Chapter 16: Circles
It took two hours, and Yang Yun finally found all the medicinal materials. A group of people rushed back, and when they arrived in Xijing City, it was already dark. Unable to take a break, Yang Yun immediately asked Yao Xia to arrange for his subordinates to mash the herbs that should be applied externally and boil the medicine for internal use.
After untying the strip of cloth wrapped around the sore, cleaning the wound again, and applying the herbs applied externally, and bandaging it with the strip of cloth, it was already the second watch. After explaining in detail how to take the decoction, Yang Yun returned to the prince's mansion with all the guards.
In the next few days, Yang Yun went to change the old man's dressing every day and check the recovery of the old man's condition. After three days, the old man's condition was finally under control, his consciousness was completely clear, and the red sores on his body also improved significantly.
"I'm out of danger, and I won't need to change the medicine every day in the future. You must wash the sores every day and keep your clothes clean to avoid re-infection. In addition, the decoction should also be taken every day. As a doctor, Yang Yun was very happy to see the patient getting better, and carefully told the two maids who were responsible for taking care of him.
Leaving the winery where the Cheetah Department was located, seeing that it was still early, Yang Yun decided to walk around. I heard that there is a restaurant called Hongbin Lou nearby, the chef's skills are particularly good, and the peddlers, pawns and literati and high-rollers from the north and south like to stop here, drink a pot, and talk about the world. At the same time, it is also a good place to listen to all kinds of news, so Yang Yun decided to take a look.
"Guest officer, please come in!" Seeing that Yang Yun was dressed gorgeously and with several attendants, Xiao Er knew that his status was extraordinary, so he hurriedly took him to a remote table where he could hear the guests chatting and sat down.
"I heard that no, General Guide's newly married concubine, on the wedding night, actually took advantage of him to get drunk and eloped with someone."
"Zhang Jibu dealers on Dongshun Street were stolen by thieves the night before, but the strange thing is that the thief only carried a few bundles of cloth, and a lot of valuable things didn't move."
Yang Yun sat in Hongbin Tower for more than an hour, listening to these guests talk about all kinds of new news, but nothing could catch his attention. As he was about to leave, the conversation between the two diners caught their attention.
"Alas! Tongfu Inn has another unsuccessful candidate hanged! A voice came from the corner, Yang Yun turned his head to look, and saw two businessmen-looking people sitting at the table in the corner of the hall, and the one who spoke just now was a middle-aged man in a yellow robe.
"This scientific examination is an opportunity for poor students to jump the dragon gate, but those who are not in the examination are not talents!" Another man in a cyan robe said.
"Alas! What Brother Yu said is yes, learn literary and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family, but if you don't have a chance to get ahead, you can only achieve nothing for life. ”
"Forget it, forget it, don't talk about it, if some words reach the ears of the officials, it won't be worth it to eat a lawsuit."
So, the two changed the subject and shifted the subject to business. Yang Yun lost interest in listening, so he took a few guards back to the prince's mansion.
Back in the house, Yan Qin and Liu Yue, two maids, were busy bringing him hot water to wash his face, helping him change his clothes, and serving him hot tea. Looking at the crappy appearance of the two, Yang Yun couldn't help but laugh, these two girls are very murderous, but they are really not good at serving people.
However, Yang Yun didn't care, he wasn't really the kind of boy who came to stretch out his hand to eat and open his mouth.
At night, lying on the couch, thinking about the words of the two businessmen in the afternoon, I felt that it made sense. Among these unsuccessful students, there should be many talented people. In the world he is in, aren't Huang Chao, Tang Bohu, and Li Shizhen all failed in scientific expeditions, but they all made some achievements?
On the second day, Yang Yun was going to go to the Tongfu Inn to have a look, in order to prevent those guards from scaring those scholars, he asked Yan Qin and Liu Yue to follow him, but let the guards follow from a distance.
Leaving the mansion, just after walking a short distance, a team of neatly dressed soldiers hurriedly chased after a sedan chair from behind.
