Zhuo Qihua

Dezhen was taken aback: "Is this palace serious?"

Zhuo Ji withdrew his hand, moved to the other side, and put his fingers on Dezhen's other hand.After a while, he took his hand away and coughed twice.Seeing this, Dezhen became anxious: "What's wrong with Ben Gong?"

"Alas..." Sighing, Zhuo Ji looked at Jia Guixie who was waiting for his explanation, "Your ladyship, I'm afraid I can only handle the matter of the paper mill with you."

"You tell me what happened to me!" Dezhen was so angry that he sat up and was about to hit someone, but Zhuo Ji hurriedly grabbed his hand.

Zhuo Ji patted his chest in fear, and said, "Cuchu, you must not get angry, let alone hit anyone. You are not alone now, so be careful."

Dezhen's angry face froze, Jia Guixie's doubts stopped, Dezhen stared blankly at Zhuo Ji, and Zhuo Ji still held his raised hand.He opened his mouth stupidly: "Zhuo, Zhuo Ji, what are you talking about, Ben Gong, Ben Gong, what's wrong?"

Zhuo Ji slowly put down Dezhen's hand, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Dezhen, you are pregnant, and it's been two months."

Boom!

Dezhen's body swayed, and Mrs. Jiagui gasped.Dezhen stared at her stomach in disbelief. He is pregnant?Why, he doesn't feel anything at all!

"Wait?"

Dezhen raised his head slowly, tears pooled rapidly in his eyes, Zhuo Ji hurriedly said: "忍俍! Don't cry! Don't cry! Calm down, calm down. Pregnant women must never cry, and their emotions must not fluctuate too much .Follow me, take a deep breath, yes, take a deep breath.”

Dezhen followed Zhuo Ji to take a deep breath, trying to calm down his emotions.But it was so difficult, really so difficult!Jia Guixie: "By the way, Dezhen is really pregnant?"

Dezhen's heart shuddered, and he calmed down instantly.Zhuo Ji looked at Jia Guixie: "Well, it's been two months. The fetus is developing well and the mother's body is also healthy. Guimei, you see, Dexie is pregnant. You just need to keep taking the medicine and keep a peaceful mind , don’t worry too much, when you stop taking the medicine, you will soon be able to conceive a child like De Xie. "

Jiaguixie thumped in his heart, took a deep look at Zhuo Ji, and said with a smile to Dezhen, "Congratulations, Dezhen. Originally, I was worried that even if I drank the medicine, I would not be able to conceive again. Now I see you like this." , I am relieved, and I believe in Shuntong even more."

Dezhen also laughed, and said sincerely: "As long as you obey me, you will definitely be able to conceive."

"I would like to lend you a good word."

Zhuo Ji said: "Cuchu, the child is less than three months old, so it is not appropriate to publicize it. You should be careful in the first three months. If there is nothing important, you'd better stay in bed this month. Just in time, I'll take this opportunity to give birth to the baby after pregnancy. Please tell the two friends about the precautions and dietary requirements in advance."

"Wait, Ben Gong takes the pen and paper."

"My lady, I want one too."

The matter of opening a paper mill was temporarily put on hold, and Zhuo Ji gave lessons to the two friends.Jia Guixie and Dejue carefully recorded that Dejuan wanted to cry several times, but when he thought of Zhuo Ji saying that he wanted to be calm, he stopped by taking a deep breath.Jia Guixie understood Dezhen's excitement very well. If he could conceive, he would be even more excited than Dezhen.

It turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to after pregnancy. Compared with what Zhuo Ji told them, the things they paid attention to when they were pregnant before were simply too rough.After talking about what to pay attention to every month during the entire pregnancy, how to feel whether the fetal development is normal, how to calculate the fetal heart rate, etc., Zhuo Ji began to talk about the points that need to be paid attention to in diet.

"Before I talk about diet, there is one thing I need to tell you two. People who are pregnant will feel sick and want to eat something sour. The first thing many people think of is hawthorn."

Jia Guixie: "Hawthorn is sour and sweet, I like to eat it most when I'm pregnant."

Zhuo Ji frowned on the spot, and Jia Guixie's expression changed: "Hawthorn, can't I eat it?"

Zhuo Ji: "Your niece, didn't the imperial physician tell you that pregnant women can't eat hawthorn?"

"Ah!" Dezhen screamed, the blood on Jiaguixie's face faded, and he said with trembling lips: "No, no."

