Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 583 Presenting Treasures

   Simple pleasures.

   At least in the eyes of many people, happiness is a luxury, and Emperor Hongzhi was frugal, so he was strict with himself, and he was inevitably harsh on himself.

  In Xishan, Emperor Hongzhi just realized that food is not about luxury or ingredients, but about people. If you find the right people, everything can be turned into magic.

Just like this big yellow croaker, it is really worthless, and it is rare in Beijing, but it is said that hundreds of thousands of catties are captured every day along the southeast coast to supply the needs of the southeast coast. The common people can't digest it and have to make it into kippers.

   But such a worthless thing, using it to cook soup and porridge, made Emperor Hongzhi more enjoyable to eat than how many precious ingredients.

Emperor Hongzhi quickly ate up the porridge. Now his body has recovered a bit and he can walk around, but he can't leave Xishan. Just in case, he needs to stay here for at least half a month. I let myself go out for a walk, and came out of the bedroom where I was convalescing, there was a group of imperial guards, the imperial guards were not wearing distinctive armor, they were all casual clothes, but they were all dense, within a radius of fifty feet, it was airtight, not a single fly was caught It is allowed, but it is impossible to pass.

  Emperor Hongzhi waved to Wen Yansheng and asked him to accompany him for a walk outside.

  Wen Yansheng nodded.

Emperor Hongzhi had a good impression of Wen Yansheng. He could see Wen Yansheng's indifference to fame and fortune. It was just this kind of person. .

  In the distance, a balloon rose slowly.

  The balloon in Xishan Mountain has become a scenic spot. Many people come here because they want to take a balloon ride and feel the taste of seeing all the small mountains.

  But because it is only for sightseeing, the balloon will be suspended by the cable and rise into the air. When it reaches a certain height, it will be tightly pulled by the cable, so that it will not float far away, and it will be safer.

  On the balloon, there will always be someone wailing like a pig, it's so scary, it's so high.

  Emperor Hongzhi raised his head and looked at the few balloons floating in the sky that day: "Have Wen Qing's family tried to go up there?"

  Wen Yansheng shook her head: "I dare not go up."

  Emperor Hongzhi showed regret: "Wen Qing's family didn't dare."

  Wen Yansheng said: "Everyone has their own interest, and my interest is only in cooking, but I am not interested in other things."

  Emperor Hongzhi nodded and nodded: "There are so many new things in Xishan, but they can attract all kinds of people, right? Then, Mr. Wen is not interested in fame and wealth, but why is he willing to stay in Xishan?"

  Wen Yansheng thought for a while: "Because there are abundant ingredients here."

  Hongzhi smiled: "Yes, I actually forgot that there is a Tuntian Thousand Households here."

  Wen Yansheng said with a smile: "Speaking of which, recently, a new ingredient has been released here, which is very interesting. Unfortunately, it is too spicy. Your Majesty is still ill and cannot taste it."

   "Huh?" Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback, but his curiosity aroused in his heart: "But I don't know what it is. After a few days, I recovered from my illness, and Mr. Wen sent me to have a look."

   "I obey the order." Wen Yansheng nodded.

   "I don't know the prince, where can I rest?" Emperor Hongzhi thought.

  Wen Yansheng said: "It is raised in the silkworm room not far away."

  Emperor Hongzhi deliberately said casually: "He must be suffering."

   "Fortunately, His Royal Highness is in a good mood recently..."

   "Not bad?" Emperor Hongzhi was slightly taken aback, looking at Wen Yansheng intently.

  Wen Yansheng smiled and said: "Marquis Dingyuan and him are thinking about a new ingredient, which is the one that I just mentioned. It is said that it is to treat the Empress Dowager."

   "The empress dowager treats the illness..." Emperor Hongzhi was slightly stunned.

  Wen Yansheng said: "Actually, not only the Empress Dowager, but also Your Majesty. Your Majesty also has some minor illnesses. With this ingredient, it can be cured."

  Emperor Hongzhi shivered subconsciously, that Nizi suddenly became happy, no matter how he felt, it seemed...a little...

  Emperor Hongzhi only nodded his head, not to show his family ugliness, and smiled: "Really, I am quite looking forward to it."

  ...

  The ninth day of being cut.

  Probably, Zhu Houzhao's injury has healed a lot, almost no longer the tingling feeling, and he can let himself go when he urinates.

He decided not to blame Fang Jifan, it's meaningless to blame. During the days when he was ill, a group of people from the medical school, led by Su Yue, began to operate. Therefore, when Zhu Houzhao recovered from his illness, he found that he was no longer in the silkworm room. The place where the genius doctor comes in handy.

   But when Fang Jifan came out with a treasure, Zhu Houzhao was suddenly happy.

   This thing can really cure diseases, and it can cure serious diseases.

  So, Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan started tinkering again. They found a stone trough, and then threw the dried ingredients in with a wooden hammer, beat them vigorously, and finally took out the beaten ingredients like powder.

   Ache…

  Zhu Houzhao felt his nose sore and sneezed hard. The effect was strong and he loved it.

   But at this time he has injuries on his body, but he can't touch this.

