[Qing wear + Red Mansions] Guide to the Prince's Pampering Wife

Jia Yuanchun looked at Tong Jiashi in shock, and only now did he realize that he underestimated her.

On weekdays, seeing Tong Jiashi focus on the emperor and the fourth elder brother, she looked a little weak and confused, but she didn't expect her to be so ruthless when she made a move, which directly hit her weak spot.

There is no woman who does not care about children, especially the women in the palace.

Without children, no matter how much you are favored and rich, it is just a fleeting cloud. Maybe one day it will drift away and be scattered, and there is no one to rely on in the end.But if she didn't agree to the imperial concubine's request, she might not even be able to touch the passing smoke, and would have to slip out of the palace in despair for a lifetime.

Jia Yuanchun knelt down on the ground, and slowly loosened her tightly clenched hands. She kowtowed: "This servant is loyal to the empress, and the sky can learn from it. If I can reassure the empress, this servant is willing to drink this bowl of medicine."

After speaking, she took the medicine and drank it down.

Tong Jiashi closed her eyes, waved her hands for a while and said, "Go down first, clean up, and come back later to serve you."

Jia Yuanchun kowtowed again and then backed out. Tong Jiashi collapsed on the bed as if discouraged, and coughed violently. Chunhua quickly patted her on the back and said distressedly: "Your Majesty, it's time to rest now, why bother?" bother?"

"I'm just..." Tong Jiashi didn't know what she was doing now, she just came to this world once, and she always wanted to grab something.

She didn't want to talk to Chunhua more, she just said that she was too tired and went to lie down.

When Kangxi came, Tong Jiashi had fallen asleep tiredly.

She was originally thin and thin, but now she is even thinner than a real person, with the quilt covering her body, there is almost no ups and downs, her palm-sized face is pale and sunken, as if she will die in the next moment.

The palace people saw that Kangxi was in a hurry to salute, but Kangxi waved his hands away, but the movement still woke Tong Jiashi who was sleeping, she opened her eyes, and smiled weakly when she saw Kangxi: "The emperor is here."

Kangxi sat by the bed and asked, "How is today, what did the imperial doctor say?"

"It's still the same," Tong Jia smiled and pushed Kangxi away, "Cousin sit farther away, lest I get too sick."

She was so intimate, and she also called his cousin, Kangxi couldn't help but think of the timid and weak girl back then.After all these years of love, his heart suddenly softened, and he sighed: "What did the imperial doctor say?"

"It's just to lie down, there's no other way," Tong Jia said, covering her mouth with a handkerchief, coughing uncontrollably.

The maid anxiously stepped forward to pat her on the back.

"I'm fine," Tong Jiashi stopped coughing, and told the maid with a smile, "I'm neglecting the emperor, Yuan Chun is going to pour a cup of tea for the emperor."

Jia Yuanchun should be blessed.

As soon as she moved, there was a faint fragrance. Kangxi took a second look and found that this girl was also very beautiful. She was wearing the sky blue cloud satin cheongsam that court maids often wear, but her waistline was ingeniously drawn down to look slender. Peach branches are embroidered on the waist, cuffs and neckline, and matched with light pink palace flowers on the head, the whole person is like peach blossoms in spring, charming, dignified and full of vitality.

She poured the tea neatly and offered it to Kangxi, her fingers brushed gently on Kangxi's hand whether intentionally or not.

Kangxi glanced at her lightly.

After Jia Yuanchun served the tea, he quietly stood aside, as if the brief contact just now was really unintentional, but Tong Jia smiled and said: "My illness is thanks to Yuanchun, I always feel more comfortable when she is by my side."

Kangxi smiled and asked: "But is there any explanation?"

"Exactly! Cousin doesn't know, Yuan Chunyuan is born on the first day of the first lunar month, and he is the most blessed person, so he can suppress the illness."

Kangxi still didn't understand what Tong Jiashi meant, his heart that had just softened hardened a little bit, and said in a low voice: "The strange power is chaotic, don't trust it."

"What my cousin said is that if the concubine hadn't experienced it personally, she wouldn't believe it, but now she has to believe it." Tong Jia took Yuan Chun's hand and said, "I'm afraid her family also believes it. They only think that they are so lucky. I have no virtue to bear it, so I will send her to the palace. Otherwise, she is a rich lady, why bother to enter the palace and become a palace maid? Cousin doesn’t know, Yuan Chun’s original surname is Jia, and he was born in the mansion of the founder of the honorable Rong Kingdom.”

