Xu Miaoyi hugged Fat Chi back to her parents' house, outside the Wei State Mansion, the two brothers greeted Yan Wang and his wife in the car, just got out of the car, Xu Zengshou took Fat Chi away, Fat Chi and the little uncle are very familiar, he just woke up and grinned toothless as soon as he saw Xu Zengshou.

Zhu Di easily saw his son's smile, and quickly stretched out his head to look at the swaddling clothes, but when he saw the face of a strange man, he didn't care that it was his own father, and he was immediately frightened and cried. In the end, it was the nurse who used a trick to feed the milk ** to coax it.

Xu Miaoyi saw Zhu Di's depressed appearance and comforted: "It's good to be familiar, and there will be a long time in the future." ”

In fact, Xu Miaoyi was not in a good mood at this time: this time only two brothers greeted her, and her father did not appear. The father misses her eldest daughter, and he must be very happy to know that he has become a grandfather last night. Besides, although his father has a high status, he has been cautious all his life, abiding by the courtesies of the monarch and ministers, and never daring to offend Lei Chi, how can he be rude? It is reasonable for my father to come out to greet him, unless he ......

Xu Da was waiting in the study, it was already March, the window of the study was wide open, and the morning sun was about to come in and sit on the Luohan bed

Xu Da stared at the sleeping fat blazing in the big red swaddling clothes, and his eyes were reluctant to blink.

Xu Miaoyi snuggled up to Xu Da, her father's gray face was in stark contrast to her chubby and vibrant face, Xu Miaoyi had been a doctor and had seen countless patients, she knew what this meant, the smile on her face was still the same, but her heart was getting colder and colder: Zhu Di and his brother did not deliberately lie to themselves, because his father was a strong person, and he did not allow himself to have a moment of weakness in front of his son-in-law and sons, so he kept holding on...... Fooled everyone.

Fat Chi woke up, and when he saw his grandfather with gray hair, he was even more afraid, waving his fat hands, staring at his fat legs and crying, Xu Dale kissed Fat Chi on the cheek, "The cry is loud, you have to open the roof quickly, you are a strong child." Here you go, hurry up and coax him, this cry is strange and painful. ”

"He eats and sleeps on weekdays, sleeps and eats, and rarely cries, which may be urine." Xu Miaoyi opened the swaddling clothes, a peculiar smell dispersed, Xu Miaoyi hurriedly handed the swaddling clothes to Zhu Di, "Report to the nurse to wash it, change into clean clothes, and then go to the garden with it, he likes to see the flowers outside red and willow green, you play with him a few more times, and you will slowly get acquainted." ”

sent her husband away, only the father and daughter were left in the study, Xu Miaoyi closed the window, "My father is injured, I can't blow the wind, and those maids who serve are really not careful." ”

Xu Da said: "I'm fine, just cultivate for a few days." ”

Without anyone else, Xu Miaoyi didn't have to save face for her father, she was distressed and asked angrily: "You deceived others, but you can't fool me, show me the wound." ”

Xu Da stiffened and said, "It's okay, you're thinking too much." ”

Xu Miaoyi's face was cold, "Father, if you do this again, I will go back to Yanwang's Mansion with Fat Chi." It's so easy for our father and daughter to open up with each other, and now you're lying to me again, it's really boring. ”

Xu Da hesitated for a moment and sighed: "It's okay, you have studied medicine, help your father take a look." ”

Xu Da lay on the Luohan bed, Xu Miaoyi washed her hands, unbuttoned her father's shirt, exposed her back, cut the gauze wrapped around her waist, cleaned up the ointment applied to the wound, and couldn't help but gasp.

My father was wounded in the spine, and the wound was deep enough to see the bones!

In fact, Xu Miaoyi has been a military doctor for two years, and she has seen many more serious wounds than this, she has thousands of severed limbs when she lifts a sharp axe, and she can swallow food against the rotten intestines and stomachs all over the ground, but when she saw her father's back sores, she was so frightened that she took two steps back.

Xu Da comforted her daughter: "It doesn't matter, I don't feel much pain anymore." ”

Tears swirled in her eyes, Xu Miaoyi's chin trembled slightly, her elbows bent to wipe away her tears, and she used all her strength to get back to her previous state, check the wound, apply medicine and bandage, dress her father, cover it with a thin quilt, and advise: "Try to sleep on your stomach in the future, don't involve wounds, don't sit for a long time, and don't stand for a long time." Don't ride a horse, don't wield a sword, don't wear armor, don't—"

"Miaoyi." Xu Da interrupted his daughter, "The imperial doctor who accompanied the army also said the same, but at that time, the battle situation was tight, and I was afraid of shaking the morale of the army, so I forced it to be kept secret, and the army thought that I was fine." ”

Xu Miaoyi asked: "Then the emperor should know about it, and let you drink if he knows?" It's—"

Seeing that his daughter was about to lose his temper, Xu Da hurriedly said: "The emperor doesn't know, the imperial doctor of the army promised me that he could only secretly play to the emperor after triumph." You can rest assured that although the illness was concealed, the doctor was the right medicine and took care of him day and night, and there was no negligence. ”

Xu Miaoyi was restless, "This disease needs to be recuperated!" It can't be cured by taking it internally and applying it externally! You've all injured your spine, and you're still fighting on horseback, so you're dying! It's summer soon, and back sores are harder to heal, so you're likely to just...... Anyway, you will do what I say in the future, and you can't make a half-point difference! ”

"No!" Xu Daqiang sat up, with severe pain in his waist, and cold sweat fell like rain, Xu Miaoyi hurriedly helped her father to lie on her side, and stuffed a soft pillow behind her back.

