When talking about pharmacological knowledge, Doctor Qin was very eloquent. He even took out a medicinal book written by himself and showed it to Yang Xianrong. He had a separate room in the Imperial Physician's Garden, which was filled with books on bamboo slips and a whole wall of medicine cabinets. These medicinal materials were stored in categories. The whole room was filled with the smell of medicinal herbs.
Yang Xianrong didn't like the smell of herbs, so she frowned slightly. Boss Mo opened the window in the room a small crack and said softly: "The Queen, please don't take off your coat, for fear of charcoal fire hitting the room." Because of the medicinal properties, Imperial Physician Qin never lit a fire to keep warm, and the room was very cold."
"Yes, the Queen can drink some hot tea." Doctor Qin took out a small bag from a medicine box, unfolded it and showed it to Yang Xianrong, "There are red dates, astragalus and ginger here. You can boil some, which is beneficial. It has the effects of replenishing qi and blood, strengthening the spleen and warming the stomach, relieving pain, nourishing and activating blood. It is best for women to drink it. If the queen likes sweets, she can also add some sugar."
"No need to add sugar." Yang Xianrong didn't like sweets. He watched Qin Imperial Physician pour all these things into the small pottery pot, and then lit a small charcoal stove on the table. The rising smoke It drifted out along the window crack. There was no trace of smoke in the room, and it was very comfortable.
"It is true that you should not eat too much sweets, as it can easily cause many diseases." Imperial Physician Qin put aside several medical books spread out on the table, "Tpress Concubine He suffered a stroke the day before yesterday, and her mouth and nose were crooked. Although she was rescued, But the situation looks quite dangerous. She usually likes sweets, and even eating porridge and meals has to add some sugar, which is really not good. The diet should still be light, and the queen should not eat too much roast mutton. , it is easy to get angry and produce phlegm, and the complexion will be much worse."
Listening to Doctor Qin's nagging, Yang Xianrong nodded, "I have indeed gained weight recently. Is there any food for digestion?"
"Well..." Imperial Physician Qin glanced at Yang Xianrong and shook his head, "The Empress does not need to lose weight. A plump figure makes it easier to conceive..."
He said this so suddenly that Yang Xianrong was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was saying, and he couldn't help but cough twice.
Qin Taiyi smiled and said, "Royal heirs are very important. The emperor has fewer heirs. Of course, with the abolition of the queen's exclusive power in the harem, other concubines will not have the chance to conceive dragon seeds. Now if the empress works harder, she can give birth to a boy and a half. A woman can also share the emperor's worries."
Seeing the man's father-like and heartbroken expression, Yang Xianrong just smiled and did not answer these words.
Fortunately, Lu Zhu was already standing at the door at this time and asked softly: "Queen, the maid has brought your purse over."
"Bring it in." Yang Xianrong glanced at Boss Mo, who immediately opened the door and let Lu Zhu come in.
This purse was newly embroidered by Lan Xiang. It is very exquisite. It has a beautiful flying phoenix embroidered with gold thread. It is intended to hold some spices that are portable. However, Yang Xianrong didn't think about what to put there. Previously, I asked Liu Yao to bring in the incense box from her parents' home, but she felt that the smell was not good. In short, she disliked the smell.
"Physician Qin, please give me more details. What kind of spices should I put in it?"
"Scent of osmanthus?" Imperial Physician Qin was unsure of the meaning of the sheep's presentation, so he just responded.
"Those smells are too strong. It's better to make some medicinal incense to keep with you in this winter." Yang Xianrong looked around, "I heard that Imperial Physician Qin here is good at medicinal incense, so I wanted to come and get some."
"Oh, what the Queen said, I hope the Queen likes these. I didn't dare to give them to you before, because I was afraid that you were young... Well, I don't like the taste. I have made a lot of medicinal incense here. , come and have a look, smell it, if you like it, take it away, take it as you like." Doctor Qin smiled quite happily. He often made medicinal incense in his spare time, but no one liked it, saying that he disliked it. Medicinal energy. Unexpectedly, Yang Xianrong liked it very much and even took some in his purse to put some back. Naturally, he was very happy.
"Something lighter, smelling very fragrant, but not too overpowering..." Yang Xianrong watched as Qin Taiyi hurriedly took out a lot of medicinal pills from the large medicine cabinet, and they all looked dark. Yes, they all look the same.
"How about this?" Imperial Physician Qin picked out a small box, which contained three small black balls. "This is Wenxiang Pills, which are made from a mixture of Scrophulariaceae, lychee bark, pine nuts, sandalwood, Cyperus rotundus, and cloves. The smell is quiet, so it’s most suitable to keep by your side when reading and writing.”
Yang Xianrong smelled it and shook his head, "The sandalwood smell gives me a headache. The emperor's room is full of sandalwood, and my hair smells like this. It's not good."
Doctor Qin grinned and said: "The emperor needs to meditate, so he chose this one."
"Are there any more elegant ones?" Yang Xianrong saw these fragrant pills and wanted to take one, but he held back and picked them up.
"Or this one? Styrax pills." Doctor Qin picked up a very simple small wooden box, which contained only one large and black fragrant pill. "This is made of styrax, benzoin, borneol, buffalo horn, musk, Made from agarwood, clove, cyperus, costus, frankincense, pipe pepper, atractylodes, myrobalan meat and cinnabar, it has the effects of aromatic opening, promoting qi and relieving pain."
"So complicated?" Yang Xianrong curled his lips, "How much work does this take?"
"It's not bad, but I can't make a few pills in a year. Only the King of Chengdu likes this taste and has kept it with him since he was a child." Doctor Qin picked out all the Suhexiang pills, and there were only three pills in total. "In the Medicinal Classics, this fragrant storax also has the effect of opening up the mind with fragrance, removing filth and turning turbidity, and restoring consciousness. The King of Chengdu read a lot when he was a child, and he felt that this fragrant pill could keep people awake."
"Okay." Yang Xianrong thought about Sima Ying when he was a boy. He might be considered a studious and motivated prince. "Then I'll take one too."
Lu Zhu quickly opened her purse, and Doctor Qin smiled and put the Suhexiang Pills in, "It's best to keep it with you all the time."
"Okay." Yang Xianrong nodded.
"Actually, there is no need to throw away this fragrant pill after being used for a year. It is still effective and can be a life-saving medicine." Qin Taiyi began to explain again, "There is such a record in the ancient medicinal scriptures. Use this Xiangwan is suitable for symptoms such as phlegm, coma, stroke, hemiplegia, limb weakness, heat stroke, stomach and gas pain, etc. It can save lives when necessary."
"Oh?" Yang Xianrong squeezed the pill again, "So carrying it with you is also a preventive effect, right?"
"The Queen is still young, so she doesn't need it."
"Nip it in the bud." Yang Xianrong tied the purse around his waist, covered it with a cotton coat and hid it inside, "You can do more when you have time. I'll ask Lu Zhu to send some money later."
"Oh, thank you so much, Queen." Doctor Qin fell to his knees with a plop, and even kowtowed.
"Hey, it's just a fragrant pill, why do you need to give such a big gift?" Yang Xianrong turned slightly sideways. She didn't want to be slapped by the gray-haired imperial doctor because of a pill.
