Chapter 166 The matter of the elixir
In Chunyu's mansion, the old lady was ill, which made the whole family extremely uneasy. Chunyuqiong didn't even go to the Imperial Army's barracks these days, and stayed at home all day to worry about her mother, and sent his servants to look for famous doctors , seeking all kinds of folk remedies, but the old lady's illness was getting worse every day, and there was no improvement at all, so Chunyu Qiong drank her sorrows with wine every day, feeling extremely sad.

"Liu Ma, what would mother like to eat today?" Chun Yuqiong sat at the stone table in the yard, and asked when Liu Ma from the kitchen came back from shopping.

"Master, the old lady's appetite has been particularly bad these days. She only eats a little bit every time. Sometimes she can't eat even though she wants to. It seems that she has to find a good remedy."

Liu Ma was the girl of old Mrs. Chunyu, and later married the housekeeper of Chunyu's house, but she watched Chunyu Qiong grow up, so she still called him Young Master, and she frowned and worried at this time.

"Hey, during this period of time, Uncle Zhong took a few of his servants around the capital and invited all the famous doctors to see him, even the royal doctor in the palace. None of the prescriptions I have given are helpful, and I really don’t know how my mother’s illness can be cured.”

Chunyu Qiong rubbed her somewhat messy hair, said with red eyes, for some time now, because of his mother's illness, it can be said that he couldn't eat well and sleep well, and his mental state was not as good as before.

"That's right, the master left early. The old lady is a woman, and it was hard to raise you, young master. This blessing has not been enjoyed for a few years, and now you have such a strange disease, which makes people feel distressed. But today you Uncle Zhong is out again, maybe there will be some news, we can't ignore the old lady."

"Liu Ma, don't worry, as long as there is a way to cure my mother, I will seek medical treatment for my mother even if my family goes bankrupt. I have worked hard for you and Uncle Zhong all the time. Without you, my Chunyu family would not be what it is today."

"Don't say that, the old lady treats me like a brother and sister, and I am already content. Your loyal uncle and I both remember the goodness of the master and the old lady. Of course, you have always been very good to us, young master."

At this moment, a gray-haired old man ran in with several servants in green clothes, panting and flushed, he came to Chunyu Qiong. He was Liu Ma's husband, Uncle Zhong, and the housekeeper of Chunyu's house.

"Uncle Zhong, why are you so tired from running, please drink some water."

When Chunyuqiong saw Uncle Zhong, she quickly got up and poured him a glass of water, and Mother Liu also put down the dishes in her hand, and helped her husband to sit down at the stone table. Uncle Zhong took the tea from Chunyuqiong's hand , drank it in one gulp, then panted slightly and said:
"Master, I have heard the news that the old lady's illness is hopeful to be cured."

"What? Uncle Zhong, is what you said true? Tell me what's going on?" Chunyu Qiong stood up as soon as she heard that, staring at Uncle Zhong with bright eyes and asked.

"Don't worry, young master. This matter is just a piece of news we heard. Whether it is true or not is uncertain, and even if it is true, there are still great difficulties in it. Let me tell you slowly. listen."

"Okay, okay, Uncle Zhong, don't worry, drink some water and talk slowly, no matter how difficult it is, as long as I can cure my mother's illness, I am willing to find a way."

"When we came back today, we found a tea stand on the street to take a break, and we heard people nearby talking about it, saying that there is a kind of elixir in the East Palace of His Royal Highness, which can cure all diseases. I don't believe it, but I heard from that person that his relatives were working in the East Palace. I saw His Highness the Crown Prince rescued a scholar with an elixir, and he cured the scholar's asthma in a few days. It was given by an old mountain god, and it can cure all kinds of strange diseases."

Uncle Zhong looked at the people around him, and slowly narrated what he had encountered today, and Liu Ma's eyes lit up beside him: "Old man, what you said is true, if it is true, maybe the old man There is hope that people’s diseases can be cured.”

"I don't know whether it's true or that person is bragging, but I think this at least represents a message. We only need to go to the East Palace to verify, and maybe we can find the elixir to cure the old lady, so I hurried Come back and tell everyone. Young master, now you see what we should do? Do you want to go to the East Palace to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"Of course I have to ask. I will personally ask about this matter. I believe His Royal Highness is a generous and kind person." Chunyu Qiong clenched his fists and said.

"Master, even if there is such an elixir in the East Palace, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary thing. I'm afraid His Royal Highness won't be willing to take it out, so let's prepare some more property to exchange." Liu Ma said worriedly beside her.

"Mama Liu is right. For such a precious elixir, we must prepare more valuables to exchange. But as long as there is such an elixir in the East Palace, even if I kneel down to beg His Highness the Crown Prince, I will ask for it for my mother. "

Immediately, Chunyu Qiong came to the East Palace with generous gifts, and asked someone to inform him to see His Highness the Crown Prince, but only Xun Yu received him: "It turned out to be General Chunyu from the imperial army. Today, His Highness the Crown Prince went to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit, and he may not be able to return until evening. Do you know of anything I can do for you?"

"My lord Xun, my old mother is seriously ill in bed, and she has been searching for medicine everywhere but nothing works. Recently, I heard that there is an elixir in the Eastern Palace that can cure all diseases. I wonder if it is true?"

"Oh, it turns out that General Chunyu came here to ask for medicine. It is indeed true. The elixir was given by His Highness the Crown Prince by an old mountain god. The disciple Cai University accepted, the other one was given to one of my friends, Xi Zhicai, and now he is a guest of the prince. His Royal Highness, this elixir really cures all diseases. Guo Fengxiao and Xi Zhicai have their own After taking one, they completely cured their chronic diseases for many years, making them as healthy as normal people now. Such a precious panacea is really rare in the world, but the old god only gave His Royal Highness three, But now there is only one left. General Chunyu came at the right time, maybe His Royal Highness will give you the elixir."

"Mr. Xun, Chun knows that His Royal Highness's elixir is hard-won and very precious, so he didn't ask His Highness for it for nothing. Our family is willing to pay for the medicine. No matter how much His Royal Highness wants, we will go bankrupt." If you are willing to pay, Mr. Xun must say a few kind words in front of His Royal Highness, Chun will be very grateful."
