Chapter 28 Princess Taiping
Ms. Wang didn't know what was going on inside, her heart was burning like a fire, and she still didn't show a trace of panic in front of Zheng Yun.
"What else can I do? I'm breathing even worse. Doctor Zhang came over first, and I'm watching inside right now."
As she spoke, she yelled at the maidservant to bring tea: "It's hard for the old man. One end is at His Highness the Crown Prince's, and he is too busy; the other end has to take care of our Highness, so there is no time for him."
Along with Zheng Yun, besides Chen Jiwen, there are also several well-known doctors of surgery and acupuncturists, all of whom are first-class experts in the Imperial Medical Office.
Zhang Qiren kills first and plays later, I don't know if it's because he came up with some kind of extravagant noble party, apart from the displeasure of being overtaken by others, these few people are more interested in what's going on inside the curtain.
Zheng Yun's heart twitched for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the corner of the curtain lifted, and Zhang Qiren walked out slowly, followed by a young student of fourteen or fifteen years old.
"The students have met Zheng Gong."
Zheng Jun put the tea cup heavily on the table, and snorted coldly: "Now you know that you have met the old man."
Zhang Qiren didn't dare to disobey the old doctor's face, and it was rare to show a respectful expression: "The student has violated the rules, and I hope the teacher will forgive me."
Zheng Yun looked at him coldly, and saw a tired look on his face, and two dark circles under his eyes, obviously extremely tired.
He was very clear in his mind, knowing that Zhang Qiren hadn't been idle all night, so he was not in a hurry to ask the crime.
Chen Jiwen has served Li Xian for several years, and now he is more anxious than anyone else, so he discussed with several surgeon masters for a night, and hurried over to check on King Pei's condition, only hindered by Zheng Yun's solemn expression, he did not challenge him directly. Open the curtain and rush in.
Of course Zheng Jun knew that he was in a hurry, so he didn't question him carefully, so he let go of his anger and glanced at Zhang Qiren, his teacher and his apprentice, "Leave the curtain, the sickness will not dissipate, so hurry up and open it."
Wu Yi dared to disobey the order, quickly rolled up the curtain and tied it aside, then obediently stayed aside, trying to reduce his sense of existence.
Zheng Yun and the group looked inside, only to see a bamboo tube as thick as a finger, one end of which was immersed in a water bowl, and it was still bubbling with thin air bubbles.
The other end was inserted directly into Li Xian's heart, and he was afraid that the next point would kill King Pei.
Everyone was shocked for a moment, and couldn't speak for a moment. Their direct eyes moved from the corner of Li Xian's painfully moaning mouth to Zhang Qirenbo's calm face, waiting for him to give an explanation.
"Is this your idea, or someone else's idea?" Zheng Yun was too old to stand for a moment, so he picked an old pear flower wood chair to sit on.
Although he was sitting, his aura overwhelmed all the students around him.His face was cold and serious, he was not angry and majestic, sitting there, he was an insurmountable Mount Tai.
Under the heavy pressure, only Zhang Qiren still looked the same: "This is the idea of this little student Wu Yi, and it is also something that the students agree to supervise. If Mr. Zheng wants to criticize, I can only do it as a teacher. bear."
Zheng Jun could see this way of survival in danger at a glance, very few people could figure it out, if it was Zhang Qiren's handwriting, it would not be surprising, but the one who came up with the idea turned out to be a student who just entered the official school, it has to be impressive.
There was a lot of praise in his heart, but his face was still solemn: "Take it? Your Royal Highness Pei's thousand gold body, how can you, an imperial physician, afford it! If His Highness gets better and misses you to save people, I can still be in the imperial palace for you." Chang Cheng is there to ask for mercy. If His Highness is not good, ten of you will not be able to afford this crime!"
Since Zhang Qiren dared to take the risk, he must have some confidence in him. On the surface, these words were a stern reprimand, but in fact they let him go, and he was not held accountable for the crime of killing first and then playing.
After all, it is the student he has cultivated for half his life, so he is really willing to suppress him ruthlessly, but in front of everyone, he has to teach him a lesson, so as to stop everyone from talking.
"As for you..." Zheng Yun's gaze sank, and he looked at Wu Yi coldly, "Seeing that you are young, the old man is more courageous than your teachers."
