Chapter 488 - A Proverb (2)
According to the panicked eunuch Zhang Wei, the prince was fine before he went to bed that night.
In the middle of the night, Shizi shouted several times in bed, but he couldn't really hear what he was shouting. He was sleeping on the bed under the prince, and was awakened by the shouting, and immediately got up and went to check. Seeing that Shizi was sleeping and his snort was even, he thought that Shizi had just had a nightmare and that there was no big problem, so he continued to sleep with confidence until dawn.
At the end of the hour, he was the first to wake up, and immediately prepared a face wash and a toothbrush according to the rules of the palace and the habits of the prince. Sui Shizi couldn't wake up, and when he touched his forehead, he panicked and went to ask Doctor Tang.
In addition, Zhang Wei also revealed a shocking secret to Shu Guoping and Sun Hong alone:
Before leaving, the prince had a fight with Miss Luo, and King Shiquan and Liao Fu asked the lord of Taiping County to persuade him. As an attendant eunuch, he was ordered to detect movements in the courtyard. Who knew that I heard the prince say to Miss Luo that in ten days, he would be straight and upright for people to carry back! Miss Luo scolded him for wanting to die and said such unlucky words.
It can be seen that the prince has already expected his own catastrophe. And Miss Luo's words show that she thinks Shizi is just a joke, and does not think that Shizi will really die.
Zhang Wei also said that the prince of the world is very strict, and whenever the prince talks to Miss Luo, the eunuchs and attendants are not allowed to approach and eavesdrop, and the violator will die with a rod.
He never dared to eavesdrop. It's just that the situation was very urgent that day, and the prince was furious, and called the guard Tashi Gerwa into the courtyard, and Tashi Gerwa almost killed Miss Luo by mistake.
He was also in the spirit of servant loyalty, so he risked his life to eavesdrop on it.
Now that the son of the world is in danger, once he loses, as the person who served that night, he will definitely die, so he dares to speak out desperately. Mr. Shu and Mr. Sun are the ministers of Shizi's trust, and they hope that when Shizi kills him in the future, they will plead for him for the sake of his loyalty to the Lord.
According to Tang Xiaozu, a depressed military doctor, after he was introduced into the inner house by the eunuchs, he immediately carried out the "four diagnoses", that is, looking, smelling, asking, and cutting.
Shizi's face is like gold and purple, his tongue is red and thick, and his expression is serene; Looking at the pupils, they are shaped like needles, which is breathtaking; Probing the nose, the tip of the nose is red, and the snort is burning; Entering the clothes, the body temperature is extremely high, and there is even a burning feeling.
The handle cuts the pulse, and the pulse is extremely strange. To judge whether the pulse is normal, the cover is based on the pulsation, ups and downs, delays, gentleness, strength, evenness, and rhythm, but the pulse of the son of the world is different, every few breaths, there is a strong surge of qi and blood, relax the blood vessels, and quickly swim throughout the body.
Tang Xiaozu has been practicing medicine for more than 50 years and has never seen such a pulse. When asked the military doctors, there were also different opinions, and they insisted on their own words. HE PRELIMINARILY JUDGED THAT HE WAS A YOUNG MAN WITH STRONG BLOOD AND QI, AND BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT HE WAS ANGRY IN HIS CHEST, HE COULD NOT RELEASE IT COMPLETELY, SO HIS QI AND BLOOD WERE OPEN, BLOCKING THE MERIDIANS AND CAUSING ILLNESS. As for why it is a fever and not a cold, we must also look for the cause from the age of the son.
However, some other healers have different opinions. One of them declared that the dragon species of the world is naturally different from ordinary people. Use the method of a doctor to heal the dragon, and there will be a big mess!
Because he couldn't diagnose it, Doctor Tang didn't dare to use medicine indiscriminately, so he had to use the cold spring cooling method first, so that the body temperature of the prince could be lowered, so as not to burn out his brain. He also suggested that his master, Li Liangyi, be invited to come quickly. However, where Li Liangyi is now, and whether he followed Miss Luo back to Chengdu, he doesn't know.
According to another soldier of the guard battalion who was on duty outside the door of Shizi's room, he was drowsy that night, when he suddenly heard Shizi shouting a woman in the room, whose name was "Eighth Sister", and shouted several times.
When the guard heard Shizi call Eighth Sister, he suddenly fell asleep.