Kangxi heard Rongguo's mansion pause, and then his face became even paler: "If you are blessed, how can you be a court lady? It can be seen that it is just a lie."

Jia Yuanchun turned pale when he heard this.

Tong Jiashi coughed a few times and said with a smile, "Cousin..."

Kangxi has been lazy to talk to Tong Jiashi, seeing her calm recently, I thought she had figured it out, but I didn't expect that she was still so ignorant!

If he hadn't thought that she was ill, Kangxi would have flung his sleeves and left immediately, but now he has to say a few more perfunctory words, feeling extremely impatient.

Just when it was unbearable, a court lady came to ask the fourth elder brother and sixth elder brother to see him.

Tong Jia smiled. She was very happy that the fourth elder brother came, but she didn't want to see Yinzuo. Besides, the emperor and Yuanchun were going to match up at this moment. I'm afraid I'm tired from playing, let someone take them to eat first."

"It's not a child anymore, if you don't have time to eat something, let them come in," Kangxi said lightly.

Tong Jiashi couldn't, so he could only ask Si Age and Yinzuo to come in.

"Han Ama is here too?" Yin Zuo and Si elder brother got called to go in, only to find that Kangxi was there, and said with a smile, "I heard that the imperial concubine is ill, and fourth elder brother brought me to see."

Tong Jia couldn't hold back her smile anymore, she glanced at the fourth elder brother angrily, and said, "Thank you sixth elder brother for your concern, Huang Yuanpan is a master here, so there must be nothing wrong."

This is a refusal. Kangxi knew Tong Jia's heart knot, since she was willing not to accept Yinzuo's love, Kangxi didn't want her son to step into this muddy water, so he nodded: "Then you will take good care of it. There is something else, let's go first."

He put the teacup on the kang table, and a crisp "pop" surprised Tong Jiashi, and walked out.

"Fourth and Sixth follow," Kangxi called out to his two sons, and paused when Jia Yuanchun passed by.

Jia Yuanchun raised his head and looked at Kangxi expectantly. Kangxi swept her around, frowned and said: "The imperial concubine has a cough, but you are a personal servant, but you put on makeup and powder, what's wrong with you? I'll call you next time." Seeing that you are so unruly, send it back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and learn it again!"

After speaking, he opened the curtain and strode out the door.

The curtain fell, and the sound of footsteps gradually faded away, Yuan Chun's body slumped to the ground.

She knew that she lost the bet this time!The emperor had no intention of pampering her, and even denied the saying that she was destined to bring blessings, even the nomination of the imperial concubine was useless, how would she turn around in the future?

Tong Jia's complexion was also not good-looking, the emperor's last words seemed to be talking about Yuan Chun, but he was actually mentioning her!

Don't want her to meddle in Si elder brother's affairs?Why?The son she raised so hard, why should she turn around and give it to another woman?

Tong Jia's chest rose and fell violently, and she couldn't help coughing, and it wasn't long before the imperial doctor didn't mention it.

At this time, Kangxi came out of Chengqian Palace, striding ahead with a dark face, Yinzuo and Si Age followed behind, and couldn't help but look at each other.

They went late, and they didn't know why Kangxi was angry, but at this time, no one dared to stroke the tiger's beard, so they just followed silently.

Seeing that the fourth elder brother was preoccupied, Yin Zuo recalled Tong Jia's face, and after thinking about it, he still held the fourth elder brother: "Fourth elder brother, go and see the imperial concubine when you have time."

The fourth elder brother paused: "You mean..."

"I'm afraid time is running out," Yinzuo sighed, he didn't care about the imperial concubine, he just didn't want the fourth elder brother to leave regrets.

Although the fourth elder brother and the imperial concubine seemed to be at odds, it was a mother-child relationship of more than ten years, and Tong Jia's love for the fourth elder brother was not fake.Yinzuo worried that if the fourth elder brother failed to fulfill his filial piety before Tong Jia's death, he would miss it and regret it in the future.

