The next day, Li Hui entered the palace in the name of greeting Queen Du, and began to investigate the matter of King Huai with Princess Changning. Sure enough, the pulse case seen in the Imperial Doctor's Office was recorded in great detail and preserved extremely completely, and the pulse was almost never broken for more than ten years. The imperial physician who followed them also said that according to the pulse case, King Huai was cold and weakened for a few days and died of an emergency. There is nothing missing in the pulse case and prescription, but the emergency is menacing, and the disease is terminal.

Li Hui and Princess Changning glanced at each other, and silently wrote down the pulse cases of King Huai for dozens of days before his death. Of course, they would not easily believe the judgment of a low-level imperial doctor, maybe the doctor in charge back then had indeed misdiagnosed? Or maybe this person is not good at learning and can't see the strangeness?

"Apart from us, over the years, have anyone else borrowed the case of Uncle Huai's uncle?" Before leaving, Li Hui suddenly asked again. He wanted to know who else was interested in the cause of King Huai's illness. If it is the eldest princess of Anxing, it means that she is still trying her best to find the truth and verify her suspicions; If it was someone else, maybe this was one of the culprits who bewitched the eldest princess of An Xing, or maybe it was another person who could form an alliance who was exploring the cause of Yiqiē.

The imperial physician who guarded the case is already dying, and it is said that he has been here for more than 30 years. He didn't seem to expect the King of Xin'an County to ask such a question, he couldn't react for a while, stroked his silver long beard, his cloudy eyes turned, pretended to remember for a moment, and said: "I still remember that when His Royal Highness King Huai just died of illness, Princess Anxing would come over to see his pulse almost every day, and she also studied medicine for a while. After that, no one came. ”

"Oh?" Li Hui narrowed his eyes, as if smiling, "Is this true?" It seems that the Imperial Doctor is indeed too old to remember. I even forgot all about what I had done. Only by asking so coldly can you get the most authentic response from the other party. The imperial doctor obviously accepted a bribe from someone, and quietly let people see the pulse.

"Brother is so polite, he is clearly deceiving us!! What a daring! It is better for Brother Ah to take him to Dali Temple immediately and carefully interrogate him. Princess Changning raised her eyebrows slightly, "Any punishment can be done, you have to pry his mouth open!" ”

The old lady quietly raised her eyes, looked at the noble lord in front of her, who was not angry and arrogant, and couldn't help but tremble, and immediately shouted: "Old decay...... I remember!! ”

He stretched his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat from the corners of his forehead, and said with a smile: "The old age is too old, and many things are indeed not clear to remember, I hope that the lord and the king will not blame." It was not easy for Fang to think of one thing again, except for the eldest princess of An Xing, a few years ago...... Cheng Juma also came to read the pulse case. Hehe, Xu is the eldest princess of Anxing forgot for a while, so I asked him to take a look again. The old man promises that there will be no one else but them! ”

"Uncle Cheng?" Li Hui furrowed his eyebrows, "How many years did he come here?" Think before you talk back! "The relationship between Cheng Qing and Princess An Xing is really too strange. Since there is no love between men and women, and there is no jealousy, it is indeed impossible to tell each other such a deeply hidden secret. But after all, they are pillow people, and it is not surprising that Cheng Qing found her reverse scales. Thinking about it carefully, what role did the Cheng family play in the matter of Princess Anxing? Help her with all your might? Watching from the sidelines? Or-

"Yes...... Be...... Four or five years ago!! The old lady doctor hurriedly said, "The old man remembers, on the eve of His Royal Highness King Pu's return to Beijing!" At that time, Empress Wende was seriously ill, and the people in Beijing were panicked...... When Cheng Juma came over, the old man thought that he wanted to see the pulse of Empress Wende...... Who knew that what he was looking for was the pulse case of His Royal Highness King Huai......"

