The beauty of the Hou family and the king's plan

Shen Baozhao didn't notice Xiao Li's uncomfortable expression.

Instead, he told Princess Yu: "Grandmother's chest pain is probably caused by emotional disorder and worry damaging the spleen.

Over the years, dampness accumulates and turns into phlegm, which can block blood flow and heart meridians, leading to chest pain.

Madam Xiao praised, "Zhao Zhao is right. Since your mother passed away, your grandmother has eaten less and eaten less. She often misses your mother.

The imperial physician had told her to relax before, and had tried many different prescriptions, but to no avail. "

"Do you have the previous prescription?" Shen Baozhao asked.

"Never."

Shen Baozhao thought about it and it made sense. Princess Yu came here to burn incense, so why would she carry a prescription with her?

"I have it in my meditation room." Abbot Xuchen, who had been unable to speak, finally had the chance to speak.

Xu Chen’s medical skills are not low either, and he has been following up on the pulse case of Princess Yu.

The Prince Yu’s Mansion would send him a copy of every prescription written by the imperial physician.

He hurriedly asked the little monk to get the prescription.

Shen Baozhao saw that Princess Yu's illness today had exhausted her energy, and with the help of his acupuncture, she recovered.

But she was also very tired and was just holding on.

Madam Xiao also noticed it and ordered someone to put another layer of cushion on the carriage of Princess Yu.

The plan was to have the princess ride in a sedan chair down the mountain first, then lie down in the carriage while it drove slowly.

Shen Baozhao took out a pill from the sachet and handed it to Princess Yu’s personal attendant, Nanny Zhao.

"This is the Heart Protecting Pill. Madam, please dissolve it in warm water and give it to Grandmother."

Aunt Zhao quickly took it and looked at Shen Baozhao lovingly: "Don't worry, cousin."

Princess Yu held Shen Baozhao's hand tightly and was unwilling to let go until Madam Xiao said she would send an invitation to Shen Baozhao when she returned. Only then did she agree to get on the carriage.

Abbot Xuchen invited Shen Baozhao to the meditation room, and the two sat opposite each other.

On the table in the middle was the prescription written by the imperial physician.

Shen Baozhao picked up the prescriptions and read them one by one, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

At first, some of the prescriptions used medicines to treat chest pain, but they were not quite suitable for the symptoms.

The latter ones are all decoctions that are neither good nor bad for calming the mind and replenishing qi and blood.

Shen Baozhao was furious and slammed the table: "Quack."

Xu Chen raised his eyes and asked, "Why do you say that, young friend?"

Shen Baozhao stared at Xuchen with a half-smile: "Master Abbot is also a Zen doctor. He can understand the prescriptions written by the Imperial Hospital in the past two years. Are you trying to fool people?"

Xu Chen put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, monks do not tell lies. I know this myself."

"Then why do you let them do this?" Shen Baozhao was puzzled.

Xu Chen explained, "It's really because I'm not very skilled. I've studied the princess's illness for many years. I've tried all the methods I could, but they're all ineffective.

I think the doctors in the Imperial Hospital are all like this. And Princess Yu is of noble status, so they dare not use strong medicines, and only prescribe some medicines for her recovery. "

Xu Chen also lowered his head in shame.

"I noticed that you only used acupuncture once today, and the princess' pulse condition has improved. I really want to ask you, who is your master?"

Shen Baozhao saw Xuchen looking at him with a curious expression and thought that this old monk was able to humble himself.

Otherwise, even a high monk like Xuchen would have to be dignified.

Although he was eager to know, Shen Baozhao was unable to tell him the truth.

He could only lie and say, "My master is a hermit master, like a dragon that can't be seen from head to tail.

He also doesn’t want to be entangled in worldly affairs, so I’m sorry I can’t tell you.”

She wasn't lying, Luo Bucheng was indeed like that.

Xu Chen did not embarrass Shen Baozhao, but felt deeply regretful and passed over the matter without mentioning it.