After a period of pain, Xu Da said slowly: "I am a general, and the best result for a general is to die on the battlefield, instead of lying on the bed like a waste waiting to die, can't ride a horse, can't dance a sword, can't sit, can't stand, so what am I?" Where is my dignity? I've been fighting all my life, not to be a waste! ”

Xu Miaoyi and her father were both straight-tempered, and immediately retorted: "If as my father said, all the disabled people in this world are not worthy of life, should they all die?" I worked as a military doctor in the Northern Expeditionary Army for two years, cutting down thousands of rancid wounded hands and legs, they sacrificed so much for the country, and they were lucky to save their lives, you have always treated these people well, fought for all kinds of subsidies for them, and helped them regain the value of their lives, but what you think about now, in fact, I hope they all die! I really didn't expect you to be such a hypocritical and ruthless general! ”

Xu Da said: "No! They are different from me, they are mostly the pillars of the family, if they die, the orphans and widows have a hard life, they are alive, they still have the court to receive, and their families can be exempted from taxes and servitude. And I'm ...... You are all old, with the hereditary title of Duke of Wei and the emperor's favor, you will all live well. ”

Xu Miaoyi said: "But people don't live just for food and clothing, the life and health of their families are more important." ”

Xu Da shook his head slowly, "No, for us, more things are different. Actually, you don't have to lie to me, the imperial doctor has already told me, the injury has reached this point, and he can't recuperate in time, the consequences are very serious, the worst is to die quickly, and the best result is nothing more than to survive a year, in the future, he will lose consciousness from the waist down, incontinent, like a little baby, he needs to change diapers, and then the upper body slowly shrinks, dries up, and becomes a walking corpse that can only gasp——"

"No, it won't!" Xu Miaoyi felt that she was too excited, and after calming down for a while, she comforted her father softly, "You will get the best treatment and care, no one will dislike you, laugh at you, your life's achievements, even after a thousand years, are still admired by the world." Father, our father and daughter have been missing for ten years, it doesn't matter, I will always be by your side in the future to make up for the lost time. And Chi'er, your grandson, don't you want to see him grow up, get married, and have children? ”

At the mention of his grandson, Xu Da's eyes lit up, "Of course I thought about it, but I just ...... I hope that when he remembers his grandfather in the future, he will be the victorious general in the history books and the founder of the Ming Dynasty, rather than a rancid and sluggish old man paralyzed in bed. ”

"Miaoyi, my self-esteem does not allow me to live. Father wants to be your supporter, not your burden, and now that you are also a mother, you should understand your father's heart. In the future, for the sake of Chi'er and your children, you will make the same choice as your father. ”

Xu Miaoyi cried: "I don't understand! All I know is that you have the heart to leave me behind again for the sake of your own selfishness. It's easy to regain the father-daughter relationship, you just don't want it if you say no! I despise you! You're a coward! ”

"Miaoyi, Miaoyi." Xu Da stretched out his rough hand and wiped away his daughter's tears, "I now understand why Chang Yuchun left so suddenly five years ago." ”

Xu Miaoyi was stunned, "King Kaiping often meets spring?" He...... He died of illness in Liuhechuan that year, and was injured in ......"

Xu Miaoyi couldn't bear to continue. Chang Yuchun was only forty years old when he died, and he was the youngest of the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty, but the first general to die.

Xu Da said lightly: "Chang Yuchun, like me, was injured in his back and died of back sores. At that time, the military newspaper said that Chang Yuchun was fine after being injured and continued to march and fight, and no one expected that he would die. I was very sad at the time, I believed this statement, and I didn't notice that the emperor didn't severely punish the imperial doctors and military doctors who accompanied the army, in fact, ...... Chang Yuchun should have been seriously injured, but he has been concealing his illness, fighting with injuries, and winning a big victory in one go. ”

Xu Miaoyi was shocked, what his father said made sense, Wang Ning was under Chang Yuchun's tent at that time, he suspected Chang Yuchun's death, and even thought about asking Xu Miaoyi to open the coffin for an autopsy, but at that time Xu Miaoyi thought that Wang Ning was involved in the dispute between the East Palace, and the palace fight between the crown princess Chang and the side concubine Lu, so she immediately dispelled Wang Ning's thoughts and ordered him to move out of the Kaiping Palace, not to fall into the palace and find it difficult to get out.

Now think about it carefully, Chang Yuchun is a general, and it is an important Northern Expedition, and the Lu family cannot and does not have the ability to use subordinate means to harm Chang Yuchun. The only reasonable explanation is what his father Xu Da speculated: In fact, Chang Yuchun was seriously injured, and in order to avoid shaking the morale of the army, he kept the secret report and fought strongly, and only the emperor knew the truth.

Xu Da sighed: "According to the emperor's temper, the imperial doctor of the army should be severely punished, exiled at the lightest, and killed with a cane at the worst, but that time it was just a reduction in duties and punishment." When I came back from the Northern Expedition this time, I originally thought that I would die of illness on the way back from triumph like Chang Yuchun, but God had mercy and let me see my grandson alive, and I was already very satisfied. Miaoyi, since I can't return the horse leather shroud, then I'd rather die standing than lie down and live. 166 Reading Network
