The emperor was silent for a while, thinking of some bad rumors, "Zhou Qing's cooking skills..."
Zhou Man's face darkened, and he said seriously: "What does cooking have to do with the skill of boiling medicine?"
Is it still relevant
But the emperor thought about it for a while, and felt that all the medicines were bitter. The medicine Zhou Man boiled couldn't be more bitter, right
So he nodded.
Only then was Zhou Man satisfied, and took the prescription to leave with Xiao Yuanzheng.
After walking out of the Tai Chi Hall and walking into the long and empty corridor, Xiao Yuanzheng looked at Zhou Man and asked, "There is still a medicine missing in the prescription."
Surprised, Zhou Man couldn't help but look up at Xiao Yuanzheng.
Xiao Yuan put his hands in his sleeves, turned to face her, frowned and asked, "What kind of medicine is it, and it's not written on the prescription?"
Zhou Man was silent.
Xiao Yuanzheng said: "This prescription is indeed new, you must have expended a lot of effort to deduce it, but their compatibility can't bring out the maximum effect of the medicine, it looks like you are escorting other medicines , preparing to stimulate another medicine, what kind of medicine is that medicine, why is it not stated in the prescription?"
Zhou Man was silent for a while, then sighed after a while, "It's a herb that is extremely hard to find again, I named it "Jiancao."
"And immortals? Touched the grass of immortals?" Xiao Yuanzheng frowned, "I've never heard of it."
Zhou Man glanced back and saw a palace man approaching from a distance, so he turned around and said, "Let's talk as we walk."
Xiao Yuanzheng also glanced back and followed Zhou Man's footsteps.
"Does Yuanzheng still remember Master Wei?"
Xiao Yuanzheng: "Nonsense."
After finishing speaking, he paused and frowned, "Master Wei's body..."
Zhou Man nodded, "It's because of the fairy grass that he can live for those three years."
Jixiancao is the main raw material of the potion. Zhou Man translated it according to its meaning. She said: "This is a medicinal herb I got by chance when I went to the Western Regions. After that, I searched the surrounding mountains and rivers, and I couldn't find it again. These I kept asking my fourth brother to pay attention to it in 2010, but I couldn't find it anywhere in the Western Regions."
"Your Majesty has always been paranoid about longevity. I am afraid that after the disclosure, His Majesty will go to the Western Regions to search for it at any cost. The political situation in the Western Regions is not stable. Although it belongs to my Dajin now, there will still be wars from time to time. I am worried..."
Before Zhou Man could say anything, Xiao Yuanzheng understood what she meant, and couldn't help but frown, "We are imperial physicians, we only care about curing diseases and saving lives, and we will tell His Majesty what medicinal materials we need, and the rest is out of our hands. Found out, the crime is the same as deceiving the king."
"But I'm not only an imperial physician, I'm also the magistrate of the Imperial Medical Office, and I'm also the editor of the Chongwen Museum," Zhou Man said: "A good minister should have a choice, and his ambition is in the world, not just loyal to the emperor. I don't want to cause disputes or even wars because of me. In the end, it became a sycophant in the book."
Xiao Yuan was speechless.
Zhou Man said: "Master Wang who brought Naluoer Sapo back is very talented, a rare talent in Honglu Temple, without a holy metaphor, without the real support of the imperial court, he borrowed soldiers from Tubo to destroy Zhongtianzhu by himself, is it possible that He is disloyal to the emperor, does he not love his name?"
"But because he brought back Na Luo Er Sa Po, his reputation has been ruined and his official career has been hindered. Is this his original intention?"
Xiao Yuan was rubbing his forehead, and asked: "How much immortal grass do you have?"
"There is not much more, there are only two copies. I have also calculated that with His Majesty's body, after using these two copies, it will have no effect on him. I plan to divide it into four parts and use three of them. For decoctions, and one for making pills."
Xiao Yuanzheng asked in a low voice: "The detoxification pill that His Majesty used some time ago..."
"I also added some to protect his viscera."
Xiao Yuanzheng sighed and asked, "Can I have a look?"
"I have refined it into a concoction. You can only see the concoction and the images I drew."
Xiao Yuan said rightly: "Let's go and have a look."
Zhou Man could only take him out of the palace and go home, sitting in the carriage, Zhou Man was full of thoughts, but he didn't regret it. Sure enough, other doctors might not be able to detect the problem of the prescription, but Xiao Yuan could.
Not only because of his superb medical skills, but also because he and Zhou Man often cooperate, have a close relationship and know each other well.
Back home, Zhou Man took Xiao Yuanzheng directly to her pharmacy.
Her pharmacy was full of medicinal smells and mixed things, Xiao Yuan looked at it with disgust, "Why don't you clean it up?"
"Don't move around. I know where these things are. Once you clean them up, I won't know where they are."
Zhou Man opened a drawer, and a jade bottle appeared in her hand. She turned around and handed the jade bottle to Xiao Yuanzheng, "This medicine is precious, you can only try a drop."
Xiao Yuanzheng glanced at her, "I know."
Xiao Yuanzheng had his own method of testing medicine. After knowing the main efficacy of this medicine, he took four medicines from Zhouman's pharmacy and boiled them. Drink this bowl of medicine carefully.
Zhou Man himself hadn't even drank it, so he couldn't help but stare helplessly, "How does it feel when it's in your throat?"
Xiao Yuan glanced at her, closed his eyes to feel carefully, and handed Zhou Man his hand, "Take the pulse and see the difference from just now."
Zhou Man hurriedly took his pulse...
The two of them stayed in the pharmacy for a long time, when Xiao Yuan was leaving the house feeling refreshed, he said to Zhou Man, "Don't be in a hurry to make medicine for His Majesty, wait until tomorrow noon."
Zhou Man said with a sleepy expression: "Got it, Xiao Yuanzheng, you took two drops of medicine from me."
Xiao Yuanzheng: "...I'm here for verification, otherwise, would I dare to let you use this unknown medicine on Your Majesty?"
After a pause, he lowered his voice and said, "After boiling the medicine, destroy the dregs of the medicine. I will allow you to make detoxification pills at home. The dregs of the medicine must be disposed of properly, and there is no possibility of leakage."
"knew."
Xiao Yuanzheng left just now, but he began to ponder in his heart, this fairy grass really deserves the name Zhou Man chose, it's a pity that there are too few of them.
However, at the end of His Majesty's strength, these liquid medicines are enough for him to adjust to his best condition, after which these liquid medicines are useless.
Xiao Yuan was returning home, after thinking for a long time, he still recruited the housekeeper, and handed him a piece of paper with a grass drawn on it, "Let someone go to the Western Regions to find this medicinal herb, if you meet merchants going to the Western Regions, especially medicine dealers, , I entrust you with one or two, as long as you find it, you will be rewarded."
The butler took it and complied.
Xiao Yuan was waving his hands to make people retreat, but he was worried in his heart, should he tell His Majesty about this
After all, he is different from Zhou Man. Zhou Man has been familiar with the classics and history collections since he was a child, and he was trained as a civil servant, but he is a doctor, an imperial physician.
As an imperial physician, he only needs to be responsible to His Majesty and the patients, and then avoid disasters whenever he can.
But this thing...
