Chapter 45 Recognizing You as a Teacher
Chapter 45 Recognizing You as a Teacher
After a while, the long change of tone passed by the gate of the county prince's mansion, through a layer of half-opened green screens, mixed into people's hazy and half-awake sleepiness.
Li Hong propped up one hand crookedly, his eyes were still focused on a book on the table, his ears moved slightly, and he felt a little surprised: "I'm not in Chang'an, I don't hear the evening drum, and I don't even know it's the third watch. "
The crown prince is still diligent and conscientious, and all the people below have to stay up all night together, their eyes squinted for a long time before they heard Li Hong's voice.
"Tomorrow, I will invite several imperial physicians to go to the dozens of households mentioned by Wang Taishou to check one by one. Wang Gong, the imperial physicians have diagnosed smallpox, ordered them not to go out, and closed the windows and doors at home for more than a month. Subsidize five shi of grain."
Wang Ling counted, where else could the 400 shi grains come from?The prince made it clear that he was going to hollow out his granary!
It was Wang Chongzhang who stood up first: "Since the official storehouse is not enough, I am willing to pay for the two hundred shi of grain by myself, so as to reduce the burden on the official family."
Wang Ling glanced at Wang Chongzhang gratefully. After all, he is a member of the same family, and his branches and leaves are connected. He is willing to share the burden for him at this time. It seems that he will have to move around more in the future.
"If that's the case, then the remaining half..." Li Hong covered his hands and yawned, with tears shining in his eyes.
These words were short of pointing out Wang Ling by name, Wang Ling was so obedient, and immediately said: "I would like to imitate the prince of the county."
"In this case, this matter is finalized." Li Hongdao, "Everyone has worked hard all day, let's go and rest first."
The crowd had long been wilted like straws beaten by frost. When they heard this, it was like a spring breeze breaking through the ice. Immediately they regained their energy, raised their eyelids one by one, and bid farewell respectfully.
In the huge front hall, only Li Hong, Wang Chongzhang, Zhang Wenguan and Xiao Dezhao were left.
Zhang Wenguan was the first to laugh out loud: "Okay, old man Wang, this trick is really good."
Wang Chongzhang was not modest: "Don't talk about two hundred shi, even if I want to give it all, I am obliged to do so. I just need to find some oil and water from that big rat, so that I can feel at ease!"
"If you ask him for two hundred stones as soon as you open your mouth, he will definitely feel unhappy and be reluctant to give up the effort." Xiao Dezhao has the most kind face on his face, but he is as shrewd as his old friend in his heart, "Let him He thought that he was required to give all, and let him complain in his heart, but when the prince mentioned sharing half, he immediately agreed as if he had earned half, so he was not very popular. gone."
Wang Chongzhang laughed: "It's still the crown prince's clever trick. He said that he could make Wang Ling happily sell two hundred shi of grain. I still don't believe it. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it."
Several people laughed with Wang Ling behind their backs, and then dispersed in the dim candlelight.
-
Dispersed from the front hall, Wu Yi also became tired very quickly, he was fine, his teacher Shen Hanshan was indeed drunk and unconscious long ago.
He first helped Shen Hanshan to rest in the wing room in the west garden, tucked his hands and feet into the quilt to make a tight rice dumpling for him, and then returned to the east courtyard with peace of mind, and tiptoedly pushed open the door.
When entering the house, there will be a ray of pure moonlight, like broken jade and ice slag scattered all over the ground, making people reluctant to put in more strength, for fear that they will crush a little bit of it.
Wu Yi tiptoed into the room and took a peek, but Li Jing was not snuggled up on the bed. Instead, he was sitting alone at the table, with his head buried in the "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" he was reading this morning. In the middle of the night, the eyelids were half-closed, obviously waiting to fall asleep.
Just as Wu Yi wanted to quietly put the little guy to bed, Li Jing himself was awakened by his rustling footsteps, and happily called out, "Brother Yi!"
Wu Yi hurriedly raised his middle finger. It's the middle of the night, so it's not good to wake up others.
Li Jing obediently kept silent, but looked at Wu Yi with a pair of lacquer-painted eyes, three-pointed eyes rubbed seven-pointed moonlight, and a pair of cat pupils that glowed at night shone brightly.
Wu Yi urged him to sleep in a low voice: "How did you survive until this hour?"
Li Jing also imitated and whispered: "I'll wait for you to come back."
Wu Yi not only couldn't help laughing: "Don't you dare to sleep alone?"
When I was in Yuanzhou, I didn't see this child so clingy, but he was two years older, so he became more obsessed.
Li Jing shook her head seriously: "I read "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", and I couldn't understand some words, so I want to wait for you to come back and tell me."
Unexpectedly, despite his young age, he was quite diligent and studious, so Wu Yi leaned over and read a book with him under the moonlight.
"Which sentence do you not understand?"