"What?" Princess Changning's gaze suddenly sank, "This case, is it possible that anyone who wants to see it can see it?!" The Imperial Doctor's Department keeps the pulse cases in the palace in previous years, just for collection, but you accept money without authorization, and let anyone want to see it?! It's a bastard! ”

The imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Department are mainly responsible for teaching students, or accepting invitations from the noble families of Jingchu, waiting for leisure to enter the palace for diagnosis and treatment. The province of Dianzhong has set up a special pharmacy bureau, which is responsible for the affairs of the imperial medicine and the diagnosis of the prescription. The rank of these imperial doctors is far higher than that of the people in the Imperial Doctor's Department, and their medical skills are also extremely outstanding.

However, many of the pulse cases in the palace in previous years will be moved to the Imperial Medical Department for preservation. After all, Shang Pharmacy has limited manpower and a limited number of locations. Of course, the case of His Majesty the Emperor is guarded by a special person, and no one dares to look at it, otherwise he will definitely end up with the same fate as those who plot against him. As for the veins of Her Royal Highness the Queen, the concubines of the harem, and the kings of the clans, they may not be able to guard them so strictly. Therefore, it is very likely that this old lady doctor has received a lot of bribes by relying on this.

"How many people have seen these cases? Will anyone modify it? Li Hui coldly threatened, "If you don't tell the truth, then go to the prison of Dali Temple!" "If there is a problem with King Huai's pulse case, other pulse cases may not be problematic. When the time comes, if you want to check something else, you will most likely never find it again!

The old lady was so frightened that she fell to her knees: "No one will change it!" The old decay can already memorize all the pulses! Guaranteed that no one has ever modified it...... ...... year At that time, the eldest princess of Anxing once said that there was a mistake in the pulse case, but it was later confirmed that it was correct, and the old man specially wrote it down, and the pulse case of His Royal Highness King Huai will definitely not be wrong! ”

Hearing this, Princess Changning continued: "In this case, you can go with us." "If there is a person who claims to be able to memorize all the pulses, of course it is more reliable than the ones they have memorized in a scattered manner. As for the verification of these pulse cases, naturally they can't alarm those imperial doctors in the Shang Pharmacy. Fortunately, there were not only imperial doctors and imperial doctors who treated Queen Du, but also Buddhist doctors and Taoist doctors from the people. These ordained healers, who are either immortal or compassionate, are obviously more worthy of their trust.

After that, Princess Changning quietly locked the old lady doctor surnamed Feng in a certain courtyard. The old lady doctor worked hard, and it took two or three days to write down the pulse of the whole year when King Huai died of illness. Princess Changning secretly compared the pulse case he wrote with the original pulse case, and sure enough, it was word for word. However, although he swore in every possible way that he would never tell anyone about this matter, and that he would definitely keep it a secret, Li Hui did not let him go home.

And Princess Changning communicated with the Imperial Physician's Department again, let him go home to recuperate, and handed over his original mission to guard the pulse case to his son. After hearing this, Old Lady Feng was overjoyed, feeling that this idle errand was not cheaper than outsiders. He flattered and thanked Li Hui and Princess Changning in every way, and hurriedly promised to live in King Pu's mansion for the time being, and then go to Princess Changning's mansion in the future to help raise the medical girl.

Then, the two cousins carried the old lady and the pulse case to the Anren Palace. Because of their request, Empress Du deliberately left several Buddhist and Taoist doctors in the side hall and begged them to help. The monks were naturally compassionate, but it was just a gesture of effort, and they all agreed to help.

After all the Buddhist and Taoist doctors looked at the pulse case, they all believed that there were traces of the development of Huai Wang's illness, and there was nothing unusual: "This patient has been weak since he was a child, and he has been suffering from cold and sick for many years. Therefore, after he accidentally contracted the wind cold, he became more and more weak. The doctor's diagnosis was not wrong, and the prescription was correct. However, after the illness became acute, it should be that I couldn't even take the medicine, so I used acupuncture again. ”

"The healers at that time were doing their best. Even if we were to save people, it would only be a little longer. Amitabha, this is the destiny of heaven, the reincarnation of cause and effect that has long been predestined. ”

After Li Hui saluted and thanked these Taoist and Buddhist doctors, Princess Changning personally sent them out of the Anren Palace.

