When the emperor met Mr. Bai and his wife in the Tai Chi Hall, he naturally did not use the reason to marry them, but found an excuse.
The emperor said that he hadn't been back to Longzhou for a long time. Coincidentally, Master Bai's ancestral home was also in Longzhou. Although his family had been branched for many years, the emperor ignored him, so he summoned him to ask about the customs of Longzhou.
Fortunately, because of Mrs. Liu, Master Bai is still familiar with Longzhou, so he told the emperor about the changes in Longzhou and what hasn't changed.
Customs and customs were just excuses, and the emperor quickly brought up the topic of children's affairs, from the hardships of upbringing, to the sadness of children's disobedience, to the difficulties of children's marriage, and worries about the future. People had a profound exchange.
Of course, the emperor also asked about some local actions of the Bai family, so as to examine the style of the Bai family.
The two talked for an hour. The queen took medicine, had an injection, and changed the medicine patch. Seeing that there was no movement in the front hall, she couldn't help feeling worried, so she asked Aunt Shang to go to the front hall to find someone, "Just tell me I want to see Mrs. Bai."
Man Bao, who was packing the medicine box at the side, couldn't help raising his head and winking at Ming Da who was sitting.
Mingda glanced at her and said nothing, but Changyu received Man Bao's message, bumped Mingda directly with his shoulder, and then pursed his lips and smiled at her.
Mingda didn't feel anything at first, but when the two laughed, he became a little nervous and embarrassed.
Aunt Shang went to the front hall to invite people. The emperor and Mrs. Bai didn't say a word, and just wanted the queen to have a look at Mrs. Bai's character and see if she gets along well, so she just waved her hand and asked Aunt Shang to lead her. Going down, he invited Master Bai to play chess in the study.
Playing chess can also reveal a person's character and character.
Master Bai has often played chess with Mr. Zhuang, but this is the first time he has played chess with the emperor. I don't know how good the emperor's chess skills are. If he is too good, will it appear that he is too bad;
If not, should he win the emperor, or give way
Master Bai struggled to leave with the emperor, while Mrs. Bai nervously followed Aunt Shang to the back.
As soon as she entered the apse, she was asked to wait outside, and Aunt Shang went in to report first, and only when the queen got dressed and sat at the head of the hall did she be announced in.
Mrs. Bai walked in nervously with her head down, raised her head slightly, and didn't dare to look directly at the queen, so she just looked at her skirt and knelt down to salute, "The women pay their respects to the empress."
The queen asked her to stand up with a smile. After getting up, Mrs. Bai wiped the sweat from her forehead. She raised her head slightly and saw that there was still someone sitting on the chair next to her. Man Bao, who was sitting at the bottom, was smiling at her and meeting her eyes. And winked at her.
Mrs. Bai's heart relaxed a little, she didn't dare to make any unnecessary movements, so she stood obediently with her head bowed.
The queen was very kind, and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk, come and give me a seat."
Then someone brought up a small stool and placed it in the middle of the hall for Mrs. Bai to sit down. The queen comforted her and said, "Don't be nervous, let's just talk. When did Mrs. Bai arrive in the capital?"
Mrs. Bai bowed and said, "It's been four days."
The queen asked with a smile, "Is the journey safe?"
All the questions were very common, Mrs. Bai relaxed slowly, bowed and said: "Thanks to your majesty and empress, the journey was safe, and it only took eight days to reach the capital."
The queen also talked a lot with Mrs. Bai, and finally pointed to Mingda and Changyu and said, "These are my two daughters, Mingda and Changyu, haven't you met my wife?"
Mrs. Bai immediately stood up and bowed to the two princesses, Changyu sat down and accepted, nodded slightly to excuse her, Mingda bowed slightly and returned a half salute, and also excused her.
After talking, the queen also kept Mrs. Bai for dinner, and Man Bao was also kept.
The emperor, who had just played two games of chess with Master Bai, knew that the queen was very satisfied with Mrs. Bai when he heard that the empress had left her a meal, so he couldn't help but glance at Master Bai.
Although he doesn't look very smart, but he is honest and kind-hearted, and his chess skills are so-so, but he is very respectful to him as the emperor, and he is not as flattering as the Ren family.
Although he is a side branch, he is from an aristocratic family anyway, and his etiquette is not bad.
So the emperor thought about it, and simply left the master for dinner.
When he can get out of the Tai Chi Hall when he is lifted up, it is already too late, and Man Bao has to go back to the Tai Hospital to take over, so he simply sent him to the gate of the palace with the servant.
Master Bai wiped his sweat and walked forward, while declining, "The gate of the palace is very far away, I don't need you to see it, go back quickly."
Man Bao smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, the Tai Hospital is not too far from the palace gate. Master Bai, His Majesty has summoned three people during this period, and you are the only one who was left behind for dinner."
When Master Bai heard the news, he let go of his heart instantly, knowing that their family is in the upper hand now.
He quietly glanced at the servant who was leading the way, and whispered to Man Bao: "Man Bao, you and Princess Mingda are good, and when you see her, please speak well to your junior brother."
Man Bao nodded, expressing his understanding.
Master Bai is completely relieved, it is good to have acquaintances, and it was a good move to let Erlang and Shanbao pay homage to Mr.
Master Bai stroked his beard contentedly, he felt refreshed and didn't feel the heat any more.
Man Bao sent them to the gate of the palace before returning to Tai Hospital.
Today is a rest day, and there are a lot fewer people in the imperial hospital. Both Imperial Physician Lu and Imperial Physician Liu are on rest, and Imperial Physician Zheng is instructing the three of them on how to search for the files and put the pulse records into the files.
Sometimes the imperial doctors are too busy, and all these things require medical assistance.
It's just that very few medical assistants can learn this just after entering the palace. Most medical assistants have to start from managing the pharmacy and repeat what they have done before.
But the three of Zheng Gu and the others have back doors, there are still three back doors. Grandfather, uncle and master are all imperial physicians. If someone gives advice, other medical assistants can only envy them.
As soon as Man Bao came in with the medicine box, Zheng Shao immediately went up to take the medicine box cleverly, Doctor Liu went to pour tea for the master, and Zheng Gu pulled the chair away for her to sit down.
Imperial Physician Zheng who was still standing at the side: ...
Man Bao took a sip of the warm tea and asked Imperial Physician Zheng, "Where is Xiao Yuanzheng?"
"I went to see Prince Gong. It took you so long to give the queen the injection and the medicine?"
Man Bao avoided the seriousness and said lightly: "Your Majesty will keep me for dinner, I can't refuse."
The Empress really wanted to be more affectionate to Zhou Man, Imperial Physician Zheng didn't ask any more questions, but said: "Then you should be on duty in the courtyard. In the afternoon, I will take Dr. Liu to the Empress Dowager's Palace."
Man Bao nodded and asked, "How is the Queen Mother?"
"It's still the same. The queen, Princess Mingda and Prince Gong didn't dare to let her know about the illness." After that, she flipped through the notebook, and quickly found two pulse records for her, "Yesterday's pulse case."
Man Bao glanced at it and knew it, she nodded, and said to Zheng Gu: "I will be on duty at the Palace of Gong Gong tonight, you come with me, go to rest now too."
Zheng Gu complied a little excitedly.