"The scriptures say that if the pulse has three pulses or six pulses, what is it? [1]... I have only read "Shen Nong's Herbal Classic" and this "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", so I don't know which medical book this is from. Even the scriptures don’t make sense.”
"This sentence comes from the "Nanjing", which means that the type of pulse can be seen by the force of the pulse. For example, a doctor can cut the pulse with the same weight of three small beans when he presses the pulse with his fingers. , is the pulse of the lung qi; the pulse that can be cut with the same weight of six small beans is the pulse of the heart qi, and so on..."
Wu Yi talked to him in detail, and explained this "Pingmai Method No. [-]" word by word.Although the content of the medical scriptures was boring, Li Jing listened with gusto, propping his chin with a pair of small hands, more seriously than listening to a story.
Two people, one big and one small, read this medical classic full of previous experience and wisdom for most of the night. Wu Yi explained it to Li Jing once, and felt that the meaning was more transparent. Li Jing was always thirsty for water during the day. After reading it wholeheartedly, it was only at this time that I really understood the sublimeness of it.
The two of them faced the clear moonlight, one was speaking, the other was listening, and each got something. After a few pages of "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" were turned over, the sky had already revealed a glimmer of light.
The morning light that broke through the clouds was replaced by moonlight, and slipped into the house through the propped up window, outlining two people who were talking softly.
Wu Yi stayed up all night, and two faint black circles appeared on his porcelain-white and delicate face, like slight blemishes on jade, which made people feel distressed when they saw it.
Li Jing himself slept in after a day of idleness, so he was naturally full of energy. Seeing the tired look on Wu Yi's face that couldn't be rubbed off, he secretly regretted and felt uneasy.
I heard that the imperial physicians have been very busy recently, and brother Wu Yi was so busy yesterday that he had to give him lectures all night, he must be very tired.
He lowered his head and pinched his fingers: "Brother Yi, I'm sorry, I should ask you later."
Wu Yi yawned lazily. He used his brain too much and was not very smart. He only realized it when he yawned. The child felt ashamed and felt that he was delaying his rest.
He smiled and rubbed Li Jing's head: "Even Confucius said that people should be sensitive and eager to learn. What is there to apologize for?"
Seeing that he was still looking dull, Wu Yi half-joked again: "The so-called teacher is someone who teaches lessons and solves puzzles. Now that I have answered so many questions for you, shouldn't you call me Master instead? "
This was originally a joke to amuse the children, but Li Jing took it seriously, blinking her bright eyes like pearls, with a look of surprise: "Then you will be my master from now on, you can't just leave me alone Ran."
As he said that, as if afraid of Wu Yi's repentance, he quickly knelt down straight, his forehead fell to the ground, and he kowtowed loudly three times.
Wu Yi's already sore forehead twitched suddenly, remembering that in the past, in order to save his mother, this child also knelt down in front of him recklessly, and did not turn back until he hit the south wall—in fact, he refused to turn back when he hit it, and insisted on bleeding Liu forced him to nod and agree.
"Okay, since you recognize me as a master, you must follow the rules of master and apprentice."
Wu Yi helplessly pulled him up from the ground, and took a closer look at Li Jing's forehead. Fortunately, this clever little brain was only slightly scratched.
Li Jing raised his head, his eyes were serious: "Master, tell me."
Wu Yi said: "First, you are not allowed to call me Master in front of outsiders, but call me Brother Yi."
He was just a new student, and he was someone else's apprentice. It would be too frivolous to accept a young man as an apprentice at this time.
What's more, he recognizes Li Jing as his apprentice, Shen Hanshan may not be willing to have this disciple, recently he has many responsibilities, and if he bothers with such trivial matters, it is really irrelevant.
Li Jing's cheeks puffed up, obviously a little disappointed, but she still nodded, quietly hiding her disappointment in her heart.
Wu Yi touched his forehead and said solemnly: "Second, you are not allowed to kneel on me in the future. There is gold under the man's knees. You can kneel to the sky, kneel to the ground, or kneel to your parents, but with me, unless you do something wrong I will punish you for this matter, you are not allowed to kneel down easily."
"Can……"
"Since you recognize me as your master, you have to listen to me. This is also the third rule." Wu Yi withdrew his hand, and it was rare for him to speak harshly in front of the little guy, "If you don't obey, I will never be your master again. gone."
Li Jing had never seen Wu Yi look so cold and stern, and immediately understood the meaning of these words. Not only did his master stop crying, he also couldn't use bitter tricks.
"As long as you violate these three rules once, I will cut you off as a master and apprentice, and we will never see each other again." Wu Yi stretched out his hand and handed it to Li Jing, "How?"
Li Jing hurriedly hooked his little finger, pulling the hook agreement like he did when he was a child.
"It's a deal, Master!"
The hook agreement is over, that is the rule to be followed for life, Li Jing silently recited it a hundred times in his heart, for fear that if he made a mistake, Wu Yi would silently leave it behind.
