Under the leadership of the guards, He Shen found the place where the imperial doctors lived, because they were about to hurry, so the imperial doctors were sorting out their things and preparing to set off with the team.

He Shen watched outside the door for a long time, and suddenly saw an old man in his sixties and seventies walking out of the courtyard, this person was the imperial doctor Zhou Taifu, who had served in the imperial pharmacy and served the emperor for decades.

"Imperial Doctor Zhou. He Shen hurriedly stopped the other party.

"And my lord. After the old man saw He Shen, he hurriedly walked over and bowed. Although he is much older than He Shen, the Imperial Pharmacy is subordinate to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and He Shen is also the head of the Internal Affairs Office, which belongs to his superiors and direct leadership, so etiquette is indispensable.

"Imperial Doctor Zhou, a long journey, tired travel, I don't know if my health is good lately?" He Shen asked with concern, and he worked hard to show a sympathetic appearance for his subordinates, on the one hand, to pave the way for what he was going to say next, on the other hand, the other party is a senior imperial doctor in the imperial pharmacy, and if he is sick or something, he has to trouble the other party.

"Very good, very good, tired and worried about adults. "Imperial Physician Zhou was flattered, and he didn't usually see such a greeting with adults.

"It's nothing, Imperial Physician Zhou is the pillar of the imperial pharmacy, if your body is good, the emperor's body can be good, and the emperor's body is good, and our Qing Dynasty can prosper forever." By the way, I don't know how the emperor is doing recently, can Imperial Doctor Zhou see it for the emperor?" He Shen suddenly turned around, turned in a big circle, and finally began to get to the point.

"A few days ago, when I was staying in Texas, the lower officials diagnosed the emperor's pulse, except for the lack of kidney essence and yin and yang, there was no other major problem, just need to rest more, and eat more tonic things that can nourish qi and kidneys in the diet. ”

"Really?" He Shen sighed when he heard this, and then said while shaking his head, "Alas, Imperial Doctor Zhou, I can't hide it, in fact, the emperor is like this, and it has something to do with me." ”

"Lord He, the emperor's kidney deficiency, what does it have to do with you?" Imperial Physician Zhou was stunned for a moment, his eyes kept looking at Lord He's body, the emperor's kidney deficiency has been around for a long time, there are so many concubines in the harem, night and night, day and day, it's strange if there is no kidney deficiency, this is a common problem of the emperor.

Even the emperor himself knows, so in recent years, he has paid special attention to the maintenance of his body, and he is also very restrained in terms of nightlife, but after the southern tour, the emperor has regained the romance of his youth, and he never leaves the woman every night, and he has never refused the woman sent to the place, so the emperor has recently begun to have kidney deficiency again. But now, the Lord actually said that the emperor's kidney deficiency was related to him, could it be ......

When I was in the palace, I heard that the emperor often passed into the palace late at night to discuss important matters with adults, and when it was too late, he even shared the same bed.

"When the emperor left the capital at first, his body was not abnormal, and the reason why this was the case was because he had not been restrained in his night life recently, and this qiē was because the official dedicated the ancestral elixir to the emperor, so he led the emperor to indulge in excessive desires and kidney deficiency and physical exertion. He Shen explained.

Imperial Physician Zhou showed a look of sudden realization, "Lord He, Xia Guan has also heard people say that after the emperor took the elixir of Lord He, the dragon spirit and tiger are fierce, and the second spring is glowing." Xiaguan has always wanted to ask for advice and your lordship, what kind of elixir did you give the emperor, and it would have such an effect, more effective than the imperial medicine in the imperial pharmacy?"

"This is an ancestral secret recipe that cannot be divulged. "Ask God for the secret recipe? Even if you get the secret recipe, I'm afraid you will use those fairy grasses every day.

"Yes, such a magical elixir, Fang Zi will definitely be very secretive. I wonder if Lord He can reward the lower official with a gift, let the lower official try it, and specialize in research?"

He Shen frowned, he came to the other party to persuade the emperor to take less elixir, but he didn't expect that before he could speak, the other party took the initiative to ask him, if there was, he would come here?

"Imperial Physician Zhou, to be honest, the refining of the elixir is very difficult, and the success rate is also very low, often only one success occurs dozens of times, and this official came to Imperial Physician Zhou this time for this matter. The official saw that the emperor's eyes had turned black in recent days, and he thought it was caused by excessive indulgence. Imperial Doctor Zhou, you are an expert, you should know that it is a medicine that is poisonous, not to mention the kind of medicine that cheers at night, even if it is spiritual, it will be depleting to the body. You are the imperial doctor who is responsible for the emperor's health, can you persuade the emperor to reduce the number of times the emperor takes it, or simply recuperate for a period of time to avoid overwork, after all, we still have many things to wait for the emperor to decide. He Shen finally said his purpose.

