Chapter 20: The Prince Overdraws His Strength in Treasure Hunt
Half an hour later, Feng Qiongzhu gently removed the silver needles from her body, washed the ointment off her face, and carefully washed every strand of hair. Her movements were gentle and graceful.
After washing, she stood up from the tub, water drops falling from the ends of her hair. Honeysuckle brought a soft towel. Feng Qiongzhu shook her head and said softly, "I'll do it myself. You help me pour out the water in the tub."
Feng Qiongzhu changed into a plain dress with the hem of her skirt swaying gently. She walked to the window, pushed it open, and let the fresh air flow into the room.
As the night deepened, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
The medicinal liquid itself was a little difficult for Feng Qiongzhu to bear after her weak body was weakened by the stimulation of the acupuncture points by the silver needles, forcing the body to absorb too much. She was completely exhausted. She stroked her skin, which was becoming increasingly delicate, and she gradually fell asleep.
That night, she was like a bright pearl, shining alone in her own world, enjoying the tranquility and beauty that belonged to her.
The next morning, sunlight shone into Feng Qiongzhu's cabin.
A knock on the door interrupted her sweet dream and she opened her eyes.
Feng Qiongzhu was very upset. She woke up too late today and missed Aunt Li's breakfast.
She hurried to the kitchen. As soon as she entered, the aroma of ginseng chicken soup filled the air. The rich ginseng flavor made Feng Qiongzhu salivate.
Aunt Li lovingly brought a large bowl of chicken soup and said with a smile, "This is stewed with yesterday's pheasant. It's specially prepared for you. I also added your tonic herbs, including that century-old ginseng. Didn't you ask me to give you some tonic?"
Feng Qiongzhu's eyes flashed with surprise, and she took the hot chicken soup and said gratefully: "Thank you, Aunt Li!"
"Drink slowly, there's still a whole pot in the pot. The prince also drank a bowl this morning. He must be exhausted from going out these past two days. I saw that the prince looked a little exhausted."
After hearing what Aunt Li said, Feng Qiongzhu realized that the sickly boy had been getting up early and coming back late every day for the past two days, and he really seemed very tired.
It seems that we have to speed up the treatment and not let him get into any accidents. After all, we still have to rely on him to find the treasure.
Feng Qiongzhu took a sip of the soup, the hot soup flowed down her throat, and she instantly felt full of strength.
She put down the bowl and looked at the fire in the kitchen, her mind full of thoughts.
"Aunt Li, the prince always comes back very late at night?"
Aunt Li thought for a moment and said, "That's not right. They came back very late these past two days. I had to heat up the food in the evening and wait for them to eat when they came back."
Feng Qiongzhu walked into the yard and a faint scent of grass filled her nose.
I saw several guards sorting the medicinal materials. They were skilled and meticulous.
Several medicinal herbs with red flowers were dried separately and the soil was cleaned up thoroughly. Feng Qiongzhu was very satisfied with this.
She noticed that the number of Corydalis yanhusuo collected yesterday was very small, only four or five plants, which was obviously not enough to be used as medicinal materials after drying, which made her frown.
Considering how hard the sickly man was working, perhaps we should consider using more. After all, he needed to soak in a huge iron pot, endure the high temperature of the pot bottom, and use silver needles to stimulate the acupuncture points to guide the medicine to penetrate into the bone marrow. This kind of pain is definitely not something that ordinary people can endure...
Even after the rhizomes of four or five plants were dried and processed, there were not many left, so I had to give him half.
Feng Qiongzhu couldn't help feeling a little reluctant, and hoped that Old Man Du could bring back more today.
I saw Nuanchun busy sorting medicinal materials in the pharmacy. The medicine cabinet, which was half empty yesterday, was full today.
She leaned over to check curiously: "Nuanchun, did Anqing buy the herbs early this morning? And there are many that I didn't see yesterday."
I saw that all the medicinal materials such as angelica, donkey-hide gelatin, rehmannia root and red dates were added.
"Help me pick out these four ingredients today: Polygonum multiflorum, mulberry leaves, Vitex rotundifolia, and Platycladus orientalis leaves. I will use them to make ointment today." Feng Qiongzhu ordered.
"Ah? Girl, are you still making ointment today?" Nuanchun was a little surprised. She had worked so hard yesterday, so were she going to continue today?
Feng Qiongzhu looked at Nuanchun's surprised expression and explained, "Yesterday we boiled something for facial mask, and today we boil something for washing hair. We girls should be nicer to ourselves and make ourselves beautiful, right? Nuanchun, don't you want your hair to be black, shiny and flowing?"
After hearing this, Nuanchun immediately showed a happy smile: "Girl, let's hurry up and make it, I also want to have beautiful hair."
"We won't be boiling as much as yesterday, so we won't need a big pot. Let's use the medicine stove to boil it a few more times today. If we use a big pot again, I'm afraid Old Man Du will really go crazy."
"There are only four herbs. Cut them into smaller pieces like yesterday. Nuanchun, ask Anqing to go out and buy me some soap beans. By the way, is Anqing in the mansion now?"
Nuanchun replied, "After Anqing delivered the herbs here, he went out with the prince. Girl, if you want to buy something, just let Rendong go. She is strong and walks fast, so she will be able to buy it soon."
Feng Qiongzhu nodded, agreeing with Nuanchun: "Then let Rendong go, let her come back soon so we can start making medicine earlier."
Nuanchun immediately went out to find honeysuckle, and Feng Qiongzhu began to prepare the herbs. She carefully cut the four herbs into small pieces and then put them into the medicine stove.
While she was busy tending the medicine furnace, she was thinking about tomorrow's treatment plan. She knew that this treatment was crucial for the sick boy and she had to do her best.
After a while, Honeysuckle came back with a bag of soapberries in her hand.
"Girl, I bought the soapberry."
Feng Qiongzhu took the soap and nodded, "Okay, go and take a rest, I can handle this myself."
Honeysuckle replied yes and stepped back.
Feng Qiongzhu put the soap beans into the medicine stove and continued to boil them.
As time passed, the aroma of medicine gradually spread.
While Feng Qiongzhu was boiling the medicine, she was thinking about how her hair would become beautiful. She couldn't help but reveal an expectant look, as if she had already seen herself having a head of shiny black hair.
Finally, it was ready, and Feng Qiongzhu carefully poured the medicine into a porcelain jar.
Feng Qiongzhu planned to prepare medicinal materials in the afternoon, hoping to implement medicinal bath treatment for the sick seedling tomorrow.
The acupuncture method of Qixing Huiyang Needle is extremely demanding, and one must maintain the best state to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment.
Therefore, she decided to drink the whole pot of century-old ginseng chicken soup to replenish her energy.
The midday sun shines through the window onto her, casting her busy shadow, which actually forms a picture.
At this moment, Feng Qiongzhu looked fresh and bright, as if she had brought infinite vitality. She was no longer the lifeless look when they first met.