"Old Thirteen, where are you running so early? It's hard to chase after my brother for a while. A loud shout came from the sedan chair, and when Yang Yun heard it, it was the voice of Yang Ming, the fifth emperor brother, so he stopped on the side of the road and waited for Yang Ming to catch up.
"Fifth Emperor Brother, do you have something to do with me?" For this winning king, Yang Yun still has a good impression.
"Come into the sedan chair! Take you to a good place for your brother! "Yang Ming seems to be in a good mood!
"Where are you going? I have a little more to do! ”
"What's the matter? It doesn't matter, I'll do it tomorrow, I'll take you to drink for my brother today, and I'll take you to meet some friends by the way. ”
Yang Ming's friend must not be an ordinary person. Although he is a prince, he has too little contact with the nobles in Xijing City, and he must establish his own interpersonal circle, which is much more convenient for him to do anything in the future. Thinking of this, Yang Yun was no longer hypocritical, so he decided to change his plan and go with Yang Ming to have a look.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Okay then! I'll go with the royal brother to have a look, but I won't get on the sedan chair, my body is weak, and I need to exercise more. ”
"Actually, I don't like this thing either, I still like the feeling of galloping horses, but the capital is not allowed to ride horses and gallop. Since the thirteenth brother has Yaxing, I will also accompany you for a walk! As Yang Ming spoke, he lifted the sedan curtain and walked down.
came to Yang Yun's side and saw Yan Qin and Liu Yue beside Yang Yun. Yang Ming smiled and said, "Good luck for the old thirteen!" Where to find two stunning beautiful women, accompanied by beauties, no wonder they are willing to walk. ”
The group walked all the way, and after a short time, they came to a mansion that looked more magnificent. Yang Yun looked up and saw a few big characters written on the plaque outside the mansion gate, "General Zuo Wuwei's Mansion".
When everyone came to the door, there was already a sturdy man in his thirties, who came out with a group of people.
"Xia Guan has seen King Sheng, and he has seen His Highness the Thirteen!" The man led everyone to Yang Ming and the others, and said respectfully.
"You kid, why are you so polite? Old Thirteen, let me introduce to you, this is Chen Lisheng, the general of Zuo Wuwei, and we have lived and died together on the battlefield. Yang Ming obviously had a good relationship with these people, and said with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Ming introduced the rest of the people to Yang Yun, but because there were more people, Yang Yun only remembered two or three people. Yunlu general Zheng De, Huangmen Lang Li Feng and left guard Zhonglang general Cao Yuquan.
From Yang Ming's introduction, it is not difficult to see that these people have a very good relationship with Yang Ming. What Yang Yun didn't understand was why Yang Ming dragged himself into his circle of friends.
Chen Lisheng welcomed the two brothers into a garden, where a feast had already been set up. The two princes were welcomed into their seats, and then they took their seats.
Most of these people were born in the military, and they are obviously very familiar with each other, so there is a lot less restraint due to different identities and official positions, and the atmosphere in the venue is very relaxed.
"Thirteenth brother, as the prince, many of us respect us and are very polite to us, so we also have to make a high-minded appearance, feeling like we are wearing a mask at all times. But who knows how much we crave to be friends who can really have a good drink! Yang Ming's tone was a little low, but after a pause, his tone became high again.
"Of all the princes, I am the luckiest, because I have this group of brothers who have experienced the storm together in the bloody storm. It was only with my brothers that I was able to put down my mask and really enjoy my drink. After saying this, Yang Ming stood up and raised the wine bottle.
"Brothers, I respect everyone!" Yang Ming's words were obviously very contagious, raising the atmosphere on the field.
Yang Yun looked at his Fifth Emperor Brother, and his heart was full of respect. In this hierarchical society, as a prince, the emperor is a prince, it is indeed very rare to be able to do this. No wonder he often wins battles and has such a high reputation among civil and military officials.
