Chang'an Xu's hometown

The person who stopped Princess Chaoyang and the fisherman was Concubine Jing, who came to bring soup to the emperor.

What she presented to the emperor today was a tonic soup, which was made from precious mountain spring water, rare and valuable pigeons, and various precious medicinal materials that were boiled for nine days.

But Princess Chaoyang accidentally knocked it to the ground, and the soup spilled on the ground, without a drop left in the bowl. When Concubine Jing saw this, she was furious and quickly sent someone to stop Princess Chaoyang.

Princess Chaoyang bumped into Concubine Jing and she knew she was wrong, so when she saw Concubine Jing sending people to stop her, she did not resist, so she just watched Concubine Jing's personal maid Liu Qiu Shui send people to stop her.

So, Princess Chaoyang stopped here.

After a while, the fisherman came here. He saw people gathered in front of him. He was very confused, so he stroked his long white beard and walked quickly to the gathering place.

When he arrived at the gathering place, he saw that it was Princess Chaoyang who was stopped by Concubine Jing. He was very confused and asked, "Your Highness, Princess, and Concubine Jing. Concubine Jing, why did you stop Princess Chaoyang?"

After hearing what the fisherman said, Concubine Jing angrily said, "Fisherman, please don't be polite. This girl bumped into me and knocked the medicine I was bringing to the emperor down. It all fell to the ground, leaving not a drop in the bowl for me.

Concubine Jing took a deep breath and continued, "This is a tonic soup, made with precious mountain spring water, rare pigeons, and various precious medicinal materials.

It takes nine whole days and has to go through many tedious steps. The people in the imperial kitchen were so busy these days that they didn't know whether it was day or night, but they were knocked down by this girl and everything was gone.

Fisherman, do you think I can not be angry?

This concubine, I must make this little girl give me an explanation! "

After Concubine Jing finished speaking, she suddenly felt difficulty breathing. She patted her chest with her hands but didn't feel better.

She closed her eyes and fainted on the ground. When the fisherman, Princess Chaoyang, Liu Qiu Shui and the people gathered around saw this, they all hurriedly walked over to Concubine Jing.

After Liu Qiushui came to the side of Concubine Jing, she quickly ran to her side and cried, "My lord, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, I'm a coward, don't scare me."

"Come on, why don't you go find the imperial physician? Why are you all gathered here? Don't you have anything to do? Have you finished the work at hand?" Princess Chaoyang said

After hearing what the princess said, the people around her said to her, "Slave, obey your orders."

The princess nodded slightly after hearing this, and the people around her dispersed and left after seeing this.

When Liu Qiu Shui heard the princess' voice, she thought that Concubine Jing fainted because the princess knocked over all her medicine without leaving a drop.

She angrily yelled at the princess, "It's all because of you that my queen fainted. If my queen has any problems, I will never forgive you. Do you know that?"

After she finished speaking, she fainted due to anger. When Princess Chaoyang saw that she had also fainted, she didn't know what to do.

At this time, the fisherman said to the princess, "Princess, please go to the emperor as soon as possible. Only the emperor can make the decision in this situation.

You go find the emperor and let me take a look. I know some medical skills. They went to the Imperial Hospital to find the doctor, but they didn't know how long it would take for the doctor to arrive.

Let me take a look first.

Princess Chaoyang heard what the fisherman said to her and said to him, "Okay. I can't think of any other solution at the moment, so let's do it your way. I'll go find my father, and you can show it to Concubine Jing and the others first."

After the fisherman heard what Princess Chaoyang said to him, he nodded to her.

Princess Chaoyang nodded to him when she saw him, and walked towards the place where the emperor was - the interior of Qianfu Palace.

After a while, Doctor Liu from the Imperial Hospital arrived.

When he arrived, he happened to see the fisherman treating Concubine Jing.

He was very puzzled and asked him, "Fisherman, you also know medicine? Why have I never heard of it?"

The fisherman scratched his head and said to Doctor Liu: "Old Liu, I have also studied medicine for more than ten years, but because my paintings are so famous, no one cares about me anymore."

Doctor Liu heard what the fisherman said and said to him, "Yes. Now I remember that you also studied medicine for more than ten years. I have some impression of you. But didn't you switch to painting later?

Forget it, never mind. When people get old their memory becomes worse.

How is Concubine Jing doing?"

The fisherman said to him, "There's nothing wrong with Concubine Jing. She just fainted from anger."

"How is the little girl lying next to you?" Doctor Liu asked.

"It was the same with that girl. She also fainted because she was so angry that she couldn't breathe." The fisherman said.

