Chapter 834 836【Unified Thought】


    “Egg white mung bean soup, white cut tofu slices?! Are you going to prescribe this medicine to the empress?” Hu Suhua said in surprise.


    "Yes, Brother Xi, are you kidding me?" Sai Xishi also felt surprised.


    "This medicine is right for the empress''s illness." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "I also won for you, the opportunity to enter the palace to see the emperor and the empress."


    "What? I''m entering the palace?" Hu Suhua said in surprise when she heard this.


    "Yes." Xiang Nan nodded, "Let me tell you the truth. These two dishes are said to be eaten, but they are actually used externally. Fry the mung beans until they turn yellow and grind them into flour, then mix them with egg white and apply them on the wound. It is specially used to treat pain caused by cane injuries. Cut the tofu into slices and apply it to the bruised area. Changing it frequently can activate blood circulation and disperse blood stasis. It is effective for sure.


    ?But of course it’s not my turn to do this kind of thing, so I let you enter the palace and give you the opportunity to meet the emperor and the empress. It can be considered a blessing for you. "


    “Old man, you are really facing me.” Upon hearing this, Hu Suhua said happily, “I didn’t expect that I, Hu Suhua, would one day meet the emperor.”


    ?When Sai Xishi heard this, he was a little envious.


    “Yes, if you are twenty years younger, maybe the emperor will keep you in the palace.” Xiang Nan joked with a smile.


    "Hey, that''s not true. I think back then, I was just a flower in the countryside." Hu Suhua said happily, "What a pity, why did I marry a dead old man like you?"


    ?Sai Xishi pursed his lips and snickered.


    “I feel wronged, Madam.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.


    "It''s good that you know." Hu Suhua also smiled, "Hey, by the way, how could Concubine Zhen be so seriously injured? Who would dare to hit her?"


    He didn''t have time to think about it just now, but now that he thought about it, something seemed wrong the more he thought about it. She is the empress, how could she be hurt? !


    "You just thought of asking. Here''s what happened..." Xiang Nan immediately told the whole story.


    Hu Suhua and Sai Xishi realized how powerful it was when they heard it.


    “Oh, how can Prince Jing be such a fool?” Hu Suhua complained, “Isn’t this pushing us into a pit of fire? If the Queen Mother blames us, wouldn’t we be in great misfortune?”


    "Yes, the prince only cares about pleasing the emperor and doesn''t care about your life or death." Sai Xishi also said in surprise.


    She originally thought that Prince Jing was a good man who respected and loved Xiang Nan. Now it seems that they are just using him as a **** and may give up at any time.


    "So, as the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger." Xiang Nan nodded, "So I thought, if there is a chance, leave here far away, and we will not get involved in these head-turning things. What do you think? ?”


    "I think it''s okay." Hu Suhua nodded, "Old man, although the capital is good, I always feel uneasy living here."


    ?After arriving in the capital, within just one year, they encountered so many troubles and even nearly had their family wiped out. It was really scary.


    "Brother Xi, that''s exactly what it should be." Sai Xishi also nodded. She didn''t want to come to the capital at first.


    "Well, that''s settled." Seeing that Xiang Nan had unified his thoughts, he breathed a sigh of relief.


    …


    In the evening, Xiang Nan prepared egg white mung bean soup and sliced ??white tofu.


    As soon as Lu Zhengming arrived, he went to the palace with Hu Suhua to treat the empress.


    ?However, at this time, Hu Suhua found that her feet were weak and she could not walk.


    “Old man, why don’t my legs have any strength?” Hu Suhua asked anxiously, “Are you sick?”


    "Sick!? Let me take a look." Xiang Nan checked her pulse, then shook his head, "There is nothing wrong with you, you are just scared."


    "Nonsense, how could I be scared?" Hu Suhua said harshly. "Then you should take two steps." Xiang Nan said with a smile.


    Hu Suhua gritted her teeth and stood up, only to find that her legs were filled with lead and could not be used at all. Even her hands were weak and she could not hold on.


    "Look at it, you will be in trouble and teach me every day. Now it is your turn to enter the palace, and you are starting to get scared." Xiang Nan teased, "Oh, Your Majesty, you can''t see me anymore."


    "You...me..." Hu Suhua was ashamed and embarrassed. She wanted to get up but couldn''t get up.


    "Sister-in-law, you really can''t hold on. The time is coming soon, and we can''t let the emperor wait." Lu Zhengming looked at his pocket watch and said anxiously.


    Hu Suhua became more and more anxious as she was being urged. The more anxious she became, the more unable to move, and she felt paralyzed all over her body.


    "Forget it, madam, why don''t you give this opportunity to Xi Shi first? Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, when you have calmed down, I can take you into the palace?" Xiang Nan thought for a while and said.


    Hu Suhua originally wanted to go to the palace to take a look, but she didn''t expect that her body was really weak. At the critical moment, her chain actually fell off. She had no choice but to nod.


    Xiang Nan immediately took Sai Xishi into the palace and treated Concubine Zhen.


    Actually, he was not planning to work on Sai Xishi. After all, she was pregnant and would give birth soon, so it was not suitable for her to work.


    …


    Egg whites and mung bean noodles were served, and white cut tofu was applied to the wound. This operation surprised the emperor.


    "Xilaile, is this treatment really effective?" He doubted. This kind of treatment was unheard of and unseen. It was simply miraculous.


    "Don''t worry, Your Majesty. If it doesn''t work, I''d like to raise my head to see you." Xiang Nan bowed and said, "Actually, Concubine Zhen''s illness is not difficult to treat, but Your Majesty, you should pay attention to taking care of your body and don''t worry too much to avoid harming your spleen and stomach. ah."


    He could tell from Emperor Guangxu''s face that he was ill, even more seriously ill than Concubine Zhen. Concubine Zhen''s skin injury is nothing more than a skin injury. Applying some stick medicine will actually heal it.


    But Emperor Guangxu was ill in his internal organs. If he did not take care of him in time, he would endanger himself.


    “You are somewhat loyal, okay.” Emperor Guangxu nodded.


    …


    At midnight, Xiang Nan left the palace and returned home with Sai Xishi.


    “Sister, how are you?” Hu Suhua was not asleep yet. When she saw them coming back, she immediately came out to greet them.


    "It''s good. The emperor and the empress are both easy to talk to, and they don''t have any airs." Sai Xishi said with a smile.


    "Yes, that''s good." Hu Suhua nodded, "Does the empress look good-looking?"


    "She looks pretty good." Sai Xishi nodded, "However, I think my sister would be better-looking if she were twenty years younger."


    “Hey, it’s true, don’t try to trick me, right?” Hu Suhua said with a smile.


    “I didn’t get it to trick you. The concubines in the palace may not be as good-looking as you.” Xiang Nan nodded and smiled.


    Because when the emperor chooses a concubine, appearance is not the first consideration, family background is, and political marriage is the main factor.


    ??In addition, Emperor Guangxu was just a puppet, and Cixi was in charge of the selection. She would not choose those beautiful and charming little goblins when choosing concubines, so the appearance of the concubines is naturally questionable.


    This can be seen from the photos of concubines in the late Qing Dynasty that have been handed down. Most of them look indescribable.