Dezhen was also frightened, and said: "When I was pregnant with Chenzhu, I ate honey-soaked plums made by my mother. At that time, I was afraid that someone would be harmful to me. I hardly touched the things sent by the imperial medical office. , the daily food is also made by the mother who is sent to the palace at home."

Zhuo Ji walked up to Jia Guixie and sat down, holding his cold hand.Jia Guixie said in a trembling voice: "When I was pregnant with my second child, I vomited badly. The imperial doctor said, you can eat more hawthorns."

Dean's eyes widened.Jia Guixie held Zhuo Ji's hand instead, her breathing was trembling: "Zhuo Ji, is it because of that child of my palace!"

"How much hawthorn have you eaten?"

"A lot, a lot of hawthorns. They are all the freshest big hawthorns. I have specially inspected them, and there is no problem!"

Zhuo Ji hugged Jiaguixie who was shaking all over: "Hawthorn promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis, and has an exciting effect on the pregnancy. It doesn't matter if you eat a few once in a while, but if you eat too much, it may cause miscarriage."

As soon as Zhuo Ji's words fell, Jia Guixie grabbed Zhuo Ji's clothes and burst into tears.The palace guards outside hurriedly opened the door and came in. Seeing Shunyou waving at them, they closed the door worriedly and backed out again.

Jia Guixie cried very sadly, Zhuo Ji patted him lightly: "Che, it hurts to be too sad. You have to believe, that child will definitely come back."

"Zhuo Ji...Zhuo Ji...why didn't you show up earlier...why didn't you show up earlier..." Jia Guixie cried bitterly in Zhuo Ji's arms, Zhuo Ji hugged him, patted him gently, Wipe away tears.Zhuo Ji shook his head at Dezhen, and Dezhen took a deep breath without looking at the sad Jiaguixie.

"He, he will come back, that child will come back."

Jia Guixie withdrew from Zhuo Ji's arms. Zhuo Ji took the handkerchief in his hand and wiped his tears, saying: "Cui, whoever hurts you, you will take revenge. If you cry like this, you will hurt others." Your own body. You have been taking medicine for so long, you can’t let it fall by the wayside, and you can’t ruin it in the hands of people who want to hurt you. When others want to see you cry, you just want to laugh. You are still young, and you have plenty of time and opportunities to have children .”

"Bengong, can you really still live?"

"Yes! It must be possible!"

Jia Guixie closed her eyes, tears welling up.When he opened it again, he wiped away his tears, and there was killing intent in his eyes.

"By the way, you send Dezhen back, I'm going to see His Majesty."

"it is good."

Dezhen got off the kang, shook Jia Guixie's hand, and followed Zhuo Ji to leave.Jiaguixie called Chang'an to wash and dress him up.

After Zhuo Ji sent Dezhen back to Yunyue Palace, he explained to him the dietary precautions and places to avoid, and then returned to Xiangfu Palace.Zhuo Ji was in a low mood, and Xiaohui and Chang Jing were also a little worried.Throwing himself into the rocking chair, Zhuo Ji asked Xiaohui to squeeze his shoulders.

"Master, is your body hurting?"

"No, I'm just a little tired."

"Master, are you all right?"

"There is something, but I can't handle it." Sighing, Zhuo Ji looked at the window and said, "As soon as I entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea. The plot of Gongdou drama was staged in reality, I thought I would take it lightly, no Thinking that I still feel a little uncomfortable, it seems that my blood has not cooled down, which is really strange. I thought it should have cooled down long ago."

Chang Jing and Xiaohui: "Master?"

"It's nothing, I'm just talking to myself, don't listen to it."

Chang Jing and Xiao Hui automatically closed their ears, but they were still a little worried about their master's state.

For the people in the harem, their whole life is hung on the Ninth Five-Year Supreme and his heirs.The purpose of all the struggles for power in the harem is to make oneself live better.Like an outsider, Zhuo Ji looked at Emperor Yong'an, how the servants and concubines in Danyang Palace survived.Despite his involvement in the country, he still feels like an outsider.Whether it's to tease Emperor Yong'an, to help Jiaguixie and Dexie get pregnant, or to please the Queen Mother, all of what he does is also for him to live a good life.The only difference between him and these insiders is that he has no ambition for the so-called power status, and he is not afraid of death.

Jiaguixie's pain of losing his child, the reason why he felt a little sad was not because Jiaguixie was heartbroken, but because he thought of the past.In that world of purgatory, countless children died tragically in front of him.Closing his eyes, Zhuo Ji smiled wryly in his heart, he might have a hard time tonight.