He focused on Shen Baozhao and started discussing medicine.

Time passed by without him noticing, and it was not until the sun was setting that Shen Baozhao shook off the world and left the meditation room.

Although his medical skills were not as good as Baozhao's, many people came to Fahua Temple for medical treatment. Although Xuchen only saved people with predestined relationships, he never charged for consultations when he met poor families.

Shen Baozhao was also willing to teach everything he had learned.

When she and Qingkong reached the gate of Fahua Temple, she saw a door god with his back to her.

Shen Baozhao sighed, since he couldn't avoid it, he would just have to face it.

He walked forward and stood three feet away from Xiao Li, and said, "Why don't you go down the mountain with grandma?"

"Of course I'm waiting for my cousin." Xiao Li turned around and looked at Shen Baozhao.

Shen Baozhao saw that he was so straightforward and did not hide anything. He knew that he could not escape today.

Although it was not yet late, the number of people was gradually decreasing, but there were still some people coming and going.

Xiao Li also noticed the occasional gazes from people around him.

"Cousin, can you please spare a moment to talk to me?" After saying this, he went to the Zen temple at the back without caring whether Shen Baozhao agreed or not.

Shen Baozhao had no choice but to follow.

Xiao Li was tall and walked fast, and he walked quite a distance before he realized that Shen Baozhao was struggling to keep up, so he gradually slowed down his pace.

He chose a secluded place and planted peach trees there.

The peach blossoms at the foot of the mountain have already withered at this time of year, but the ones at the Fahua Temple are blooming as brightly as the morning glow.

Xiao Li entered the courtyard and stopped, asking his followers to guard the entrance of the Zen temple.

Qingkong followed Baozhao, fearing that this cousin would attack his young lady.

"Red string solves the case, let's say my cousin is very smart. But do you dare to say that you met my grandmother today by chance? And it wasn't you who deliberately contacted her?"

Xiao Li was still worried that Shen Baozhao's intentions were not pure.

Shen Baozhao looked at him standing under a peach tree, his fair face set off by the pink petals. When he was silent, he looked like a stranger, as beautiful as jade.

The beautiful scene was broken as soon as the cold words were spoken.

Why was he so sure that today was not an accidental encounter? And his grandmother also said that Xiao Li had no plans to come to Fahua Temple today.

But he still came, and targeted me as soon as he arrived.

Could it be? A guess arose in Shen Baozhao's mind.

"You followed me!" Shen Baozhao said in an unhappy tone.

Xiao Li admitted it readily, "Cousin, you're overthinking. I'm not free enough to follow you.

I just asked someone to guard the gate of Ning'an Marquis's Mansion."

"You don't need to quibble. Since you dare to come to Fahua Temple to block my grandmother, then speak frankly and tell me your purpose."

Shen Baozhao walked up to Xiao Li, with a half-smile on his face, "Cousin, what do you think my purpose is?"

When Xiao Li heard that Shen Baozhao still refused to tell the truth, his expression turned even darker.

His tone became even more blunt: “I don’t care why you’re going to such great lengths.

I am only warning you, if you have any bad intentions towards the people in Prince Yu's Mansion, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless."

Shen Baozhao glared at Xiao Li from a place where he couldn't see, and then pinched himself hard.

Her voice was soft and her eyes were filled with tears, "Why does my cousin miss me so much? My brother and I have had a very difficult time in the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion these years.

I am just a girl who wants to be loved by my family, so I want to take this opportunity to meet my grandmother. "

"Yes, I asked the servants to pay attention to the time when grandma was out, but I never wanted to harm Prince Yu's Mansion as my cousin thought.

If you think what I did is wrong, I will no longer meet my grandmother.

Is this satisfactory to my cousin?"

Xiao Li was speechless when he was questioned. He was even more at a loss when he saw Shen Baozhao wiping his tears with a handkerchief.

Shen Baozhao tried to hold back her laughter. She had previously guessed that this cold-faced cousin would only respond to soft words and not hard ones, and it turned out to be true.
