After this was done, Yu Wenhao asked Yuan Qingling to enter the palace, talk to Concubine Hu, and think of a way to coax his father out of the palace.
Yu Wenhao believes that the emperor's father felt that the high price of medicine and the high cost of consultation would benefit the court outweighing its disadvantages. After all, it was very comfortable to collect taxes.
Yu Wenhao also checked. The taxes paid by the Pharmacy of Beitang Medical Center are still quite large, and his father is afraid of being poor, but he is willing to do it whenever he can increase revenue for the treasury.
He believes that the cost of a medicine is as high as ten or twenty cents, and people who can go to the hospital to see a doctor don't care.
However, this is his idea of living in the temple. This idea of him is taken for granted. The best way is to let him see it with his own eyes and understand the suffering of the people before he can reform with his heart.
Yuan Qing Ling Yiyan went into the palace, she could speak bluntly to Concubine Hu, Concubine Hu was a person who understood things, and supported the prince and Yuan Qingling very much. After hearing about the whole thing, she sighed and said: "Jingcheng Is it the same? I thought it was the only place where the bitter cold was like this. When I was in the border area, the medical clinic's medical fees were also very high. It was impossible for ordinary people to go to the doctor at all. When I got sick, I went to grab some herbs by myself. , Or looking for a barefoot doctor. I still remember a girl in the house. Her brother fell from a tree and was not hurt very badly at first. But without money to ask the doctor, her mother went up the mountain to collect herbs for him to cover his wounds. Holding her hands, the wound was pus, swollen into a big piece, and after a few days of high fever, the girl knelt in front of the palace, begging the palace to hire a doctor for her brother, but it was too late, the doctor went I saw it and said that I was unable to return to the sky, but as long as I could afford it in the first place, this life would not be lost."
Yuan Qing Ling can't help feeling sad, and there are many people like this.
But what can be done? The price of Beitang’s medical center is so high whether it is for consultation fees or medicine. This is not a place, but the whole country.
"Then ask the empress for this favor." Yuan Qingling said.
Concubine Hu said: "Don't worry, the princess, this palace should be able to persuade the emperor to go for a walk, and the emperor should also go for a walk. This world is his world, but he is only in the palace all day long. I don't know how people are suffering. What?"
Other concubines dare not say this, and Concubine Hu is not relying on the emperor's favor, she has always been like this.
"Then thank you Niangniang!" Yuan Qingling got up and saluted.
Concubine Hu looked at her and said with a smile: "I really envy your husband and wife. If it is someone else, I'm afraid they won't tell you about these political affairs, but the fifth child has nothing to hide from you, and I am willing to ask you for help. How nice."
Yuan Qingling smiled, "Manny, he asked me to help, and I can help him again. Isn't it true that he said it is good? I have to be tired."
Concubine Hu shook her head, "No, it's good to be able to help the one you love. My palace hopes that the emperor can tell me something annoying, but what he never said is that he loses his temper sometimes. It's just to let my palace see his temper, but my palace doesn't know what's going on."
"Father is angry at you?" Yuan Qing Ling was startled, it's impossible, isn't it? The father really loves the concubine and the concubine, and a discerning person can see it at a glance. It is impossible on weekdays, let alone being pregnant now.
Concubine Hu smiled and said: "He didn't lose his temper at this palace, but when he came to this palace, that stinky face was still confiscated. Sometimes Father Mu was waiting next to him, so he vented his anger with Father Mu. Look, father-in-law is really wronged."
Yuan Qingling also laughed. Indeed, father-in-law Mu Ru is sometimes very angry, but what can be done? The father is inseparable from Mu Ru father-in-law.
"Where is the old ten?" Yuan Qingling had been here for so long before remembering that he had never seen the tenth prince.
"Go to the Queen's side." Concubine Hu said.
Yuan Qingling was a little surprised, "Go to the Queen's side? Did the Queen tell him to go?"
Concubine Hu said: "It was he himself who wanted to go to the mother's empress and look for Mynah, but..."
Concubine Hu tilted her head, somewhat hesitant to speak.
"What's the matter?" Yuan Qingling asked when seeing this.
Concubine Hu lowered her voice, "I always feel that the imperial concubine and the empress have become much more friendly recently. I go to accompany each other every day, and even ask people to set up a small kitchen in the palace. Sometimes they live directly with the empress. What's your idea? Can the toffee tell me?"
Naturally, Yuan Qingling knew it, but Concubine Hu was not the kind of curious gossip person, so she didn't know what to do. I was afraid that the imperial concubine and the queen didn’t know what to do. In the end, she was born in the most popular pet. The son is pregnant again, and those who become mothers will be more cautious.
She thought it was okay to tell Concubine Hu about this, so she told her what the concubine had requested.
Concubine Hu listened and felt a little rested, "It turned out to be for this, that's better."
"I don't have to worry too much about my mother. There have been so many things in the past few years, and there must be nothing wrong with the harem."
Concubine Hu sighed, "I can’t help but worry about it. Someone asked the imperial concubine a while ago, saying that the harem hasn’t been drafted for a long time, and it’s time to hold a draft, saying that this rule laid down by the ancestors should not allow the emperor to favor this palace. one person."
"Who brought it up?" Yuan Qing was surprised, but she had never heard of this.
Concubine Hu's eyebrows were lightly sad, "It's Concubine Qin."
Yuan Qingling didn't expect Concubine Qin to make some trouble. He thought that Concubine Qin should live honestly after Yu Wenjun died.
"Now the youngest in the harem is this palace. The emperor always comes to this palace. Since the prince left, the emperor has never visited her palace. She hates me for being close to you. Naturally Finding a way to deal with me makes my heart happy."
As Concubine Hu said, she felt that this was wrong, and quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, this palace didn't say that you are implicated in this palace."
Yuan Qingling shook her head, "No, it was indeed because of me that she was hated by her, but I thought she would not make any trouble again. I didn't expect to raise the issue of the draft girl. In fact, the emperor did not Shouldn't you agree with this in the end? What did the imperial concubine say?"
Concubine Hu said: "A few days ago please please, the imperial concubine said this in front of everyone. The main reason was to listen to everyone's opinions. In fact, no one would object to it, because apart from this is the rule left by the ancestors, It’s also because they themselves are not very favored. The palace has been favored for a long time, and everyone does not wait to see the palace. It is better to choose a few young people to come in and compete with the palace to see the excitement."
Concubine Hu's words were a little helpless. In fact, when she chose to enter the palace to serve the emperor, she knew that there would be people younger than her who would enter the palace in the future.