When Doctor Liu heard what Master Yu said, he said, "Oh, that's great, it's not a big deal. Well, it's not a big deal for them to just lie on the ground. How about I call someone to send them back to Yueqing Palace?"

When the fisherman heard what Doctor Liu said, he said to him, "I have asked the princess to call the emperor. The emperor is in Qianfu Palace and should be here soon. We should not move them for now. Let's wait for the emperor and see what he will do."

After hearing what the fisherman said, Doctor Liu said to him, "Okay, since you have made the arrangements, let's wait here for a while."

In Qianfu Palace, the emperor had finished reviewing the memorials and was resting his mind with his eyes closed. But the princess rushed in. She saw him resting his mind with his eyes closed at the table and shouted to him, "Father, please get up quickly. I need you for something."

The emperor was startled by her. He quickly opened his eyes, looked at her and said to her, "Chaoyang, what's the matter? If there's nothing, let's talk later."

Princess Chaoyang looked at him and said while holding his hand, "Father, this is an urgent matter. Seeing you like this, I'd better pull you over." As she said this, she took his hand and pulled the emperor out of Qianfu Palace.

The emperor was puzzled when he saw Princess Chaoyang like this and wanted to ask her something, but when he saw that Princess Chaoyang was so anxious, he didn't say anything.

After a while, Princess Chaoyang and the Emperor arrived at where Concubine Jing and Liu Qiu Shui were lying.

When the emperor came here, he saw that the fisherman and Doctor Liu from the Imperial Hospital were both here, and there were two people lying on the ground, they were his Concubine Jing and Concubine Jing's personal maid Liu Qiu Shui.

He was very confused and asked them, "Fisherman Liu, what are you doing here? Liu, shouldn't you be in the Imperial Hospital? Why is Concubine Jing lying here? And her personal maid should also be in their Yueqing Palace, why are they lying here?

Can anyone give me an explanation?"

After the fisherman and Doctor Liu heard what the emperor said, the fisherman said, "Your Majesty, I don't know what happened. I heard from Concubine Jing and Liu Qiushui that Princess Chaoyang seemed to have knocked over the medicine that Concubine Jing brought to you, Your Majesty, leaving not a drop. Concubine Jing fainted from anger. When Liu Qiushui saw Concubine Jing fainted, she shouted to Princess Chaoyang, and she fainted too."

Doctor Liu said, "Your Majesty, I have no idea what happened. I was preparing herbs in the Imperial Hospital when someone pulled me out and told me that Concubine Jing had fainted and I had to come to treat her. I don't know what happened before that."

After listening to what the fisherman and Doctor Liu said, the emperor felt that this incident seemed to be caused by Princess Chaoyang. So he asked Princess Chaoyang, "Chaoyang, tell me what happened? Why did my Concubine Jing and her maid faint here?"

Princess Chaoyang scratched her hands and said in a low voice, "Father, I didn't do it on purpose. This incident was caused by me, but I can guarantee that I didn't do it on purpose."

"Father, you know that I thought the idea you said was not a good one, so I ran out. But I accidentally bumped into Concubine Jing and knocked over the medicine in Concubine Jing's hand. Not a drop was left."

"After being bumped by me, Concubine Jing didn't feel much pain, but all the medicine had been poured out and not a drop was left. Concubine Jing was very angry when she saw that all the medicine was gone and stopped me. I said, "I caused the problem."

I did not resist Concubine Jing. At this time, the fisherman came.

When he saw it, he asked Concubine Jing. After hearing the fisherman's question, Concubine Jing told him that she had just knocked her down and the medicine in her hand had spilled, not even a drop was left.

She said that this soup is a tonic soup that uses precious mountain spring water, rare and valuable pigeons, and various precious medicinal materials, and it takes nine days to boil.

She might be too angry, so she closed her eyes and lay on the ground after she finished speaking. When Liu Qiu Shui saw this, she ran to Concubine Jing's side.

After I saw it, I sent someone to find the imperial physician. Then, Liu Qiushui heard the voice of her son, and she might have thought that it was because of her son, Concubine Jing, that she closed her eyes and lay on the ground.

Then she shouted to her son, "If there is anything wrong with Concubine Jing's health today, please come and trouble me."

She might have been too angry and fainted.

Your Majesty, you know what happened afterwards, so I won’t say more.

When the emperor heard her say this, he patted his head and said to Princess Chaoyang, "Chaoyang, when will you stop getting into trouble? You are not young anymore. Forget it. I have decided to let Master Han teach you well. If I give you a few more courses, you will stop getting into trouble."

