[Qing Chuan] Have a meal in the harem

Whether it was Yimin Zhuoyuan or the maids and guards, they all kept silent, and no one told Kangxi about this.

After all, it's about the emperor's face, who knows if the emperor will become angry and even you will bear a grudge?

Based on this calculation, the experienced chefs in the Imperial Dining Room probably wouldn't say anything.

As for Xiaozhuang?

She doesn't know if she can taste it, and even if she can, it won't be exposed, after all, what matters is not a bastard, but the emperor's filial piety, why bother to spoil the emperor's happiness.

Everyone is tacit understanding.

……

It's approaching evening.

Playing role-playing with Kangxi for a day, although Yi Min was very happy, she was also a little tired, finally went back to the palace, had a hasty dinner, washed and rested.

I never thought that when I woke up, the harem would change.

The fifth elder brother kept it clean!

This is fatal. In the early Qing Dynasty, smallpox was simply a fearsome scourge, as honorable as Emperor Shunzhi, and he fell under its ravages.

Being called up early in the morning by Qingmei, Yimin was stunned by her machine-gun-like words before getting out of bed.

"Stop, stop, stop," Yi Min covered her ears, "Speak slowly! What's wrong with Fifth Brother?"

Qingmei hurriedly said: "Today, there was news from the Yinshi South Third Institute that the fifth elder brother had a high fever and a rash all over his body. He has been checked by many imperial physicians, and it is confirmed that he has smallpox!"

Yimin woke up instantly.

She stood up in a jerk, and the first thing she said was: "Has the Nansan Institute been sealed?"

Smallpox is an infectious disease. Her family and Concubine Tong's Sangege have three daughters, and they are all the most immature and delicate ages. They cannot be infected.

And not to mention children, even adults are very dangerous, okay?

Without waiting for Qingmei to answer, she quickly asked again: "Where's the imperial concubine? She didn't go to Nan San Institute?"

It doesn't matter to her, the original owner had smallpox at the age of four or five, and the body has its own antibodies, so there would be no problem under normal circumstances, but she didn't know if Zhuo Yuan had it, and never thought of asking before.

Who would have thought it would happen so suddenly.

She vaguely remembered that Prince Baocheng had smallpox, but she didn't remember that elder brother Baoqing also had smallpox!

But I am afraid of something.

Qingmei smiled bitterly and said: "The imperial doctor made a conclusion, and the third South Institute was closed, but... the imperial concubine rushed to the hospital after receiving the news that the fifth elder brother was ill, and she had been there for almost an hour, but the emperor The frame hasn't arrived yet, but it's on the way..."

Yimin's eyes darkened.

Kangxi was also a person who had smallpox once, so he was naturally fine, but Zhuo Yuan was weak, and he managed to get better in the past few years, but he was not a physique that could fight against smallpox!

She looked at Qingmei expectantly, "The imperial concubine should have had smallpox... right?"

Qingmei: "This, this servant doesn't know either."

Yimin couldn't sit still anymore, "No, I have to go to Nansan Institute," she said to Qingmei, "If you haven't had smallpox, don't go there, you should quickly find some court ladies and eunuchs who have had smallpox, there really aren't any, Just find the strongest body, the sooner the better..."

"Yes!"

The matter was so important, Qing Mei didn't dare to neglect it, and hurriedly went to arrange it.

Yi Min turned her head back and asked Aunt Lu: "Auntie, I'm going to the Nansan No. [-] Office to have a look. Before I come back, please take care of Yongshou Palace, isolate all those who have fever, and don't go to work for those who have been out yesterday." Now, stay in your own room, have food passed in through the window, wait for a few days to see, and release it if you have no symptoms, take extraordinary measures in extraordinary times, and if anyone disobeys, they will be dealt with strictly!"

"Especially at Sigege, there can be no mistakes or omissions. You can find someone to go to the big dining room to get some rice, noodles, vegetables and meat. If you can't go out these few days, you won't go out. You can cook some simple meals in the small kitchen..."

Smallpox is also divided into heavy and light. If it is light, it is fine. As long as it is not sick, you can basically survive it. But if it is heavy, it will be troublesome, and the fatality rate is terribly high!

Aunt Lu nodded cautiously: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there will be no mistakes in Yongshou Palace with slaves here!"

