Chapter 219: Supporting Thoughts
Hearing the voice, the Shujie brothers who rushed out knelt down with Shu Yao: "Chen Xia Shujie took his younger brothers and sisters to receive the order." ”
All the clansmen and officials in the courtyard who came to watch the ceremony also knelt down one after another, secretly wondering in their hearts what was this sudden holy decree? Can't wait for the ancestor worship ceremony to be completed? Is it a blessing or a curse?
The person who came first showed the token of the emperor's secret decree, and then took out a paper scroll with a dragon seal and handed it to Shujie, Shujie took it with both hands, carefully opened the seal, and unfolded it to see, it was Jin Xida's handwriting, not many words, after sweeping it at a glance, Shujie stood on the spot, his face was pale, and his whole body was trembling. Although Shu Yao and Shu Wen couldn't raise their heads, they felt Shu Jie's shock, and they instantly became nervous, and they also knew nothing.
The person who came noticed that Shujie had finished reading the content of the note, and said eagerly: "Holy Lord's edict, please ask the three brothers and sisters of Xia Zhuangyuan to leave immediately, and no one shall hinder or delay them." Xia Zhuangyuan, the twenty guards at the gate were selected by the emperor to let Weiyuan Hou, escort you to the road, the carriage has also been prepared, and they are all waiting outside the door. ”
Shujie endured the incomparably huge shock, and hurriedly replied: "The ministers are grateful, long live the emperor, long live, long live." There was still an irrepressible tremor in his voice.
Shujie turned to the patriarch, and before he could speak, the patriarch waved his hand eagerly: "Go, go, don't delay, we will arrange other things." "What is greater than the decree? In a hurry to pass the decree? The emperor's secret decree does not allow them to guess and probe.
Yang Yishan and the prefect of the Daimyo Mansion also hurriedly said: "Lord Xia, let's take my younger brothers and sisters on our way, we will take care of anything in the Xia Mansion." "No one is not curious about where the three Shujie brothers and sisters are going, what is the matter? But no one dared to show the slightest look of inquiry. In short, it was a carriage and a guard. It's certainly not a bad thing like a debunk. It's always right to stutter.
Shujie nodded: "Thank you!" I also bothered the patriarch's grandfather to talk to Mother Liu and Aunt Mei. "Mother Liu and the others can't enter the yard. You can only wait outside.
After Shujie finished speaking, he couldn't wait for the patriarch to respond, so he took the hands of his younger siblings and rushed out.
Sure enough, there was a carriage parked at the door, driven by two horses, all of them were first-class horses, and behind the carriage were twenty guards on horses, led by Ah Feng, one of the personal guards of the Marquis of Weiyuan. There were also three or four spare rotating horses in the team. It can be seen that these people came all the way.
Shujie didn't have time to say anything, and nodded towards Ah Feng. Pulled his younger siblings into the carriage.
As soon as the carriage door opened, the three of them were stunned, and there was already a person sitting in the carriage, and it turned out to be Gao Mingde.
The driver was also a guard from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, and whispered: "Young Master Xia, get in the car, we are on our way." "The three brothers and sisters of this guard Shujie all know each other.
The three of them woke up and hurriedly got into the carriage. Ah Feng gave an order, and the coachman immediately whipped him, and the team drove away.
Aunt Mei nervously held Mother Liu's hand, and she was about to cry: "There won't be anything, right?" Nothing will happen, right? ”
Mother Liu, what big world has she never seen? He also recognized that several of those guards were from the forbidden army and the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion. is much calmer than Aunt Mei: "Don't worry, there should be something urgent." Maybe Jin Gongzi has returned to Beijing. Thinking of this, Mother Liu was also a little worried, couldn't it be that something happened to Jin Gongzi, so she hurriedly took Shujie and the three back to Beijing?
Suddenly, someone in front of me exclaimed: "It's not the direction of entering Beijing, they're not entering Beijing, where are they going?" The person who exclaimed was also from the Xia family, and the patriarch who drove him out glared at him and shouted, "Shut up, is this something you can ask?" ”
Father-in-law Shunzi also waved the dust on his hand: "It's all scattered, since it is a secret decree, how can you speculate and talk about it?" ”
Everyone hurriedly held their breath and dispersed quietly, and Shunzi's father-in-law came to Yulin twice, and everyone knew that he was the big eunuch next to the Queen Mother. Not to mention the common people, even those officials, they all treated him respectfully.
At this time, the messenger walked up to Father-in-law Shunzi and Grandma Liu: "I've seen Father-in-law Shunzi, I've seen Grandma Liu, and I'm under Liu Quan." The Queen Mother has a will, let the two stay in Yulin Town to help Xia Zhuangyuan first, and then return to Beijing with Xia Zhuangyuan's three brothers and sisters. ”
Mama Liu and the others hurriedly responded, and did not ask Shujie where the three of them had gone and when they would return to Yulin. In fact, even if they asked, it would be in vain, and Liu Quan didn't know what to say.
Liu Quan passed the word and was about to step on the horse and return to Beijing to resume his life, but Liu's mother hurriedly stopped: "Wait a minute, Guard Liu, I asked someone to prepare some dry food and water for you, and it will be there soon." ”
Before the words fell, Hongjin ran over panting, holding a package and a water bladder.
Liu Quan took the thing, and knew by his hand that there was dry food, hot food, and silver in the package. Gratefully: "Thank you Mother Liu!" "They came all the way, they couldn't eat or sleep well, they were really hungry and thirsty, but they couldn't delay returning to Beijing to resume their lives. I didn't expect Liu's mother to take care of him, and she made thoughtful arrangements so quickly, if it was someone else, it would be a big deal to stuff some silver. With such a palace mother teaching by her side, it is no wonder that the three brothers and sisters of the Xia family are very popular, and everyone is full of praise when they mention them.
