"If you don't go out for a few days, why are there so many people here in the Confucius Temple all of a sudden?" At this time, on Gongyuan Street in the north of Qinhuai River in the capital, Zhu Xiancai lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the crowded street in front of him with a little surprise.

"Oops, I forgot, I shouldn't have taken you down this street today." Luo Yi patted his head and said, "You forgot? Now it is late July, and there is another half a month before the township test, and the Xiucai from all the prefectures of Zhili have come to the capital to wait for the township test. ”

"On the right side of the Confucius Temple is the Tribute Courtyard, and the talents are willing to live near here; They also have to check the Di newspaper, communicate with each other, and figure out where this year's policy topic will be, so they will naturally eat and chat at the inns and restaurants near the Confucius Temple, where there are naturally many people. ”

"It's late July, and I can't remember the time until I go out." Zhu Xiancai said: "Since this road is so crowded, let's take another road." ”

Zhu Xiancai married Luo Yi on the ninth day of March, and originally decided to return to the southwest if she was not pregnant after staying in the capital for more than a month; She is not pregnant, so she plans to ask Yoon-hee to resign; But in mid-April, before they asked Yunxi to leave Beijing, the news of Yunlan's pregnancy suddenly came.

As soon as the news came, the Yang family and the palace were very happy, and Zhu Xiancai was also happy for her and sent a congratulatory gift; But a few days later, when she asked to resign, she was rejected by Yunxi.

"Sister Xiancai, you have excellent medical skills, and you are a woman, if there is anything wrong with Miaojin or Yunlan, it is much more convenient than the imperial doctor to treat the disease, you will stay in the capital during this time and take the pulse of Yunlan. Brother Huang, please stay in the capital for a few more months. Yun Xi said.

Yun Xi said so, how can Zhu Xiancai answer? I can only promise. lived a day when he entered the palace once every ten days, and the Anqiu County Lord's Mansion and the palace were two o'clock and one line.

At other times, she naturally couldn't be idle, and wanted to go out of the house to treat the sick in the capital; But Luo Yi was reluctant to get up. When he was in the southwest, the local ethnic social atmosphere was not as conservative as Daming, both men and women could go out generously, and it was very common for unmarried men and women to complain to each other in public, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhu Xiancai showing up in the village; But the capital is different, young women rarely go out, and even when they do, as long as they are not too poor, they are all wearing hats or veils, Luo Yi does not want his wife to go out to see patients.

But he couldn't persuade Zhu Xiancai, so in order to prevent his wife from going out of the house to meditate, he decided to ask the imperial doctor from the Tai Hospital to come to the house in turn to teach them the medical skills of the husband and wife to pass the time; But Zhu Xiancai still wanted to go out of the house, and finally decided to go out of the house twice a month to see patients in a medical hall north of the Confucius Temple.

After entering June, because the weather was getting hotter and hotter, Zhu Xiancai couldn't stand going out and canceled the arrangement of going out to see a doctor. But this morning it rained heavily, and even after the sunny day, the weather was very cool, so I decided which hospital to go to to see the patient. As a result, because Luo Yi hadn't been out of the house for many days, he forgot that the township test was about to be held and took this crowded road.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Luo Yi said: "The roads near the Confucius Temple are crowded every time they take the township test and the meeting test, and if you want to avoid it, you have to go around a long way; And we're already in the area, and it's not easy to go back. I had to keep going. ”

"Then let's keep walking, but you must be careful next time you go out of the house, you can't go this way." Zhu Xiancai said.

Luo Yi agreed and asked the coachman to continue to drive to the hospital.

After a while, they finally squeezed through the most crowded road and came to the back door of the backyard of the medical hall. Luo Yi and the accompanying guards breathed a sigh of relief and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from their foreheads. Luo Yi took out another kettle and drank half a pot of water, and ordered a guard to call the door.

The guard agreed, and stepped forward to knock on the door. After knocking for a while, someone opened the door, and saw that it was the guards of the Anqiu County Lord's Mansion who hurriedly opened the door completely and welcomed Zhu Xiancai to come.

