I would like to add here that when Yuan Tanlu was discussing with Wu below, the Yedu messenger had already retreated, and he did not discuss countermeasures in front of the messenger.

In the end, Yuan Tan adopted Guo Tu's suggestion, and after entertaining the envoy, he repaired a book and sent it back.

The content of the letter is naturally to find an excuse not to go to Yedu for the time being, and wait for the edict of Da Sima to come down.

......

Just when Bai Xiaowen was busy stabilizing Hebei, Henan was also in turmoil.

Cao Cao had a headache.

After returning to Xudu, looking at the empty palace temple, I really wanted to cry without tears.

What about my Son of Heaven?

Such a large group of people, who were just placed there, said no, it was gone?!

The Prime Minister's Mansion was ransacked, the loss of treasures came second, and the talents were basically gone.

Without the Son of Heaven, Cao Cao suddenly went from being the prime minister of the Han Dynasty to an ordinary warlord.

After all, the Son of Heaven sent an edict to Cao Cao, and although the princes from all walks of life may not attack Cao Cao, absolutely no one dares to join forces with Cao Cao.

Fortunately, the army with the Cao clan and the Xiahou clan as the cornerstone is still in his hands. Although the hearts of the people in Henan states are fluctuating, there is no phenomenon of collapse for the time being.

What gave Cao Cao even more headaches was his four sons!

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Chong were four people, and they were poisonous. When the military medical officers were summoned to come for treatment, they all shook their heads and said they were helpless.

In the end, a famous doctor named Fan A was invited from Qian County, and he used acupuncture and decoction to temporarily hang the lives of the four people.

Cao Cao saw his four sons who were unconscious and asked, "Even if these four are alive, what is the difference between them and dead?

Fan A shook his head: "The poison in the four sons is very weird, and the grass people have never seen it. If my teacher Hua Tuo is here, I may be able to pull out the residual poison. ”

Cao Cao asked, "Where is the Venerable Master?"

Fan Adao: "The teacher practices the world and saves the world, and it is said that a year ago, he appeared in Jiangdong. Now I don't know where I went. ”

The Three Kingdoms Plane is not as good as the information age, otherwise Fan A would call directly and ask Hua Tuo to come to Xu Du to make a flying knife, how convenient.

Cao Cao could only order someone to go to the land of Jiangdong to find Hua Tuo.

However, Fan A said: "Why should the prime minister give up the near and seek the far? At this time, there is a miracle doctor in Qianjun, whose medical skills are ten times better than mine, no less than my teacher. ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed: "Who is this person?"

Fan Adao:

"This person's name is Zhang Ji, the word Zhongjing, and he was originally Changsha Taishou. When this prince was in office, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he opened the yamen widely, did not ask about political affairs, specialized in diagnosing and treating the people's diseases, and his medical skills were excellent, and there were many people who carried luggage and came from afar to seek medical advice.

Later, Mr. Zhang resigned, practiced medicine in the world, exchanged medical skills with famous doctors from all over the world, and now he has arrived in Qian County.

"Originally, he came to find my teacher, but the teacher was not there. Mr. Zhang and I had a conversation. Although it is an exchange, Mr. Zhang is very knowledgeable and has excellent medical skills, which is far better than me. Staying at my house for a few days has been very rewarding. ”

Cao Cao suddenly woke up: "I also heard that Changsha has been guarding Zhang Ji's name for 'sitting in the hall and practicing medicine' for a long time, but I am in Qianjun! God bless my son!"

Fan A said: "If the prime minister wants to invite Mr. Zhang to come, he must go quickly. Mr. Zhang has already told me that he feels that there are many diseases in the world, but there is no detailed medical book, so that quacks are rampant and ignore people's lives. After traveling the world and visiting famous doctors, he will go to Lingnan to live in seclusion and devote himself to writing. ”

Cao Cao nodded and thanked Fan A.

After thinking about it, Cao Cao called Zhang Liao and Xu Chu: "The two of you, together with the military advisor Guo Jia, bring another 300 tiger army, quietly go to Qian County, and invite the divine doctor Zhang Ji to come over." Don't leak the news!"

Although the two generals were puzzled, they didn't ask the reason and gave up their orders.

Cao Cao was still not at ease, so he untied the "Heavenly Sword" from his waist and gave it to Xu Chu: "No matter who is on the way, as long as there is an obstructor, I will kill him with this sword." ”

Qian County and Yingchuan County are adjacent to each other, and the distance is not far.

Zhang Liao and Xu Chu knew that the matter was urgent, so they took Guo Jia and three hundred tigers, marched quickly, and at dusk that night, they invited the divine doctor Zhang Zhongjing from Qian County back to the Prime Minister's Mansion in Xudu.