Without time to explain too much, Yimin took Luliu who also suffered from smallpox and a few young eunuchs carrying sedan chairs, and hurried all the way to the South Third Institute.

On the road, I ran into Concubine Tong who was also rushing over.

"Why are you here?" Concubine Tong shouted when she saw her from afar.

Yi Min also shouted: "Why are you here again? I had smallpox when I was young, how about you?"

The sedan chair got closer, Concubine Tong gasped and said, "Me too... But the imperial concubine can't live!"

Zhuo Yuan never had smallpox?

Yimin's heart was beating violently.

Her head was dizzy, she stretched almost her body out of the sedan chair, stared at Concubine Tong with wide eyes and asked, "How do you know?"

Concubine Tong was also trying to calm herself down, she hurriedly said: "I entered the palace in the same batch as the imperial concubine, and my family has of course inquired about it, she has never had smallpox!"

She was extremely sure, what she said was categorical.

A wave of extreme cold hit her whole body, Yimin trembled uncontrollably, she was not in the mood to speak, and could only urge the sedan chair to go faster.

When she arrived at Nansan Institute, she didn't use green willows to help her, so she jumped off the frame by herself and ran all the way, but was stopped by the guards.

"Concubine Wen, the emperor has a decree that no one is allowed to enter the Nansan Institute, and I ask Concubine Wen to go back to the palace first."

Yimin managed to keep her mind steady, and she asked, "Are the emperor and imperial concubine inside?"

The guard nodded: "Go back to your mother, yes."

Yimin said solemnly: "Then please go and report to the emperor and the imperial concubine, saying that both Ben Gong and Concubine Tong have suffered from smallpox, and they are not afraid. I just ask the emperor to allow you to visit the fifth elder brother in Nan San Institute..."

Concubine Tong also echoed: "You report it yourself, the emperor decides whether to do it or not."

The guard hesitated for a moment, and said: "Then please wait here, I will report to the emperor."

……

In the Qinle Courtyard where Fifth Elder Brother Baoqing lived, Kangxi’s face was pitch black, and no one dared to clean up the fragments of teacups all over the floor. The court ladies and eunuchs were kneeling inside and outside the courtyard, either trembling or crying bitterly...

But no one dared to make a sound, and a needle could be heard.

The guard trotting over seemed a little prominent, and as soon as he stood still, Kangxi asked, "What's the matter?"

The guard: "Go back to the emperor, Concubine Wen and Concubine Tong have arrived. The two empresses said that they had suffered from smallpox and wanted to come in to visit the fifth elder brother, and to share some worries for the emperor. Look, your majesty...but let the two empresses suffer from smallpox. Go back first?"

Kangxi's face softened when he heard the words, "Concubine Wen and Concubine Tong have a heart, since they are not afraid of infection, let them come in, just as I have something to look for them."

Guard: "Yes, I will obey you."

Yi Min was already tired of waiting, and as soon as the guard came out, she asked from a distance: "How? Has the Emperor agreed?"

The guards didn't dare to delay, they rushed over quickly, cupped their hands and said: "The emperor invites the two ladies to go in."

As soon as his words fell, Yi Min raised her foot and rushed in, Concubine Tong followed closely behind, and Lu Liu was a step behind, remembering to bring a purse for the guard, and said: "Thanks for your hard work."

Yimin has always been in good health. Although she was panting all the way, she was still able to persevere. Concubine Tong couldn't do it. She has been pampered and pampered for many years, so she is inevitably more delicate, and she can't keep up with her within two steps.

I could only shout weakly from behind: "Slow down, wait for me, you are not a doctor, so what's the use of running fast?"

I was too anxious, but Yimin knew that Concubine Tong was also kind, so she slowed down, turned around and grabbed her forearm, and said, "I'll take you away."

Concubine Tong: ...

Does it make a difference?No, it's still very fast!

But she didn't say anything else, just tried her best to keep up with Yi Min's pace, fortunately, after running for a short distance, the other party's speed slowed down a bit, which was still within her tolerance range.

As soon as they stepped into the gate of Qinle Yuan, the two felt a low air pressure. They looked at each other, and their hearts sank.

"The concubine has seen the emperor!"

Kangxi looked at them and saw that the two of them had flushed cheeks and were out of breath, so he knew that they had rushed all the way here. He couldn't help but sigh for the sincerity of Concubine Tong and Concubine Wen.

