Chapter 40: The Past Has Returned

The days are getting shorter, and Su Hui's stay in the palace is getting longer and longer. She took over the pulse case of the eldest princess, and often went up and down with Imperial Doctor Ling, and the two of them had a lot more common topics all of a sudden, and Ling Yang poured beans into her like pouring beans for outsiders before, she couldn't wait for her ears to be bad, where did she know more about these things, the more capable she was?

The eldest princess of Zhaoyi, Sheng Chuwei, was born in the spring of the first year of Mingguang, when it was only one month old and two months after the death of the first emperor. The princess is a posthumous son, not the younger sister of the present, but the Empress Yuan of the first emperor. Yuan's five years have been sluggish, and now she is very fond of this young sister, since she was born, she has been personally raised with dignity, the only thing that does not go well is that Queen Yuan is pregnant with her for a long time Qinggong has been changed, not only when she gives birth, but the child is also congenitally insufficient, so she has to take medicine and calm it for the time being, so as to eradicate it the day after tomorrow.

The things in the palace can't be thought about, since ancient times, the imperial doctors have a thin life, and Su Huihui is not willing to repeat the mistakes of those unlucky medical officials.

Taking a child is an individual lĂŹ work, and Su warmed up for another month. The hospital was reprimanded by the cane, and a small group of people who were jumping up and down were calm and concentrated, concentrating on preparing for the doctor's evaluation this month.

Although she became a recognized private person, she was one of the main examiners in this evaluation as the titular judge of the Left Court. Doctors are divided into four seasons every year, and this time it is a three-year examination, and a total of 70 medical students and doctors from Tai Hospital have to participate, without exception, and the personnel sent to various prefectures and counties have to take advantage of the last autumn breeze to rush to Fanjing.

The autumn in Fanjing was so cold that she added her clothes one by one, and she had to tighten her robe every three days when she entered the Liuyu Palace, and finally she didn't even want to take off her cloak. The little princess dragged her to run around and refused to sit on the chair, Ling Yang was responsible for taking some gadgets to attract her attention, and Su Huihui was responsible for seizing the opportunity to turn her up and down for examination.

After two hours of sweating like rain, Su Huihui couldn't walk steadily, and Ling Yang was not much better. Today, the little ancestor poured the medicine in front of them in a narrow-waisted plum bottle, and then stood on the Bogu shelf and hit the bead curtain with the bottle to listen to the sound of ping-pong.

When he went down the steps, the palace maid didn't follow, and Ling Yang panted and said, "Master Su, the court has decided to ask you to go to the official office to discuss the evaluation after leaving the palace." ”

Su Hui said: "How did you get these evaluations in the past?"

Ling Yang knew that she was definitely afraid of things, so he said lightly: "Actually, I don't bother much, I'm just tired, the volume was made by the Ministry of Rites two months ago, the court envoys, the court judges, and the imperial doctors and officials assisted, which is no different from previous years." Even if there are a lot of questions, it is also more difficult, because this time I have to directly promote the imperial doctor. Master Su doesn't know that the roll is ready?"

Su Huihui said embarrassedly: "I'm ashamed to say that I have made this court judgment since the grace of His Majesty, but the news is the most closed one, if it weren't for you, it would really be a black eye hitting the wall." ”

Ling Yang thought for a moment and said thoughtfully: "Lord Su, according to the subordinate officials, reading the news is secondary, and it is the most important thing for adults to know how to deal with trouble. Adults are judged, so there is no need to wait with me. ”

This was a tactful accusation that she was not very concerned about the affairs in the hospital, and Su Hui said: "What Lord Ling said is very right, but I have been ......"

Ling Yang said with a smile: "Lord Su should not be like this when you go to the room of Lord Daosi, your lord does not treat the lower officials as outsiders, it is because of personal relationships, but what others talk about is Mingli's official affairs." Adults feel that they are not confident enough, so they must show some momentum, otherwise you will have no chance to push away some unnecessary things in the future. ”

Su Huihui was greeted by him and asked, "Ling Yang, you and Master Yuan are teachers and students, right?"

