Chapter Seventy-Five: Drinking Deer Blood
"Bring the knife!"
Outside the gate of the dormitory, a sturdy wild deer was constantly struggling, but under the strong detention of several soldiers, the posture of galloping in the mountains and forests in the past was extremely weak, and the slender hind leg was wounded by an arrow, which was shot by Li Ke, the third son of the emperor, with a strong bow.
His Majesty the Emperor had unusually majestic hair, sleeves tucked up at his elbows, eyes fixed on the chest of the wild deer, and his white fur was unusually soft, much thicker than in spring and summer.
His right hand clenched the dagger handed by the eunuch.
The handle of the dagger is made of gold, and the tip is decorated with a sparkling ruby the size of a quail egg, and the blade is made of stainless steel, and the hair is blown off.
"Your Majesty, although the blood of the wild deer is precious, it is unseemly for you to take the blood yourself!" Empress Eldest Sun frowned.
The emperor did not act wantonly, but needed to pay attention to etiquette, which was especially important for Li Shimin, who aspired to become a Ming monarch.
Those who ignore the rules are faint!
If the other concubines had spoken like this, Li Shimin would have sent her into the cold palace a long time ago. But now that it was the queen who was stopped, Li Shimin had to be patient, put the dagger back into the scabbard, and said slowly: "Guanyin, my father was seriously injured by the assassination, and now he needs deer blood into medicine. ”
"Besides, the crow still has the righteousness of feeding, and the lamb also has the grace of kneeling to the milk, and a certain is an example for all the people, how can he be wrong again and again!"
Hearing this, the eldest grandson shook his head and sighed, and took a step back in agreement.
After the change of Xuanwumen, Li Shimin has been nailed to the pillar of shame, even if future generations look up to Tang Taizong, even if there are countless achievements of Zhenguan Shengshi to praise, but the stain that has long been can't be cleaned!
What's more, at this time, Li Shimin had just inherited the throne, and the situation was not stable, there was no feat of exterminating the Turks, and there was no halo blessing of the people's wealth, etc., and the stains on his body were particularly distinct.
He has been hacked into the people!
The four soldiers each grabbed the bound limbs of the wild deer, and the snow-white belly was completely exposed to the sun, and the dagger that shone with a dazzling light finally pierced the heart of the wild deer.
For a while, the wild deer screamed, but after a few convulsions, it was completely out of breath. The white and soft fur of the deer's chest was also dyed bright red by the gushing blood.
The soldiers also turned the carcass of the wild deer around, allowing the blood of the heart to flow into the silver basin on the floor.
Traditional Chinese medicine has always believed in supplementing form with form, such as looking for tiger whips and dog whips for yang deficiency......
Soon, Li Shimin walked into the palace of the Emperor Taishang again with a bowl of deer blood in a jade bowl, the jasper-colored jade bowl was filled with crystal clear fresh blood, and even steamed.
When he passed the steps, his footsteps faltered, shook his head slightly, and then stepped up again, bent down and handed the jade bowl over, and said softly: "Father, this is the blood of the wild deer, and it is very good for the injury...... Father, you can drink it while it's hot. ”
Li Yuan's voice stopped, and when he turned his head and saw the deer blood in the jade bowl, his heart jumped, obediently, this is raw blood, how many germs are in it? Parasite?
After drinking it, the diarrhea is light, in case you get dysentery......
Where did he go up to cry.
As for Li Shimin's filial piety, even though it is commendable...... And he is not a ruthless person, he will be somewhat moved, but it does not mean that he is joking with his own life, the treatment of dysentery in this era is a big problem, and the golden finger gave him a life span but did not give him a King Kong incorruptible body.
"Shimin, forget it, the poor Dao's body knows it by itself, hey!" Li Yuan glanced up at the jade bowl, and the smell of deer blood went straight to his nose, making him want to vomit in disgust, and hurriedly waved his hand to refuse.
Health problems are still on the side, even the smell of blood he can't drink. If he really let him drink it, it would be better for Li Shimin to kill his dear father now.
I also began to complain a little about Li Ke and Sun Simiao, one coincidentally caught a wild deer by hunting, and the other wanted to use deer blood as medicine.
Deer blood is a precious Chinese medicine, and it has been a treasure for court nobles and dignitaries to treat diseases and keep fit since ancient times.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the prescription prescribed by Sun Simiao, but Li Yuan is used to thinking about things with the thinking of later generations, coupled with the resistance of his taste buds, he naturally does not want to drink raw deer blood.
"Grandpa Huang, good medicine is good for disease, so you can drink this deer blood...... When Chengqian was sick, he didn't want to drink medicine, but the queen mother even coaxed and deceived her, and added caramel to the medicinal soup before drinking it......" Li Chengqian persuaded him, and asked the eunuch beside him for a few pieces of light brown starch candy, which were placed on the wooden table in the jade bowl.
It can be seen that Li Chengqian is also a person who loves sugar very much, otherwise he would not always prepare caramel for consumption.
"Sugared ......" Li Yuan's face twitched a few times, it was raw deer blood, and he had to add sugar to drink, could he still drink that thing? Do you want to add some coriander and serve with some oil and spicy seeds......
I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet!
Li Yuan finally had a feeling of self-inflicted suffering, in order to avoid the influence of Luo Yi's "Qingjun side", so he used the bitter trick of being assassinated and injured to let him avoid this crisis.
The plan was perfect, all the steps were interlocked, and now only the final part of drinking the deer's blood remained.
This step is the hardest, but also the easiest, just raise your head and drink.
But at this moment, the emperor's heart is struggling hard, whether to drink or not, if you drink, you can't pass the level in your heart, if you don't drink, look at this formation, it is possible to knock him out and pour it in.
Of course, the second half of the sentence is a joke, who dares to really beat the emperor?
"Sue your parents, hanging" in "Tang Law Discussion". "Kissing and hiding" are all behaviors advocated by the government, and Guo Ju'er in the twenty-four filial pieties is not talking.
The folk are still like this, not to mention the royal family who pays the most attention to "filial piety"!
"Grandpa Huang, although the blood of the raw deer is more fishy, this is what Ke'er personally hunted today......" Li Ke also looked at the Emperor Taishang with blank eyes.
He has a relatively intimate relationship with the Emperor, since the last time he ate braised fish, although he is busy with his homework as a prince, he can always spare a few days in January to go to Cuihua Mountain to visit the Emperor Taishang, a lonely old man.
Li Shimin looked at his two sons with satisfaction, who said that the heavenly family has no family affection, look at the prince and the third son, how deferential and filial to the emperor one by one, he said to Li Yuan with emotion: "Father, the son and grandson feed you personally, you can't let the emperor and grandson be beautiful in the front ......"
"Your Majesty (Father) is wise!" The concubines, princes, and princesses present echoed in unison.
After that, Li Shimin took out the jade bowl from the wooden table held in his hand, thoughtfully added a few caramel given by Li Chengqian, stirred it with a silver spoon, and sent the silver spoon full of deer blood to the mouth of the Emperor Taishang.
Li Yuan: "......"
