth as he had just done. Unprepared, he choked on the spicy taste, and then coughed violently a few times.
His whole face suddenly turned red.
Seeing the pitiful look of Dr. Li, Qingyan couldn't help but feel sympathy in her eyes. It seemed that Dr. Li was the kind of person who couldn't eat spicy food at all. She quickly asked Bai Lu to pour him a glass of Xiaochang Quan's drink.
Honey water.
When Kangxi saw Doctor Li in "extreme pain", his heart couldn't help but feel high.
After drinking two cups of honey, Doctor Li finally washed away the spicy taste and said to Kangxi in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, according to Wei Chen's guess, these persimmon fruits and sweet pepper fruits should be edible.
, the former is sour and sweet and very delicious, while the latter is very spicy and more stimulating than dogwood, but the body will heat up immediately after eating it, so it must be miraculous in preventing cold and keeping warm."
"Really?" Upon hearing this, Kangxi's eyes lit up instantly.
Qingyan couldn't help but feel relieved in her heart. She didn't expect Dr. Li to examine her so quickly.
"Wei Chen is almost 90% sure. Your Majesty can also ask the chief to take a closer look." Dr. Li bowed his hands respectfully and said.
"Liang Jiugong quickly picked some sweet persimmons and sweet peppers and asked Ziqing to send them to the imperial palace for further inspection by Imperial Doctor Zhang." Kangxi said with great joy. After all, the current food output was low, and every time a new food was discovered, it would
It can make people's stomachs fuller.
"Why don't Your Majesty ask Dr. Zhang to take a look at the seeds of the sunflower? When mature, these seeds are very similar to watermelon seeds, and you may also eat them." Qingyan hurriedly answered the conversation.
"Okay, I'm sure!" Kangxi originally didn't feel much about these flowers and plants, but now he looked at the red and green fruits, and the more he looked at them, the more he liked them.
"I hope my brother is fine." After hearing the adults' conversation, the little prince's short arms that were tightly holding his mother's neck loosened.
"Baocheng, Baoqing, how did your little cousin eat this fruit?" Kangxi turned to look at his son curiously.
"A few of us were originally talking about going to see the fourth baby, but then my little cousin didn't understand, so he sat aside and played with flowers. When Aunt Bailu found out, his mouth turned red and he couldn't speak.
Both the baby and the baby were frightened." Yinreng pointed in the direction of the big slide and said in a sweet voice.
Bai Lu, who was standing behind Qingyan, was even more ashamed. She was the commander-in-chief of this birthday banquet. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, she had been busy for several days. She got up this morning when the night sky was still full of stars.