Ling Yang walked in front of her, and his steps stopped for a moment, "Lord Su, but you think that Lord Yuan asked me to mention you?"

Su Hui warmed his cloak and did not answer.

"Lord Yuan would not have said it if he had this intention, it was the lower official himself who had always been bold and reckless. However, when Xia Guan was still a doctor, he did many ridiculous things, thanks to the hospital envoys to relieve the siege. ”

Su Huihui never asked about his family background, and she never took the initiative to inquire about the content around her, she was a very selfish and indifferent character, and she didn't know how to develop it.

"The elders of your family have a great friendship with Lord Yuan, it is not common to be an imperial doctor at this age, and I don't think the status of the other four imperial doctors is as important as yours. ”

Ling Yang sighed: "Master Su, it's good to keep these words in your heart, if you really can't help it, can you wait until you leave the palace and ask?"

Su Huihui remembered the way out of the palace gate, the two of them walked very slowly, and she really didn't want to go to see Si Yan alone. As a newcomer who has no foundation in mastering the weaknesses of others, she has to be careful everywhere, and she can do less than one thing.

The door of the Tai Hospital was close in front of him, the servant took the cloak and medicine box in the corridor, Su Huihui quickly went to his room and drank a cup of tea to suppress the shock, but before he was halfway through, the official who came out of the door urged her to go over outside the door.

The judge of the right court sat on a rattan chair, and the two rooms in the south hall belonged to him the most frugal, and the furnishings were almost the same as those of the imperial doctors, and even the tea was affordable for the common people.

Su Huihui thought about Ling Yang's words, and as soon as he got to the stool, he preemptively said: "Master Si, I am young and knowledgeable, and I have never been exposed to evaluation before, this time I have to rely on the guidance of my seniors, adults must not ......."

"Master Su, I think you have misunderstood. Si Yan took a sip of tea, still with a dull expression, "I have no intention of talking to you about the evaluation today." ”

Su warmed up a spirit, she was killed by Ling Yang's kid...... Did he guess that the right court was going to talk about the evaluation matter, or did he deliberately deceive her?

The corners of Si Yan's mouth twitched slightly, a cool gaze swept over her face, put down the scroll and said, "Don't you know what I'm going to say to you, Lord Su?"

Su Huihui adjusted his posture and said idly: "I really can't think of anything that Lord Si needs to report to me." ”

When she said this, her heart beat a drum, no matter the difference between left and right, Si Yan was of the same grade as her, and she couldn't throw this sentence unless she had to.

The other party frowned obviously uncomfortably, and his tone remained unchanged: "Master Su is young, so he doesn't understand the hardships of the old people in the Tai Hospital." I invited you here today on the orders of Yan Gongzi, and even though I know that 10,000 adults do not want to see me, I have to do as I am told. ”

Su Huihui was stunned, she hadn't heard from the Yan family for a long time, what did Yan Xugui call her to do at this time? The doctors funded by the Yan family in the Huimin Pharmacy played a role, which made her very worry-free, it shouldn't be a problem in this regard, that was the only thing she involved in the Yan family and Si Yan, and she didn't want to review the last thing she wanted.

Si Yan said: "Master Su, now that both of us are in the Tai Hospital, I can't ask you to forget the past, but your lord has been sentenced for two months, and you should also find some ways." After the Yan family was removed, the family property was liquidated, and there was a meaning of moving south to Lizhou, but the Yan family was not ready to let go of the business of Huimin Pharmacy. I, the ambassador of the pharmacy, can't get the blue eyes of the son, so I have to rely on you as the pillar. ”

"What do you mean, sir?" she asked warily.

Si Yan's eyebrows moved, "Master Su, do you know that Master Yan has asked His Majesty for some people from the Tai Hospital to go south? ”

Su Huihui was really stunned, Yan Xugui suddenly came to this hand, didn't he know Sheng Yunyi's thoughts? Sheng Yunyi would let her, the idle court sentenced for his crimes and meritorious service, leave the capital? Or did he think that Sheng Yunyi owed the Yan family a lot and didn't intend to be an official dignitary? It sounded like a joke!

