Chapter 605: Cao Cao's Plea for Help (Part II)
"Hehe, Cao Cao really asked me for help?"
Gongsun Du played with the jade pendant in his hand, and there seemed to be a smile on his face.
In fact, he also had a similar jade pendant in his hand, but it was not carried with him like Cao Cao, but he was still in a wooden box in his study.
"That's it!"
Without thinking too much, Gongsun Du sighed and said, "Let that person in, I want to see what Cao Mengde's intentions are!" ”
Wang Feng was soon taken to the Qianqing Palace and bowed: "Wang Feng greets His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!" ”
The courtesy is thoughtful, but there is still nostalgia.
Gongsun Du frowned and said, "Cao Mengde, what do you want me to ask for help?" ”
Wang Feng immediately took out the letter.
After some examination, the contents of the letter were revealed in front of Gongsun Du's eyes.
"Hahaha, okay, I agreed, you can go down!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
Wang Feng wanted to retreat after speaking, but Gongsun Du stopped him: "Wait! ”
"You will also live under my rule in the future, so don't call it out as a great Ming, otherwise I will have the feeling that a foreign envoy has come to the court."
"This ......"
Wang Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
"Well, go ahead!"
Wang Feng retreated, Gongsun Du shook his head, and whispered: "What I did back then, in order to leave a way out, so as not to cut off my children and grandchildren, I can't use it, but you Cao Mengde can use it, hehe!" However, you are still really arrogant enough, even if you get to the point where you are now, you are just seeking a glimmer of life for your beloved son. ”
"Send an order to Dean Hua, let him try his best to treat Cao Chong, and if the medicine materials in the hospital are not enough, come to the treasury with my token to get it."
Gongsun Du said, took off the gold medal at his waist, and handed it to the eunuch beside him.
This gold medal was cast by Gongsun Du in imitation of later generations, and the inscription on it is-
I'm here!
Originally, I was just thinking about that...... Ahem, ahem, I didn't expect it to be used now.
But when Wang Feng left the palace, he remembered that he hadn't told him where he should go next, and he was hesitating whether to go back and ask, when an internal guard came to show him the way.
Qianqing Palace.
Gongsun Du sent Wang Feng away, continued to deal with government affairs, and at noon, after being reminded by the eunuch beside him, someone sent lunch.
After the meal, Gongsun Du thought about it, and did not continue to deal with government affairs, but gave an order, increased the garrison of the Qianqing Palace, and then left the palace with Dian Wei and rushed to the Tai Hospital.
Tai Hospital, formerly known as the hospital, was officially renamed Tai Hospital after Gongsun Du became emperor, but it did not prohibit ordinary people from seeking medical treatment, but the region was different. Hua Tuo is the president of Tai Hospital and the dean of the School of Medicine. Zhang Ji, a few years ago, Gongsun Du sent people to ...... cough cough cough ...... Please come back to the vice president.
When he came to the Tai Hospital, Dian Wei had already sent someone to inform him, and Gongsun Du got out of the carriage and headed to the destination under the leadership of the internal guard.
Gongsun Du came very coincidentally, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a person who looked like a child being poured a decoction. Regarded as an apprentice on duty. It is worth mentioning that there were no later nurses in Tai Hospital, only doctors and apprentices. Among them, most of the apprentices are the apprentices of various doctors, and there are also some outstanding talents from medical schools, which can be regarded as a kind of "internship".
Looking left and right, there are Hua Tuo, Zhang Ji, and several other doctors, Wang Feng and others are on the outermost periphery, if you don't observe carefully, I'm afraid you won't be able to find it for a while.
"Ahem"
Coughing lightly twice, attracting everyone's attention, Gongsun Du stepped in and said, "How is the situation?" ”
"Your Majesty!"
"No need to be polite!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Everyone got up, and Hua Tuo first explained: "This patient has been poisoned for a long time, and it has been a long time. ”
"Hmm!"
Gongsun Du nodded, put his eyes on Cao Chong, who had just drunk the medicine, and couldn't help but be surprised, and said: "I look at it, this son has a ruddy complexion, not like poisoning, but it is already cured?" ”
"Even if you don't win, it's not far away!"
Hua Tuo smiled and said: "After diagnosis and treatment, we first used acupuncture to force most of the toxins to the limbs and abdomen, and then led them out to stabilize the situation, and then supplemented with decoction to recuperate. It will take months to eradicate the residual poison. ”
After speaking, Hua Tuo pointed at Zhang Ji again and said: "This treatment, it is still Zhongjing's great efforts to have the current effect, otherwise it will take a lot more time." ”
Zhang Ji said modestly: "Brother Yuanhua praised it! Your Majesty should not hear of it. After a pause, he said: "Actually, when this person was sent, he had already taken medicine, and as long as he spent more time and supplemented with other medicines, he could already be cured." ”
"Haha! Zhong Jing doesn't need to be modest, he thinks that person is just a mistake, otherwise why would he have to travel thousands of miles to send him to the hospital! ”
When the words fell, Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji vaguely guessed the identity of the patient. Before, Gongsun Du's order was not mentioned, and Wang Feng and others were worried that someone would hate them and have an accident, so they didn't mention it.
