Chapter 11: The Barefoot Doctor
The palace people rolled quickly, Xu Lian felt that the word "roll" should also include herself, turned around and wanted to leave but was pulled by a hand, her wrist hurt, no matter how angry he was, in the end his strength was weak in the illness, Xu Lian could break free if he wanted to break free, but he didn't dare to stimulate him anymore when he just got into trouble, and let him hold it.

The prince's face was gloomy and frightening, and every word almost came out between his teeth: "Do you know what you are doing?" β
I'm all kissed, I'm still afraid that you will sue me?
Xu Lian glared back very fearlessly, but her momentum was too weak, and she was stared at after a while, and her heart was weak and her legs and stomach were weak, but she still tried to make a calm appearance, and looked into his angry eyes: "Before the concubine left the palace, Niangniang asked the concubine, if you are willing to come here to serve the palace?" Does Your Highness think the concubine is willing? β
The strength on her wrist decreased by a point, Xu Lian felt it, and continued to ask herself: "What if the concubine is unwilling?" It is the duty of concubines to serve His Royal Highness. After all, the concubines are still a little afraid, but now they are not afraid, just the epidemic, what is there to be afraid of? β
"You must wonder, where did the concubine get the confidence to speak out here? In fact, the concubines have no confidence, but they are just a little unwilling. I just wonder if His Highness is willing? β
The prince let go of her wrist and looked at her carefully, as if he had never known her, but Xu Lian smiled easily: "The concubine boldly offended herself is a crime that deserves death, before His Royal Highness punishes her, please also promise to make a bet with the concubine, if the concubine has not been sick by you, then you must also believe that this disease will be cured one day." β
No matter what kind of honor they have enjoyed, they are just ordinary people in the face of birth, old age, sickness and death, they will be painful, they will be weak, and they will feel hopeless under the lack of medicine and stone again and again. She didn't want to hear his entrustment as if she had confessed his last words, she wanted to hang the ivy leaf outside his window, unwilling or guilty, it was better to have ups and downs than no waves.
After a long time, the prince regained his expression of joy and anger, and said lightly: "Okay, Lone will make this bet with you." β
After returning to the house, Xu Lian poured a large bowl of anti-epidemic medicine, did dozens of sit-ups, sweated, took a hot bath and fell asleep. The next day, he woke up tremblingly and called Imperial Doctor Xu to check his pulse, but the result was unharmed.
It seems that she is indeed an unbeatable Xiaoqiang.
After that, Xu Lian went over every day, and did not go forward, stood aside and asked the imperial doctor a few words, and left after a circle in front of him, to show that he was still healthy.
The prince was lying on the bed and was diagnosed by the imperial doctor with acupuncture, and the hand of the palace man took the medicine bowl and drank it, without even taking his eyes to Xu Lian to sweep it.
Since that day, the two have not spoken a word.
That's it, Xu Lian noticed that the porridge he drank was still the same thing she had let Chun Tao survive, so she simply sent Chun Tao to the dining room to help cook for a few days, and make porridge for him in more tricks.
It dragged on for half a month like this, the prince's illness did not occur in a particularly critical situation, but there was no obvious improvement, Xu Lian was also at a loss, even if the gambling contract was effective, it could only arouse the prince's heart, and it dragged on for a while, after all, the treatment of this kind of thing, mentality and medicine accounted for fifty each, but in the final analysis, medicine and medicine are the key to curing the disease, and the medicine stone has been useless, and no matter how good the attitude is, it will not last long.
Fortunately, the turning point finally appeared when the first cicada chirped in the palace.
Shen Dian found a folk doctor and brought it to Xu Lian, saying that he had cured people with similar symptoms to the prince, and came here to treat the prince.
Xu Lian looked the doctor up and down, and her heart beat a drum.
It is said that the folk doctors have lifted him a little, the old man who is about sixty or seventy years old, slightly bent over, the gray gown on the upper body is not neatly cut, the trousers are rolled up high and low, and the dark face is full of wrinkles and ravines.
Shen Di knew Xu Lian's concerns, the person was found by him by trekking through mountains and rivers, and he was worried that His Royal Highness's illness would not be delayed if he brought it in if he was not dressed neatly, so he anxiously persuaded him: "Niangniang, don't worry, there are a few people in Fangtou Village where this person is located have been cured, and the villain has seen it himself, so he brought the person, let him try it, even if he can't cure it, there will be no side trouble." β
This is to say that this barefoot doctor's medical skills cannot be guaranteed, after all, Hua Tuo does not have a 100% success rate, and if he can cure others, he may not be able to cure the prince, but the prince is dragging it out like this now, and people are about to collapse, so it is better to let him try, maybe it is an unexpected joy if he really has the ability.
The fork next to it means that the three generations of people have been found out, and there will not be any assassin or spy to harm the prince's life.
The only one who can be the master in the palace is Xu Lian, she thinks that Shen Di is quite important to the prince on weekdays, and he is half a confidant, so he will not harm the prince, and if he is really a harboring evil intention, he is only waiting for the prince to be sick to death in the dark, and he is not used to cause trouble for himself at all.