Most men in the world hope that their women are kind and compassionate, and Kangxi is also in this part.

He said gently, "Sit down."

The two sat down as promised, Yi Min wanted to talk as soon as she was seated, but Concubine Tong took the lead.

She bent forward and said with concern: "I don't know how the fifth elder brother is doing. The concubine and sister Wen are very worried."

Facing Kangxi's satisfied gaze, Yimin could only swallow the words on her lips, and nodded along with Concubine Tong's words.

With a sigh, Kangxi said sadly: "The imperial doctor said that Baoqing's disease is dangerous, and he drew up a few prescriptions, but Baoqing still has to fight it by himself."

He has also suffered from smallpox, so he naturally knows the danger. Seeing a child under four years old suffering from this, he can't help but think of himself back then, and he feels a little sad.

In Yimin's impression, there was only information about how to prevent smallpox, but nothing about the treatment.

After all, in modern times, smallpox has long been declared eradicated and has become history.

And she is not a medical background, she doesn't even know how to get cowpox, and she doesn't dare to command blindly, for fear that if she fails to save people, she will harm them instead.

So now I can only say a few words of comfort with Concubine Tong dryly.

Just about to find the right time to ask about Zhuo Yuan's situation, concubine Tong took the lead again.

"Your Majesty, what happened to the imperial concubine and concubine Hui?"

As soon as this sentence came out, Kangxi fell silent.

Both of them felt a thump in their hearts.

Especially Yimin, she couldn't help thinking: something happened to Zhuo Yuan!

With a look of panic on her face, she hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, is it the imperial concubine..."

The rest of the words were unlucky, she didn't want to say it, but both Kangxi and Concubine Tong understood what she meant.

Kangxi didn't hide anything, he said: "Neither the imperial concubine nor concubine Hui had smallpox, as soon as the imperial physician diagnosed her, the imperial concubine asked to find a courtyard in the third South Institute to seal herself off, and concubine Hui was worried about keeping her clean, so she worked here. Leyuan found a room to live in, and only checked for symptoms for a few days..."

He looked at Concubine Wen and Concubine Tong, and sighed, "The imperial concubine asked me to leave the palace affairs to you two for the time being. Be sure..."

"Your Majesty!" Yi Min interrupted him suddenly.

Kangxi stopped and looked at her with Concubine Tong.

Taking a deep breath, Yi Min found a clean place among the debris on the floor and knelt down, solemnly said: "Sister Tong Concubine is the most experienced in managing the harem, but there is really no need for concubines. I am in a panic, but I need someone to sit in the town, and I ask the emperor to allow my concubines to stay in the third house in the south, and take care of the fifth elder brother and the imperial concubine for the emperor..."

Even Kangxi was stunned, he couldn't help but think of the scene where Concubine Wen "desperately" blocked the flying knife for him last time, and sighed in his heart.

——Concubine Wen is really the most affectionate and righteous person in the harem!

His eyes are very gentle.

As confident as Kangxi was, he naturally wouldn't think that his status in Concubine Wen's heart was inferior to that of the imperial concubine. He only felt that if he was the one who was in doubt at the moment, Concubine Wen would definitely be more anxious.

He also thought that the Nansan Institute really needed a high-ranking concubine to guard it, and Concubine Wen was not afraid of smallpox, so she nodded and agreed.

He also instructed: "It is important to protect the Qing and the imperial concubine, but Concubine Wen must also take care of her body, don't work too hard."

Yi Min nodded, "Then the concubine will go to see the imperial concubine first, and also make some staffing arrangements."

Concubine Tong also said: "The concubine also resigned first, thanks to the trust of the emperor and the imperial concubine, the concubine will definitely take care of the harem well, and will not disappoint the emperor and the concubine."

Kangxi nodded, and the two left together.

Walking out of the Qinle Courtyard, the two looked at each other for a moment, Concubine Tong said softly: "I won't see the imperial concubine, please say hello for me."

Although the existence of the imperial concubine blocked her way to be a queen, Concubine Tong never thought of letting her die. The imperial concubine was fair and talented, and she actually admired her and recognized her status in her heart.

It would be a pity if such a woman were to die here.

