The words of the concubine carry a lot of weight. After today, it is destined that Prince Gong and Xiao Shizi will live in dire straits.
Under the coercion of the princess, Xiao Shizi asked Zhou Man to check up and down with tears in his eyes. At the same time, with the supplement of the princess and the maids, he found out the diet and routine of the father and son for the past six months.
There are more than 20 notes in Manbao's notes.
She glanced at the things she wrote down and shook her head, and said directly to the patient's family, Princess Wang, "I have to go back and think about the weight loss plan. I'm afraid it won't take a day or two to get results."
The concubine was fortunate enough to see Zhou Man's schedule for Prince Gong's weight loss. It really couldn't be done in a day or two. After all, it even counted the time when Prince Gong would drink water and give up Gong.
She hurriedly said: "Master Zhou will go on his own, and I will watch over the prince and the prince. If there is anything necessary, Master Zhou can just order the servants in the mansion."
Man Bao responded with a smile, and communicated directly with the princess, "It's nothing, but I have never been to Luoyang, and I want to go out for a stroll."
The concubine immediately said: "I will provide Mr. Zhou with a carriage and a coachman, and bring a few servants with him. You can just tell them where Mr. Zhou wants to go."
Man Bao said with a smile: "I brought a guard and a girl with me when I came, so there is no need to serve anyone, just to disturb the coachman in the mansion."
The princess saw that she was willing to accept the kindness, so she laughed and said: "What's the matter, Master Zhou, if you need anything, just ask, you have come from a long way, we should do what the host wants."
Not to mention that she has a good relationship with Mingda Changyu, she is still a confidant of the Eastern Palace, and she is also a celebrity in front of the empress. Now they are in the line of King Gong far away from the political center, and they will look up to the prince in the future, so they need to form more good relationships.
The princess is different from Prince Gong, she doesn't want to offend Zhou Man.
Prince Gong hummed at the side, but no one paid any attention to him.
The concubine sent Zhou Man out, and when she got outside, she said worriedly: "Master Zhou, the prince's leg..."
She struggled: "Although it's not snowing now, it still hurts, and it's hard to sleep at night."
That's why Prince Gong got fatter after the winter. If he only gained 20 catties of meat this year, then 15 catties would be gained after the winter.
He was so uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep, so he liked to eat more, and he also liked to eat meat, and he didn't want to move because of the leg pain, which made him even fatter.
Man Bao said: "I already have a treatment method, but I still need to prepare some things. In this way, we will prepare first. Before going to bed in the evening, I will go to the main courtyard to treat Your Highness. After the treatment, I will go to bed."
The concubine smiled as if relieved, and hurriedly said: "Master Zhou needs to prepare anything, just list it, and I will let the servants prepare it."
Man Bao nodded, "I'll make a list later, but I need to go out and pick out some convenient things myself."
The concubine heard the sound and knew the meaning, and immediately said with a smile: "I'll let someone prepare a carriage for Mr. Zhou."
Man Bao went back to his room, asked Xibing to prepare paper and pens, and first listed all the things needed for the treatment to the servants of the palace, and then he packed up and went out.
Daji also washed and took a break, now he was in good spirits, pulled his horse and followed Zhou Man.
Xibing felt that it was too cold, so she took out a cloak and tied it on Zhou Man.
Man Bao walked out in a hurry, and when he passed the guest house a few yards away, he paused, turned his head and asked, "Do all the servants who came with us live here?"
Xibing froze for a moment and turned to look at Daji.
Daji said calmly: "The adults of the imperial army live here, and the adults of the internal servants live elsewhere."
Man Bao nodded, and said to Daji: "Ask them whether they want to go back to Beijing or stay here for the New Year, if they stay here, send them some money, and trouble them to spend time here. "
Good luck.
The palace prepared a carriage for Zhou Man, and when he saw Zhou Man coming out, he immediately put down the stool for her to step on.
Man Bao took a look at the carriage before stepping on it. It was not very luxurious, but it was not narrow. The most important thing was that the emblem of Prince Kung's Mansion was printed on the wall of the carriage.
Man Bao was very satisfied, and got into the carriage with a smile.
Xibing followed Manbao and told the coachman, "Go to Jishitang."
When entering the city this morning, shopkeeper Zheng Da and the others stopped at the Helai Inn, but Jishitang is half a street away from the Helai Inn.
The servants of the palace thought she was going to Jishitang to buy something, so they went directly to Jishitang without any doubt.
When Man Bao entered Ji Shi Tang, a clerk immediately came forward to greet him, "Is the young lady taking medicine or seeing a doctor?"
Man Bao glanced around and asked, "Is the shopkeeper Zheng Da from the capital here?"
The doctor who was doing the accounting at the counter raised his head and looked Zhou Man up and down, handed the matter over to the medicine boy, immediately came out with a smile, and saluted, "But Doctor Zhou?"
Man Bao nodded.
He turned sideways and said, "Shopkeeper Zheng Da and our shopkeeper are in the backyard, please come from behind."
Shopkeeper Zheng Da said as soon as he came, that he came with Zheng Gu's master Zhou Taiyi, and he used the excuse of seeing Gong Wang's doctor, so the doctor was waiting at the counter early in the morning.
Shopkeeper Zheng Da and Shopkeeper Zheng from Luoyang Jishitang were sitting in the backyard talking, when they saw Zhou Man coming, they immediately welcomed him in.
Shopkeeper Zheng Da and Zhou Man introduced: "This is brother Cong, who ranks ninth in his clan." Zheng Si on the side was sent by shopkeeper Zheng Da in advance. He was in charge of the medicine in the capital and enrolled in Zheng Gu Later, he helped shopkeeper Zheng Da, so Man Bao was familiar with him. The visitor nodded, mainly to salute to shopkeeper Zheng Jiu. Man Bao called him "Treasurer Jiu", and asked after sitting down, "How is the matter?"
Shopkeeper Zheng Jiu immediately said: "I have already received the person sent by the eldest brother, and I am also taking care of it, but the people from the county government are holding on tight, even the niece and daughter-in-law's natal brothers have come forward, and they are still unwilling to let him go."
"Fortunately, we don't care about sending things in. These days my nephew and niece-in-law are doing well in prison. I made a pill of anti-abortion medicine and sent it in. I just went to feel the pulse quietly yesterday. Although a little startled, it’s okay.” He continued: “We spent a lot of money to lock the husband and wife together, and quietly sent a pair of needles to the nephew. With him, the nephew and daughter-in-law will be fine for the time being. .”
Shopkeeper Zheng Da has already heard about these situations, and now he is only talking about them for Zhou Man.
Man Bao frowned, "I am willing to let their husband and wife be locked up together, why don't you let Erniang An go? She is just a family member, and Zheng Gu's crime is not a big one, so it can't harm the family, right?"
Shopkeeper Zheng Jiu sighed and said: "Probably because of the account books. I heard that the county government is looking for the account books for my nephew to purchase medicinal materials, but my nephew has been refusing to say where.
Man Bao lifted his spirits and asked, "Don't they know that there are people from our capital?"
"No... I don't know, I'm familiar with this place, and I'm the one who helped the fourth brother come here."