Zhu Xiancai got off the carriage with the support of the maid and said to Luo Yi: "Although it is cooler today because of the rain, it is July after all, and it is still a little hot in the house, so you don't have to wait for me in the hospital, just go to a cool place and wait." ”

"How's that going to work? I don't feel at ease without looking at you personally. Luo Yi replied immediately.

Hearing his answer, Zhu Xiancai was of course happy, but still said: "With Xing'er and Xin'er with me, what can happen to me?" And the patients also knew who I was, and even when I was seen by them, they were afraid to do anything. ”

"You go to a cool place to rest, and arrange for a guard to wait in the infirmary." She deliberately said again: "What, do you want to get sick from the fever, let me come to treat you and deliberately tire me?" ”

"How could this be!" Luo Yi heard her say this and knew that she was sincere, so he agreed: "Then I will arrange for Xiao Li to wait here." ”

"Okay." Zhu Xiancai agreed, and walked into the hospital with the maid.

Seeing her go in, Luo Yi asked the guard called Xiao Li to follow suit, and he had to tell the coachman to go to the place where the carriage was stored.

But just before his words came out, he suddenly heard someone say, "Luo Yi, why are you here?" ”

"Your Majesty," Luo Yi almost said the identity of this person, and finally swallowed back the words that were about to blurt out without finishing speaking, and hurriedly dismounted and walked over and said, "I've seen Sun Gongzi." ”

"What are you polite to me," Yun Xi, who was guarded by the guards, smiled, "You should call me brother-in-law." ”

"Brother-in-law." Luo Yi hurriedly said.

"That's right, since we are relatives, of course we have to call it that." Yun Xi said with a smile, then pointed to the medical hall and said, "What are you doing in this place?" ”

"Brother-in-law, although Anqiu (with a title as a pronoun) stayed in the capital, she is an idle character, in addition to letting the imperial doctor teach, she also has to go out of the house to see people, twice a month. I chose this medical center. Luo Yi said.

"Oh," Yun Xi also remembered when he said this, and Jin Yiwei had reported it to him, but it was not important to him that this matter was important to him, so he forgot about it; At this time, I was reminded to remember.

"Xiancai is worthy of being a model for my Ming clan, always keeping the people in mind and treating the people for the people." Yun Xi saw that there were no outsiders nearby at this time, and said in the emperor's tone: "Luo Yi, I will reward you with a set of newly made jewelry made by the officials and supervisors in the palace, a hundred taels of gold, and two high-quality Hequ horses as mounts." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the favor." Luo Yi bowed with joy on his face. Jewelry and gold are of little use, and neither of them is a lover of money, and now the money in their hands is enough to buy medicinal herbs from the mountain people after returning to the southwest, but they are happy to get two horses. This is the best horse produced by Daming himself, and even Yun Xi rides a river meandering horse on weekdays, so he is naturally happy to be given one.

"Luo Yi, how long will Xiancai be in it?" Yun Xi asked again.

"About two hours, wait until it gets dark and leave the hospital and rush back to the house. However, if the last patient before leaving is very difficult to diagnose and treat, it will be delayed for a while. But I'll definitely be back before the curfew. ”

"She's here to see her sick for two hours, and you're waiting for her here for two hours?"

"Naturally, this will not be, I will ask for an upper room in the inn nearby where the carriage can be stored, and wait for her to return home together after the treatment."

"You've been waiting for her for two hours." Yun Xi shook his head and said, "You've already caught up with the person who is shopping with your girlfriend." ”

"What did you say, Your Majesty?" Luo Yi asked. Yun Xi's voice was very low just now, and he didn't hear it clearly.

"It's nothing," Yun Xi said perfunctorily, and then said, "Since you met me today, you should follow me and don't wait for her here." As he spoke, he instructed the guards of the Anqiu County Lord's Mansion to move his horse over.

Since Yun Xi ordered this, Luo Yi didn't dare to disobey, and there was a trace of joy in his heart that he didn't have to wait in the inn, so he saluted Yun Xi and turned over and mounted his horse behind him.