Not long after Jiaguixie went to Fengtian Hall, Emperor Yong'an was furious in Fengtian Hall.The two Imperial Physicians who were specialized in concubines and gave birth in the Imperial Medical Office were arrested on the spot by the imperial guards in the Imperial Medical Office, and then the imperial guards rushed into their mansions to search their homes.One of the two imperial physicians committed suicide by biting his tongue during the execution, and the other confessed completely.The one who confessed that the former empress Cheng used his daughter to threaten him to do something to the concubine who was pregnant in the harem.It is easy to detect problems with soup and medicine, and the two physicians focused their attention on eating.Most of the concubines who are pregnant will want to eat sour food, and the most unsuspecting concubine is hawthorn.The hawthorn that was sent was still big and round, soaked in saffron water.The reason why Concubine Hui was able to give birth to the prince safely was because the queen did not let her eat hawthorn, or in other words, it was the queen who allowed her to give birth to the dragon heir.

The imperial guards found several letters and a few things from the palace in the study of the imperial physician who committed suicide.The commander of the imperial guards did not dare to open these letters, and sent them directly to the royal case of the Holy Majesty. The envelopes of those letters are the imperial envelopes of the palace!Yongandi was furious after reading these letters.Even Zhang Xian didn't know what was written in the letter, but Zhang Xian knew that His Majesty's face was livid after reading the letter, so the content of the letter was definitely not a good thing.

The tense atmosphere once again shrouded Danyang Palace, and all the imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Office checked.News spread that you can't eat hawthorn during pregnancy, and Concubine Xi ran to Fengtian Hall crying.Several maids and concubines who had miscarriages went to the Queen Mother and cried, all of them took hawthorn more or less during pregnancy.

For four or five days in a row, Emperor Yong'an was in Jiaguixie's Huayang Palace.Zhuo Ji didn't respond to this as usual, but he asked Chang Jing to send a letter to Emperor Yong'an, and there were only four words in the letter--too angry and hurt the liver.

The brushes that Zhuo Ji needed were delivered to him by Mingyu as promised, there were dozens of them, with a complete range of large and small models.Mingyu already has some clues, and it won't take long for the results to come out.A major event happened in the palace, and Ming Xi would never leave the palace unless necessary.Zhuo Ji happened to find something for him to do, and he wouldn't feel bored.Dezhen said that he was ill, and the queen mother excused him from paying his respects every day.Emperor Yong'an visited him once, but Dezhen didn't tell the emperor that he was pregnant.He was afraid that the people around the emperor would be unsafe, and that the fetus was less than three months old, so he dared not publicize it at all.

Dezhen lay on the bed every day to give birth, Emperor Yong'an thought he was really sick, and heard that Dezhen said that Zhuo Ji showed him to let him rest more, so Emperor Yong'an didn't think much about it.Jia Guixie was hit too hard, so Emperor Yong'an naturally wanted to spend more time with him.Concubine Xi Gui was also hit. Emperor Yong'an spared her three months of contemplation, and sent Hu Pengju to check her carefully.After all, Hu Pengju was experienced in medicine, and Emperor Yong'an knew that Jiaguixie was not clean after the miscarriage, so he also mentioned this matter to Hu Pengju. Hu Pengju had this precedent. With the help of the female doctor from the Imperial Medical Office, Hu Pengju found that the imperial concubine seemed to have this aspect too. fault.Why didn't the previous imperial physicians find out, it can only be said that the two imperial physicians who were in charge of concubine's concubine's pregnancy were completely black-hearted.

Hu Pengju borrowed from Zhuo Ji's prescription for Jia Guixie, added some of his own opinions, and prescribed three prescriptions for Xi Guifei.Xi Guifei's physical condition is more serious than Jia Guixie's.Emperor Yong'an had disliked Concubine Xi Gui before, but he couldn't help feeling sorry for her when she thought that she lost three children.Emperor Yong'an told Concubine Xigui that as long as her body is recuperated, she will be allowed to conceive.After the emperor left, Concubine Xi burst into tears.

Mingyu is very concerned about what Zhuo Ji asked him to do.Ten days later, Ming Xun personally sent the paints of several colors he had prepared to Xiangfu Palace.At that time, Zhuo Ji was in the pharmacy dispensing face cream, hand cream and lip balm for the maids in winter, and cooling ointment for the eunuchs, as well as chilblain ointment that all palace people used.When Ming Xun came, Zhuo Ji went to the East Pavilion in his "work clothes".

