After leaving the court, Cheng Zheng went to the military and political center.

"The end will be too late, please forgive the prince." I arrived in Beijing yesterday, and I was supposed to come in the evening, but due to the twists and turns that came out of the country, I have not been able to get free until now.

"It's okay," Xu Qingsong didn't blame, of course he knew about yesterday's incident, "You have worked hard all the way." ”

"The duty of the last general is not to say bitterness."

Xu Qingsong said with concern: "How is the injury on your hand?" ”

"I just arrived in Beijing yesterday, and I haven't had time to let the doctor take a closer look, and I am worried about Lord Lao." He still told the truth, and he even delayed coming back to his life, so how could he have any heart to see the injury.

When Xu Qingsong saw him say this, he knew that the injury was not light, if it was an ordinary flesh injury, Cheng Zheng would definitely say that it was okay, and instructed: "After I go back, I will find the imperial doctor in the palace for careful diagnosis and treatment." ”

"Yes."

"Jiangnan, it's all done?"

"Yes, the master and servant of the Min Mansion were personally extinguished by Jinfeng, and then set fire to it, leaving no clues."

Xu Qingsong was very satisfied: "Very good, this time the journey is difficult, you escorted the princess back safely, and you have contributed a lot." The successor to King Xiang is undecided, the emperor is interested in you, your marriage is decided, and the day of promotion is not far away. ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Is the next King Xiang finally decided? Is it to put down a presence in exchange? Cheng Zheng felt a sour feeling in his heart when he thought about it.

Xu Qingsong persuaded earnestly: "The second princess has just recognized the emperor, and the emperor wants to make up for the debt to the princess in the past twenty years. ”

Cheng Zheng naturally knew what Xu Qingsong was referring to, he opened his mouth, and finally there was no way to shirk it, and he finally had to marry Yishan. Cheng Zheng endured the pain in his heart, he knew very well his only choice: "I know what to do, I won't embarrass the emperor and the patriarch." ”

"It's good that you understand, but don't live up to the emperor's expectations of you."

"Please rest assured."

"You've had a hard time, go back and rest and wait for good news."

Cheng Zheng replied "yes" obediently. But there is bitterness in my heart that I can't say, good news? Hehe, is there more heart-wrenching good news than this?

At noon, Ming An passed on Yilin Yishan to have lunch with the emperor, and in the afternoon, Yilin sent Tong Mingshen, the judge of the Tai Hospital, and several more prestigious imperial doctors and Yishan to go to the Zhenxi Palace. A few more guards were sent to accompany him, and when he came, he went to the imperial study as usual to discuss the government with the emperor.

The sedan chair fell in front of the gate of the palace in the west of the town, and he ran impatiently to go in without waiting for the palace maid to support him, and the people guarding the door were busy kneeling down and saluting, and the princess Wan'an was read in his mouth.

Yishan was in a good mood, it turned out that it was so easy to get out of the palace, it turned out that it was so easy to see Cheng Zheng, although someone would always kneel down to him would be a little unaccustomed, but he didn't have time to pay attention to it, so he hurriedly shouted "no courtesy", and went straight inside.

The two guarding the door looked at each other, what kind of happy event did the princess have today, how could she be much more lively than before.

"Cheng Zheng, Cheng Zheng, I'm coming to see you." As soon as I entered, I shouted, but I didn't know the way, and stood in the yard looking left and right.

"Princess Wan'an." Qing Han saluted.

"Hurry up, is Cheng Zheng at home, take me to see him."

"The princess doesn't want anyone to pass on the road when she comes and goes to the house on weekdays, so why don't you even recognize the road today." Qinghan said suspiciously. It must be that he is usually in the palace and never sticks to etiquette, otherwise how can a girl talk so much.

Yishan was also puzzled, "I go back and forth to the house on weekdays?" When have I been here? ”

"......" When Qinghan was speechless, Cheng Zheng came out, his white clothes were simple and plain, and his face was elegant and cold, "Qinghan, I've seen Princess Yishan." ”

Qinghan was a little dizzy, speechless for a long time, and only said in her heart What the hell is going on, Princess Yishan? Isn't this a princess?