"I see, Lord He is really the pillar of the court, and I am heartbroken for the emperor and our Qing Dynasty. Imperial Physician Zhou was in awe of He Shen's attitude, originally thinking that the other party was a person who could only play with power, but now after listening to the other party's words, he suddenly changed his attitude towards the other party, "It's just with my lord, haven't you told the emperor?"

"It's been said, but the emperor doesn't listen. He Shen said with a wry smile, he did say it, but the emperor always thought that he was private and stingy.

"My lord, the emperor didn't listen to what you said, so how could the emperor listen to what the lower officials said?" Imperial Physician Zhou's face also showed a wry smile, who in the entire Qing Kingdom didn't know that He Shen and Lord He were the number one celebrity in front of the emperor? Even the emperor can't listen to such a celebrity, let alone a doctor?

"Imperial Doctor Zhou, this is a bad word, you have been in charge of the emperor's body for several years, the emperor can live for so long, it all depends on your superb medical skills, to say that in this palace, the person the emperor believes in the most is definitely you. Your words, in front of the emperor, are extraordinarily heavy. If you ask the emperor to pay attention to his body, the emperor will definitely pay attention. ”

He Shen even blew and patted, and Taiyi Zhou was dizzy when he listened. It doesn't matter who you are, no matter how old you are, you love to listen to good words. And when it comes to saying good things, He Shen is definitely an expert among connoisseurs. When you see people, you talk about people, and you talk nonsense when you see ghosts, otherwise you wouldn't have your current position.

"Okay, since you believe in the lower official so much, then the lower official will go to meet the emperor in a while, and while checking his body, he will tell the emperor what he said. Imperial Physician Zhou said seriously, the emperor believes in him so much, of course he is also responsible for the emperor's body.

"Then there is Dr. Lao Zhou. He Shen's heart finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"What if the emperor doesn't listen to the lower officials?"

"The emperor is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and he is also the emperor of you and me, and the emperor's body is related to the future of the Qing Dynasty, so sometimes, you can't let the emperor's temperament come. He Shen looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he whispered to Imperial Physician Zhou, "In order to make the emperor pay attention to his body, I think that Imperial Physician Zhou can give proper weight to the actual situation when he examines it......

"My lord, isn't this a crime of deceit? Imperial Physician Zhou was taken aback, he didn't expect that Lord He would say such a thing, he quickly looked around, for fear that someone would hear it, if this reached the emperor's ears, he himself would be affected.

"Imperial Doctor Zhou, what are you panicking about? Don't forget, we are doing this for the sake of the emperor, even if the emperor knows, I believe he will understand the hardships of us courtiers. Therefore, although you put down your boldness and do it, if the emperor blames it, I will carry it for you. He Shen patted his chest and said to Imperial Doctor Zhou.

"Really?"

"When did Shen and I ever deceive someone?"

Imperial Physician Zhou looked at Lord He in front of him, and said that Lord He had done something to deceive his superiors and subordinates, and now it seems that this is really the case.

He Shen took out a gold ingot from his sleeve and handed it to Imperial Physician Zhou, in order to reduce the emperor's dependence and demand for the elixir, he also fought. After all, every time the emperor needs an elixir, he has to pay a price of 10,000 taels of silver, and compared with tens of thousands of taels of silver, a gold ingot is really nothing.

"And my lord, you, what are you doing here?" Taiyi Zhou said in surprise, he didn't want to take the silver, everyone knew that the silver of the lord was not so easy to collect, let alone gold?

He Shen shook his head, pushed the gold into the other party's hand, and held it tightly, and said earnestly, "Imperial Doctor Zhou, this is what you deserve." The future of the emperor and the future of our Qing Dynasty all depend on you. ”

"Xiaguan understands that Xiaguan will do his best to live up to his sincere heart to the emperor. Doctor Zhou couldn't survive the other party, so he could only accept the silver, and the center unconsciously added a sense of mission.

He Shen only showed a smile on his face after seeing Imperial Physician Zhou accept the gold, although he and Imperial Physician Zhou have a superior relationship, and they can directly order the other party to do things for themselves, but the meaning of accepting his money is different.

confiscation, he doesn't believe it, and the other party won't necessarily do his best. After receiving it, he can rest assured that the other party will go all out. Besides, after receiving his money, the two are people in the same boat, if something happens, no one can try to escape, and they can't do their best. This is his way of being an official.
