Chapter 19: The Divine Doctor
"Speaking of famous doctors, there are countless in Beijing. Especially the Tai Hospital, it is a gathering of apricot forest masters of the Great Zhou Dynasty. ”
Ling Jingyan was deliberately pretentious, and listed them one by one: "Imperial Doctor Zhou is good at treating pediatric diseases, and when the princes and grandchildren are sick, they are all diagnosed and treated by Imperial Doctor Zhou. Doctor Yu is good at treating women's diseases, and the concubines and concubines in the palace are sick and unwell, most of them are Doctor Yu. These two imperial doctors are well-known in the Tai Hospital, and those who are idle are not allowed to invite them. Only the royal family and the noble marquis' mansion, as well as the civil officials of the first and second grades, can invite them to come to the door for treatment. However, the medical skills of the two of them are nothing compared to Doctor Wei. ”
Doctor Wei?
Ling Jingshu's heart moved, and she couldn't wait to ask, "What diseases is this Imperial Doctor Wei good at treating?" ”
Ling Jingyan said with a smile: "Imperial Doctor Wei is the best at treating incurable diseases. There are many patients who have been diagnosed with incurable diseases, and they have been cured by Dr. Wei. Just two months ago, there was a patient whose legs had been sick for many years and could not walk, but after being rescued by Dr. Wei, he was able to walk on the ground. I heard that as long as you practice for a while, you will be able to return to normal. ”
There is such a miracle in the world!
Ling Jingshu suppressed the surprise in her heart, and pretended to be curious and asked: "This Imperial Doctor Wei is the imperial doctor in the Imperial Hospital, and he should treat the people in the palace, how can there be such a thing as treating patients." ”
"There's a reason for that. You're not in the capital, of course you don't know. Ling Jingyan talked about sexuality, and continued to talk: "Most of the doctors in the Tai Hospital are from the Xinglin family and have been studying medicine since childhood. There are also some famous doctors from the states and counties of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Doctor Wei is an exception. ”
"I heard that Imperial Physician Wei lost his mother when he was a child, and his father died of illness when he was three years old. has always relied on the eldest sister in the family. When he was a child, he went to the pharmacy as an apprentice, because of his intelligence and talent, he was selected by the doctor sitting in the hall, accepted as a closed disciple, and began to study medicine at the age of six. ”
"If it goes on like this, he will become a somewhat famous doctor at most. However, the fate of man is unpredictable."
Ling Jingyan said this, deliberately pausing for a moment.
Ling Jingshu was extremely curious, and couldn't help asking, "What happened later?" ”
"I talked for a long time, and I was thirsty." Ling Jingyan pretended to cough.
Ling Jingshu smiled dumbly, so she had to get up and pour her a cup of tea: "Cousin Yan said that her mouth is dry, drink this cup of tea and then continue." ”
Where is Ling Jingyan thirsty, but she deliberately pretended, took a sip of tea, and said with great interest: "When he was ten years old, his eldest sister was exactly sixteen years old, and she was born with a flower and a moon appearance, and she was caught by a county king in the royal family's mansion, and wanted to snatch her into the mansion as a concubine. Miss Wei would rather die than obey, and hit her head on the door, and immediately bled profusely, and almost died on the spot. ”
"Coincidentally, Concubine Xu, who had not yet been made the queen, happened to pass by the county king's mansion, and when she heard about it, she didn't like it, so she ordered someone to heal Miss Wei's injuries, and reprimanded the county king fiercely."
"Miss Wei was also a blessing in disguise, and after her injury was healed, she entered the palace and became a palace maid. Because of his beauty, he quickly won the favor of the emperor. The emperor wanted to give her a position, but I heard that she politely refused, and she was still a palace maid by Concubine Xu's side. only begged the emperor to let her younger brother enter the hospital, and the two sisters and brothers could see each other often. The emperor nodded in agreement, and the twelve-year-old Imperial Physician Wei became the youngest imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital. He worshipped the doctor of Tai Hospital, who was highly skilled, as a teacher, and has been concentrating on studying the medical prescriptions of the past dynasties, and in just a few years, he has been famous in the capital for his superb medical skills and rejuvenation. ”
"Everyone in the palace knows that the emperor looks at her differently, and even Concubine Xu is more favored, and she was soon promoted to a position and became a concubine."
Hearing Xu Guifei's name, Ling Jingshu's eyes turned cold.
This Xu Guifei later became the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He had a son and a daughter under his knees, and his son King Yan later became the prince and ascended the throne as the emperor. The daughter, Princess Changping, is the most favored by the emperor.
The one who fell in love with Lu Hong and insisted on recruiting him as a concubine was the noble Princess Changping!