Thinking like this, Xu Lian asked a few words about her surname and family situation.
The old man answered them one by one, but his accent was slightly heavy, and his tongue was a little curled, Xu Lian couldn't hear it clearly, but Shen Di explained a few words as a translator on the side.
The old man's surname is Zheng, the family has a wife and three children, the eldest son has given birth to a son, the young son has not yet married, the epidemic is destroyed by the flood of the home of the people from other villages to their village to bring over, before he can figure out how to treat it, his wife passed the illness and died, the eldest grandson was also infected by the grandmother, it is going to be bad, Zheng Lao Zhang's rough medical science, but also know the medicinal materials, on weekdays, the villagers have a headache and brain fever called him to look at each other.
As the saying goes, the youngest son and the eldest grandson, the lifeblood of the old man, seeing that the eldest grandson is going to die, Zheng Laozhang is so anxious that he can't do it, and his wife's funeral is not enough to take care of it carefully, so he goes up the mountain to collect medicine, and all the medicinal materials that can be stained on the top are taken home with some of them, and they are boiled together in the pot for the grandson to eat, and the children of the poor families are strong, and the children of the poor families are strong, and the children of the poor families are strong, and the children's fever is also gone, and they don't vomit, and they don't say anything that can be eaten, and they are all well in a few days, and they get off the bed and jump vigorously, and they also quarrel with Zheng Laozhang to eat braised pork.
The villagers also had this disease, but they couldn't, so they were looking for a remote house, and their relatives carried them over to die. Later, I learned that Mr. Zheng had a way to cure it, so he hurriedly looked for it, and Mr. Zheng did not hide his selfishness, but told people the list of medicines from memory, and asked people to go to the mountains to pick them, because the dosage was not accurate, and the efficacy of the medicine was different.
Shen Huang was originally taking care of the disaster relief affairs for the prince, and it was also a headache for the sick victims to wander around and harm people in other villages and places.
The old man was reluctant at first, he knew in his heart that his medical skills were a half-bottle of dang, and the villagers would just show some poor people, and the dead horse was treated as a live horse doctor, and he was cured of a thousand thanks, and no one blamed him for not being cured, but Shen Dian knew that his identity was extraordinary when he looked at his outfit, and the person who needed to be diagnosed and treated must be an unusual nobleman, afraid of causing trouble, so he hurriedly refused to say bluntly that he had no such ability, so that Shen Dian could find another master.
This coincidence of curing the disease Zheng Lao Gong had a bit of a mind to show off his skills, no one said, the family and the villagers only thought that he really had this ability, and he won a lot of respect, that is, the village chief of Lizheng also respected him for three points, Shen Di couldn't find out about the twists and turns, only when Zheng Lao Zhang didn't dare to cause trouble, he lowered his body and pleaded with Corporal Lixian again and again, so he simply took the guards and took people away directly.
When he arrived at the palace and coaxed him with gold and silver, Mr. Zheng was voluntarily comed, and his eyes were straight when he saw the fairyland-like carved beams and paintings of the palace, and then he was stunned by the heavy gold ingots in his hand.
Xu Lian asked and planned to let him try, but the ugly things that should be said still had to be said, in fact, she was most annoyed by this kind of thing, and now she is begging someone to save her life, and she looks like she is persecuting, anyway, she can't say anything like "can't cure Your Highness, this palace wants your whole family to be buried with you", and said as much as possible from an equal perspective: "Don't panic, old man, no one will punish you if you can't be cured, but if Your Highness has something under you, this palace just wants to protect you and has no way." β
As soon as Mr. Zheng heard this, he knew that the noble lord in front of him was not bluffing him, thinking of the person who had drunk the medicine he had prepared and still left, the courage to be rich and noble disappeared in an instant, and he couldn't stand up and threw himself at Xu Lian's feet, and the gold and silver horns in his coat rolled to the ground, and he knocked his head on it and smashed out blood: "The noble man spares his life, the old man doesn't have this ability, and this disease can't be cured." "I told the ins and outs while knocking.
Shen Di was shocked when he heard this, and scolded the old man in his heart for not telling the truth and tired himself, and he couldn't stand it now, knelt down and kowtowed with him, his actions were not as ruthless as the old man, and he also pleaded guilty one after another, saying that he didn't know anyone, and almost hurt His Royal Highness.
After making such a fuss, Xu Lian sighed helplessly, and waved her hand to let the eunuch support the two kowtowers.
She almost planned to let this barefoot doctor in, such a big oolong, can't she be reliable?
The two little eunuchs helped people up one by one, Zheng Lao Zhang's uncle didn't understand the rules, he was afraid of being dragged down and cut directly, he was crying for himself, and he was crying that no one took care of the grandson at home, and the movement was a little loud, waking up the sleeping prince, and the prince called someone to ask about the situation and asked Chen Bao to go and pass a message to Xu Lian.
Xu Lian was worried, and when she saw Chen Bao knowing that he was the face of the prince, she had the heart to ask him.
Chen Bao said to Xu Lian: "Your Highness has an order, and it is rumored that this old man will see it." β
