1206, prey
- Standing in front of this rockery, Hua Shixian, the imperial doctor who is good at silver needles, fixed his eyes on the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, and his eyes were fixed on the eaves of the main building in the temple, 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, and there is 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, but his eyes stopped at the Taoist temple. Looking at the silver-bearded Taoist who was standing in the high pavilion and making a gesture of pinching his fingers to count the sky, he opened his mouth with 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 the people from the Ministry of Industry say that walking twice on the cobblestone path around the 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 I am sure of this." What can it be? 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 will to serve the new dynasty with his own ability. And he will have that ambition. It is related to the place where the new dynasty was established, the new monarch released the medicine ghost Liao Shi who killed the former empress dowager in the prison, and many changes to streamline the medical staff of the Imperial Medical Bureau but improve 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 you have real skills. The monarchs of the new dynasty can get more equal treatment. This did not disappoint Hua Shixian's expectations.
Newly joined the Taiyi Medical Bureau. Hua Shixian only worked as a student for two years, and then he was promoted to medical worker, and after another year. He was directly promoted to the rank of the Nine Doctors of the Imperial Court, and enjoyed the qualifications of the chief physician of the Imperial Medical 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 mentioned yì for him to give it a try, and after more than ten years, he has improved a lot of the method of healing the former dead ghost queen mother, and he can 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 Imperial Medical Bureau, he has not even had a chance to try, or he is almost cut off, and many ideas are left 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. When I came back, I was so sick.
- If that were the case, His Majesty might not have taken him to a windy place like the seaside at all!
This was an attempt by Imperial Doctor Ye, and overall, the treatment results were still very gratifying, but Imperial Doctor Ye paid the price of Yan Zòng because of this attempt.
Rao is majesty has obviously treated this imperial doctor with special treatment in the past, and this imperial doctor has always been mainly responsible for the daily recuperation of the second prince's body, but once the safety of a prince is concerned. His Majesty didn't have much forgiveness for this person. His Majesty only forgave Imperial Doctor Ye for his serious injuries when he fell from his horse at that time, and did not accept the punishment, but there was no room for a slow turn in his will to remove him from the Imperial Medical Bureau.
But. When it comes to this matter, there are still two mysteries.
Why didn't Imperial Doctor Ye sooner or later. I just rushed to the guard of honor who came back from watching the ceremony, and the royal chariot was slightly bumpy. Use such a fierce potion for the second prince? What if something goes wrong? It's too late to send it back to the palace where the remedial herbs are sufficient?
This may be the reason why His Majesty is really angry, Imperial Doctor Ye is not only bold, but also unrigorous, and has the meaning of treating human life as child's play. As long as there is a trace of this shadow, it appears in the process of treating the prince. It is enough to be convicted.
Another point of mystery is. Although Ye Imperial Doctor was removed from the list of His Majesty's anger. The dazzling glory of the imperial doctor above his head has been reversed. It turned into a black cloud of shame. From a certain point of view, he got the kind of vision that Hua Shixian was looking forward to to getting out of the cage and being free.
But after three years. Not only did Ye Zhengming not stay away from Kyoto, the capital city full of right and wrong for him, he strolled and traveled all over the world. Instead, he set up a fixed location in Kyoto, which he named "Ichihaju".
And in the "Yiye Ju" for nearly three years, he finally accumulated some good reputation, Ye Zhengming showed a kind of attitude of not cherishing his wings and face, and he became more and more picky about receiving patients, and many incurable rules.
I really don't know what this former Imperial Doctor's most trusted imperial doctor thinks. Could it be that people who are good at using fierce drugs and strange drugs are like the medicine ghost Liao Shi, whose thinking is too different from ordinary people? Or is it because His Majesty's attitude towards him changed dramatically three years ago, and under the pressure of this Son of Heaven, Dr. Ye's usual steady and mountain-like emotions were slightly distorted unconsciously?
In short, no matter what, looking at the events and the continuous changes that happened to Imperial Doctor Ye, they are as clear and firm as the words carved on the stone by a chisel. Don't try to try out the immature healing techniques on the princes and nobles, even if like that Imperial Doctor Chen, there are thousands of "monkey grasses" used, but because of a little mistake, it is almost equivalent to setting yourself on fire.
The new monarch of the new dynasty has to be more uniform and fair in the rules of rewards and punishments for merit and demerits, and there is always one aspect that he cannot fully take into account, that is, it involves the people closest to him.
