- Meritorious rewards, those who can get it, Xinjun has achieved a precise division in this point, and the measures are very convincing.

But after seven years in such a Taiyi Bureau, Hua Shixian was a little tired of it.

Perhaps if this state of his heart is made public, some people will definitely accuse him of whether his life is too stable and carefree, so that this kind of casual thought of not knowing how to repay the emperor's kindness will emerge. But there are definitely some people who will echo this idea, because the canary in the cage will also have the desire to leap out of the delicate and gorgeous bird's cage, and give up a full stomach and delicious food, just to fly to the open sky and spread its wings to the fullest.

It's not just that the imperial doctor has this idea similar to Hua Shixian's heart, the difference is that he only thinks about it occasionally, or gradually thinks about it every day.

Joining the Imperial Palace Ouchi Imperial Hospital, the scope of activities is fixed, and you can't go wherever you want like the medicine ghost Liao Shi, who is currently only living in legends. And the potential of the medical Tao is obviously not only in the tens of thousands of words of medical books collected by the imperial medical department, but in the vast world. Although Kyoto is a prosperous medical practitioner, it is far from enough to summarize the energy of the entire medical industry.

As a royal honorary medical officer, he enjoys a dazzling status at the top, but it is not very convenient to accept apprentices at the bottom. Medical officers have to go through a set of more cumbersome regulations to accept apprentices, because of this threshold, although the medical children who can get started are not bad in character, they will inevitably miss some seedlings of geniuses who are from low backgrounds but have a talented way of thinking and studying medicine.

The imperial doctor, appointed by the emperor, could not easily treat the common people. However, from a side perspective, the complexity of the patient can improve the doctor's experience and medical skills. At present, Hua Shi is staying in the Taiyi Bureau, except that the medicinal materials are carefully selected before entering the palace, and even the objects of treatment services are fixed, and he can't easily have them, or he shouldn't think of new attempts at all, which really greatly imprisons his willingness to make progress.

And what annoyed him the most was that in this relatively fixed medical service group, there was an old patient like Wang Hong, the second prince.

The second prince's weakness has not been completely recovered, and the frequent recurrence of the illness has caused Hua Shixian, who is behind a famous medical family, to be very shocked.

Wind chill and fever were discussed by the three imperial doctors before, and at this time, the opinions were once again unanimous. Thinking of this gentle-tempered prince, he has a virtuous and ruthless mother-in-law. The three imperial doctors visited Huayang Palace this time. I can't help but be a little too cautious.

After preparing the medicine and handing it over to the two students to be responsible for decoction, the three imperial doctors walked out of the Huayang Palace, and they couldn't help but sigh a few times.

Walk in the courtyard of the gentleman planted with pine and bamboo. The palace behind it was gradually shaded by pine and bamboo. A winding cobbled path ahead. The rockery mentioned in the prince's words just now gradually appeared in half.

This rockery was built by the defeated monarch of the previous dynasty with a lot of money, although the mountain is artificially shaped, but the essence is a whole stone that is actually moved down from the Tianmai Peak.

There is a record on file with the Ministry of Industry of the former dynasty. This solid mountain stone weighs more than 10,000 jun. Seventy-three years ago, when it was mined from Tianmai Peak by craftsmen, because Tianmai Peak was extremely steep, it could not use the power of cattle and horses, and the whole process was carried by manpower, and thousands of slave laborers were used.

According to another historian's document, in the process of transporting this huge mountain rock, more than 20 slave laborers died because they stumbled and slipped down the steep rock cliff, and 14 people were disabled. In addition, when quarrying, he was accidentally chiseled through the palm of his hand with a chisel, his fingers were broken by a hammer and disabled, and he was killed by repeated exposure to the sun and forced labor on the top of the mountain, for this rockery. Just on the Heavenly Vein Peak, sixty slave laborers were lost.

Sixty is the number. It is the length of the year when the last defeated monarch of the previous dynasty ordered the quarrying until the death of the country.

Ironically, according to the records of the previous dynasties, the intention of the deceased monarch to pick this boulder is said to have been the result of the "Asking the Heavens" by the chief official of the Qin Heavenly Prison at that time. Reputedly. There is this megalith town guarding the palace. It can keep the emperor stable.

Such a heavy boulder. It may still be able to be unshaken in the face of the change of earth fissure, but the monarch of the former dynasty has not had time to punish the chief officer of the Qin Heavenly Prison for another major survey mistake.