Si Yan sat silently on the chair, looked at Su Hui's stunned face, and said for a while: "There is one more thing that Master Su should explain to me." ”

"Yan Gongzi asked Master Si to call me as a deputy envoy, presumably because it was related to the last time. ”

Su Huihui waited patiently for a while, and Si Yan pinched the lid of the cup and said, "The medicine you made last time has been sent to various places, and the effect is not visible for the time being, but how sure do you think you are?"

A trace of fluctuation flashed in his ancient eyes, "The number of people who died violently in the state capital has only increased in two months, what does Lord Su think?"

This sentence pierced Su Huihui's heart. She stood up on the edge of the table and said coldly:

"Master Si, you still have the face to sit here and ask me to give you an explanation! Don't forget what you have done, as a high-ranking official of the Tai Hospital, you don't know that you want me to explain to you!"

Si Yan held the teacup steadily, indifferent to her fierce words, his eyes swept over lightly, and Su Huihui was even more angry. If he hadn't deliberately asked her to go to Junjinfang late at night that day, she wouldn't have gotten the secrets of the imperial court from Yan Xugui's mouth, and she wouldn't have looked for the prince at the Houfu birthday banquet, so she wouldn't have been put into the Tai Hospital in a daze just because she helped the injured Sheng Yunyi outside the mansion, and she was firmly held by Jinshang!

"Since I came to Tai Hospital for two months, I have always been respectful to you, and now I really regret coming here. If it weren't for Yan Gongzi's orders, I would never bother to help you clean up the mess. You are also a doctor, I don't know why your teacher didn't tell you that the doctor deliberately hurt people and innocent people and died without redemption, how did you ask me in such a tone now? You don't feel a little guilty in your heart? I have never negotiated with you, you should understand why, and what does the antidote I have worked so hard to make have to do with you!"

She finished speaking aloud excitedly, her chest heaved violently twice, and she slammed the door and left without looking back.

The sparse birdsong outside the window disturbed people's minds like the chaotic sound of cicadas in summer, and Si Yan's dark eyes stared at the chair she had pushed away, and drank the tea.

*

Today, the little princess had lunch in the Agarwood Palace, jumping up and down happily, but before she could jump around the house, she waited for Sheng Yunyi's hand holding the medicine bowl.

Sheng Yunyi called the two palace maids to hold down the child, pinched her nose and poured half a bowl of medicine hard, put the jade bowl down, and raised her sleeves to let the palace maid let go. Chu Ai coughed twice aggrievedly, glanced at his face, picked up the small bowl and drank it clean.

Sheng Yunyi said: "If you are like this in the morning again, don't blame me for personally carrying you here every day, you are willing to come anyway." ”

Chu Wei rolled his eyes, and the little oily hand that had just grabbed the pine nut was on his court clothes, and said obediently while wiping it:

"Brother, don't be angry, Yunyun will definitely drink the medicine next time, in fact, the court sentenced my sister to stuff a piece of scorched licorice in my mouth every time, so it is not as bitter as before. But I have to drink medicine every day, and today I suddenly feel so troublesome, so I ......"

Sheng Yunyi gently pressed Chu Hao's waist with his knee, and the child immediately let go of the itch. He took off his court robe with one hand and threw it on the desk, picked up a piece of brocade with the other, wrapped his two small hands together, and asked:

"What else?"

"I shouldn't have smashed the bottle, I shouldn't have run around with it, I shouldn't have hit the curtain with it. ”

Sheng Yunyi pushed Chu Hao to Xiyin, who had just arrived: "Take her back." Good life looks, don't make the Jade Palace live like a little madman. ”

Before Chu Wei could pout, she was taken away by Xiyin, who was skilled in apologizing, and she turned her head when she was about to go out of the curtain, her eyes full of reluctance.