"This is Princess Yishan, the twin sister of Yilin. I just entered the palace yesterday, and it will be announced to the world in a few days. Cheng Zheng is a rare patient, willing to explain to a subordinate like this, presumably because he is afraid that the subordinate will be unobtrusive and cause trouble in vain.

Qinghan quickly understood: "This, the slave Qinghan has seen Princess Yishan, and the slave is ignorant and asks the princess for forgiveness." ”

"Excuse me, it turns out that you treat me as a sister, does my sister come here often?"

Qinghan still bit the word "yes" in his mouth, and Cheng Zheng took the first step to speak, "Please sit down inside the princess." Qinghan, go and prepare tea. ”

"I brought the Imperial Doctor here, let them see the wound on your hand, the Imperial Doctor is very skilled, there will definitely be a way to cure it." The two came to the main hall, and before they could sit down, they took Cheng Zheng's hand.

Cheng Zheng bowed: "Thank you, princess." ”

"Why are you suddenly polite to me, although I entered the palace and became a princess, but I won't see you, we can still talk and laugh as before."

Laughing and laughing? Is it because I have been talking and laughing with you all the way that I have been waiting for me for many years today? Cheng Zheng can only smile bitterly now.

"Come in." Yishan sat down beside Cheng Zheng and waited for the imperial doctor to slowly diagnose and treat.

Untie the white veil on Cheng Zheng's hand, the wound has healed, leaving a dark brown scar as long as a little finger, like a deep valley and ravine, which is extremely hideous, which shows the tragedy of the injury that day. After a closer look, several imperial doctors gathered together to discuss softly.

Seeing them muttering endlessly, Yishan finally couldn't help but speak, "What's the matter, the adults are all skilled in medicine, there will definitely be a way to cure it, right?" ”

"General Cheng's wound is so deep, it is not easy to heal within a month, if you want to restore the previous convenience, you need at least a year and a half of careful recuperation, and you can't use the sword again within a year." The court sentenced Tong Mingshen to answer.

"If it can be cured, it will be cured." Yishan was overjoyed, "The little doctor in Jiangnan lied to us that he would leave hidden dangers." ”

"There is nothing wrong with saying this, General Cheng's hand has injured his muscles and bones, and it is inevitable that he will leave hidden dangers, even if he recovers, he must pay more attention in the future and not exert too much force."

"How so? You are the imperial doctor, how can your knowledge be the same as that of Langzhong in a small town? Yishan was really a little suspicious of the medical skills of these imperial doctors, and I remember that when I settled in the town that day, the old doctor I was looking for said the same.

"General Cheng's wound is too deep, and the old minister is incompetent. The princess is angry, please General Cheng relax. ”

"You can also lift a sword." Cheng Zheng's face was expressionless, as if he already knew it.

"This is the medicine that General Cheng has been using on the road, please take a look at it, is it inappropriate?" Jin Feng saw that the imperial doctor was coming, and went to get the medicine sent by the doctor when he was parting in the town that day and gave it to Tong Mingshen.

Tong Mingshen poured out the end of the medicine and discussed it with several imperial doctors, "This is a medicine to stop bleeding and heal wounds, and on the basis of Jinchuang Medicine, a few flavors of medicinal materials that can quickly stop bleeding and heal are added. ”

Cheng Zheng nodded in agreement, seeing that the old doctor was calm and calm that day, he must have experienced some wind and rain to be calm, thinking that he should have seen through the world and moved to a small town to settle down for the rest of his life.

Since it is known that this is a good medicine, Jin Feng can rest assured, "General Cheng has applied it all the way, there is not much left of this medicine, if it is good for General Cheng's injury, please ask Lord Tong to bring some more." ”

"This medicine is to speed up the healing of wounds, at this time General Cheng's wound has healed, and there is no need to use it now, just apply light mark cream to remove General Cheng's scar."