Koyo-gun, where New Kyoto is located. Now it seems to be a vast imperial capital, but its owner has already changed to another family. If the Tianmai Peak Boulder can really suppress and protect anything, it will no longer be for the monarch of the previous dynasty.

Unlike the pair of fierce lion stone carvings left by the previous dynasty were moved around, and finally lost to the gate of the Commander's Mansion to guard the door, this rockery, which originally landed in the prince's hall of the East Palace of the former dynasty, was only moved once after the establishment of the new dynasty, that is, it was moved to the front courtyard of Huayang Palace. Everyone who visits Huayang Palace, but who walks the main road of the vestibule, will inevitably be able to see it when they come and go.

More than 10 years ago, when this huge rock was moved, it was just carried on the ground, and hundreds of people of Yulinwei sweated like rain, and it is hard to imagine how many coolie slave laborers may be lost when this huge mountain stone is transported from the former emperor Jingye to Huyang, New Kyoto.

It is conceivable that the two preserved case files of the previous dynasty are likely to have many details about this rockery that have not been recorded. At that time, nothing was created for this silent stone, and I don't know how many fresh lives were still lost in it.

This boulder quarried from the treacherous Tianmai Peak on the mountain road itself was created by a group of skilled craftsmen collected by the monarch of the previous dynasty to create a prosperous market scene.

On the top of the rockery, there is a Taoist temple with a very fairy wind artistic conception, there is a silver-bearded Taoist who shakes the dust in his hand to pinch his fingers to measure the heavenly machine in the high pavilion of the view, and there is also a young Taoist priest who sits and plays against each other in the courtyard of the Taoist temple, and his face is contemplative.

In the dense forest on the mountainside, hunters carrying old branches and bows and carrying dead beasts can be seen faintly, as well as a few woodcutters who are cutting trees.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a lake, and the people are gathered into a town, and the atmosphere of the market is strong. The businessmen selling meat and vegetables and selling groceries on the streets of the town have different expressions and expressions, as do passers-by who are buying or just hanging out.

There are also a few children kneeling or lying on the ground, playing with iron beads. The rockery landscape is carved according to one-third of the life-size ratio, but the scene of the children playing with iron beads is to carve the number of small iron beads rolling in two circles on the ground is clearly countable.

If you don't read the old archives kept by the Ministry of Works, it is really hard to imagine that such a thing, which seems to be rich in meaning and beauty on the surface, has been stained with the blood of so many coolie slave laborers, like an evil spirit.

This rockery will be cleaned every half a month by the palace maid with water, and the skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of Engineering will come to paint the paint color once a year. The rockery has been finished for so many years, because the stone itself is of high quality, but there is no loss of stone carving, at most the paint color has changed.

Stand in front of this rockery. Hua Shi, the imperial doctor who was good at silver needles, set his eyes on the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain. His eyes were fixed on the eaves of the main building in the view, and he suddenly said with some puzzlement: "Although this rockery is vividly shaped, when the night falls, the delicate things on the mountain are blurred. There's really no value in stopping and appreciating. ”

Imperial Doctor Feng, who was standing beside him, raised his eyes to find him, and his gaze was also looking at the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain. His eyes stopped at the Taoist pavilion. Looking at the silver-bearded Taoist who was standing in the high pavilion and making a gesture of pinching his fingers and counting the sky. He opened his mouth to echo Hua Shixian's words: "What do you mean by this, are you wondering about the answer of the Second Highness just now?" Walking around the mountain is not necessarily to see the scenery, maybe to grasp the distance. I heard from the Ministry of Industry that walking twice on the cobblestone path that surrounds this rockery is a mile away. ”

Hua Shixian did not immediately respond to Imperial Doctor Feng's words. Imperial Doctor Zhao, who was standing a few steps away from the other side, spoke at this time, and he said slowly: "Brother Shi Xian is referring to the slightly wet new mud on the soles of the prince's boots, right?" Yesterday was indeed not the day when the slaves and maids in the palace washed the rockery every month, and even if the prince had been near the rockery, it was impossible for him to get his shoes wet. What's more, even if you don't consider this, just say that the distance between this rockery and the dormitory, if the prince just has insomnia at night, it is just enough to sit up and read a book for a while, there is really no need to detour to the vicinity of the rockery. ”

Imperial Doctor Feng listened to Imperial Doctor Zhao's reasoning, and suddenly realized a problem, and immediately echoed: "That's right." With the prince's poor physique in recent days. The people in Huayang Palace will also dissuade him from going out of the house at night. ”

Once again, one of the three imperial physicians agreed.