Wu Yi hurriedly knelt down and apologized: "The student is arrogant, please forgive me, doctor."
Zheng Yun reprimanded both master and apprentice before calming down, and told Chen Jiwen: "Go and see how His Royal Highness Pei Wang is doing."
Chen Jiwen was waiting for this sentence, hurriedly walked to Li Xian's bedside, picked up his wrist, lowered his eyes, and quietly checked his pulse.
After a while, his face turned happy: "His Royal Highness Pei's pulse condition has recovered, and his breath has been relieved. I think he will wake up within three to five days!"
As soon as this remark came out, all the people in the hall were dumbfounded, and the few surgeon masters who came in response to the edict looked at each other, admiring and secretly dissatisfied.
The imperial medical office has its own rules, the internal medicine imperial physician did surgery, it just ruined others' face.
But if they really want to push the matter to the head of the surgeon, they may not be able to afford it. Zhang Qiren must have someone behind him to act so boldly.
What's more, now that the old man Zheng Yun is sitting here, no one dares to get angry.Several doctors only expressed relief and relaxation on the surface, and each had their own feelings in their hearts.
"In that case, you and Dr. Chen will heal His Royal Highness Pei Wang together in the future." Seeing that everyone dared not say a word, Zheng Yun took the case and made a decision, "Dr. Take care of King Pei with peace of mind."
-
Li Xian couldn't bear the hustle and bustle due to his serious illness, so he moved far away to the westernmost garden, where only a few bony plum trees stood proudly in the courtyard, and the wind blowing through the courtyard was also lonely.
Zhang Qiren and Chen Jiwen are the two people who often come and go, among them Wu Yi is the most important, living in the other garden almost day and night.
The popularity here is thin, but Ms. Wang doesn’t think it’s lonely. She talks about the future with Wu optimistically: “When the plum blossoms bloom, His Highness will recover from his illness—he loves the plum blossom wine made by the old man the most. Brew a few jars for you master and apprentice."
Wu Yi couldn't help laughing and said, "On behalf of Imperial Doctor Zhang, I thank you in advance."
The two of them were counting the medicinal materials when they suddenly heard the sound of branches and leaves falling outside the window. Mama Wang had excellent hearing and shook her head slightly at Wu Yi: "I'll go out and have a look first."
After finishing speaking, he put the medicine basket aside, and quietly leaned out with his waist down.
Wu Yi only heard a heavy gasp, his heart tightened, and he quickly got up and went out.
A gust of east wind swayed in the courtyard, blowing thousands of leaves like billows, wisps of light and shadow scattered like dark patterns on silk, reflecting a small figure like a pink and white ball under the tree.
Before Wu Yi could see clearly, Mama Wang had already rushed over, half kneeling and half hugging the little thing into her arms.
"My little ancestor, why did you climb over the wall!"
The little girl stretched out her short, fat hands, and pushed Mama Wang out, her voice was clear like jade beads: "Mama Wang, please don't touch me, you smell a lot of medicine."
Mother Wang smiled and moved aside, using her fat and wide body to cover the direction of the wind: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and the princess despises this old slave!"
"No, no." The child shook his head like a rattle, his eyes were full of seriousness, "I'm afraid that I will smell of your medicine on my body, and my brothers will find out that I came to see Brother Xian."
The little guy is quite careful.
Wu Yi looked secretly, the child was wrapped in fluffy clothes, from head to toe he was covered in snow white, except for two blush like sunset glow on his cheeks, he looked like a snowman piled up in the northern winter.
The two eyebrows are like a crescent moon, and the pair of eyes are like morning stars, and the small appearance already reveals a beauty.
Concubine Xiao Shu has been gone for several years, and the only princess who can accompany Shengjia here is the famous Princess Taiping.
Mother Wang brushed off the fallen leaves from her hair one by one, and looked at Taiping's whole body with distress: "It's very windy here, the princess and the old slave should go into the house to warm up."
Little Taiping turned his head, raised his chin quite proudly, and looked in Wu Yi's direction: "Who are you, why don't you come to see me?"
He is not very tall, and his temper is not small.
