Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 148 Donating Medicine
"Master Li, you and I should hurry up and think of a solution. If we can't come up with a suitable solution, we will be in trouble." Liang Chu anxiously told Li Dongyang about the current situation.

Li Dongyang looked lazily sleepy, he stayed up late last night thinking about it all night, and fell asleep just after dawn, but was woken up early in the morning by Liang Chu.

"Lord Liang, I've been thinking about it all night and I haven't come up with a solution! This iron-clad warship has been built, but where can I find that steam engine His Majesty mentioned?"

"Yeah, yeah, the point is that you and I have never seen that thing, and don't take the initiative to spend money to buy it? This time, His Majesty seems to be very anxious to make a steam engine."

"I heard that Qi Jingtong from the Admiralty of the Navy is at home recently. Let's go over and ask him. Maybe he knows about that thing."

The two agreed to go to Qi Jingtong's mansion together.

Chuxiu Palace West Garden.

Liu Ruyue stayed alone in the room. Although she had no background in the palace, their family was a big family outside. Although the Ming Dynasty had strict regulations that beautiful women entering the palace were not allowed to keep in touch with the outside world, the Liu family did not. There are means to allow Liu Ruyue to maintain long-term contact with people outside.

This time she learned the lesson from the last time she was caught by the Queen Mother, and was careful in everything, not even leaving any clues.

Their Liu family is in the jewelry business outside, and they have several large shops in the capital, and their business extends all over the world.

From time to time, rare treasures were transported into the palace, and many people knew people from the Liu family.

The news of Liu Ruyue being kicked into the harem spread to the outside world at some point, and many people outside who didn't know the truth spread the news like a miraculous one.

In Liu Ruyue's shop in Beijing, a man dressed as a lama, who called himself a Panchen Lama, became a guest of their inn.

This shop was also run by Liu Ruyue's father. When he heard that his girl had been relegated to the cold palace, he gritted his teeth with hatred at first, but later he had no choice but to accept his fate.

But one day, a lama monk came into his shop and told him that he could help the Liu family through this crisis.

As a businessman, Liu Zong naturally believed in the theory of ghosts and gods very much. He was very excited when he heard that the lama and monk said that he could ward off disasters for his family.

But the asking price of this monk lama is also very high, earning more than half a year's income of their family, and only then began to tell him a way.

The Liu family is also a big local family, they don't care about such a small amount of money, but they gladly accept the method offered by this monk.

"Now, as long as people send this object to the palace, write a letter to tell the lady how to use it, and find a way to make the emperor swallow this object, it will definitely save the lady's life."

"However, Master, Your Majesty is the King of all gold. Everything we have worked so hard to send in has to go through a series of tests before His Majesty can take it. It's just that this test is not easy."

"Master, don't worry, my daughter is excited. We will find a way to deliver this thing to her, and this will be a success. You don't need to worry about the rest."

The lama was also a straightforward person, and he was not in a hurry to leave after taking the money, and wanted to take root of his "invention" here in the capital.

Through operating various relationships, the Liu family finally handed over the items given to them by the lama to Liu Ruyue.

But it was half a month later, Liu Ruyue was released by Zhu Houzhao long ago, and arranged in Shufangzhai.

Liu Ruyue was very anxious when she said the thing sent from outside the palace, she didn't even know what this thing was for?How should I think of a way to let His Majesty take it?

However, soon a female official sent a letter. This was the only way for all the women sent to the palace to contact the outside world, and it was also recognized by the Ming Empire.

However, after some letters entered the palace, they had to be reviewed by the Ministry of Household Affairs. If they were concealed or contained things that should not have entered the palace, they would be sentenced to death.

Liu Ruyue opened the letter anxiously, her heart was beating wildly, if this thing was seen by the Queen Mother's people again, no one would be able to save her this time.

Taking advantage of no one around, Liu Ruyue carefully opened the letter and read it carefully.

It turned out that the letter didn't specifically say what it was, but just vaguely told her that when Zhu Houzhao flipped through her brand, let him eat this thing, and that's enough.

Liu Ruyue's face instantly turned red to her ears. Although she was a pure girl and her thoughts were not so unclean, she had already understood the relationship between men and women after being indoctrinated by Ouyang Jing.

She had never seen such a thing before, and this was the first time she had seen her father write letters for her and teach her methods, which made her a little unconfident.

She held a small pill and looked at it for a long time. What can such a small pill do to people?

She counted carefully, and there were only ten pills, and she didn't know how the pills were taken. ?
Because the letter has to be reviewed, there is no specific description of the name of the pill and how to take it.

Liu Ruyue held ten pills in fear, really wanted to swallow them in one gulp, and wanted to try them for Zhu Houzhao to see if there were any side effects.

However, from her father's letter to her, she seemed to see that the pill could only be taken by men, so she dismissed the idea.

"Now find a way to let His Majesty take this pill. If it is true as father said, maybe it can really save me." Liu Ruyue thought to herself.

"By the way, the last time I went to the Palace of Compassion, didn't I see that His Majesty likes donkey meat the most? I don't know which sister can cook donkey meat in braised sauce. If I also learn it, you can definitely let His Majesty come here."

After thinking of many ways, Liu Ruyue gave up one by one, because she had learned from the past and wanted to think of a foolproof method this time.

She beat her stomach with her hands in hatred, but there was no reaction at all. Maybe it was just that night, she had a glimmer of fantasy. If she could really give birth to a dragon species for the royal family, then her life's fate would be changed for the rest of her life.

Inside Shufangzhai, Liu Ruyue anxiously licked her lips.

Countless thoughts appeared in her mind, but she just couldn't make up her mind.

It's not that she didn't think of a good idea. If it fails, maybe this pill is poison at all, then wouldn't their entire Liu family be ruined?

Thinking of this, she decided to try the pill herself to see if the method her father told her would work.

When half a bowl of boiling water arrived, Liu Ruyue closed her eyes, took a pill, and then quietly waited for the pill to take effect.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what a happy event!"

At this time, a palace maid hurriedly pushed open Liu Ruyue's door and rushed in with a joyful expression.

"What's the matter? In a panic, no matter what happens in the future, you must be prudent."

The servant girl glanced at Liu Ruyue, her face became even more happy.Under normal circumstances, Liu Ruyou is more polite to her court ladies, because she has lived in a wealthy family since she was a child, and her father has long taught her to treat the servants kindly.

"Tell me, what happy event made you so happy?" Liu Ruyue was actually very eager to know what the happy event was?
"A letter has just been sent from the Yangxin Palace. Your Majesty will favor you again tonight. Your Majesty, please make preparations as soon as possible!"

"What? Tonight?"

Liu Ruyue's heart beat even harder.
