Chapter 436 Shooting yourself in the foot
Hearing this, Sima Han only said: "If a woman has difficulty in seeking a child, she must be physically weak, with upper and lower stagnation, and poor pulse. After practicing medicine for many years, the common people do have a prescription that can help with pregnancy, but..."
Princess Shu's eyes lit up when she heard there was hope.
"Mr. Miracle Doctor, you might as well tell me directly. If there is any problem, I will try my best to solve it."
Sima Han sighed: "Locusts have been raging recently, eating crops and medicinal fields everywhere. There is a rare medicinal material in the prescription called 'Pu Liangzi'. The appearance is as yellow
as jade, and only when winter is approaching, a tender white flower will bloom. This flower can be used as medicine. Usually three hundred flowers can be made into two taels of Pu Liangzi. In winter, the common people have no storage. I heard that the Pu Liangzi grown in the medicinal fields has been almost ravaged by locusts. If the princess really wants to try it, the common people will write down the recipe. As for this medicine... I am sorry that the common people can't help. ."
Princess Shu looked troubled.
This medicine is so rare and precious that even the miracle doctor has no way to cure it. Can she find it?
Or should we wait for another winter?
But she couldn't wait any longer. After this year, she would be forty-five.
Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes at the side, her heart like a mirror.
Grandpa, the miracle doctor, must not want to care about this matter.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even feel his pulse and would just say he couldn't control it.
Shen Ningning heard her brother Xie Mingxu say before that the genius doctor Sima Han liked the life of Xianyun Yehe and was unwilling to become the helper of any noble.
The reason why he was able to come to stay in Xie's Mansion and be its doctor was because his mother Shen Siyi had been kind to him many years ago.
Therefore, Sima Han did not want to get involved in Princess Shu's request for a son, so he politely refused.
Shen Ningning saw Princess Shu's sad face and heard her say: "Am I really not able to give birth to a son and a half for the prince in my life?"
The little girl hesitated.
Mo Lingwei cared about his uncle and aunt very much, but in Shen Ningning's eyes, Princess Shu was a poor person who was kept in the dark by the King of Shu.
Princess Shu was so distraught that the miracle doctor and Shen Ningning didn't stay long and wanted to get up and leave.
However, Shen Ningning's little feet left with a bit of hesitation. She frequently looked back at Princess Shu, and saw her pressing her eyebrows and lowering her head on the stone table, looking particularly sad.
The little girl couldn't bear it.
Sima Han saw it and whispered: "Little girl Ning Ning, you'd better not meddle in this business. Princess Shu's infertility is probably related to the people in the palace. It's really complicated to get involved. Why do you have to wade into this muddy water? ?"
Shen Ningning thought about it and decided to stay.
"Grandpa, the miracle doctor, please go back first. The Princess of Shu is a relative that my brother cares about. I have to help her."
Pu Liangzi's medicinal materials are available in her fairyland, but they don't seem to be in much quantity, but they are enough for the Princess of Shu. .
Sima Han sighed and shook his head, leaving helplessly.
Princess Shu was covering her eyebrows with her hands, shedding tears silently.
At this moment, she saw a pair of pink butterfly-embroidered shoes stopping in front of her. She raised a pair of hazy tearful eyes and saw Shen Ningning leaving and returning.
"Ning Ning, why didn't you go back?" Princess Shu quickly turned aside to wipe away her tears.
Shen Ningning's voice was sweet, and she stood in the spring breeze, her tender green clothes like the first blooming buds.
"Aunt Princess, don't be sad. I remembered that I may have saved some Pu Liangzi medicinal materials, but the quantity is not large, so I have to go back and look for it. If it is really there, I will have someone bring it to you. "
She can't take out a lot at once, and she can't let Princess Shu think it's easy for her to take it.
When Princess Shu heard this, she looked overjoyed and burst into laughter. She held Shen Ningning with both hands and praised her in every possible way.
"Ning Ning is really a little lucky star. With your words, my aunt is relieved."
After that, Princess Shu invited Shen Ningning to stay and accompany the little girl to visit the garden and enjoy the scenery.