Yimin said good, and said: "Aunt Lu is watching in Yongshou Palace, I'm not very worried, but Aya is alone in Chengqian Palace, and I need you to take care of her, that child is smart, and ordinary words can't be coaxed." She, just tell the truth."

For some reason, she never thought of entrusting Aya to Kangxi, even though she knew that Kangxi would definitely protect Aya with all her heart.

Concubine Tong replied very seriously: "Don't worry, I will bring Da Gege to Chuxiu Palace later, and raise him with Tai Fenzhu, and I will definitely not let her lose a hair!"

Seeing her serious and serious face, Yimin suddenly relaxed a little, pressed the other person's shoulder, didn't say thank you, but said: "When Ah Yuan is fine, I will treat you to dinner."

Concubine Tong smiled, "Okay, I'll wait."

……

Yimin had no intention of leaving Nansan Institute, watched Concubine Tong's carriage leave, ordered Luliu to send someone to report a letter to Aunt Lu through the gate of Nansan Institute, and then walked towards Zhuo Yuan's courtyard without turning a single step.

The courtyard that was cleaned up temporarily was definitely not too meticulous. As soon as Yi Min entered the gate, she glanced at it and found that there were still several fallen leaves that had not been cleaned, and it was quite lonely.

My heart suddenly felt aggrieved.

If she lived by herself, she would definitely not care about these things. She herself doesn't care much about the people who live there, but when she thinks that Zhuo Yuan lives in this kind of place and will stay there for several days, she unconsciously feels sad.

But now is not the time to think about it, she trotted all the way towards the house.

Unexpectedly, Sang Ruo just came out of the house, Yimin couldn't stop, and the two bumped into each other head-on.

Fortunately, the fall was not heavy, and she didn't need the green willow to help her, so she patted her clothes and stood up, and even dragged Sang Ruo up.

She took a look at Sang Ruo's expression, and seeing that she was still calm, she hurriedly asked, "How is Ah Yuan?"

Sang Ruo also looked at her, with a smile on her face, and said, "The empress is in the dormitory, and this servant will lead Concubine Wen there."

With Sang Ruo leading the way, Yi Min soon saw Zhuo Yuan.

She should have bathed and changed her clothes, her hair was draped behind her, and she was slightly damp. She had a beautiful face and stood in front of the window without any jewelry.

Hearing the movement, she glanced back and was stunned when she saw Yimin.Immediately, the eye sockets were reddish, showing a rare fragility.

But Yimin's heart ached to the core.She has known Zhuo Yuan for so long, but she has never seen her like this.

He hurried forward and hugged her.

Surprised by the opponent's actions, Zhuo Yuan said in a panic: "Don't get close..."

Pulling him into her arms at once, Yimin comforted her, "It's all right, I had smallpox when I was young, so I'm not afraid of it."

Patting her on the back, Yimin said in a very gentle tone: "A Yuan, don't be afraid, I will always be here, I have already agreed with the emperor, and I will stay in the third South Institute until A Yuan is fine. , these days I will be here with you..."

— Can this make you feel more at ease and less afraid.

At an angle she couldn't see, Zhuo Yuan leaned on her shoulder and smiled reassuringly.

……

In order to detect Zhuo Yuan's physical condition in time, Yimin did not accept the room arranged by Sang Ruo, but went to sleep with Zhuo Yuan with her own bedding.

She was so nervous that she held Zhuo Yuan's wrist even in her sleep, always alert to the change of his body temperature.

At the same time, the imperial physician also prescribed some medicines to prevent it.

But even so, on the third night after the fifth elder brother found out smallpox, Zhuo Yuan still had a fever.

Yimin noticed it immediately. Although she was anxious, she was still mentally prepared, and hurriedly called more than half of the imperial physicians stationed in the third South Institute.

Several imperial physicians took a pulse and discussed with each other for a while, and then sent one of the oldest imperial physicians to cup his hands at the worried Concubine Wen: "Eighty percent of the chances are that the imperial concubine is suffering from smallpox..."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking slowly, Yi Min asked, "Is it mild or severe?"

"This..." The imperial physician hesitated for a moment, then said: "It needs to be observed for another two days."

I was very dissatisfied with this answer in my heart, but Yi Min also knew the virtues of the Tai Hospital, and always kept her words on the line, no matter what the disease was, she would talk about the serious one first.