Looking at the Zhang mai case that almost covered the entire side hall, Li Hui glanced at the old lady Feng next to him: "The pulse case of Uncle Huai Wang back then was written by a straight chief of the Shang Pharmacy Bureau, and it should be surnamed Yao?" Now there is no imperial doctor surnamed Yao in the Shang Pharmacy, so does the old lady know where he has gone? "Maybe go and ask this Imperial Doctor Yao directly, and you can know more about the past. But it is more likely that this Yao Imperial Doctor was secretly eliminated by Princess Anxing a long time ago.

Old Lady Feng thought for a moment and said, "...... The old man remembered that he had been promoted to the imperial doctor before, and he almost became a royal doctor. Later, it seemed that he offended a concubine in the palace and was demoted to the chief doctor, and then demoted to the chief physician of the Imperial Physician Department. A few years ago, he seemed to have misdiagnosed a nobleman, and was retaliated against, and was exiled for 2,000 miles to Lingnan. ”

Shang Pharmacy has the highest status in Fengyu, and it is an imperial doctor specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of saints, and the grade is under the five grades. This can be said to be the highest official position that a doctor can hold. Under the emperor is the imperial doctor, from the six grades; And under the imperial doctor is the straight length, which is on the seventh grade; There is a doctor under the straight length, and he is under the eighth grade. The highest official position of the Taiyi Department is only from the seventh rank, the Taiyi Cheng and the medical supervisor are from the eighth grade, and the medical official is only from the ninth grade.

This Yao Imperial Doctor's medical skills are obviously good, and the pulse case he wrote when he was young can be unanimously recognized by Buddhist and Taoist doctors, and it is certainly impossible to make any mistakes such as misdiagnosis. However, he offended people who should not be offended one after another, and his rank fell again and again, and then he was exiled to Lingnan.

This qiē must have the handwriting of Princess Anxing! And with her temperament, it is very likely that this Yao Imperial Doctor was killed when he was in exile...... Moreover, his family and grandchildren may also be affected. How innocent is it to die on trumped-up charges!!

Of course, in order to find out the truth of the year, it is still necessary to send the subordinates to Lingnan to find out carefully. In addition, it should be impossible for many inconspicuous characters such as the doctor and the medicine boy who were following Imperial Doctor Yao at that time to be found and killed by Princess An Xing. And they may know part of the truth.

Old Lady Feng glanced at the young county king quietly, and suddenly coughed lightly, as if trying to attract his attention.

Li Hui followed the prestige - this old lady doctor may have been in the camp all the year round, and he has a bit of a thief's eyebrows, which is really difficult to trust. However, such characters, if used well, can also be of great help. "Do you have anything to say, old lady?"

"I don't know if the king and your lord checked the pulse case of His Royal Highness King Huai, if they think there is something wrong with it......" Old Lady Feng pondered the words, "The eldest princess of Anxing also had a big fuss for a while, and the first emperor and Empress Wende personally asked the Shang Pharmacy and the Imperial Doctor to check the pulse case and prescription, and confirmed that it was correct. Later, the imperial physician Yao was promoted to serve the imperial doctor, and there must be nothing wrong with it......"

"We just want to know why Aunt Anxing made a fuss back then." Li Hui said lightly.

Old Lady Feng raised her eyes and looked at him quickly, and hurriedly lowered her eyelids again: "The old man has memorized all the pulse cases, and he just remembered it." On the day when King Huai contracted the disease of wind and cold, it seemed that the abolished prince and the then King of Wei, now His Royal Highness King Pu, had called a doctor and left a pulse case. ”

Li Hui's eyes shrank suddenly: "The doctor they called, is it to serve the imperial or serve the imperial doctor?!" "Therefore, it is the turn of Imperial Doctor Yao, who is just a straight elder, to diagnose King Huai, who is seriously ill with wind and cold!