Sure enough, the fourth elder brother showed a sad expression when he heard the words: "Are you serious? You didn't feel the pulse..."

"Fourth brother should be a doctor who pays attention to 'seeing, smelling, asking and feeling' in diagnosis. Pulse detection is just one of them. Those who are more powerful can know the condition just by looking at their faces."

"Understood," the fourth elder brother pursed his lips and lowered his eyelids.

Yin Zuo didn't know how to comfort them, the two looked at each other silently for a moment, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant for a while.

Kangxi suddenly stopped and turned around: "What are you two talking about, and you also want to listen to me?"

Yin Zuo snorted and laughed: "Ama Khan doesn't show his face to us?"

Kangxi choked: "Since when did I put on face?"

"You still don't admit it?" Yinzuo bumped his arm against the fourth elder brother, "fourth elder brother, do you think Khan Ama gave us face?"

The fourth elder brother was still immersed in the matter just now, subconsciously said: "Yes."

Kangxi: "..."

The anger brought by Tong Jiashi was instantly dissipated by Yin Zuo, Kangxi nodded Yin Zuo: "I think you are too free, you should read a few books!"

Yinzuo: "..."

In the end, Yin Zuo was referred by Kangxi to the Yushufang to check his homework, while the fourth elder brother was sent back to the Shangshufang as an inspection-free product because of his solid foundation.

Yinzuo was passed the school examination by Kangxi, and the seconds seemed like years, and finally he lay on the chair dying and didn't want to say a word.

Kangxi snorted coldly: "Whether you are sitting or not, standing or not, what kind of dignity is it?"

"You are my Ama. If I want to carry it in front of you, it will be so tiring." Yinzuo said with confidence.

Kangxi snorted and fell silent.

Liang Jiugong couldn't help admiring secretly. In the whole Qing Dynasty, only Sixth Brother dared to be as big or small as the emperor, but he could coax the emperor to obey him. Even the prince would not be so casual in front of the emperor.

But the emperor just likes this, the more relaxed the sixth elder brother, the more indifferent he is, the more he feels that this child is close to him, and the more he loves the sixth elder brother.

Liang Jiugong served Yinzuo tea more respectfully, and Yinzuo thanked him with a smile, and took a sip to moisten his throat.

Suddenly, Kangxi asked: "You said... the imperial concubine's time is numbered?"

Yin Zuo was stunned: "Ama Khan, you actually listen to the corner?"

"I'm standing right in front of you, but you were too absorbed in what you said and didn't notice!" Kangxi said with a dark face.

What is listening to the corner?It sounds bad or not!

Kangxi was lucky: "Since you can see the illness of the imperial concubine, is there a way to cure her?"

"If there is a way, my son would have told the fourth brother," Yin Zuo sighed, "People can heal the disease, but not the heart."

Kangxi was silent.

Although the concubine Huang Guifei often made unconscious moves after her illness, it was because of the love they grew up with and the love between husband and wife for more than ten years. Even though Kangxi annoyed her now, he did not want her to die.Thinking of the ten years of getting along with each other, I couldn't help showing a bit of sadness.

Yinzuo was silent for a while, couldn't stand the atmosphere, and changed the subject with a smile: "I remember Khan Ama said before that you can reward me with gold, silver and jewelry..."

Kangxi looked at him coldly: "Didn't I reward you with a title, you want one after you get one, it's not good to be so greedy."

"Did I want this title?" Yin Zuo said angrily, "It was you who insisted on giving me the title regardless of my wishes! You forced me to earn credit for it myself. I need support now. You can't just call Ma Run away, don't you feed the horses?"

Kangxi became interested: "What are you going to do? How much money do you need?"

"I want to build a laboratory to develop new drugs, money..." Yin Zuo made the calculations and said seriously, "...it's only two to three hundred thousand taels."

Kangxi: "..."

"Are you going to study how to use gold to make medicine?" Kangxi was very angry. Even though he was interested in the laboratory and new medicine that Yinzuo talked about, he didn't expect him to lightly pay two or three hundred thousand taels. How dare he say it?

Yinzuo sighed a long time: "I don't use gold to make medicine, but some things are more expensive than gold."

Yinzuo planned it seriously.He plans to build a laboratory, but he has all the houses. There are five yards in the east and three courtyards, but now he only lives in one of them, so he can just pick out one.