Yun Hee took him and walked slowly down the street under the escort of the guards. But what made Luo Yi strange was that he guessed that Yun Xi had come to Confucius Temple to have a look because he was about to hold a township test recently, but Yun Xi did not go to the most lively street, and turned around on the road with fewer pedestrians; And I don't walk into any inns, restaurants, or shops.

But he didn't dare to ask, so he could only follow behind Yun Xi with a puzzled look on his face.

How did he know that after remembering that there were still a few people in the capital who were suspected of being White Lotus Sectists, on the one hand, he ordered the Jinyi guards lurking in the palace of King Zhou to send someone to inform him every time they let Tang Jingyu and the others take a break or send them out of the mansion on a business trip, but he still didn't dare to take it lightly: who knows if there are other people lurking in the capital who intend to rebel? Therefore, if you can take a carriage on the way out, you can take a carriage, and if you can't take a carriage, let the guards protect yourself in four directions, and at the same time do not go to the crowded streets, and the shops on the street do not go in unless they reveal their identities and clear the scene, so as to avoid danger. The son of a daughter does not sit in the hall, and he cannot risk his life to go out.

This time, he went out of the palace and came to the vicinity of the Confucius Temple, which was indeed as Luo Yi guessed, because of the upcoming township test, he could not take a car and could only ride a horse, but he also paid great attention to protecting his life.

Yun Xi walked around the Confucius Temple a few times like this, seeing that the sun was getting hotter and hotter, and he was going to sweat even if he was still, so he planned to go back to the palace, anyway, he just came to have a look, and there was no specific goal.

He was about to say a few words to Luo Yi, when he happened to pass by the door of an inn, and suddenly five or six people came out of it. The guards at the front of the horse kept an eye on the pedestrians on both sides of the road, and for a moment they were not aware and almost ran into the man who came out of the inn. "Phew! Sigh! The guards hurriedly pulled the reins, and managed to avoid them.

"You don't have eyes when you ride a horse!" One of them was closest to the horse, and he could hear the horse's panting, and he scolded when he was upset.

"How can you talk!" The guard's temper was not very good, because the guard could only reluctantly speak to the emperor.

"You ......" This person is probably still a person with status, and when he heard the guard's words, he was even more angry, and he was about to reprimand, but before his words could be spoken, the face of a person next to him suddenly changed greatly, and he whispered something in his ear. The man's face changed, and he put down his hand pointing at the guard, and said no more, but turned to leave.

"What's going on? I think he seems to be scolding, why don't you scold again? The guard was wondering when he heard a voice behind him: "Because he recognizes your identity." The voice then said loudly: "Xiao Zhuo! ”

"The villain is here!" The man who was talking in the ear of the man who was almost hit heard this cry, hurriedly turned his head, trotted to the guard, and said to the man behind the guard, "The villain has seen Childe. ”

"Xiao Zhuo, what are you doing here?" Yun Xi thought for a while and said, "I remember that you still have a talent and fame on you, so you want to participate in Ying Tianfu's township exam?" ”

"No, no, this son remembers that your hometown is Ningbo, Zhejiang, even if you take the township test, you must be in Hangzhou."

This person is naturally Xiao Zhuo, a big businessman who was licensed by Yunxi to sell Nanyang people in the capital. Since he and the Siamese merchant Zheng Pai obtained Yun Xi's charter, he has been stationed in the capital to take care of the capital's business, and rarely goes to Shanghai to buy the company.

When he heard Yun Xi's question at this time, his heart tightened, and he immediately bowed down and said: "Sun Gongzi, although the villain still has a talent and fame, but the Four Books and Five Classics have long been forgotten, how can he participate in the township test, not to mention that the villain's hometown in Zhejiang cannot participate in the capital." ”

"The villain came here today because there was a son of a merchant who met when he was doing business in Shanghai City and wanted to come to the capital to participate in the township test.

"But since this person is going to take the township test, I can't take him home, so I can only rent a room in an inn near the Confucius Temple for him to live in, and come to see him every few days and ask what he needs. So the villain is here at this time. ”