The old doctor is really experienced, and even the time for the wound to heal has been calculated, Cheng Zheng secretly admires it. Tong Mingshen sent someone to fetch the light mark ointment, and prescribed a prescription for internal use. Bringing a light-mark ointment, Tong Mingshen instructed to apply it in the morning and evening, "When applying the medicine, massage along the veins of the muscles and bones, which can invigorate qi and blood, and is beneficial to the recovery of injuries." ”

"What are the veins and muscles like?" Yishan asked.

"This, so let's do it, please ask General Cheng's personal attendant to learn massage techniques, and I will apply medicine to General Cheng sooner or later in the future."

Cheng Zheng summoned Qinghan over, but Yishan was very attentive: "I'll come." ”

"Don't dare to have Princess Lao's jade hand." Cheng Zheng got up from his seat in panic and flatly refused.

Yishan insisted: "What don't you dare, you are injured for me, I should give you medicine, what are you polite to me, didn't I help you change the medicine along the way." ”

Cheng Zheng prevaricated, "The capital is not as good as the princess on the road, serving the ministers with medicine, so how can the ministers bear it." ”

"I do! Do you dare not obey? "It's useless to persuade with good words, then you can only use the identity of a princess to suppress you.

"I don't dare." Seeing Cheng Zheng answer honestly, Yishan was secretly proud, the identity of the princess was really good, and it was tried and tested.

Yishan said with satisfaction: "That's good, sit down, sit honestly, and watch Princess Ben show her skills." ”

Under Tong Mingshen's personal demonstration and teaching, Yishan learned it after a while, gently rubbing Cheng Zheng's hand, afraid of touching the scar that had just scabbed, Yishan was careful and meticulous, serious and cautious. Tong Mingshen didn't forget to praise a few words like "the princess is talented and intelligent", and she blossomed happily.

"Qing Han can see clearly?" Cheng Zheng asked, after all, it was Qinghan who served Cheng Zheng every day in the future.

"The slave sees clearly."

Cheng Zheng motioned for Qinghan to retreat, and Yishan gently repeated the action just now until the ointment completely penetrated.

Tong Mingshen instructed, "In the future, General Cheng will apply it every morning and evening, and when the black scab falls off, it will not leave any scars, which is the same as before." ”

"Thank you, Lord Tong."

After sending the imperial doctor away, the hall was much quieter.

Yishan said: "Cheng Zheng." ”

Cheng Zheng was as cold as business: "What does the princess command?" ”

"I feel like you're alienated from me." Yishan's words were sad.

Cheng Zheng said coldly: "It is inconvenient to disclose the identity of the princess on the road, and the ministers are offended. ”

"Really? Then can you not be so polite to me in the future, there are so many etiquettes in the capital, and there are many of them without human warmth. Don't you think it's good to be honest with each other when we're on the road, without so much hypocritical etiquette? ”

It's good to be honest, I've been honest with Yilin for more than ten years, but in exchange for such an ending. Cheng Zheng didn't know how to answer Yishan.

Yishan said, "My father didn't immediately agree yesterday, probably because he thought that I had just known you for a short time, and my decision was too hasty. Today I said that I wanted to come to see you, and my father did not object, I should want us to get acquainted with you. My sister also said that there will be a decree for marriage soon. My father and sister agreed, we are going to be together for a lifetime, do you plan to be polite to me all the time? ”

"Don't say you and me anymore, after tonight, you can love her as me."

"Are you telling the truth? Are you really going to let me marry her? ”

"Yes!"

"Okay, okay, I promise you. I'll marry her! ”

Cheng Zheng couldn't help but feel sad when he thought about what happened last night. Can it really be taken as? I agreed, and if I tried to avoid it again and again, it would only be in vain to arouse suspicion. When it comes, do you know how difficult it is for you to ask me to do this.

Yishan raised his head to meet Cheng Zheng's gloomy eyes, "Cheng Zheng, let me be your right hand for the rest of your life, okay?" ”