Wu Yi just complained in his heart, after all, this half-human child is the jewel in the palm of the current emperor and empress. He knew how to be domineering at a young age.
Mother Wang has already pulled her to the side of the room in a hurry, and said with a smile: "This is the elder brother of the imperial physician who takes care of your elder brother Xian. The medicines that your elder brother takes are brought by him himself."
Wu Yi knelt down halfway, and made eye contact with the young Taiping: "Villain Wu Yi, I have seen Your Highness the Princess."
Taiping fixed his eyes on him, blinked his eyes: "Other imperial doctors have such long white beards, why don't you?"
After all, she is still a little girl who is less than [-] years old, Wu Yi couldn't help laughing: "Because I think it's hard to talk when the beard covers my mouth, so I cut it off."
Hearing this, Taiping clapped his hands in surprise, pretended to be mysterious and close to Wu Yi's ear, and said seriously, "I think so too, but others say that a man without a beard has no roots, but what is a root?" ah?"
Cough... Wu Yi's throat was blocked by saliva, and he didn't know where the dignified princess of a country heard these nonsense, and he also whispered with her in a whisper.
"Human roots, like the roots of flowers and plants, grow under the soles of the feet, but they are usually covered with shoes and socks, so it is hard to see."
Taiping raised his feet in a panic, and carefully touched the soles of his feet, but of course he couldn't touch anything.
With a twist of her mouth, she was about to cry: "But I have no roots, so can't I have a beard in the future?"
Wu Yi almost laughed out loud, but still had a serious expression on his face, coaxing the little girl: "Girls have no roots, so they don't grow beards."
Taiping was even more angry, his whole face was wrinkled, and there seemed to be infinite grievances in his eyes: "Why can't girls grow beards?"
Then, as if thinking of something, he carefully pulled Wu Yi aside, and almost threw himself into his arms, and asked quietly, "Brother Imperial Physician, do you have a prescription to make me grow a beard?"
She even changed her name when asking for help, this little princess is really fun.
Mother Wang accompanied me with a half smile, just pretending not to hear anything.
Wu Yi pretended to be contemplative, seeing Taiping staring at him eagerly, as if there was a spring of water in his clever eyes, his heart softened when he saw it.
"There are prescriptions, but children can't eat them. If they eat them, they will gain weight and become ugly."
"Then don't want it, I'll eat it when I grow up, brother imperial physician, remember to leave it to me!"
Wu Yi raised his eyebrows, overjoyed: "This is not difficult, but you have to promise me one thing."
The little head seems to be pecking at rice.
"I'll ask the guards to take you back later, and you have to go back to your mother obediently."
Taiping hesitated for a moment, but still pouted and agreed: "You must keep your word! Also, you must let me see brother Xian."
Wu Yi glanced over Taiping's shoulder, exchanged glances with Mama Wang in silence, and Fang stretched out his hand to make an agreement with her: "You can only stand and take a look from a distance."
Taiping had made an agreement with him on the big-handed-to-small-handed pull hook, and just now he smiled and jumped over with small steps: "Brother Xian, I'm coming to see you!"
This child... Wu Yi couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, and accompanied her to Li Xian's ward with Ms. Wang.
After all, Ms. Wang was worried about her illness and pulled Taiping away. Seeing that her elder brother on the sick bed was thin and pale, as if he was a different person, she was almost frightened, and shrank behind Wu Yi with a wistful expression. There is no trace of arrogance anymore.
Wu Yi hugged her gently with his hands behind his back, and said in a low voice, "The princess has seen it, but she should keep her promise."
Taiping nodded timidly, but still poked out half of his small face from between his arms, and stared fixedly at Li Xian's bed.
Before Mama Wang could lead her out, she heard Xiao Tuanzi screaming from behind: "Brother Xian is awake!"
Wu Yi subconsciously looked at the bed, Li Xian's paper-like face slightly opened a pair of black eyes, and after a while, he heard a very weak laugh.
"Taiping, you're messing around again."
Mama Wang was so excited that she almost lost her voice, she could only hold her cuffs tightly, and calmly went out to order four times: "Quick, quick, go and invite Imperial Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician Chen!"
Chen Jiwen almost trotted over, and Zhang Qiren also arrived later.
