As soon as they arrived at the door, Sun Miaoqing and his party heard the cry of Hong Zhou, the fifth elder brother in the room.
Just as Linglan was about to open the door, Qiangwei took the lead and opened the door from the inside. Seeing Sun Miaoqing at the door, she quickly said,
"I'm here to see you. The fifth elder brother is clamoring for Prince Zhuang Fujin. The nuns can't coax him. I'm about to go over and report to you."
Sun Miaoqing said, "Prince Zhuang Fujin has left the palace. It is not convenient to call him back now. I will go and take a look first."
Qiangwei stepped aside and let Sun Miaoqing go in. The fifth elder brother inside was crying so hard that his face was red, and Liuli ordered.
"Look for someone with quick legs and feet. Go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Doctor Lu to come over."
"Slave, I obey."
When the nuns saw Sun Miaoqing coming in, they hugged Hong Zhou, the fifth elder brother, and prepared to salute.
Sun Miaoqing said, "It's inconvenient for Mammy to hold Fifth Brother, so please don't do it."
Hong Zhou kept crying and holding a small car made of wood in his hand.
After crying a few times, he said "I want my aunt". Sun Miaoqing picked up the small windmill on the side and said, "Hong Zhou, be good. If Hong Zhou doesn't cry, what do you think this is?"
Hong Zhou didn't even look at the little windmill that Sun Miaoqing held in his hand to comfort him, but instead cried louder.
"I want my aunt, wow wow wow..."
"I want my aunt..."
Sun Miaoqing said, "The fifth elder brother is crying so hard. The four nuns have taken care of him for so long. There really is nothing they can do."
The four nuns looked ashamed, you looked at me, I looked at you. The leader, Grandma Li, said,
"Reporting to Concubine Cheng, my fifth brother usually cries so much that he has to be comforted by Fujin himself."
"The slaves are incompetent and there is really no other way."
Sun Miaoqing listened to the cry that sounded like a demonic sound piercing her ears, and the scream that came out after a while. For the first time, she longed for the big fat orange to come over quickly.
"Let me do it."
He stretched out his hand and took Hong Zhou over. As soon as he reached Sun Miaoqing's arms, Hong Zhou started to struggle and she almost lost her grip.
"I don't want you, I want my aunt!"
"Wow wow wow, wow wow wow wow..."
Seeing Hong Zhou like this, Grandma Li said distressedly, "Mother, why don't you come as a slave?"
Sun Miaoqing had no choice but to agree, "Linglan, go and see why the emperor hasn't come over yet. When the emperor comes later, we will bring him here directly."
"My slave understands."
Not long after Suzuran went out, she brought Big Fat Orange over.
"I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."
"Everyone, get up."
Sun Miaoqing said anxiously, "Your Majesty, you are finally here. The fifth elder brother has been crying for a long time and his voice has become hoarse."
"I and my concubines, they can't coax me no matter how much I do."
Big Fat Orange had a sullen face, looking at his little son who was crying for his aunt, his brows furrowed so hard he could kill a fly.
"Let me try."
"yes."
Aunt Li stepped forward and put Hong Zhou into Big Fat Orange's arms. Perhaps because of Big Fat Orange's arrogant and intimidating attitude, Hong Zhou didn't struggle much.
But it would be impossible for him to just stop.
Big Fat Orange held his little son in one hand and held a rattle in the other, shaking it non-stop, but it had no effect at all.
Seeing this, Sun Miaoqing showed an unbearable look on his face, and said to Big Fat Jue, "Your Majesty, if the fifth elder brother continues to cry like this, I'm afraid he will hurt himself."
"Why don't we invite Prince Zhuang Fujin back and coax Hong Zhou back first?"
Big Fat Orange said, "A woman's opinion."
"Now that the key to the palace has been issued, it would be inconvenient to invite Fujin to come back."
"Besides, Prince Zhuang Fujin cannot stay in the palace forever. Hong Zhou's problem must be corrected."
Sun Miaoqing nodded perfunctorily, "Yes, as long as the emperor is not distressed, I, this woman, have nothing to say."
