There was nothing wrong with the princess, but it was cold, but she seemed to have a bad appetite, so her face was tired and pale.
Man Bao didn't even need to prescribe medicine. Thinking of the cold weather and the trouble of taking off his clothes and getting needles, he simply said, "Let me prescribe a medicinal diet for you."
She said: "The Imperial Medical Office has considered several medicinal recipes, and I have memorized them all. Although it has a medicinal taste, it is much weaker than drinking medicinals. Drink some medicinal soup, eat some medicinal diets, long-term maintenance, and the foundation of your body. Well, people will be fine."
It would be the best thing to be able to cure diseases with food, without needing needles or taking medicine. The princess nodded again and again, and the smile on her face was even bigger.
People in the East Palace often heard that the doctor Zhou cared about people like a spring breeze. She had never had the opportunity to experience it before, but today she finally realized it.
Man Bao thought that he would ask Prince Gong for something in the future, so he let Prince Gong feel her concern.
She turned her head to look at Prince Gong with a smile, and asked softly, "How does Your Highness feel recently?"
The flesh on Prince Gong's body trembled, and he looked at him warily, "Did the crown prince recommend you?"
He once showed his favor to the prince and wanted to repair the relationship between the two, but it was not successful, and he was too lazy to please the other party, so although the relationship between the brothers did not continue to deteriorate after he gave up the throne, it did not improve much.
He suspected that Zhou Man was sent by the prince, but what was the purpose
He doesn't even have the qualifications to fight for the throne now, so the crown prince won't let him go
Man Bao was still very gentle at this time, and said to King Gong: "The empress appointed the minister to come here."
She praised herself: "Your Majesty thinks that I have good medical skills and experience, and understands His Highness's old injuries and illnesses, so she appointed me here."
Prince Gong was very skeptical, the queen mother was always considerate, even if she sent the old doctor Liu, she wouldn't send Zhou Man, would she
He doesn't like Zhou Man.
It's just that among the many imperial doctors in the imperial hospital, it seems that Zhou Man is the one who has seen him the most and the longest.
The main reason is that weight loss takes too long.
Prince Gong was still in doubt, but Man Bao had already stepped forward, "Your Highness, can I get your pulse?"
Prince Gong glanced at Wangfei, and slowly rolled up his sleeves, not to mention Zhou Man and Wangfei, the little princes around him were uncomfortable watching, he waited for a while, but couldn't hold back, stretched out his hand and Grabbing Prince Gong's hand and pulling it towards Zhou Man, the two chubby hands were pulled together, and the little son who was only seven or eight years old said with a serious face: "Father, you can't hide your illness from the doctor."
Prince Gong: ...
Xiao Shizi raised his head and said to Zhou Man with a serious face: "Thank you, Doctor Zhou."
Man Bao's eyes were fixed on Xiao Shizi's white and chubby face, and then he looked at him as if reacting and said, "Xiao Shizi has changed a lot compared to before."
The princess was heartbroken when she heard the words: "Yes, he ate with His Highness this year, and he ate a lot."
Her cute and soft son...
Man Bao shivered, and when he looked at Prince Gong again, he lost the gentleness he had deliberately pretended just now, "Your Highness, overeating is not a good idea!"
Prince Gong felt that the familiar Zhou Man had returned, and rolled his eyes unceremoniously: "Is there no rice or meat in this king's house? Or is there no money?"
Man Bao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he pressed his hand on the pulse pillow and took his pulse. After confirming that his physical burden had increased again, he checked his injured leg and asked, "Is it sore because of the cold weather?"
Although Prince Gong disliked Zhou Man very much, he was not polite when using her. She was a subject of his Li family and was sent by his father and queen mother. Of course he wanted to use her, so he told the truth, "Sour ,pain."
He paused and then said: "Especially when it snows at night, I feel the cold air has been drilling into the bones, sore and painful."
The princess added, "Barely sleep at night."
Man Bao turned his head and glanced at the white snow piled up under the tree roots in the yard, squinting slightly, "When was the last time it snowed?"
"Just four days ago."
Man Bao nodded: "No wonder there is so much snow on the way we came, and the official road is almost closed."
If it weren't for the snow, the speed would have been even faster. After all, Luozhou was a fiefdom carefully selected by the emperor for Prince Gong, and it was not very far from the capital.
It only takes two days for the soldiers to go fast, and it only takes five days for Prince Gong to walk slowly on the chariot.
Man Bao asked calmly: "Is there a lot of snow in Luoyang this year?"
Both Prince Gong and Concubine thought that she asked about the weather to treat illnesses. After all, she used to ask him the same thing. It was hot today, so she moved less and drank more water. How much water to drink and how much meat to eat every day depended on the weather. hateful.
"A lot," the princess said truthfully: "Since the beginning of winter, there has been a burst of snow every once in a while, especially in November when it fell for three consecutive days, and the snow was so heavy that it crushed many houses. The Heavenly King is very sad."
Man Bao was startled, and quickly asked, "What about the whole Luozhou?"
Prince Gong narrowed his eyes slightly, and stopped the princess who wanted to answer, "Can this king's legs control the entire Luozhou?"
Man Bao despised him, "The small environment is affected by the large environment, and the overall environment is cold. Could it be that Luoyang was spared? If Luozhou is not cold, how cold can Luoyang be in a county?"
Prince Gong was furious at her look, and said directly: "Let's not talk about the whole Luozhou, the whole Central Plains has been affected by the frost this year."
He said: "This year, the drought started before the summer. It seems that all the rainwater is accumulated in the winter. As soon as the winter begins, it starts to snow, and it becomes cold after the snow."
He touched his leg, gritted his teeth and said, "My king's leg hurts when it's cold."
Although Prince Gong doesn't engage in politics and doesn't care about affairs, it doesn't mean he doesn't know anything. His fief is in Luozhou, so the situation in Luozhou is still known.
Man Bao's hand was still on his veins, and he frowned and asked, "But the capital hasn't received any report on the Luozhou frost disaster."
Prince Gong didn't take it lightly and said: "It's not very serious, Luozhou can still control it, so why bother Father?"
Man Bao glanced at him, withdrew his hand and said quietly: "Your Highness, it's time for you to lose weight."
When Prince Gong heard this, the fat on his body couldn't help shaking again, he couldn't even control the expression on his face, he hated hearing these words the most.
Man Bao's eyes had already fallen from him to Xiao Shizi, and he smiled gently, and said softly: "Xiao Shizi, you should also lose weight."
Xiang'er opened his mouth wide, and immediately turned to look at his mother. The princess struggled with the handkerchief, and finally said cruelly: "Xiang'er, listen to the doctor, let's eat less in the future, how about reducing it?"
Xiao Shizi immediately burst into tears and turned to look at his father.
Prince Gong immediately got angry and said: "How old is he, he is growing up, eating more is a blessing, how can he lose weight?"
Man Bao said: "If you don't lose weight, he won't grow taller in the future."
She said: "He is only seven years old now, and it is time to grow his body. If he does not lose weight at this time, all the food he eats will grow sideways. Think about what he will look like ten years from now?"
The concubine looked at Prince Gong and then at her son. After shaking for a moment, she said seriously, "Loose weight! We will lose weight tomorrow!"