  This thing... can really cure diseases?

  Zhu Houzhao had many questions in his heart.

Fang Jifan was very happy. The peppers that Xu Jing collected from the West are now widely planted in the Western Mountains. It is finally time to harvest. Not many people eat peppers now. All dried and then crushed into powder.

  This pepper is far more than just a simple seasoning. In fact, at the beginning of its appearance, people used it as a special medicine.

Fang Jifan used a little chili powder, mixed it into Wen Yansheng's Thirteen Fragrances, tasted it, um, the spiciness was a little bit, mainly because he used a small amount, so it was fine, after that, he mixed it with chili powder The thirteen incense sticks were handed over to Zhu Houzhao.

   After that, there was another bottle, which was pepper water, and Zhu Houzhao brought it along with him.

  Zhu Houzhao's health improved a lot, but he didn't dare to ride a horse. Whenever he thought of riding a horse, he felt pain in his stomach, so he happily entered the palace in a sedan chair.

  Hearing that the prince entered the palace to have an audience, Renshou Palace and Kunning Palace were both busy.

  The prince is really fine, otherwise, after a while, he would be able to bounce around again.

  The Empress Dowager and Empress Zhang have been thinking about this guy all day long. Now that they heard that he can take the initiative to enter the palace for an audience, they are overjoyed.

  Zhu Houzhao went to Renshou Palace and saw the Empress Dowager and Empress Zhang together. He stepped forward, although his walking posture was a bit strange, but he still bowed down in a proper manner: "I have seen my great-grandmother and my mother."

  The Empress Dowager and Empress Zhang looked at Zhu Houzhao, um...it seemed to be the same, except that the walking posture was a bit strange.

  Of course, it’s better not to mention this matter, so as not to embarrass everyone.

   Mrs. Zhou said with a smile: "How is the prince recently?"

  Zhu Houzhao tilted his head and thought for a while: "I'm fine, but my heart is hurt."

   Mrs. Zhou and Empress Zhang looked at each other in blank dismay. Then, Mrs. Zhou winked at the eunuchs, and everyone exited knowingly.

  Ms. Zhou took a deep breath and said: "My son, the matter is very important. Don't blame your father, your father is also for the community."

  Zhu Houzhao nodded, and agreed: "How dare Sun Chen. Sun Chen came here because of his great-grandmother's illness."

   "Oh?" Zhou looked at Zhu Houzhao intently.

   "Great-grandmother has always suffered from chilblain, today Sun Chen has a good medicine and wants to offer it."

As he said, he took out the chili water and thirteen spices in his sleeve: "This bottle, you can mix it with water, and use it when your great-grandmother washes her feet or takes a bath, or mix it with some water, and wipe the affected mouth. And In this bottle, you can order someone to add some to the ingredients, don’t put too much, just a little, and put some in every meal of great-grandmother’s meals, maybe the frostbite will be cured.”

   Zhou's slightly stunned.

She is too old, her body is cold, and the older she is, the blood flow is not smooth. She has had chilblain twenty years ago. Every winter to spring, her hands and feet are inevitably swollen and her skin is festered. Waiting for the pain is the most unbearable. Sometimes, it is really uncomfortable. The imperial doctors have been using medicine, but the effect is not great. Over time, when it is cold, the Empress Dowager feels that life is better than death.

   Hearing that Zhu Houzhao could be cured with the things contained in these two bottles, Zhou couldn't help but said, "Did Fang Jifan make up this again?"

  Zhu Houzhao said: "It was created by Sun Chen and Fang Jifan."

Hearing this, Zhou's heart grew a glimmer of hope, it seems that Fang Jifan really did it, she said with a smile: "Very good, Aijia wants to try it, I hope it will be effective. "

  Now it’s only spring and the weather is still cold. The empress dowager's chilblain has not yet healed, and these days, it has disturbed her even more. As long as there is any cure, she is willing to try it.

   It's just that the empress dowager is still a little worried about whether this old disease that has been more than 20 years old will be cured.

  Empress Zhang was also surprised, but she didn't show her expression. She smiled and said, "It's hard for the prince to have such filial piety. Your imperial grandmother didn't love you for nothing."

  Zhu Houzhao said: "Sun Chen also learned that this thing can cure frostbite, so he came here quickly. Great-grandmother is good to Sun Chen, and Sun Chen is naturally good to great-grandmother, but some people, if they are not good to Sun Chen, Sun Chen..."

   "Ahem..." The Empress Dowager coughed: "These days, I'm going to live well, so don't have any weird thoughts anymore."

  Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to say: "Yes."

  Empress Zhang couldn't help saying: "These days, you need to control your body."

  Zhu Houzhao thought this was weird, and thought for a long time: "Oh, I see."

   Inadvertently, the Empress Dowager and Queen Zhang looked at each other, and they both read something worth looking forward to from each other's eyes.

   Really... Are there any grandchildren?

  ...

  The thirty-second alliance leader Qiu Huaihanmeng was born. Qiu Huaihanmeng's classmate Tiger, if I remember correctly, was the leader of Tiger when he was an old book. Fate, big brother.
