Chapter 281: Night Encounter in the Imperial City

Xiao Ning got down from the couch and asked lightly, "Which doctor is from Renshantang?" ”

The palace man looked at Xiao Ning and was puzzled for a while, he didn't know why he was so interested in Renshantang, but he saw that his mood suddenly improved, and his spirit was also lifted a lot.

After thinking about it for a while, he replied respectfully: "It's a doctor surnamed Chen, who came to the palace to participate in a consultation many years ago. ”

Xiao Ning frowned between his eyebrows and gently put down the booklet.

The palace man then said: "That Doctor Chen also brought a little apprentice, who is only sixteen or seventeen years old. "It is said to be his closed little disciple."

Hearing this, Xiao Ning's face suddenly changed!

"Sixteen or seventeen years old, closed little disciple?"

"Yes."

"How's it going?"

This sentence made the palace people standing below fall into the fog again, what does the appearance of a doctor from the people have to do with the consultation?

gave the palace people a thousand dares and didn't dare to question it, so they had to answer honestly: "I haven't seen it yet." “

Xiao Ning's love situation that had just improved became bored for a while, and he waved his hand to let the palace people go down, but this time he didn't have the heart to rest

In a corner of the Tai Hospital, the imperial doctor in the palace, who had a good relationship with Dr. Chen, was whispering.

They avoided the room full of people and chose to speak in a secluded corner of the garden.

I looked up at the sky above me, my eyes roamed over the surrounding walls, and I sighed that even the Tai Hospital was surrounded by high walls!

Looking at the pavilion where Dr. Chen and the white-haired imperial doctor were, I wondered what these two people were talking about, and I didn't know what an important thing the teacher wanted to avoid me.

Looking at the past from my point of view, I could see the expression on the teacher's face, and I could clearly see that his face was getting heavier and heavier!

I'm afraid that the emperor's illness is very tricky, although he has been mentally prepared, nothing is more intuitive when things come to an end.

We talked for half an hour. Dr. Chen came back with a sad face, and out of my surprise, he didn't say a word. He just looked at me stunned for a while, and couldn't stop shaking his head and sighing.

I pondered for a moment. stepped forward and asked, "Teacher, it's a holy illness."

"Follow me." Dr. Chen called me and led me to find a more secluded place in the corner of the hospital, not to mention that there were people here, and even the sound of birds was rarely heard.

Is there something important to explain to me?

Dr. Chen stood in front of me and sighed, "This time I came back to the palace, I really came to the wrong place." I'm so old, it's easy to say no matter what, but Xiaolin, if you come with me, "Teacher." If you have something to say, just say it, I have a plan in my heart. I looked at him calmly.

Dr. Chen shook his head: "The disease of the saint is actually not difficult to diagnose, but the hospital does not have the courage to use medicine, let alone speak directly about the condition." “

How do you say that? Sounds weird!

My heart moved, and I frowned and looked at Dr. Chen and said, "Teacher." What kind of tricky disease, the risk of medication, so I dare not use it, or do I avoid medical treatment? “

Doctor Chen lowered his voice and said, "Xiaolin, you come closer, and I will tell you what Dr. Xin told me." “

My mind went blank for a moment, and I looked at the teacher in horror. I don't know how to respond.

After the initial shock, I finally spoke, and said in an uncertain tone: "Teacher, such a secret, how could the doctor from the Tai Hospital tell you?" "Isn't this meant to?"

Doctor Chen smiled bitterly and said: "Xiaolin, I have already told you on the way here, this is the second time I have come back to the palace for consultation, and the last time I came, my senior brother was with me." "But I am the only one who leaves the palace, you must know that my senior brother's skills are far above me."

I nodded, and Dr. Chen said in a softer voice: "Me and Dr. Xin from the Tai Hospital, both of us were lucky to pick up a life in that consultation, and now that all these years have passed, life and death are fate, and I have also seen it." "If this time, we really have to suffer the same fate as my senior brother, I have nothing to say."

Dr. Chen looked at me with a complicated expression and said: "People are inherently dead, and no one can escape, this day is coming, even if you are unwilling, too many regrets, and no matter how many unfulfilled wishes, you will have to let go after all." "But Xiaolin, you could have avoided this trip." "Why the hell are you coming along, you stupid boy?!"

He said worriedly and regretfully.

I grinned and said, "In the medical hall, you have always praised me, why did you say that I was twice a day today!" I was the moment they came to the hospital to find you, and I couldn't bear to see if you were embarrassed. “

I was silent for a moment: "If I have to give a reason, there is another one, since the husband who took me in is gone, you are the first person to bandage my wounds so carefully. “

I said in a flat tone: "Actually, none of these reasons sound like reasons, in fact, the biggest reason is myself, I just thought I wanted to come here, so I came." “

I comforted the teacher softly: "If you really want to, you don't have to blame yourself and feel sorry for me, it's my own choice." ”

Early tomorrow morning, several doctors will go to meet the saint, and they will rest in the Tai Hospital tonight.

