A.D. 1 187 10 was succeeded by Song Xiaozong Neichan, and the year number was changed to "Shao Xi" in the second year. During the reign of Shao Xi, Huang Guifei, Song Guangzong's favorite, was ill, sallow and emaciated, and didn't want to eat. The imperial doctor in the palace used a lot of expensive medicine, but it still didn't work. Seeing his beloved concubine gaunt and emaciated day by day, the emperor was unhappy and worried all day. No choice but to post a list and recruit good doctors among the people. As expected, a charlatan soon announced the list. The doctor felt Huang Guifei's pulse and said, "It doesn't matter if she is ill. Just boil the rock sugar and hawthorn fruit, and eat seven or eight before each meal. In a few days. " At first, everyone didn't believe this charlatan, but who would have thought that after eating it, the imperial concubine miraculously recovered. Later, this way of eating spread to the people, and the people strung it together and sold it. This is the candied haws we see now.