Big Fat Orange glanced at Sun Miaoqing, was too lazy to pay attention to her, and continued to coax the little son in his arms.
People in Chuxiu Palace were used to seeing Sun Miaoqing contradicting the emperor, so they didn't think it was a big deal. The nuns and maids serving Hong Zhou were all surprised when they saw this scene.
I have long heard that the sincere concubine is favored, and it is true that there is no adulteration at all. Dare to talk back to the emperor, but the emperor is not angry at all.
When Liuli came in with the panting Zhang Mi, Hong Zhou had been crying for a few days and was lying on Big Fat Orange's shoulder, sobbing non-stop.
"Wei Chen has seen the emperor..."
Sun Miaoqing said anxiously, "Mr. Zhang, please don't see me again. Look at Brother Wu. He has been crying for so long and now he has no sound."
Zhang Mi raised his head and glanced at Big Fat Orange carefully. Seeing that he had no objection, he stood up and checked on the fifth elder brother.
After the fifth elder brother carefully inspected it, Zhang Mi said,
"Reporting to your Majesty and Empress, the fifth elder brother is weak. He cried for too long and lost his strength, so he fell asleep."
"In addition, the fifth brother's throat and lungs were inevitably damaged. But fortunately, it is not serious. Wait for Weichen to prescribe a medicine, and take it with loquat ointment mixed with water on weekdays. After a few days, you can give instructions. "
Big Fat Orange said, "The fifth elder brother often cries. Is there any good way to help the fifth elder brother take good care of him?"
Zhang Mi said, "Weichen can prescribe a soothing soup. Brother Wu may feel better after drinking it."
Sun Miaoqing asked, "My fifth brother is still young, will using this harm my health?"
Zhang Mi replied, "Don't worry, Madam, although the fifth elder brother is fragile, he is already three years old. As long as he takes a small amount and takes the medicine continuously for no more than ten days, it will not damage my golden body."
Big Fat Orange said, "In this case, let's prescribe it."
"I obey the order."
Zhang Mi quickly wrote two prescriptions and handed them to Su Peisheng and handed them to Big Fat Orange.
"The first one is for the fifth elder brother to calm his lungs. The second one is for the soothing soup prepared for the fifth elder brother. Please consult the emperor and empress."
Neither Da Pangju nor Sun Miaoqing knew how to see a doctor. They were just amateurs watching the fun and couldn't see anything.
It's just that the prescription for calming the nerves contained a medicine called Baishuang. Sun Miaoqing thought it looked very familiar, but couldn't remember it for a moment.
"Mr. Zhang, what kind of medicinal material is this white frost? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Zhang Mi said, "Report to the Queen, this medicine is also called lead frost. Mix lead with one-fifteenth of mercury to make a tablet. Put it in a vinegar jar and seal it. After a long time, it will become frost."
"Compendium of Materia Medica says that lead frost smells sweet, sour, cold, and non-toxic. It is a good medicine for treating convulsions, fever, thirst, and sore throat in children." (Information found online)
"In the early years of the late emperor, the imperial hospital discovered that this medicine was used to calm the nerves and had miraculous effects, so it was often used in the preparation of calming soup."
Sun Miaoqing said coldly, "The dosage must be much higher than that for other diseases, right?"
Zhang Mi replied, "That's true. I didn't expect that Concubine Cheng is also proficient in medical skills."
[I don’t know medical skills, but I know common sense. What kind of lead cream has a miraculous effect on calming the nerves, making you feel sleepy after drinking it? Lead poisoning certainly has no energy! 】
[Big Fat Orange’s brothers and sisters who died young may have had something to do with the fact that their parents gave birth too early and their children were underdeveloped, but it may not have nothing to do with the abuse of lead cream. 】
[In the next few hundred years, such heavy metal poisoning will not be easy to detect. Not to mention that now, poison screening is impossible. 】
[It is said that Big Fat Orange was accused by Emperor Kangxi of being moody and angry, but later he learned the hard way and suppressed himself to the point where he is now, unable to show his mood or anger. 】
[Now it seems that I may have used too much lead cream and ended up eating it like this! 】