Gongsun Du looked at it again, glanced at the two, and then left the room first. Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji explained and followed.
"When will this son wake up?" Gongsun Du asked again.
"You should be able to wake up tonight, by noon tomorrow." Hua Tuo pondered for a moment and replied.
Gongsun Du nodded, and after being under martial law ten steps away from Dian Wei, he said in a low voice: "This son is Cao Cao's beloved son, although he is a contradiction, but after all, he is still a child, so he also asks the two good students to take care of it, so that Meng De's heart of love for his son will not be in vain." ”
"Obey your orders!"
The two doctors are benevolent, and they will try their best to heal without Gongsun Du's advice, and now when they hear this, they have a little more respect for Gongsun Du.
Subsequently, Gongsun Du chatted with the two about Wu Pu, Fan A, Du Du and others, as well as the situation of the medical school, and then returned to the palace under the escort of Dian Wei.
Early the next morning, Gongsun Du got the news that Cao Chong had woken up, and considering the sudden change, he didn't go to the hospital again until the afternoon.
Why is Gongsun Du so polite to such a person?
One is mercy, and it is a pity that he dies after the year is not over; The second is the influence of the allusion of "Cao Chong called the elephant", he really wanted to meet this prodigy.
After meeting with Cao Chong, Gongsun Du found that he really lived up to the name of a prodigy, he was very knowledgeable, and he was not as bad as he was in his prime, and he was quite quick and wise, and he could draw inferences from one another.
When it was over, Gongsun Du asked him if he had any requirements, and replied: My nephew has a best friend, and I hope to see him.
Gongsun Du knew that his friend was fake, and he was afraid that it was true that he wanted to communicate with Cao Cao, so he didn't expose it, agreed, and asked him to contact him on his own, as long as his person appeared under his rule, he would send someone to answer Yunyun.
Sure enough, while Cao Chong sent a letter to Zhou Budo, he also sent a letter to Cao Cao.
According to the news sent back by Qiao Yanglou, Zhou Budo immediately packed his luggage and went north after receiving the letter, which made Gongsun Du feel quite admired for the depth of the relationship between the two!
But Cao Cao's behavior was strange, because he sent another son north. Judging from the news, Cao Cao was bumped into by Cao Zhi when he received the news from Cao Chong, so he asked to go north, but Cao Cao refused to allow it. Cao Zhi wanted to leave secretly and was prevented by it, but then for some reason, not only did Cao Zhi leave, but even Cao Zhi's wife and children were sent together.
If it were a different person, Gongsun Du would rather be beheaded directly halfway or put under house arrest, but Cao Zhi's name is too big, and he has always been a scribe, so he just makes people pay more attention, so he doesn't care about it.
Not mentioning when the two arrived, Gongsun Du mentioned the matter of the western expedition at the time of the morning of the day.
"Take the Western Regions in the west, and I will drive the expedition in person!"
Xun You, the head of the Wenchen, immediately stopped: "The empire is newly established, Your Majesty should take the central government as the priority, why should you personally take the risk?" ”
The six books of Shangshu also echoed: "Yes! Your Majesty's safety is related to the stability of the empire, and it is not appropriate to leave lightly! ”
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" The rest of the adults are also pleased.
Gongsun Du was not angry at all, but just pointed his hand in all directions and said, "Where do you think there is a sign of unrest now? Not at all! I am confident that all parts of the country are unusually stable, and there is no chance of turmoil! ”
"Are you worried about my safety? Let's see, did I sit here and wait? No! It was I who punched and kicked it down with my own hands! ”
"Or are you worried about the army of Cao Cao and others next year? In my opinion, if you don't even have the confidence to defend the place, then you might as well resign and go home, because you have failed the expectations of the millions of people in the empire, and you also look down on the bravery of the empire's million-strong army! ”
When the ministers heard this, they understood that Gongsun Du had made up his mind, so they had to say: "The ministers are guilty!" ”
"You are concerned about the empire, what is the crime? Don't get up yet! ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Everyone got up, and Xun You said again: "Your Majesty personally recruits, and also asks Your Majesty to order the crown prince to supervise the country, just in case." ”
Gongsun Du nodded and said, "Where is the prince?" ”
"Erchen is here!" Gongsun Yi came out of the ranks, and said.
"Half a month later, I will personally conquer the Western Regions, and I will hand over the important tasks to the crown prince, I hope not to live up to my expectations!"
"Sons obey orders!" Gongsun Yi bowed and said, "Erchen will handle it carefully at that time, so that everything will be done!" ”
Gongsun Du frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, just nodded, and then said: "Half a month later, Zhao Yun, the governor of the Western Army, led 50,000 Western troops, Wen Chou, the deputy governor of the Central Army, led 30,000 rear troops, and Lu Bu, the governor of the Eastern Army, led 40,000 Eastern troops to follow me west. All the materials needed must be prepared by the household department as soon as possible, and the Ministry of Industry must also be prepared. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