Seeing Zhuo Ji, Ming looked at him in surprise, Zhuo Ji looked down at himself, and said with a smile: "Ming, don't blame me, I'm in the pharmacy, I don't have time to change my clothes."

"No. You are busy, and Ben Gong came here without saying hello. By the way, come and see, is this the kind of oil paint you want?"

Zhuo Ji walked over, and A Gui, Ming's personal eunuch, opened the porcelain bottles that had been placed on the table one by one.Zhuo Ji picked up a porcelain bottle and looked at the color first, then he smelled it with surprise, and then asked Chang Jing to fetch a piece of white paper, dipped it with a toilet paper to feel it, and then drew on the paper.

Zhuo Ji raised his head: "That's it! Mingyu, you are too good!"

Mingyu smiled shyly and said, "It's good if it's this kind. It's actually not difficult. You said that you probably need something, and I just adjust it. Do you think these colors are enough?"

Zhuo Ji checked it and said: "The colors are enough, but the quantity may not be enough. I want more."

Mingyu: "I will send it to you in a few days. Know the dosage, and it will be ready soon."

Zhuo Ji was extremely embarrassed, Ming Xun allocated these, he should give the money, it seemed ugly.Zhuo Ji thought about it and said immediately: "Xiaohui, go and give some of the clothes I made to Mingyu."

"Yes." Xiaohui went out.

Ming Xun hurriedly said: "No need, no need. These will not use much pigment ore."

Zhuo Ji: "It should be. Tomorrow, please tell me how to mix this kind of paint, and I will mix it myself in the future."

There was a gloomy look in Mingyu's eyes, and Zhuo Ji immediately changed his words: "Of course, if Mingyu doesn't mind, I still want to marry you."

Mingyu immediately said: "Of course I don't mind. It's okay to be around. I can do something for you by matching paints."

"Then I won't be polite to you."

Wang Bao brought tea and snacks, Zhuo Ji asked Ming Xun to sit down and drink tea, and he went to wash his hands.After waiting for a while, Xiaohui came back, holding a tray with three porcelain bottles in her hand.After Xiaohui put it in front of Mingyu, Zhuo Ji said, "This is my own face cream, hand cream and lip balm."

Ming's eyes showed surprise, it was unexpected that Zhuo Ji would match this.Zhuo Ji said casually: "It's cold, I use these for Xiaohui, Aunt Hua and the others. I will also use some myself. The ones from the palace are so fragrant, I can't help but sneeze when I use them." Zhuo Ji "In his previous life" he never used these things, but now he is a maid, he can live without makeup, but he can't be lazy when it comes to maintenance.Even if he is willing to be lazy, Xiaohui and Aunt Hua will stare at him.

Mingyu really didn't expect Zhuo Ji to be so kind to his palace servants.He picked up a porcelain bottle, opened it, and there was a pink paste inside.Zhuo Ji leaned over to take a look, and said, "This is a face cream, for wiping your face."

Ming Xun picked up another bottle, which contained a transparent ointment, Zhuo Ji looked at it and said, "This is for lip balm."

On the last bottle, Zhuo Ji said, "This is for hand protection. If you use it well, tell me when you run out."

Ming Xun asked Ah Gui to put it away, and said: "The makeup creams used in each palace in the palace are different because of their positions. If you think the makeup creams are too fragrant, why don't you let the palace secretary take all the makeup creams? Take it here and pick out what you like. If you don’t like it, you can match it yourself.” He glanced at Xiaohui and said: “Just let people know that you, the master, put makeup cream on the slaves, I’m afraid it will be contemptuous If you are killed, it is easy to bring disaster to the palace people around you, saying that they don't understand the rules. It's okay for Your Majesty to spoil you. But if there is a master in the palace in the future, it will inevitably make things difficult for you and your servants because of this. Don't you Teach them to match themselves."

Zhuo Ji was stunned for a moment, and said: "Thanks to you for reminding me, otherwise I really would not have thought of it."

Mingyu: "After you entered the palace, you were imprisoned in the West Third Courtyard. No one taught you the rules of the palace. It doesn't matter now, it's just that in the next year's draft, many newcomers will enter the palace. Don't ask someone with a heart to slander you."

Zhuo Ji stood up and bowed to Ming Xi: "Thank you for your suggestion."

Mingyu also stood up: "Since you are busy, I will go back first."

Zhuo Ji sent Mingyu to the gate of Xiangfu Palace.As a result, when he turned around, he saw the guilty faces of Xiaohui and Chang Jing.Zhuo Ji smiled, and then said with a straight face: "Why are you still in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and learn from your master!"

"Yes!"
