The Legend of Zhen Huan: Entering the Palace to Become the Queen Mother

Chapter 271 Sewing masks and developing ambitions

After sending Doctor Lin away, Fu Cha Zhixi did not intend to sit and wait for death.

She wanted to try to get some alcohol out. After all, nothing could disinfect and sterilize better than alcohol.

Of course, masks also need to be made, but this does not require too much thought. The palace maids serving her are all good at housework. As long as she gives a general idea, they can develop a simple version of the mask.

In order to enhance the protectiveness of the mask, she not only had several layers of fine gauze sewed into it, but also added some crushed charcoal chips into it.

The Imperial Hospital sent over some medicines such as Atractylodes lancea, which were crushed and added in a little bit.

Although she wasn't sure whether this would work, wearing a protective mask was better than wearing nothing at all.

"Now, Yuhu, please take some time to sew a mask that looks more delicate, and have someone send it to the emperor when the time comes."

"As for Lingrong, just tell her the sewing method. She is good at sewing and will definitely do better than us."

This will also avoid giving others any opportunity to harm you.

"Your Majesty, now that Concubine An is pregnant, we can just sew it up and send it to Concubine An."

Yuhu asked in confusion as she sewed a mask.

"Now that the epidemic has caused panic among the people, it would be better to let Lingrong have something to do, so that she can distract herself and not worry all the time."

Fucha Zhixi looked at Yuhu and spoke.

"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense. After I finish sewing this, I will go to the Yanxi Palace."

Yuhu agreed with a smile.

"There's no rush. Lingrong is safe in the Yanxi Palace now. Wait until you finish sewing the mask you're going to wear before going."

Fucha Zhixi looked at Yuhu and said.

After asking the maids in the palace to take the materials to sew masks, Fu Cha Zhixi was not prepared to just wait and see.

Although she didn't quite understand the specific operations of distillation, she still understood the general principles.

She asked the eunuchs to prepare a large pot, poured a jar of liquor that had been sent into it, added fire to boil the liquor in the palace, and deliberately placed a large piece of clean gauze on the pot.

After the alcohol in the pot boils, the steam will wet the entire gauze. Then have someone take the gauze off, wring out the water on it, and put the water into a clean small jar. This is the simplest version of alcohol.

Of course she knew that this distillation method was a bit rough, but it was the only other solution.

After Fu Cha Zhixi had instructed his servants to continue distilling, Su Peisheng walked in and bowed to Fu Cha Zhixi.

"Greetings to your Majesty."

"Why is Eunuch Su here?"

Fu Cha Zhixi asked with some curiosity.

"The epidemic is raging right now, and the Emperor is worried about the safety of the Empress and the prince. Unfortunately, he is too busy to come and see the Empress and the prince, so he specially asked me to come and bring some medicinal herbs to the Empress. I hope the Empress can stay healthy and take good care of the little prince."

"If there is anything missing, Your Majesty, please tell the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Ministry of Internal Affairs will not dare to slack off."

Su Peisheng spoke very respectfully.

Even though the emperor was so busy, he still cared about Concubine Xuan. It can be seen that in the emperor's heart, the status of Concubine Xuan and the little prince was different from that of other concubines.

"Your Majesty is already very tired from working on state affairs day and night. I will definitely take good care of myself and little Fuzhen and will not let Your Majesty worry about us mother and son."

Fu Cha Zhixi was really a little touched. As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. At a time like this, the emperor even remembered to ask Su Peisheng, who served him, to come and comfort him. It was obvious that the emperor had some true feelings for her.

As long as I can get a little bit of true love from the emperor, that would be enough.

It may seem like only a small amount, but it can play a big role at a critical moment.

After all, many times, it is the emperor's wishes that ultimately determine the development and direction of things.

At the same time, it also means that all his efforts over the past period of time have not been in vain, and at least the emperor has remembered it.

Now that the emperor values ​​little Fuzhen so much, if the person who ascends the throne in the future is not her little Fuzhen, I am afraid that the fate of them and their son will be no different from that of the current Shu Fei, the Seventeenth.

The life and death of both mother and son are in the hands of those in power.

Even if she were alive, she would have to kowtow and please those in power. She didn't want her children to live in such pain.

Therefore, the more the emperor values ​​herself and Fuzhen, the more she wants to move up, step by step, and finally become the queen, and her little Fuzhen will also become the legitimate son.

That’s right, she didn’t have too many thoughts in the past. After all, her background was enough for her to live comfortably in this palace.

But after having a child, her thoughts gradually changed.

Like all mothers in the world, she wanted to give the best things to her children, and the throne was naturally one of them.

Fu Cha Zhixi lowered his eyelids slightly to hide the ambition surging in his eyes, and said to Su Peisheng with a smile.

"By the way, although I don't understand this epidemic, I also want to help the emperor a little."

"So I thought about it and specially sewed a sturdy mask like this. I added some medicinal herbs sent by the Imperial Hospital. I don't know how effective this thing will be, but it's better than wearing nothing at all."

"This is a mask that I specially asked my maid to sew. I am not a good maid, and only someone with good skills can sew it with fine stitches. For the sake of the emperor's health, I will not embarrass myself. I hope that the eunuch can take this mask to the emperor and ask him to take good care of himself. This palace and Fu Zhen will wait for the emperor to come to Chengqian Palace."

Fu Cha Zhixi signaled with her eyes to let Yu Hu hand the mask she had sewn to Eunuch Su.

"My Lord, you often go in and out of the harem, so the Queen specially asked me to sew one for you. It's not very delicate, but it can cover you up. I hope my Lord will not dislike it."

Suqin also smiled and handed a mask to Su Peisheng that was obviously much simpler than the one the emperor was wearing.

"Oh, my lady, you are too polite. I am too thick-skinned to use such a good thing."

Su Peisheng didn't expect that he also had one, and his face immediately broke into a smile.

He originally thought that if this thing was useful, he would ask someone to make one for him after he returned. He didn't expect that Concubine Xuan would actually sew one for her.

"That's not the way to put it. Although you are slaves, this disease doesn't care about your status. Things are meant to be used by people. Being able to resist some diseases is its greatest function."

Fu Cha Zhixi didn't think it was a big deal. It was just a casual order. It was no different from asking Su Qin to give Su Peisheng a purse.