Because at the time of the changing of the guard, he asked the comrades who were handed over according to the rules. The comrades-in-arms clearly replied that there were only two people in Shizi's room, Shizi and Zhang Wei, and there was no third person. But then there was no movement in the room, and everything was as usual. So he took the liberty of speculating that this woman might be the son of the world
of a sweetheart. Thinking about it during the day and dreaming about it at night, that's probably what it is.
……
All news about Shizi's condition was carefully blocked by several ministers. Although they were anxious, they also knew that they had to be calm at this time.
They quietly got together and discussed three things:
First, how can you make the son alive again?
Second, who is the "eighth sister" in the mouth of the prince? Is she the root of the child's illness? Find this eighth sister, can you let the prince of medicine get rid of the disease?
Third, during the illness of the prince, how did the Protector Army act? Will he continue to carry out the task of purging and suppressing, or will the class return to the dynasty to wait for the recovery of the son?
Of course, there is another, bigger question on everyone's mind:
Once the son of the world is unexpected, the second prince of Chengdu ascends the palace in order. The future of the Protector Army, their own future, and the great cause of "protecting the country and the people, and the peace of the world" of the son...... I feel my heart palpitate when I think about it.
When discussing such a major matter, it is natural to choose a leading principal.
Among the ministers, the highest official position was Gan Liangchen, the governor of the Houjun Prefecture, the former general army of northern Sichuan, and the deputy commander of the brigade-level military region of the National Protector Army. But he was removed from his post not long ago, and now he has a position and no power. And Gan Liangchen only joined the Protector Army, and he has not even received the salary of the Protector Army, so he is respected, and everyone is not satisfied. Eliminate.
The leader of the most troops was Jia Denglian, a general of the Chu Army and deputy brigade-level commander of the National Protector Army. But Jia Denglian has already said in a high-profile manner that he is not a guest general, Qiu Ba is one, just listen to orders.
Then the only ones who are qualified to be the principals of this are a few old men of the Protector Army.
Shu Guoping, Sun Hong, Cheng Xiangfeng and Tan Sigui. The first three are of the same rank, they are all in the main brigade, and they are all ministers of military aircraft, among which Shu Guoping and Sun Hong are even older. But among the two, Shu Guoping's position and identity are more prominent than Sun Hong.
Shu Guoping is the nephew of Master Shu and has a friendship with the son. After being put into the Shizifu, he first served as the supervisor of the first battalion of the caravan, and then changed to the chief of the caravan and the chief of the general staff. Most of the regimental and battalion-level generals of the Protector Army were old subordinates of him and the Song brothers, including Tan Sigui, the commander of the Third Regiment.
Although Shu Guoping has spoken out in many things, the prince's trust in him is still unparalleled. He has always held the power to transfer troops from the General Staff Headquarters, and this is a clear proof of this.
In contrast, when Sun Hong joined the Shu Palace, he was just a trainee copywriter with no job and no power. Before the reorganization of Songlin Mountain, Sun Hong's status had not been high. Even if he is now in the position of director of the army, he is only new.
But Sun Hong's foundation in the Protector Army is equally deep. For example, when many high-ranking generals from Bifengxia saw Sun Hong, they had to respectfully stop and bow their heads and shout "Mr. Sun".
In the end, the errand of this unlucky principal still fell on Shu Guoping's head, because Sun Hong was humble in public.
Shu Guoping, who was so anxious that the corners of his mouth were foaming, held an emergency meeting of cadres above the military camp in Wenchang Town in the afternoon of the same day, and eight decisions were made at the meeting:
1. The great cause of "protecting the country and the people, and maintaining peace in the world" initiated by the prince is in line with the way of heaven and conforms to the will of the people, and is a great cause with lasting vitality, and must not be abandoned halfway. Therefore, the Protector Army's conquest and suppression of various forces in northern Sichuan could not be stopped for a moment.
2. Quickly secretly find this "eighth sister" in Baoning Mansion, Shunqing Mansion, Tongchuan Prefecture, Chengdu Prefecture and even the whole province, maybe she is the reason for Shizi's illness. The key object is undoubtedly the girl surnamed Yue in the song and dance troupe;
3. Immediately and secretly escort the prince back to Boryeong for medical treatment as soon as possible. Within these days, all the preparations for treatment must be prepared in advance, especially famous doctors from all over the world, who must be invited. Please don't move, just tie it with a rope. The son of the world is unhindered, and he comes to the door to ask for sin; Something happened to the son, and they were all killed and buried.