……
……
In Wang Hong's mind, the impression of Ye Ziqing was still fixed ten years ago.
The young woman with a slight bulge in her lower abdomen always liked to walk slowly around in the quiet garden, and occasionally stopped in front of the wild apricot tree in the corner of the courtyard, raised her hand to hold an apricot branch that was only bare and gray in winter, and stared at the slight protrusion of the branch, and her eyes were full of expectation, as if she had seen the bright branches in the beginning of spring.
Living in Bessoen, she cares a lot about food, and although she doesn't eat much at every meal, she must have a lot of variety. He was blessed for a few months. In addition, during pregnancy, she rarely had certain habits that other pregnant women often have.
……
The time when Ye Ziqing was canonized as a virtuous concubine is very close to the time when Xiao Wanting was canonized as a concubine, and both of them have also had the experience of taking care of Wang Hong for a period of time. But ten years ago, Wang Hong had vaguely ranked these two people in a priority position in his heart.
Although Concubine Xian could not continue to take care of Wang Hong because she had to give birth, she moved him to Concubine De, but during the days when Concubine De's Xiaohuai Palace lived, Wang Hong often missed Concubine Xian. It's just that I don't know what accident happened later, and her people said that it was gone.
At that time, Wang Hong was only about four or five years old, and he had no other feelings except for being sad for a while.
However, the days when he lived in Concubine Xian's annex for about half a year, and after that, nearly ten years later, it was unforgettable.
Even in the later years, Concubine De never stopped taking care of him, but the dependence he had on Concubine Xian when he was a child was not something that Concubine De could dilute and replace by accumulating time.
What's more, he is no longer the child he was back then.
Although he was physically weak since childhood, it did not weaken his mental power. In recent years, from inadvertently hearing about it to intentionally inquiring, the information he has been able to grasp about the sudden death of Concubine Ye Ziqing is not all that happened back then, but the tip of the iceberg has seen the strange atmosphere of unsolved mysteries.
Among the fragments of information, there is a key element that surprised Wang Hong the most, and he couldn't skip this matter in his heart: the daughter born to Concubine Xian is still alive.
This is his sister.
When Concubine Xian was pregnant, she had contact with the imperial doctor, palace maid, and midwife...... can always let Wang Hong find one or two old people.
Judging from the time, Concubine Xian's daughter is the baby that Mr. Lin took out of the palace ten years ago. At first glance, there seemed to be some obscure and unspeakable problems, but Wang Hong was lucky enough to find a personal servant with Concubine Xian when she was not out of the pavilion, so he knew that Mr. Lin took Concubine Xian's daughter out of the palace back then, and it was not because of reluctance.
Concubine Xian gave birth, but the ending was that two of the three lives of one corpse had been lost, and after several imperial doctors consulted, a terrible truth was obtained.
In the context of the crisis where the real culprit is unknown, but the means of murder are extremely intriguing, the father does not want to take the daughter left by the concubine in exchange for his life to take risks, and after discussing with Mr. Lin, he made him leave Kyoto with the baby girl, and sent people to chase and kill him all the way, causing him to fake his death.
And the root cause of the ultimate disaster, in the palace that is heavily guarded, but the internal hearts are inevitably complicated, who will be the real culprit who can use slow poison to eclipse the constitution of the virtuous concubine?
Wang Hong has a hobby of reading, because he has never expected the matter of establishing a prince to fall on him, so most of his reading is biased towards the government. And the emperor saw that he was weak, and did not give him too heavy a study task. This allowed him to have a relatively free reading space and obtain some fragmentary records of the secrets of the court of the previous dynasty.
The cause is jealousy, and the fruit falls to killing, which is really a palace killing!
It's just two simple words, with an incomparably empty reason, one thought to kill a person.
Wang Hong couldn't believe that if a woman's jealousy continued, it could eventually form such a terrible sin.
However, this situation does not seem to have happened in this dynasty.
Wang Hong once tried to think that maybe because of his father's background, he was not born with a royal identity, so he didn't have so many concubines who married with interests and shared beds and dreams, plus the abnormal unity within the Wang family, his father had true feelings for the six women he had who officially married into the door, and the rain and dew were evenly wet, and these women also got along with each other very harmoniously.
But is that really the case? …… (To be continued......)
