【Rebirth】Emperor's favorite

"Husband, I'm hungry, I want to eat candied haws."

Tuoba Yi suddenly woke up.

Ever since Shao Zixiao became pregnant, she could only hear him say "no appetite" and "can't eat" all day long, and never heard him say "hungry".

Therefore, he hastily said:

"Okay, Zixiao, just wait, my husband will buy it for you right away."

Then, Tuoba Yi put on his coat, opened the window and left the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It wasn't until he went outside that he realized how impractical it was to go shopping late at night.

There is no one in the dark outside, let alone people who buy candied haws!

So he could only call out his hidden guards.

When An Qi heard that Tuoba Yi wanted candied haws in the middle of the night, he widened his eyes and said:

"Your Majesty, are you sleepwalking? Where did you get the candied haws in the middle of the night? Go back and sleep with Young Master Shao."

"No, it's Zi Xiao who wants to eat candied haws."

"This……"

An Qi knows that pregnant people have tricky tastes, but she never expected to be tricky like this...

"Can't wait until tomorrow morning to eat?"

"No, Zixiao said he was hungry."

"The minister will go back to the palace now to wake up the master of the imperial dining room, and then make candied haws for Young Master Shao?"

"Well, that's a good idea. You go!"

"However, I reckon that when the master of the imperial dining room prepares the candied haws and then sends them over, it should be daylight. Maybe it's not as fast as going to the market to buy candied haws..."

"Then you go back to the palace first and ask the imperial dining room to make candied haws, then I will think of other ways."

"Okay, the minister is returning to the palace now, His Majesty must pay attention to safety alone."

"Huh? Are you the only one on duty today?"

"That's right, and today I'm on duty to protect Young Master Shao. Brother thinks His Majesty's martial arts is very good, so let's mainly protect Young Master Shao."

"What are you talking about?! Secret him!...It's fine, as long as you can protect Zixiao, I won't ask these questions."

After watching Anqi leave, Tuobayi began to worry again.

He is the emperor of Daliang, sitting in the world, but now he can't even get a small candied haws!

Tuobayi couldn't help laughing bitterly.

There's no way, it's the person I love the most who wants to eat candied haws, and Zixiao hasn't eaten properly for several days.Even if I let go of the dignity of the emperor today, I still want to get candied haws!

So Tuobayi went to several houses around the market and knocked on the door.

The people inside were either sleeping like dead pigs, or they were afraid that there would be bad people outside the door, so they refused to open the door for him anyway.

Finally, a woman opened the door for him, and he hurriedly asked:

"Girl, do you know if any of these houses sell candied haws?"

The woman was drowsy, but when she heard this, she burst out laughing.

"My lord, you are joking. How could someone who lives here sell candied haws?"

Tuobayi felt that her words were like a bolt from the blue.

"Ah? Why?"

"The people who can live here are not particularly rich, but there are people in the family who are officials. If you want to find someone who sells candied haws, I'm afraid you have to go to the outer city."

"I see. I'm really bothering you, girl."

"It's okay, are you buying it for your wife?"

"Yes, how do you know?"

"I'm a medical girl. Many high-ranking officials will ask me to take care of their wives and concubines' pregnancy. Many women want to eat candied haws because of morning sickness, and many of them still want to eat it in the middle of the night. But few husbands really obey them. For the request of wives and concubines, there are very few people who go out to buy in the middle of the night, even if they send servants out. My son, your affection for your wife is really enviable to others."

Hearing this, Tuoba Yi laughed, and said:

"Thanks to the girl for reminding me today, otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to search here one by one. Then I won't disturb the girl's rest."

"Don't bother me, I don't sleep until dawn."

"what?"

"I need to study medical books. There are too many people during the day to meditate. By the way, are you going to the outer city now?"

"Yes, of course I'm going to the outer city to find out if there is anyone selling candied haws."

"I advise the young master to tell you not to go."

"Why?"

"Because pregnant people must not eat hawthorn. Otherwise, it may cause bleeding or miscarriage."

Tuobayi was shocked by the "bleeding" and "miscarriage" that the medical woman said.

The nurse continued:

"However, pregnant women can eat oranges. I happen to have some sour oranges at home. If you don't mind, we can make orange version of candied haws together."

"Is it really possible?"

"Of course, I have nothing to do anyway."

"But girl, you just said that you want to study medical books."

"This... Well, today I have a relationship with the young master, so I will study those things during the day! Please come in quickly."

"Okay, thank you so much, girl."

While making the orange version of candied haws, the nurse kept asking Tuobayi about his wife.

Tuobayi only thought that she was caring for a doctor, so he told her everything, and asked:

"He hardly eats now, and I'm going crazy. Is there any way to make my wife have a little appetite to eat?"

"Well, you are asking the right person. I happen to have a pack of appetizing powder here, which is specially designed for pregnant women. You just need to pour this powder into the food she is about to eat, and I guarantee that her appetite will greatly increase .”

"Ah? Is there really such a miraculous thing in this world? Will eating it cause any harm to adults and children?"

"Of course not. And young master, I am also destined to be with you today. Therefore, I decided to sell it to you at a cheaper price. The original price was 1000 taels for a pack of appetizing powder, but now it only costs 90 taels of silver!"

Tuoba Yi was shocked when he heard the price.

Does this medical girl think he is the kind of rich man with a lot of money?Where is this buying medicine?This is clearly a money grab!

"Girl, your price is too expensive. And it's so expensive that there's only one pack..."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you men! I just praised you for your deep affection for your wife, but now, you don't even want to spend any money on her?"

"It's not that I don't want to. It's just that your price is too expensive."

"In order to develop this medicine, my hair has turned gray, and I have to pay more. Besides, this is originally for the wives of rich families."

Tuobayi looked at the black hair of the young girl in front of him, and always felt that she was fooling himself...