Sheng Yunyi's eyebrows softened, and he asked with a smile: "What did you write today?"

Xiyin turned around and replied, "Since the last time Lord Su wrote some words to the princess, the princess asked her to write a few words every time...... Master Su was tired today, so he casually asked the princess if she could write a paragraph of the twenty-four poems, and the princess wrote two paragraphs, "Commissioned Song" and "Reality". ”

After all the palace people went down, a cold and vigorous figure appeared indoors.

Sheng Yunyi sat behind the desk, his eyes were as cold as night, and he threw a hard hand in his hand to the person in front of him after a while.

"Sue the governor of Lizhou, the Yan family went south to let him keep more heart, how to deal with the Yue Domain, let him weigh it himself. ”

Ji Wei received the order, and there was another hesitation on his face.

Sheng Yunyi said: "Say." ”

Ji Wei said: "Your Majesty knows that Master Su is involved in the theft of the medicine store, why did you let her go, and let her be in charge of Her Royal Highness the Princess......'s condition? I think her identity is different, so I don't leave her for the time being?"

He listened to all the words of the court judgment on that day, saying that the Su court sentence had nothing to do with Liang Guo's secret guards who entered the palace to steal medicine and put down more than a dozen Yu Linwei, I am afraid that he was deceiving himself. According to today's temperament, if he doesn't say it, most likely there are more ruthless tricks waiting in the future.

Sheng Yunyi didn't want to explain, but tapped the pattern on the desk and said, "Ji Wei, have you seen how much I think about the word identity?"

The fingers in his sleeves seemed to rub against something, and a shallow halo came through his fingers, like the light of a lake on a spring day.

Ji Wei was stunned for a moment, and said boldly: "But because Su Huihui is a ...... of the Northern Dynasty"

Sheng Yunyi was noncommittal about what he had hidden, and was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "More than ten years ago, I was sent by the first emperor to the Lu family army for training, General Lu was in the prime of life at the time, and if I did not meet his requirements, he did everything he could to punish him, Xuan Ze interceded for me, and was also tied up outside the camp. However, the first time I was taken to the battlefield, the general blocked a knife for me, and since then my body has been defeated, and in the thirty-second year of service, it is even more difficult to get out of bed. ”

Ji Wei didn't dare to interject in this dusty past. The noble Lu family after thirty-two years is just a legend of the past, and no one will look back at how many battles they have won, and no one will mention the title of General Zhenguo again. The word rebellion is like a thousand stones, weighing heavily on the head of the bustling city.

But what does it mean to mention the Lu family at this time?

"When I was in prison, I swore in front of the sickbed of the first emperor that if the Lu family had a blood relative alive, I would not touch them in this life. ”

Ji Wei was stunned.

Besides, apart from the princess who changed her surname, where are the rest of the Lu family's relatives and deceased people? He quickly turned over the big clans of the Qi country and the Lu family in his mind, and the Lu family was thin, and at that time, he razed the three clans, and it seemed that he really couldn't find a blood relative.

At that time, he swore that he should have deliberately disobeyed the will of the first emperor, and he wanted to see that the first emperor looked a little guilty and unable to reprimand.

Sheng Yunyi said: "Does the commander have other important matters?"

Ji Wei's ability to adapt to changes is extremely strong, bowed down, and disappeared into the hall in an instant.

In the dormitory, because the princess moved to burn the cold incense, it curled into the nose. Sheng Yunyi lowered his head according to his eyebrows, but the pen in his hand stopped unexpectedly.

Just now, there were a few more cursive words on the paper unconsciously in the middle of the conversation. His snow-white cuffs moved slightly, and several crystals were warmed by his fingers, and the smooth and round touch pressed against his skin, giving birth to a trace of comfortable coolness.

He didn't remove the page after all, but dipped it in light ink and continued to take the two lines.

…… The power is to the time, and the sound is to the Qiang.

It seems that the past has returned, like a hidden bandit.
