Li Qing's heart sank. He knew that Queen Ma was seriously ill, but he did not expect that she would be so seriously ill.
This...is clearly a sign that the end is approaching!
Not to mention him, even if his sloppy master comes, it won't help.
There is no such thing as an immortal, he is just a bad old man who is very capable. Li Qing still knows his master well. He is really powerful, but he is not as outrageous as the rumors say.
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, and then he was in chaos. He completely lost any imperial aura, and his face was full of shock and anger, but more of panic and fear.
"Trash, all fucking trash." Zhu Yuanzhang roared, "If the queen is good or bad, no one can live!"
With that said, 'Deng Deng Deng' came to Li Qing and took his hand, "Follow us, cure the queen, and I will make you a marquis and reward you with ten thousand gold!"
It can’t be cured…”
Zhu Yuanzhang did not continue speaking, but his cold eyes and breathtaking eyes had already explained everything.
Li Qing was almost dragged forward, feeling the big hand on his wrist trembling, and his calves couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The bounty of the feudal lord has been cured, but the peeling and stuffing can't be cured?
Qianqing Palace.
The imperial doctor and the palace maids knelt down to greet the Holy Master. Li Qing did not want to accept the gift, so he twitched his hand but did not take it away, so he had to accept it calmly.
Zhu Yuanzhang ignored everyone and pulled Li Qing straight inside.
The spacious hall was very quiet, with only the footsteps of the two people echoing, 'ta-ta-ta-ta...' like drums beating in the heart.
After a while, Li Qing stepped into the queen's palace with fear.
On the couch, the woman was leaning on the bedside, her eyes half-opened. The little palace maid took out a cotton handkerchief from the basin, twisted it, and gently wiped her cheek.
Seeing this, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief. He was already awake, which meant that the situation was not too bad.
When the little palace maid saw the emperor coming in, she quickly bowed and saluted, "My slave, I pay my respects to the emperor."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, stepped forward quickly and hugged the woman into his arms. The little palace maid stepped aside knowingly.
Li Qinggang wanted to follow him out, but he heard Zhu Yuanzhang say, "Sister, you will get better. We have found Zhang Sloppy's disciple."
Li Qing scratched his head and bowed, "Li Qing, common man, pays homage to the Queen."
"No courtesy." Empress Ma replied weakly, and then said to Zhu Yuanzhang, "Doctors can cure diseases, but they cannot cure lives. Don't embarrass others and let him go back!"
"What nonsense you are talking about. You are just sick and you will definitely get better...ah." Zhu Yuanzhang's voice trembled, "The good days will last for a long time. You can't die."
Empress Ma smiled bitterly, "How can anyone be immortal?"
"If we don't care, you can't die." At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't look like an emperor at all, just like a angry child. "We are the emperor, and if we don't let you die, you can't die."
Li Qing hadn't eaten lunch yet, but after eating a lot of dog food, he wasn't that hungry anymore.
"Li Qing!"
"Ah... the grassroots are here."
"Why are you standing there in a daze? Quickly go to see the queen."
"Yes, the common people obey the order."
Li Qing took a few steps forward, put his two fingers on Queen Ma's wrist, and analyzed the pathology with bated breath. After a long time, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
"How?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked nervously.
Li Qing nodded, "It can be cured!"
"Okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked happy and promised, "As long as you can cure the queen, we will reward you heavily."
I just said it can be cured, not that it can be cured... Li Qing was full of helplessness, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He could only say, "Three feet of ice does not last in a day. Common people need to understand the previous diagnosis and treatment process of the imperial doctor." , only then can we prescribe the right medicine.”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, "When can I be cured?"
"tomorrow!"
Li Qing explained, "Today, the empress took the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor, and there are still drug residues in her body. If she takes the medicine prescribed by the common people again, I am afraid it will have the opposite effect."
After a pause, he added, "My wife is sick and should not eat a lot of tonic or fishy food. Just eat some rice porridge or rice soup."
Zhu Yuanzhang did not understand medical skills, but seeing that what he said was clear and logical, his expression softened greatly: "Okay, let's go and have someone do it."
After saying that, she walked out in a hurry. After taking two steps, she turned back to Queen Ma and said, "Sister, please rest first. You have heard that your disease can be cured. Please relax."
"Yes." Empress Ma nodded and said softly, "Your Majesty, please do not delay state affairs because of your concubines."
"Okay, that's right. Just relax and rest."