"I have already thought of the solution you and the fisherman have proposed. This is definitely a good idea. But I will not talk about it for now. Let's solve the matter between Concubine Jing and Liu Qiushui first."

Princess Chaoyang heard that the emperor had come up with another good idea, and she wanted to know, but when she heard the emperor say that the matter between Concubine Jing and Liu Qiushui had to be resolved first, she thought that this matter was caused by her, so she did not ask.

Then, the emperor asked Doctor Liu, "Doctor Liu, have you seen my Concubine Jing and her maid? Why are they lying on the ground?"

When Doctor Liu heard what the emperor said, he said, "Your Majesty, I haven't examined them yet. But I know there is nothing wrong with their health. They just fainted because they were too excited and angry.

The emperor was puzzled when he heard him say this and asked him, "You didn't even check their health, how do you know they fainted?"

The fisherman heard what the emperor said and said, "Your Majesty, I am the one who treats the disease. I have also studied medicine for more than ten years. I saw that the princess sent someone to call the imperial hospital, but I don't know when the person called will come, which may delay the treatment.

So I examined them first. There was nothing wrong with their bodies. They fainted because of anger. They will wake up on their own after a while."

When the emperor heard this, he smiled and said, "It's good that there is no problem. Why don't you send someone to send them back to Yueqing Palace?"

So the emperor shouted outside: "Come, send my Concubine Jing and her people back to the palace." When the people outside heard him, they sent people to send Concubine Jing and her people back to the palace.

Then the emperor saw that Du Qingdai, who was held by the fisherman, was gone, so he asked, "Did the fisherman send that little girl back to you?"

When the fisherman heard the emperor ask him this, he was very confused and said, "Your Majesty, no? I have been holding her." The emperor was very confused when he heard the fisherman say this and said, "What are you talking about? Look for yourself, there is no little girl on you at all."

After hearing what the emperor said, the fisherman looked carefully at his body and found that the little girl was not there. After hearing what the emperor said, Princess Chaoyang said to the fisherman, "Fisherman, you didn't lose my indigo, did you?"

After the princess finished speaking, she looked around and found her adoptive mother on the ground where Concubine Jing had poured the medicine.

The foster mother fainted after drinking the medicine, and her face turned green. Princess Chaoyang was frightened when she saw it. She quickly pulled Doctor Liu over and said to him, "Doctor Liu, Doctor Liu, come and have a look at her. How is she? Why is her face green? Did she eat something bad?"

When Doctor Liu saw this, he said, "This girl must have eaten something bad. Hurry and take her back to the Imperial Hospital. I want to give her a thorough checkup."

When Princess Chaoyang heard this, she immediately sent someone to bring a stretcher.

The people sent by Princess Chaoyang carried their foster mother onto a stretcher and prepared to go to the Imperial Hospital.

At this time, the emperor came. He saw that Doctor Liu was hurriedly being pulled over by Princess Chaoyang, so he followed him. However, when he saw the foster mother fainted, he asked, "What happened to this girl? Why did she faint here?"

Doctor Liu replied, "Your Majesty, I don't know what's wrong with her. It looks like she has an upset stomach. I'd better take her to the Imperial Hospital for a checkup."

When the emperor heard him say this, he quickly said, "Why don't you take her away quickly? I have already asked someone to take my Concubine Jing and her people back to their palace - Yueqing Palace.

Doctor Liu, why don't you take a look at this little girl? What did she eat?" Doctor Liu said, "As far as I know, she seems to have eaten the soup that Concubine Jing sprinkled on the ground. It was called the Ten-Ingredient Tonic Soup? It was made with precious mountain spring water, rare and precious pigeons, and various precious medicinal materials that were boiled for 9 days.

When the emperor heard what Liu Taiyi said, he said, "What is that? Ten-ingredient tonic soup? If you boil something for nine days, won't it go bad?"

Doctor Liu said, "When I passed by the imperial kitchen today, the people there said it seemed to be made with some ancient recipe."

When the emperor heard him say this, he said, "Why don't you go and ask, go and ask the people in the imperial kitchen, what's going on?"

Doctor Liu said that the emperor said this to him, "Your Majesty, I will take the girl to the Imperial Hospital first. Please send someone to ask the people in the Imperial Kitchen."

When the emperor heard him say this, he said, "Okay, let's do it."

Doctor Liu said, "Then I will take my leave now."

When the emperor heard him say this, he nodded slightly and said to him, "Doctor Liu, don't worry about etiquette now. This is a matter of life and death."

After hearing this, Doctor Liu immediately took the adoptive mother and hurried to the Imperial Hospital.