Zhang Liao reported: "I was waiting to get a miracle doctor, and on the way back, I encountered an assassin intercepting and killing, but fortunately, Guo Junshi found out in advance and failed to let the assassin succeed." ”

Cao Cao said: "Where is the assassin, torture me severely!"

Zhang Liao and Xu Chu lowered their heads, knelt on the ground and said, "The lord, the ministers are incompetent, let the assassin escape." ”

Cao Cao's eyes widened, and he reprimanded angrily: "You are also fierce generals on the battlefield, and there are three hundred tigers by your side;

Guo Jia on the side arched his hand and said, "The lord is gracious." The way the assassin came was very strange, he had been restrained by the two generals Zhang and Xu, and he was tied up with all sorts of flowers, but somehow, he suddenly disappeared, and the rope knot was still there. Many Tiger Ben sergeants can testify to this matter. ”

Cao Cao was suspicious and asked in a low voice, "What is Fengxiao's opinion?"

Guo Jia said: "After the assassin disappeared, he took up a hexagram in the lower place, and the hexagram was like a hexagram that shook the upper and lower dry, and was called 'Lei Tian Dazhuang', and he got the fifth line, the yin and yang positions. "Yi" has clouds: 65, mourning sheep in Yi, no regrets. ”

Cao Cao: "Fengxiao wake up and speak human words." ”

(Lao Ya: Of course I didn't say that.) The original words can be: Feng Xiao don't make a mystery, for me to understand. ）

Guo Jia smiled: "It means that if you lose a sheep on the road, you won't regret it." This assassin was impossible to catch, and if he escaped, he would not be able to do any harm to the lord. The lord treated the man as if he were dead. ”

Cao Cao was thoughtful.

Zhang Liao asked cautiously: "Lord, is it time to invite Doctor Zhang in?"

Cao Cao hurriedly nodded.

Zhang Zhongjing is worthy of being a medical saint in the late Han Dynasty, and when he saw the appearance of the four sons, he did not have the embarrassment of other doctors helplessly, and said indifferently:

"The poison in the four sons is a live poison rather than a dead poison. Live poison seeks advantages and avoids harm, and is good at shifting and hiding, so the power of medicine and stone is difficult to work.

"Fan A's method is to use acupuncture to limit the activity area of live poison, so you can hang your life in the short term, but in the long run, the power of acupuncture and moxibustion will weaken, and the toxic attack will inevitably become more violent. ”

Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "Can you save my son?"

Zhang Zhongjing said: "The benevolence of the doctor, as long as it is within his power, there is no reason not to save it." ”

Immediately turned on the stove to boil the medicine, and boiled a pot of black, fishy medicinal soup. The attendants next to him all wanted to cover their noses, but they were afraid that Cao Cao would blame them, so they endured it very hard.

The corners of Cao Cao's eyes jumped: "You want to feed them this medicinal soup?"

Zhang Zhongjing shook his head and smiled: "Definitely." ”

He immediately ordered four large bath tubs to be prepared, filled them with hot water, and then put the four sons into the water with their clothes removed.

After steaming for a quarter of an hour, I was afraid that it would not be three points cooked, so Zhang Zhongjing ordered someone to serve the medicinal soup that had been cooled and put it under the nose of his son Cao Pi.

Not long after, a small red worm crawled out of Cao Pi's nostrils and impatiently burrowed into the fishy medicinal soup.

As the leader, Cao Pi's physique was already stronger than ordinary people, and soon after the red worm came out, he had already woken up, screamed, and opened his eyes.

Zhang Zhongjing concocted the same method, and soon the four of them crawled out of their noses, and they all crawled out of the noses and woke up one after another.

Cao Cao was overjoyed, and hurriedly rewarded Zhang Zhongjing, and then pulled Zhang Zhongjing and said: "The divine doctor might as well live in Xudu temporarily, why do you need to go to the miasma of Lingnan?"

Zhang Zhongjing frowned and said: "I want to concentrate on writing, and stay in a crowded place, how can I be quiet." ”

Cao Cao forced him to stay: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry. I will not give you an official position, but only vacate three quiet rooms for you in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and allocate a few servants to wait for food and living. The rest of the idlers are not allowed to be disturbed, or I will kill them!"

Zhang Zhongjing just shook his head.

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Okay! Zhongkang (referring to Xu Chu), you take the Tiger Benjun to escort the divine doctor, and go to the pavilion to rest." Hugh is going to shorten the number of courtesies!"

Xu Chu responded: "Mr. Zhang, please!"

Zhang Zhongjing said: "Is the prime minister going to imprison me?"

Cao Cao just smiled cheekily: "It's just for love, I can't bear to bury Lingnan with the holy hand of medicine." ”

Zhang Zhongjing was helpless, he was really unreasonable when he met Xu Chu, so he could only go down with him.