What troubled him was the utensils in the laboratory.

The requirements for the utensils used in the experiment are relatively high. He used to use silver. The chemical properties of silver are stable, but it is not conducive to observation. .

It's not like there is no glass nowadays, there is Liulichang under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the technology is limited, and the purity and light transmittance are not very good.The quality of Western products is good, but the shape cannot be specified, and the price is ridiculously high.Yinzuo asked someone to take the banknotes to buy them, but he only bought two pieces back. Yinzuo had calculated in private that the laboratory should be equipped with enough utensils, even if he went bankrupt, it would not be enough!

At that time, Yinzuo only felt that his eyes were dark, so Baba came to Kangxi for help.

The medicine he developed also benefited the Qing Dynasty. Kangxi can't just ignore it, right?

Kangxi was really able to ignore it, he said directly: "There are frequent wars ahead, and now the treasury is empty, you can figure out a way for yourself."

"..." Yinzuo, "You said you would reward me with gold and silver."

Kangxi said angrily: "I didn't intend to reward you two or three hundred thousand taels!"

Yinzuo: "...then let's count how many there are."

"Not a penny," Kangxi snorted, "If you say no, I've already used it for armaments."

Yinzuo was furious, but seeing that Kangxi had made up his mind, he had no choice but to give up.

He leaned on the Kangxi book case and sighed: "Why is this western colored glaze so expensive, but a small bottle costs several thousand taels of silver, is it a money grab? I have seen the prescription of colored glaze, but there are only a few materials. They are all very cheap. If you want to come to the West, they are not much different. They are sold at such a high price when they are resold to us in Daqing. It is just bullying us for not having that technology. If we can also develop such transparent colored glaze, we should save it. How much money!"

Yinzuo's heart moved: "Khan Ama, do you think we can find a way to get glazed technology? It doesn't matter whether we ask missionaries or exchange with Western countries, all the money saved is wasted money, and the money is used in Is it not good for us Qing people? By the way, we can exchange with the Western royal family. I heard that the nobles there like our porcelain and silk! By the way, there are also cowpox and penicillin..."

"... Tsarist Russia valued cowpox so much, and the West is no exception, not to mention penicillin. I can develop more drugs in the future. With these things, we can exchange glass technology with the West and theirs. Didn’t Jinshuyuan also come from the West for medical skills and exchange of their artillery? They sent missionaries to the Qing Dynasty, so we can send people there too, and we can exchange whatever is good!”

Yin Zuo kept brainstorming. Since he knew that he had passed through the Qing Dynasty, he would also think about how to avoid the humiliation that would happen a hundred years later.It's hateful that he knows that the country should be rich and the army should develop science and technology, but he knows nothing about it except medical skills, but now he has found a way.

There is a saying in later generations that goes well: Learn from barbarians to master skills to control barbarians!

Yinzuo looked at Kangxi with bright eyes.Kangxi didn't know about future generations, so he didn't understand Yinzuo's excitement. His interest in Western technology was limited to the appointment of existing missionaries, but when Yinzuo mentioned Jinshu, Kangxi was a little touched.

If you can find a crop like golden potatoes from the West, it will be worth paying some price.

Kangxi tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said in a low voice, "You write this booklet to me."

Yinzuo: "...I don't understand these things, Khan Ama should discuss it with his second brother. If you need a prescription, just ask me."

slip away.

Yinzuo left Qianqing Palace with mixed feelings, Kangxi refused to support him with money, but the laboratory still had to be built, otherwise he would not have credit for asking the emperor to marry him two years later, what face would he have to face Daiyu?

For now, I can only find ways to make money by myself.

But making money is not that easy. Yinzuo is best at treating diseases, but he is not stingy with dreaming about making a lot of money by treating diseases. Pharmaceuticals can make some money, but only look at the money obtained from Suxiao Jiuxin Pill and Kaisailu It is only enough for several philanthropic halls in the capital to use, and the profit from selling the finished medicine is not big enough to support the huge expenditure of the laboratory.

Yin Zuo thought about it for a few days, and listed his ideas on a sheet of paper, and finally crossed them out one by one.

After much deliberation, he came up with no idea, so he threw the pen away angrily: "Forget it, think about it tomorrow, first go ask sister-in-law for her pulse!"