Li Xian lay weakly on the couch, with tears in his paint-spotted eyes: "Physician Chen, long time no see."
Chen Jiwen let out a long breath, both happy and sad: "Your Highness has not seen the old minister for a long time, but I don't know that the old minister will come to see His Highness every day, and now I finally watch the moonlight when the clouds open."
Wu Yi also blushed with inexplicable relief. This meeting was like a lifetime away. He has practiced medicine for several years, and he can understand the state of mind of this teacher and the prince at this moment.
Zhang Qiren stood aside and did not mention the hard work he and Wu Yixia had done.
Li Xian is to Chen Jiwen, like a prince to him, and only he knows the hard work he has put in.
Several people were having mixed feelings, and a geese blew lowly outside the window, and the bleak autumn wind opened a long gap in the low-hanging curtain, followed by the sound of horseshoes flashing past, chaotic like rain.
Not long after, he pushed the door open and entered a thin young man, dressed in bright yellow clothes, wearing jade black shoes, with a sword hanging obliquely on his waist, rings tinkling, with high eyebrows, eyes full of autumn water, holding a small cup of jade in his mouth. With a faint smile, he walked towards them leisurely.
Li Xian looked at him weakly: "His Royal Highness."
Wu Yi and the others were about to pay their respects, but were stopped by Li Hong.
As soon as Taiping saw Li Hong, he flung Wu Yi's arm out like a bird with fluttering wings, and slammed into her imperial brother's arms, and couldn't pull it off like brown sugar.
"I heard that Xian's condition has improved greatly, so I came to see him." Li Hong hugged Taiping with one hand, and held Li Xian's hand with the other, frowning slightly, "Xian, you have suffered."
Li Xian raised his head with difficulty, with a gentle smile: "Fortunately, His Royal Highness is willing to give up Imperial Physician Zhang, I heard in my dream that Imperial Physician Zhang worked a lot for me."
The eyes of the two met, and they couldn't help smiling.
Taiping in his arms looked left and right, biting his fingers stupidly, not understanding the mixed emotions in the eyes of adults.
Wu Yi leisurely stood aside, he couldn't help sighing, decades ago, the grandfathers of these two princes murdered their brothers and forced their fathers, he could imagine that two generations later, the royal family of Li and Tang would be like brothers and sisters.
Since ancient times, there is no emperor who is passionate, so it is no wonder that Empress Wu finally replaced him.
Outside the window, three or two beams of warm and bright autumn sun passed through the coffin, lowly reflecting on Pei Wang's pale face, adding a different kind of vitality. In the tranquility, Wu Yi heard his soft and firm voice.
"Hong, next time I hunt in autumn, I will definitely not run away on the sick bed again."
-
Autumn goes to winter, and the New Year's Eve of this year is almost caught off guard.
After the autumn hunt, returning to the familiar official school, Wu Yi didn't have to follow King Pei to see his illness. Fortunately, Chang'an City never lacks good people. Xian's body is fine.
Along with the news of Pei Wang's recovery, came the sad news of the death of British Duke Li Ji.
He was already terminally ill, even Zhang Qiren asserted that he would not live out a spring day, but he has persisted with his temper until now, he is at the end of his life and there is no way to continue.
His death drew a mediocre end to the legend of the 24 virtuous ministers in Lingyan Pavilion, and it also completely ended the beautiful era of wide openness of speech and mutual admonition between monarchs and ministers.
After all, Li Zhi still respected him, and not only allowed him to be buried with honor, but also allowed him to be buried in Zhaoling, and to reunite with his old friends and former masters who had gone one step ahead.
He left just like that, with a posthumous title of "Zhenwu" and a coffin bestowed by the emperor, amidst the mourning of the officials and the common people, he quietly took away the last testimony belonging to the prosperous age of Zhenguan.
Those who have gone cannot turn back, but those who are alive still have to continue.
Li Jingye took over his British dukedom, and he was very prosperous for a while, even Xu Rong, his adopted grandson, was exceptionally promoted to the Imperial Medical Office, and worked under Zhang Qiren, with a bright future.
The scattered rumors are like the winter wind that overwhelms the Northland, making people overwhelmed.Before Wu Yi had time to mourn Li Ji's death, he faced a headache.
That is the year-end test.