But Hua Shixian quickly sighed again, and said leisurely: "But what can you do if you determine this?" We, the medical officers who are subordinates and have little power, cannot insist on seeking truth from a prince for this reason. The second highness is no different from a cold and fever. But where exactly he went last night was cold. We can't afford to ask. ”

Hua Shixian's voice fell. The three imperial doctors looked at each other for a while, speechless.

Hua Shixian's words were full of helplessness, but the most helpless thing in the world was the most practical. It's so frustrating that you can't change it.

"Rockery, rockery......" Hua Shixian raised his chin slightly, and his eyes seemed to fall on the Taoist temple on the top of the rockery, and it seemed to float to the sky of the unknown bottom with his thoughts. He put the next half of the sentence "meaning fake country? He swallowed back into his throat without leaving a trace, leaving only an empty and meaningless sigh.

After Hua Shixian became a famous family in the medical field, he came to Beijing alone seven years ago and was promoted to the medical officer, full of the willingness to serve the new dynasty with his own ability. And he will have this ambition, which is related to the place where the new dynasty was founded, the new monarch released the medicine ghost Liao Shi who killed the former empress dowager in the heavenly prison, and the many changes that streamlined the doctors of the Imperial Medical Bureau but improved the honorary status of the doctors.

With his reliable skills, the famous doctor Hua Shixian was successfully admitted to the Taiyi Bureau in one fell swoop when he first entered Beijing. As long as he has real skills, he can get more equal treatment from the monarch of the new dynasty, which did not disappoint Hua Shixian's expectations.

When he first entered the Taiyi Bureau, Hua Shixian only worked as a student for two years, and then he was promoted to a medical worker, and after another year, he was directly promoted to the rank of the nine doctors of the Imperial Court, enjoying the qualifications of the medical reserve of the Taiyi Bureau, as well as the honor of the prince and marquis. Behind the rapid promotion of a newcomer's status, in addition to his own hard work, there is also the kindness of the son of heaven.

Although the attitude of all the imperial doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau on this matter has gradually been put on a level, that is, the prince's deficiency is born insufficient, and the acquired medical skills can only be maintained as much as possible.

For example, many years ago, the medicine ghost Liao Shineng made the dying former queen mother wake up immediately, and her complexion was also vivid, but it became a trace of returning to the light, and within a month, the old queen mother died of complete illness.

There is a lesson from the previous car, so none of the imperial doctors can cure the prince's deficiency disease, although there is no merit, but it cannot be rated as dereliction of duty and can only continue to eat dry rice.

After the medicine ghost Liao Shi was released from the prison more than ten years ago, he has never been found back in Beijing. No one suggested that he give it a try, and after more than ten years, he had already refined the method of healing the former dead ghost queen mother a lot, and he could really cure the prince's deficiency and completely cut off the root of the disease?

No one mentioned it, which seems to prove that no one can change the status quo of the second prince lingering on the sickbed.

But Hua Shixian doesn't think so, he comes from a family of doctors, and the family concept of practicing medicine has been passed down from generation to generation for more than 100 years.

If it is a disease, there is a cure.

It may take more than one attempt before discovering a precise cure, and perhaps some of the wrong ways to correct it.

But now that he is in the Taiyi Bureau, he doesn't even have a chance to try, or he is almost cut off, and many ideas are accumulated in his mind, which makes his mind swell and uncomfortable.

Three years ago, the second prince Wang Hong went to the east coast with the royal car to watch the spring shipping ceremony. When I came back, I was not surprisingly sick. But the result of that illness was a bit bizarre, because since he recovered from that illness, the prince seemed to have drifted away from the deficiency that had plagued him for many years. He has maintained a relatively strong physical condition, and this good state has not changed for nearly three years.

This bizarre event. Naturally, the doctors of the Taiyi Bureau occasionally talked about it after tea and dinner, and the reason why the weak physique of the prince who had been riddled with illnesses for many years was greatly improved, gradually surfaced on the fog.

It turned out that the reason why Imperial Doctor Ye, who was also among the nine doctors of the imperial court three years ago, resigned, was not because he accidentally fell from a horse and injured his spine and could no longer stand for a long time, but because he used a dose of fierce medicine on the way back from that visit.

This fierce medicine is comparable to the means of the medicine ghost Liao Shi. The second prince would fall ill that day, probably because of the use of this medicine.

Otherwise, even if the second prince is weak, he will not just blow a gust of sea breeze and come back so sick-