"Sister-in-law is better, take this medicine first, and it's time to change the prescription next time." Yinzuo accepted the pulse diagnosis with a smile, "We still have to pay attention to diet."

"Yes, thank you Sixth Brother for your trouble." Da Fujin pushed the dim sum plate in front of Yin Zuo, "I asked Yushanfang to make new dim sum. Sixth Brother will try it."

Yin Zuo thanked with a smile, took a piece to taste, Da Fujin said with a smile: "I heard that there are some kinds of facial fats in Sixth Brother's hands that are very useful?"

"Sister-in-law also heard about it?" Yinzuo smiled, "But I just did it for Er Niang when I have nothing to do in my free time. Why is she so famous?"

"That's not true! Sixth brother's filial piety is something people talk about, not to mention sixth brother's outstanding medical skills, they all say that facial fat is very useful! Just look at Defei Empress's complexion getting better and better every day," Da Fujin Touching his own face, he said enviously, "My face is always dry and flaky recently. I tried a few types of facial oils but they didn't work. I would like to have the audacity to ask Sixth Brother for a box."

"It's not worth anything. It's an honor for my sister-in-law to use it. If you don't ask for anything, I'll ask someone to bring it to my sister-in-law later," Yinzuo laughed, "but that's according to Er Niang. The ones developed for body constitution and skin type may not be suitable for my sister-in-law, let me give it a try, if it doesn't work, stop immediately, and I will make another preparation for you."

"Why bother sixth brother?" Da Fujin was a little embarrassed.

Yinzuo pointed to the elder brother next to him, and said with a smile: "A woman is the one who pleases herself, just let the elder brother thank me well."

Big Brother rolled his eyes.

After finishing the pulse diagnosis, the elder brother asked Yinzuo to go to the study, took out a booklet and said, "Khan Ama mentioned a mission to the West, and asked me to polish and write a booklet. I heard that you came up with the idea ?”

"This?" Yin Zuo was a little surprised, "Has Ama Khan handed over this matter to elder brother?"

It stands to reason that the elder brother is good at military affairs, so this is more suitable for the prince.

"I want to take care of the military doctor's affairs, but didn't you leave it to the prince?" The elder brother snorted softly, "The prince is busy, so I can only give this to me. It's just an idea, and it will be necessary in the future." Discuss with the ministers again, it doesn't matter who does it. You always have a lot of ideas, and this matter was brought up by you, so you must have some ideas, so let's play with me."

Yinzuo and elder brother thought for a while, then a young eunuch came in to report: "Lord Nalan is here."

Big brother frowned slightly.Yinzuo got up and said, "It's getting late, I'm leaving first."

Yinzuo bid farewell and left, but confronted Nalan Mingzhu at the door, Yinzuo nodded, while Nalan Mingzhu looked surprised.

Until Yinzuo walked away for a distance, he faintly heard Nalan Mingzhu talking to the elder brother: "Didn't the sixth elder brother always get close to the prince? Why did you come here?"

Yinzuo smirked, not knowing when he was classified as a princeling.

He didn't take it seriously, and after returning to the palace, he couldn't help thinking about Da Fujin's begging for facial fat, and he had an idea in his mind.

Who in this world is the easiest to earn money?It must be women and children.

What are women most willing to spend money on?That is naturally the face and clothes!

Clothes are nothing more than clothes, Yinzuo can't reach them for the time being, but isn't this skin care product just a way out right now?

The things used by concubines are supposed to be the best in the world, but Yinzuo's facial fat is still popular, which shows that the effect is really good.If you have the strength, if you want to gain the reputation of "loved by all mothers" at that time, you will not be able to sell it.

Cosmetics can also be developed in the future. Women are more interested in these than skin care products, and as long as they are good, they don't care how much money they have.

Yinzuo has been influenced by the ears and eyes of later generations, and he knows more types of cosmetics than he does now. If he does a few of them, he may not be sold!

Yin Zuo made up his mind, and started to develop products. He made a set for Concubine De before, but there was no one suitable for other skin types. Naturally, it would be impossible to open a shop, so more research and development was necessary.

Before he could successfully develop it, news came from Chengqian Palace——

The imperial concubine is critically ill!