The maids on the side quickly stepped forward to help the queen lie down. After seeing her sleeping, Zhu Yuanzhang stepped out of the hall.
When the two of them came outside, the young eunuch from before immediately came to greet them and saluted. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered: "Inform the imperial kitchen to make some rice porridge and bring the rice soup. In addition, go and get the prescriptions prescribed by the imperial doctor before."
"My slave obeys the order."
The little eunuch agreed and hurried away with small steps.
"Gululu~"
When he heard that Li Qing, who had not had lunch in the imperial dining room, his stomach growled unsatisfactorily.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him sideways and said, "Come with us!"
"Why."
…
After wandering to the imperial study room, Zhu Yuanzhang walked to the imperial desk where there were piles of memorials and sat down. He said to Li Qing, "The meal will be ready later."
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Li Qing's reaction and just started reviewing the memorial.
Li Qing couldn't sit down even without the imperial order. He felt bored standing there in a daze, so he glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang from time to time.
He was very interested in the legend of this commoner emperor. This was not a calligraphy and painting in a history book, but a living person. Starting with a bowl, the result was a country, which is unique throughout history.
However, the Zhu Yuanzhang in front of him was very different from the Hongwu Emperor in the history books. Instead of being calm and composed when he was reviewing the memorials, he was swearing profusely, being very naughty, and even a little angry.
"Damn, what are you writing about?" Zhu Yuanzhang angrily threw the memorial aside and said angrily: "The whole article is flattering, what's the use of keeping such an official? He can pass on our oral instructions and let the superiors ignore them.
People go home and farm."
The waiting Xiao Huangmen quickly picked up the memorial, bowed and hurried away.
Zhu Yuanzhang cursed a few words and continued to review, but during this period his words came out dirty.
Li Qing secretly said, "Historical books say that it was not easy to be an official in the Hongwu Dynasty. It seems that this statement is true.
But it should be said that Zhu Yuanzhang is indeed very efficient in reviewing memorials. Well... no wonder, who will he do if the Prime Minister is gone?"
Two quarters of an hour later, two small yellow men came in carrying food boxes and called softly, "Your Majesty, it's time to eat."
"Well, put it somewhere!"
Zhu Yuanzhang did not raise his head and continued to review. It was not until a quarter of an hour later that he raised his head, stood up and sat down at the dining table.
After taking a bite of the dish, which seemed to suit his taste, he ate happily, had enough to eat and drank, and said to Li Qing, "Come over and eat!"
"...The common people thank the Emperor for his kindness."
Let the leftovers be leftovers, it's better than nothing... Li Qing wasn't polite, he picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
It is indeed produced by the Imperial Kitchen Room, and the taste is much better than that of restaurants outside.
"Hiccup~"
Four meat dishes, four vegetarian dishes, and two soups. Zhu Yuanzhang ate a small half of it, and the rest went into Li Qing's stomach.
Xiao Huangmen looked at Li Qing in shock. They had never seen such an impudent person before. Even several distinguished princes had never been so rude.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care much. Seeing that he had eaten and drank enough, he put down the memorial in his hand and asked: "When can you cure the queen's illness?"
"This common man doesn't dare to jump to conclusions." Li Qing said bravely, "The common man will do his best."
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him and said calmly, "As I said, if you cure the queen's illness, you will be rewarded heavily. If not... you should understand."
"I understand, I understand..."
At this time, the little eunuch from before came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor has been found."
"Give it to him!"
The young eunuch responded and handed a thick stack of prescriptions to Li Qing.
Li Qing took the prescription and looked at it one by one to understand Queen Ma's healing process.
Almost all of the prescriptions were based on slow-medicine preparation. Frankly speaking, there was nothing wrong with this, but Queen Ma's physical condition meant that there was no time for treatment.
I think the imperial doctors also knew this truth, but they had no other solution. Slow medicine could not cure the disease, but strong medicine would kill him immediately.
Li Qing could feel the helplessness of the imperial doctors and couldn't help but secretly smile bitterly.
To be honest, in terms of medical skills alone, he was no better than the imperial doctor, and was even worse. However, he did have a good treatment plan for Queen Ma's physical condition.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang had been reviewing the memorial, he looked at Li Qing from time to time. Seeing that he had finished reading the prescription, he said:
"Is there any treatment plan?"
"Yes!" Li Qing nodded affirmatively, "May I ask Your Majesty, is there a banjo in the palace?"