Fourth, Miss Luo is the princess of Shu announced by the prince himself, and the prince is not there
, led by Miss Luo. This matter should be notified to Miss Luo as soon as possible, and let her sit in Baoning Mansion to preside over the overall situation.
5. Wangzhuang and all units of the National Protector Army in various parts of Sichuan were secretly notified to the regiment and battalion level. Let them tighten up inside and relax outside, and be vigilant against all reactionary forces taking advantage of the opportunity to counterattack.
Sixth, the troops of the Protector Army in Chengdu, Yazhou, and Jiading continued to maintain a state of mobilization, staring at the local tyrants and inferior gentry in Qiongmei. And Chongqing has already done it, so it has to do it desperately.
7. Do not notify the princess and the second prince for the time being, so as not to worry them too much. But if the son of the world still does not wake up after five days, he has no choice but to report it quickly.
8. As a precautionary measure, the troops of the National Protector Army in northern Sichuan set up a temporary former enemy committee headed by Shu Guoping, Sun Hong, and Cheng Xiangfeng to oversee all the troops of the National Protector Army in northern Sichuan.
This order was drafted by Cheng Xiangfeng, and after the consent of Shu Guoping, Sun Hong, and Cheng Xiangfeng, the decree was issued with the prince Jinbao.
If the prince wakes up and sees the matter or Miss Luo gives an order, this temporary former enemy committee will be automatically dissolved immediately. The three of them asked the prince for the crime of correction.
……
On the evening of 15 March, two tall pack horses were led out by the grief-stricken artillery battalion commander He Chengjun to bid farewell to the military generals gathered in the front yard of the Quan family's mansion.
On the backs of the two pack horses carried a makeshift covered bed made of wooden frames and tarpaulins, the beds were covered with thick quilts and the roof was stretched with tarpaulins.
Zhu Pingjian, the son of Shu, was placed on the bed on his back and covered with the flag of the prince of Panlong. His eyes were closed, his expression was serene, and his breath was even. Except for his face being a little yellow, the rest seemed to be fine.
Shu Guoping, Sun Hong, Cheng Xiangfeng, and Zhang Wei tied the prince's body with brocade to prevent him from falling off the cliff on the road.
As the sun sets, the horses neigh.
The ministers knelt and wept, as if they were parting with life and death.
Sun Hong was so angry that he touched the ground with his head, so much so that he fainted on the spot; Jaden was in a hurry, and after going out, he personally slashed a soldier who violated the military order and made a loud noise.
In the middle of the night of 15 March, the main forces of the guard battalion and the 4th battalion, which were tasked with escorting troops, ventured through the 70-mile mountain road at the speed of a forced march and took control of Qiping Town, Cangxi County, a land and water wharf on the edge of Langshui on the morning of the second day (Note 1).
Here, the avant-garde of the guard battalion has already forcibly requisitioned several wooden boats.
The soldiers transferred Shu Shizi to a slightly larger boat, and the copywriter Li Changxiang, the doctor Tang Xiaozu, the Taiping county lord and the eunuch and other attendants also got on the boat. Some soldiers of the Guard Battalion and the 4th Battalion boarded several other boats and accompanied them to Boryeong Province, while the remaining soldiers continued to control the town of Gipyeong, searched the surrounding cordon, occupied key points, and covered the retreat of the 3rd and 14th Regiments.
The guard battalion had horses, and they rode to escort them on the left bank of the East River. In the event of an incident, the ship can quickly dock and be supported by the guard battalion.
Push the boat along the water, and the boat is very fast.
The fleet passed through Dahucheng and arrived safely in Boryeong late that night. The prince was immediately secretly transferred to the line in the Shouwang Mansion. There, Miss Luo, who is said to have left Baoning Mansion and returned to Chengdu, is waiting outside the alley with a gray face and tears in her eyes.
Behind her, of course, there were many others. Just three people stand out in particular:
One is the good doctor Zheng Li Liangde, with a crane hair and a childish face, like a fairy.
The other is a young girl, wearing a well-cut waist-length short military uniform of the National Protector Army, but wearing a hip-binding skirt on the lower body, with a delicate face and gentle temperament, a fairy-like sister. But between her eyebrows, there was not only sadness that could not be concealed, but also faint fear and uneasiness.
And the last one is the non-commissioned officer of the guard battalion and the former Zagu baby who is unsheathed with the sword out of the sheath and closely guards the girl's side: Tashi Gwa.
Note 1: The big town of Cangxi County, which was Qiping County in the Song Dynasty.