Listening to Shen Ningning's explanation, Princess Shu's mood improved a lot. When Mo Zhirou returned home and accidentally saw the scene of them having fun, she felt very aggrieved.
She had just returned from the palace, although she did not openly tell the emperor that she wanted to be made a princess.
But the emperor also saw her thoughts and sent her away with a few words.
Mo Zhirou was about to go back to the palace to cry to Princess Shu, because Princess Shu had the softest heart and was easy to talk to. Unexpectedly, she saw that Princess Shu and Shen Ningning were so harmonious and harmonious.
She squeezed the handkerchief tightly, turned around and left gloomily.
Half a month later.
Sure enough, Shen Ningning came with a pack of Pu Liangzi, which was enough to feed Princess Shu for a month!
Not only that, fearing that Princess Shu would see the clues, Shen Ningning ground Pu Liangzi into powder before she came.
When he met the Princess of Shu later, she said that it was the Pu Liangzi powder that had been dried in advance.
The housekeeper led Shen Ningning to the back garden. When passing the jade belt arch bridge in the garden, Mo Zhirou suddenly stepped onto the bridge from the opposite side.
She walked in a hurry and shouted: "Hurry up, or it will be too late."
Seeing that she was about to bump into her, Shen Ningning quickly turned aside to avoid it. Unexpectedly, Mo Zhirou seemed to be walking with her head lowered, but in fact when she passed by the little girl , raised his hand and pushed.
The bundle containing Pu Liangzi in Shen Ningning's hand suddenly fell into the water under the bridge!
"No!" The housekeeper was shocked. He naturally knew what Shen Ningning was holding and hurriedly jumped into the water to retrieve the baggage.
However, when it was fished out, the baggage spread out and the powder inside had long since disappeared!
"It's over. This is the medicine that the princess has been waiting for!" The housekeeper knelt on the ground with a bleak look on his face.
Shen Ningning frowned from beginning to end, seeing these precious Pu Liangzi disappear into nothing.
She pursed her pink lips and asked Mo Zhirou directly.
"Why did you push me just now?"
Mo Zhirou looked innocent: "Princess Funing, you misunderstood, how dare I push you? The Dimu Temple in the city is providing three hundred incense today to pray for my mother. It was gone when I got there late, so I was in a hurry and didn't see you. "
"Anyway, it was unintentional. The princess said that I pushed you, which is really an injustice."
Shen Ningning looked like she was beaten to death. The look of disapproval showed a flash of pride in Mo Zhirou's eyes.
The little girl's heart was cold and her eyes were like ice.
Mo Zhirou has no idea how precious this Pu Liangzi is to the princess, right?
At this moment, Princess Shu's shocked voice came from a distance: "What's going on?!"
She held up her dress and hurried over with a panicked look on her face, followed by King Shu and his servants.
When they arrived on the bridge, Princess Shu took a deep breath when she saw the bundle with only a ball of white foam in the steward's hand.
Mo Zhirou spoke first, her voice full of apologies.
"Mom, it was Zhirou who accidentally collided with the princess in order to go to Di Mu Temple to pray for you to have a child, so this packet of powdered medicine fell into the water..." she said aggrievedly. Almost cried.
The King of Shu glanced at the white foam in the bag and frowned immediately.
"Madam, what kind of medicine are you going to take? I've told you before that most of the folk prescriptions in the streets are lies. Not only can they not cure the disease, they will also affect your body!"
He Mo Zhirou glanced at Shen Ningning calmly, seeming to blame: "Fortunately, Zhirou was knocked off by you this time, otherwise you would have eaten something unknown. Wouldn't this make your husband anxious?"
Mo Zhirou He could hardly hold back the proud corners of his lips.
What she did was indeed right. Shen Ningning could call everyone to eat locusts. What good thing could he give to Princess Shu?
Shen Ningning did not give any explanation, but just said to Princess Shu: "Aunt Princess, this is all my Pu Liangzi. If I want to have any more, I have to wait until next winter." (End of this chapter)