The three brothers and sisters of the Xia family were listening to Gao Mingde speak in the carriage at the moment: "Master Hou said that your father Xia Zhutou was seriously injured and asked me to go with you for treatment, saying that Xia Zhutou has made great achievements for the Great Zhou, and the emperor ordered me to do my best to treat him." ”
Shu Yao and Shu Wen's eyes widened, and two pairs of big eyes stared at Gao Mingde incredulously, right? Is it the father, or the stepfather? Was it an uncle's slip of the tongue, or was Brother Gao dizzy? Their fathers have been dead for more than four years, and they still went hunting and were bitten to death by fierce beasts, what made a great achievement for the Great Zhou? It's the father-in-law!
No, no, never! Don't want any great feats, don't want your father-in-law to be seriously injured, they don't have a father, and your father-in-law must not have anything happen to you!
Shujie knew the shock of his younger siblings, and took out the secret decree from his arms: "Brother Gao is not mistaken, it is our father who is seriously injured, and this is the letter of my father-in-law." He had slowly recovered from the huge shock, the corpse was unrecognizable, there was no intact flesh and skin on the body, and they only judged that it was his father Xia Linxuan based on the purse and bracelet next to the corpse.
The Shu Yao sisters and brothers snatched the letter paper and read it eagerly: Your father is not dead, and he had amnesia before. Now seriously injured. I want to go back to Yulin to see you. Greet each other quickly, just in case. Father-in-law
Shu Yao threw herself into Shu Jie's arms, tears in her eyes: "Big brother, Dad is not dead, Dad is still here, is Dad's injury very serious?" Big brother, what should I do? Shu Yao knew that his father's injury must be extremely serious. Otherwise, the father-in-law would not have asked them to rush to meet them on the road "just in case", nor would he have said "I want to go back to Yulin to see you".
Shuwen also hugged Shujie's arm: "Big brother, I'm afraid, Dad will be fine, right?" ”
Shujie hugged his younger siblings tightly, as if he wanted to give them strength, and as if he wanted to absorb strength for himself: "No, Dad will be fine, Brother Gao is here, he will definitely be able to save Daddy." ”
Gao Mingde sighed, there were some things he didn't want to say. I can't bear to say it, but. I have to say, "I will definitely do my best, but ...... You still have to be mentally prepared, Hou Ye said that Xia Zhutou's injury was very serious, if it wasn't for the Huiyuan Pill you gave to Jin Gongzi, I'm afraid it would have been ...... Moreover, counting the approximate time of Xia Zhutou taking Huiyuan Dan, it has been more than a month. In fact, Gao Mingde was very bottomless, when he set off from the capital, he estimated that Xia Linxuan had been injured for a month, and the limit of returning to Yuan Dan to protect his vitality was a month at most, but the famous doctors in the entire southwest were invited by Prince Yong, and there was no way, which shows that Xia Linxuan's injury is serious.
In Gao Mingde's mind, it is already a miracle that he can survive for a month, I'm afraid it is Xia Linxuan's desire to see his children to support him, right? I don't know if the road will last until they arrive.
If it weren't for the fact that Xia Linxuan was the father of Shujie's three siblings, Gao Mingde would not have taken the order to run this trip, and wanted to try it to the best of his ability. He is the so-called "miracle doctor", yes, he is not an immortal after all.
When the three of Shujie saw Jin Xida's words, they already knew it in their hearts, but they didn't misunderstand what Gao Mingde shirked first, if he didn't have good intentions and wanted to try his best to save it, he wouldn't have made this hard trip, it was likely that he hadn't been pleased, and even damaged his reputation as a miracle doctor.
The group traveled day and night for three days and three nights, and finally met the carriage of Jin Xida and his party on the road, and Xia Linxuan, who was dying, saw his three children, his eyes lit up, and then he passed out.
Gao Mingde hurriedly did a quick examination for Xia Linxuan and administered first aid with an injection.
After a while, Xia Linxuan woke up and weakly spit out a sentence: "Jie'er, Yao'er, Wen'er, Dad is sorry for your mother, sorry for you, you have to be good." After saying that, he fainted again.
Gao Mingde probed his pulse, lifted his eyelids and checked it again, before he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's asleep, he seems to be very sleepy." ”
Jin Xida choked and said: "The closer he gets to Yulin, the more he doesn't dare to sleep, for fear that he will never wake up once he sleeps." He wants to see you, to see your mother's grave. Every time, I couldn't hold back my sleep, and when I woke up and saw me, I exhaled softly, saying that it was okay to wake up again. ”
Gao Mingde was really unconfident: "Let's find an inn in a nearby town, I'll check it carefully." However, I am afraid that at most...... It can only drag on for a while, Shujie ...... There is no problem with Xia Zhutou's external injury, the key is that the five internal organs seem to have failed...... It's also painful to drag. You watch him first, and I'll go to the carriage and dispense the medicine. "If it was just when he was injured, Gao Mingde should still be a little sure, but now...... I can only try, how long can it be delayed, at least let Xia Linxuan achieve the most difficult wish.
Fortunately, Jin Xida's original letter to the emperor attached a diagnosis and prescription of a local doctor to Gao Mingde's reference, and Gao Mingde's carriage brought a lot of good medicinal materials.
After Gao Mingde got out of the car, Jin Xida looked at Xia Linxuan's frowning brows when he was asleep, and sighed: "After seeing your mother's grave, I'm afraid that he himself won't have any will to survive." If he hadn't wanted to see you, your father wouldn't have taken Hui Yuan Dan at all. Now that I have seen you, there is only one thought that can sustain him. (To be continued......)