There is a good thing about the palace, the place is big and there are many rooms.

I was placed in a room with Dr. Chen and two doctors from another hospital in the city.

Those two are the same composition as our side, and they are also teachers and disciples.

Listening to the meaning of the eunuch who passed the word, only a few people could enter the Hanyuan Hall to meet the emperor.

The little disciples like us on both sides of the world can only do to assist the teacher after the consultation, and by the way, they also have to take care of the teacher's body.

At night, the hospital changed its previous atmosphere and finally reached the most peaceful time of the day.

Most of the doctors who had been placed in the rooms were also resting.

It's just that there are still many people who still have lights on in their rooms, and they are all worried about tomorrow's consultation.

It is said that the emperor has been awake several times since he fell ill, and there are palace people who have suffered when he returns.

There are also several imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital who have been ordered to be imprisoned by the Holy Decree, and if there is no good opportunity, even if they don't die, they will have to sit through the prison.

I sorted out the contents of the medicine box that Dr. Chen brought with me when I entered the palace under the lamp.

Speaking of which, the Tai Hospital in the palace has everything, even the medicine warehouse is the most complete, and there are all kinds of rare medicinal materials, so most of the things we bring are not needed.

But the set of silver needles that Dr. Chen was accustomed to was indispensable, as well as the medical books he handed me over.

I'll clean up some of the contents of the medicine box, and he'll carry the rest on his own when he faces the saint tomorrow.

I'm like this, I don't have the qualifications to enter the main hall, all I can do is to wait for news in the Tai Hospital

The Tai Hospital is close to the Hanyuan Hall to the east, and it is not allowed to move around at will, especially at night.

To the west, there is a large garden in the palace, and the scenery is beautiful and quiet.

By the time I was done, the other three people in the room were asleep, but I was so preoccupied that I couldn't sleep.

Walking around the courtyard with my head bowed in contemplation, I walked around the flower bed and unconsciously walked to the side gate of the Tai Hospital near the garden.

When I realized that I had gone a little too far, I realized that my vision at night was not as good as during the day, and I couldn't find my way back for a while.

Returning to the side door I just saw, I suddenly had a thought, if what Dr. Chen explained would come true, the worst plan for me to go this time may be to have no return.

The moonlight was just right, and I could hear the wind through the door, and if I heard the leaves of the woods being blown by the wind, the door was like a magical place, beckoning me to open it.

With a heart, I walked briskly, and the door was a little rusty, maybe it hadn't been opened for a long time.

The moment I opened the door, I saw the forest as I had expected, the moonlight shining through the cracks in the trees, and not far away was the lake I had seen on the road today.

Walking through the woods, I looked around cautiously, and there was no one around, and I wandered alone on the path.

The palace at night is too different from the day, the night is hazy with the surrounding scenery, the dark shadow of the palace in the distance looks a little terrifying, but the lake with sparkling water under the moonlight not far away, the sparkling lake wrinkled by the wind, and the pleasant smell of humidity and coolness in the air all make my mood relax at once.

I walked slowly to the path by the lake, picked a rockery by the flowers, sat down and blew the wind, and from time to time raised my head to look at the dark blue sky.

The most beautiful scenes will always be disturbed by uninvited guests, and not long after, I suddenly heard a sound from the road through the woods.

I was shocked, and suddenly realized that I was afraid that it was the guards patrolling the palace at night, and I couldn't tell if I ran into it!

Seeing that the situation was not good, I immediately made a decision, walked a few steps quickly, hid in a hole in the rockery, and thought about waiting for them to pass!

Listening closely, it didn't seem to be the night watchman in the palace, and the footsteps sounded a little messy compared to the well-trained guards.

I tried to shrink my body into the cave while thinking that it was so late who would have walked in the palace if it weren't for the guards.

No matter who comes, it's best not to let them find out that I'm right.

In the distance, the team passed by the edge of the woods, and a deep voice sounded: "Next to Xiaoyingzhou?" ”

My body shook, my eyes widened, and I suddenly realized who it was.

Suddenly my spirit tensed, and I clenched my fists and waited for the group to pass.

The night was quiet, and he was about to go back to the place where he lived, but he just happened to pass by this lake.

The footsteps paused for a moment, then sounded again, and at last, faded away on the path.

It wasn't until I couldn't hear the footsteps of the group anymore that I was relieved to get out of the rockery.

Gently brushing the dust off my body, I walked back to the lake where I had just sat down.

In the next second, a hand reached out from behind my back, swift as lightning to cover my exclamation that I was about to exit!