Ling Jingyan was unaware of it and continued: "Later, Empress Jiang died of illness, and the emperor naturally appointed Concubine Xu as the queen. Imperial Physician Wei's sister was also named Jieyu. ”
"Wei Jieyu is favored in the palace, and everyone in the hospital is vying to curry favor. The drudgery of curing the illness of the concubines and emperors was not on his turn at all. Doctor Wei Taikong has a subtle medical skill, but he has nowhere to show it, and he is very helpless. He set up a charity hall in the capital to house patients suffering from incurable diseases. Because he cured many patients who were diagnosed as dying, he soon became famous in the capital. ”
It is precisely because of this that everyone has seen the medical skills of Imperial Physician Wei. Later, Imperial Physician Wei became the emperor's exclusive imperial physician. In addition to the emperor, only the queen mother and the prince who have been ill for a long time can ask for the imperial doctor. ”
However, the benevolent hall set up by Imperial Physician Wei in the capital has not been closed. Accept patients who have not been cured for a long time. It's just that Imperial Physician Wei has to be on duty in the palace, and he has very little free time every month. Only on the fifteenth day of the first day of the new year will I go to the charity hall. Imperial Physician Wei was known as Doctor Weishen, and that good hall also had a nickname, called Rejuvenation Hall. As long as you live in the capital, no one doesn't know about the Rejuvenation Hall. ”
"Doctor Wei is famous in the capital, not only because of his superb medical skills and noble status. is also because he was born with an elegant and handsome appearance, he is a famous beautiful man in the capital, and he is only twenty-four years old this year. I don't know how many famous daughters secretly admired him, and waited outside the Rejuvenation Hall with a cheeky face, just to see him. It's a pity that Doctor Wei is obsessed with medical skills and is very indifferent to women, so he has not yet married. ”
Ling Jingyan's mouth was dry, and she drank the tea in her hand casually.
Then, as if remembering something, he looked at Ling Jingshu curiously: "Cousin Shu, what are you doing so carefully?" Could it be that you also want to go to the capital and see this Wei Shen Doctor? ”
Ling Jingshu didn't refute, it was a tacit acquiescence.
Ling Jingyan was originally just laughing casually, but when she saw Ling Jingshu's reaction like this, she couldn't help but be stunned: "Good manner, what are you going to see him for?" ”
Ling Jingshu didn't hide it, and said calmly: "Ah Xiao fell when he was eight years old, hurt his brain, and he has been blind for so many years, and he can't read and learn anymore. I've always regretted it in my heart. If there's a chance I can heal his eyes, I'll definitely give it a try. ”
Since he has made up his mind to go to the capital, there is no need to hide the matter of curing Ling Xiao's eyes.
Ling Jingyan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly sighed: "Cousin Xiao's eyes are indeed a pity. He was very intelligent from a young age and was known as a child prodigy. If it weren't for his blindness, he might have passed the county test a long time ago. ”
After a pause, he said, "If you want to take Cousin Xiao to the capital to treat your eyes, it's indeed a good thing." However, this is a long way to go, and it may not be cured in time when it arrives in the capital, so I don't know how much time and energy it will take. Grandmother and fifth uncle may not be willing to nod in agreement. ”
Ling Jingshu looked at Ling Jingyan sincerely: "I won't tell you, I already had this plan in my heart, and I have also thought of a way to deal with it." When my grandmother celebrates her birthday, you will return to the capital. I want to go to Luoyang with you and borrow your house for a while. When the time comes, you will have to ask Cousin Yan to take care of it. ”
Ling Jingyan smiled without thinking, "This is a good idea. When I went to the capital with us, I didn't think that my grandmother and fifth uncle would have anything to worry about. Don't say anything kind to me, you can stay in the mansion when you get to the capital, and you can stay as long as you want. ”
Ling Jingyan was so enthusiastic, but it was quite surprising.
Ling Jingshu originally didn't have much affection for Ling Jingyan. At this time, I couldn't help but be moved: "Then I will thank Cousin Yan first." He reminded him euphemistically: "I haven't mentioned this matter to my grandmother yet, and I ask Cousin Yan to keep it secret for the time being." ”
Ling Jingyan responded with a smile
The two chatted for a long time, and at noon, Ling Jingshu deliberately left Ling Jingyan to have lunch in the Qiushui Pavilion. He sent someone to call Ling Xiao over.
Unexpectedly, when Ling Xiao came over, there were two more behind him.
When Lu Hong's handsome and gentle face came into view, Ling Jingshu frowned almost reflexively, and her expression suddenly turned cold.
Lu Hong was already accustomed to Ling Jingshu's indifference, and he was not too discouraged, and stepped forward with a smile: "Cousin Shu, I was explaining the text to Cousin Xiao just now, and I heard that Cousin Shu had prepared lunch here, so I couldn't help it for a while, so I cheekily followed. Please also ask Cousin Shu not to be surprised. ”
What about weirdness?
People are coming, and they can't just drive him away!
Although she really wanted to do this, but when she thought of Old Lady Ling, she had to force herself to suppress this impulse, and responded coldly: "I didn't expect Cousin Lu and Cousin Qian to come over together, the meal was not rich, I was afraid that I would snub the distinguished guests." ”
Ling Jingshu didn't turn her face on the spot, she was willing to deal with herself with a few words, Lu Hong was already very happy in her heart, where could she care about whether the meal was rich or not, and smiled again and again: "Cousin Shu doesn't think our brother is presumptuous." ”
Lu Qian couldn't interject for a while, so he stood aside with a smile. But those eyes stared at Ling Jingshu without blinking.
Ling Xiao's eyes couldn't see, but Ling Jingyan's eyesight was very good, and she couldn't help but laugh secretly when she saw this scene.
The admiration in Lu Hong's eyes is so obvious that even a blind person can see it. That's it! Unexpectedly, Lu Qian, who still looks like a child, also knows what it means to be a "fair lady and gentleman".