"I don't understand medical principles, and the health of the imperial concubine has to be relied on by several imperial concubines, and I have invited several imperial physicians to do their best. If there is anything missing, just say it. Once the imperial concubine recovers, no matter whether it is this palace or the imperial concubine, there will be a big thank you in the future! "Yimin's tone was extremely sincere.

Several imperial physicians said in succession: "Don't dare, this is a matter of the minister's duty..."

Yi Min nodded and forced a smile.

……

Yi Min spends most of the day guarding Zhuo Yuan, and the rest of the time she has to visit Concubine Hui and Fifth Elder Brother. The maids and eunuchs of the third South Institute should be comforted carefully, and some infected palace people should also be arranged for treatment. thing……

In just a few days, she became much haggard. Occasionally, when Zhuo Yuan woke up, the other party would persuade her to go to rest.

In fact, what really makes Yi Min feel difficult is not the heavy workload, but the fallen figures one after another, not to mention Brother Baoqing, just Zhuo Yuan's small courtyard, which has been moved out these days There are four or five people.

Fortunately, Luliu and Sangruo had suffered from smallpox, and with their help, Yimin could manage to stabilize the situation.

But everyone fell down, which made Yimin panic for a long time. She had to guard Zhuo Yuan, and only by looking at him could she feel at ease.

During this period, although Kangxi sent people to inquire many times, he did not come over in person again.

And Yimin was not in the mood to care about him.

On the No. 19 day when Zhuo Yuan was diagnosed, the imperial physician finally confirmed that Zhuo Yuan's illness was not serious, not very dangerous, highly curable, and gradually getting better.

At that moment Yimin almost cried with joy, Zhuo Yuan fell on the bed, looked at her pale and weak, and laughed along with her.

After the imperial doctor left, Yimin helped Zhuo Yuan up and fed her some warm porridge. She was familiar with her movements and her hands were steady. It looked like she had done it many times, and it was true. These days, Yimin I don't know how many jobs robbed Sang Ruo, almost everything by himself.

After feeding a bowl of porridge, Yimin smiled softly at Zhuo Yuan: "Did you hear that? The imperial doctor said you will be fine!"

"I'm just sick, not deaf, why can't I hear?" Zhuo Yuan's health gradually improved, and he also had the strength to speak.

She stretched out her hand to caress the blue and black eyes of Yimin, and said distressedly: "You haven't slept well for several days, and you have lost weight. Now the imperial doctor says that I am fine, so you can go and rest. You clean up another room."

Yimin has been stationed in Zhuo Yuan's house for the past few days. At first, she slept on the same bed with Zhuo Yuan. Later, Zhuo Yuan developed a rash. A few quilts were spread on the floor, and they had been laid on the floor for more than half a month in this room.

It stands to reason that the scars left by smallpox are difficult to remove, but there are many effective and secret recipes that have not been lost, both in the folk and in the palace.

Even when the original owner had smallpox back then, the Dong family was able to find a prescription to remove the scar marks for her.

Not to mention the palace.

The imperial physician in charge of this matter also provided a kind of ointment, which is specially for such scars.

But the premise is that the herpes cannot be broken.

The appearance of the concubine in the harem is really important, even if Zhuo Yuan is the imperial concubine, it is the same, the matter is of great importance, Yimin dare not be careless in the slightest.

Fortunately, hard work paid off. One month later, when the imperial physician announced that Zhuo Yuan had fully recovered, there were no obvious scars on Zhuo Yuan's body, and the only few scars were gradually disappearing.

The fifth elder brother Baoqing also survived.

Concubine Hui was very lucky, she stayed in her room honestly and was not infected. After being released, she cried a lot while hugging her recovered elder brother Baoqing.

After staying in Nansan Institute for 47 days, when she and Zhuo Yuan walked out together, Yi Min looked back at the gate of Nansan Institute, and felt as if she had passed away.

She couldn't help shaking Zhuo Yuan's arm.

Zhuo Yuan turned to look at her, his eyes were extremely soft, and he asked softly: "What's wrong?"

Yimin laughed, looked Zhuo Yuan up and down, walked around her again, and saw that although she was a little thinner, her complexion was ruddy and her energy was good, so she showed satisfaction.

"That's great!" she said.

The author has something to say: This chapter was played with a mobile phone while queuing. There were too many people, and the queue lasted five hours.

I hope my arm will be fine tomorrow.
